    Author : 周果子的肺 Associated Names : 末世後被前男友救了 Translator: Afei-transmtl Link: https://afeitransmtl.blogspot.com/2025/03/when-i-become-heir-of-evil-god.html Synopsis: Cui Xisheng had chased Meng Jiangtian for three years, sharing the most intimate moments for just as long. He thought they had been in a relationship for three years. But on the day Meng Jiangtian's white moonlight ex-girlfriend returned from abroad, he left without hesitation. That was when Cui Xisheng realized he had only ever been a "regular friend" whom Meng Jiangtian called upon at will. Heartbroken, Cui Xisheng ate three large bowls of food in one go, only to end up vomiting so badly that he was rushed to the hospital. When the doctor congratulated him on being one month pregnant, Cui Xisheng nearly got into a fight with them. After all, he was a man-a pure-blooded man. Yet, as someone who studied traditional Chinese medicine, Cui Xisheng ran multiple self-checks, all of which confirmed the impossible: he was indeed pregnant. There was only one possible father-Meng Jiangtian. But Cui Xisheng chose not to tell him. Who needed whom, anyway? That belief was shattered a month later when the apocalypse suddenly struck. As an ordinary person without awakened abilities, survival became nearly impossible for Cui Xisheng. When he was on the verge of being bitten by a zombie, he instinctively shielded his two-month-old belly. But the expected pain never came. When Cui Xisheng opened his eyes, he found himself staring at Meng Jiangtian's cold, indifferent face once again. At that moment, he wasn't sure whether to feel relieved or devastated.

    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.

    Sergeant Major Avery Junior Johnson didn't plan on surviving the Ark. One second he was looking out at a burning ringworld, and the next he was waking up on freezing Russian soil in full ODST gear, staring at a floating, sarcastic blue eye in a world overrun by aliens with magic powers. Welcome to the Last City. The Guardians have Void Light, Golden Guns, and centuries of mystic tradition. Johnson has a beat-up M6D Magnum, a Spartan Laser, a cigar that refuses to go out, and a lifetime of stubborn Marine pragmatism. When the cigar-smoking dinosaur collides with Ikora Rey-the brilliant, terrifying, and centuries-old Warlock Vanguard-the resulting culture clash sparks an slow-burn romance built on shared battlefields, tactical debates, and late-night talks under the Traveler. Aliens, light-bearers, and a Sergeant Major who refuses to stay dead. Let's see how the Darkness likes this.

    Inspired by sonic exe fan works and undertale. the sequel to Tristentales: love ladies and lunacy and introduction book for zerthverse my grimdark oc verse i made, which focuses a lot on zerth, planet of zerthlings, ailen gods who work a lot like sonic exe entities but with major twists. warning and notice: this because it's much like sonic exe fan work or dark undertale fic this is 13+ but people from those fandoms this is for you. theres simliar mechanics from there that's in here a LOT later on. LEGACY version means this is cut any lore I straight up tell you in a03 classic version to help you understand the story before I start. legacy version here skips all that and you have to decide the lore and story by yourself. look at the ocs dialogue and actions and references. it'll help but they may not always be the unbiased lore. so stay here if you want a more smooth but blinder story. now about the story: Zerth has never been governed. It has only ever been survived. A planet twice the size of Earth, home to 10 trillion beings who reality-warp as naturally as they breathe,Zerth has spent eons being exactly what it is. Chaotic. Spectacular. Catastrophically alive. The Zerthlings who built this world are not evil in any way that can be reasoned with or reformed away. They are a force. The galaxy learned this the hard way when the Transdimensional Coalition of Intergalactic Allies - every species that had spent eons carefully not looking at their neighbor - finally looked. They organized. They fought. They did everything right. Now it is 2060. The war is over. The Triangle - Tristen, Zana, and Wixy - have been made official. A jester sits a throne. A Feralling matriarch rules the Wildlands. And 10 trillion beings are living on top of each other in a world that has never once asked whether it could handle this many of them.

    ???: ''To anyone listening who has not been infected, this is a message from the Environmental Logistics & Solutions Enterprise. As you are keenly aware, our dear Earth has seen better days before the Great Desertification. And to make matters even more dire, our own attempt at combating it has turned against us. This planet is beyond our control, and beyond our help. Which is why we have taken to the stars for a fresh new start.'' ''By the time you've received this -- we, among the rest of humanity's remnants, have set a course for the identified exoplanet Si-[**static**] confirmed to support life. As for you and anyone else unfortunate enough to've been left behind, our organization has left a parting gift to help mitigate this global ordeal. And so, we ask that you be well-advised.'' ''If you happen to come across any carrier of the Absolute Zero virus, direct skin contact is to be avoided at all cost. It cannot be treated, and despite our best efforts, there is no known cure. So in terms of safety precautions, long-ranged heat-based weaponry is highly recommended; Flame throwers, explosives, lasers, etc. But keep in mind that they can only slow them down, not kill them outright. The cold from within will not allow that.'' ''Furthermore, hiding from plain sight is not a viable option. They will know where you are. Not by your tracks, but by-[***static***]-atter-[***static***]-verall survival strategy is to stay as far away from the carrier as possible -- and allow our trusted St. Helio units to intervene. Rest assured, they will keep them subdued. And if all goes according to plan, the virus we created will spread no further.'' ''Those of you who remain here have our deepest apologies. As well as our sincerest hope that you may persevere, just as human life has done since the very beginning. On behalf of ELSE, I bid you goodbye, good luck, and Godspeed. This world rests in your hands now.'' [*****static*****] Joleen Adrieau: ''... ... ...''

    The world didn't end with a bang of nuclear fire; it ended with a wet, ravenous moan. In the flooded, rain-soaked ruins of Pasig City, humanity is trapped between two nightmares. There are the "Afflicted"-mindless, flesh-eating hordes of the undead-and the "Kin"-ancient, intelligent vampires who have stepped out of the shadows to claim the wasteland. Elias "Cypher" Vance is a ghost of a man. Betrayed and abandoned by his own special ops unit after a deadly bite, he only survives thanks to the weaponized military nanites in his cybernetic arm. Now, he wanders the apocalypse as a cynical, hardened scavenger who trusts no one. His solitary death march is interrupted when he discovers a caged lab rescue named Trixie. Trixie isn't just a thirty-pound beagle; she possesses powerful telepathic abilities and carries the only known immunity to the plague. Bound together by shared trauma and a psionic link, the brooding cyborg and his innocent hound must navigate a brutal world. Hunted by the infected, ruthless human scavengers, and an ancient vampire who wants Trixie's blood, they embark on a desperate journey to a legendary safe zone called Havenwood. He has the armor. She is the radar. Together, they are the only hope left in a dead world. But in a landscape where every shadow hides a monster, will Elias's titanium fist and Trixie's psychic warnings be enough to survive the immune dawn?
