After Luan Qing Xiao died, she broke away from the E-rank world and returned to the real world. At this time, it has been three months since she first entered the mission world.
Luan Qing Xiao received the bonus of one hundred thousand yuan, but this bit of money was just a drop in the bucket for her debt. Therefore Luan Qing Xiao followed 520 to the D-rank world: [Zombie Frenzy] after three days of reconditioning herself in the real world.
【Ding! Long time no see, Host dada~ 520 will start introducing the plot to you. 】
【In 216x, nearly four-fifths of all the humans in the world were infected with the zombie virus overnight and became unconscious walking corpses. These zombies see the remaining humans as food and are afraid of the sun. Once sunlight touches their body, their bodies will burn to ashes. So they hide away during the day and appear again at night. Zombies were exceptionally sensitive to the scent of living people, and get more companions by injecting viruses into them through their teeth. 】
【The remaining one-fifth of the people who aren't infected with the virus were divided into two categories; one being those with superpowers, and the others who were ordinary people. Zombies only convert ability users into fellow zombies and use ordinary people as food. 】
【Host dada’s current identity is a scientist who has awakened the dual abilities of water and plant simultaneously, and a member of the X Squadron. This world has configured eight compulsory plots for the host. Please take care in approaching this mission~】
Luan Qing Xiao: I remember in the previous world, I drew a continuation skill named [Clearing Your Wish List] using the last 10% of the happiness level, which will take effect after I enter the next world.
【Ding! Yes, Host dada. 520 will immediately activate [Clearing Your Wish List] for Host dada.】
【Ding! [Clearing Your Wish List] is successfully activated. Now, one wish will be randomly selected from the ten wishes written in [Clearing Your Wish List] by Host dada. Ding! The extraction was successful. Congratulations to the host for fulfilling this wish: Successfully replacing this world’s female lead with the previous world’s female lead, "Nie Zhen'er.” 】
Hearing 520’s words, Luan Qing Xiao loosened her clenched fist. Her palms were soaking wet.
A faint smile appeared on her face: Thanks, 520.
Thank God it was Nie Zhen'er.
【Ding! Since the male lead completely blackened in the previous world and he failed to kill the Host, it has triggered [Lingering Soul]. The male lead of this world will be replaced by "Liang Yan,” moreover this "Liang Yan" will also retain their memory of the previous world like Host. Starting right off the bat, "Liang Yan" will begin with 100% blackening status. Asking Host to proceed with caution! 】
Luan Qing Xiao furrowed her brows: So this was the unfavorable consequence of the male lead being completely blackened. I was just wondering that the male lead’s amateurish kidnapping was way too simple.
【The E-rank world is the simplest of all the worlds, it can be considered to be a vacation world. When the host encounters any life endangering situation, the world will automatically turn on the "Reducing the Villain’s IQ Halo"~】
Luan Qing Xiao nodded: 520, introduce the background of this world's male and female lead.
【Name: Nie Zhen'er
Gender: Female
Role: The female lead
Family background: Her father was the first human who was infected and produced
antibodies. Currently, he is used by the medical academy to research the zombie virus
vaccines. Her mother was an ordinary person and has already died.
Female Lead Deeds: After losing her parents’ protections, she fell into a swarm of zombies
as a non-ability user. Once infected with the zombie virus, she evolved into the zombie
queen while still maintaining her human appearance.
Female Lead Skills: Can’t feel pain paired with a strong physical fitness that is immune to
water and fire. She can freely order zombies within ten meters and can absorb the power of
ability users through close contact to evolve herself. Currently, it is disguised as an
enhanced strength ability.
---
Name: Liang Yan
Sex: Male
Role: The male lead, captain of X Squadron
Family background: His father was a metal type ability user, who personally established the
X Base. Later, he fell into a crowd of zombies due to unknown reasons and died. Then X

a crazed pilfering of their supplies.
Male Lead Deeds: A perseverance personality that founded the X Squadron with the
intention of investigating the truth about his parents’ deaths.
Male lead Skills: Dual abilities of fire and metal. Skill level, level two. 】
【Ding! Releasing the D-world mission: the female lead’s romance is above all else, please let the female lead experience a beautiful romance in this zombie-ridden apocalypse~ The female lead’s current love value: 0. 】
【Because the initial setting was that the male and female males are in love, Host will proceed as the vicious female supporting character to promote the storyline through eight compulsory plot points set up to help the host complete the mission. If the host wants to have a romantic relationship with the female lead, you must complete these compulsory plot points first~】
Luan Qing Xiao: ...I understand.
X Squadron has a total of six crew: the captain Liang Yan, the lieutenant Luan Qing Xiao and the members Nie Zhen'er, Luo Zi Lin, Zhang Yao Xue, and Jiang Yue Bai.
Luo Zi Lin was a rare space type ability user, responsible for storing their materials. Zhang Yao Xue was an earth-type ability user, responsible for their defense. Jiang Yue Bai was a healing type ability user, responsible for their treatment. All three of their abilities were still level one.
When Luan Qing Xiao woke up, she was currently absorbing the crystal nucleus to evolve her ability inside a room. Under the guidance of 520, she finished absorbing the crystal nucleus and quickly mastered this body's ability.
Luan Qing Xiao looked at her fingertips. A small stream of water overflowed from her fingertips and gradually converged into a ball of water. The water ball was getting bigger and bigger while Luan Qing Xiao watched interestingly when the door was suddenly pushed open. Luan Qing Xiao raised his head and saw a petite figure standing by the door. Her brain turned blank as the football-sized water ball broke on her fingertips, drenching Luan Qing Xiao all over.
"Lieutenant, are you okay?" Nie Zhen'er walked in apologetically, "It's all my fault for suddenly pushing the door open. I'll go call the captain to help you dry your clothes." After she said that, she started walking out.
Luan Qing Xiao stood up and pulled on her sleeves. She anxiously said, "No need, I can do it myself."
Under Nie Zhen'er's gaze, Luan Qing Xiao gathered all the water on her body into a ball again, and gently threw it into the rectangular flower pot on the side. The row of emerald green lettuce inside sponged up the water, which made it appear tender and extremely appetizing.
"Lieutenant, you’re so amazing." Nie Zhen'er watched Luan Qing Xiao's movements, surprised.
Because previously when Luan Qing Xiao accidentally drenched her clothes while practicing her powers, she would go find Liang Yan to dry them with his fire ability. However, she didn't expect that she could already control the water on her body now.
Nie Zhen'er looked at Luan Qing Xiao enviously.
Luan Qing Xiao’s vanity was greatly satisfied by the envious eyes from the person she liked. So she said gently, "What business does Zhen'er have to come to see me for?"
Hearing the way Luan Qing Xiao addressed her, Nie Zhen'er was stunned. Luan Qing Xiao had always called her by her full name, why would she act so intimate to her...
"Zhen’er?" Luan Qing Xiao called out, puzzled.
Nie Zhen'er's starry eyes flashed. When she recovered, she asked softly, "Lieutenant, I met a group of zombies last night. Now my whole body smells like rotting meat, can I go take a bath?"
Luan Qing Xiao thought it was something huge for her to be this nervous. Instead, it was just this. She glanced at the dark red stains on her thin shoulders and the rotten flesh bits on her clothes, "Go ahead, I'll gather water for you."
Their team had a fixed shower time every day, because bathing not only required Luan Qing Xiao to get water, but also Liang Yan was needed to heat the water. It’s just Nie Zhen'er was incredibly uncomfortable today that she came to see Luan Qing Xiao, the lieutenant who usually treated her indifferently. Unexpectedly, Luan Qing Xiao was both pleasant to her and easy to talk to.
Suddenly Nie Zhen'er's affection for Luan Qing Xiao rose significantly. She felt that she must have misunderstood Luan Qing Xiao previously, and she didn't hate herself as much as she showed.
"Thank you, Lieutenant!" Nie Zhen'er couldn't help but smile sweetly at Luan Qing Xiao.
Luan Qing Xiao resisted the throbbing in her heart, but her ears still turned red, "No need to be so polite with me."
Nie Zhen'er opened the bathroom door and walked in. Luan Qing Xiao sat outside and controlled the water flowing from the shower head through the pipes.
With the sound of water coming from the bathroom, Luan Qing Xiao couldn't help but wander off in her mind.
【Ding! The first compulsory plot is about to come. Ten minutes later, the female lead will begin to wash her hair. Requesting the Host to cut off the water source, so that the female lead can't wash away the foam on her head. 】
Luan Qing Xiao: ...The compulsory plots continue to be this naive and vicious.
【Who would have known Host, you will like the female lead? All these compulsory plots were put in place to bring the male and female leads together~】
It can’t be helped. After finally seeing her regained sweetie, Luan Qing Xiao didn't want to be kicked out of this world just because she didn't complete the compulsory plots.
Ten minutes later, 【Ding! Requesting the Host to immediately cut off the water source. 】
Luan Qing Xiao retracted her power, and the sound of water from the bathroom instantly stopped.
Nie Zhen'er didn't know what had happened. Therefore she asked cautiously, "Lieutenant, are you okay? The bathroom abruptly ran out of water."
Luan Qing Xiao took a crystal nucleus she already absorbed and re-transmitted the powers within her body until her body felt empty. Then she stopped and hid the core.
She weakly lied, "My powers ran out. Currently, I don't have any more nuclei on hand..."
