The Apocalypse Big Shot Picked Up a Loyal Little Puppy

1. Gu Xuanzhu was the final boss villain in an apocalypse novel. The protagonists rallied all of humanity to assassinate him, but... he survived. The protagonists, on the other hand, were well and truly dead.

As he lay on the brink of death, a clumsy System accidentally stumbled upon him and bound itself to him without a word.

The System boasted, “Become my Host, and I'll let you be reborn and help you make up for your regrets!”

The next second, Gu Xuanzhu was fully healed, while the villain boss easily captured the System.

The System immediately changed its tune: “Your son was being rebellious. Dad, carry me to victory!”

To put an end to his dull, monotonous life, Gu Xuanzhu decided to fall in love.

The System took the chance to make a sales pitch: “There's a villain in the neighboring world who's just like you: gorgeous, tall, and long-legged. His dad doesn't care about him, his mom doesn't love him, and his scummy mom and stepfather's family have been emotionally abusing him terribly. Go give him some warmth and you'll win him over in no time.”

Gu Xuanzhu stroked his chin and pondered. “There's no need to make it that easy.”

System: “...”

It didn't take long for the System to understand what he meant.

When other protagonists are targeted: they face thrilling danger, come within a hair's breadth of death time and again, and survive against all odds through their wits and unbelievable luck.

When Gu Xuanzhu is targeted: “Let's see which trump card I'll use today.”

2. Rescued from an endless abyss, Lu Yi regained his freedom, but a debuff now bound his life to his enemy's: if one died, the other would die too. He had no choice but to do everything he could to keep the other man alive.

Lu Yi was devastated. He felt he'd let his benefactor down and was too ashamed to face Gu Xuanzhu. But just then, the villain boss, who had been half asleep, suddenly perked up.

Gu Xuanzhu: “Now this is getting interesting.”
