I Took My Bed Across the Ocean [Natural Disaster]

[After going premium, updates will be at least six chapters a week, aiming for nine. Extra chapters depend on circumstances.] [With the One-Cut System, I Rule the Seas] Everything changed. The moment I opened my eyes, the whole world had changed. After staying up all night and only just managing to fall asleep, Chang Ruijia stared wide-eyed at her surroundings. The global temperature had suddenly risen overnight. Glaciers melted, and sea levels rose. The whole world had become an ocean overnight, and all human civilization had gone up in flames. Still, the world had left humanity some room to survive. Within a year, the item each person used most often in daily life became their only means of transport. All human activity would now take place on that tiny patch of space. And so, all sorts of wonders could be seen on the calm, placid sea. Photographers perched on suddenly enormous camera lenses, beauty bloggers on makeup cushions, food influencers on enamel pots... Chang Ruijia had it pretty easy. As a super-lazy person who would lie down rather than sit, and sit rather than stand, her survival tool was a comfortable, soft, fully automatic bed that had cost a fortune. She also had snacks and daily necessities scattered in every corner of the bed. Chang Ruijia flopped down on the bed. At least, if she died, she'd die in comfort. But then a mechanical voice suddenly rang out in her mind. "Take a cut, take a cut. Just take one cut, and the item of your choice is yours!" This is the One-Cut System, at your service! Looking at the familiar app with the character "Cut" suddenly appearing in midair, Chang Ruijia raised an eyebrow. Wasn't this her chance to survive? Many years into the New Ocean Era, so far into its new calendar that no one could say what year it was, when people spoke of their ancestors, the first ones to face the unknown, raging ocean, the first person who always came to mind was the figure who was always at the head of the pack. Legend has it that she had an unknowable hobby, and took pleasure in tearing ocean monsters apart with her bare hands. Legend has it that the New Ocean Era began because she cruelly wiped out great numbers of marine creatures. Legend has it that even more than a hundred nautical miles away, people could hear her cruel laughter. Legend has it... Chang Ruijia: :), who started that rumor? Find them, and I promise (through gritted teeth) I won't kill them! [Gentle reminder: The author's knowledge is limited. Information about the primordial ocean environment and the monsters in this story draws on Baidu Baike, but most of it is made up. This is an extremely loosely built fictional world, so please don't compare it to reality or nitpick the details. Go easy on me, QAQ.] -- Next book, now available to preorder: From the Start, I'm Fifteen Years into the Apocalypse Ding Xiayue thought things couldn't possibly get any worse. She'd just bought an RV and was planning a spontaneous road trip. Then, while giving two kids who had just finished their college entrance exams a ride to an amusement park, she ran straight into a swarm of insects blotting out the sky. When she opened her eyes again, it was as if she'd entered an uninhabited zone. A straight but bumpy highway, and a strange voice that appeared in her mind out of nowhere. Most importantly, what were those people talking about? The road game had arrived fifteen years ago?! The road game hadn't expected that, after descending on nothing but a low-grade, third-level planet, its energy would run rampant by accident. Aw, it felt a little bad for the few newcomers who'd been caught up in it by mistake~ But! No one can escape being selected by the System. Heh heh, why not see how they survive in a harsh environment, surrounded by players as ravenous as wolves and tigers? -- Ever since the road game arrived, people seemed to have grown used to this rhythm of life. In the spare moments between work and rest each day, they would always look up at the enormous screen in the sky. Millions of people were still trapped there, fighting for humanity's tomorrow. But at some point, among the million high-level players who'd survived the survival of the fittest, a few naive-looking newbies who seemed like blank slates suddenly appeared. This was going to be fun. "Hey, those kids ran into Brother Qi. Looks like he's about to take all their supplies!" "Exactly. Brother Qi is in the top 300 on the combat rankings. How could their crappy little starter car stand a chance?" "They'll probably get cleaned out in no time... Wait! What the hell are they doing?" "They're actually charging right at him? Go, Brother Qi! Brother Qi... Why is Brother Qi's car crushed?" "What a useless loser! And I supported him for two whole days! Huh? Why aren't they getting out to loot the supplies?" Meanwhile, inside the RV, the people who'd just recklessly charged straight ahead stared at one another. They'd crashed into their opponent, sure, but how were they supposed to get back the things they ought to take, and the things they shouldn't? The car had the System's compensation to protect it, but they didn't! If they opened the door and charged out, wouldn't they get beaten into helpless little pushovers...?
