Doomsday Descends: My Villainous Destiny

Chapter 38: Scumbag Xu Chao



Chapter 38: Scumbag Xu Chao

In the old era, conducting human experiments was very difficult, but now, it was simple.

Every day, there were people who couldn't survive, willing to sell their bodies for a small price.

In the Evolution Research Institute, there were hundreds of 'volunteers' undergoing human experiments.

Researchers gathered conclusions and feedback from these human experiments to further optimize Qin Jun's cultivation methods.

Qin Jun's cultivation was built on the pain, rejection reactions, and even deaths of these people.

But so what? Qin Jun had no psychological burden at all.

Zhao Bo continued, “We are also preparing to start the second phase, conducting brainwashing experiments. If successful, we can capture some talented youngsters, concentrate them in an experiment to start training and brainwashing.”

“Those who qualify will be granted talent seeds, creating evolutionaries who are loyal only to our Qin family!”

Although many evolutionaries chose to submit to the Qin family, becoming loyal subjects and integrating into East Capital's vast pyramid, it was not enough.

The Qin family needed evolutionaries who would obey unconditionally, willing to sacrifice their lives without hesitation.

The Qin family not only sought to rule ordinary people but also aimed to dominate evolutionaries…

………

Donghua City, Golden Bay Residential Area.

Donghua City, adjacent to East Capital, had absorbed much of East Capital’s industry, making it economically prosperous.

However, when the apocalypse struck and zombies broke out, the governor’s office of Donghua City became infested. 

The governor and a group of officials were taken, and the city’s command system collapsed instantly, turning the entire city into a zombie playground.

Survivors could only hide at home, relying on their dwindling supplies, waiting for a rescue that would never come.

In Golden Bay Residential Area, Building 22, Room 1502, a plain-looking, thin young man slowly woke up from his bed. Beside him lay a woman.

The woman, fairly attractive and around twenty years old, had her brows slightly furrowed, as if even in sleep, she felt insecure.

The young man smiled contentedly, glancing out the window at the wandering zombies, completely unbothered.

He got out of bed, stretching lazily and last night’s ‘exercise’ was too intense…

The woman, now awake, got dressed and said, “I’ll make breakfast.”

The young man nodded, watching her back with a smile. His name was Xu Chao. Orphaned young, he had no money, no background, and wasn’t particularly good-looking. 

He stopped studying after high school and became an ordinary security guard in a large company, earning 2,600 yuan a month.

Originally, someone like him was at the bottom of society, likely never to have a girlfriend. His greatest hobby was playing video games in his rented room.

Day after day, year after year, he never thought about the future.

Just getting by day by day.

Then suddenly, a month ago, the whole world changed. Zombies suddenly broke out, biting everywhere. Xu Chao felt what true equality was.

Those well-dressed white-collar workers were devoured by zombies. Those high-and-mighty managers and bosses were scared out of their wits.

But Xu Chao, the lowly security guard whom no one respected, became different. At the moment the apocalypse struck, he awakened his talent.

E-level talent—Shadow Controller!

A black shadow appeared before him, and he could control it! Under his shadow, those ferocious zombies were cut down like weeds!

As for the woman, her name was Zhou Lan.

When the apocalypse broke out, Zhou Lan was chased by a group of zombies. In a panic, she ran into Xu Chao’s community and found herself in a desperate situation.

Initially, Xu Chao didn’t want to get involved, but seeing how beautiful Zhou Lan was, he used his shadow to deal with the zombies and saved her.

After some questioning, Xu Chao discovered Zhou Lan had quite a background. She was the daughter of a famous local entrepreneur, a rich heiress.

She studied abroad at an Ivy League university, a true child of heaven. 

Xu Chao and Zhou Lan were worlds apart.

Zhou Lan’s daily afternoon tea cost more than Xu Chao’s monthly rent, but now, Xu Chao had saved Zhou Lan, and in the face of zombies, he had the absolute upper hand.

So, under his coercion and temptation, Zhou Lan became his woman. Xu Chao looked out at the zombies, smiling. He truly felt this was a great era.

In the past, someone like Zhou Lan was beyond his wildest dreams, but now he could do whatever he wanted with her.

Seeing this once-proud woman now at his mercy filled Xu Chao with immense satisfaction. He loved this era.

Since the apocalypse, Xu Chao and Zhou Lan had stayed inside, not venturing out. Partly because their supplies were sufficient, but also because Xu Chao knew that although he had awakened a talent, his shadow was still too weak.

If he left and encountered stronger evolutionaries who took an interest in Zhou Lan, what then?

Xu Chao had a typical loser mindset. Having been single for over twenty years, he finally got a woman and cherished her immensely.

He even wished they could stay in this apartment forever. Terrified that another man might take Zhou Lan from him…

His shadow needed to devour energy crystals to grow stronger, and he had nearly cleared the zombies in his community. However, he didn’t find many energy crystals.

Moreover, he didn’t understand cultivation. He didn’t know how to fully absorb the energy in the crystals, wasting many of them.

After a month, he was still a Level 1 evolutionary with no improvement in strength.

But Xu Chao wasn’t worried. Although his talent was E-level, it could evolve. As his shadow grows stronger, the talent level could also increase.

It was a very potent talent. Yet Xu Chao’s mind was still full of women.

He started pondering if there were other survivors in Donghua City. Were there other beautiful women out there?
