Male Lead: Seo Muheun... more>>

A man born with the “Name,” a power only 1% of the population possesses. Born to place everything beneath his feet.

He resides on the top floor of the prestigious Raphael Tower in District 1, a space reserved for only the highest ruling class—every citizen’s dream.

Plagued by chronic insomnia, he’s irritable and impossibly sensitive.

Maybe it’s because of that cursed Name engraved on the inside of his thigh.

Eventually, in search of a mysterious tea that’s the only thing able to soothe him, Seo Muheun personally heads to District 4.

Female Lead: Eunsa

A cursed mutant living in District 4.

She quietly lives alone in a small cottage, picking herbs and making tea to sell.

She’s been alone since birth, persecuted for her unusual appearance, yet she has never hated herself—and has endured with quiet strength.

One day, a mysterious young master from District 1 begins pulling her into a world she’s never known.

The holographic game “Crimson Earth,” blending cyberpunk with Cthulhu elements, was about to be released.... more>>

Kui Xin’s luck seemed to have taken a turn for the better when she was selected as a closed beta tester for “Crimson Earth.”

However, events spiraled rapidly into the bizarre. She realized that instead of playing a mere holographic game, she had actually been transported to a parallel world that truly exists.

People struggled to survive amidst forests of steel and iron, while authorities raised their glasses in shared revelry under the glow of neon lights.

Consortiums controlled the economic lifelines, while super-intelligent AI monitored every individual’s actions closely.

Extraordinary beings, cyborgs, secret cults, and distortions in humans took center stage in this era…

Upon logging into the game, Kui Xin had an ominous feeling that something significant was about to unfold.

Question: What should you do if you discover your character in the game is a top-priority fugitive from the Federation, currently working undercover within the official Investigation Department?

Answer: The most dangerous place can also be the safest. Act out a scenario where you’re chasing yourself, then seize an opportunity to fake your death and escape.

---------------

Name: Kui Xin

Identity: An undercover agent sent by a rebel organization to infiltrate the Federation's Investigation Department.

Objective: Survive and strive to level up.

After reading the objective, Kui Xin felt it was insufficient.

Being a double-crosser seemed like a dead-end role; merely surviving and focusing on leveling up wasn't thrilling enough for her. She wanted to pull off something grand.

For instance, taking out the boss and usurping their position sounded quite satisfying.

“Until the day humanity falls.”... more>>

In the year 2020, Earth’s magnetic poles disappeared and humankind was nearly wiped out by cosmic radiation. Within the span of a hundred years, living creatures began to mutate and devour each other while the remaining humans, numbering in the tens of thousands, struggled bitterly in their man-made bases.

In the Abyss, home to the mutated xenogenics, there lived a sentient little mushroom. Because it had been nourished by the blood and flesh of the deceased human An Ze, not only did it take on a similar-looking human form, but a similar name as well: An Zhe.

An Zhe is determined to go to the human base to search for his spore, which had been harvested by humans. Once there, however, he faces the omnipresent risk of discovery and certain death as he tries to keep his non-human nature hidden from the Judges, whose responsibility is to inspect for and eliminate xenogenics like himself. And of all the Judges, Colonel Lu Feng is the most perceptive and merciless—as soon as he determines that someone is a xenogenic, he will execute that person on the spot.

But An Zhe’s mutation goes undetected by Lu Feng’s eyes, and so a tale of humans and xenogenics unfolds…

As a despised assault-type guide, Lin Yuan has a fiancé matched to her by the state. Her fiancé is from a prestigious family, handsome, wealthy, and impeccably mannered, making her the envy of many.... more>>

Why would such an excellent partner be assigned to her? She doesn’t even meet the standards for tea ceremony, and her cooking skills only earned a “B” grade.

“He’ll get tired of her eventually.”

“That’s right, they’re doomed to fail.”

After hearing these kinds of remarks so often, Lin Yuan also came to believe that she and Jiang Yangshuo were destined to break up. So, when her fiancé appeared before her with a gentle and lovely young woman, she didn’t hesitate to take off her engagement ring and toss it down the drain in front of them both.

From then on, Lin Yuan enjoyed a life of freedom, where the sky was the limit, and the sea was vast enough for her to roam as she pleased.

Who knew that after a few years of living unrestrained, her ex-fiancé would corner her at a royal banquet, his eyes red-rimmed, and declare that he had been regretting his decision all these years, that he was consumed with longing for her.

No, no, no, thank you, please don’t. Lin Yuan, who had become accustomed to her wild ways, had not a single desire to return to her previous life.

Her ex-fiancé’s face turned livid as he gritted his teeth, “I don’t mind your type, and I can try my best to tolerate your shortcomings. You won’t find a sentinel who indulges you more than I do.”

“Well, you see, I already have a new sentinel.” To completely shake off his entanglement, Lin Yuan casually threw out a name as a shield. She quickly reviewed the images of the sentinels she had met on the battlefield, choosing the name of a brother with whom she had shared life-and-death experiences. She figured the man wouldn’t mind.

“He just happens to be a receptive type, a perfect match for me, and he likes me a lot. He doesn’t care about any of my flaws.”

Just after sending off her devastated ex-fiancé, Lin Yuan turned around and bumped into the very man she had just name-dropped.

That man, who had killed countless enemies on the battlefield and had achieved remarkable merit, had a slightly flushed, handsome face. He turned his head and said softly, “You…when did you know I liked you?”

A War Without Casualties.... more>>

The Republic of San Magnolia has long been under attack from the neighbouring Giadian Empire’s army of unmanned drones known as the Legion. After years of painstaking research, the Republic finally developed autonomous drones of their own, turning the one-sided struggle into a war without casualties-or at least, that’s what the government claims.

In truth, there is no such thing as a bloodless war. Beyond the fortified walls protecting the eighty-five Republic territories lies the “nonexistent” Eighty-Sixth Sector. The young men and women of this forsaken land are branded the Eighty-Six and, stripped of their humanity, pilot the “unmanned” weapons into battle…

Shin is the leader of a squadron of eighty-sixers. Lena is a “handler” who commands the detachment from the remote rear with the help of special communication technology.

The farewell story of the severe and sad struggle of these two begins! <<less

First World:... more>>

In a future world where biological mutations occur, Yu Yan transmigrates as a researcher in a biological laboratory.

His research subject is a genetically mutated experimental subject, carrying various dangerous viruses, yet considered the villain of this world.

Originally in the plot, he was a psychologically deranged and malicious cannon fodder, constantly tormenting this experimental subject, so when the latter escaped, it casually disposed of him.

Yu Yan, a lazy corporate drone, always ready to slack off.

Second World:

Yu Shi, true to his name, is an honest person who enjoys handicrafts and housework the most.

Transmigrating into a strange world to work as a caregiver for a patient in a large family? Truly a perfect match for his professional skills!

Although this patient is strange, capable of spinning cocoons and transforming into butterflies, the working environment is excellent and the benefits are abundant, leaving Yu Shi very satisfied.

As for villain, what concern are they to this simple and industrious worker?

Third World:

Yu Le transmigrates into a world of immortal cultivation as a minor cannon fodder, but with a twisted sense of amusement, he immediately sets his sights on the villain.

The villain, who in the future will kill his master and betray his friends, has now become a devoted senior brother in the sect, practicing Pure-Heart technique, and secretly admiring his junior sister.

Yu Le exposes his pure demon body, revealing his demonic bloodline ahead of time, and with a mischievous smile at his collapsing face, says, “Your crazed appearance looks really good, I like it.”

Fourth World:

Yu Mo opens his eyes to find himself dressed in women’s clothing, participating in a ritual dedicated to the Moon Goddess.

In this world, worshipping the Moon Goddess is considered heretical, and if discovered by mainstream followers of the Light, he could be killed.

But Yu Mo remains unfazed because the Moon Goddess’s proxy has already infiltrated the Light Church and risen to a high position.

This successful spy villain is regarded by the ladies of the imperial capital as a mature, stable, gentle, and considerate gentleman.

Yet Yu Mo’s assessment of him is: “A love-struck fool.”

Fifth World:

Yu Guang, as the eldest brother, is a responsible beacon of righteousness.

He grabs hold of that dark, malicious, insecure, and utterly hopeless natural-born bad guy, laughing heartily and saying,

“There’s no difficulty we can’t overcome. Come on, roll up your sleeves, and run with me to bask in the sun!”

…

System: So you’re all just going to do whatever you want, regardless of whether I live or die?

Kim Dokja does not consider himself the protagonist of his own life. Befitting the name his parents gave him, he is a solitary person whose sole hobby is reading web novels. For over a decade, he has lived vicariously through Yu Junghyeok, the main character of the web novel Three Ways to Survive the Apocalypse (TWSA). ... more>>

Through Junghyeok, Dokja has experienced secondhand the trials of repeatedly regressing in time, in search of an end to life-threatening “scenarios” that force people to act out narratives for the amusement of god-like “Constellations.”

After reading 3,149 chapters—long after all other readers lost interest—Dokja finally resigns himself to the story ending. However, he receives an enigmatic message from the author, stating that the story will soon be monetized, before his surroundings suddenly go dark.

He swiftly realizes that fiction has become reality and he is now living through TWSA. Although he is the singular omniscient reader of the events yet to come, his success in the scenarios is not guaranteed—but perhaps his advantage will empower him to step into the protagonist role that never suited him before. <<less

Wherever she goes, zombies of all kinds cower in fear.... more>>

After wandering alone for several days, Song Ke encounters a troublesome man. The man has a broken leg, and speaks weakly as if on the verge of death, yet there’s a smile at the corner of his mouth that is strangely beguiling.

“Little girl, I have nothing to offer you in return. How about offering myself to you?”

Suspiciously eyeing him for a couple of seconds, Song Ke slowly summons her spiritual tool.

“Speak up, how do you want to… die?”

One thing leads to another, and her adventurous path… takes a peculiar turn? She ends up gathering a series of strange teammates.

A year after the apocalypse, a bizarre rumor circulates among the major surviving bases:

It’s said that the top-ranked awakener team “V587” on the scoreboard are all burly and sturdy, capable of frightening children with their bear-like physiques and iron-like strength.

Their name alone exudes power: V587, how commanding and domineering!

V587 punches the Zombie King, kicks mutant beasts, robs the Death Prison of Sin City, and KOs the tyrannical rulers of District C with one move!

No matter how difficult the mission, it’s flawlessly cleared when it falls into their hands.

Their feats become the talk of the Alliance, earning admiration from countless ability users.

Until the grand opening of the inaugural global awakeners challenge, the enigmatic V587 members gather, making their first appearance.

The crowd’s faces turn dumbfounded, “Wait, who are these elderly, young, sick, and two wheelchair-bound cripples? V587? Nooo!”
