Li Ya transmigrates into an apocalypse novel, becoming a cannon-fodder male supporting character with the same name as the original.
As a cannon-fodder male supporting character who wants to survive, the original decides to cling to the villain's coattails. He keeps bringing warmth to the future Zombie King, who is now a little zombie, and vows to become the beloved person the Zombie King would never hurt, even if he destroyed the world.
Faced with a future where the Zombie King evolves and all the human bases collapse, Li Ya stands still and thinks for three minutes.
Then he smashes open the head of the little zombie in the middle of evolving with a hammer.
He digs out the core and swallows it.
Relying on heaven, earth, or your ancestors does not make you a true hero.
Forget being someone's beloved. Become the Zombie King yourself!
Just as everything is ready and he is about to lie back and do nothing, he suddenly discovers...
The little zombie isn't dead.
Along with the core he swallowed, it has taken up residence in Li Ya's brain.

That night, Li Ya is dragged into the depths of his own consciousness. He sees a man seated high atop a throne built from millions of skeletons, resting his cheek on one hand, his deep red eyes revealing a searing malice.
"How was my core? Tasty?"
Li Ya swallows. "...Pretty sweet?"
Hellfire blossoms inside his mind.
The man grips Li Ya by the waist, forcing him to watch the most beautiful fireworks in the world.
Theme: Relying on yourself is better than relying on heaven, earth, or anyone else. Making your own way is best!
