I can't believe it, I started a new story again without even realizing it!!!
I shouldn't have set a start date when scheduling the chapters!!!
This foolish author got stuck, went off to read other stories, and completely forgot about this one!
I'm so sorry, everyone. I'm crying my eyes out!
Here's the story blurb
Blue Star and the world of the uncanny merge, transforming the world completely. For humanity on Blue Star, it's the apocalypse.
In her previous life, when disaster struck, Miao Hui was just a senior in college. Frail and sickly, she was even more vulnerable than the average person. The only thing she had going for her was her sky-high Luck stat of 471.
Lucky Miao Hui is reborn from the seventh year of the apocalypse. Fate grants her three days, and she vows: In her previous life, her family did everything they could to keep her alive. This time, she'll do everything she can to make sure her parents and loved ones survive, too.
Reborn Miao Hui starts with 820,000 nether coins. Her one and only wish is to protect her family.
But life is unpredictable. Her very first apocalypse lottery wins her an outrageous grand prize, and from then on, fate hurtles down an unfamiliar path.
One day, Miao Hui looks back and realizes that, starting with an underground tutoring center she ran while working and studying, she used the good luck bestowed on her by the heavens (?) to build a semi-automated management System from scratch. Before she knew it, she'd founded Blue Star's first comprehensive survival school and base for humanity, achieving the status of a behind-the-scenes big shot!
This story is also known as:
I'm Back from the World of the Uncanny
A Survival Guide to the World of the Uncanny
A Step-by-Step Guide to Killing the Uncanny
How to Lie Low and Survive to the End in the World of the Uncanny
Traveling Between Two Worlds, I'm the Behind-the-Scenes Supplier
Who Needs a Management System? We'll Build One Ourselves
Notes:
1. I really can't imagine who the heroine would fall for, so I'm challenging myself to write another story with no romance. Author Jiu swears that if this one fails too, it'll be the last time.
2. The heroine returns from the apocalypse. She's gentle on the outside but cold within, so don't judge her by the standards of a peaceful world. Also, she grew up surrounded by love, and the apocalypse didn't warp her into someone else. She's not truly cold-hearted. She prioritizes herself and her family, and helps others when she's able.
3. It's in her nature that she ends up in a position of power. You could say it's fate, or luck. She won't step into the spotlight, though. She'll remain the big boss behind the scenes.
4. This story has exactly one dungeon instance, so it isn't an infinite-flow novel. But there's plenty of travel between worlds, along with a plot about building a management System from scratch. It's a bit of a patchwork.
5. I haven't thought of anything yet. I'll add more when I do.

Special note: The main inspiration for this story and its setting comes from I Recharged a Trillion Nether Coins When the Uncanny Descended, but only its broad background setting. Neither the characters nor the story are related to that work, and in my personal opinion, this doesn't count as fanfiction.
Also, I don't think I can handle an overly vast world, so this setting is much simpler than that of When the Uncanny Descended. I mainly borrowed the framework for the Blue Star setting and changed many of the details. I wanted to make that clear and thank the author, Jiu Xiang You Cao Xiang. I recommend their novel to fans of apocalyptic fiction.
