Han Xiao, a veteran power leveler in Starsea, was thrown into the transmigration army by a mysterious force from the East. He was transformed into an NPC with a player panel and returned to the time before the open beta of Starsea. He resolutely chose the most difficult mechanical class. Warships lined up across the starry sea, star mechs soared like dragons, psionic cannons ravaged the heavens and earth, and an endless mechanical army quietly waited in their personal storage. One person is an entire legion! If it weren't for the players, this book would be a serious and proper isekai (another world) story... As NPCs, normal NPCs offer a full range of functions to players... Issuing quests? Adjusting affinity? Teaching skills? Wait a minute, I recognize all these players. Well, the real world has also returned to what it was ten years ago. Group 2: 157302881 Group 3: 884339155 VIP Group: 547599250 (Requires 10,000 follower points for administrator approval)

When a Sage arrives, his words and writing can condemn a man, judge an emperor's rule unjust, and take on an 50Votes9.6MRecs2MFans

Curator note

This is a world where scholars wield the power of heaven and earth. With talent, one can kill enemies with poetry, annihilate armies with lyrics, and bring peace to the world with prose. A scholar can strategize on paper; a successful candidate in the provincial examination can compose poems and write essays; and a candidate in the imperial examination can engage in heated debates. When a sage arrives, he can condemn people with words and writings, punish individuals, and judge the emperor as tyrannical, making one a match for an entire nation. At this time, the Holy Academy held the civil service positions, the monarch controlled the official positions, ten kingdoms were vying for power, barbarian tribes were eyeing the country covetously, and demons were causing chaos. At this time, there was no flourishing of Tang poetry, no golden age of Song lyrics, no innovative writing, and no new sages for a hundred years. An unknown, poor boy, after having his head smashed, embarked on the path to sainthood, carrying with him timeless poems and astonishing writings.

His ideal life is to get by in peace, renting out a modest home and making enough to live on without ever getting rich.

Curator note

Hao Ren, true to his name, is a good person whose ideal is to live a peaceful life as a landlord who is neither poor nor rich—at least that's how it was before a bunch of crazy creatures moved into his house. A secluded, dilapidated house, a bunch of somewhat abnormal non-human creatures, and a labor contract from a "god"—these three elements combined make Hao Ren the busiest landlord and most capable nanny in the world. Thus begins the most chaotic, strangest, and most abnormal landlord-tenant story. "From the day I put my fingerprint on the employment contract, I knew I was on a sinking ship..."

13 希EN The Empire of Shilin 希灵帝国 Yuantong远瞳Sci-Fi8.1M WordsCompleted This isn't about imperial conquest, adventures in another world, or leveling up and cultivating.

One day, Song Shuhang accidentally joined a chat group for hardcore fans of fantasy novels and chuunibyou (a Japanese term for someone with delusions of grandeur). The group members all addressed each other as "fellow Daoists," and their nicknames were filled with various titles like "Lord of a Palace," "Master of a Cave," "True Person," and "Celestial Master." Even the group owner's lost pet dog was referred to as a "Great Demon Dog Who Ran Away from Home." They spent all their time discussing alchemy, exploring secret realms, and cultivation techniques. One day, after lurking for a long time, he suddenly discovered that... Every single member of the group was actually a cultivator, the kind who could move mountains and overturn seas and live for thousands of years! Ugh, my worldview has completely shattered overnight!
