Background / History

Before the apocalypse, Huang Guan was a police officer in his forties known for his integrity and intense hatred of crime. He refused a former boss's attempt to cultivate him through a meal, openly warned both the boss and a superior against corruption, and declared that he would personally send wrongdoers to prison. 86

After becoming a zombie, Officer Huang retained his sense of duty rather than becoming a mindless predator. He continued operating from Huang City Police Station, targeting criminals while leaving ordinary civilians unharmed. Lin Fan first encounters him when he kills several criminals who had been delivered to the station. 86 87

His strength grows through combat, crystals, and evolution, but his purpose remains unchanged: maintaining public order and protecting survivors. After Huang City becomes comparatively secure, he leaves to patrol dangerous areas beyond the city, rescuing civilians and directing them to Sunshine Shelter. 182 183 186

Appearance

Officer Huang retains the face and gray, lifeless eyes of a zombie, though his features still suggest the resolute officer he was in life. He ordinarily wears his damaged police uniform beneath custom battle armor. 87 101 223

• His original uniform includes his police badge and shoulder epaulets. 101
• His battle armor bears the word “Police” on its back in two languages. 183
• He wears a helmet and visor while patrolling, concealing his zombie features from civilians. 183 213
• He is often bloodstained from fighting, though Lin Fan regularly cleans his armor so its police markings remain visible. 213
• Following his evolution, he can smile and show more human facial expressions. 244 313

Personality

Officer Huang is defined by an uncompromising commitment to public order. As a human officer, he rejected corrupt connections; as a zombie, he continues to protect civilians and administer harsh punishment to people he judges as irredeemably evil. 86 183 264

He is terse, serious, and frequently aloof, speaking only when necessary. His increasing intelligence allows him to recognize Lin Fan's habit of pretending to need protection or presenting helpless enemies for him to kill, which contributes to Officer Huang's tendency to leave quickly after their encounters. 295

As his rationality develops, he becomes more measured. While he still kills the exceptionally vicious, he begins giving less extreme offenders an opportunity to reform. 355

Abilities & Skills

Criminal Judgment

Officer Huang distinguishes civilians from criminals through unusually refined senses and personal judgment.

• Initially evaluates people by scent, using it to identify whether someone is dangerous. 147 179
• Later detects heartbeats and recognizes the scent of frightened but otherwise ordinary citizens. 213
• Protects people he considers innocent and targets those he judges to have committed grave crimes. 264 285
• Eventually grants some offenders a chance at reform rather than automatically executing them. 355

Enhanced Zombie Physiology

His combat ability rises dramatically through repeated evolution and crystal consumption.

• Demonstrates exceptional speed while fighting a Strength-type Zombie. 101
• Can crush zombie heads with armored strikes and overwhelm ordinary zombies through sheer physical pressure. 213
• Tears apart massive metal gates and shatters reinforced metal walls with his fists. 221
• Defeats the mutant Jiang Shan with a single head-shattering punch. 264
• Hunts threats far larger than himself, including a zombie over thirty meters tall. 294

Undying One Physiology

As an Undying One, Officer Huang possesses two internal crystals, located in his heart and head. 244 313

• Destroying his head alone cannot kill him. 313
• His genes are described as increasingly optimized through evolution and consumption of powerful enemies. 244 295
• His body remains a stated weakness despite his exceptional evolutionary potential, making armor important to his survival. 183

Communication and Coordination

Officer Huang gradually regains the ability to understand and use human language.

• Begins with growls and limited vocalizations, but eventually speaks clearly enough to communicate basic decisions. 167 223
• Uses a satellite phone to arrange for Lin Fan and Sunshine Shelter to collect survivors he rescues. 183 186
• Reassures frightened survivors directly, telling them, “Don’t be afraid.” 264
• Chooses to continue patrolling outside Huang City because other areas still need him. 331

Equipment / Weapons / Items

• Police uniform, badge, and shoulder epaulets — His remaining symbols of his original profession. 101 223
• Fourth-stage battle suit — Crystal-enhanced armor prepared before he leaves Huang City; protects him from ordinary zombie bites and attacks. 182 183
• Armor 2.0 — A replacement suit enhanced to the sixth stage after his earlier armor is heavily damaged by a Fusion-type Zombie. 223
• Helmet and visor — Protect his head while concealing his zombie face. 183
• Satellite phone — Used to contact Sunshine Shelter when he finds survivors. 183 186
• Straight Blade — Considered for him as additional protection during his travels. 182

Relationships

• Lin Fan — Trusted ally who supplies armor, crystals, rescue support, and transport. Officer Huang acknowledges Lin Fan as “the savior of the apocalypse,” though he is wary of Lin Fan's transparent attempts to manipulate him into accepting help. 182 295 313
• Dongdong — Zombie child taken in by Officer Huang. Dongdong follows him, communicates with him, and is distressed by his departures. 125 147 183
• Sunshine Shelter survivors — The people Officer Huang protects, rescues, and directs to safety; many view him as an apocalypse-era law enforcer rather than a monster. 186 244 352
• Professor Xia — Provides custom battle suits and conducts research with Officer Huang's consent when it may help humanity survive. 244 313
• Criminals and violent survivors — Officer Huang acts as judge and executioner against those he considers beyond redemption, including Zhou Huai and Jiang Shan. 264 285
