Newspaper commentators predicted a Second World War in 1936, but it hadn't yet begun . Another devastating disaster has come.
"Soullesser " have been found in every region, and the Eastern world calls them "zombies". They were all once humans: they used to have self-consciousness that could chat and laugh with their loved ones, but when the next morning light rises, the luster fades in their eyes. They move like soulless puppets, numbly waving their hands to attack awake humans.
The "Soullesser" do not avoid from harm as if they have no sense of pain. Regardless of whether they are severely injured or missing limbs, their blood-soaked bodies will still leap tirelessly to attack the survivors. Like a severed snake head that can still bite with reflex nerves.
Their behavior ... Just like executing instructions...
The "Soullesser" linger on the streets. If survivors are found, they will be cut into pieces. If survivors are injured with blood marks, they will become "Soullesser" within seven days.

During 1936, Norton Campbell was searching for survival supplies in an abandoned large-scale supermarket chain called TESCO. He rolled up his sleeves. With a sweep of his hand, he stacked all the shelves' inventories in sacks.

Suddenly, his eyes narrowed as he observed a crimson spider making its way onto his leather footwear. Swiftly, he turned his head and beheld a dense swarm of various insects converging upon him.
For sure, he could not allow the perpetrator to escape. He took off the magnet hanging from his belt,exposed his upper arm and threw it toward the woman's back.

The magnet struck the woman's back, causing her to take a step forward in an attempt to flee. However, invisible forces in the air restrained her, compelling her to fall uncontrollably into a firm embrace, though she remained unaware of this person's temperature , the back of her head was forcefully pressed down. The man secured her hands and pressed her against the platform.

It was her again... Melly Pliny...
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDrImEv2tnQ
With a sinister expression, Norton roughly removed the woman's mask. This encounter marked not their first meeting.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbEvnpnP2Mq
Both of them are” Alien Survivors “, humans who awaken unique abilities and talents when the world begins to crumble.

The surviving human factions were divided into two groups. The royal government and the military, boasting the largest numbers, possessed advanced weaponry, expansive territories, and technical resources. They were occasionally tasked with safeguarding civilians. The second group was the Consortium Alliance, a combination of multinational corporations and traditional nobility. Though smaller in size, they possessed abundant provisions and would employ survivors for protection.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpptYdxrlFM
A few scattered alliances of survivors constituted the third group. These temporary formations exhibited lax discipline and were primarily concerned with their own interests.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0LMX2hzz3E
Norton Campbell assumed the role of a bodyguard for an heir affiliated with a consortium during the apocalypse. However, when his boss was in danger, Norton did not exert his utmost effort to protect his employer.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlDzRWHDvol
The heir found himself surrounded by "Soullesser" and called for assistance, Norton merely uttered a single sentence: "No individual's life holds greater value than another's." He then proceeded to flee on his own.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ68TQWyltf4
Subsequently, Norton embarked on a journey, fleeing in various directions, not only to evade the "Soullesser" but also to evade the pursuit of the consortium forces, who had issued a reward for his capture.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJmezk9Uc8
Melly Pliny was notorious for her treacherous nature. She had murdered her highly esteemed husband, who held a prominent position in Congress. The government could no longer tolerate her actions, resulting in her face being featured on numerous official wanted posters.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Secj8oePQ
Norton and Melly had no alternative but to distance themselves from centers of human power and seek refuge in other locations. Consequently, their paths often intersected, as they both sought to secure supplies before the other party.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjbdl1VVyz
A mere week ago, they engaged in a direct confrontation, during which Norton Campbell narrowly escaped death from a venomous bee dispatched by Mellie.
Finally , having caught Melly Pliny, Norton experienced a surge of elation, exhaling deeply and raising his eyebrows in triumph !
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiFvsMdBXEp
Norton firmly grasped the back of Melly's neck, his green eyes brimming with murderous intent.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIT89NtOoFu
Melly struggled to breathe, her voice strained as she pleaded, "Release me… Soullesser are approaching."
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrwkyxB0AhK
Norton cast a suspicious glance around his surroundings and loosened his grip. He was aware of Melly Pliny's extraordinary abilities, enabling her to remotely survey her environment and swiftly ascertain his whereabouts.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvR8kbybba3
Nevertheless, he maintained a posture of intimidation, uncertain if this dangerous woman would turn against him.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSr1tnSfERb
"We have approximately one minute before they arrive. If we do not depart immediately, we will all die," Melly gasped, struggling to speak due to the suffocating sensation.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyQ0PwECpV3
Norton also detected subtle footsteps in the distance. He released Melly, snatched away her insect net, and leaped off the platform without looking back.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7nCO9zDsi
"Head east," Melly 's voice echoed from behind.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDiywxCgVzU
Melly was compelled to trail Norton, who intentionally led her in order to utilize her skills in finding the correct route.

204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJE2Rg4JJRd
They just sat leaning against the wall, Norton staring straight at Melly sitting on the other wall. She could detect the situation keenly, and he could avoid trouble by following her.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxvFlY5y2eT
Norton possessed a strong sense of direction and hardly relied on the compass attached to his waist. They navigated through alleys and streets until they stumbled upon a warehouse. Taking cover in separate corners, they faced each other from a distance.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKhuuzLyk9
Melly frowned and demanded, "Return the insect net to me."
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNQqNAeRYz4
Norton firmly declined, stating, "Don't even consider it." Only a fool would willingly invite trouble.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzXpxG4Iuuo
They sat against the walls, with Norton's gaze fixed on Melly, who possessed a keen awareness of their surroundings. By following her lead, he could avoid unnecessary complications.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8qtZ150WMt
A tense atmosphere of standoff persisted between them, yet neither dared to make a hasty move that would attract the attention of the "Soullesser" and leave them vulnerable.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJvpZj1sTd
Melly disregarded his intense stare and remained composed, her eyes closed. They lost track of time, only realizing the passage of hours when their throats grew parched.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡivbKSIZD8E
Norton rummaged through his backpack and discovered that his recent supermarket haul only consisted of daily necessities, lacking any food or water.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqe7f9SRWdE
Melly sighed softly and pointed to the iron door of the warehouse: "It seems that water and dry food are stored there."
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbVeOEqQu7
Norton was stunned. Although he harbored doubts about this woman, his bodily needs compelled him to seek water at any cost. He scrutinized the iron door and strained his ears, but its thickness prevented him from detecting any sounds.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyKH3T4FLP9
Suspicion filled Norton's gaze as he locked eyes with Melly's calm expression, unable to discern any emotions within her. After a brief hesitation, he picked up the axe and struck at the lock of the iron door.

! ! !
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFw8XAN5rtM
Inside, several "Soullessor" dressed in security uniforms emerged. They had been concealed in darkness until the sight of a living person triggered their frenzied charge. They rushed towards Melly and Norton with their teeth and claws open.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRoMFZo6Lry
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9rfgE6avcK
"Damn it! You bitch."
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXw2ctLq7CE
Norton's lips trembled with anger. He was defenseless. His magnet would malfunction in close proximity.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kwSoVIl9k
Norton clenched his teeth and turned around, purposefully sprinting towards Melly. His intention was to leave her among the "Soullessor" in order to delay her . To his surprise, Melly was already prepared. As he charged towards her, Melly exerted all her strength, delivering a powerful kick to his abdomen.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnNGgUWMzUp
Norton fell to the ground in pain, but his mind suddenly became alert, as if he had been injected with a stimulant. His survival instinct compelled him to use his feet to strike the "Soullessor" at a low angle, taking advantage of the opponent's compromised balance to bring them down slowly. As he rose to his feet, he raised his knife and decapitated the "Soullessor" .
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLlYxqDEX9
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp3QFqPojl3
The "Soullessor" needed to lose their brain nerves before they could be officially eliminated.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHxyNfPHyvA
Blood and brain matter splattered onto his pristine white vest and trousers, causing Norton to express his disgust. "Damn...my new clothes," he muttered.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUGHanCe73E
Melly Pliny had retrieved her insect net and was now running. She rode the swarm of insects, which acted as a buffer against air resistance, allowing her to move swiftly. Naturally, the enraged Norton chased after her. The physical disparity between men and women was significant, and after a few steps, he located her trace. He threw the magnet once again, successfully drawing Melly towards him.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5m3W287Iab
Grabbing her collar, he warned, "Don't attempt to flee, or I will send you to meet God this instant."
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIADzhgIOqG
Mellie lowered her gaze, observing his veined hands. "The crisis has been resolved, do your own business ." she stated.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JIoxLqXOV
"Huh? You deceived me. Do you think I will let you off easily?" Norton was always one to hold grudges.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpIJbLUOMy5
Melly sneered, "Then what is it that you desire? It appears that you have never hesitated to harm others in order to ensure your own survival."
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGmrlKU9ME
Both of them were aware of each other's unsavory reputations, fully acquainted with the sordid details.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryJbVCJtO7
"...Let us cooperate and form an alliance."
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNzAgwqj8Ys
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡod7gI30d0c
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzb1yrxSZdZ
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoyeNGnWECq
"Shit ! There are survivors present."
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLdYYfJ4VBs
Without hesitation, Norton swiftly retrieved his sack and grasped his axe with one hand. Employing the axe, he severed the rusty lock on the rear entrance of the supermarket. Stepping outside, he encountered a wooden ladder, which he climbed neatly to reach the rooftop of the establishment.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPtdEtF5HLw
From this elevated position, the wide view enabled him to spot a woman adorned with an insect mask near the front entrance, preparing to depart.

204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUBqY2BSDWn
Unlike these organizations, Norton faces the challenge of guarding against sudden crises, which sets him apart from other organizations that can arrange sentinel inspections. As he is constantly worrying about enemy attacks that prevent him from finding peaceful sleep , Norton requires Mellie's unique ability .
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzMl9B3kwJE
Despite possessing powerful containment and control abilities, Norton prefers to avoid direct confrontation with the "Soullesser" as much as possible. He is not driven by passion like some young and passionate boys ; rather, he simply desires a comfortable and easy life.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxbVtkeUnDt
Thus, Norton seeks to capture Melly Pliny, a fellow survivor who, like him, lacks a specific destination. Melly's ability to sense her surroundings can greatly reduce conflicts.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJXSj2EQihF
After rational consideration, Melly Pliny agrees to Norton's proposal, although she secretly despises individuals like him. While her ability proves useful for avoiding danger, she lacks the capability to attack the "Soullesser".
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm5gK6LNH2K
The peculiar man and woman cease their conflict and arrive at Norton's camp, where a simple tent and cooking utensils are set up. As someone who has been on the run for a prolonged period, Norton carries all his essential belongings, lacking a fixed residence.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpSHWcMlB6a
In front of Melly, Norton removes his shirt which is covered by blood dirt , revealing his muscular physique. Melly unabashedly gazes at the shirtless Norton, causing Norton to feel slightly embarrassed. He yells at her, exclaiming, "Don't you have anything better to do?"
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE3wcH5NnQK
Mellie shrugs nonchalantly and calmly responds, "Do you happen to have an extra tent available?"
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxijTIEtZjd
Norton's face contorts in contention as he retorts, "Where are your survival supplies? Don't tell me you don't have any."
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5o7qOVYWs0
"No, the government discovered my location, and I had to flee, leaving most of my supplies behind," Melly explains. Consequently, she took the risk of competing with others at the supermarket to acquire necessary resources.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6JnTti6G3W
"Ha…Frustrating... I don't care about your situation. Figure it out on your own," Norton curses, pouring water onto the laundry tray. He intends to devalue Mellie's worth, unwilling to lose his own possessions.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNyxhPvzoqL
Suddenly, a rigid object pressed against Norton's back, causing him to involuntarily break out in a cold sweat. It was a gun.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhiPOibw5Ve
Melly subtly curled her lips, remarking, "However, I have brought a firearm."
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6UHAyCMKB
To his dismay, this damn woman actually possessed a firearm, and now he found himself under her control. Norton regretted his decision to bring back this woman, who proved to be as venomous as a snake and would undoubtedly retaliate against him.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHMQyd4hUKT
In reality, Melly merely used the firearm as a means of intimidation. She had confiscated her husband's firearm, but it contained only two bullets. She intended to employ it solely in the most dire circumstances for the sake of survival.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMBGHn0Iw2
Norton clenched his teeth and demanded, "What is it that you desire?"
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8P6I16d3W
Melly issued a cold order, "Do not panic. I have no intention of employing it against a lowly individual such as yourself. Gather your belongings and accompany me in search of an abandoned dwelling." It would be preferable to meet an immediate demise rather than continue living in such a desolate wasteland.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0rCEEpJth
Melly had observed the presence of a locked manor in close proximity. It appeared that the owner had fled the area, as no one had entered or exited for an extended period of time. She found it to be an appealing prospect, particularly due to the presence of a garage, which would facilitate a swift escape.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNDj5aj4mIy
However, Melly could not venture inside alone, as several "Soullesser" roamed the vicinity. Thus, she required Norton to clear the path for her.
