Background / History

Transmigration and survival

Liu Feng is a modern college student and seasoned webnovel reader. He arrives on a skyscraper rooftop in Year 139 of the Apocalypse Calendar, where the Doomsday Insect Ancestor System binds to him. His first hundred Iron-toothed Insects strip a zombie to its skeleton, giving him a means to fight without approaching it himself 1.

His early success does not solve his immediate survival problems. Shops have already been looted, his insects suffer losses, and their initial operating range is limited to one kilometer. He leaves the city center on a battered bicycle, then secures a building containing food, water, and weapons 1 2.

Taking leadership and Long Tai’s base

Han Bing initially invites Liu Feng to join his group, then helps lure zombies toward his shelter in an attempt to obtain his supplies. Liu Feng destroys the horde and advances instead. After witnessing his insects, Han Bing mistakes him for the Insect King’s son and spends five days pleading for him to lead the group 2 3 4.

With only two days of provisions remaining, Liu Feng accepts. Han Bing declares him leader of their poorly defended factory settlement. When Long Tai arrives to extort supplies and demand its two women, Liu Feng secretly infests the gang’s gunmen with Parasitic Insects, turns their weapons against Long Tai, and drives him away 4 5.

Liu Feng then attacks Long Tai’s fortified residential complex. His silver insect shield absorbs a rocket explosion, and he wounds Long Tai with rifle fire. During the final assault, he orders his men to accept surrender but kill continued resistance. The captured residents include Uncle Ge, the compound’s only doctor 6 7.

Consolidating the Residential Camp

The new camp suffers an unexplained fire followed by a zombie siege. Liu Feng coordinates firearms and insects, improvises an attack using a swarm-carried gasoline barrel, and ultimately kills a strength-type mutant through Parasitic Insect infestation. Afterward, he organizes repairs, cleanup, and rest, while refusing to let accusations about the fire proceed without evidence 8 10 11.

With supplies dwindling, Liu Feng collects tribute from camps formerly subordinate to Long Tai. At Uncle Wang’s camp, he takes half the clothing and vegetables rather than Long Tai’s former 80-percent share, leaving the poultry behind. Resistance at White City Camp No. 28 becomes a battle; Liu Feng combines insect attacks with Han Bing’s river crossing to seize the bridge and enter the camp 12 13 14.

There he recruits mechanic Sun Liang and engineers Feng Wu and Feng Wen. On returning home, he discovers that Long Tai has retaken the gates. Long Tai admits responsibility for the fire and release of the Big-Headed Zombie, then challenges Liu Feng to a fistfight. Liu Feng exploits his existing leg wound; when Long Tai draws a concealed pistol, the Iron-toothed Insects consume him 15 16 17.

Mutant hunting and the Zombie Tide

Liu Feng’s group hunts a Civet Beast near an abandoned construction site. The kill provides experience and a valuable trade commodity, but Ma Hou dies from wounds suffered during the fight. Liu Feng honors his request for burial on the lake island, then trades the beast to Yin Ganlong for three modified jeeps and a crate of fragmentation grenades 21 22 23 24.

A subsequent mind-control mutant exposes another danger: its gaze makes people perceive a schoolgirl among the zombies. Liu Feng stops Han Bing from jumping into the horde and defeats the mutant by surrounding it with parasitized zombies before sending in Iron-toothed Insects 24 25.

During a later rescue operation, Liu Feng draws zombies away from Wang Defa’s group and encounters Little Knife. They become separated from his companions, shelter together while she treats her wounds, and return to find Master Hua holding the camp’s people captive. Little Knife strikes Master Hua while Liu Feng’s insects eliminate the armed men, restoring control of the camp 27 28 30 31 32 34.

The renewed Zombie Tide proves too large and organized for the camp’s defenses. Liu Feng loses more than half his 400,000 Iron-toothed Insects trying to reach its leader, then orders a retreat into the high-rises. His newly unlocked Spine Crawlers later clear the zombies surrounding Little Knife, allowing her to kill the Commander; Liu Feng detonates insects against its remains to ensure its destruction 36 38.

A58 and the Laboratory Building

With the Residential Camp no longer fit for habitation, Liu Feng chooses A58, thirty kilometers north. He treats its three-way factional struggle as an opportunity, waits outside while rival groups fight, and decides to support the weakened Liu Honggou to gain leverage over him 40 42 43.

After eliminating Long Si and the defenders on the wall, Liu Feng invents a shared hunting history with Liu Honggou to secure entry. Liu Honggou subsequently maneuvers him into a duel with Zerui. Liu Feng recognizes the manipulation, defeats Zerui through coordinated insect attacks and hidden parasitic infestation, and is acclaimed as A58’s new leader 44 45 46 47.

Zerui’s former deputy Xiao Ming leads Liu Feng’s party into an eleven-story building, claiming it contains supplies and controls for a dangerous energy system. He locks them inside. Liu Feng and Little Knife reach the top floor, kill a breeding Iron Cockroach Beast, and disable the heating trap. Outside, they discover Xiao Ming’s alliance with Liu Honggou and learn that Liu Honggou has taken their vulnerable dependents hostage 48 49 50.

Appearance

Liu Feng is a skinny young man whose ordinary physique contrasts sharply with the scale of his summoned armies 4 16.

• Eyes: Clear, dark eyes 16 23.
• Lips: Sharply defined, thin lips, frequently described curling into a mocking smile 13 17 44.
• Physical condition: Poorly conditioned after spending much of college gaming and reading novels; begins exercising after his duel with Long Tai 26.

Personality

Liu Feng is pragmatic, ambitious, and quick to turn threats into opportunities. He uses Han Bing’s attempted zombie trap to gain experience, seeks engineers and a doctor to strengthen his group, and deliberately backs the weaker faction at A58 to secure influence. His stated ambition is to build a power rivaling the Xia Kingdom’s four great cities 2 5 7 15 43.

His loyalty to his people coexists with severe treatment of enemies. He reassures Uncle Ge that he will protect him, shares responsibility for the camp’s fall with Han Bing, and honors Ma Hou’s burial wish. Against hostile forces, however, he readily uses infestation, mass killing, and deception. He also shows restraint in specific situations: reducing tribute demands, forbidding accusations without evidence, and rejecting a frightened woman’s sexual offer 10 11 12 14 17 22 34.

Confidence occasionally becomes overconfidence. He accepts Long Tai’s duel despite having no fighting experience and initially believes the camp will remain safe during his absence. He is more self-conscious around Little Knife, alternating between attraction, teasing, embarrassment, and protectiveness 15 16 32 35 46 50.

Abilities & Skills

Doomsday Insect Ancestor System

• Telepathic command: Directs summoned insects through thought; the swarm will not betray him 1.

• Insect reconnaissance: Can shift his consciousness into an insect’s perspective and deploy insects to scout 19.
• Initial limitations: Early insects cannot travel beyond one kilometer from him, and summoning requires intervals rather than producing the full army instantly 1.
• Restricted information: Locked skills cannot be freely inspected; probing Sky Spider costs him experience 48.

Iron-toothed Insects

• Consumption: Gnaw through targets with sharp teeth. At their initial level they consume flesh; upgraded swarms reduce enemies to blood with no bones remaining 1 2 17.
• Defense: Assemble into shields capable of stopping bullets and absorbing a rocket explosion 6 13.
• Transport and access: Form ladders, a flying carpet, and layered platforms that Liu Feng can stand on 16 27 49.

• Limits: Even LV10 insects fail against the Laboratory Building’s alloy door, dying on contact. The failed attack also extends their cooldown to five minutes 49.

Parasitic Insects

• Infestation: Enter a host’s body, consume its nutrients, and reproduce rapidly; completed reproduction kills the host 2 3.
• Puppet control: Allow Liu Feng to control infested zombies remotely and turn armed humans against their own leader 3 4 5.
• Containment: Controlled zombies form barriers or surround targets, including the mind-control mutant 25 27.
