In an apocalyptic world, Wei Huan is reborn 11 years in the past, brimming with determination to participate in the [Highway Survival Challenge] to gain extraordinary abilities and confront the supernatural monsters descending upon the present world.

In his previous life, bound by conventional rules, he missed the chance to enter the forest and open the god-tier treasure chest that was within reach. This time, he won’t let it slip by.

Romance Arc:

On the eve of entering the challenge, Wei Huan is blindsided by an arranged engagement.

His nearly bankrupt father, swayed by his stepmother’s suggestion, plans to marry him off to a disabled man.

Upon meeting, Wei Huan discovers his betrothed is none other than Mu Zhong.

Mu Zhong: the heartthrob of Challenger University, born with supernatural talent, and a prospective member of the Dragon Team’s Sixth Squad. He was set to officially join after acquiring a second extraordinary ability in the [Highway Survival Challenge] .

However, in a recent mission, Mu Zhong was unexpectedly crippled, losing even his supernatural abilities.

His final value lies in a commercial marriage alliance with the legitimate heir of a second-tier family, stripped of his inheritance rights.

The day after their wedding, Wei Huan enters the [Highway Survival Challenge] and successfully obtains a god-tier extraordinary ability.

But then…

[Ding!]

[Family member requests to join: Mu Zhong wishes to board. Do you accept?]

Luo Xun had survived ten years of the zombie apocalypse—not by becoming a badass warrior, but by doing what any true otaku would: hoarding supplies, avoiding people, and absolutely refusing to eat canned peaches.

Then he dies. But instead of staying dead, he respawns three months before the apocalypse begins. Armed with a decade’s worth of doomsday knowledge (and anime logic), Luo Xun sets out to prepare for the end of the world—otaku style.

---------------

His plan: Buy all the instant noodles. Stockpile solar-powered gadgets. Build the ultimate apocalypse man cave. Avoid drama.

But in reality: He ends up rescuing a gorgeous architect named Yan Fei, who looks like he should be sipping lattes in a Paris café, not laying bricks and hoisting steel beams like a tank in tight jeans. Luo Xun’s reaction?

[“He’s too pretty. He must be useless. Definitely can’t cook.”]

Spoiler: Yan Fei *can* cook. And flirt. And install solar panels.

Together, the two build the chillest stronghold in the zombie world, complete with hydroponic gardens, renewable energy, and occasional relationship bickering that sounds like:

[“You bought *another* solar oven? Where will we even put it?”

“Next to the anime figures. Priorities, okay?”]

Despite the horror setting, this novel delivers deadpan humor, wholesome survival strategies, and a romance so domestic it could be sponsored by IKEA. It's the apocalypse—but make it cozy.
