Rebirth in the Apocalypse: I Lay Low with Billions in Supplies

Lin Qi endures a horrific fate in the fifth year of the extreme cold apocalypse, where temperatures have plummeted to sixty degrees below zero. Betrayed by her fiancé, Song Mingxuan, and her stepmother, Zhao Yaqin, she is captured in a freezing basement. The couple, driven by starvation and greed, plan to drain her blood and butcher her flesh for food. As Zhao Yaqin cuts into Lin Qi’s thigh with a rusty knife, Lin Qi dies in agony, swearing a vicious oath of revenge before her consciousness fades.

Lin Qi awakens in her luxurious bed, realizing she has been reborn thirty days prior to the onset of the natural disasters. She remembers the coming catastrophe: heatwaves, floods, acid rain, and the extreme cold that will collapse civilization. When Song Mingxuan enters with a bowl of chicken soup, attempting to drug her into signing over her father’s inheritance, Lin Qi rejects her past weakness. Instead of drinking the soup, she splashes the boiling liquid onto his face, scalding him severely. This act shocks her stepmother and fiancé, revealing a newfound ruthlessness in Lin Qi.

During the confrontation, Lin Qi’s blood from a small cut activates an ancestral jade pendant, granting her an infinite spatial storage ability with absolute stasis. Items stored within remain in their exact state indefinitely, preserving heat, cold, and freshness. Simultaneously, she binds with a Doomsday Fortress System designed to help her build an invincible base. Recognizing the need for resources, Lin Qi contacts an underground broker to sell her shares in her father’s supermarket chain and her properties. She liquidates her assets for over fifteen billion yuan, ensuring the scum receive nothing as they are evicted from their homes.

To prevent suspicion while hoarding supplies, Lin Qi fabricates a story about having a malignant brain tumor and needing to travel overseas for treatment. She convinces Zhao Yaqin and Song Mingxuan that they are the sole heirs to her fortune, tricking them into believing they will inherit her wealth. In reality, she arranges for them to be sent to a chaotic slum in a foreign country, stripping them of their identities and leaving them to perish in the upcoming riots. With her enemies neutralized, Lin Qi begins her massive procurement operation.

Lin Qi rents a remote logistics warehouse to serve as a staging ground for her supplies. She places enormous orders with grain tycoons, purchasing tens of thousands of tons of rice, flour, cooking oil, salt, and sugar. She also buys out the entire provincial inventory of seasonings and two million packs of hot pot bases. Using her spatial ability, she absorbs these goods into her storage space at night, creating a hidden mountain of resources. Her shopping spree extends to the city’s most famous night markets and top-tier luxury restaurants, where she orders thousands of servings of cooked meals, including crayfish, barbecue, roast duck, and gourmet dishes.

Lin Qi’s preparations continue with the acquisition of fresh meat and seafood. She visits the largest slaughterhouses and cold-chain ports, buying out massive quantities of pork, beef, and seafood. Her goal is to stockpile enough food to last through the apocalypse while living in comfort. As the countdown to the disaster ticks down, Lin Qi tests her space by eating a freshly cooked meal that remains piping hot after hours of storage. She is now fully prepared to face the coming hell, armed with infinite supplies and a fortress system, ready to survive and exact her revenge on those who wronged her.
