I Became the Strongest Just by Eating My Fill

Hello, I’m the author’s friend. The author passed away today after an illness.

She has seen everyone’s comments during this time. Thank you all for supporting her over the years, and for waiting.

From now on, the author’s brother will take over this account. Her life has ended, but her story won’t end here. Once her brother has figured out what she wrote, he’ll do his best to help her finish the story. It may take a very long time, and it may not be perfect, so please bear with us.

Lin Zhi Lu, who was a zombie in her previous life, transmigrates into a post-apocalyptic oceanic wasteland. All she wants is to be an unremarkable wage slave.

But her new body’s genes are breaking down. To afford the exorbitantly priced medicine that costs one million a month, she takes a high-paying, high-risk job.

At the research institute, every colleague has a special talent. Some can transform into Terminators, others become sea monsters, and one can pull a nuclear bomb out of their pocket at any moment.

Lin Zhi Lu: ...Um, does being able to eat a lot count as a job skill?

Some particularly disgruntled posts have appeared on the Lighthouse Forum app, and they all complain about the same person.

[Monthly rankings are in, and first place goes to the parachuted-in newcomer [Daiyu]. I got pushed off the bottom of the rankings!]

[I took a B-rank bone-swallowing giant catfish assignment, and she ate them all into extinction!]

[I just wanted to take a job and earn enough to buy groceries, but she cleared out every assignment. I was so broke I had to chew on bean sprouts for a week!]

[Daiyu, you’re a monster!]

The girl waiting for her teammates to cook a feast smiled faintly. “Not at all. She was just really hungry.”

Later, Lin Zhi Lu and her Spark Squad tear open the underwater cage imprisoning humanity.

When a ray of sunlight illuminates the human world for the first time in a century, people sing her name.

[The Firestarter: Lin Zhi Lu]

When teammate A maliciously pets her and asks how it feels--

Lin Zhi Lu: If I told you that all I wanted at first was enough to eat, would you believe me?

[Deadpan glutton cat x fun-loving orca keeper]

Reader’s Guide:

① Oceanic apocalypse, wasteland superpowers, mechanical modifications, with faint Lovecraftian elements.

② The heroine has never eaten a person. She’s the strongest character in the whole story. There’s a male lead and a main cast, but not much romance.

③ Cover artist: He Di Lao Qi Zi

"The Miaojiang Girl Is Adored by All Races in the Stars"

[Please add to your favorites so I can start writing!]

The Zerg, ancestors of the interstellar races, have finally found the egg of their lost princess, missing for ten thousand years.

When the young, delicate princess opens her bewitching purple eyes, billions of stars twinkle across the cosmos.

Su Miao, a sacred Gu child from Miaojiang, opens her eyes inside a giant eggshell. When she emerges, those tall and handsome beings compete to dress her in soft, gorgeous gowns and bring her gems made from stars.

Su Miao watches their bodies tremble with excitement as they kneel, while the System, which calls itself the Conqueror Game, tells her that the people before her are all subjects she is destined to conquer.

She smiles faintly and slowly rests the tip of her foot on their shoulders.

The restless instincts of a sacred Gu child tell her that she can control them however she likes.

--

The entire Interstellar Network is stunned by the news that the Zerg, silent for ten thousand years, have found their lost princess.

Meanwhile, the First Academy of the United Federation of Races welcomes a black-haired, purple-eyed girl who toys with a pitch-black scorpion in her palm.

She is delicate and beautiful, and even the occasional glimpse of her cruel, sharp side makes people worry that she might hurt herself.

Until the interstellar competition, where the girl wears strange Gu-caster garments, silver Miao silver bells on her ankles ringing softly.

Fierce alien beasts bow their heads in submission. The most bloodthirsty and savage champions of every race surround her, and no one on the Interstellar Network can look away.

Their hearts pound wildly, telling them:

--She is the one and only faith of every race in the stars.

-

The following love interests will appear, in no particular order.

[A lovesick, beautiful and tragic merfolk, a marshy green-tea flirt who follows the light: loving you means wanting to become one with you in every way]

[A deliciously hunky, carnivorous big dog who switches freely between wolfdog and puppy: no aggressive pursuit can compare to showing you through action]

[A breathtakingly beautiful, abstinent Zerg elder, with a warning for age-gap pseudo-stepmother fiction: he descends from his altar and kneels at your feet, begging for just one glance]

[A devoted guard who keeps his desires in check, the princess’s loyal dog and most fanatical believer: collecting your personal belongings? That’s just love]

The sole goal of this grand Conqueror of the Universe game System: Her Highness the Princess conquers the universe.

Reader’s Guide:

① A Mary Sue, beloved-by-all group romance with a game System golden finger.

② Important original setting: All interstellar races originate from the Zerg.

③ The heroine longs for love and loves intensely. There are multiple romances, but she never dates several people at once.

Depending on the author’s tastes, men of different races will appear. If you can’t accept that, run for your life!

④ The heroine is the only one in control, from beginning to end.

Theme: The wind and snow may press down on me for a few years, but after that, all will be sunny days.
