The Zombie Attack Begins: A Second Chance in Hell
Thiago, an ordinary university student in New York, wakes up with an excruciating headache and an impossible reality: he has lived twenty years of a brutal zombie apocalypse, died as the last human, and is now back, one week before it all begins. Every memory is a vivid nightmare: the meteor that brought the "Plague," the fog that transformed the weakest into shambling monsters, and the horror of a world where death lurks around every corner.

But this is not the zombie story you know. Here, the undead carry pulsating crystals in their foreheads, and the more human brains they devour, the more they evolve, becoming terrifying aberrations, from the harmless White to the unstoppable Shimmering Black. And the danger doesn't just come from them: plants have become silent predators, animals have evolved into untamable beasts – giant ants, rhinocerous-skinned tigers, and even more grotesque monsters lurking in the oceans and skies.

Thiago carries an even greater secret: a mysterious System, accessible only by thought, that allows him to evolve, acquire magical abilities, and purchase equipment with the zombies' crystals. It's an unprecedented power, but with a deadly condition: if he reveals its existence, he will die. He also knows of the enigmatic Entity that appears in colorful beams of light, trading precious items for these same crystals, an entity that humanity in despair will learn to fear and depend on.

With only seven days to prepare, Thiago must convince his family and friends to mortgage their homes and take refuge in a secret bunker, a self-sufficient underground fortress he knows from the future. He needs to train them, arm them, and prepare them for a world where survival is a bloody lottery and every decision can mean the difference between life and death.

"The Zombie Attack Begins" is a desperate race against time, where a man with the weight of the future on his shoulders fights to rewrite humanity's destiny. Will Thiago's knowledge be enough to change the course of an inevitable extinction, or is the world condemned to repeat the hell he has already lived? Discover a story of terror, sacrifice, and the relentless pursuit of a second chance in a world where every street is a certain death.

The New York sunlight, once a reminder of the carefree life he'd lost, now felt like a relentless spotlight, exposing the urgency of every second. "This time, I won't let my parents, my sister, and my roommates die," Thiago thought to himself, the phrase echoing in his mind like a sacred oath. Determination set his jaw, transforming the initial anguish into a cold, calculating resolve. He had seen their deaths, felt the pain of their loss, the guilt of being helpless. Now, he had a chance. One week.
