To rise from defeat; to revive amidst the dissipation.... more>>

As the vast oceans turn to dust and the thunder and lightning fade away,

That strand of spiritual mist once again approaches our great world.

With the shackles that bound our world now severed—

A whole new world of mystery and wonder awaits,

As we turn the corner…

The Sacred Ruins is a story set in a post-apocalyptic world. A world that has recovered to a state that is roughly equal to our own world in terms of technology and culture, although its ancient history remains largely unknown. The story begins during the post-graduation trip of our protagonist, where he discovers some ancient ruins and witnesses “the great change”, an upheaval that changed everything. The changing earth not only brought about new, unexplored landscape but also sparked the evolution of all organisms. Plants and animals started gaining sentience and some humans obtained unimaginable powers. The legends, myths, and tales of old seemed to have suddenly come to life as the earth entered a new era where beasts and men formed factions, explored new lands and ultimately struggled for supremacy. <<less

Partisan disputes in the empire made the ever-neutral Shen family a victim of internal conflict. They were accused of unwarranted crimes. Overnight, families that had been well-connected with each other had drawn their boundaries.... more>>

The Shen family was ransacked, and only the two remaining children were thrown into prison and became inmates.

Shen Moyan at that time had two wishes.

One is to protect his sister, and the other is to find evidence that can prove the family’s innocence.

After losing the remaining family member, the second wish does not seem to be so important.

What about proven innocence?

He wanted the entire empire to be buried with them.

[So, do you want to become stronger ? ] <<less

Day 32, Month 13. The world is too small.... more>>

70 boys and girls are forced to live together in a strange underground facility.
After a single boy disappears without anybody noticing, a group of friends follow his trails and end up learning more about the mysterious facility than they should have.

After Ou Zeyan woke up from the cold, he found himself lying on the dense grass. Everything had vanished from his house, with the room crammed with flowers and plants.... more>>

An ant the size of a rabbit scraped through the wall of his living room. After approaching a giant cactus, it was pierced and nailed to the ground.

Ou Zeyan’s pupils shook, and he felt he was not fully awake.

He heard screams ring through the sky outside, and before there was a chance to look for the source, a pleasant noise sounded.

[Apocalypse online, the game has started! Aquamarine players, please exterminate the mutated plants and work hard to survive~!]

Everything in the world had vanished. All that was left were resources that could only be obtained by the exchange column with points earned from killing mutated lifeforms in the form of drawing cards. A player could draw an attack, defense, magic weapons, props, supplies, or other items. However, it was all random.

Those fortunate enough managed to draw treasure at every turn, as some unlucky ones could only get repetitive, useless props - it all relies on luck.

Ou Zeyan, who was hapless for over twenty years, suddenly became lucky after the apocalypse! He had never drawn repeated items, and all of them were useful. He hugged the [absolute safe house - gold] and cried tears of happiness. It turned out that being lucky was such a good thing!

Ever since, he battled with mutated lifeforms as if on fire every day, just for the empty safe house.

Stockpile! Stockpile!! Stockpile!!! My house is going to be an actual home!

[Lucky shou who relies on equipment X the unlucky gong depends entirely on force to survive]

Card ranks: white, blue, pink, purple, gold, platinum (can only be synthesized)

The gong had always had bad luck, his luck didn’t go to the shou. It is just that it got even worse after the apocalypse! (The attack power is too high and is being suppressed by the system. Not only him, but it’s that way for many others with high attack powers.)

The shou is lucky since he had been unlucky for over 20 years. He bounced back after hitting rock bottom, and the power was conserved. <<less

As monsters appear all over the world, an unprecedented panic has ensued.... more>>

Cities and dungeons are intermingled.

New skill, level, and status rules.

Furthermore, the appearance of aliens from other worlds transformed the entire planet into a lawless zone.

I was flying back to Japan on a passenger plane when I noticed a flying dragon.

I was able to defeat it after a bloody struggle, but the plane exploded and crashed into the sea.

After three days of drifting, I managed to make it to land.

I rejoice in the face of an irreversibly altered world.

“This is fantastic! This is going to be a lot of fun for me!”

The new world was a pleasant surprise.

Because the original world was dull, this was just the right amount of fun.

This was the exact situation I was looking for.

I’m not sure how this happened, and to be honest, I’m not particularly interested.

That’s fine as long as I can have fun with it.

If you level up after defeating a dragon, you can enjoy yourself to the fullest.

With my heart racing, I decided to enjoy the end of the world. <<less

Five years ago, Tan Mo idolized Luo Qingyun. Alas, the renowned Luo Qingyun gave him a B on his internship task and even the rest of the famous team don’t remember his face.... more>>

Five years later, Tan Mo never thought he would become Luo Qingyun’s “worldly fantasy” (ahem). Unfortunately, Tan Mo’s idolization of Luo Qingyun was already shattered and his heart was as hard as iron.

“Hehe, payback is on its way, just wait.”

The captain of Team 1, Luo Qingyun, is said to always be wearing a pair of black gloves. Some say he was bitten by supernatural creatures and the gloves hide hideous scars. Others speculate he was burned and never takes them off to avoid infection.

During a mission, Team 2’s vice captain Tan Mo fired a beautiful, soul-stirring shot that captured Luo Qingyun’s attraction.

Fortunately, some of the surviving humans awakened to genetic martial arts! Breaking the shackles of one’s genetics was the foundation of cultivating martial arts. Lin Feng, who was born with cong**ital disease, could not experience a breakthrough. However, by some fateful encounter, he awakened to the ability to merge genes.... more>>

In generations past, the Zhang family ancestors were descendants of the Daoist Zhengyi Sect. However, by the time Zhang Shuhe came around, their influence had long fallen into decline.... more>>

Unexpectedly, he found himself back ten years prior. The moment of his rebirth, his first act was to leap off the sofa and rush into the cluttered storeroom, searching for the sole remaining Daoist artifact in his home — a dusty, neglected statue of the Heavenly Emperor, tossed into a corner… <<less

On his way out to find Dr. Jang, Tae Yoo-joon encounters a strange man, Won Hyuk, the owner of a pharmaceutical company. He says Dr. Jang sent a new drug formula, suggesting that the two of them go to find Dr. Jang through a group of zombies.

“If you accompany me, you can get a pistol and a former F1 racer driving skills. also, I’ll give you my heart’s content, Father.”

“The first two offers are good, but let’s exclude the last one .”

Tae Yoo-joon feels a sense of repulsion at Won-hyeok’s smirk.

However, the city of Seoul, covered with zombies, is too dangerous to shake off his outstretched hand.

“What should I give you in return for your company?”

“Just a pat on the head every once in a while whenever I have a headache. I think it’s a generous condition, what do you think?”

A strange relationship with a man who appeared without a warn.

What will Tae Yoo-joon get involved in with a suspicious man in this ruined world. <<less

In an apocalyptic world where a highly corrosive fog has been decimating cities and causing huge numbers of casualties, citizens live in a constant state of panic and worry. With the government struggling to prevent further tragedies, it was difficult for people to carry on with hope when they’re uncertain about their own futures.... more>>

Ye Zhao is blessed with an uncanny ability to sense when this fog will appear. He uses this skill to alert his friends, Luo Xiaochen and Xia Zhiming, and those who will listen to his advice online. A life saved lives on for another day, and with Ye Zhao’s ‘sixth sense’ guiding them through the chaos, the three have been able to evade the worst of the fog and keep their little lives intact till now.

Sometimes, it really helps when you have a friend who is even more reliable than the weatherman…

However, amongst all the chaos, Ye Zhao slowly realizes that his senses are becoming more and more sensitive. He was seeing things that normal people couldn’t see, hearing things that normal people couldn’t hear…What is this? Is he slowly going crazy?

To add the cherry on top of his chaotic life, he is unexpectedly reunited with his old flame, Nie Renyan, when Luo Xiaochen finds him lying unconscious near his apartment building. Once tight lovers, and now practically strangers, Ye Zhao finds himself with many questions and the burning urge to strangle the man who broke his heart by suddenly vanishing from his life.

Why did you leave? Where did you go? Why did you show your face after all these years?

With Nie Renyan’s opportune reappearance which only creates more questions than answers, Ye Zhao suddenly finds himself embroiled in a mystery that involves a world beyond his wildest imagination. What are these fantastical beasts? What does this have to do with the fog and with Ye Zhao himself? Nie Renyan, just what the hell are you?! <<less

Have you ever seen a fly larger than a human?... more>>

Have you ever witnessed an ant mightier than a human?

Have you ever encountered a sparrow resembling an ancient colossal beast?

Everything I knew has undergone an earth-shattering transformation!

Ji Chang was at a loss for words on how to describe it, but there was one word that fit most appropriately: immense!

Immense! Tremendously immense! Astonishingly immense! To the extent that even a small blade of grass has turned into a towering tree!

However, the cause behind all these changes wasn’t that objects themselves grew larger, but rather Ji Chang discovered that he had become smaller.

Tiny! Incredibly tiny! Unbelievably tiny! So minuscule that even a gentle breeze could send a person soaring through the air! <<less

Tae-baek, who tried to speak calmly,

“…”
“And maybe, you will love me too.”

Shin-hu chuckles without answering.

‘Eaters’ flocked around these two.

A land covered with snow-white sand, an air with a foul smell of sulfur, and a land where it was difficult to breathe without a purifier. A gloomy future where even tomorrow’s life could not be guaranteed.... more>>

Faced with a desperate crisis, humanity sculpts the dragon’s corpse to create eight cities. The chosen move to a new city, and the unchosen are left in the desolate Dead sea.

The ‘Theory of Paradise’ will be supported by three pillars. The three of them will be attending the school at the same time, dreaming and sharing the same senses, so they will surely acknowledge each other’s presence.

1000 years after the city was built, three youths who were abandoned and destroyed by the world faced an old prophecy.

“Tell me, you will never love me.”

“You said there was a light outside the tunnel, but to me, the light was you.”

Even in the gloomy dystopian era, the three main characters, Eun Woo, Jae Hee, and Yoon Hwan, were constantly in dynamism. They faced their fate head-on and continued to carry out their own beliefs that they firmly believed on. Through this, it showed how important “love” was in choosing the direction of life, how courageous choices were gathered to change the world, and how overwhelming the ‘love-induced revolution’ was.

‘Theory of Paradise’ was the story of three people who had fallen into hell and had lived desperately, trying to change the world for the one they love, and eventually finding light in the dark. <<less

Unknown viruses have swept across the globe, plants and animals have collectively upgraded and evolved, and human beings are facing a great challenge to their survival.... more>>

The military research institute has developed a serum that can make humans stronger, claiming that it can bring them back to the top of the food chain.

Like most alphas, the Gong injected the serum, entered the army and became the strongest man in the federation with his strong combat power and great achievements.

Soon after, his subordinates died in tragic circumstances one by one, and he died in a frenzy due to a strong reaction to the serum.

Waking up again, he returned to the day he injected the serum.

Looking at the needle in his arm, the Gong: “……”

Couldn’t have been an hour earlier, huh?

In his last life, there was a mechanic who was always against the Gong, a staunch serum opponent who was clearly an ordinary alpha but was able to fight very beautifully with his mechanical puppets.

To avoid repeating his mistakes,the Gong escaped from the army to find him. Just after arriving in the suburbs, the Gong encounters a swarm of mutant wasps and is saved before he can do anything about it.

The Shou sits on a mechanical golem and looks down at him coldly: Want to be my model? No clothes kind of.

Gong: ……

Later, the Gong accidentally discovered that Shou’s pheromones could alleviate his rejection reaction.

The Gong ruffled his long hair and smiled: Still want to draw?

Shou: ……

. . .

First – I heard there’s a very strong mechanic in the Federation, notoriously cold-blooded, but heavily face-controlled, and if he likes your face, he’ll allow you to make one request.

It’s said that his house is full of cutting-edge weapons that he has developed and that his house has more sketches of beauties than weapons.

Later – I heard that his sketches of beauties were sold out by the new model who set up a stall.

. . .

Gong: Still accepting models? For free.

Shou: Get lost. <<less

As a serious game to save the world, why aren’t my players taking it seriously?... more>>

You were brought here to farm, mine, build infrastructure, and research technology, yet all you do is look for glitches or try to skip class?

Can’t grow crops in cold weather? That must be a bug in the weather system, but the high-power microwave radar from the research institute can come in handy!

Mining is too tiresome? A nuclear bomb to blow off the top and turn it into an open-pit mine!

Not enough people in the settlement? Well…

After crossing into the post-apocalyptic world, Chen Jiu unlocked the Particle Reconstruction System, which could summon players from the real world. He wanted these players to obediently work for him and help rebuild the ruins of civilization brick by brick, but these players seemed to have no sense of being a worker.

Work? There’s no time for work, the only way to rebuild civilization is to take shortcuts without hesitation.

Years later, when food was available, technology was upgraded, and population had grown, Chen Jiu couldn’t help but ask himself: Is this a bug?

No, this is game mechanics! <<less

After a red meteor slashed through the heavens, human progress ground to a halt. ... more>>

Since that momentous day, humanity lost its ability to create rockets, nuclear weapons, airplanes, cars...

The towering pyramid of civilization, meticulously built from the achievements of modern science, crumbled into dust.

Yet, the catastrophe didn't stop there. The grey realm, following the arrival of the red meteor, like a ghostly reflection behind a mirror, dragged the civilized world bit by bit into the abyss of disorder.

In this new age, a human life was no more significant than a speck of dust, yet amidst the ruins, humanity's spirit shone as brightly as the stars.

Amid the crumbling edifice, observers could see a figure—an actor—defiantly standing on the wreckage of civilization, his red cloak as vivid as blood, his expressions flickering between laughter and tears. Behind him, the curtain of the era gently parted. With arms wide open, he whispered to all who would listen— "Let the show begin." <<less
