[Infinite Knowledge Quiz]
Question: When you return home and find a ghost resting on your bed, you rush to the door, only to hear eerie noises outside. You look out through the peephole and see another ghost preparing to open your front door. What should you do in this situation?... more>>

Among various answers like “hide in the shoe cabinet” or “hide in the kitchen,” Jie Fangcheng chooses to slowly draw his sword: first, kill the one on the bed, and then kill the one in the elevator.

***
After working diligently for 1,500 years in the underworld, Jie Fangcheng finally retired as an outstanding employee.
His kind-hearted boss asked him, “Would you like to return to the mortal world? That way, you can continue your work as a 007 agent in the underworld after a hundred and eighty years.”
Jie Fangcheng nodded in agreement.

When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in an infinite game.
The game, “Do Not Respond,” was renowned for its horror, bloodshed, and cruelty. The survival rate in its dungeons did not exceed thirty percent, and death in the game meant real-life death.
Mysterious mountain villages.
Terrifying fairy tale towns.
Apocalyptic Battle Royales…

As players contemplated how to survive in the dungeons, Jie Fangcheng diligently guided and redeemed each NPC.
Jie Fangcheng: “Hello, I’m a recently retired department manager… and now I’m back on the job!”

***
It is said that a newcomer has entered the game, and the dungeon they entered has never been reset.

***
It is also said that someone witnessed NPCs panicking and running around.
Player: How is that possible…

Jie Fangcheng stabbed the ghost leader with his sword, completing the redemption, and wiped his blade: “Who’s next?!”

#What kind of lousy game is this? ［Do Not Respond］but I’ll respond!

#Trying to steal people from the underworld? Did you ask us, the official personnel of the underworld?

Consumption Notes:
1. Not a leveling-focused story, starting at maximum level.
2. Attack and defense mechanics deviate from the traditional rules. The game allows for forced storyline alterations and NPC manipulation.
3. Features a significant number of supporting character perspectives, god-like viewpoint, but not a large ensemble cast. Main focus is on the protagonist and their romantic interest.

When he woke up, he was back to where he was before the fire.

The path of immortality is nigh unachievable.... more>>

Furthermore, the immortal world has been completely transformed by a plague!

When immortals contact infected mortals, their cultivation bases fall, or worse, they return to the heavens; thus, the immortal and mortal realms have been eternally separated.

Moreover, all immortal arts may only have one practitioner; thus, the world of immortality has become a dark forest.

…

Although Li Fan had grand ambitions when he first transmigrated to this world, he could only be trapped in mediocrity, slowly wasting away his mundane life.

Fortunately, as he was dying, he finally awakened a supreme treasure that could turn truth into lie and reality into dream, reversing time to when he first arrived!

Following this, Li Fan embarked on his endless path to immortality!

In his second life, Li Fan ascended through politics and ruled the world after 50 years, but after searching worldwide, he found no trace of the Immortal Dao. Only at the end of his life could he glimpse the immortal path.

In the third life, despite immense efforts and carefully laid schemes, Li Fan ultimately couldn’t resist a single strike of an immortal’s sword!

In the fourth life…

…

I, Li Fan, an ordinary mortal, will harbor no regrets throughout a thousand lifetimes, all for the pursuit of immortality! <<less

After transmigrating into the 'Return of the Dragon King' novel, Guo Yi discovered that he could summon ghostly ninjas, and from then on aspires to be a ruthless villain.... more>>

His sister, one of the heroines, tried to expel Guo Yi from the Guo family.

Guo Yi: "You killed Mom and Dad and want to expel me from the Guo family, what a white-eyed wolf."

Sister: "Everything is for Brother Jiang Chen."

Guo Yi: "Without the identity of the Guo family's daughter and your pretty face, do you think Jiang Chen would still like you?"

Sister: "I believe in Brother Jiang Chen. You wouldn't be able to comprehend the love that Brother Jiang Chen and I have for one another."

Guo Yi directly kicked his white-eyed wolf sister out of the Guo family.

Two months later, his sister knelt before Guo Yi and cried: "Brother, let me go back to the Guo family."

Guo Yi: "Get lost."

A few decades later, Guo Yi established the world's number one mansion, with the corpses of the sons of heaven's destiny under his feet.

While his sister killed the protagonist with her own hands, she became homeless. <<less

"You're not even dating Young Duke Macmildon, and you're trying to keep him all to yourself. How can you do that? That's too much. You're so selfish, Lady!"... more>>

It was a ridiculous question, and the selfish one was the woman who only said what she wanted to say just now. There was no need to be polite to someone like that, so Chloe ignored her and walked away.

The pink-haired woman's cries that echoed through the air, like the wailing of a ghost, were very unpleasant.

*

An absurd situation left her no choice but to doubt her eyes: the strange pink-haired woman she met a few days ago was staring at her in the mirror, and her real body, Chloe Elena, was lying with her eyes closed.

Before she could even figure out what the hell was going on,

"Who are you?"

A sharp gaze, a low, cold voice. If words could hit people, she'd be hit with dozens of them. It left Chloe unable to say anything.

But she couldn't stay like this forever. She had to say something, anything, to clear up the misunderstanding.

"......."
"I'm Chloe!

But in this pink-haired woman's body, there was no way she would be believed.

Chloe had to think fast. A way out of this crazy reality. <<less

One day, his roommates were discussing what type of girls were the cutest.... more>>

Su Lin didn’t speak a word from beginning to end. He waited for them to finish then snickered disdainfully, “By your standards, slightly pretty and dumb little dwarves are considered cute.”

—

Later, he went to the French department for an elective class and got poked in the back.

Turning around, he saw a little girl.

Big eyes, white skin, pretty and tiny. She looked…. s*upidly cute.

Lu Yuanyuan looked at the guy’s handsome face and carefully asked, “Classmate, excuse me, can you let me through?”

The voice was very small, the tone matching the person, soft and sticky.

….. So f*cking cute.

Su Lin’s heart was about to jump out of his chest.

He suppressed his emotions and said: “Okay, tell me your name first.” <<less

After enduring serveral difficulties with its host, system number 2333 was finally given the opportunity to live a peaceful and happy life.... more>>

The twenty-four filial host was whispering softly in the ear of the mechanical cat ball, who was lying in the cathouse.

“Sansan, isn’t the mall’s 12% discount too low? Maybe it should be 15% off?”

“Sansan, what is your mission target for this month? I’ll make it twice as big. No way, I will triple it.”

System No. 2333: “Wow!”

His host is fantastic! He is extremely fortunate to have such a wonderful host.

The happiness, however, did not last long, and the system 2333 was shocked by the bad news – The main system has collapsed! An Infinite space was collapsing!

Among the shattering space debris, No. 2333 could have walked away, but he hesitated again and again, and finally gritting his teeth and he turned around to retrieve his host.

“Fear not! Shout out for Daddy, I’ll save you, Host!”

Ji Yiwei initially assumed that No. 2333 would simply leave him behind, but when he noticed the mechanical cat ball speeding up and flying back towards him, he changed his mind. He burst out laughing and hid his hand behind his back. Now that his little cat ball has voluntarily returned to him, he would never let Sansan go again.

What System 2333 didn't know was, on the hidden hand of his host was- the head of the main system. <<less

The daughter of the Earl, Rosa, was known for her beauty and compassion. But in reality, she was a rotten lady who pursued her 'moe' by making delusions of 'rose love', the romance between men.... more>>

Her dream was to become a nun and write down a 'bible', spreading the rose love throughout the continent.

As the preparation of entering the priesthood, she donated to the monastery (as a bribe), strived to improve literacy (to prepare for her missionary work), and made humus for her territory (as the symbol of rottenness). One day, she met her half-brother, Bernard, a fourteen years old boy.

Concluding that Bernard was the ideal 'uke', a talented person that only appeared once every a thousand years, Rose devoted herself to 'Bell-tan's Harem Plan'. However, her rotten behavior was mistaken for noble deeds. The princes, princesses, and even the foreign princes started to get involved, and she began to spread her influence all over the country...?

This was the story of Rosa von Langheim, nicknamed the "Rose Angel" as the symbol of her nobility and charity, who was the most rotten lady of all. <<less

Li Zhizhi was taken back to the capital at the age of fifteen to recognize her ancestral roots. As the true eldest daughter of the Li family, she should have been cherished. However, everyone preferred Li Suwan, who was knowledgeable, polite, and clever. As for Li Zhizhi, she grew up in a remote and impoverished village, ignorant of the ways of the world, and her name even carried a sense of disdain.... more>>

One night, Li Zhizhi had a dream in which she returned to the Li family in her previous life and desperately competed with Li Suwan for favor. She studied diligently, excelling in literature, music, painting, and etiquette, surpassing Li Suwan in every aspect. But on that day, while everyone comforted Li Suwan, Li Zhizhi was still the one who was despised.

When she woke up, Li Zhizhi went to see her father, her eyes red, and said, “Father, please send me back to the countryside. As soon as I returned to the mansion, my sister’s health deteriorated. It must be because I have an unlucky fate that has harmed her.”

Li Zhizhi’s father was taken aback and said, “Why do you say such things? Suwan is just sick. She will recover after seeing the doctor.”

Sure enough, a few days later, Li Suwan’s illness improved.

With her skill in brewing green tea, Li Zhizhi’s days in the mansion became much better. Until one day, she met the Crown Prince, Xiao Yan, who saw through her tricks at first sight. Upon their first meeting, Xiao Yan believed that Li Zhizhi had ulterior motives and refused to give her the opportunity to use him. He watched as Li Zhizhi pretended to be obedient and innocent, clinging to the thighs of various influential figures, prospering in the capital. The Empress treated her as an adopted daughter, noble ladies treated her as a sister, the favored concubines in the palace regarded her as a close friend, and she even received the title of a county princess. Countless men who were attracted to her couldn’t be counted with just one hand. Even his own younger sister called out for Li Zhizhi to be her sister every day.

Xiao Yan waited and waited, but Li Zhizhi never sought his support. Unable to bear it any longer, he finally asked her, “Do you want to become the Crown Princess?”

Li Zhizhi didn’t want to. <<less

[Update in Progress: Bug Fixing]... more>>

‘The Mayor Simulator’ is a game with an intriguing design.

As an infrastructure-building game, the protagonist can be killed by NPCs but can resurrect unconditionally.

However, there’s a bug in Vivi’s game: after resurrection, her body doesn’t disappear.

Looking at the body in front of her, she comes up with one, two, three, four, five daring ideas—

Being the mayor of Gotham City is a high-risk job.

But their new mayor seems to be doing quite well, lively and active even after more than a month.

Those who paid for the mayor’s life are furious, giving the assassins poor reviews.

One day, a certain Bat in the midst of battle accidentally enters the lady mayor’s office and knocks open a cabinet.

Dozens of casually stacked bodies tumble out of the cabinet with a thud.

The Bat: …

【Please select how to deal with your body—

[a. Spend 1000 gold and send it for cremation]
[b. Hide it in the nearby cabinet/box/under the desk]】

Vivi: I choose option c! Gain greater economic benefit from the BUG!” <<less

She is an ex-wife who is killed by the male lead of a R-19 novel.... more>>

I couldn’t even do anything because when I woke up here, my wedding vows were already over.

I don’t know what my husband does, but he often comes back covered in blood.

I learned how to heal wounds with magic.

Unlike the original, I was close with my husband’s beautiful sister.

I have always been nice to my husband’s stepson.

…… Far from getting a safe divorce, it seems like I got caught in a trap.

“You’ve been working so hard on social activities, so it seems like you have caught an eye with another bastard?”

I confessed that I had an unrequited love that I didn’t even have.

My husband’s reaction, which has always been cold, is unusual. <<less

I have become an extra who was killed in a contract marriage novel. Wanting to survive, I borrowed the role of the female lead and proposed a contract marriage to the male lead.... more>>

The problem is, I get infatuated easily so I added a contract clause on my own.

[ Reinhardt Erestain actively cooperates not to seduce Irovel Hoover. ]

"What if you look at me with that handsome face of yours, and I fall for you? Don't look at me. Did you make an effort to become uglier?"

"I'm sorry. I'm trying my best."

I feel like I'm being stared at like a marked target by the people around me. Maybe it's just my feeling…?

After the contract period expired, the female lead eventually appeared. I needed to return the borrowed male lead to the female lead now, so I handed my husband the expired contract and tried to leave.

"Where are you going after teasing me for a year?"

"Teasing? What are you talking about?"

"You put a rule on not seducing me, but you actually seduced me to your heart's content."

When did I seduce you? I only set up a wall! As my husband looked at me with a puzzled expression, he pressed his lips with a heated gaze.

"Now that the contract has expired, it's time for you to be seduced, my wife." <<less

Qi Xiaoyu was a pillar of the Red Moon Troupe during the Republic of China period. He had a unique appearance, figure, and singing style. His ability to adapt to all kinds of people and situations is even more remarkable.... more>>

Meanwhile, Qi Xiaoyu, the starlet in the novel “Sick President Sadistically Loves Me”, is the complete opposite. As a small cannon fodder who had a “warding-off” wedding with the soon-to-be-dying President Xun in order to “wash away” his bad luck and “cure his illness,” this person is s*upid, conceited, arrogant, and proud of his beauty. He gave the president a green hat, coveted the president’s family property, framed the protagonist shou, and was finally sent to an asylum by the sick president, where he was locked up until he turned into an actual lunatic.

When Qi Xiaoyu transmigrated, it was the same night that he was sent to the sick president for the warding-off ceremony……

Qi Xiaoyu judged the situation and was very clear about what he wanted:

Before the protagonist shou appeared, he would obediently clamp his tail tightly between his legs, coax the president into submission, and strive to develop his acting career. After the protagonist shou appeared, he would work hard to match the two of them, retire after success, and divorce the president!

Qi Xiaoyu blinked his big, innocent eyes and smiled, saying, “What the Third Master said is right. Come on, I’ll massage your legs.”

His face is harmless, innocent, and pure.

At the beginning, Third Master Xun casually glanced at Qi Xiaoyu and said, “I have a cleanliness habit. Don’t just push a random person toward me.”

Not long after, Third Master Xun lazily looked at Qi Xiaoyu at his side and said, “This little thing is quite attentive.”

Later, Third Master Xun, whose attitude has completely made a 180-degree turn, couldn’t leave his wife for a day and just wanted to spoil him to heaven. <<less

Pope/Duke/Leader: Did we agree?

Here, the upper class was distinct from the lower class. The hierarchy was strict. Here, food was in short supply, medicine was backward, and city-state disputes continued. The prosperity of the nobility and the depression of the common people flourished together. Here was the romantic capital, but also the wild world.

There were rumors in the Western Continent that the Pope had the favor of God, the Grand Duke had more power than the king, and the leader of the chamber of commerce took over the wealth of the empire. However, Xia Zuoyi, in the name of Lord Rose, promoted the civilization and economic development of the whole Western Continent, unified city-states, and created a powerful industrial empire. He was the glory and the most vivid rose of the empire. Rumor had it that the Pope, the Grand Duke, and the Leader all bowed under his pants, but Lord Rose was dismissive.
