Background

Ye Zhongming is the reborn protagonist of the Doomsday Roulette Derivative World, returning with memories and combat experience from ten years after the apocalypse. As the world’s World’s Son, he possesses knowledge and decisiveness that distinguish him from ordinary survivors. 1 7

During the early apocalypse in Yingcheng, he encountered Wang Changle while assisting Mo Ye against Blood-tongue Lizards. Wang’s intervention helped save Mo Ye and enabled the pair to kill the lizard leader, initially reducing Ye Zhongming’s wariness. 7

Ye Zhongming later grew suspicious when Wang repeatedly appeared at critical moments, knew his name and abilities, and used an unfamiliar plant-based profession. He eventually concluded that Wang Changle was also reborn, but from a later point in the timeline. 10 11 13

Personality

Ye Zhongming is decisive, vigilant, and highly pragmatic. He judges people by their usefulness and intentions in the apocalypse, initially accepting Wang Changle’s help because Wang displayed strength without overt malice. 7 8

His previous-life memories make him exceptionally cautious of unknown variables. Wang Changle’s foreknowledge, equipment, and repeated interference quickly turned Ye Zhongming’s initial interest into hostility. 10 13

Despite his suspicion and desire for control, Ye Zhongming recognizes obligations. He surrendered the Profession Advancement Scroll after Wang Changle publicly listed the favors he had rendered, knowing that denying those debts would undermine his standing among his companions. 12
