S City
Inside a villa
Liu Wanwan had just finished sorting through the memories in her mind when she discovered a problem.
She had transmigrated into a book, an apocalypse novel with no romance and a male protagonist at its center.

The original owner had died for some unknown reason, and Liu Wanwan had inexplicably entered the world of the book, becoming the female cannon-fodder who died early in the story.
She remembered that when the cannon-fodder was introduced, it had been described like this:
On the morning of the first day of the Apocalypse, a certain young lady accidentally bonded with the bracelet on her wrist and discovered that it contained a space. Before she could even celebrate, she passed out.
When she woke up again, she had become a zombie. Because the bedroom door was locked and zombies could not open doors, she remained trapped inside the room.
This plot hole had always been mocked by readers as the most useless cheat ability in history.
End of plot recollection.
It was six in the morning.
Liu Wanwan felt that she had overlooked something.
Wait, wasn’t today the first day of the Apocalypse?
“I don’t want to…”
Before she could finish speaking, she fainted onto the bed.
Eleven in the morning.
Liu Wanwan woke up on the bed. She first looked at her hands. They were still as fair and delicate as ever. She hurriedly got out of bed and walked over to the full-length mirror.
The person in the mirror was wearing a white sleeveless nightdress that ended slightly above the knees, revealing a pair of long, fair legs.
Her delicate little face had a pair of peach blossom eyes that curved into dazzling crescent moons when she smiled.
“Thank goodness. I didn’t turn into a zombie.”
Liu Wanwan happily slapped the pink wall. Instantly, a shallow palm-shaped dent appeared in it.
She looked at her hand, then at the dent in the wall. Her initial confusion gradually turned into horror.
“Is the wall just that poorly made… or have I become a female bodybuilder?”
The moment Liu Wanwan imagined that scene, she felt terrible.
To confirm her suspicion, she closed her eyes and sensed the abnormalities in her body.
When she opened her eyes again, she raised her hand. A crackling ball of purple lightning appeared in her palm.
Oh, so it was an ability!
Liu Wanwan breathed a sigh of relief.
Wait. Did the book say that lightning ability users also had great strength?
Liu Wanwan fell silent for a few seconds. Pressing her lips together, she walked over to the bed. She grabbed it with both hands and lifted it with ease, raising the entire bed off the ground.
Expressionless, she put the bed back down. Then she threw herself onto it, burying her entire face in the blanket.
Waaah!
Being a female bodybuilder or whatever was so embarrassing!
This body looked exactly the same as her previous one, whether in figure, height, or facial features. The only difference was a black mole on her left wrist. Otherwise, she would have thought she had transmigrated into the book with her original body.
In both lives, she had the same soft, sweet, and innocent appearance. Yet now she was going to be called a female bodybuilder. Didn’t she have any dignity?
So she absolutely could not let anyone find out. She would just pretend that her body had been strengthened by her ability and that her strength was only slightly greater than normal.
Yes, that was it. Exactly!
After successfully convincing herself,
Liu Wanwan got off the bed and went to the dressing table. She picked up an eyebrow razor and placed it against the index finger of her right hand. She closed her eyes, but she simply could not bring herself to cut deeply.
Suddenly, a scream came from downstairs.
Liu Wanwan was so startled that she trembled. Her hand jerked, and the razor instantly cut a wound across her index finger.
Hiss… It hurts so damn much.
Tears of pain welled up in Liu Wanwan’s eyes. Enduring the pain, she controlled her index finger and let the blood drip onto the bracelet on her left wrist.
After a while, the bracelet emitted a faint glow and disappeared in an instant.
Immediately afterward, the black mole on her left wrist began to heat up. Then her entire body disappeared from where she stood.
Liu Wanwan felt her body sway, and she found herself in another place.
The sky here was a brilliant blue, with a gentle breeze occasionally sweeping past.
Under her feet was a stretch of soft grass.
There was a wooden house ahead. To her left was a pond where lotus flowers were blooming beautifully. To her right were rows of fields.
Behind her stood a small mountain. A waterfall flowed down from it, forming lakes and streams of various sizes across the grassland.
So beautiful!
This should be the space from the book.
As the saying went, once you had a space, you had supplies.
But she was only cannon-fodder. Although she was still alive now, who knew whether she would be cannon foddered off at some point in the future?
In her previous life, among the many apocalypse novels she had read, there had been reborn female supporting characters who successfully turned their lives around, as well as transmigrated female supporting characters who were controlled by the heavenly laws of the book or by the plot and ultimately failed to reverse their fates.
She was just a little cannon-fodder who had transmigrated into a book. She had no protagonist’s halo, nor was she as clever as those female supporting characters who managed to change their destinies. For someone like her, it was better to choose the safest path available for now.
She remembered that in the book, the male protagonist had been in S City from the very beginning, in the same city as her.
When she had read the novel, she had really liked the male protagonist’s personality. He was loyal, affectionate, intelligent, and wise. As long as someone did not betray him, he would bring that person under his protection.
Moreover, the male protagonist possessed both space and mental abilities. It was just that he concealed his mental ability during the early stages, and no one except the people on his team knew about it.
During the early stages of the Apocalypse, many people went looking for trouble with the male protagonist.
Speaking of which, the male protagonist had suffered even more than the original owner. Both of them had fathers who did not care much for them and mothers who were absent. Although the original owner’s father did not like her, he would not completely abandon her.
But the male protagonist was different. His father, stepmother, and half-brother had sent people to assassinate him, and even his mother had been killed by his stepmother. He really had it rough. The key point was that he had not become twisted despite everything. No wonder he was the male protagonist.
In the early stages of the Apocalypse, people only knew that space-type ability users could store things. They did not know that once a space-type ability reached Level Five, it could be used offensively. Whether it was a spatial blade or spatial cutting, it could kill people without them even realizing it.
Later in the novel, the male protagonist could even perform spatial teleportation. In short, the space ability was even stronger than the lightning ability.
To stay alive, Liu Wanwan decided to cling to the male protagonist’s powerful protection.
After leaving the space, Liu Wanwan changed into a black tracksuit and stored everything in her room, whether useful or not, inside the space.
She looked at the now-empty room, turned around, grabbed the doorknob, and took a deep breath. She twisted the handle, quickly opened the door, and headed toward the stairs.
As soon as she reached the first floor, a female zombie with half of her face destroyed walked toward her, making hoarse “huh huh” sounds.
Oh my god!
Liu Wanwan was startled. She raised her hand and sent a bolt of purple lightning at the zombie. In an instant, the zombie turned into a blackened corpse and collapsed onto the floor.
Liu Wanwan patted her heaving chest. Looking at the blackened corpse on the floor, she fell into thought.
Judging from the apron she had been wearing, Liu Wanwan could vaguely tell that she had been the cook at the original owner’s home.
The original owner was an illegitimate daughter. By a stroke of fate, her mother had voluntarily helped the original owner’s father, which resulted in her birth.
Later, after giving birth to the original owner, her mother left.
As the existence of an illegitimate daughter, the original owner had always been a thorn in the side of the original owner’s father’s wife.
Later, after the original owner’s father raised her until she was old enough to understand things, he sent her to S City.
Although the original owner’s father could not give her much paternal love, he had never neglected her in terms of food, clothing, housing, or transportation.
Moreover, according to the memories, the original owner’s father called her every month to ask about her life. Even the school he had found for her was the best university in S City, S University.
Of course, it also helped that the original owner’s grades were good. Otherwise, even with connections, it would not have been so easy.
Today happened to be the weekend. There were only three people in the villa. Besides her and the aunt who had just turned into a blackened corpse, there was only one aunt who cleaned the house.
At that moment, a “huh huh” sound came from the front door.
A female zombie with deathly pale skin, black or purple raised veins across her face, and a mouth full of blood and scraps of flesh staggered through the front door.
Seeing this, Liu Wanwan ran into the kitchen and grabbed a cleaver. She went directly around behind the zombie and swung the cleaver at its neck.
In an instant, the zombie’s head fell to the ground, spraying black blood everywhere. A little of it splashed onto her face as well.
With a clang, the cleaver fell to the floor. Liu Wanwan covered her mouth with one hand and ran toward the bathroom.
Urgh…
Twelve minutes later.
Liu Wanwan had stored everything in the villa that she thought might or might not be useful in her space. Without the slightest hesitation, she turned around, left the villa, and headed toward the garage.
Inside the garage,
Liu Wanwan chose a Hummer, stored the other Land Rover and the RV inside her space, started the vehicle, drove out of the garage, and headed straight for the large iron gate.
When she saw that the iron gate was locked and there were only two zombies wandering nearby, she quickly got out of the car, opened the gate, and hurried back inside. She started the car again and drove onto the road ahead.
The sound of the vehicle attracted the two zombies in front of her. They stiffly shuffled toward the car.
Huh huh, huh huh~
The surviving residents nearby heard the sound of the vehicle and began opening the windows upstairs or standing on their balconies to watch.
Seeing this, Liu Wanwan pursed her lips. She stepped on the accelerator and quickly left the zombies behind.
Actually, during the early stages of the Apocalypse, zombies were slow and clumsy in their movements, making them quite easy to deal with, except for one thing…
They were just a little ugly!
