The gods perished, calamities befell humanity, the world was reduced to wasteland, and mankind could only eke out a living underground.

Technology and psychics have become the only means for human survival, and those without power can only become the most destitute and useless people at the bottom of society.

In order to survive, Li Yan, born into a castrated family, chose to modify his physical body and become a Blood Armor Warrior...

While both are lords of the same name, Lin Yu's luck seems a bit too good. His cheat ability draws only "forbidden races" that are said to have destroyed the world, and they are all women and all "villains".

The game starts with the [Fallen Angel Reincarnation Pool], which yields only yandere, bloodthirsty older sister characters; followed by the [Pain Witch], [Deep Sea Siren], and [Fallen Angel]. These units are beautiful and powerful, but their personalities are twisted, filled with destructive desires, and extremely difficult to control.

Lin Yu must constantly feign absolute strength and ruthlessness to suppress his "yandere" subordinates. To outsiders, Lin Yu is the great demon king who rules the demon cave, a traitor to humanity. But Lin Yu doesn't care; he only wants to survive.

He discovered that while these "evil female" soldiers were dangerous, they were the sharpest blades if you could conquer them. While the so-called righteous factions (angels and paladins) still valued chivalry, Lin Yu's evil female legion had already won the war by using poison, ambushes, and mind control—leaving no stone unturned.

Time travel is a risky thing. Some people travel to become wealthy merchants on giant ships, some become powerful prime ministers, some become strategists riding white horses, and some become monsters, opening their eyes to find a hairy-faced, thunder-mouthed monk asking for a master. Then they travel to another world. The second time around is still very dangerous. Ghosts appear in the shadows, monsters roam under the night sky, gods are nowhere to be seen, only strange creatures dwell on the throne. "Ah... how scary."

[Survival] [Shelter] [Cthulhu]

The entire population is transported to another world, and Su Yi, as a survivor, is forced to join a survival game.

The eerie dark forest hides countless dangers and opportunities, and the only refuge is the wooden house behind you.

Su Yi, relying on his talent that allows him to freely switch attributes, focused all his attributes on luck when choosing the shelter upgrade system, and unexpectedly drew the Mythical quality Nameless House.

With the selection of the upgrade system.

A whispering hut filled with chaotic murmurs.

The Blasphemous Workshop, capable of performing forbidden modifications on objects.

An unnamed altar dedicated to an unknown deity.

...

As Su Yi watched the bizarre buildings, beyond his comprehension, rise from the ground, he unconsciously swallowed hard.

He always felt that his sanctuary was developing in some strange direction.

It is now the year 147 of the Cretaceous calendar, and a perfect hero has appeared in our world.

Reborn as a lizard, Chu Lin immediately faces the greatest crisis of his lizard life. His system arrives and he's immediately hunted. How will he deal with the hunters' attacks? He uses a giant python as a belt, the Yamata no Orochi as seafood, devours divine beasts like Garuda, wrestles with earth bears, battles iron-eating behemoths, finds even the mortal python insignificant, and is no match for the Norse sea monster. Through muscular evolution, he conquers with sheer power, earning the title of the Muscular Lizard Emperor, the Undying Dragon King! This is a beast-themed story, not about human transformation, with no female lead. It's a muscular evolution story where strength breaks all laws, spiritual energy revives, the beast race's stance is firm, and his cheat code is a muscular system that provides a multiplier effect to physical training. He develops a muscular physique, evolves back to his ancestral form, and becomes the strongest muscular creature!

Not a fantasy/mystery fanfiction... purely an urban entertainment story... Mystery/mystery cheat + rebirth in the Chinese entertainment industry (no magic urban world). In his previous life, he transmigrated to the world of mystery/mystery, endured countless hardships to become a Sequence 5 Dream Walker, but died unexpectedly due to his recklessness. He was reborn in a parallel universe in 2010 at the Beijing Film Academy's Directing Department, starting as a Sequence 9 audience member and retracing his divine path. When the power of mystery/mystery appears in a magic-free entertainment industry, it's an absolute dimensional reduction attack! Extraordinary observation skills, mental acuity, mind reading, psychological suggestion... step by step, he erodes the collective subconscious of 7 billion people worldwide, building a fantastical cultural empire (Chaotic Sea) through movies, music, games, news, and the internet, becoming the sole source of spiritual nourishment for humanity. Ultimately, he ascends to the level of a visionary, becoming the only god on Earth! (Advancement does not require magic potions; conditions have been modified.)

[Entire cast + invincible + no female lead + organization creation + ideological indoctrination + exploiting players and bizarre exploitation]

"When you encounter a mysterious being clad in a black robe in the eerie game, remember not to panic. Be sure to treat him with the utmost sincerity and flattery. He is like a wish-granting machine; as long as you have enough eerie coins, nothing is impossible!"

—"Must-Read! How to Survive in a Bizarre Game"

"Based on our investigation, we have come to a terrifying conclusion: He is hijacking the Strange Game! So far, all instances of the Strange Game have shown signs of His involvement, whether it's vending machines, wishing wells, or anything else... Now, all we can do is submit."

—Report on the Investigation into the "Mystery Merchant"

"What? You're saying He might be harming us?! Get lost! If it weren't for the items that sir sold us, we'd all be dead by now!"

Su Cheng originally just wanted to play a game to pass the time, but he didn't expect that after completing the game, he would get the opportunity to become a "mysterious merchant" in the bizarre game.

The Mysterious Merchant

Elegance is the essence of mystery. As the most enigmatic person, how could you allow attacks from others to harm you? As long as the attacker feels fear, uncertainty, or respect for you, you will disregard any attack they may launch.

[Beautiful Ghost Coins are what you pursue; you can rely on absorbing Ghost Coins to increase your strength without limit.]

Looking at his countless entries, aliases, and organizations, Su Cheng smiled slightly:

"Welcome to the eerie game... This is my eerie game!"

(Lord of Mysteries fanfiction, no female lead, wrong path) "If you only had one day left to live, what would you do?" When the transmigrator opened his eyes and found a monocle embedded in his right eye, he realized something was wrong with this transmigration. He had become an Extraordinary through an "wrong" path, a Sequence Seven "Deciphering Scholar." But what did it mean that there was a countdown made of gray mist on his wrist? The moment the countdown reached zero, Nimrod suddenly understood what this countdown represented. Good news: The gray mist wool he obtained from the transmigration allowed him to exploit a bug to travel back and forth between Tingen in 1349 and Kordu in 1358. Bad news: Kordu. Now he had to tear up Ince Zangwill's script in 1349, scheme against Amon, and become a godfather of the occult garbage dump with the Celestial in 1358, searching for hope for survival in a hopeless future. Faced with the God of Deception in front and the devastating natural disaster behind, Nimrod's answer was: "...Hehe, I must survive!"...In the year 1368, at the end of July, Mr. "Mistake" announced: "Hello, fellow diviners. What I'm going to do next is change the Spirit Insect into a pink cat head."

New York City interrogation room. In the dim light, the interrogator scoffed at the absurd transcript before him: "Huh? You say you've exorcised demons, captured witches, and saved the world?" "Yes," Locke Galahad replied calmly. "Is there a problem?" "Then how come I've never seen any of these monsters you're talking about, not even once in my life?" The interrogator's face betrayed a mocking expression. "Since you haven't seen them, why don't you say thank you?" The interrogator's smile faltered: "???" Current setting: Underworld. Future titles: Wrong Turn, Silent Hill, Scream, Dead Silence, Resident Evil, Otherworldly Realms, etc... PS: Minor Cthulhu and Warhammer universe settings.
