Chapter Summaries

Mo Li claimed the Prite People brought the Zombie Virus to accelerate humanity’s evolution, but she withheld the reason for their mission and said surviving humans had not yet met its minimum target. As Mo Li’s injuries worsened, the First Generation Zombie King and Chewy Candy tried to help her, but his Regeneration Power had no effect.

• Mo Li told Li Chen that the Zombie Virus and the resulting catastrophe had forced humanity to evolve much faster than it otherwise would have.
• Li Chen questioned why the Prite People were still invading Earth and why Mo Li wanted humanity to evolve, and she said her subordinates were avenging the destruction of their Star Destroyer Command Ship and that she could not reveal the mission’s purpose.
• Li Chen accused Mo Yue of arming other shelters to attack the Star-Level Shelter, and Mo Li said the attacks would stop only after humanity reached the required evolutionary level.
• Mo Li revealed that surviving humans had to reach at least Gene Evolution level ten, then began coughing as her condition worsened.
• Chewy Candy begged Li Chen to save Mo Li, while the First Generation Zombie King tried to heal her with Mental Power and Regeneration Power, but Mo Li said her injuries were not ordinary.

Li Chen healed Mo Li with a Beginner Healing Potion, and she reunited with Chewy Candy and the First Generation Zombie King. Mo Li thanked him, but Li Chen demanded evidence for her claim that Prite Civilization had come to help Earth, leaving her to explain the ancient conflict between their civilizations.

• The First Generation Zombie King knelt before Li Chen and begged him to save Mo Li.
• Li Chen poured a Beginner Healing Potion onto the Crystal Coffin, which absorbed it and restored Mo Li to health.
• Mo Li emerged from the coffin and asked Li Chen how he had obtained a Healing Potion, but he refused to tell her.
• Chewy Candy and the First Generation Zombie King greeted their recovered mother, and Mo Li thanked Li Chen for saving her.
• Li Chen asked Mo Li to prove that Earth's ancestors had clashed with Prite Civilization, while she insisted Prite had come to help Earth.

Mo Li explained how Noah Civilization had helped an ancient Homo Erectus group leave Earth, conquer Prite Star, and rule it for thirty thousand years before being overthrown. As missiles threatened the Star-Level Shelter, she revealed that the Prite People intended to force humanity to reach Gene Evolution Tier 10 and relocate to Prite Planet, and Li Chen challenged their right to decide humanity’s future.

• Li Chen pressed Mo Li to explain the ancient history of humanity and the Prite People.
• Mo Li said Noah Civilization had saved an Earth Homo Erectus group during the Fourth Ice Age, helped it develop advanced technology and the Small Universe, and enabled it to leave Earth.
• Mo Li explained that the group invaded Prite Star, enslaved its inhabitants, and ruled an empire for roughly thirty thousand years before the natives and human descendants overthrew it.
• Missile alarms sounded throughout the Star-Level Shelter, and Mo Li said the Prite People would continue forcing Earth Humans to awaken their potential until they reached Gene Evolution Tier 10.
• Mo Li said the surviving humans would then be taken to Prite Planet to establish a new civilization, and Li Chen questioned why the Prite People had to make decisions for humanity.

Li Chen asked Noah whether Mo Li’s claims about the Prite People’s mission were trustworthy, and Noah confirmed that Earth’s ancient ancestors had once spread through the universe as the powerful Born Warrior Race. Noah doubted the Prite People’s motives, while Mo Li insisted that Earth Humanity’s ancestors had ordered the Prite People to help modern humans evolve and left Li Chen to decide what to believe.

• Li Chen asked Noah if Mo Li’s account could be trusted, and Noah confirmed that ancient Earth humans had explored space far earlier than Mo Li claimed.
• Noah told Li Chen that Earth’s ancestors had become the Born Warrior Race, spread across more than thirteen galaxy clusters, and later vanished for unknown reasons.
• Noah explained that modern humans carried the ancestors’ genes and could unlock their potential through intense training, then warned that the Prite People’s motives were not simple.
• Li Chen connected Noah’s account of the Born Warrior Race to Mu Xiao’s teachings about developing the Small Universe and wondered why the story felt familiar.
• Mo Li told Li Chen that Earth Humanity’s own ancestors had ordered the Prite People to help modern humans evolve, but refused to reveal classified details.

Li Chen rejected Mo Li’s plan to force Earth Humans to evolve through slaughter and demanded that the Prite Star fleet leave. Mo Li offered a three-month ceasefire to gather fifty thousand Tier 10 evolvers, but Li Chen refused, leaving their standoff unresolved.

• Mo Li explained that ancient Earth Humans still ruled Prite Planet, that she carried their blood, and that Tier 10 evolution could extend lifespans to tens of thousands of years.
• Li Chen refused the Prite mission, saying humanity should control its own fate, and told Mo Li to leave unless she wanted war.
• Chewy Candy struggled between Li Chen and her mother, Mo Li, while the First Generation Zombie King remained calm.
• Mo Li offered to seek a ceasefire for three months while Earth gathered fifty thousand Tier 10 evolvers, warning that the fleet would otherwise release another Zombie Virus.
• Li Chen rejected Mo Li’s proposal and again insisted that Earth Humans would not live according to her design.

Li Chen rejected Mo Li’s demand to cooperate, and she revealed that another Star Destroyer fleet would arrive to force Earth Humans into her plan. When Mo Li tried to leave after her children sided with Li Chen, the Shadow Organization squad arrived and identified her as an alien.

• Mo Li threatened Li Chen with a second Star Destroyer fleet if he refused her proposal, and Li Chen stood firm.
• The First Generation Zombie King and Chewy Candy refused to follow Mo Li and defended Li Chen’s position.
• Li Chen told Mo Li she would have to stay, but she unleashed her overwhelming power and mocked his ability to stop her.
• Mo Li vanished, warning Li Chen that other shelters would come after him and that she would carry out her plan to help Earth Humans evolve.
• The Shadow Organization squad appeared in response to Li Chen’s call for help, and one member detected Mo Li’s alien trace.

Li Chen explained that Mo Li was the Prite captain who could summon reinforcements, and Leng Yan’s team captured her after joining the counterattack. Mo Li learned that the Noah Civilization was helping Li Chen, while he prepared potions to bring her under his control.

• Li Chen told Leng Yan that Mo Li commanded the invading aliens, so Leng Yan activated Tracking Mode and led her team to pursue her.
• Leng Yan said the outer shelter commanders had joined the operation, and Li Chen explained that her team guarded Earth against a full-scale invasion.
• Li Chen gave Chewy Candy a Beginner Loyalty Potion, and her distress disappeared as her loyalty to him took hold.
• Leng Yan’s team captured Mo Li in under ten minutes, and Li Chen failed to read her memories while she recognized the Noah Civilization as his mysterious helper.
• Li Chen insisted Earth did not need the Prite People’s help, and Mo Li said she was only following the Elders’ orders.
• Li Chen took out a Beginner Loyalty Potion and a Beginner Favorability Potion, and Mo Li recognized the Loyalty Potion in shock.

Li Chen used potions to turn Prite commander Mo Li into his loyal servant, then appointed her to lead the zombie armies against the invasion and resisting Dragon Kingdom shelters. He checked the requirements for his next evolution and recalled his Zombie Kings to obtain the missing energy cores.

• Li Chen poured Loyalty and Favorability Potions over Mo Li, who became obedient and revealed that she was a major general in the Prite Civilization's Thirty-First Interstellar Expedition Army.
• Li Chen appointed Mo Li Supreme Zombie King and commander of the first, second, and third generation zombie armies, with the other Zombie Kings serving as deputy commanders.
• Li Chen ordered the zombie forces to deal with internal problems and conquer Dragon Kingdom shelters resisting the Star-Level Shelter.
• Li Chen checked his Attribute Panel and saw that his next evolution required 500 billion Evolution Energy and 5,000 energy cores from each of three zombie generations.
• Li Chen recalled Jiang Chen and Caesar and sent Chewy Candy to fetch Big One and Macho Number One so he could obtain the cores he lacked.

Li Chen took Jiang Chen and Caesar outside the shelter and spent over 420 billion Evolution Energy maxing out Jiang Chen’s attributes, bringing him to the peak of the eighth tier. He then discovered that Advanced Evolution Fluid had entered production and asked Noah to check its Evolution Energy content.

• Jiang Chen and Caesar returned when Li Chen called them, and he inspected their attributes before saying he would strengthen them.
• Jiang Chen used his spatial movement ability to take Li Chen and Caesar to a remote Primeval Forest, where they heard the shelter’s defenses intercepting enemy missiles.
• Li Chen spent 426.75 billion Evolution Energy to max out Jiang Chen’s attributes, unleashing the First Generation Zombie King’s peak eighth-tier power.
• Li Chen checked the shelter’s resources and discovered that Doctor Yang had begun mass-producing Advanced Evolution Fluid, with 900 bottles in stock.
• Li Chen ordered Noah to check how much Evolution Energy the Advanced Evolution Fluid contained.

Li Chen converted two million bottles of Intermediate Evolution Fluid into 10 trillion Evolution Energy and prepared to evolve Jiang Chen to Tier 9. He learned that missing high-tier Energy Crystal Cores made the breakthrough cost 4.5 trillion Evolution Energy, leaving him less room to spend than he had expected.

• Noah told Li Chen that one bottle of Advanced Evolution Fluid contained 200 million Evolution Energy, and Li Chen realized his 900-bottle reserve could not meet his own upgrade needs.
• Li Chen converted two million bottles of Intermediate Evolution Fluid into 10 trillion Evolution Energy.
• After confirming that the First Generation Zombie King had adapted to his new power, Li Chen said he would help him reach Tier 9, exciting Jiang Chen and the Second Generation Zombie King.
• Noah's prompt showed that evolving Jiang Chen would cost 4.5 trillion Evolution Energy, and Li Chen questioned the amount.
• Noah explained that Jiang Chen lacked the required Energy Crystal Cores, so a forced breakthrough cost three times the normal amount; Li Chen accepted the price and reconsidered his hopes of having energy to spare.

Li Chen and Caesar used dual Mental Barriers while Noah poured 450 billion Evolution Energy into Jiang Chen to evolve him from Level 8 to Level 9, but Jiang Chen was overcome by pain and fainted as his energy ran wild. Meanwhile, Liao Gao Tian struggled to keep people from fleeing Gao Tian Shelter and worried that its stalled campaign against the Star-Level Shelter would cost him his place in the Eternal Life Project.

• Li Chen ordered Noah to evolve Jiang Chen, while Li Chen and Caesar raised Mental Barriers to contain the transformation.
• Noah poured 450 billion Evolution Energy into Jiang Chen, whose painful evolution caused him to faint and unleash uncontrolled energy within the barriers.
• Gao Tian Shelter completed its campaign to unite the shelters of Province X under Liao Gao Tian's command.
• A subordinate told Liao Gao Tian that troops could not stop survivors from fleeing toward the Star-Level Shelter, and Liao Gao Tian dismissed the escapees.
• Liao Gao Tian blamed the Star-Level Shelter's resistance for the stalled battle and feared that poor performance would disqualify him from the Eternal Life Project and make Hua Ju Laboratory his enemy.

Liao Gao Tian persuaded his commanders to let the fleeing survivors go and focus on the Eternal Life Project and the Star-Level Shelter. He ordered Gao Tian Shelter to hold back while others attacked, planning to strike once they were weakened.

• A deputy commander warned Liao Gao Tian that the mass flight of survivors threatened Gao Tian Shelter’s labor force and future.
• Liao Gao Tian insisted that the Eternal Life Project and the siege of the Star-Level Shelter mattered more than stopping the refugees.
• He argued that Intelligent Robots could replace the fleeing survivors and that their departure would conserve food and resources.
• The commanders praised Liao Gao Tian, and he ordered his troops to let others attack the Star-Level Shelter before moving in to finish the fight.
• Liao Gao Tian privately thought the Eternal Life Project offered only one slot per invited shelter and regarded the commanders as pawns.

Liao Gao Tian stayed out of the fighting, unaware that a 3.9-million-strong army had reached Gao Tian Shelter’s border. Meanwhile, the First Generation Zombie King reached Tier 9, and Li Chen prepared to evolve Caesar as two enormous figures arrived.

• Liao Gao Tian chose to preserve Gao Tian Shelter’s strength while neighboring shelters secretly assembled an army at its border.
• The First Generation Zombie King completed his advance to Tier 9 and shattered Li Chen and the Second Generation Zombie King’s Mental Barrier with an unconscious movement.
• Li Chen inspected Jiang Chen’s attributes and confirmed his strength had surged after reaching Tier 9.
• Li Chen called Caesar over to begin the Second Generation Zombie King’s evolution.
• Two huge figures appeared in the distance, and the First Generation Zombie King noted that they had caught up.

Big One and Macho Number One returned to the Star-Level Shelter after fighting at the front and reported that enemy weapons had wounded them. Li Chen realized the Third Generation Zombie Kings had begun fitting in with human troops, then turned to help a Second Generation Zombie King evolve to Level 9.

• Big One and Macho Number One arrived and told Li Chen that enemies equipped with powerful cannons, bombers, and fighter jets had injured them.
• The two Zombie Kings explained that they had picked up their rough speech and catchphrases from Old Zhang of the Second Legion and Old Wang of the Third Legion.
• Li Chen reflected that the zombie forces were integrating with human survivors as the Star-Level Shelter’s military grew to twenty Front Armies and his artificial human forces reached eight hundred thousand.
• Li Chen scolded Big One and Macho Number One for their language and sent them to stand aside.
• Li Chen placed a hand on the Second Generation Zombie King’s head as it prepared to evolve to Level 9.

Li Chen used his Evolution Energy to raise Caesar to Tier 9 and Big One and Macho Number One to Tier 7. The chapter ended with Li Chen examining the two Third Generation Zombie Kings' panels and finding that their attributes and talents were identical.

• Li Chen spent 412.5 billion Evolution Energy to max out Caesar's attributes, then used another 4.5 trillion to evolve him from Tier 8 to Tier 9.
• After Caesar completed his evolution, Li Chen turned to Big One and Macho Number One, who had independently reached early Tier 6.
• Li Chen evolved Big One and Macho Number One from Tier 6 to Tier 7 in about half an hour.
• Big One and Macho Number One celebrated their new strength, and Macho Number One demonstrated it with a punch that broke the sound barrier.
• Li Chen checked Big One's Attribute Panel, then found that Macho Number One had the same attributes and talents.

Li Chen compared the talents of the Zombie Kings, then opened ordinary and upgraded Super Deluxe Gift Packs to gather Evolution Energy and high-tier resources. After confirming the requirements for his next breakthrough, he began evolving.

• Li Chen noted that Zombie Kings shared Space Movement and Rapid Healing, while each generation had a distinct talent, and the Third Generation Zombie Kings possessed Iron Bone.
• Li Chen opened an ordinary Super Deluxe Gift Pack and received Evolution Energy, Energy Crystal Cores, and a production-line blueprint.
• Li Chen opened an upgraded Super Deluxe Gift Pack and received 3 trillion Evolution Energy, ahead-of-level Energy Crystal Cores, and a critical-hit reward of 10 trillion Evolution Energy and Advanced Evolution Fluid.
• Li Chen opened another ordinary pack and confirmed that the upgraded pack’s rewards were inherently ahead of the zombies’ current evolution levels.
• Li Chen verified that his next evolution required 500 billion Evolution Energy and specified Energy Crystal Cores, then began evolving.

As Li Chen broke through to Gene Evolution Tier 9, Mo Li reorganized the zombie armies and Chewy Candy demonstrated how she could command them through mental signals. Mo Li refused human weapons and sent the zombie forces to attack hostile shelters across several provinces.

• Mo Li selected elite zombie commanders and organized the First, Second, and Third Generation Zombies into disciplined combat units.
• Xu Ruoxi brought communication devices to the front, but Mo Li explained that zombies communicated through their own system.
• Chewy Candy used her hidden talent to direct the First Legion to advance three hundred meters and the Second Legion to advance five hundred meters toward Twin Flower Shelter in H Province.
• Mo Li declined the Sixth-Generation Electromagnetic Energy Cannons, saying the zombie forces did not need human equipment.
• Mo Li ordered the zombies to depart and clear hostile shelters in H Province, Province G, Province G, S Province, and C Province, while Xu Ruoxi distributed the equipment to the Star-Level Shelter's Guard Team.

Mo Yue and Hua Ju Laboratory’s Ma Gudian used footage of the Sunrise Empire’s humiliating expulsion to warn International Shelter Decision Makers that only powerful elites would be admitted to the Eternal Life Project. Trujillo reported that the Star-Level Shelter was surrounded and Dragon Country was under attack, but Mo Yue confronted him over the destruction of two White-Headed Sam Empire battle groups.

• The Star-Level Shelter mobilized Guard Team fighters and multiple generations of Zombies for a counterattack against Opposing Shelters across Dragon Country.
• Mo Yue and the International Shelter Decision Makers watched footage of White-Headed Sam Empire soldiers expelling Sunrise Empire leaders and demanding Izumo Princess; the Sunrise Empire Supreme Elder ordered her off the ship in exchange for a chance to meet the enemy’s Supreme Commander.
• Ma Gudian warned the assembled Decision Makers that the Eternal Life Project was reserved for powerful elites and that the weak would be treated like the Sunrise Empire.
• Trujillo reported to Mo Yue that the Star-Level Shelter was surrounded and White-Headed Sam Empire forces were attacking Dragon Country from every direction.
• Mo Yue asked Trujillo about reports that two White-Headed Sam Empire battle groups had been crushed, leaving him sweating under her icy gaze.

Mo Yue demanded concrete battle results from the International Shelter Decision Makers while secretly scanning the Dragon Kingdom for her sister Mo Li. The Jinghe Shelter Decision Maker claimed his forces had defeated a Dragon Kingdom shelter and killed over five hundred thousand zombies, earning Mo Yue’s attention.

• Trujillo defended his forces’ losses and proposed using their calculations of the Star-Level Shelter’s defensive blind spots to attack it.
• Ma Gudian demanded actual battlefield results, but the gathered Decision Makers initially remained silent.
• Mo Yue sensed a brief Mental Power fluctuation resembling her sister Mo Li’s near the Star-Level Shelter and wondered if she had imagined it.

• The Jinghe Shelter Decision Maker claimed his troops had advanced into Province G, defeated a Dragon Kingdom shelter, and killed over five hundred thousand zombies.
• Mo Yue asked the Jinghe Shelter Decision Maker whether his forces had seized many Energy Crystal Cores.

Mo Yue praised the shelters for their battlefield results and urged them to use captured Evolution Resources to strengthen their forces against Li Chen and the Dragon Kingdom. Hua Ju Laboratory rewarded shelters that proved their achievements, and Mo Yue promised greater rewards, including immortality, for future merit.

• The Jinghe Shelter's Decision Maker reported capturing Energy Crystal Cores and other resources, then described his shelter's troops and their evolution levels.
• Mo Yue told Jinghe Shelter to use its captured resources to strengthen its troops and promising subordinates, warning that its current strength could not defeat Li Chen or the Dragon Kingdom.
• Ma Gudian gave reward vouchers to the Jinghe Shelter's Decision Maker and the Corn Cob Shelter's Decision Maker, including weapons, fighters, and Evolution Fluid.
• Other shelter Decision Makers rushed to report their battle achievements, and Hua Ju Laboratory issued rewards to shelters that provided evidence.
