The apocalypse didn’t fall from the sky. It was born from a needle in a quiet hospital hallway. Kang Jaemin was just a brother trying to keep his younger sibling safe when the world suddenly ended. But that one good deed cost him everything when a monster's teeth tore into his arm. Waiting for the end, Jaemin didn’t die. Instead, something else took root. He became "Specimen Alpha" a new breed of predator, half-man, half-monster, with the power to crush steel and an instinct for the hunt that was second to none. But in a shattered world, the living are far more rotten than the dead. So when the world’s corrupt elite the billionaires and military commanders try to crush what little family he has left and turn him into their weapon, they make the biggest mistake of their lives. They woke the wrong devil. Alongside a handful of hardened survivors, with his brother as the only anchor to his sanity, Jaemin begins his warpath. He’s not just surviving. He's hunting. He will tear down their high-tech fortresses and shatter their hubris with his bare hands. "You thought you were gods in this new world? Let me show you how a god can die."

THE VARIANT: ZERO HOUR 23. KESALAHAN SI TUAN TUA
Teng neng neng neng. Teng neng neng neng.Melodi alarm klasik bernada ceria itu mengalun nyaring memecah kesunyian lobi utama Rumah Sakit Metropolitan. Di ruang seluas lapangan bola yang dipenuhi ribuan mayat hidup tersebut suara sekecil apa pun akan terdengar seperti petir. Apalagi suara alarm ponsel yang disetel pada volume maksimal.Waktu terasa berhenti. Darah di sekujur tubuh Jaemin membeku seketika.Krak. Krotak. Srek.Suara ribuan tulang leher yang bergeser secara bersamaan menciptakan gema menjijikkan yang memantul mantul di dinding kaca lobi. Ribuan kepala zombie yang tadinya menunduk dalam fase pasif kini tersentak naik secara serempak. Mata mata putih keruh yang kosong dan mematikan itu langsung mengunci target ke arah titik tengah lobi. Tepat di mana kelompok Jaemin berdiri membeku."Oh bangsat," umpat Jaemin dengan keputusasaan murni. Pemuda itu mencengkeram erat tangan Jihoon."Graaaaaargghh."Satu auman parau meledak dari arah depan. Auman itu langsung memicu reaksi ber

The gargantuan, heavily muscled carcass collapsed, crashing face-first onto the concrete landing floor. Its body, weighing hundreds of kilograms, rolled slowly down the steps with wet, heavy thuds, leaving behind a thick, pitch-black trail of blood that reeked unimaginably of death.The emergency stairwell returned to a dead silence. Only the sound of the five of them panting heavily, desperately gasping for oxygen, could be heard.Jaemin sat slouched against the bent iron railing. He clutched his neck, which was now decorated with a severely dark purple bruise. The monster's crushing grip had nearly pulverized his trachea. He coughed softly, spitting out the remaining blood from his mouth."You still breathing, Jaem?" Jinwoo asked from the corner of the room. The police officer clutched his left ribcage while wincing in severe agony. Jinwoo's face was completely pale, yet he forced a crooked, cynical smile. "I genuinely thought your head had popped right off.""Almost, you bastard,"

The oxygen supply to Jaemin's lungs was completely cut off. The giant hand gripping his neck felt exactly like a hydraulic press prepared to sever his head straight from his spine. Jaemin's vision began to blur rapidly. Black dots danced wildly across his retinas. The young man's legs kicked helplessly in the empty air, searching for a foothold he would never find. Directly beneath his boots gaped a dark abyss dropping dozens of meters down to the ground floor of the hospital. If he fell from this height, his head would absolutely shatter to pieces exactly like a rotten watermelon smashed onto the asphalt."Let go, you dog," Jaemin muttered, the words caught in his throat. His voice did not even come out at all. Only the sickening creak of his neck bones could be heard.His blood-coated fingers fought desperately to pry the monster's thick fingers away. He scratched and punched the giant's wrist repeatedly. But it was completely useless. This steroid mutant's strength existed entirely

The deep, bass-heavy roar that violently shook the concrete walls still rang deafeningly in Jaemin's ears. Standing directly in front of them was a living nightmare that completely defied every known law of normal human biology.The colossal zombie took a single heavy step forward. The entire landing violently shuddered. The man who had morphed into this abomination must have been a heavyweight bodybuilder or a professional athlete admitted to the second-floor VIP ward. But now, his body had swelled to twice its normal mass due to the mutation. The muscles in his biceps and chest had grotesquely hypertrophied, completely shredding his hospital patient uniform. Scraps of pale green fabric fluttered to the floor. The monster's pale skin was heavily laced with thick, bulging, pitch-black veins that writhed like overheated worms."Oh, what the fuck. Look at his damn muscles," Jinwoo cursed, his face completely drained of color. His hands trembled violently as he gripped his revolver. "Wha
