Background / History

Before the Apocalypse

Mi Li was in her final year of high school. With college entrance examinations scheduled for early June, she stayed home to prepare rather than attend school. She and Mi Ling had only each other to rely on; Mi Ling attended a university across the city and stayed in a dormitory when her class schedule prevented her from returning home 36.

Before the apocalypse began, Chen Luo sought information about both sisters because he remembered their exceptional abilities from his previous life. He considered Mi Li especially valuable for her support powers and eventual Resurrection Spell 6 34.

Isolation and First Supply Run

Separated from Mi Ling when the apocalypse broke out, Mi Li spent over a week relying on Rice to gather supplies. As nearby supermarkets emptied, the cat would have needed to travel increasingly dangerous distances. Mi Li remained at home, hoping her sister would return 30 33.

She first approached Chen Luo to reclaim Rice from him. Although wary of Chen Luo and Su Dazhu, she accepted Rice’s assurance that they meant no harm and joined their supply run. After supporting the men against zombies, she deliberately chose to fight one herself, using a strength buff and Su Dazhu’s iron rod to make her first kill 30 31.

At the mall, Mi Li exhausted her mana strengthening Chen Luo and then gathered food and water. A Level Three Devourer attacked her while she was collecting supplies. Rice sensed the danger, allowing Chen Luo to reach her and kill the creature with his Void Sword 31 32.

Joining Chen Luo

After the rescue, Mi Li agreed to form a team with Chen Luo. She initially hesitated to visit his home because she wanted to wait for Mi Ling, but Rice reminded her that she had left a note. Chen Luo subsequently moved his companions to her apartment complex to keep Mi Li and Rice protected 33 34.

Mi Li invited the group to stay in her four-bedroom apartment rather than the damaged apartment across the way. Chen Luo supplied lighting, food, entertainment, and crystals, teaching her how crystal absorption increased her ability power and level 35.

Reunion and Survival Training

When Mi Ling returned, Mi Li rushed downstairs to embrace her and introduced Chen Luo as the person who had cared for her. Her comfortable condition contrasted sharply with Mi Ling’s exhausting journey home 37 38.

Mi Li supported Chen Luo as the group’s leader and cooperated with his attempt to make Mi Ling accept his authority. Although sympathetic to her sister, she believed that withholding the celebratory meal would help secure the unified leadership the group needed. She nevertheless accompanied Mi Ling on a scavenging trip and handed over her protective equipment 40 41 42 43.

After Zhang Qin and five armed men targeted the sisters, Mi Li strengthened Su Dazhu before he and Dharma King killed the attackers. Chen Luo and Mi Ling then required her to extract their crystals so that gore would not incapacitate her during a future battle. She completed the task despite vomiting and trembling 44 45.

Mi Li later refereed Chen Luo’s duel with Mi Ling. Following Mi Ling’s defeat and formal entry into the team, Chen Luo instructed both sisters to pack for departure from the apartment complex the next day 47 49.

Appearance

Mi Li is described as an exceptionally pretty young woman with a youthful figure and a superficially fragile appearance 30 31 33.

• Complexion: Fair, smooth skin and a healthy, rosy complexion after receiving Chen Luo’s care 37 38.
• Initial scavenging outfit: A red helmet, probably intended for an electric scooter, and a thick leather jacket 30.
• Casual clothing: Slippers, denim shorts, and a short-sleeved shirt when she rushes downstairs to reunite with Mi Ling 37.

Personality

Mi Li is timid around strangers and initially recoils from violence, but she is willing to confront her fears. She retrieves Rice despite being frightened of Chen Luo and Su Dazhu, voluntarily attempts her first zombie fight, and completes the distressing work of crystal extraction. Chen Luo recognizes the contrast between her fragile appearance and inner resolve 30 31 45.

Her affection for Mi Ling and Rice strongly influences her decisions. She is reluctant to leave home while her sister is missing, yet Rice’s safety and judgment persuade her to venture outside. Her trust in Chen Luo grows through his protection and provision, eventually leading her to defend his leadership even against Mi Ling’s objections 30 33 35 40 42.

Despite her innocence, Mi Li does not assume that her group must rescue or support everyone. She argues that survivors should escape through their own efforts rather than expect an escort and ongoing care, and she accepts Mi Ling’s warning against indiscriminate food donations 31 44.

Abilities & Skills

Light Ability and Support Role

Mi Li compares her awakened ability to a priest class in a game. Chen Luo identifies her as a Light-ability healer whose primary value lies in support rather than direct combat 6 30 34.

• Her buffs manifest as pale golden light entering the recipient’s body 30 45.
• Mana limits how often she can support allies; her first mall expedition leaves her completely depleted 31.
• At Level One, she reports being able to absorb nine crystals, which Chen Luo considers an excellent capacity 36.
• Early healing is not demonstrated in the supplied events; Chen Luo discusses learning a healing skill as a future possibility 43.

Strength Buff / Strength Amplification

Her strength enhancement adds a fixed amount rather than multiplying the target’s existing strength 30 31.

• Targets: Works on herself, Chen Luo, and Su Dazhu; it is not restricted to a single recipient 30 31.
• Level One effect: Adds roughly an adult man’s strength. Chen Luo estimates an increase of 10 against his illustrative baseline of 30 30.
• Duration: Each Level One boost applied to Chen Luo lasts two minutes 31.
• Combat application: Enables Mi Li to wield a heavy iron rod effectively and lets Chen Luo smash ordinary zombie heads with one swing 31.
• Level Two effect: The illustrative strength increase rises to at least 30 45.

Defense Amplification

Unlocked at Level Two, this buff increases a recipient’s defense 45.

• Mi Li casts it alongside Strength Amplification on Su Dazhu before he confronts the six attackers 45.
• Its exact magnitude and duration are not stated 45.

Resurrection Spell

Chen Luo remembers Mi Li as the only Light-ability user who mastered the Resurrection Spell in his previous life. He attributes this distinction to her talent and perceptiveness, noting that some skills cannot be mastered through level advancement alone 34.

• Its future importance is a major reason he recruits her and insists on keeping her safe 6 34.
• No present-timeline resurrection, unlock level, or casting conditions are documented in the supplied chapters 6 34.

Equipment / Weapons / Items

• Rolling pin — Her original weapon when she agrees to accompany Chen Luo 30.
• Iron rod — Borrowed from Su Dazhu for her first zombie kill 31.
• Helmet and thick leather jacket — Protective scavenging gear; the jacket prevents the first zombie’s claws from tearing flesh from her arms. She later lends her gear to Mi Ling 30 31 42 43.
• Two stun batons — Given by Chen Luo for self-defense during the mall expedition 31.
• Phone and power bank — Supplied by Chen Luo after her own phone loses power 35.
• Dagger — Temporarily provided by Chen Luo for extracting the attackers’ crystals 45.

Relationships

• Mi Ling — Older sister and closest family member. Their reunion is joyful, but Mi Li’s support for Chen Luo creates friction over leadership 36 37 40 42.
• Chen Luo — Team leader, protector, and ability mentor. Mi Li calls him “Big Brother Chen Luo,” admires him after her rescue, and expresses gratitude through an impulsive hug; no formal romance is established 32 35 40 41.
• Rice — Beloved cat and early survival lifeline. Rice gathers supplies during her isolation and uses its telepathic judgment to persuade her to trust Chen Luo 30 32.
• Su Dazhu — Combat teammate. He lends her the weapon used for her first kill and later receives both her strength and defense buffs 31 45.
• Ma Yu — Household teammate whom Mi Li respectfully calls “Sister Yu.” Ma Yu welcomes her and prepares the meals she enjoys after joining the group 33 34.
