Description
Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.Lin An, plagued by severe social anxiety and obsessive cleanliness, rarely ventured outside, preferring to spend his days indoors, shopping via his smartphone and ordering takeout. As the apocalypse descended, his frail body inevitably succumbed to the virus, transforming him into a zombie.
First Attempt: The irrational, starving zombie Lin An, driven by a bloodthirsty frenzy, screeched as he opened the door. Outside, the scene was gruesome with bloodstains everywhere, scattered remains of gnawed limbs, and various items dropped in haste by those fleeing. Quietly, he closed the door.
Second Attempt: Hearing human voices outside, the famished zombie Lin An opened the door again, ready to pounce on his prey. Upon opening the door, he locked eyes with five residents stealthily scavenging for supplies. Intimidated by their five pairs of terrified, piercing stares, Lin An quietly shut the door again and hid himself inside a cabinet.
Third Attempt: Finally, hunger triumphed over his social anxiety and cleanliness fixation. Wearing a mask and gloves, he stepped outside. In the neighborhood, he found fresh ‘food’, happily dragged it home, cleaned it thoroughly, and prepared for a hearty feast.

It's all of those, 5 stars in terms of fun-factor. Characterisation is decent, there are two female central side-characters that are written really well, the rest of the group is developed enough, too. ML is the cold-faced type, but he cares about his people and treats MC with respect, never does anything questionable to him.
MC is how you would expect it, timid, cowardly, gloomy, but with a pure, very soft heart.
He's too good of a person, and that's a compliment. The romance is slow and believable, it develops over months of companionship, nothing sudden or head-scratching about it. There's some good world-building going on, sadly it just wasn't done right.
Some things are ultra detailed down to historic records, myths, and whatnot.
On the other hand, the general base is a mess.
At first it seems to be our world and time, but later it becomes clearer that it's more fantasy (?), but then there's some Sci-Fi at one point (??), and a bit of ancient earth stuff (???).
The writer put too much effort into detailing minor aspects and forgot to show the world as a whole, so it often seems disconnected or even clashing.
People live like us, have mobile phones, internet, cars, etc., looks exactly like our world and time.
But there's a city full of high-tech, including intelligent robots that can identify and fight Zombies, are housekeepers, talk, have personalities, etc.
They are sold to other cities as well but somehow we haven't seen a single one up until that city, and the "super-weapons" the group got from there seems to be completely normal stuff that doesn't fit into a world full of highly developed robots.
On the other hand large portions of the world seem to be ancient jungles/forests full of strange plants and beasts, many parts are completely unexplored, and there's the profession of "explorers" who wander into these jungles to find treasures.
Some of these plants can be said to be magical, and there are ancient animal-gods/guardians...
Zombies don't breathe, MC doesn't either. But at one point the writer states that MC's breathing becomes quicker.
MC blushes. He has no heartbeat, doesn't bleed, there's no blood flow in his body. But he blushes.
MC has water powers, he even learns to produce warm water. But later it's explained that he collects water from his surroundings and doesn't "produce" it himself – so how does he heat it up?
He works hard to develop ways to use it for attacks, yet he doesn't do the easiest thing – drown enemies. Somehow people he swapped up into his water, completely submerging them for a significant amount of time, could always breathe just fine.
MC doesn't eat people, he eats absolutely nothing, and didn't for over 6 months before he met ML.
It's later shown that Zombie have to regularly eat or they will basically shrivel, get slow and weak.
The writer tells us that MC is weak because he never ate, and yet he easily walks through half of the city and drags the unconscious ML all the way back home.
It's fine in the earlier chapters because they were rare, but their number increases sharply the further you read, some parts really start to fall apart.
I think it's because she focused way too much on unimportant details, tried to explain minor stuff no reader would have even questioned, and lost track of most of them while writing later chapters. All in all, the first 20 or so chapters would have easily been 5 stars, it was fun, well executed, character dynamics were interesting, and the story deep enough to enjoy it.
It might have been better to keep it entertaining instead of trying to make it "deeper" by flashing out aspects and involving mysteries that just lead to inconsistencies and repeating situations that seem copy-pasted. Still, it's a fun read that I will likely finish and would recommend to everyone who likes not-so-serious apocalyptic stories and can overlook inconsistencies and plotholes.
In this, chapter 88, traveling through the snow, they suddenly stop in a place covered in ice, a city of ice and snow. Its entrance has a labyrinth created to confuse people, it is as if each city in this world only allowed native residents or experienced explorers to enter.
From what I remember, he and ML knew each other before the apocalypse, plus Xu Fang is the first member of the team who appears after introducing MC and ML to us. He has earthly powers.
he ended up losing his parents to the apocalypse.
Later, the dog develops the power of super speed, but this is used little.
Later, at the beginning of the apocalypse, her parents turn into zombies, so to protect her granddaughter, her grandmother ends up killing them.
Little by little, it is revealed to us that she is suffering from Alzheimer's.
His father was also an explorer and his mother is a doctor (he himself claims that her team discovered the cure for Alzheimer's). Later, as he falls in love with Lin An, he shows himself to be a caring, worried, and jealous lover.
Lin An is the son of historians who traveled on an expedition to a mysterious city when he was a child, but ended up never returning. His biggest goal has always been to go after his parents, but before he never succeeded because of his anxieties and fears.
The dog literally thinks "master, master, master~" — His owner, of course, is his family, but I found it so irritating how nosy they made the dog be. Seriously, a protective and loving dog is really cool, but I skipped a few chapters because there was no point in reading the dog being kidnapped by wolves just to be treated like a puppy.
- Multiple characters with actual personalities and individual motivations
- Character growth not only from the MC but also those around him
- A subtle, slowburn romance (not rushed, but appropriately timed for the reader)
- A "shounen anime" vibe mixed with an Indiana Jones one
- A light, but intriguing read
- No pointless filler dialogue (the type that sometimes entertainment circle novels have - where the author thinks they should fill a whole chapter with online comments from "bystanders/passers-by"
- Well-paced flashbacks
- HE
- The presence of Extras (I enjoy it when the author includes extra scenes)
I've finished reading the main text and am now looking for the Extras. To those reading the reviews, stop now and don't spoil it for yourself. Just click the first chapter and get ready to adventure.ML helped MC for improving MC power by being in a washing machine c*m tornado 😂
The condition of MC in the ancient ruins was really heartwrenching and also the betrayal in the ice city. Really wanted to beat them up
The wolves pups were so cute 🥰
