I Build a Base in a Disaster Game With My Zoo

Song Ning transmigrated into a game world as an insignificant passerby, a gaunt orphan girl who depended on her neighbor and the neighbor's daughter-in-law for survival.

After an accident, the three of them had no choice but to flee into the mountains, only to be caught in a massive earthquake. They were about to die.

At the brink of death, Song Ning's System finally arrived:

[Ding! You are now bound to the Zoo Management Simulator System!]

[Level One Disaster approaching! Checking zoo level... Current level: 1. Defense available!]

[Defense successful!]

With the System's help, Song Ning escaped death.

But with no clothes or food, it was only a matter of time before they starved or froze to death.

Song Ning: What good is this zoo to me?

[Ding! The Disaster Survival Game System has been activated!]

[Congratulations! You survived a Level One Disaster!]

[Opening your reward... Congratulations, you've received a spiritual field! (Production speed +300%, yield +300%)]

[Seven days until the next disaster!]

[Give it everything you've got, then stay alive!]

Song Ning: !!!

So she'd bound not to one System, but two!

The Disaster Survival Game System was the same game she'd played in her previous life, a global sensation known for its extreme difficulty, which no one had ever managed to beat!

The game ranked disasters from Level One to Level Ten.

Droughts, floods, plagues, locust swarms, and all kinds of natural disasters kept coming.

There were also the tremendous pressures of war breaking out everywhere, famine, and barbarian invasions.

A player's life could be snuffed out in minutes.

Even the best reward or divine artifact couldn't protect you from the game's lethal blows.

But...

The Level One Zoo System could withstand Level One disasters without suffering any damage or other effects.

As long as she worked hard to level up, the zoo's defenses would grow stronger and its area would expand.

She could even establish branch parks to shelter people in different places!

What shocked Song Ning most was that the rewards from the disaster game could also become her cheats!

With this spiritual field, wouldn't she be able to solve the problem of getting enough to eat?

Song Ning: ...My zoo really is useful!

She had to manage her zoo properly and make it bigger and stronger!

-

What was the world like during a disastrous age?

Crying, despair, or furious, unwilling roars?

But at the Wanshan Wildlife Park, there was none of that. Everyone's face was full of hope.

The refugees had been so hungry they'd eaten tree bark, but here they could enjoy a steaming hot boxed meal with meat, vegetables, and soup...

Women and children had barely enough cloth to cover themselves, but here they could wear comfortable, breathable cotton and linen outfits...

People who had endured every kind of hardship had hoped only for a tattered straw mat to sleep on, but here they had clean, soft beds and quilts, with no need to fear wild beasts...

Even the most terrifying disasters were held firmly outside the zoo!

And all they had to do was complete the director's tasks and earn work points to exchange for everything they needed!

Refugees: !!!

They had to do whatever it took to stay!

-

Song Ning's dream was to lie flat.

A very, very long time later, she finally achieved it.

[Level Nine Disaster approaching: 5, 4, 3, 2, 1...]

[Stay alive!]

Once the zoo reached max level and its branches had spread across the entire world, disasters became a mere drizzle.

The countdown no longer meant anything, and disaster days turned into new holidays.

At that moment, she was dozing on a giant panda while a red panda fanned her with its fluffy tail.

Beavers and otters played in the water, sometimes bringing her silver fish or shells as little gifts.

The big cats curled up at her feet, purring contentedly whenever she stroked them.

Song Ning stretched and raised a hand. Colorful birds chirped as they flew to her fingertips.

A falcon perched proudly on her shoulder, its exclusive seat.

From halfway up the mountain, the cafeteria's lunchtime announcement could already be heard in the distance.

"Lunch today is braised pork, fish-fragrant shredded pork, and chilled noodles with shredded chicken! Hand-stirred brown sugar jelly is also available in limited quantities!"

Song Ning sprang up in a flash and patted the black-and-white panda beneath her.

"Come on, let's go eat!"
