🌐 The Invitation Code

The night the world fell silent, every voice vanished for exactly three seconds.
The next morning, a chosen few received a single message: an invitation code.

Shen Ruichen, twenty-seven, once a semiconductor engineer at TSMC and now a tech journalist for Southern Daily, never expected her life to be rewritten.
But when the code arrived, it wasn't an opportunity. It was an assignment-roles no one chose: observer, manipulator, killer, or sacrifice.

As phantom signals spread across cities and human memories fracture, Ruichen must decide if her obsessive mind is her downfall-or the last defense against a world quietly overwritten.

💬 What if your every choice had already been coded in red?

يا شبيهين للثريا في علاك by rcixia

من وسط غابات الدُجى، في فصل الشتاء، حيث يتعانق الضباب مع أغصانٍ عارية كالأسرار، بدأتُ أنسج الخيال بحكايةٍ لا تتكرّر. لم تكن حكاية تُروى على لسان أحد، بل فيضٌ من الهواجيس، تسكّنت في داخلي زمنًا، حتى لفظها القلم كأنّه ينزف. في كل سطر، كانت الغابة تحكم قبضتها على الذاكرة، تسحبني إلى عمقٍ لا يُشبه إلا الحلم، حين يصبح كابوسًا. إنها حكاية وُلدت بين الغيهب، المنطلق من غابات الدُجى، والنيار المشتعل في أطرافها... بين السواد الذي يبتلع الأصوات، واللهب الذي يلتهم الظلال، بين الشرسة الصامتة، التي تسكن أعماق الأرض، والنار التي لا ترحم، حتى في رقتها. كأنّها صراعٌ أبديّ بين الغموض والنور، لا غالب فيه إلا الحكاية نفسها. ليست هذه الحكاية من زمنٍ معروف، ولا من مكانٍ مألوف. هي نثرُ هواجيس، لا تُروى بل تُنسج، لا تُكتب بل تتسرّب من بين السطور. حكاية تولد في الفراغ، وتعيش في الظل، لا تبحث عن منطق، بل عن شعورٍ يلامس الغياب. في حضرة الغابة، وفي غياب اليقين، تصبح كل فكرة مأوى، وكل رعشة قلم، احتمالًا لحقيقة لم تُكتشف بعد. فليست الحكاية ما نكتبه، بل ما يكتبه بنا، حين نستسلم للتيه الجميل، ونمضي بلا خريطة، سوى خفقة شعور دُجى ♟️

Thats right.Only females.Theres no males? there are but... they're so few you can consider them extinct.. But for a man like me,this is of no problem at all. As I am the Proud Divine Emperor!!The conquerer of Women!! nah... im joking. Obviously. Though if I was to describe myself,then it would be ,above average.From my face,physique,intellect,personality, and many more ,at least in my understanding ,it is. It wasn't even that bad...yet ,in just a single night... I was not in my body anymore!? Like.. I didnt even die..! How is this possible? I didnt get hit by a truck,I didnt spam a 5700 words hate comment,and most of all I'm not even that badly attach to this game like some kind of game addict,in fact it should be my friend.... ..Do I adapt and live in this word,or should I persist and try to find a way to go back to my original world?knowing I didnt even die?

Build A Scientific And Technological Civilization ( Book 2 ) by Sokdavid123

In a universe where every person awakens a Planet as the foundation of their power, the strength of one's civilization determines their might. From martial worlds where warriors reign, to mystic realms teeming with magic, to ethereal domains of immortal cultivators, every awakened Planet becomes a reflection of its creator's path. But Alexander Sebastian is different. Reborn with memories from a modern, Earth-like world, he forges something never seen before: a Technological Civilization. While others summon Qi, Mana, or Spiritual Power, Sebastian builds factories, launches satellites, and commands fleets of starships. With logic as his weapon and science as his foundation, Sebastian begins to shake the very foundations of this Supernatural cosmos. When a Star Destroyer punches through planets and dimensional weapons turn worlds into nothing more than paper, even the proudest civilizations must bow before the cold, unrelenting force of progress. Witness a tale where science defies fantasy, and technology becomes the ultimate path to dominance. _____ This is a translation. The Original Title is: 人人一颗星球：开局打造科技文明 Sorry, my English as my second language is average, so forgive me if there is a mistake. The later chapter will have better quality.

After Becoming the "Evil" Guide, Everyone Fell for Me by LingYuexin

Ji Zi never asked to time-travel, much less wake up trapped inside the infamous Black Tower, her mind sealed and her power shackled. But when her mental bonds suddenly shatter, the once-timid guide who couldn't even soothe a sentinel begins her full-scale counterattack. Guiding and marking sentinels? That's just the beginning. Her real gift lies in CONTROL. As a rare offensive-type guide, unseen in the interstellar world for centuries, Ji Zi refuses to be anyone's fragile little flower. She commands, and they obey. A fiery, battle-hardened black-uniformed commander? A snow-skinned, yandere noble with a dangerous temper? The Federation's most dazzling genius, the man worshiped as the soul of his civilization? Even the last Dark Sentinel, the living weapon once thought lost to madness, breaks free of his cage... all for her. And Ji Zi? She smiles, tilts her head, and whispers- "Be good."
