There Will Always Be Protagonists With Delusions of Starting a Harem

Wei Xu andFang Yunqi left the research institute whenthe inspectionfinished, each returning totheir ownhomes. Liu Taostartedtomeet with B citybase's people more often, Zhong Qiu was preoccupiedwith developing the cure, YanZheng spent alldaylooking for clues outside, Liang Ping was unwilling toleave the research institute. Inthe span of one dayeveryone seemedtoallbecome verybusy.

Noone has seenXu Yi ever since Qiu Xiangyu was captured, his smallsquadquicklydispersed, scattering tovarious corners of the base. The Wei familyandZhong familyjoinedforces andbegantodoa secret sweeping of everycorner of the base.

Ye Zhizhou whohadnothing todojust took onallof the logistics work. He draggedFang Yunqi tostart preparing three meals andfruits after meals everydayfor everyone. It was at this moment that everyone discoveredthat he, unexpectedly, couldcook well. The dishes he made were sogoodeveryone wantedtoeat their owntongues too. Ye Zhizhou hadspent a few lives living inriches andhadevenspent one eating imperialmeals, seeing them behaving like pig as theyate, he issueda coldsnort. Inexperiencedbumpkins, he hasn't evenlearnt the imperialmeals from his last life!

A black facedZhong Qiu lookedat the mealonthe table andat LaoBoandthe others whowere enjoying the food, the look inhis eyes shifted, whirlwinds formedaroundhis body, "The equipment inlab three needs cleaning, you guys gocleanit."

The shoulders of LaoBoandmiss BaoBaowhowere pointedout slumpeddown. Thentheyspedup their taking inof vegetables anddigging inthe meal. This type of heartless boss bullying his subordinates is what theyexperiencedeveryday, inallof heavenandearth eating is number one, whatever work canbe talkedafter theyfinishedeating!

Zhong Qiu got evenmore riledup, eyeing the Liang Ping sitting tothe side.

"I'm helping for free, you can't force me." Liang Ping quicklyslicedmeat intoseveralchunks andhandedit over toYe Zhizhou, "Boss, your boyfriendis sofierce."

Ye Zhizhou understoodwhat he meant immediately, he stuffeda bundle of bananas ontohis hands. "This is the smallest amount inmyspace, eat it slowly, or you willhave nothing toeat." He thengatheredthe meat andput it downnext toZhong Qiu, waving arounda threat, "If you dare turnintoa zombie I'llhave you eat this."

Zhong Qiu's color of eyes quicklychangedbecause of the meat's smelluntilhe finallyturnednormalwith difficulty. But he stilllookedat the few people eating onthe other side with gloomylook. His hands stretchedtotake Ye Zhizhou byhis waist, he took him tohide inthe lounge.

The twostoppedinfront of the quarantine room, Ye Zhizhou pickedone chunk of meat andsent it intohis mouth, he askedcasually, "How is his body's condition?"

"The secondbatch of vaccine canalreadysuppress the virus inhis body, but after the virus has beensuppressedhis body's conditionstartedtoget worse." Zhong Qiu turneda coldshoulder tothe meat andperchedhis nose next tohis ear, taking a deep breath.

This abnormalpervertedmove… Ye Zhizhou cursedinhis mind. He tossedthe steak plate back intohis space intwo-three neat motions andtosseda chewing gum inhis mouth as he continuedtosay. "How's Qiu Xiangyu over there?"

"He’s a bit better, onlyhis abilitygot downgradedtwolevels, his vitalityis as low as always." Zhong Qiu felt better now with the smellof meat gone. He turnedtoplant a kiss onYe Zhizhou's lips' corner andhis hands startedtomisbehave.

He clearlycan't get it up but stillloves totease others! Ye Zhizhou tuggedhis hands off ina practicedmotionthentook out a slim piece of paper, waving it infront of him, "Next levelof scent hiding, scent blocking. Dowe start sticking them onnow?" After discussions, everyone agreedit wouldbe better the faster theycaught Xu Yi, this harmfulperson. This scent blocking mark is a helpfulitem, capable of erasing the scent completely, that the system kindlyprovided.

Zhong Qiu swept a glance at that paper he was holding, not asking where he got these from. His headdippedtokissedhim once, thenhe swiftlycarriedhim outside. He pointedat the research institute's outer walls, "The elders decidedthe blockade wouldbe the entire institute, is the paper enough?"

The whole building? Ye Zhizhou's eyebrows pickedup, he nodded, "It's enough, enough toblock the entire base." However, he's not clear of what the leaders here planned, these few days there were nomovements ontheir part.

Twomore days passedwhenthe base leader finalisedZhong Qiu's planoneliminating Xu Yi. That night, Wang Gang was releasedout of the research building as a bait. At twointhe morning, Xu Yi whohadbeenmissing for a long time appeared.

YanZheng was hiddeninthe shadows, whenhe saw a figure of a manseeminglyappear out of nowhere he tightenedhis grip onhis sword, his abilitystartedtoseepedout, eager tostrike. Wei Xu heldhis shoulder back andlet his abilityneutralise the fire he was unconsciouslyemitting, thenhe made a gesture tohim tolet him keep his calm. Ye Zhizhou glancedat the twomeninfront of him andshiftedback a bit while carefullymobilizing the spiritualforce onWang Gang, starting tomonitor the conversationbetweenWang Gang andXu Yi.

Wang Gang whowas ina verybadconditionstillfelt unrealwhenhe was sent out bythe institute, onlynow that he met Xu Yi that he felt a sense of reality.

"XiaoYi." He rushedtothe increasinglydelicate andgood-looking young manwith a face fullof thirst, "Give me some of your spring's water, I don't know what those beasts inthere injectedme with. It made mybodybecame like this, there's nostrength inmylimbs, help me, fast."

Xu Yis' face lookedworriedandanxious, he quicklytook out a glass of spring water andpassedit tohim while asking, "What beasts? Brother Wang, what didyou dothese few days after you left? How didyou turnout like this?"

Wang Gang was busydrinking the spring water, he took a slow breath andthentalkedresentfully, "It's those beasts from that institute! That dayI went out totrade materials for you, I happenedtosee that traitor Fang Yunqi, soI decidedtoteach him a lesson! Who'dhave thought that Wei Xu andthat sissyLiu Chenwouldsuddenlycome running with their twofriends, theynot onlytook Fang Yunqi, theyalsotiedme up andkept me inWei Xu's house. After twodays I triedtoescape inthe morning whenWei Xu was not around, but unfortunatelyI was capturedagainbya group of white coats. I was kept ina smallroom intheir research institute, being injectedwith that medicine that made me a mess andbecame this miserable sight!

"Wei Xu andLiu Chen?" Xu Yi's brows knittedfaintly, "Theywere the ones whocaught you? What's that about inthe research institute?" The informationhe got was a lot different from his ownguess andhe couldn't understandfor a bit. He thought that Wang Gang was capturedbythat strange zombie like Qiu Xiangyu, andboth were capturedinorder tolure him andobtainhis spring. After all, whenit comes tozombies, his spring emits a veryalluring smell. It was because of this that he was carefultohide inthe space, he was afraidtobe trackedbythe smellandcaptured.

"Let's stop talking, anywayit's badluck! Once I recover, I willkillthose bastards soonenough!" The more Wang Gang thought, the angrier he was. He crushedthe glass inhis hand. Then, as if remembering something he said, "Right, inthat awfulplace I alsosaw Qiu Xiangyu! his conditiondoesn't look toogood. XiaoYi, is our team members targeted? Also… Wei Xu andFang Yunqi, I think I saw them! XiaoYi, it must be Liu Chen! That pettyguymust've beenresentfulwhenwe let him falltothe zombies, sohe colludedwith the research institute andalsousedhis father's connections todealwith us!"

"You saw Qiu Xiangyu?!" Xu Yi just noticedthis part, he was frightenedandaskedat once, "Thendidyou see a verytallman, a bit thin, phoenix eyes, thinlips with a windability?"

"You meanZhong Qiu?" Wang Gang's expressioncompletelydistortedat this name, his voice was fullof hatred. "Wind-type ability, nomistake that's him! He's the headof the research institute! He was the one whodidexperiments onme!"

Xu Yi took a step back without thinking, his whole countenance was incredulous. That strange zombie was actuallythe headof the vaccine research inB citybase? A zombie, researching the vaccine toendzombies for humans? How laughable, there's stillsuch a ridiculous thing inthe worldnow! Sothat's whyhe hadnever beenable totrack the other down, he was holedup inside the thirdgate's research institute this entire time — that place that zombies hate the most!

Andthe people that were caught; Wei Xu, Fang Yunqi, Wang Gang, andQiu Xiangyu, they've hadalldrank from his spring! That strange zombie hadindeedtook notice of the specialness of his spring, he must be planning toslowlycorner him andlet him make a slip! Noway, he can't continue like this! He neededtothink of a waytoget out of this situationas quicklyas he can! The other side is toopowerfulandhis side is tooweak — if he hadbadluck andwas caught, with his non-offensive healing ability, it's completelythe same as being fish onthe other's cutting board!

"XiaoYi, what's up with you?" Wang Gang was a bit confusedwith his ever-changing expression, he felt the him now was verystrange, andcouldn’t help changing the topic, asking instead, "Ah right, where's our team members? Whyhaven’t I seenthem?"

Xu Yi recoveredhis senses, he regainedhis usuallook, andthrew together some excuse todeceive him. A dark glint flash through Xu Yi's eyes. Him andthat strange zombie were alreadylockedina fight todeath, the other side's fiercelystrong, allof his previous plans were now useless. He hadtothink of another way.

Ye Zhizhou took back the spiritualforce with care, he pattedYanZheng andWei Xu ontheir shoulders, signalling from them towithdraw. Once theyleft far enough from Xu Yi's andWang Gang's range of perception, he gave anOK sign, "There's noproblem. Wei Xu, you canget readytomake your move."

Wei Xu's tight expressionslightlyrelaxed, he felt somewhat complicated, "Dowe have todothat step? Xu Yi, he…"

"He's not at alllike what you think he is, wake up." YanZheng made a long face as he mendedhis sword, he lightlyfelt the swordscabbard. "Can't be soft hearted, andalsocan't show your weakness, otherwise you'llwaste everyone's effort. That space of his canhide him, we onlyhave this one chance tocapture him."

Wei Xu's eyes droppedlow, he nodded, andfor the rest of the wayhe remainedsilent.

The dayafter Wang Gang andXu Yi rejoinedtheystartedtogather the members of their smallsquadscatteredallover the place. Meanwhile, rumours of the research institute doing research onhumans theycapturedbegantospreadaroundthe base slowly, the base's atmosphere turnedtense.

Another daylater, Wei Xu intentionallychose the busiest time of the day, after noon, towalk out of the thirdgate. He was pallid, his eyes lookedat the institute with hatred. He walkedtohis home holding a disgruntledexpression. That same night, Xu Yi foundWei Xu.

The equipment sent out a crisp 'beep beep', Zhong Qiu woke up from his light doze, he strode tothe machine andopenedit, taking out a dark blue formula from inside carefully, he sealedit properlyandput it away, andfinallythumbedthrough the data from the test.

Ye Zhizhou sat up andrubbedhis eyes, stillfuzzyfrom sleep whenhe asked, "What is it? The results are out?"

"XiaoChen."

"Ah?"

"The apocalypse is going toend." Zhong Qiu slowlyput downthe data, he hada deep expression, "The vaccine is successfullydeveloped, we canfinallyhave our wedding night."

Ye Zhizhou's drowsiness disappearedina blink of aneye, he first felt surprised, thenembarrassedtoanger, he rushedover tohit him, "You dirty-brainedbastard! Is now the time tobe talking about that!?"

Zhong Qiu huggedhim injoy, his headloweredandhe planteda kiss onhis forehead, "XiaoChen, everyone's hardships canfinallyend."

The fist he wavedforwardwas lowered, pausing inthe air before theyembracedZhong Qiu's neck. He nestledhis face onthe other's neck, sticking close against the graduallychilling body. "En… whenyou get better I'llcook something for you." This manmade himself intothis sort of monster inorder todevelop the vaccine, now the dark days willfinallyend.

Inside the base, the windof oppositiontothe research institute rose, leading it were the ones incharge of the base's security, the Wei family. The base residents repeatedlydealt blows the thirdgate infury. Theytook a night tofinallybreak through with a strike of anabilityuser.

Xu Yi followedbehindWei Xu through the thirdgate, speaking quickly, "Let's killZhong Qiu first thenrescue Xiangyu, he hadbeenlockedup for solong, he might not last anylonger!"

Hearing this, Wei Xu's steps paused, but he quicklyconcealedit andnoddedback, "Don't worry, he willbe saved." Just not byyou.

Wang Gang, whose bodyhadbeenreformedbythe spring, brandishedhis large axe with a vicious expressiononhis face, "Sonof a bᴉtch Zhong Qiu! Today, I, Wang Gang must cut him topieces! Brother Wei! I misunderstoodyou before, I didn’t expect you’dhave the courage todothis. You alsoknow that theywere belittling you, andyou respondbygathering people tostrike back!! Once the Zhong familyfalls, won't this base be allunder your Wei family? Whenthat time comes, you canget us your brothers a smallpositiontomanage."

Wei Xu frownedindisgust andspedup his steps forward. Xu Yi pulledonWang Gang, hinting tohim tostop speaking nonsense. This Wei Xu was nolonger the goodsquadleader whoprotectedhim wholeheartedlybefore, theyare now onlytemporarilyworking together because theyhatedthe same person. It's a criticalmoment right now, soit's better tonot provoke the other man.

The research institute is locatednear the centre of the base andthe guardis extremelytight. It took Wei Xu andXu Yi's team a lot of effort tobreak through the severallayers of protections andreach the centre.

Theymovedalong the winding maze-like corridors for a long while, walking past room after room with unknownpurposes. Xu Yi couldn’t bear it anymore, "Brother Wei, where exactlyXiangyu is being kept? Andthat Zhong Qiu…didn't you sayhe wouldusuallypatrolaroundthese parts, but whyhaven't we seenhim from the start?"

Wei Xu halted, andtiltedhis headtohim, "XiaoYi, doyou want this apocalypse toend?"

"Of course I wish for its end, " Xu Yi lookedat him baffled, but consideredandeasedhis expression, saying, "Brother Wei, I know you're worriedthat if Zhong Qiu is killedthe vaccine's development willbe affected, but this worldhas somanyintelligent people. Is Zhong Qiu the onlyone capable of making the cure? Moreover, evenif there's nocure, the spring I have cansuppress the zombie virus ina similar fashion. Once we wrap up this matter, I'm willing toprovide the water from myspring for free untilthe daythe cure is made."

"Provide spring water for free…." Wei Xu murmuredthese, abruptlyhis headdippedandhe let out a bitter laugh. He movedback andopenedthe room next tohim, "Xu Yi, I reallyregret meeting you at that time."

After saying that, he duckedintothe room andclosedthe door, locking it behindhim.

[Probabilityof Wei Xu falling inlove with the protagonist has fallento0%. Congratulations tothe host for removing the thirdflag, maythe host persist inhis efforts.]

Ye Zhizhou glancedat the system's screenthenat Zhong Qiu whowas looking at the monitor. "We're taking him?"

Zhong Qiu lookedback tohim, he took out a few vaccine vials from the freezer box. He smiledtohim, "Taking him. I'llgoinmyself."

Inthe corridor Xu Yi was stunnedbyWei Xu's baffling actions, he ranup tothe door andhit it angrily, "Brother Wei, what is this? Whyare you shutting yourself in? Brother Wei!"

"XiaoYi, step aside." Wang Gang pulledhim awaywith a gloomyface, he liftedup his axe, chopping downthe door intwo, "We don't needtowork with this coward! Wei Xu, come out if you're stilla man! I willspare your life!"

A burst of strong winds suddenlyrushedup from the depths of the corridor, making everyone unsteadyontheir feet.

Xu Yi's face changedabruptly, his headleanedtowatch the corridor andhe movedback a little, using Wang Gang's bodytoshieldhis own.

Wang Gang's face immediatelyscrunchedup, he cursedout, "Zhong Qiu, you bastard. Show yourself! I willcut you topieces today!"

"Bastard, are you talking about yourself?"

A coldvoice unexpectedlyrose behindthem. Xu Yi turnedback sharplyonlytomeet Zhong Qiu's yellow eyes opposite of him.

"Wang Gang, saving you is something I shoulddo, noneedtothank me." With that, he stabbedhis loadedsyringe directlytoWang Gang's neck while his leg stretchedout tokick Xu Yi awayfrom his side.

Xu Yi was startledbyhim. He turnedinaninstant andhidbehindthe rest of the team andyelledout, "Zombie! There's actuallya zombie inside the lab! Everyone, quicklykillhim!"

Everyone was frightened, theyquicklyput Xu Yi behindthem toprotect him andwent toattack Zhong Qiu.

Zhong Qiu unhurriedlytook out a secondsyringe. He crossedover the attacking crowdandcame face toface with Xu Yi, lips spreadintoa smile, "I finallygot you, virus storage."

Feeling his gaze, Xu Yi's scalp turned numb, now thinking his previous planof relying onnumbers to kill Zhong Qiu was too naiveand deluded. Hehad definitely seenmoresickening zombies, however, coming faceto facewith Zhong Qiu who looked just likea human, hefelt fear from thebottom of his heart.

Thewinds inthecorridor grew stronger and stronger. Ina blink of aneye, Zhong Qiu had disappeared from wherehewas. All of their attacks fell through, and everyonepanicked. Not waiting for them to regaintheir senses, a blur of whiteflashed through thecorridor and slipped closeto each of their bodies, tenor so seconds later thepeoplewho werestanding all fell to theground with a groan.

Thewind slowed down, a tall and thinfigureof a manwearing black framed glasses stood inthemiddleof thefallencrowd, scalpel inhand.

Xu Yi helplessly looked as his comrades ontheground, theincreasing fear hefelt madehim takea few steps back, asking inpanic, "Who areyou? Where's Zhong Qiu!"

Liang Ping leaned his head a littleto look at him, and turned away indislike, hetook out a durianfrom his pockets and looked it, thenlooked at him and frowned, "Durian's still much cuter thanyou." Thenheturned and left quickly into thecorridor

"Wereyou looking for me?"

A chilling voicecamefrom his behind and his back stiffened, hequickly stepped forward and turned to facehim, eyes widestaring at Zhong Qiu, his voicewas shaking, "W-why haveyou beencontinuously chasing mewithout letting go, I'venever harmed you!" Thesituationright now was unfavorable, it is not suitableto beentangled anymore, hemust quickly find a way to retreat!

Zhong Qiu fiddled with thevaccineinhis hand, hetwisted his lips, "I don't likenonsense." Strong winds roseup again, but under Zhong Qiu's control it circled a rangeof onemetrefrom Xu Yi, likeaninvisiblecage.

YanZheng led a team of soldiers out of a room at theend of thecorridor, hewaved his hand, "Tieup thosepeopleontheground and takethem to theobservationroom, inject morevaccines to theones that cried theloudest, thentakethem to thequarantine."

Thesoldiers shouted yes and quickly sprung to action.

Wei Xu cameout of theroom from before, glancing at Xu Yi beforewalking to Zhong Qiu's side. "Wrap this up quickly, don't play around anymore."

"You'retheoneplaying." Zhong Qiu refuted his words codly thenturned to look at Xu Yi and compassionately warned him, "Don't try to run, if you takejust onestep out of theborder thosecutelittlewind blades will cut openyour flesh and strip you to thebones."

Xu Yi who was ready to spring into actionstopped abruptly. His composed facelooked back and forth betweenWei Xu and Zhong Qiu, helet out a bitter laugh, "Wei Xu, you betrayed me."

"I am trying to saveyou." Wei Xu indifferently watched him, his gazeneither cold nor warm, "Xu Yi, intheend, you aremost clear of what thespring is actually madeof. Don't hurt anyoneanymore."

Thesneer onXu Yi's faceturned rigid, and his expressionbecamegloomy. Heturned his head away and didn't look at him again.

Thepeopletied up weretakenaway, YanZheng finally could relax his tight nerves, heasked Zhong Qiu, "How do you want to deal with this virus carrier? Directly kill him?"

"Inject thevaccinefirst and seehow he'll do, and then, hm, pry openhis brainand destroy thecrystal core."

Xu Yi's complexionpaled and his body trembled whenheheard thesewords,from thecorner of his eye, hesaw Zhong Qiu starting to openthevaccine, hebit his lips and stealthily used his ability, right infront of their eyes heentered thespace.

"Hehid as expected." Zhong Qiu injected thevaccineinto his ownarm. Shrugging his shoulder ina bored manner, "Seal up this corridor, start all surveillance, spread thevaccinethroughout theentirebuilding oncemore."

"It canonly belikethis." YanZheng was a bit dissatisfied with this outcome, but there's no other way. Wei Xu heaved another sigh and returned to silence, heturned around to walk towards Qiu Xiangyu's observationroom.

Thematter has cometo theend, theremaining thing to do is to wait idly for their cornered prey and somemiscellaneous things to wrap things up.

Every day, YeZhizhou would go to thesurveillanceroom to check thesituationintheobservationroom, thenvisit theteam members who wereinjected with thevaccineand undergoing their treatments with Qiu Xiangyu. Whenoneof themembers fully recovered theloveprobability betweenhim and theprotagonist dropped downto 80%. After that, hewent ona hunger strikeand theloveprobability didn't budgeanymore. YeZhizhou pondered as hewatched Qiu Xiangyu whoseeyes werefull of thewill to die. Hetook him to thesurveillanceroom and pointed to thewall full of screens and described Xu Yi's situationinsuccinct words. Qiu Xiangyu sat onhis wheelchair, unblinkingly watched themonitors, still unwilling to talk or eat.

YeZhizhou stayed silent for a long timewhenthenutrient fluid was failing insustaining Qiu Xiangyu's body which was indireneed of nourishment after getting thevaccine. DespiteWei Xu's protests hecarried Qiu Xiangyu into thecorridor they had cornered theprotagonist into. Thelong timethey spent with each other had deepened Qiu Xiangyu's feelings for theprotagonist. Evenwhenheheard a lot of terribletruths about him theloveprobability still didn't drop, it was to thepoint that hehad chosento go onhunger strikewhenhefound out theprotagonist's might not bedoing very well, so that hecould help his beloved. Themissionwas unableto proceed at this moment, becauseof his ownselfishness, hehoped that Qiu Xiangyu canget better and hoped evenmorethat theprotagonist would havea bit of conscience, and would comeout whenhesees Qiu Xiangyu's stateright now to calm him.

Two days passed likethis, Qiu Xiangyu obstinately stayed ontheplaceXu Yi had disappeared, hedidn't sleep or moveand slowly his breathing grew weaker. That day, at dawn, theprotagonist who had refused to show himself and retreated insidehis spacefinally appeared.

YeZhizhou was looking at thetwo ineach other's embraceinthemonitor, and Xu Yi, who was saying something agitatedly, helet out a sigh.

"Xiangyu, help me, as long as I canescapefrom here, I candefinitely restoreyou to your peak state!"

"Xiao Yi." Qiu Xiangyu's raised a hand to strokehis hair, a gentlesmileappeared onthebeautiful tender face, "If only you'd told meeverything from thestart, how good is it. I certainly wouldn’t havelet you becomelikethis."

"Xiangyu!" Xu Yi felt a bit exasperated, "Will you help meor not?! Right now inthis place, only you canhelp me!"

Qiu Xiangyu attentively madeout what sentiments heheld inhis eyes, thehopeinhis owneyes died out bit by bit, "Xiao Yi, it'll beokay if you only look at me, just you and me…. Is that no good?"

"You— Ah!"

YeZhizhou stared wideat themonitor screen.

A metal spikeappeared out of thinair and quickly penetrated Xu Yi's back, passing through his heart, rancid dark red blood flowed out slowly. Qiu Xiangyu raised his hand and felt theblood whilesighing, "Xiao Yi, as I thought, you'reno longer human… But it doesn't matter." Helifted his head up and used his hands infected by Xu Yis' blood to strokehis wideopeneyes, thencovered them gently, "I'll accompany you, don't beafraid."

A new pieceof pointed metal finished forming inhis hand. Qiu Xiangyu held Xu Yi's fallenbody as heturned towards thesurveillancecamera, his mouth formed theshapeof 'thank you'. Then, heended his lifewithout hesitation.

Dark red and bright red blood mixed together around thetwo dead bodies. YeZhizhou raised his hands to hold his face, swallowing back his 'don't' inhis throat. Why… why is it likethis…

[No signs of lifefrom Qiu Xiangyu and theprotagonist. Thefourth flag is gone. All of theflags from this world has beenremoved.]

[Missionaccomplished. Will thehost begoing to thenext world?]

Hechose'no' inhis mind and rubbed his face. Hewatched thetwo bodies that had fallentogether to theground for a few seconds beforesounding thealarm, "Xu Yi is dead, start thecleaning procedureintenminutes. All departments pleasebeprepared."

Zhong Qiu was examining patients intheobservationroom at thetimeof thebroadcast, hepaused what hewas doing whenheheard thebroadcast and ranto thesurveillanceroom. YanZheng, Wei Xu, Liang Ping…… all of them dropped what they weredoing and assembled to YeZhizhou's sidewithout hesitation.

OnceXu Yi died, his spacereally did spread out theviruses, Zhong Qiu used theplanthey agreed on, spraying thecorridor full with thevaccineand continued to seal it for month.

Threemonths later thevaccinewas sent to every corner of theearth. Six months later, thespread of zombievirus was controlled. Oneyear later thehigh level zombies stopped having upgrades, their numbers also decreased. At threeyears, all countries had dealt with thezombies and dead bodies and restorationof cities began, and at fiveyears theworld finally looked as peaceful as beforetheapocalypse.

Theday that thewalls of thebaseweredemolished, YeZhizhou set up a largefeast, invited all of their friends and family and held a small privateengagement with Zhong Qiu. They drank a lot that day. Thenext day at dawnheleft thebasefor a littlemound outsidethebaseand worshipped anunnamed grave.

Several decades later helaid together with Zhong Qiu hand inhand, watching theclouds ona bluesky with a smileonhis face, "I really want to know your real name…. Forget it, I'll go to thenext world and look for you, remember to wait for me."

Heclosed his eyes and nestled further into his lover’s embracethat gradually lost its warmth. Insidehis mind heopened thesystem and choseto enter thenext world.

Therewas thesound of rain, peoplefighting, things falling to theground, and a door being slammed.

YeZhizhou's consciousness left thedarkness and gradually entered thereality. Hesat up onthebed, and found hewas ina warm and spacious room. Onthecorner was a basketball, onthewall hung a badmintonracket, whenheexamined his stretched out hand hefound a sports watch, a wrist guard, and delicateskinbelonging to a young man.

Seemed liketheoriginal owner of thebody this timewas a good boy who liked sports.

Onthebedsidetablewas a photo frame, hepicked it up and looked at it. It was a photo of two boys, onelooked delicateand theother warm and open, they exuded a senseof joy and youthfulness. Thepicturewould makeonesmilewithout noticing. YeZhizhou looked at theclock hanging onthewall, half past four intheafternoon, maybetheoriginal body was taking a nap.

Ignoring all of thenoiseoutsideof theroom, hesearched around thebed until hefelt out a small pink mirror shaped likea cat head from thequilt, hestayed silent, "Tongtian, areyou excited to beableto usepink again?"

Theadditional fakeplumetail below themirror shifted, it thenpopped openwith a click, revealing a pill.

"What is this?"

[Previous world's missionreward, transformationpill.]

"What sort of thing?" YeZhizhou rubbed his eyes.

[Transformationpill, it canincreasecultivationby a hundred years. Instantly transforming into a humanwouldn't bea dream, thelegendary pill for demons, theultimatehelper of interspecies love. Useonepill, happiness for a hundred years.]

YeZhizhou laughed grimly, his hands tugged and played with themirror's faketail, "I seeyou'vegoneblind, to actually think of meas a demon. Here, I'll help you fix your eyes."

Thesmall mirror trembled, it quickly enlarged thescreenand shoved it up his face, and madly threw out thedata.

YeZhizhou gritted his teeth, but intheend hereleased him, and focused onthedata.

This world's protagonist is Si Han, male. His mother was a danceteacher, father a successful businessman, and hegrew up inluxury. Hehad a childhood sweetheart, Xing Guan, who is this world's malelead number one.

At fiveyears old, Si Hanand Xing Guanwerekidnapped, Xing Guanwas rescued intheend, but Si Hanhad gonemissing. Si Han's mother Zhong Min's inherent naturewas soft, this blow madeher mind unstableand shebecamedepressed. Zhong Minhad a younger sister named Zhong Kewho had died young who had a sonnamed QinBao. Si Han's father Si Youqianfound QinBao by chanceand took him into thefamily. heforced QinBao to remember all of Si Han's physical habits and madehim act as Si Haninfront of his wife.

QinBao was about seventy to eighty percent similar to Si Han, aided with Zhong Min's unstablemind at that time, this play of mistaking her ownbiological sonnaturally cameto be. Seeing this, Si Youqiansimply went all in, heerased all traces of QinBao intheorphanage, changed his nameinto Si Hann, and madehim liveusing Si Han's identity.

Ontheother hand, Si Hanwho escaped from his kidnappers by a flukehid inthetrunk of a black taxi. As a result, hewas carried off to thefar-off H city. Hefound out later that theowner of theblack taxi was anold deaf and mutecouple.

Threeyears later, QinBao gradually grew up and forgot his memory as a child, under Si Youqian's unrelenting brainwashing hewas certainthat hewas thereal Si Han, hechanged his nameinto Si Hannand lived as Si family's youngest son. During this, thereal Si Hanstayed with theold couplefor oneyear beforethey left him inanorphanage. After onemoreyear, a school teacher adopted him and hemoved to W city, and met themalelead number two — his adoptivefather Wei Jianjun's only son, Wei Songning.

Tenyears later, Si Hann(who's really QinBao) passed theexam for B university, whiletheprotagonist, thereal Si Hanwho changed his nameinto Wei Sihanafter being adopted was also accepted into B university. Thetwo coincidentally werestudying thesamemajor, and got assigned to thesamedorm room. From heretheill fatebetweenthem started.

TheSi Hanat that moment had forgottenall of his childhood, whileQinBao held somesuspicions inhis subconscious. Whenhemet Si Hanwho was very similar to him and had analmost identical namewith him, his memory started to comeback. Heslowly recalled someof thethings from thepast.

Oncethedoubt set, it was difficult to get rid of it. Hegot a privateinvestigator to check about Si Hanand secretly looked for clues at home. Oneweek later, theprivateinvestigator hadn't found anything useful whilehehad found anold album at his house, intheir old house's attic. There, hefound a photo of small Si Hanwith his family. From thenonhefinally accepted thefact that hewas a fake.

Unableto bear thetruth and evenmoreafraid that oncethereal Si Hanappeared hewould becast asideby his family, QinBao started to attack thereal Si Haninvarious ways, not expecting his act to benoticed by his elder brother Si Yue. Out of concernfor his littlebrother, Si Yuesecretly commissioned his good friend Wei Zhuang, malelead number three, to look into his recent affairs and about thepeoplehemet. Hewanted to check if his brother was being bullied.

Wei Zhuang was someonewho thinks outsidethebox, his skill ingetting informationwas top notch. Hegot all of Si Han's details injust a week. Whilehewas investigating, hewas slowly moved by Si Hanwho unrelenting positivity. Whenhetold this shocking truth to Si Yue, hespared no words intalking about Si Han's good points and criticising QinBao's bullying.

Si Yuewho now knew thetruth was shocked. Herushed homeand told his father thenews and thefairytaleprinceSi Hanfinally entered thecenter of thestory. Meanwhile, as QinBao bullied Si Hanmoreharshly, his friends and family grew to detest thefakesubstitute.

Becauseheregularly sustained injuries from thebullying, Si Hanfrequented theschool infirmary sincethestart of school, and got into theuniversity doctor's favour — who was thefourth malelead, Lu Chen. Later, whiledoing a part timejob from school hegot theadmirationof thefifth malelead — a singledad, HeJing. Now, all of themaleleads haveall appeared.

YeZhizhou hand stopped flipping through thepages, dumbfounded. How canit bea gay world again? What's more, there's anincreaseinmaleleads…

Hequickly flipped through themessy lovebetweenthesix peopleuntil hegot to theworld destructionpart of thestory.

QinBao finally madea big enough mistakethat sent him to theprison, and later died a miserabledeath inthere. Around this timetheprotagonist was living happily with thefivemaleleads. Threeyears later, themaleleads who had becameoutstanding ineach of their professions met with unreasonablesuppressionfrom anunknownperson. They wereangry and confused, but therewereno clues. It was Wei Zhuang who found theevil mastermind behind thescenes by using his family's influences.

It turns out that beforeQinBao's biological parents had him, they had adopted a mixed-blood child. However, theyear that QinBao was born, thechild was found by his family and takenback to their country, leaving no traceof his existence.

After his parents passed away from theaccident, QinBao was throwninto theorphanage. Si Youqiantook him out and erased all traces of QinBao being inthat orphanage. QinBao thenlived using Si Han's identity.

Theadopted child grew up and becameindependent. Hetravelled back to repay theQincouplewho took him in, only to find out that they had died, and thesoft littlebrother inhis memory grew up as someoneelse, and finally evendied miserably injail! Inhis anger, themixed-blood manmadly struck back, firstly at Si Youqian, following that, Si Hanand themaleleads.

Thecountry's leader rushed to check thesituationwhenthey noticed that something was wrong, but unfortunately hewas caught ina terrorist attack and died. What's worse, thesonof that foreignguest was following thecountry leader to seewhat thecommotionwas about and as a result also died with him.

Thedisputebetweenthetwo countries started from this. Afterwards, through this butterfly wing effect, thestateof theworld grew morechaotic. Not evendecades would past beforetheworld war brokeout, and yet themainculprits who caused this war had long dropped dead from old age.

YeZhizhou switched off thescreenand looked up to theceiling. What canhesay, hm? What's theneed for such a world that is easily destroyed? Every timeheread thecauseof each world's destructionhelost all hope, okay.
