Pain, excruciating pain enveloped Zhang Yi from head to toe.

It wasn't just a sensation, but a cruel reality that was occurring to him.

At that moment, he was being brutally beaten by friends and neighbors whom he once trusted and helped. Their fists, feet, and even sticks fell upon him like rain.

In these scarce times of the apocalypse, they had turned on him, forgetting the help he once offered, and struck him down for supplies!

As he lay dying, he dimly saw the goddess of his heart, Fang Yuqing, standing behind the crowd with a pitiable expression, shouting, "It was me who made him open the door, make sure I get an extra share of the supplies!"

It was this woman who had tricked Zhang Yi into opening his door and then led to his demise.

As he looked at her, his eyes filled with hate and regret.

He could only blame himself for being too naive and kind-hearted to be stepped on by others in this ruthless end of days.

How he wished for a chance to start over. Next time, he wouldn't show mercy to anyone and would live solely for himself!

Zhang Yi's vision went dark as he lost consciousness.

However, the very next moment, he suddenly opened his eyes and sat up from the couch.

The hellish scene he had just endured, the dreadful pain, was still fresh in his mind.

Gasping heavily, Zhang Yi's body was quickly soaked in sweat.

"What happened? Wasn't I killed by those beastly neighbors?"

After collecting himself, Zhang Yi began to take in his surroundings.

This place was familiar; it was his own house. But the comfortable temperature in the air surprised him.

Because in December 2050, Earth was affected by a supernova explosion a hundred thousand light-years away, which brought on a global Cambrian storm.

The global temperature plummeted. In Zhang Yi's Tianhai City, the average temperature was a chilling negative seventy degrees Celsius. A blizzard raged for a month, flooding the entire city with snow.

It was said that in the northern parts of China, the temperature had even reached a horrific negative hundred degrees, with the land completely buried in snow.

A mass extinction of various species ensued, and more than ninety percent of the human population perished in this disaster.

Zhang Yi stood up and took out a bottle of water from the refrigerator and drank down half of it in one go.

Though the refrigerated water was very cold, for him at that moment, it was as precious as the finest nectar.

During those apocalyptic times, the only way to get water was to venture outside in the extreme cold of negative seventy degrees, digging snow to melt into water—a job that could easily lead to death by freezing.

After drinking the water, Zhang Yi checked his phone.

It showed the date, "November 12th."

There was still a whole month until the end of the world.

"It seems I've been reborn," Zhang Yi took a deep breath, quickly realizing what had happened.

That month could not have just been a dream, especially not the excruciating pain of being torn apart.

Looking up, the relief in his heart sparkled with excitement for surviving such an ordeal.

At the same time, his eyes flashed with a sharp resolve.

He vividly remembered those who had killed him. In this life, he was determined to survive, but no longer would he show mercy to those beasts.

And under the premise of ensuring his own safety, he had to exact his ruthless revenge.

But for now, Zhang Yi had to consider how to survive the coming apocalypse in one month.

His personal living conditions were fairly good.

His parents had passed away early, leaving him a 120 square meter house in Tianhai City. He had over two million in savings, which under normal circumstances was quite comfortable.

Yet, come the apocalypse, there would be a severe shortage of global resources.

The money he had wouldn't last long because surviving alone required a vast amount of supplies.

With the opportunity to prepare in advance, Zhang Yi didn't just want to survive, he wanted to ensure a certain quality of life in the future—food, entertainment, mental health, all had to be taken into consideration to avoid a breakdown.

Furthermore, weapons and equipment were essential. Only with them could he ensure his safety and enact his revenge upon the neighbors.

Just then, a line of light suddenly appeared before Zhang Yi's eyes.
