   Single female lead, no harem! A post-apocalyptic story about protecting human civilization, a high-fashion urban fantasy story with daily updates of 10,000 words. The road is a bit dark because the sun is still on its way, and many people need to walk with it. The girlfriend is mysterious and supreme, but not a protector, and doesn't offer much help to the male lead. The romance develops slowly but isn't a typical romance novel. No system, no mindless plot. The story revolves around Zhang Yun, with awakening of the Sequence Life Mark. The male lead is currently blinded by the backlash of his Anomalous Eyes, but his spiritual life mark allows him to perceive the scenes before him. He currently has six Life Mark sequences and will soon enter the Kunlun Mysterious Ruins (the Twelve Ancestral Witches, the snowstorm of the Kunlun Mountains). Everyone else has emerged except the protagonist. More sequences will be added later. The setting is post-apocalyptic, with a crimson and eerie attack. There's an infinite flow game element. Single female lead, the girlfriend is a supreme being. It's quite exciting, right? Later, it's discovered that the world isn't as simple as the apocalypse... "What you just saw was real-time footage from half an hour ago across the entire country." "From this day forward, the Fate Rune Alliance and the national government officially reveal the truth of this world to all citizens. The bizarre invasion has progressed from initial sporadic rifts to its current small-scale outbreak, and in the near future, it may erupt on a massive scale. This is something that cannot be hidden, and it is something every citizen of Cang Kingdom has an obligation to know." "This is not the end of the world. We still have hope. Over countless years, countless Fate Rune Masters, countless soldiers, countless guardians have died on the defensive lines, exchanging their lives and blood for a brief period of peace. But now, the rifts are expanding exponentially, the power of the bizarre is growing stronger, and the defensive lines are crumbling. We have nowhere left to retreat." She raised her eyes, her gaze sweeping over every trial participant, her voice filled with both sorrow and expectation: "Every one of you is a seed of the future, the hope for humanity's future. Every tactic you learn in this trial today, every bit of power you master, will be used against the bizarre, used to protect the land and your compatriots behind you." "Human destiny has never been in the hands of any god, but in the hands of each and every one of us. I hope you remember that from the moment you awakened your destiny runes, you shouldered the responsibility of protecting the flame of civilization." The tower remained silent after the words fell, yet a burning emotion quietly spread through everyone's hearts. But no one expected that an even heavier blow was yet to come. The silence deepened, his voice even lower than before, carrying an undisguised grief that struck everyone's hearts like a heavy hammer. "There is one last piece of news." "Lu Xun, the founder of the Destiny Rune Alliance and the commander-in-chief of the Cang Kingdom's bizarre defense line, was killed at 3:17 AM today while forcibly breaking the blockade of bizarre information on the Cang Kingdom's people by the power of the rules in order to facilitate the dissemination of the bizarre situation in the Cang Kingdom." "He sacrificed his life to give the entire nation the right to know, and to give all of humanity the opportunity to face this crisis with clarity." Boom—

    The immersive experience is incredibly realistic, with constant plot twists, making it perfect for late-night reading. The atmosphere and character development are excellent. The ghost-fighting scenes are unique; each predicament feels incredibly real, and it incorporates elements of the 749 series – brass knuckles, butterfly knives, and batons can all be used to fight ghosts, plus there are guns! Highly recommended. Crucially, this book is high-energy throughout, constantly setting up mysteries that keep you hooked.
