Chapter 1 - Rebirth, Revenge

Suddenly, I was reborn before the arrival of the apocalypse, and I swore to make my girlfriend's family pay.

I checked the time; there were 10 days left until the apocalypse. The most important thing was to stockpile supplies. However, the ongoing high temperatures made it impossible to store food, and I no longer wanted to eat rotten food.

At that moment, a huge black hole appeared before my eyes. When I walked into it, I found myself in a space spanning thousands of square kilometers. I immediately recognized it as my spatial ability from my previous life. I didn't expect this ability to be retained after being reborn. Now, the storage and preservation of food were both solved.

First, I needed to prepare enough funds to survive, but this wouldn't stop me. I went through all the loan apps on my phone and instantly received hundreds of thousands. With my current savings totaling 2.6 million, I felt a bit hungry after doing all this. 

So, I took a taxi to a five-star hotel in the city to order a lavish meal. At that moment, the goddess Su Qingqing, who betrayed me in the past, called. I heard her angrily say, "Fang Chen, my mom knows you've helped me a lot; she wants to treat you to dinner at the Luxe City Hotel."

Hearing this, I sneered inwardly. In my past life, I believed her lies and thought her parents wanted Su Qingqing to marry me. Excitedly, I bought tens of thousands worth of gifts, only to realize later that I was just being used to foot the bill.

This time, I won't let it go that easily. So, I immediately agreed and said I would go over right away. When I arrived, I saw the goddess I had longed for in the past. Upon seeing me, Su Qingqing skillfully squeezed out a sweet smile and called my name with a standard accent. 

Hearing this, I wanted to punch her in the face, but I held back, knowing the real show was yet to come. With a smile, I immediately said to the 18 members of their family, "Hurry up and go to the private room; I'm treating you all to dinner today."

Upon hearing my words, Su Qingqing's family's eyes lit up, and they immediately rushed into the private room. One person ordered a bottle of wine worth tens of thousands, and they wrote down all the dishes on the menu. After the dishes arrived, they devoured them like gluttons, stuffing the food into their mouths with their hands and even drinking directly from the bottle of wine.

I just smiled and watched them eat, waiting until they were halfway through their meal. I made an excuse to go to the restroom and then left the hotel without looking back. Since I didn't order or eat anything, I naturally didn't have to pay for the bill. I took a taxi to another restaurant, ordered a big meal just for myself, and enjoyed the food happily. 

Unexpectedly, Su Qingqing called me, but I didn't even look at it, treating the phone ringtone as pre-dinner music. I wondered what kind of reaction they would have when they saw the bill of 500,000. Thinking about it, the food in my mouth suddenly tasted better.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Su Qingqing was pacing back and forth anxiously, repeatedly calling me like a clown. Looking at the bill of 540,000 in her hand, her head was spinning. When her relatives found out that I had left, their expressions changed instantly, each claiming to have something urgent at home. 

Seeing that everyone was about to leave, Su Qingqing became anxious. Ignoring her pride, she loudly told the waiter that they had also eaten, pleading not to let them leave. Upon hearing this, her relatives immediately refused, and a few hot-tempered women started a physical fight with Su Qingqing and her daughter, making the scene extremely intense.

Just after finishing my meal and stepping out of the restaurant, I saw a police car roaring by. Someone mentioned that a family was dining at the Luo City Grand Hotel, but the one treating them ran away. They couldn't pay the bill, so the family started fighting, even causing the police to intervene.

After hearing this, I couldn't be bothered because what I was about to do next was to build an indestructible fortress for the apocalypse. For this reason, I rented a 300-square-meter factory. At temperatures as high as 60 degrees, living in a high-rise is undoubtedly like living in a steamer, while a factory can perfectly solve this issue.

However, just having the factory wasn't enough; I also called a refrigeration company. I asked them to build a top-notch cold storage for me, with the most powerful refrigeration effect in the world, because I knew that ordinary refrigerators wouldn't suffice in the apocalypse.

Upon hearing my request, the other party immediately understood the importance and mentioned they had developed a new product with a cooling effect of minus 50 degrees. Ordinary refrigeration equipment can only reach a maximum of minus 20 degrees, so upon hearing this, I was delighted and immediately requested them to complete the construction within three days.

Unexpectedly, the other party made a bold move, stating that for such a short time frame, additional money was required, totaling 6 million for the 300-square-meter area. I thought it was a bit beyond my budget, as with the previous loan of 600,000, I only had a total of 2.6 million. But I still agreed without hesitation and immediately transferred 2 million to the other party because I knew such a large project definitely wouldn't be paid in full at once.

As for the remaining payment, I was not worried at all. After all, the end of the world was less than 10 days away. Who will remember the penalty for breach of contract at that time? We quickly agreed on the location to sign the contract, arranged by the manager of this company, Wang Qiang. He smiled and flattered me, saying, "Sir, you are truly talented. I wonder what business you are in that requires such high-quality refrigeration."

However, I expressed that he didn't need to know because I knew that those who keep a low profile survive the longest. Therefore, I didn't plan to trouble myself. But this made Wang Qiang even more curious, thinking it must be about the latest refrigeration equipment and willing to pay extra to complete it within three days. He must have hidden some valuable items, but on the surface, he just kept nodding.

After finishing these tasks, I planned to go to a restaurant for a meal. Unexpectedly, as soon as I entered, I heard several cats crying miserably. I saw a child grabbing a cat's tail, pulling it back and forth, causing the cat to cry out in pain. I originally didn't want to meddle in other people's business. But when I saw the tail of that cat, there was a symbol resembling lightning.

I immediately pushed away the child who was tormenting the cat and then picked up the cat to examine its hindquarters. When I confirmed that the cat was female, I excitedly determined that it was an Electra cat, as there were two types of viruses that appeared after the apocalypse. One type is the zombie virus; the other type is the purification virus. These two viruses can infect any animals or plants, and the Electra cat has been infected with the purification virus. It will use its electrical abilities to sneak attack humans, causing many to perish at its hands.

However, I was not afraid at all because I knew that the Electra cat is not actually evil; it's just seeking revenge on humans. If I can tame it in advance, I will gain a powerful ally, and more importantly, it is a walking power generator.

At that moment, a middle-aged chubby woman with a greasy mouth ran towards me. She claimed that I had injured her child and demanded 1,000 yuan in compensation. Upon hearing this, I was furious, not putting up with her nonsense. Didn't she see her child torturing a cat? I just gently pushed him. If she kept talking nonsense, I'd smack her mouth. After speaking, I directly pushed the fat woman away, ignoring her curses from behind.

I picked up the Electra cat and left, not wasting any time on the way. I also bought some cat food. The first thing I did when I got home was to feed the Electra cat immediately because I knew I had to establish a good relationship first in order to completely tame it before it evolves. It didn't disappoint me either, grabbing the cat food and devouring it eagerly.

After doing all this, I checked my remaining balance, realizing that my current funds were far from sufficient. So I immediately thought of mortgaging my family's property. The end of the world is here, might as well mortgage it for the New Year. So I went to the bank to mortgage for a loan, and instantly my balance reached 4 million. But this was far from enough because next, I needed to buy a large amount of food, medicine, and renovate the house.

Of course, the more funds, the better. So I inquired about private loans again and found that in the local city, there are three large private lending organizations. These companies resort to violent debt collection, so they are not afraid if you don't repay, they are afraid if you don't borrow.

As soon as I arrived at a lending company, I saw a man who couldn't repay his debts. He was beaten until he was bloody, and those people were looking at me while beating him, as if telling me that not repaying leads to this fate. However, I remained calm, after all, the end of the world is approaching, and whether they can survive is uncertain. Even if they survive and find themselves, when the Electra cat meows, they will

 all be electrocuted into coke.

Seeing me approaching, a bald man immediately walked up with a smile, asking, "How much do you want to borrow?" 

Without thinking, I said, "How much can you lend me?" 

Upon hearing my words, the other party chuckled and took out a blank sheet of paper, then asked me to write down my ID number and mobile phone number. I looked at the man who had been beaten like a bloody gourd, hesitated for a moment, but still wrote it down because I knew my remaining balance was really not enough to cope with the upcoming apocalypse. 

Sure enough, I had just finished writing when a man walked over with two sacks of money, totaling 8 million, and I signed a 12 million contract. After receiving the money, the bald man laughed and asked me to repay it in a month. If I couldn't repay, he wouldn't mind making me disappear. Upon hearing this, I was furious and thought to myself, it would be better if they come to trouble me after a month. However, I still nodded and smiled, expressing that I would definitely repay it on time, then took the money and left.

With sufficient funds, I immediately rented the largest supermarket in the local area and hired a lot of people to buy supplies with all my might. Finally, on the last day of the apocalypse, the cold storage was also completed. However, the Electra cat began to evolve the moment the cold storage was completed. It fiercely ran into the warehouse, electrocuting the entire cold storage, and then was out of strength, lying on the ground, dying.

Seeing this scene, I was furious, thinking that I wouldn't lose everything. But after thinking about it, I felt that this Electra cat could help me fight a bloody path, so I immediately bought a lot of fresh fish and other meat, and then filled it with all the canned food I bought. After completing these, I also took out all the high-priced food I bought and put it in the warehouse.

Just as I finished these, the entire sky turned black, and there was a deafening bang. The next second, the air temperature rose rapidly, the wind whistled, and heavy rain poured down, hitting my face like a knife, making me feel a tingling pain. 

I immediately ran back to the warehouse, firmly locked the door. The warehouse was well-constructed, so I was not worried about it collapsing. But the heat in the air made me unbearable, so I had to continuously drink water to relieve it. Just when I thought everything was over, the ground began to shake, like an earthquake. I knew that the apocalyptic black hole had arrived. The temperature rose rapidly, the wind whistled, and the ground was covered with heavy rain, hitting my face like a knife, making me feel a tingling pain.

In order to survive the heat, I had to continuously drink water to relieve it. Just when I thought everything was over, the ground began to shake, like an earthquake. I knew that the apocalyptic black hole had arrived.
