The Empire of Shilin 希灵帝国
This isn't about imperial conquest, adventures in another world, or leveling up and cultivating. In fact, this is a very serious, proper, and earnest hard science-fiction story about saving the world. Just take it seriously. All right, actually, it's just the hilarious, shameless daily life of a bunch of screwball leaders and a deadbeat head of state saving the world. A slacker shut-in suddenly becomes the head of an empire, while a middle-aged man with a super-dad aura adopts countless little g

A remote, dilapidated mansion, a bunch of abnormal nonhuman creatures, and an employment contract from “the gods.” Put those three things together, and Hao Ren becomes the busiest landlord and most capable babysitter in the world.

Oh, give me a break. Why are you still talking to me about dreams? The average subscriptions have already passed three thousand, so updating the novel with one chapter a day is enough, right? Why write so much more? The manuscript fee is already five hundred yuan per page, so updating one comic episode a month is perfectly fine, right? Why produce so much more?
