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.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡojxqz1qFH9
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.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3eUEwgVJKQ
It was her again... Melly Pliny...
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxCJHaglcxh
With a sinister expression, Norton roughly removed the woman's mask. This encounter marked not their first meeting.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ75wvRF5Qld
Both of them are” Alien Survivors “, humans who awaken unique abilities and talents when the world begins to crumble.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQXOczw9K99
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.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5F4ghj7OWe
A few scattered alliances of survivors constituted the third group. These temporary formations exhibited lax discipline and were primarily concerned with their own interests.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5maJ53dXcm
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.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNTuQ1c2LbR
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.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGNz4UyDxp
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.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuTuJmVaH6N
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.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYubl9ccaMB
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.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1gfZPi8r4D
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 !
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMtZQ21Vq4
Norton firmly grasped the back of Melly's neck, his green eyes brimming with murderous intent.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Wd81jJDN4
Melly struggled to breathe, her voice strained as she pleaded, "Release me… Soullesser are approaching."
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDvBUPcOqLt
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.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7zs8zcEvNE
Nevertheless, he maintained a posture of intimidation, uncertain if this dangerous woman would turn against him.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsav1Fqi1qa
"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.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaSnYO5169D
Norton also detected subtle footsteps in the distance. He released Melly, snatched away her insect net, and leaped off the platform without looking back.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvjOW1qRWhb
"Head east," Melly 's voice echoed from behind.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Xq1lOOLOO
Melly was compelled to trail Norton, who intentionally led her in order to utilize her skills in finding the correct route.

203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Vj8gomAbY
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.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw7k3SK0iZ2
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.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEiISC3qTT
Melly frowned and demanded, "Return the insect net to me."
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZuyUqHsFdf
Norton firmly declined, stating, "Don't even consider it." Only a fool would willingly invite trouble.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd8wjAyYt0y
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.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHedi7DITjZ
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.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXaYVsre1hX
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.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh5x255Y0KP
Norton rummaged through his backpack and discovered that his recent supermarket haul only consisted of daily necessities, lacking any food or water.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡudsKKmRFNm
Melly sighed softly and pointed to the iron door of the warehouse: "It seems that water and dry food are stored there."
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGPgOUg6Z8G
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.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuFBHp75NLa
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.

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.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwzNuFPf40j
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuHusclzdIZ
"Damn it! You bitch."
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7glspTVCsj
Norton's lips trembled with anger. He was defenseless. His magnet would malfunction in close proximity.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ZVkp2G8XF
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.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDPdxXuJOh
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" .
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi7RKh40VzY
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡofOVDdh2xl
The "Soullessor" needed to lose their brain nerves before they could be officially eliminated.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡImtqfNIjrV
Blood and brain matter splattered onto his pristine white vest and trousers, causing Norton to express his disgust. "Damn...my new clothes," he muttered.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4IpqVmJrHJ
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.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡefRTMy4wKM
Grabbing her collar, he warned, "Don't attempt to flee, or I will send you to meet God this instant."
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtnIhg53CaW
Mellie lowered her gaze, observing his veined hands. "The crisis has been resolved, do your own business ." she stated.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ30mqRjL6wI
"Huh? You deceived me. Do you think I will let you off easily?" Norton was always one to hold grudges.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmK22DkRu89
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."
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY34y6IqRu8
Both of them were aware of each other's unsavory reputations, fully acquainted with the sordid details.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZpdXDq9i0
"...Let us cooperate and form an alliance."
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0mUdoIt5F4
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ltCGWNJ4h
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhseX2U5c9g
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI7Qybv1m1d
"Shit ! There are survivors present."
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN1cn5kwAvG
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.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhZ88aIyK8W
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.

203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGW342vQ6LH
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 .
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3P4smcHu8Q
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.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRL9dwLFqt1
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.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWggZOjZ0Ic
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".
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrLHEC1aWpw
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.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgUCS5TCnNO
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?"
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4mEFwP2jtc
Mellie shrugs nonchalantly and calmly responds, "Do you happen to have an extra tent available?"
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmBK52xKanv
Norton's face contorts in contention as he retorts, "Where are your survival supplies? Don't tell me you don't have any."
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdNdy1ibUk
"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.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1vyImFeH9t
"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.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9lmzF1whl
Suddenly, a rigid object pressed against Norton's back, causing him to involuntarily break out in a cold sweat. It was a gun.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLerGm9YIY
Melly subtly curled her lips, remarking, "However, I have brought a firearm."
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl0eZa846AT
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.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Sr0qxks58
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.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsE2w3iXLvu
Norton clenched his teeth and demanded, "What is it that you desire?"
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKY4DaBW06F
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.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnEhAHGAwqq
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.
203Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRuHGpPNFen
However, Melly could not venture inside alone, as several "Soullesser" roamed the vicinity. Thus, she required Norton to clear the path for her.
