Garth Davidson has spent his entire life fading into the background.
A forgotten foster kid turned invisible adult, he grew up doing chores for a family that treated him like a live‑in servant. The military discharged him for "failure to adapt." His students ignore him. His coworkers dump their work on him. Even the woman he loved for five years walked out-after cheating on him for months with someone he once called a friend.
On a quiet Monday afternoon after one final betrayal breaks something deep inside him, Garth climbs the chain‑link fence on the roof of the school where he teaches. One leg over. Arms out. Ready to let go.
Then the world below him erupts.
A cosmic digital intelligence-an ancient, wandering force that travels through networks and reconstitutes matter-descends on Earth. It doesn't infect people. It doesn't rewrite their minds. It hijacks their technology and uses it as a doorway to manifest creatures made of corrupted data and living flesh.
They tear through the school grounds in seconds. Students scatter. Teachers run. Some escape. Many don't. Fires ignite across town. Police cars scream down the main road as the first wave of digital‑flesh horrors spreads outward.
Garth watches it all from the rooftop.
He survives the opening attack for one simple reason:
He smashed his phone moments before climbing the fence.
No device.
No signal.
No doorway for the entity to reach him.
He isn't chosen.
He isn't special.
He's just one of the few people the cosmic force didn't immediately detect.
One of the few left...
Unconnected.
Now, as the world unravels into a nightmare of glitch‑born monsters and collapsing reality, Garth must decide whether to keep disappearing into the background-or step forward for the first time in his life. Not to save the world. Not to be a hero.
But because he's finally found something he can't walk away from.
The end of everything.

LOSS System: Last Store Standing
Jack didn't ask to save the world. He just wanted to run his convenience store in peace. Then he woke up in a wasteland. No town. No neighbors. No Wi-Fi. Just cracked red earth, dead trees, and a voice in his head calling itself the Limitless Omniversal Supply System. The LOSS System. Jack laughed for a very long time. The system was not amused. Now he has a fully stocked store, unlimited water and electricity, and a system that's somehow both all-powerful and deeply offended by everything he says. To survive in a world where the average temperature hits 52°C, Jack will have to sell supplies, make allies, build shelter, and figure out why his little store might be the first step toward bringing a dead world back to life. One cold soda at a time.
All Her Fluffy Beast Husband Are Top Tier Bigshot While Her Fertility Is 0
Transmigrated into a cannon fodder female character with 0 fertility and f mental strength in a book, Shi Lan ran to a remote star to become a prison warden in order to change her fate. The prison here holds top-tier powerhouses whose mental strength has collapsed. The previous wardens were unable to handle the heavy responsibilities and ran away quickly, leaving behind only prison management manuals filled with bold and red text. She thought the work ahead would be very difficult, but no one told her that the prison was full of large, fluffy creatures. The imposing white lion of Prison Number One, the most popular major general in the interstellar space, appears gentle and composed on the surface, but behind the scenes, he whispers, "Lanlan, can you look at me more? I need your comfort too..." The stunningly beautiful bird of paradise in Prison Number Two, one of the young masters of the Empire's four great families, is always arrogant, narcissistic, and vain, yet he secretly began to perform a courtship dance, asking, "Shi Lan, do you like it?" The taciturn and aloof Black Panther of Prison No. 3, the former heir to the empire, the eldest prince, is rumored to be indifferent to women, but in reality, "Lanlan, I can do somersaults too." Prison Number Four is home to a fluffy Pallas's cat who's all bark and no bite. One of the young masters of the Empire's four great families, he speaks with a menacing grin, but when you touch him, he whine and whimper, "Lanlan, if you dare touch me again... Awooo..." The magnificent and noble nine-tailed red fox of Prison No. 5, the former leader of the interstellar pirates before the Empire's recruitment, is rumored to be ruthless and cunning, yet she said with a gentle expression, "Lanlan, do other orcs have nine tails like me that you can touch?" The previous wardens were in a state of chaos, and Shi Lan was at a loss when faced with the fluffy creatures vying for her favor... (Credit to the Original Author Qing Shou)Complete

When the Apocalypse Begins, I'll Amass a Fortune
Reborn three days before the apocalypse, Chen Han knows exactly what's coming. One year after the launch of the global hit survival game 【Doomsday Dawn】, the game will descend into reality. Zombies will overrun the world, mutant beasts will hunt humanity, and civilization will collapse overnight. In his previous life, Chen Han survived the apocalypse only to be betrayed and murdered by the woman he loved, who coveted the resources he had risked everything to obtain. This time, he won't make the same mistake. Taking advantage of the recharge channel not yet being closed, Chen Han spent his entire fortune to activate the game's hidden class: the SSS-Rank Sword Immortal. Armed with knowledge from the future, he discovers a game-breaking loophole that allows him to store uncontaminated food before the apocalypse begins. While others remain unaware of the coming disaster, Chen Han buys out the entire food market, stockpiles endless supplies, awakens hidden opportunities, and prepares to monopolize the resources of the new world.
As the Villain, Shouldn't There Be a Limit to My Power?
Ron transmigrates into the world of his favorite dark fantasy game-and straight into the body of its first doomed villain. His opening scene? A kidnapped saintess lies beneath him, five hundred holy knights are already surrounding the building, and the game's strongest protagonist is only ten minutes away from chopping him into pieces. The system gives him two choices: 「Violate the future White Saintess, die a villain, and unknowingly save the world. 」 Or... 「Fight fate itself and survive. 」 Ron chooses to live. Using rather improper means to take away a nun's purity-how many years in prison would that earn? Looking at the nun lying before him, Ron couldn't help but seriously ponder that question! "Beautiful Miss Nun, rest assured, I have absolutely no interest in polluting your soul!" Armed with knowledge of every hidden treasure, every secret route, every overpowered exploit, and even an enhancement bug the developers never fixed, he begins rewriting the world's destiny. But surviving his scripted death is only the beginning. The repaired worldline wants him dead. A mysterious "Repairman" is correcting reality. A system unlike anything he expected is pushing him toward impossible conquest missions. And the women destined to become the world's greatest heroes... are beginning to see the infamous villain in a very different light. In a world where fate has already decided everyone's ending, Ron intends to break every rule, exploit every loophole, and turn the worst possible start into the greatest advantage. After all... If the world is just a game, then no one knows how to beat it better than the player who already cleared it.
