Yanshan base was originally a small third-tier city, and the infrastructure was lacking. Many roads had been repaired, but most of them were still disorganized, and there was no fundamental planning. Only a few of the local residents of the city remained, and all normal people were already dead.The ability users with some strength had all gone to larger bases for security. After all, this place was connected to a lot of other locations, but had no oversight, causing the environment here to be rather messy.
Before the apocalypse, Chu Han was the president of an internet company. He did not have many people under his command, and very few of them had abilities and were able to live until now. So, other than him and He Yan, there were only five people left in his team.

He Yan did not agree with Xue Ling’s and everyone else’s decision to each go their own way, but it was useless. There was no one who could prevent Xue Ling from doing what he wanted to do. Besides, no one on the team had a good relationship with He Yan. It was already bad enough that nobody spoke to him; the few of them simply crossed their arms over their chests as though watching a joke.
He Yan flushed red, and his face was full of grievance. “Brother Han, do you really have the heart to leave me alone? Didn’t uncle and aunt tell you to take good care of me?
Xue Ling looked at him with his lips curved. Although the corners of his lips pointed up slightly, there was no amusement on his face at all. “First crying, then kicking up a fuss, and finally trying to hang yourself no longer works, so you’re using my parents to pressure me?” There was a lazy flavour to his words, and adding on the way he carelessly half-leaned against the car, no matter how one looked at him, it was obvious he had no patience for He Yan. “If I remember correctly, my parents died in order to protect you. I had not quibbled with you about it back then, but that does not mean I’m willing to watch you harm the people around me to death one after another. You’d better go while I still have the patience to talk to you about these things.”
He Yan’s eyes reddened.
He was born good-looking, his lips red, and teeth white, his face a little round, and everyone who saw him praised him for being cute. In the past, Chu Han would not speak to him so severely even when he disliked him. This time, he opened his mouth to say these words, wanting to drive him away from the team, and it seemed that his heart was particularly firm. “Big brother Han, why? You’ve never said things like this to me before… What did I do wrong? Can’t you just tell me so that I can change it?”
Xue Ling was really too lazy to go on with him like this. It was getting dark. How much longer would they have to stay here discussing whether or not he should leave?
“You guys get in the car.” Xue Ling motioned for the others to get in the car, and opened the door to the driver’s compartment himself. “There’s nothing more to say. We no longer have any relationship to each other from today onwards. If you still need a proper declaration, I can give it to you tomorrow. From now on, you’re no longer part of our team.”

He Yan watched him get into the car and drive off without waiting for him. His heart was filled with all kinds of grievances and mixed feelings, and tears unconsciously started to run down his face.
He stood foolishly in the middle of the road, not understanding how things could become like this. It was totally different from his plan. He only did these things in order to save the world – why couldn’t Chu Han understand him even a little? He had been determined to take the same path as the zombies in the last life, and this life he was the same. He hadn’t even hesitated before throwing him away!
What he threw away was the hope of mankind! Didn’t he understand?!
Anger and unprecedented grievance made He Yan crouch on the roadside thinking about life. His system had been comforting him non-stop, telling him that it was Chu Han who was ignorant, and as long as he could make him clearly understand how grand an undertaking it was, Chu Han would definitely support them.

With that, He Yan finally gathered back his emotions and stood up, thinking about how to get back to Yanshan base.
This road went in all directions, and people could get to the base via this road regardless of where they’d come from. Before, he had driven one of the team’s cars back to get help, and then returned in the rescuers’ car. Now, other than walking back on his own, his only other option was to flag down a car.
It was already getting dark. Not only was dangerous to be out and about at night, He Yan was also not strong at all.
His system could provide him with convenience, and it could also help him rank up, but today was the first day of his return to this timeframe; his wood ability was still very weak, his offensive power terrible.
If he did not want to die in the mouth of a zombie, he had to quickly find a car willing to pick him up.
Just then, a black off-road vehicle came into sight. He smiled excitedly, wiped his face, and jumped into the middle of the road, waving his hand at the car that was still a little distance away.
Very soon, the car stopped in front of him, and the driver rolled down the window, revealing a cold, distant face.
The man was wearing sunglasses, his long hair tied into a high ponytail. He wore a black dress shirt under a white trench coat. Even during the end of the world, he was wearing a watch on his hand, and sat there looking graceful and dignified. His identity and status was bound to be high.
However, He Yan’s heart was frozen.
For no other reason than because he recognized this man.

Before turning back time, Yanshan Base and the zombies had come together to discuss cooperation. At that time, with the idea that he might as well start over since things had already reached that point, he wanted to destroy that meeting and use it to recharge the system so that it could turn back time. It was during that time that he met the zombie faction’s leader.
He was a very dreadful man. He only glanced at him, but the gaze the man sent over had the ability to kill him on the spot. Even the system on his body was terrified of this man. It was because he existed that He Yan must cultivate Chu Han and make him achieve SSS-level. This was the only way to resolve such a big hidden danger.
Looking at the cold, distant person in front of him, He Yan’s trembled, and even his teeth chattered a little. He was very afraid of such a living weapon, but he also knew very clearly that there was nothing he could do about it. No matter how many more ability users there were, they would still be unable to do anything to him. It was because of this that he could not expose him. He forced himself to calm down and asked, “Are you going to Yanshan base? Can you give me a lift?
The man’s gaze swept back and forth over his body, seemingly stripping him bare to look at all of him. That kind of gaze made He Yan feel uncomfortable all over. “I… I’m not a bad person. Only, something happened and I was left here…”
