(Science fiction + space opera + civilization war, hardcore battlefield and philosophical questioning intertwined)

Warships roared, all races trembled, and humanity rose to prominence.

From the solar system to the core of the universe, from the brink of extinction to the throne of supremacy.

This is an epic of bloodshed, a hymn to rebellion, and the most insane gamble of civilization.

Conquer the stars or become dust in the universe.

The ancient, decaying gods chanted blasphemous words, denouncing the deception from the stars, for the world could not be born of fire. A distant, silent meteor brought a message from the depths of space: in an eternal twilight, a miraculous structure was built for the survival of the race. When a soul awoke from the empty shell, Norn Mosria opened his eyes. On the campus of Miskatonic University, an innocent apprentice approached Norn Mosria. She asked him, “Professor Norn, may I ask, in the ‘Fables of the Stars’ I borrowed from the Stargazing Institute, I read that the decaying gods would bring an apocalypse called twilight. Is this true?” “It is true.” “Then, will we also witness the twilight of the apocalypse during our internship tomorrow?” (The school name is purely for homage; all settings are subject to change...)

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."

Su Chen, a white-collar worker, dies suddenly and transmigrates.

He became the most impoverished Black Iron Lord in this other world.

[Level 6 Blazing Dragon Fruit]: Swallowing it allows one to unleash dragon breath, capable of burning mountains and boiling seas!

All Su Chen wanted to do was farm and raise animal-eared girls.

When they started their early retirement, they found that the things they grew seemed a little off.

The injured wolf princess, the shrewd fox tycoon,

Adorable cat-girl, sleeping dragon queen...

They all stayed on his farm.

Years later, when the Abyss God led his army down, the world was plunged into despair.

Su Chen yawned and got up from the recliner: "Ugh, this is so annoying, it's disturbing my nap."

The next second, he casually tossed out a [Level 9 World Tree Fruit].

A dazzling light enveloped the continent, and the demon army was instantly annihilated.

The whole world: "??? You call this... farming?!"

Execution in thirty days? No, that's the countdown for the nobles.

Geneticist Mo Chen was thrown into the Black Gate Prison, where he activated the [Gene Domination System] on his very first day.

Devouring, stitching together, evolving—every second is pushing the boundaries of what constitutes "humanity."

He first upgraded the prison boss to a "human centipede king," and then transformed the entire prison into a private breeding shed.

The family that framed him in the past has begun receiving "live deliveries":

The eldest son is missing, the collateral branches are fragmented like a jigsaw puzzle, and the ancestor's coffin has been gnawed down to just the genetic code.

The Imperial Inquisition deployed a massive force of steel, but before they could even touch the enemy's DNA, they were swallowed up by a tsunami of flesh and blood and turned into "battle-damaged specimens."

The nobleman's private chamber was dimly lit, and he was still mocking the "cage rat."

The next second, the third young master, with a human face and a rat's body, climbed onto the long table and smiled sweetly:

"Dad, I'm here to inherit the estate."

—Don't blink, the zombie brother just recognized his relatives, and you're next.

(In the abyss of darkness, no fallen leaf is innocent; humanity is twisted into beasts tearing each other apart. Kindness has long since become relics on the altar, while only evil thrives in the cycle—not because they reject the light, but because the first believers of the light have already turned to dust.

It is said that directors with academic backgrounds are good at training actors, and Cao Yang is no exception.

Director Cao has a special ability: he can motivate actors' emotions and guide them to better immerse themselves in their roles, making it easier for them to intuitively feel the joys and sorrows of the characters in the play—a young actress who had been ridiculed for her poor acting skills for a long time said excitedly in an interview after winning the Best Actress award.

"I don't care much about an actor's acting skills when I'm filming. As long as their appearance matches the character's setting, I can find a way to let them bring out the essence of the character," Cao Yang said during a speech at the Beijing Film Academy auditorium.

After his rebirth, Cao Yang possessed an ability that allowed actors to immerse themselves in a role. Even if an actor had no acting skills, experiencing the joys and sorrows of a character in a play would at least improve their performance.

What, still can't get into character? Then try getting into character again, so you can quickly immerse yourself in the role and make the audience exclaim that your character doesn't even look like an actor.

Young actresses, you're in luck! Cao Yang's arrival has boosted your acting skills.
