"The problematic rainwater can significantly enhance the combat abilities of zombies, but it also amplifies their bloodlust, with severe side effects," Si frowned.
"What about the male lead's situation?" Le Xiaowei rubbed her nose, completely abandoning the idea of exposing herself to the rain.
"Well, a few of his harem members got drenched. One of them is currently going berserk. According to the male lead's system, if he... ahem... 'comforts' the frenzied female zombie, it’ll calm her down and even boost his own strength," Si said, sounding exasperated but also somewhat resigned.
Typical novel logic—where any drug or power-up side effects inevitably lead to romantic tension between the male and female leads.
Le Xiaowei: "..."
"Oh, I see," Le Xiaowei muttered, utterly done with this nonsense.
But then again, this was a harem novel. She supposed she should try to understand—not every guy could be as emotionally detached as her.
"I'm not going, bro," Le Xiaowei said to Le Xu beside her.
She had no strong feelings about the male lead, good or bad, but teaming up to take down Xiao Linfeng might be worth considering.
"Alright," Le Xu replied.
Yu Jing finally couldn’t hold back and asked, "Xiaowei, did Xiao Linfeng really turn you into... this?"
"Pretty much. He wanted me in his harem. I refused, and now here we are," Le Xiaowei summarized bluntly.
Yu Jing blinked, struggling to process the implications. Today’s events had already shattered his worldview.
"If you want to follow Xiao Linfeng, go ahead," Le Xu suddenly said to Yu Jing.
After all, the journey to the northwest would be long and arduous.
"Pfft, no way. Why would I grovel to some college kid?" Yu Jing was a few years older than Xiao Linfeng. If not for his friendship with Le Xu, he wouldn’t have bothered with the guy at all.
"You won’t become an Awakened if you don’t suck up to him," Le Xu said, half-amused, half-exasperated.
"Come on, Le Xu, don’t mess with me. If I really wanted to lick his boots, I wouldn’t have followed you out here," Yu Jing retorted, slapping Le Xu’s shoulder before storming off with an eye roll.
"Fine. If you’re sticking with us, we need to head northwest as soon as possible. The southeast isn’t safe for long," Le Xu said, his eyes narrowing slightly.
In half a month, the tides would rise, and the mutated sea creatures would attack the southeastern base. Those things were far more vicious than zombies, and unlike the undead, they didn’t even drop energy cores. Fighting them was a waste of time and effort.
If they didn’t leave soon after the blood rain, they’d be caught in the Snow Moon.
"Northwest?" Le Xiaowei glanced at Le Xu.
"Aren’t we getting revenge?" Her voice turned icy.
Was Le Xu just a coward? If the two male leads didn’t clash, what entertainment was left for her?
Boring. Maybe she should just delete this world and move on.
"It’s not that, Xiaowei. Our current location is dangerous, and the southeast is the farthest from the northwest. If we don’t hurry, the snow will make travel nearly impossible," Le Xu explained, resting a hand on his sister’s shoulder, his expression troubled.
Le Xiaowei wasn’t familiar with the novel’s exact plot—only the general direction of the world’s events. Hearing this, she realized that if they were heading northwest, Xiao Linfeng, who knew the story, would likely do the same.
"By the way, what’s the big deal about the snow?" Le Xiaowei asked Si, tapping her chin.
"The novel mentions it—the Snow Moon. Though ‘moon’ is an understatement; it’s practically a Snow Year. Soon, the entire world will plunge into an extreme winter. Many humans freeze or starve to death, while zombies undergo another evolution during this period."
"But for you, it’s especially dangerous. Heavy snow will drastically slow your movements, practically immobilizing you. All your stats will drop. Le Xu knows this, which is why he’s rushing to get you out."
"For humans, the cold isn’t as deadly—just a risk of freezing or starvation."
This was exactly why Si had been against Le Xiaowei coming to this world. The apocalypse was too unpredictable.
"That bad?" Le Xiaowei hadn’t expected being a zombie to be so rough.
"Of course. The world can’t just keep buffing zombies without giving humans a fighting chance. Snow is when humans have the easiest time killing zombies. But if you survive it, the benefits for you are huge."
Le Xiaowei took a slow breath.
"Fine. Brother, I’ll go with you," she said, meeting Le Xu’s gaze.
Only then did Le Xu smile faintly. "Don’t worry. Even if you’re a zombie now, I’ll do everything I can to protect you."
"Honestly, Le Xu, Xiaowei seems way sharper than those other zombies. Just her eye color gives her away," Yu Jing remarked, pulling out a piece of compressed biscuit from his pocket and crunching on it.
This would be his staple food from now on.
Miserable? Sure. But who wasn’t miserable in the apocalypse?
"By the way, bro, what's that Teddy guy's strength like? Any special abilities?" Le Xiaowei asked as she settled onto a stool.
Le Xu took half a minute to realize she was referring to Xiao Linfeng. He coughed lightly, eyes glinting with amusement. His sister was as adorable as ever.
"Quite a few, actually. Fire, water, earth, wind, lightning, wood—plus the ability to control zombies, which I guess counts as psychic. He also seems to have a spatial ability, one with a planting function. The vegetables he takes out are always fresh. Beyond that, I’m not too sure."
Tch.
Of course he’d have the protagonist’s standard spatial cheat.
"But he doesn’t seem to need energy cores to level up," Yu Jing suddenly interjected. "That’s something I’ve wondered about for a while. He either gives those cores to the zombies or hands them to us."
Le Xu and Yu Jing exchanged glances.
If that was the case, how did Xiao Linfeng grow stronger?
"Dual cultivation. Or kissing. That can level him up too."
Si’s voice cut in abruptly.
Le Xiaowei nodded in understanding. Well, that explained it.
"Probably dual cultivation. He is an old horndog, after all. No clue about the rest, though. No idea when this rain will let up either." With a wave of her hand, a bucket of purified water and some snacks materialized on the floor.
"This should last you guys a few days."
Yu Jing blinked, rubbed his eyes, and turned to stare at Le Xiaowei.
"Xiaowei… you have a spatial ability?" he asked, utterly shocked.
"I do," she replied flatly.
No way was she letting Le Xu starve to death before he even found a wife.
Just as she was about to pull out a few energy cores from her space, Le Xu fished around in his pockets and finally produced a bright red core, handing it to her.
"Boss!" Yu Jing shot to his feet at the sight, lips trembling.
"What is this?" Le Xiaowei accepted it, puzzled.

e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
