Not updated daily. Wrapping things up at a leisurely pace.
(Apocalypse + hoarding supplies + infrastructure building)
A doomsday game invaded, pulling two billion people around the world into the game to struggle for survival.
Here, a disaster struck every ten days. Extreme cold, drought, floods, earthquakes, and other disasters came in turn, while famine, disease, attacks by savages, and other man-made calamities continued without end.
Humanity could only find a chance to survive by constantly searching the islands for supply chests and improving their own abilities.
*
When the game arrived, Lu Yan, who was working through civil service exam questions, became one of the two billion players.
The good news: she came with a golden finger.
The bad news: her golden finger was a quiz chest.
[The daily quiz is beginning. Answer correctly to open a chest.]
[How many teeth does a mosquito have?]
[A. 10 B. 22 C. 28 D. The question is flawed]
Lu Yan: I don't get it, but I'll pick D.
[Congratulations, Host. Your answer is correct. Only female mosquitoes have teeth, and they have 22. Male mosquitoes have none.]
[Chest opened. Congratulations, Host, you've received the "22 gives 4" luck bonus. Today's supplies are multiplied by four.]
[What does a fly taste like?]
[A. Sweet B. Bitter C. Stinky D. Sour]
Lu Yan: I've done this one before. I'll pick A.
[Correct. You've received the "Sweet as Honey" luck bonus. All supplies you obtain today will taste sweet.]
[Question...]
Lu Yan: It's the end of the world, so why can't this civil service exam veteran escape the civil service exam?!
Note: The questions come from bizarre civil service exam questions found online and quiz chests on Jinjiang.
The map isn't limited to islands. Later, the story will move out to sea.
There is a male lead, but he appears late. In the early story, he's a little octopus. There are non-human romance elements.
Pre-release: The First Summoner in the Galaxy. Please add it to your collection!
Blurb:
This is a galactic era in which summoners are hated by everyone.
As history changed and culture was lost, summoners' imaginations dwindled. Unable to summon high-level combat beasts, they became the lowest-ranked of the ten major professions in the galaxy.
So when a summoner with an attack power in the single digits entered the galactic trial arena, every spectator burst out laughing.
"A summoner joined the competition? Did she fail to find a good way to kill herself?"
Everyone thought she was finished. They waited in her livestream, hoping to watch her fear and death.
But they never expected that, after waiting and waiting, all they would see was Wen Ci take the top spot.
*
Wen Ci had been hailed as the one and only god of summoners. After transmigrating, however, she became a cannon-fodder summoner sent into the trial arena by her scumbag boyfriend and his mistress.
Faced with the mockery of her enemies and the audience, Wen Ci remained calm. Other summoners might lack imagination, but she'd received a traditional Chinese education.
To deal with them, the classical texts she had to memorize in high school were enough.
In the "High Mountain" instance, contestants had to reach the summit of a towering mountain as quickly as possible and retrieve a scepter.
Some hiked up the mountain, some flew on flying swords, and some climbed the rock face...
Only Wen Ci recited "A Happy Excursion" and summoned a giant Peng bird, soaring 90,000 li into the sky with the towering mountain far below.
The "Abyss" instance was deep and dark, with all sorts of dangers lurking beneath the water. Contestants sank one after another.
Wen Ci pressed her palms together and recited, "When water gathers into an abyss, dragons are born." A summoned dragon then flew out of the water and carried her over the waves, straight to the other side.
Competition after competition, one classical poem after another. None of the combat beasts she summoned were weak, and the entire summoner profession was elevated to the divine realm because of Wen Ci.
Some people still weren't convinced: "I don't believe her imagination will never run dry!"
Wen Ci replied calmly, "Perhaps you should learn about The Classic of Mountains and Seas, Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio, Journey to the West, and The Unofficial History of Scholars..."
Theme: Knowledge is a shield against every disaster
It's all given to the male protagonist, what about the female protagonist?
The novel is very interesting. I didn't expect humans and NPCs to unite to defeat a powerful system. The bad nature of humans is still reflected in NPCs. They are greedy, love money, love power, etc. They betrayed the tribe and still had the nerve to continue living in the tribe. I always felt that Tu Lian would be unlucky. After all, Tu Xiang showed irritability in the tribe. He was eating soft food while still feeling that Tu Lian was superior. If he really became the leader of the rabbit tribe as he wished, I guess the rabbit tribe would be in chaos.
Excluding the NPC content, the survival plot is okay. The heroine's golden finger is more obvious in terms of materials, but her own strength is slightly insufficient. Every time she fights, she is beaten badly by the same level.
The emotional line is so perfunctory, so I'd like to be the heroine of the story.
"Wei" is a big bug for the author~
I don't know why, but I can't access the update page. Maybe it's crashed. I'm a little sleepy. I won't wait for jj. Don't wait any more. I'll take a day off first. I'll try to make more updates tomorrow and post them together.
