"Dangerous item, cannot be collected. Hmm, just leave it there." Lu Jie muttered, not bothering with the mutated MR virus.
At this moment, his phone rang, causing him to raise an eyebrow.
"Hello, Lu Jie! Do you still want to keep your job? Why didn't you come to work yesterday?" As soon as Lu Jie answered, a furious roar came through the phone.
It was clearly his supervisor from the company.
"I quit." Lu Jie said nonchalantly, hanging up without any further words. He couldn't be bothered to engage in a long conversation.
Quitting without a backup plan made it hard to find a job later, but did he even care about those low-paying, miserable jobs right now?
"The simulated worlds are far more interesting than anything the real world has to offer." Lu Jie shook his head, then turned to his computer to play some competitive games to kill time.
He was no slouch when it came to gaming, and with his physical attributes now over twenty times that of an ordinary person, his abilities had reached an extraordinary level. His reflexes, speed, and coordination were all greatly enhanced.
As a result, he treated high-level competitive matches like they were training against bots.
This terrifying skill attracted the attention of several pro teams, with some even offering him an invitation. But he ignored them.
The next day, at 10 AM, Lu Jie finally waited for his simulation function to cool down.
"Host, would you like to start a new simulation or la saved world to interfere with the development of the 'Zombie Apocalypse: New Era' storyline?" The system asked.
"Wait, I can la saved world and interfere with its development?" Lu Jie was intrigued. "Oh, that's right, you mentioned this before."
He thought for a moment before choosing to lthe "Zombie Apocalypse: New Era" save file.
Well, the name "New Era" sounded a bit misleading now. When he first saw it, he really thought humanity would soar into a new future.
But in the end, humanity had been completely wiped out.
Still, Lu Jie wasn't bothered by it, so he left the name as it was.
Once he selected to lthe save file, his consciousness blurred, and he found himself in a familiar place.
"Back then, when I saw this scene, it was pretty exhilarating. But now, looking back, it's a little bittersweet," Lu Jie said, floating in the air as he watched the superhumans, with a mix of excitement and caution on their faces, leave the underground base and head to the surface to fight zombies. He sighed.
"System, I'm in an invisible, untouchable state, right? How can I interfere with the world's direction?"
"The host can choose to make themselves visible. The method of appearance is also up to you," the system explained.
"Got it," Lu Jie nodded before asking again, "What happens if I appear, die, or get infected by the mutated MR virus and become a super zombie?"
"This simulation will end, and the host will return to the real world without any other effects," the system replied.
"That's not bad. It's like having an unlimited respawn token," Lu Jie sighed with relief.
"Now I just need to figure out how to change the course of this world," Lu Jie pondered.
At that moment, the system's voice sounded again: "While the host was thinking, one year passed. The superhumans established several outposts and successfully occupied the first small city, Huiyang."
"Why are you speeding up the timeline like this? Don't do that anymore, listen to my instructions," Lu Jie's lips twitched as he ordered.
"Although the host has been expressing his heartfelt thoughts about this system, this system will still obey the host's command," the system replied.
"...," Lu Jie was speechless. Was the system trying to be cute?
Huiyang City was currently the best outpost established by the superhumans.
Well, it wasn't much to brag about. They had cleared out the zombies inside, but in terms of size and facilities, it was lacking. The defensive structures were still not sufficient.
It would be another year before they established the largest survival fortress, Hope Fortress, which could withstand the attack of ordinary zombies.
Of course, it was impossible to completely resist the super zombies.
After all, super zombies were monsters that could smash through steel walls. Even a tall, thick city wall would eventually crumble if given enough time.
But all that didn't concern Lu Jie for now. He was focused on a problem: how to change all of this.
"Mutated MR virus," Lu Jie narrowed his eyes.
Regarding the mutated MR virus, Lu Jie could clearly see that while MR virus spread through the air, it couldn't infect superhumans.
The tragedy occurred because a few of Lin Hua's exploration team members were attacked by mutated tyrants carrying the mutated MR virus factor. They were injured, which weakened their immune systems. The virus then spread through their blood, further deteriorating their immunity.
In the end, Lin Hua and the others resisted for about eight hours before succumbing to the virus and turning into super zombies during the night.
Although MR virus was terrifying, it wasn't as fast as the T-virus in infecting humans. It took a long time to incubate unless the victim suffered severe injuries or died right away.
With a deadly injury or death, the infection would progress within seconds.
Now, Lu Jie took the mutated MR virus.
Looking at the crimson substance inside the special glass vial, he exhaled slowly.
"Host has obtained the Mutated MR Virus. You are surprised to find that you now know everything about Elder Zhao's experiences before his death," the system's voice suddenly rang out.
Lu Jie froze for a moment, his mind filling with new information. He raised an eyebrow.
"So, this is possible? Looks like I can better play the role of a god now." Lu Jie muttered to himself.
Soon, in his invisible, untouchable state, he drifted like a ghost into the office where Elder Zhao and other human leaders were having a meeting.
As they were brainstorming their next steps, Elder Zhao and the others furrowed their brows and looked toward the door.
The door had opened on its own.
They were in the middle of a meeting, and for someone to enter without knocking was an extremely rude behavior.
Just as Elder Zhao and the others were about to scold the intruder, their pupils shrank, and their faces turned pale with suspicion.
Because although the door opened, no one entered.
Then, the door closed on its own.
This scene was enough to make anyone think they had encountered a ghost.
At that moment, under the horrified gazes of Elder Zhao and the others, a figure cloaked in black mist appeared in front of them like a demon.
Before they could speak, Lu Jie was immediately surrounded by elite guards, cold weapons pointing at him, their eyes full of vigilance.
"Now this is quite the enthusiastic welcome. But you can't kill me." Lu Jie smiled faintly, ignoring the blades, walking toward them.
In fact, the blades passed right through his body.
This bizarre scene made Elder Zhao and the others shudder in fear.
"Are you a man or a ghost?"
Although they were experts in their respective fields, witnessing such a strange occurrence made them instinctively think of ghosts and spirits.
