A Thatched Hut from the Start

[This book is on hiatus, with no set return date] [Blurb] Li Xi was reborn. Only after her death did she learn that she was a disposable female side character in a mindless apocalypse novel, secretly set up by the jealous, love-addled female lead who had transmigrated into the book, and left to die horribly among a horde of zombies. When she opened her eyes again, she found herself back three years in the past, bound to a Savior System that claimed to be the apocalypse's last hope. The System told her that the original novel had been abandoned by its author, and that the world would ultimately reach a bad ending: humanity would lose. As the key to correcting the world's trajectory, it would work with her and had also prepared an enormous golden finger for her: the most powerful survivor base of the future apocalypse... A drafty little thatched hut! Li Xi: "..." [Blurb 2] The base won't be officially established for several more years. In the meantime, Li Xi slings a pack over her shoulder and takes up the banner of the working class, heading to the front lines to fight for her life against zombies and earn the resources needed to upgrade the base. At first, however, she's only a minor healer with a useless System and barely any offensive ability. From the start, she and two kind strangers who had repaid her for a meal are chased by zombies. Later, when danger strikes and life and death hang in the balance, the person who had always been protected at the center of the group suddenly lifts a giant hammer she'd picked up somewhere. The next second, she charges straight into the zombie horde and bats the Zombie King aside... Everyone: "Holy crap?!" A powerhouse was right beside us all along?! [Blurb 3] Members of a base in the western apocalypse hear that a ruthless gang has risen in the southeast. They'll fleece anyone they meet, leaving nothing behind wherever they go. The people in the gang are cunning and vicious, and their notoriety has spread to several nearby bases. Today, Wang Er is unlucky enough to run into them. "Y-You, don't come any closer! If you push me too far, I'll do anything!" he says, trying to sound tough. Then he sees the woman at the head of the gang, the infamous, cold-blooded female leader. She slowly looks up at him, her tone full of disdain and derision. "Then make us a portion of liangpi. You're not leaving until you do." Wang Er: "!!!" She's every bit as ruthless as they say!
