Two industrial revolutions over roughly two hundred and fifty years brought humanity into the electrical age, and people became convinced that the world's underlying nature and the course of history held no more mysteries.
But seventeen years ago, an unknown force suddenly swept across four countries in the continent of Aoxiti. Its source, method of transmission, and molecular structure overturned everything humanity knew. The National Bureau for Anomalous Phenomena, the Holy Order of Purification Knights, the Eastern Union Institute of Scientific Research... One after another, organizations to combat the unknown force were established.
As investigations deepened, a massive earthquake that began sixty-eight years ago, changes of regime, schisms within esoteric sects... And tracing things further back, the rifting, sinking, and uplifting of landmasses over a hundred million years all seemed closely connected to what was happening.
Despair, fear, loss of control, mutation.
The unclean forces advance inexorably, sounding the bell of doom.
Kipling Lester, a “patient” born with an abnormality in his brain, starts out as an ordinary member of the Second Operations Team in the Armed Operations Division of the Tactical Response Department at the National Bureau for Anomalous Phenomena. Step by step, he becomes an interpreter of the world's truth and the fulcrum upon which humanity's survival rests. In the end, he leads all of humanity in uncovering the hidden truth and spearheads an unprecedented, grand plan to save the world, code-named “Funeral.”

Character DIY Building
This thread is for readers of "Funeral" to create their own character designs. Given that some settings involve spoilers, this post will only release relevant settings according to the update schedule, providing readers with some leeway. **Geographical Setting:** The world of "Funeral" consists of four continents: Craton, North Mesopotamia, Ossetia, and South Craton.
Last alliance, give me your support.
I stayed up all night watching "27 Years" a while ago and it brought tears to my eyes. This funeral was also good. Keep it up!
This is so well-written, author! I really want to sell my house to give you a reward, but the landlord is stopping me and absolutely won't let me, saying it's his house. 😭
Oh no, this book suddenly stopped updating for a day without any warning. What's going on? This feels so fake. I finally found a book with sound logic, but maybe it's too sound, so nobody reads it? 😭
To be honest, I rarely like stories that are too slow-paced, but this story is very well-structured and highly readable. If the world-building and character relationships can maintain their current state in the later stages, and the story itself can reach an average level, then the overall quality of this novel will be very high. However, I would like to mention that the combat scenes and scene descriptions are slightly weak, or rather, the imagination is a bit lacking.
Why is nobody reading it?
As a seasoned bookworm and science fiction connoisseur, I can say this book is one of the best in the science fiction genre. It's arguably a top-tier work within the science fiction section. The quality is excellent, it has the feel of reading a physical book, and the pacing is just right. I feel the results should be more than this; there just weren't enough recommendations.
Nice
The plot hasn't reached its climax yet, but the writing is smooth, the characters are well-developed, the protagonist is likable and has a good personality, and the plot has no logical inconsistencies. The two or three battle scenes in the middle are also written carefully, without any illogical moments.
It looks good The early part is somewhat boring because it's just setting up the story. If the opening doesn't serve as an introduction, but instead presents some suspenseful and thrilling scenes and then abruptly ends, acting as a trigger for the event... It should attract more readers.
After finishing "Twenty-Seven Years," I desperately needed a slightly better ending to heal me 😭 Although I know this ending is for the best, I still really wanted to see them witness the new world. Mr. Keating, all alone, watches over his former comrades and longs for more people to be with him. Veracruz's death was completely unexpected, sob sob. How to put it...
