On April 1st, 20XX, a massive meteorite strikes Antarctica, and three months later, the "X Virus," also known as the zombie virus, spreads globally. The world quickly descends into chaos as governments lose control and society collapses.

The story focuses on Tang Buping, a young man living a desolate life in a tiny, dilapidated wooden cabin near the Huangpu River. After his mother's death three years prior, he was cast out and has been living like a zombie himself, full of despair. One day, while searching for food, he is attacked by a zombie and barely escapes back to his cabin. Ready to give up and lie down to await death, he writes a final letter to his deceased mother.

However, as he lies on his bed, he unexpectedly awakens the "Lie Flat and Develop" system. The novel follows Tang Buping as he uses this new, seemingly tower-defense-oriented system to survive and perhaps even thrive in the harsh, zombie-infested apocalypse.

[Desert farming + ancient time travel + new theme + team + ordinary people + development and hegemony flow]

Starting with a small oasis, no resources, and a devastating start.

Fortunately, Lu Chen had acquired the talent of intensive farming, which reduced the time it took for crops to mature by half.

He also awakened the innate skill of Livestock Prosperity, which shortened the growth time of animals by half.

With two great farming skills in hand, Lu Chen became the largest grain merchant of the human race, but ended up attracting the covetousness of alien races.

The orcs are in small numbers, so they force me to use livestock to make them prosperous!

The elves' ancient life trees are not old enough, forcing me to use intensive cultivation on them!

The succubus tempted me to marry into their family and become their group pet and granary!

Faced with the threats and inducements of foreign races, the ancient people of the eight dynasties who traveled through time together issued an appeal: Protect our farmers!

Qin Shi Huang: Give me a map, and I will personally lead an army of 100,000 to crush the foreign races!

Emperor Wu of Han: The Han army is coming, don't move, or your clan will be exterminated!

Emperor Wen of Sui: Anyone from the four directions who dares to offend Lu Chen, I will destroy his country, annihilate his race, and cut off his descendants!

Faced with the strong protection of the ancestors, Lu Chen said that I have a magical skill called "you reap what you sow". Whoever disobeys will be planted in the field. Are you afraid?

The introduction is weak, please move to the main text!

[In the early and middle stages, you will farm for survival. In the later stages, you will fight for supremacy and fight against alien races together with the ancient people of the Eight Dynasties. The main feature is a creative way to survive from the perspective of ordinary people. You are not invincible.]

And lo and behold, what do we find? A lone player.

The property on him is six times the output of the copy!

As long as we get rid of him, we won't have to worry about resource shortages for the next month.

Well~ He was completely unaware of my approach, which was good;

I approached him;

I stabbed him in the heart;

He finally seemed to react, but it was too late;

Wait, something seems wrong?!

He is not dead!

He looked at me!

He backhanded me a knife—

【You have been broken;】

You have been disabled;

You take mana burn damage.

[You are affected by the Spear of Boiling Blood;]

You are affected by a neurotoxin.

【you...】

【You are dead.】

Reading Guide:

No melodrama or catfights. The female lead is the strongest — not a brainless power fantasy, no cliché plot devices, and she grows over time.

Set in a true post-apocalyptic world with a sci-fi backdrop. It's an ensemble narrative with speculative science — not meant to be scientifically accurate.

The female lead starts out as chaotic neutral, with a hidden dark side. Don’t impose moral judgments — she is not a perfect heroine.

Also known as: “The Apocalypse Is Now Online”

Note: The author is hot-tempered and uncouth — prone to anger and cursing.

Reclaiming wasteland and farming, exploring and collecting, building a completely personal manor from scratch.

Jiang Yuan always thought that the bound game was a cheat that could shuttle between the two worlds to resell things, until he found that the skills he got in the game could also be used in reality!

Chen Feng was reborn five years ago, just one day before the game "Desolate Path" launched.

His advantage from rebirth allowed him to acquire the only Starshine Ring in the world and extract an SSS-level talent—Hundredfold Counter Damage!

With this heavenly-defying talent and five years of understanding of the game, Chen Feng thrived seamlessly within it.

Wealthy Player: He's absolutely terrifying. No matter how much money I spend, I can't compete with him.

Beauty Guild Leader: Our female player guild is willing to make an exception to let him join.

Top Assassin: He is the only player I'm too afraid to assassinate; he's just too strong.

King’s Guild Leader: I'll never forget that day when he annihilated our guild with five healers supporting him.

Casual Player: Ride the wind with a smile, fate beyond prediction. Drink to the breeze, forever a god.

...

As the virtual and reality converge, Chen Feng grinned at the monsters before him, “The grudges of the past life, repaid a hundredfold in this one!”

Star exploration, high-speed railway, mobile payment

The earth's science and technology are increasingly prosperous, but the earth's science and technology has not made a major breakthrough for a long time.

We seem to have entered the science and technology plateau with thin air.

Chu Feng, who returned to the earth from high-tech civilization, seems to have injected oxygen into this plateau.

From accelerator to artificial intelligence

From mobile phone vr to virtual reality

From magnetic levitation to space warship

From a small IT company to a huge science and technology empire

Let's witness the birth of an era called Origin together.

When the end of the world came, he accidentally ate a crystal core and became an evolver, and his life has been out of his control since then.
