The Wasteland's Top Undercover Agent

Blurb: Zhao Xi transmigrated into an old-fashioned melodramatic novel. By the time she realized she was the book's cannon-fodder villain, she had already made an enemy of the original female lead. Everyone knows the female lead of an old-fashioned melodramatic novel is the last person you want to provoke. Picking a fight with her means picking a fight with a whole crowd. You'd face a murderous maniac of a male lead, along with the second, third, and fourth male leads who are in love with her. In other words, she was already as good as dead. Zhao Xi: ... (her expression slowly turns horrified) * To save herself, Zhao Xi carefully went undercover among the protagonists and worked like a pack mule. She only hoped that once they learned the truth, they'd go easy on her in recognition of all her diligent work for them. * Then one day, every major faction in the world had its headquarters wiped out overnight. The reason turned out to be... An experienced undercover agent had successfully misdirected everyone. Not only had she infiltrated every top faction, she'd even risen to become a core member of the organization! Then she betrayed them in one fell swoop, catching all the major factions completely off guard. As a result, the protagonist was so furious they fell seriously ill and never got out of bed. Seeing this, Zhao Xi, true to the principles of an exemplary office workhorse, hurried to ingratiate herself: "Boss, is there anything you need?" Protagonist (trembling): "...Could you move the knife away from my neck?" * After learning that she was destined to die, Zhao Xi decided to go undercover and strike first. But from her years of watching police dramas, she knew that being an undercover agent wasn't a promising career. So... Zhao Xi became an undercover agent within an undercover agent within an undercover agent within an undercover agent within an undercover agent... #As the saying goes, cast a wide net to catch more fish. #If infiltrating one organization is too risky, I might as well infiltrate several. * A new book in the same world is already out: Earn 100 Million Through Exams [Infinite] Han Linxi was Black Impermanence in the underworld. After being reborn into a poor family, she was so broke she nearly starved to death. Just then, a wealthy second-generation school principal put up a huge sum to encourage students to excel, promising a scholarship worth millions to whoever ranked first in every exam. Unfortunately, she'd spent too long in the underworld and knew nothing about the subjects taught in this era. All she could do was study hard, hoping to improve her life with the scholarship. On the day of the exam, she entered the waiting area nervously, looking miserable, with dark circles under her grayish eyes and a backpack full of revision materials. "The first mock exam of the year for Nancheng No. 1 High School begins now." "Exam world: Great Shang." "Exam content: Kill all the ghosts within three hours. Please try not to let them eat you." She looked at the little ghosts before her, whose bodies resembled bronze cauldrons, and slowly formed a question mark. ...So, when she'd fought for a ticket to reincarnation and wasn't paying attention, she'd ended up in a world invaded by ghosts and monsters? * Ten years ago, a Class-S pollution outbreak caused dynasties buried in the river of history to reappear in Huaguo as mutated ghost dungeons. Since the dungeons were dangerous and captured people at random, the National Examination Authority decided to include dungeon simulations in the college entrance exam, encouraging students to get more practical experience and improve the survival rate of the next generation. When the annual college entrance exam dungeons opened, every examinee's every move would be livestreamed to the whole country. Teachers from the National Examination Authority were commenting on each student's exam performance one by one. [Student A is doing well! Awakened an S-rank talent, huh? They look like a promising candidate for exploring high-risk dynasties!] The camera shifted to Han Linxi. [This is who Nancheng No. 1 High School sent to take the exam? That shabby school that hasn't managed to recruit a single student for three years in a row?] [Psychic power level unknown, talent not awakened... Why did Nancheng No. 1 send her? To die?] [Wait, what is she doing?!] The other students were using their wits to fight the ghosts and monsters, but somehow the little ghosts trembled with fear as soon as they saw her. All three hundred livestream drones, along with everyone watching, turned to look at her. They saw her sneakily knock out the most vicious Emperor Ghost in the entire dungeon and write a line of tiny text on its forehead: "Ad space in my livestream channel for rent. Contact me at comms number xxx if interested. Highest bid wins. First come, first served." Teachers: ... Livestream viewers: ... * 1. Superpowers + paranormal invasion + a touch of ensemble cast. 2. Includes mythology and Lovecraftian elements. Theme: Even in the darkness, someone will keep a light burning
