Apocalypse Corpse Herder: My Zombies Evolve

The corpse on Mo Deqian’s table sits up, clutches his wrist, and calmly tells him the world is ending. On the night the Soul-Eroding Virus goes live, a broke mortuary science student is preparing his uncle’s body for cremation. Instead, his uncle “wakes,” warns him that the dead will soon outnumber the living, and shoves a bloodstained notebook into his hands—his family’s forbidden Corpse Herding Manual. Minutes later, the hospital’s morgue is under siege. Power is failing, backup generators are dying, and nearly a hundred preserved cadavers are about to thaw and turn. Surrounded by steel drawers of future monsters, Deqian has one insane chance at survival: follow the manual, bind a corpse, and turn the dead into his weapon. There’s just one problem. The “fresh female cadaver” on his slab still has a pulse. When the mysterious girl wakes and starts dismantling zombies with surgical precision, Deqian realizes two things: she’s more dangerous than she looks… and he’s not the only one hiding secrets. Because when he finally completes his first ritual and forges a corpse thrall from his uncle’s body, a translucent panel appears. [Corpse Herder System Initialized] [Corpse Thrall: Lv. 1] [Unique Trait: Devour to Evolve] Every zombie his thralls consume strengthens them. Every kill feeds the System, unlocking skills, evolutions, and new corpse types. Bone-clad guardians, plague-spreading scouts, hulking abominations—his potential army is only limited by how much flesh he dares to harvest. In sealed hospitals, collapsing cities, and corpse-choked wastelands, humanity is running out of bullets and time. But Mo Deqian has something the apocalypse never planned for: a growing legion of obedient, ever-evolving dead. As his power swells and the line between shepherd and monster blurs, will he remain human in a world that rewards him for feeding it corpses… or become the ultimate overlord of the ruined earth?
