The Day of Arrival [Apocalypse]

[Preorders for "The Day of Descent" open July 11 at 7 p.m. If you’re interested, follow vb@Yan Fufu]

After dying one day, Liang Ran transmigrated to an apocalyptic world overrun by alien creatures.

But she hadn’t become a powerful esper. Instead, she was a third-class citizen in the worst physical condition.

On top of that, she was a researcher who had to spend every day alongside stinking, slimy alien creatures.

And to top it all off, she was forcibly matched with a strange man and expected to do her part to help humanity reproduce.

Liang Ran: “...”

Could I kill myself and transmigrate to a different world?

*

The Xuanxing Squad was a newly emerging team of hunters in the apocalypse. To avoid her reproductive duty, Liang Ran volunteered to join them on a supply run into a contaminated zone.

Everyone laughed at her and looked down on her. Her teammates even bet on how many days it would take for her to die beneath the monsters’ serrated jaws.

On the way there, the team was suddenly attacked by a large swarm of crawler-type creatures.

They ignored Liang Ran’s advice again and again, until her teammates were badly wounded and sprawled on the ground. The monsters drooled as they opened their chests, ready to feast

Furious, Liang Ran snapped, “I’ll say it again: I’ve dissected this kind of creature! Its heart is in its tail. Don’t hit its chest, and definitely don’t hit its head!”

The others gave a helpless, bitter laugh. “There’s nothing we can do.”

Liang Ran kicked the person nearest her. “Get up and do what I say. We’re fighting again.”

Everyone: “...?”

Liang Ran struggled to lift a giant axe heavier than she was, then swung it backhanded and smashed an alien creature dead at her feet. “Just listen to me, and you’ll all make it out alive.”

As the apocalypse progressed, countless never-before-seen monsters descended upon the world, and pioneers flocked into the contaminated zones, one after another.

A post called "The Apocalypse Alien Creature Files" appeared out of nowhere and quickly spread throughout the surviving population.

First- and second-class citizens treated it as a guide to staying alive, while third-class citizens picked up their weapons and learned how to protect their homes.

Everyone knew the post came from the research institute, but no one knew who had written it.

In the worst year of the apocalypse, the author of "The Apocalypse Alien Creature Files" suddenly announced that it was about to end. Panic swept the population as everyone tremblingly turned to the next page of the forum.

“Year 52 of the New Calendar, December 31. New Year’s Eve in the old world.”

There, they saw these words:

“I have solved the mystery of the alien creatures’ genetic sequence.”

Liang Ran, Senior Researcher at the Research Institute.

[Content warnings]

An original fictional setting, written for fun. It’s about struggling to survive the apocalypse, not a power fantasy.

The alien creatures are too powerful, and the female lead’s golden finger is limited. It’s hard enough for her to keep herself alive in the early and middle stages. She can only fight for her life, and everyone’s miserable.

The overall tone is oppressive. Many people die, but plenty also strive to build a better future.

An important supporting character dies. (But as the final battle approached, the author couldn’t bear to kill off the main cast. I cried myself to sleep every day and ended up hospitalized for half a month after my immune system took a serious hit. I temporarily changed the setup to recover, basically overturning this warning from before I started writing. The ending is nowhere near as tragic as I originally planned. There are farewells, but the group is together again in the end.)

The female lead is the strongest.

The male lead is just background scenery.

Many supporting characters aren’t likable. That has everything to do with the apocalyptic setting, their education, harsh laws, and the environments they grew up in. They weren’t born good people, but they can become good in the end.

Everyone has plots and settings they can’t stand. Please don’t force yourself to read if you’re not enjoying it ahhh (slowly collapses).

Coming soon: *Sister, Save Me. Little Sister Loves You [Infinite]*

Chu Qingxia had the luck of a dog stepping in it: she died, came back to life, and transmigrated into an Infinite Flow novel she’d read.

The novel had three female leads.

One was the saintly, unattainable heroine, You Qinghe. She grew up with the male lead and died in the beginner instance while saving an elderly stranger, leaving nothing but bone fragments after the ghosts devoured her. The male lead missed her for the rest of his life.

One was Jiang Fengjue, a cold and unsmiling heroine with formidable combat skills. To repay the male lead for saving her life, she used her metal ability to help him build an ironclad team. She never asked for anything in return, secretly loved him the whole time, and eventually died saving him.

And one was the beautiful, universally adored heroine He Yun. She fell in love at first sight with the male lead, a privileged heir, and followed him everywhere. He kept bouncing between all the women in his life before finally choosing to spend the rest of his life with her, swearing he’d marry her once they escaped the Infinite world.

Just after transmigrating, Chu Qingxia blinked and silently met the heroine’s gaze.

It was confirmed.

No wonder she was a heroine. Chu Qingxia loved her too!

The Infinite world had a live ranking board. At some point, a four-person team suddenly appeared and shot up the rankings, quickly breaking into the top three.

After successfully clearing an S-rank instance, Chu Qingxia’s team rose to the top of the Infinite world rankings.

As soon as they left the instance, Chu Qingxia picked up the blood-covered little black cat. “Thanks for all your hard work, System guy!”

You Qinghe smiled, took the little black cat from her, and set it on the ground. “That blood is Xiaxia’s, not its. It didn’t work hard.”

Jiang Fengjue frowned. “What kind of cat is it, anyway? Maybe it turned into a cat just because you like them.”

He Yun smiled. “It’s too small to go into an instance. How about we stop bringing it along?”

Chu Qingxia: Something seems off here.

But the sisters’ smiles were so pretty, hehe.

*

Chu Qingxia had been in poor health since childhood. Whenever they entered an instance, she tried to hide and give her teammates room to shine, doing everything she could not to hold them back.

But in the end, her legend spread throughout the Infinite world.

She even held firmly to the top spot on the individual rankings.

They called her

“The Infinite World’s Number One Strategist.”

“The most ruthless member of the top team.”

#The sisters are all super obedient, and even the others turn super obedient after I mess with them a little.#

#I’m not a strategist. I’m the sisters’ precious little baby.#
