The dead have never been so alive. After a deadly contagion reduced the world's population into mindless, undead monsters, the ruins of America still teem with activity, as some of the dead have regained their intelligence and created their own society; one free from the living's touch. Now, more than a decade later, survivalist extraordinaire Liam Fenix undertakes a harrowing escape from the uninhabited island that has been his prison since before the outbreak began, only to discover that he is the sole survivor of the civilization he left behind. He is not alone, however, as reincarnated bounty hunter Leah believes that Liam holds the key to reversing the pandemic that created her race. Armed with their survivalist expertise and following traces of the past, the two must traverse the wastelands together and bring back life to an otherwise dead world, even as they are pursued by a tyrant who does not want this plague to end. ------- Top tags to date: #1 in Gritty 12/21/2022 - 1/11/2023 ------- New chapters will be posted on Mondays, 4:00-6:00PM EST.

Wattys 2023 Winner | Most Engaging World Award I'm Miko, an overweight chef, and a part-time mukbang livestreamer. And I believe that food is life. But one day, dungeons appeared inside the balete trees. And chosen people are transported in this dungeon to clear its quest. Or else, the balete tree will continue to spawn monsters that will destroy humanity. Horribly, I am one of those chosen people, who are now called Katalonan. Each of us is given an ability by a Diwata to help us clear the quest. But I only got poison immunity from my Diwata! Hardly enough, It is not helpful in fighting and I failed to clear the quest of killing one monster. Thus, I got trapped inside the balete tree. I tried to survive by killing monsters, and my poison immunity became helpful so I could eat them. But I can't believe that I would level up and get the ability of that monster. Finally, I know a way to survive in this dungeon while waiting for the portal to open once again. If my Diwata can't give me a fighting ability. Then, I'll just eat all the monsters in here, so I could get all their powerful abilities! This is Miko, and welcome to my mukbang show. In this dungeon, I'll just devour all the monsters!
