The scorching summer sun blazed overhead.
A young man sat in an air-conditioned room, enjoying the cool air while reading a comic.
On a sweltering summer day, this should have been a double dose of happiness.
But instead, his face was twisted with discomfort!
Pain—such pain!
Damn this stupid comic!
Li Yiming cursed silently in his heart as he continued reading.
The comic he was reading was a wildly popular apocalyptic series:
“Apocalypse Rebirth: Final Evolution”!
Li Yiming’s expression showed not a trace of joy as he read.
Instead, he was furiously muttering profanities under his breath, aimed squarely at the author and his entire family!
When he got to the part that truly infuriated him the most.
He suddenly stood up and flung the comic across the room!
“This idiot Isayama wannabe! I’m gonna go take a dump in your hot spring inn!”
Li Yiming shouted in frustration.
The reason for his outburst?
This comic .
It started off strong but completely fell apart!
Back when everyone was hyping it up as a masterpiece, it was indeed brilliant.
But now?
Total garbage!
In the story, the protagonist Shen Feiyan uses his rebirth advantage to score big constantly.
He cheats his way through the apocalypse, pulling off impossible kills against high-level zombies.
If someone so much as gave him a dirty look—bam!
That was enough to get them killed.
Every single male character who clashed with Shen Feiyan?
Dead.
As for the female characters?
If they were pretty, they all ended up in his harem, sleeping in the same bed.
Now, for a mindless power fantasy, that might still be tolerable.
But what Li Yiming absolutely could not stand.
Was that his favorite side character, who happened to share his name—Li Yiming.
Got killed off in the most careless, abrupt way possible!
Even though this was his third time reading that part, Li Yiming still couldn’t accept it.
The comic’s Li Yiming.
Was such a well-developed character!
Powerful, calm, and rational!
Even in a post-apocalyptic world where humanity was all but lost—
The Li Yiming in the comic still shone with the brilliance of human nature!
If he hadn’t saved the protagonist from a horde of zombies at the very start,
the story probably would’ve ended in chapter one!
And yet, look at the reborn protagonist, Shen Feiyan.
Even with the power of reincarnation, he completely ignored the man who saved his life—Li Yiming!
Dude, you were reborn!
And you had a bottle of antivirus serum on you!
It’s bad enough that he didn’t save his benefactor…but he actually shot Li Yiming dead with his own hands!
Then, after killing the man who saved his life,Shen Feiyan had the nerve to take in Li Yiming’s little sister into his harem!
When that chapter came out, Li Yiming (the reader) was completely dumbfounded!
And it wasn’t just him.
Countless fans couldn’t accept the death of such a popular and well-written side character!
Li Yiming sat at the edge of his bed, sighing deeply.
He couldn’t understand what was going on with comic authors these days.
It was like they all got together and decided to completely drop the ball!
After sulking for a while, Li Yiming finally felt a bit better.
He stood up and walked to his bookshelf.
Staring at the full collection of comic, he grabbed a plastic bag.
He was going to throw all this trash out!
With that thought in mind, Li Yiming shoved the entire collection off the shelf and into the bag.
Carrying the bag, he walked straight out the door.
This lousy comic could go cool off somewhere far away!
Fuming, Li Yiming swung open the door!
But the moment he stepped outside.
A hard-working interdimensional truck came barreling straight at him!
The driver, panic-stricken, blared the horn and slammed on the brakes.
Li Yiming reacted instantly, trying to dodge.
But—he was too late.
Bang!
Li Yiming felt his body become light, as if weightless.
A few seconds later.
His body came crashing back down to the ground.
“Seriously…? You’re going with this cliché…”
“Done with lightning strikes, and now it’s time for the great Truck-kun revival, huh…”
Lying in a pool of blood, Li Yiming muttered weakly.
His consciousness grew fuzzier, and his eyelids heavier.
In the final second before he blacked out.
Li Yiming made a silent wish in his heart.
He just hoped that the world he was transmigrating to… wouldn’t be too difficult.
As he mumbled internally in unwilling frustration.
His awareness seemed to turn into a wisp of smoke, drifting upward into the sky.
The world around him gradually became hazy and chaotic, while his consciousness seemed to be pulled toward some unknown destination!
After an almost dreamlike sensation.
Li Yiming felt his body once again.
Have I… arrived?
A wave of confusion washed over him.
But before he could make sense of anything—a sharp, real pain hit him!
“Tsssss!!”
Li Yiming hissed, sucking in a breath through clenched teeth!
The pain jolted his hazy mind back to clarity.
He opened his eyes with great effort, still groggy—and was instantly stunned by the scene before him!
A rotting, foul-smelling “person” with festering skin.
Was biting into his arm!
Bright red blood gushed out like a burst dam, and the pain was becoming excruciatingly real!
No time to think about how this happened.
Li Yiming instinctively kicked at the creature!
“Let go!”
He slammed his foot into the thing’s gut several times, but it had no effect!
The creature was like a rabid hound, clamping down on his arm with unrelenting force!
He could feel the flesh being torn—just moments away from losing a chunk of his arm.
Without hesitation, Li Yiming punched it directly in the skull!
Bang!
His fist landed with a solid, muffled thud!
The head took the blow, and the creature let out a low growl of pain.
Finally—it released his arm!
Li Yiming yanked his arm back and immediately sprang to his feet!
But before he could even process what just happened.
BOOM!!
A deafening blast rang out like thunder!
The creature’s head—exploded like a watermelon!
“Yiming! Are you okay?!”
A man dressed in a black trench coat, with messy black hair, asked in a cold voice.
Despite the concern in his words, he didn’t spare Li Yiming a single glance.
From beginning to end, he kept his eyes locked cautiously on their surroundings.
Li Yiming looked at the man in front of him—and his brows furrowed sharply.
That face—he knew it far too well!
Wasn’t this the protagonist of “Apocalypse Rebirth: Final Evolution”, Shen Feiyan?!
That smug, punchable face—Li Yiming would recognize it even if it turned to ashes!!
Clutching the wound on his left arm, Li Yiming muttered the name under his breath:
“Shen Feiyan… is that you?”
At Li Yiming’s question, Shen Feiyan turned to him with a puzzled expression.
And the moment Li Yiming saw the man’s face clearly, he was completely sure of it.
This was definitely the Shen Feiyan from the comic!
Could it be… he had transmigrated into the world of the comic?!
Before Li Yiming could even begin to process this flood of information.
Two girls came rushing up behind Shen Feiyan, and what he saw next made his eyes widen in shock again!
“Brother Yiming, are you hurt?!”
One of them—a girl with shoulder-length black hair in a school uniform—saw the wound on Li Yiming and immediately tried to run over to him!
But before she could reach him.
Shen Feiyan grabbed her by the wrist!
“Li Xiaoyao, don’t go over there!”
“Your brother, Li Yiming, may already be infected by the zombies!”
Shen Feiyan held her back, speaking in a cold, serious tone.
Those words instantly made Li Yiming’s expression darken.
