As the Hun's horses' hooves shattered the ice of the Rhine, the 16-year-old Roman farmer Marcus knew only two things: run, and revenge.

On the day his village burned to the ground, his parents' blood soaked his sandals, his sister's cries were swallowed by the barbarians' wild laughter. From a slave in the army to a blood-soaked centurion, he grasped the old centurion's sword and tore his way through the corrupt legions: officers fed the barbarians with rations, the emperor watched the flames of Rome drunkenly, and even the swords of Gothic mercenaries were sharper than Roman standards.

When the Vandals sacked the Eternal City, he dragged his dying sister out of the pile of corpses, but his only response was "Don't let Rome rot completely."

In 476, the last Western Roman emperor stepped down from the throne. Marcus stood among the broken pillars, the rust on his sword redder than the setting sun. The empire was dead, but the smoke from cooking stoves crushed by iron hooves, the sighs of dying veterans, the faded word "Rome" on the pages of books—he wanted to let them breathe a little longer in the setting sun.

This is not an epic about saving the world, but a story about a small person who uses his life to protect a spark of light in an era of collapse.

In 1852, in the sky above the battlefield of Lingyidu, there was a thunderstorm, and an "angel" rode a bicycle, wearing a yellow coat and a yellow hat, riding a purple thunder, descending from the sky, and shouting: The Qing Dynasty is over!

In the final years of the Later Zhao dynasty, various warlords vied for supremacy, and the northern lands underwent an inevitable reshuffling. A new dynasty called "Qin" rose up in the fertile plains of the Qin region.

Gao Qingqiu was originally an ordinary delivery man. In an accident, he traveled to the Republic of China and was selected by a mysterious system. From then on, he gained an additional supernatural power: the ability to predict people's fortune and misfortune.

With this skill, he earned countless gold and silver dollars. If he wanted, he could buy half of the Republic of China!

Celebrities from all walks of life in Lianyunjian City were all polite to him.

His marriage fortune is also very good...

But an occasional mistake on his part caused everything to go up in smoke.

Let’s see how he uses his special powers to “build tall buildings and entertain guests” again and return to the peak of his life!

I, Gisela Louise Marie, daughter of Emperor Joseph and Empress Elizabeth, a noble princess of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and heir to the Habsburg-Lorraine dynasty. The world says our Habsburgs are doomed, but I only say: Impossible, absolutely impossible! This world has magic, science, and agriculture—how could we possibly be finished?! The ministers: Yes, yes, yes! Let others go to war; you, blessed Austria, go get married! What Mars, the god of war, gives to others, Venus, the goddess of love, will bestow upon you. A magical, anthropomorphized history—Germany and Austria cannot unite, but that doesn't mean they can't be unified!

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, disasters continued throughout the country, famines occurred greatly, and people ate each other.

Yun Yi accidentally broke into this era.

Fortunately, he has all the characteristics of Steve in my world, and can bring the rules of the MC world into the real world.

Food shortage? MC crops only mature every few days!

Thousands of miles of barren land? Infinite water supply!

Plague breaks out? Don’t worry, milk can cure all diseases!

No place to live? Watch me build a city with my bare hands in one day!

The world is in chaos, with warlords dividing the country?

Have you asked the army behind me wearing enchanted armor?

Hey, why is everyone calling me a god?

But I am just an ordinary cube man!

Feng Xi transmigrated into the foolish fiancée of the protagonist of the imperial examination, and became an NPC on his road to becoming a god.

According to the plot of the original book, the male protagonist who was wandering in the countryside was found by his family. The first thing he did to restore his identity as a son of a noble family was to send someone to erase her stain.

After that, the hero displayed his talents all the way, passed the imperial examination, was promoted to a higher position, and successfully captured the hearts of many noble ladies.

------

Feng Xi, who finally realized he was in a book, now had only two choices: one was to quickly curry favor with him while he still hadn't recovered his identity, and the other was to continue eating and drinking and wait to be quietly killed.

How to choose?

------

Question: What is the most powerful counterattack against a heartless person?

The eldest sister replied: Marry someone who is more talented than him

The second sister replied: Marry someone who is more handsome than him

Feng Ximo... no, he stole his job.

From then on, the first female scholar, female juren, female top scorer...all rose rapidly in the officialdom!
