(Not a wish-fulfillment novel + ensemble cast + no female lead + slow burn + slightly dark + a lot of deaths + multiple storylines)
When Zhou Zean saw the world's first golden question mark, he thought he was the chosen one.
Until the torrential rain poured down, a second question mark appeared next to the trash can;
Until the dragon scale fragment was imprinted into his palm, a cold message informed him: Game activated, cannot be exited.
By Sunday, nearly half of the players had quietly died out in the "Endless Night".
He then realized that this was not a game of luck.
This is a survival trial where everything is at stake.
"Su Qi, early stage of Qi Refining!"
The boy in the audience had his head down and his face seemed expressionless, but if you looked down, you would see that his fists were clenched so tightly that his nails seemed to be digging into his flesh, causing a stinging pain...
no.
I can't laugh yet, I have to hold it in.
"Only at the early stage of Qi Refining? The Su family's genius young master is truly a waste!"
"Alas, with his foundation destroyed and his talent reduced to that of an ordinary person, how did a former genius fall to this state?"
Hearing the laughter and gossip around him, Su Qi lowered his head even further to prevent others from seeing his barely concealed expression.
He was neither a fallen genius nor the once prodigious young master of the Su family. He was a substitute for the Su family's genius young master, a substitute who chose to take the place of the Su family's young master to survive a life-threatening ordeal for his sick younger sister.
He had thought he would die in the calamity ten years later, but then the system bound itself to him. As long as he could seize the young master of the Su family's opportunities and even his feelings, he could successfully replace him! Replace him! Even—surpass him!
But Su Qi had absolutely no interest—damn it, the system didn't even give him a newbie gift pack, making him, a guy with mediocre talent, try to seize the opportunity of a genius? Did it think I'd lived too long?
It would be better to just be a stand-in, at least he could live the life of a young master for ten years, and his sister could also get rid of her illness and live on.
only……
Looking at the persistent Miss Su and her demanding fiancée, along with the system's overflowing rewards, Su Qi had a question mark appear above his head:
"Are the people in this world mentally unstable?"
In the vast starry sea where cultivation civilizations intertwine with lost technologies, the old laws have crumbled. Zhou Changming returns from another realm, and with his advanced knowledge and unparalleled perseverance, he establishes an alliance of order from humble beginnings, vowing to carve out a sanctuary for his race in the chaotic universe.
However, maintaining the status quo is harder than starting a business. As the banners of the alliance spread across the south, a wider darkness followed. Cold, alien fleets sailed in from deep space, their cannons aimed at the sparks of order; ancient chaos whispered in the abyss of stars, attempting to devour all civilizations built by living organisms; while the aloof Tianyan Mountain coldly overlooked this nascent territory, its laws as inviolable as heavenly decrees.
Meanwhile, Zhou Yan, grandson of Zhou Changming, a young leader burdened with the path of "Order," gradually awakens amidst the baptism of blood and fire. He enlightens Gu Lei, wielding the power of judgment; he merges all laws, creating the light of "Order·Creation"; he delves into the forbidden "Abyss of Annihilation," exploring the secrets of the universe's origin.
On this ancient battlefield known as the "Wilderness of Ten Thousand Laws," the Alliance of Order is like a lone boat, facing raging waves from all directions. The clash between technology and supernatural powers, the duel between order and chaos, the choice between protection and destruction... an epic war concerning the survival of civilization has quietly begun.
He, born with a destiny of privilege, transmigrated to a magical world and became a witch. But because of magic, the pure-blooded nobility had completely completed their privileged cycle from birth to death. Magic, like industry, should benefit the world; the world shouldn't be like this. Someone once said that some people want to live well themselves, while others want everyone to live as well as they do. This world may not care about one more witch, one more noble. But ordinary people care; they need someone to tell the world that mortals also have power! The steam engine! The revolution in transportation! The industrial revolution! The fusion of magic and industry! Muskets! Heavy artillery! Tanks! Fleets! History always advances on the edge of a sword, and dignity always reigns supreme! The clash of systems! The clash of muskets and magic! The clash of heavy artillery and mages! Steel eagles vie with dragons in the sky, tiger kings wrestle with behemoths on land. Science brings civilization, fleets grant power, nuclear peace is the truth! I bestow upon you war! To end war with war! If there must be a king, then why can't it be me? That's what Mitis said.
A young boy from the frontier, suffering from a serious illness, had no choice but to be adopted to survive. However, fate played a cruel trick on him, and by chance, he was admitted to a cultivation sect, starting as an outer disciple and working as a charcoal burner...
Su Ye is reborn back to 2004, just like back then, he witnesses his father being imprisoned and burdened with millions in debt. At the age of 18, he resolutely takes over the business, intending to make a brilliant comeback for himself in this life!
Wang Yan unexpectedly transmigrates to a tribal era about ten thousand years ago, in a fictional world. Upon waking, he is plagued by hunger. Watch as he solves various problems, including food shortages, adapts to his new life, and leads his tribe to rise and become stronger. (No magic, no cultivation, no system, no cheat codes. There is war, strategy, and invention.)

Su Su (hands on hips): "I am the strongest matchmaker on earth!"
"Oops~ It seems I've tied the wrong red thread? Ah~! I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry!"
Tang San pushed away Dai Laohu, who was blushing shyly in his arms, his eyes sharp.
"You have already chosen your own path to death!"
Su Su (instantly cowering): "Ah~ the other side is so strong, Jiu Xuan brother, save me!"

"Su Su, you bastard, using red thread to knit a sweater is one thing, but what's the meaning of using it to walk a dog?"
"Susu, what's wrong with those geese? Why are they looking at me like that?"
"Su Su, why is that old poisoner always loitering outside the door all day long?"
"Also, what's the deal with that Snake Woman and Tang San?"
