With the system's explanation, the progress accelerated. Lu Jie watched as the few superhumans who managed to return to the Xuanhe underground base, their faces filled with despair and confusion. He shook his head.
"Reality is truly cruel."
Just when hope seemed to be on the horizon, the MR virus evolved and destroyed everything right behind it. Humanity could only shrink into underground bases and struggle to survive, spending more time trying to crack the virus again?
Lu Jie thought to himself.
There had been tens of thousands of them at first, but now only a handful remained, and of those, only three were women. Reproduction was becoming a problem for humanity.
Lu Jie guessed that these women would likely be reduced to mere tools for breeding, forced to mate with all the men.
However, things did not unfold as Lu Jie had expected.
"System, how did the mutated MR virus come about?" Lu Jie couldn't help but ask.
[The nuclear radiation from the bomb launched by the Lion Nation fifteen years ago triggered the mutation of the MR virus.]
"....." Lu Jie was speechless.
Damn those Lion Nation fools, they accidentally created the MR virus, triggering a global biological apocalypse. Damn those Lion Nation bastards who, in their fury, launched a nuclear bomb and destroyed humanity's hopes.
[While the host curses the Lion Nation and the Star Nation, an alarm suddenly goes off in the underground base.]
The system's voice startled Lu Jie, and his pupils constricted as he looked around.
"What's going on?!" Chief Biologist Elder Zhao shouted angrily.
"We're finished this time," one superhuman said bitterly, despair in their voice.
As the words were spoken, they silently pulled up the monitor.
On the screen, countless super zombies had breached the underground base, smashing through steel barriers and charging inside.
"How did they find us?" Elder Zhao's voice trembled.
"The mutated super zombies may have retained information about the Xuanhe Base in their brains," a biologist said with a pale face.
"This is impossible! If it's true..." Elder Zhao stammered. "If it's true, then they have intelligence. Or rather, they have developed rudimentary intelligence, a budding form of wisdom."
"Humanity has been eliminated."
Everyone collapsed onto the floor in despair.
Where could they escape to?
They were underground, with no way out. Several passages were already blocked.
"Activate the self-destruct sequence. At least we can take some of the super zombies with us," Elder Zhao said weakly.
His words left everyone in silence, but no one opposed it.
Finally, amidst crazed laughter, Elder Zhao and the others activated the self-destruct sequence. The entire survival base was destroyed in a massive explosion, burying everything beneath the ground.
Humanity was now completely extinct.
"Is this how humanity ends... Blue Star has turned into a dead planet. Such a tragic ending." Lu Jie sighed.
[While the host laments the end of humanity, another year passes. During this time, due to the gradual evolution of the super zombies, some have gained the intelligence of a ten-year-old child. They begin to unite ordinary zombies and wage wars for territory.]
The system's voice echoed, and Lu Jie began wandering the world, watching the war among zombies, which he found quite amusing.
[After several decades, the super zombies evolved and produced the first zombie king. It defeated or subjugated the other super zombies, becoming the sole ruler of Blue Star, with countless "beautiful" zombie concubines, becoming the winner of the zombie apocalypse.]
"......" Lu Jie was speechless.
He could understand the earlier part of the story, but the latter? What kind of bizarre plot twist was this?
What the hell was with the "beautiful" zombies?
He quickly teleported to the zombie king's domain. Upon seeing the so-called "beautiful" zombies, he was stunned.
Oh my god, true to the zombies' aesthetic, these "beautiful" zombies were all disgustingly grotesque, the only advantage being they were stronger than ordinary zombies — all were super zombies.
Hiss... In the world of super zombies, is strength equated with beauty?
Lu Jie couldn't help but think of the Amazonian tribe in One Piece.
Hmm, this was probably the worst portrayal of the Amazonian tribe ever.
[As the host feels disgusted, five more years pass. Just as the zombie civilization begins to show signs of growth under the guidance of the zombie king, a meteorite, whose trajectory was altered by cosmic shifts, crashes into Blue Star. The impact destroyed the zombie civilization, triggering natural disasters and a cataclysmic wave that wiped out all the zombies.]
The system's voice continued, and Lu Jie looked up just in time to see a massive fireball falling from the sky.
Seeing this terrifying sight, Lu Jie couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine.
This meteorite had to be at least 40 kilometers in diameter.
To put that in perspective, a meteorite larger than 100 kilometers could destroy the entire planet. A 40-kilometer meteorite, however, was enough to obliterate the entire Blue Star ecosystem.
Under Lu Jie's gaze, the massive meteorite slammed into Blue Star.
The entire planet shook, and a giant crater appeared as a terrifying shockwave radiated from the point of impact, sweeping across the world.
After that, tectonic plate movements, volcanic eruptions, violent storms, lightning, and thunder unfolded, painting a scene of true apocalyptic devastation.
In the end, even the zombie king was wiped out in terror.
The entire Blue Star underwent a massive cleansing, with a mass extinction event occurring.
[The impact of the massive meteorite caused upheaval on Blue Star for millions of years. In the end, only bacteria, fungi, and blue algae remained. Everything returned to the beginning.]
[This simulation has ended. Would you like to archive it?]
"......Archive it. Name it Biological Apocalypse: Meteorite Catastrophe," Lu Jie sighed deeply, speaking slowly.
[Archiving complete. Name set.]
The system's voice echoed, and Lu Jie felt his consciousness shift back to his rental apartment.
"The end result was total destruction... I really didn't expect this." Lu Jie rubbed his forehead, muttering to himself.
In the simulation, about 64 years passed before a large meteorite struck. Whether that would happen in the real world was another question.
But the system had said it was due to a celestial body being displaced, which was why it fell onto Blue Star.
It seemed like the system was just toying with him.
In the real world, astronomers hadn't detected such a phenomenon.
Lu Jie quietly cursed inwardly.
[While the host reflects, the system has issued a reward. The host has obtained a mutated MR virus.]
"Ugh, a mutated MR virus? What use do I have for this?" Lu Jie sucked in a cold breath.
Damn, a mutated MR virus. This thing could infect even superhumans, and there's no cure to combat it. If it leaks out, it could really be the end.
