Are you willing to become a warrior who hates evil and punishes the wicked, vowing to protect the weak, ruthlessly slaying the corrupt and evil without regard for means or cost, and treating all disputes with fairness?

Malone stared intently at the string of text displayed on the system panel, stroking his chin, his brows sometimes relaxing, sometimes furrowing...

If there is no difference, then make your solemn vow.

"There's only one question: do I... know how to miss?"

[bounty hunter] [blood magic] [mythical equipment] [dnd wasteland world setting] [demon hunter-style adventure]

Unconventional Synopsis: A bankruptcy decree from the capital, a team of lame old horses and a beat-up cart, plus pockets full of counterfeit gold coins—that's all the legendary merchant Lynn possessed! "I should have become the richest man on this continent by trading fake elven medicine and counterfeit dwarven armor!" Serious Synopsis: Trading souls, nurturing curses, analyzing calamities, and mending divinity. Ascending to the pinnacle of demonic power through the path of commerce! Lynn hastily descended upon this world, embarking on the path of commerce. Curses, souls, laws, calamities, divinity—everything will become merchandise on Lynn's shelves. Countless years later, in this world where magic and truth, duty and destiny intertwine, Lynn has become the strongest. When the path of commerce reaches its zenith, Lynn's name as a demonic god has been sung in every corner of the dimensions along with epic tales. When...

When a modern soul accidentally falls into a medieval-style magical fantasy world, what the protagonist sees is not entirely romantic—there is the dazzling light of magic and the honorary oaths upheld by knights, but it lacks the nourishment of diverse cultures: entertainment is the same old tunes repeated by bards, aesthetics are trapped in the rigid framework of the Middle Ages, and information is spread through the inefficient path of word of mouth.

To break free from this monotony and gain a foothold in this other world, the protagonist awakens memories of Earth's civilization, thus beginning a "cultural export" that transcends time and space. He uses words as a blade to dissect the spiritual wasteland of this other world; he uses passion as a torch to ignite people's desire for new things.

The story is filled with both the emotional resonance of literary works, allowing the inhabitants of this other world to glimpse different lives and thoughts for the first time, and the unexpected warmth of everyday life—a cup of hot wine offered by a stranger knight, a piece of bread reserved for him by a small merchant. Set against a backdrop of a retro era, the protagonist not only spreads culture but also explores himself—finding his value in creation and sharing, undergoing a transformative growth amidst the unknown and challenges, and ultimately adding a unique touch of brilliance to the world of swords and magic with the cultural spark of Earth.

Awakening from a coma, he finds himself no longer "human." This is a body stitched together, a defective product of a failed experiment. He was experimental material who "should have died." Yet he did not die. From experimental subject to wizard apprentice. From a Frankenstein's monster to a seeker of mystery. In this world ruled by wizards, where truth is the blade, every wizard pursues knowledge, deciphers the rules, and their ultimate goal is singular: to become an immortal being, to become the omniscient and omnipotent "Lord of Truth."

Tang Ran was hit hard as soon as she was bound to the simulator.

He was framed by his teacher and classmates.

Their sole purpose was to prevent him from taking the college entrance examination, and they even went so far as to kill him repeatedly in mock exams.

Tang Ran was stunned, because with his grades, even if no one stopped him, he could only get into a junior college at most.

The other party was willing to kill someone just to stop him from going to junior college? What kind of junior college is so valuable?

Does passing the exam mean you get a cash bonus, a car, a wife, a government job, and a company worth hundreds of billions as a reward?

Tang Ran didn't understand and felt that something was very wrong.

I decided to play the mock exam until the day of the actual college entrance exam to see what would happen.

On the day of the college entrance examination, something strange happened. He encountered a clash between red and white evil spirits and died a terrible death.

It was only then that Tang Ran realized that on the day of the college entrance examination, all candidates around the world would awaken the ability to fight against the supernatural, and he was supposed to awaken the same extremely powerful ability on that day.

The reason why the teachers and classmates frantically framed and tried to stop him was because someone had been reborn and they didn't want him to awaken.

In a fit of rage, Tang Ran directly created a Book of Life and Death!

Rebirth, huh? Framing, huh? Murder, huh? Preventing the college entrance exam from awakening, huh?

Come on, look at my Book of Life and Death and speak! You think you can just talk? Keep talking, keep talking!

In 1408, the Timurid Khanate had fallen from its heyday, the Ottoman Empire was on the brink, the Byzantines had remained resilient for a century, and the Mamluks were trembling with fear as they recovered their lost territory. Peace seemed to have returned to the world, temporarily. However, this world was somewhat different from what Li Rufeng remembered—generals with horns, emirs with tails, sages with clairvoyance, and slaves who rotted but remained immortal... Having traveled to the Timurid Khanate, Li Rufeng was grateful for a cheat code for Mount & Blade II, allowing him to steadily advance as a shaman in a small steppe tribe, awaiting the right opportunity to "mount and blade" across this vast Central Asian landscape. [Note: The following appears to be unrelated and likely a separate topic.] Dear readers, I offer you a sincere chapter. Starting a new book is undoubtedly the happiest time, because it's time to dig new holes. This project is a foray into a new genre. My first book was a book-starved adventure, a mishmash of The Witcher set in the Warhammer 40k universe. The second, influenced by Cyberpunk 2077 and The Boys, aims to be a Punisher-esque story. If you're interested, check out the author's other works, "The Witcher of Games" and "I Give the World Destruction and Rebirth," on QD. This third book, "On a Young Dream," is inspired by a fictional scenario about the Roman Golden Horde posted on Bilibili. The early scenes will be set in the chaotic Timurid Empire following the death of Tamerlane the Great. Writing this story has been a self-learning exercise. Through this alternate history, I've been actively exploring the historical transformations of the Arabian Peninsula, Transoxiana, and even Central Asia from 1410 to 1500, filling in gaps in my knowledge. As for the introduction of the Faith of the Four Winds, it's purely a matter of personal interest. Some Warhammer experts have suggested that the Four Winds' name suggests a Warhammer origin, likely referring to a 40k short story describing the sudden rise of Chaos faith in a savage world. After all, introducing a completely new faith into a land already riven by religious conflict couldn't be worse, could it? Moreover, this faith carries with it truly transcendent power. How would those zealots who fought for Constantinople for centuries react? Creating a captivating, or at least intriguing, world through my keyboard is a deeply rewarding experience, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. P.S.: Finally, due to my own limitations and lack of accurate documentation, if anyone finds any historical errors in this article, please point them out and I'll promptly correct them. P.S.: The historical Turkification of the Timurid Khanate was very thorough, so the tribes I described earlier that still believed in the primitive belief of Eternal Sky probably don't exist. However, for the convenience of the subsequent plot development, I will assume that the Islamization of the Chagatai Khanate was not that serious, and that a large number of Mongol people in the Eastern Chagatai Khanate still retained respect for this primitive belief. P.S.: New books are not easy to write. If you are interested, please cast your valuable votes and feel free to leave a comment in the comment section.

[Dungeons & Dragons x Elden Circle, Souls of All Souls, Sword & Magic, Fantastic Adventure] Riggs is a hardcore Souls gamer. For several years, he's spent all his free time playing the new Souls game, Elden Circle. Until one day, he was transported to another world. But it wasn't the longed-for Nimgfu, but a completely unfamiliar city: Baldur's Gate. The good news: he'd awakened the [Circle System]. The bad news: he only had the Circle System, not a true Faded. This meant he didn't have immortality. But that wasn't important. What mattered was that the [Circle System] had given him access to a completely different power system from this world. While others, limited by their professions, could only develop in one direction, multitasking and making trade-offs, he, relying on his own skill build, became a master of everything...
