apocalypse

- Not a translation. - No AI, at any point. Some say death brings peace, eternal rest after a hard lived life... Can't say I agree with that, not when I find myself as the new Champion of a band of well meaning misfits called Sons of Calydon. It isn't all bad really, I got to right some wrongs. Change some things. Save some people. But that's fine by me, I will help New Eridu as long as New Eridu helps the Outer Ring, isn't that right, Mayor? No matter what, I will light a way forward for my family, my friends, my people. For Humanity. I'll get the Good Ending for everyone I can. "Lighter! Stop spacing out trying to look cool and help us load this into Steel Tusk!" "He's young, Lucy, let him brood in peace." "I think he looks cool, right, Burnice?" "Caesar, you always think he looks cool... But if you ask me, he could do with some more Nitro Fuel to spice it up!" Pops, Nick, help me, I don't think I'll survive that long... *** My take on the ZZZ world if you add a well meaning guy as Lighter. It's my first story so don't expect a master piece of story telling. I'm just fed up with the lot of translation and AI slop fanfics in this platform's rankings while good stories stay buried and thought I might as well add a new buried story to the pile. Between Clankers and Translations, I alone am the Fed up One.

THE FOUNDRY PROTOCOL "Try not to die like a bitch this time." That was the last thing the System told me before it rebooted the timeline. I’m Jack Monroe, a construction manager who failed to save the world. In my first life, I died screaming on Day 30, ranked 47th out of 50 warlords, watching my fortress crumble because I cut corners on a concrete wall. Now, I’ve been sent back to Day 1 with a roadmap of the apocalypse carved into my skull and a 30-day countdown to a cosmic Server Wipe. Round Two isn't about heroics. It's about industry. Trapped in the toxic wasteland of East St. Louis, I have to turn a bankrupt chemical plant into an impenetrable Silo. I have to manage a crew of terrified laborers, a mutinous sheriff, and two System entities warring for my soul. The dead don't just walk—they evolve. Shamblers turn into Runners, Runners turn into Mutants, and my neighbors turn into looters. I have a plan. I have a blueprint. I have a shovel. And if you get in the way of my construction schedule, you’re going into the concrete mixer. Build. Harvest. Optimize. Welcome to the Cull. Genre: LitRPG, Post-Apocalyptic, Survival Horror Tags: Kingdom Building, Regression, Anti-Hero, Base Building, Zombie Evolution, Crunch (Stats), Gore, Ruthless Protagonist.

**Multiple POV's*** One minute, Penelope is laying in a hospital bed accepting her fate, and the next she transmigrated into a post-apocalyptic novel. What? The opening scene was a famous one where she drugged the male lead and plotted against him. The male lead hated the original owner and wanted to kill her. First Step: Stay away from the male lead. Second Step: Stay away from the female lead. Easy, right? Wrong. Why are both leads determined to be around me? A/N: Although they are in the apocalypse, this story is mainly about the family. How they survive and keep their morality while humanity is disappearing. It will focus on familial and romantic relationships. Zombies will be apart of it but not a priority.

Second book of RTSSIA Series. Read Book 1 through here: https://www.webnovel.com/book/34280531508761905 --------------- Commander Hans Flemmens is no longer just a survivor. With the Construction Yard deployed and a functioning base established, he now commands an army that does not tire, does not falter, and does not run out of ammunition. But a base is only the beginning. Beyond it lies Grefort City, a hundred-kilometer expanse occupied by millions of infected, with Hives within its streets and more than a few secrets hidden within. As Hans pushes farther into the city, captures Strategic Facilities, and expands his army along the way, what else will he uncover inside Grefort, and the cities that lay beyond it?

In a world where reality has been fractured, three dimensions coexist without ever truly touching… until now. A thousand years ago, a meteorite infused with an unknown energy crashed onto Earth, splitting existence into separate worlds connected by unstable forces. Since then, that energy has become the source of power, mutation… and silent conflict. In the dimension of Mel, humans who wield the Cosmic Flux rule a society built on strength. In the shadows, a secret organization known as the Octagon moves to seize control of that power at any cost. Meanwhile, in the human world, hidden experiments are creating soldiers capable of surviving cosmic mutation. And beyond it all… something far older is watching. Dack was never meant to be part of this. After his father disappears and his mother is taken, he discovers that he carries a different kind of energy—an anomaly that doesn’t follow the rules of any world. Years later, he enters an academy in Mel, learning to control the Cosmic Flux with one goal in mind: to become strong enough to find his mother. But during a mission on the Meteorite Island, everything changes. Facing a creature born from chaos, Dack unleashes a power he cannot control… and tears open a breach between dimensions. A mistake. A signal A point of no return. As creatures awaken, conflicts escalate, and the boundaries between worlds begin to collapse, one truth becomes clear: This energy was never meant to remain on Earth. And those who created it… are coming back to reclaim it.

His only possession? A Transmutation Tablet—an artifact far beyond anything the game should contain. Moments later, a system message pops up: [You have joined the Interdimensional Transmigrator Group Chat.] Now connected to an infinite multiverse of travelers—from worlds like Naruto, One Piece, Warhammer 40K, and even Terraria—Ian gains access to shared resources, knowledge, and chaos from across fiction, film, and games alike. His Transmutation Tablet isn’t ordinary—it has no EMC limit, can absorb interdimensional energy, and unlock new mods by devouring matter from other worlds. With it, Ian can turn anything into anything—fuel, food, armor, or even life itself. Armed with infinite resources in one hand and absolute creative power in the other, Ian begins transforming his lonely Skyblock into an empire of monsters, villagers, witches, and heroes, recruiting allies from every corner of the multiverse. From the Frozen Apocalypse to Slasher World, from Train to Busan to the realms of anime and legends, Ian’s journey becomes one of endless expansion—crafting, trading, and fighting his way toward godhood.

Chen Xiaoyun, an orphan from Guangzhou, China, once met a girl who looked remarkably like him. Before he could learn more about her, a deadly virus was unleashed around the globe. Humans turned into creatures straight out of video games and movies, and zombies and mutants roamed the streets with no one to stop them. From tanks to jockeys to even invisible zombies and mutated dogs. The mutations are just endless. "Why is there a zombie apocalypse just as I find my family? And why can I suddenly create things from thin air?" Will Xiaoyun survive the chaos with the new people he meets along the way? Will he use his newfound abilities to bring peace to a devastated world? Or perhaps he will just take another nap in the bed like a lazy pig—— "Shut up. How am I supposed to do anything when you keep throwing women at me?" ____________ Author's note: There is no NTR or Yuri unless you consider a threesome as Yuri, in which case I have nothing for you.

Iris never finished the novel. She died before she could. When she opens her eyes again, she finds herself inside that same story… as a background character destined for a tragic end. An extra. In the original plot, Iris Hale was framed, abandoned, and her death dragged her entire family into ruin. One by one, they all fell. But this time, Iris refuses to follow the script. She saves her brother. She protects her family. She changes everything. And that’s when things start to go wrong. The story she remembers begins to unravel. Events happen too early. The world grows more dangerous. And then, something appears that was never supposed to exist. A global transmigration. Now, trapped in a reality that no longer follows the novel, Iris has lost her only advantage. Because the future she knew… no longer exists.

A blood moon hanging in the sky, the Demon Realm invades and transforms humans into zombies. Wen Yu finds himself reborn back to 2017, the beginning of the apocalypse. "Honey, what's wrong with you? Stop biting me! AH! AH—!" But this time, no longer a weak warrior, he becomes a Soul Master who can kill zombies by cooperating with Soul Beasts. "Combat Form: The Soul Beast undergoes Union with the Soul Master, greatly enhancing the Soul Master's combat ability." "So, what heights could I reach in this world, and what role could I play?" "I'm really looking forward to it."

The world’s population has been reduced to less than 500,000, and the only remaining traces of the apocalypse are the Elements–“Elements of Life,” many call them. Jelani is 18, but he’s already left one past behind and now lives as a soldier, fighting for the city of Hoodsale. Beneath the shadow of Mt. Hood, Oregon, he exists, going about his day-to-day life with the least enthusiasm possible. However, when he’s called on a mission to hunt down the criminals of this world–“rebels”–his company is caught off guard and torn to pieces. But Jelani survives, obtains the power of an element, and, with the world on the brink of a second disaster, he resolves to gain strength and make his existence known.

Set in the Shadow Slave world...a time before Sunny was born...this story follows a simple soldier who must survive in a dystopian, apocalyptic landscape where magic and gun warfare collide. In a far-off Quadrant known as North America, a young soldier named Hope is 16 years old when he gets infected by the Nightmare Spell. He passed! But...he feels a bit scammed...? A flaw that makes him fade from people's memories... A cursed attribute that makes him remember everything endlessly in eternal wakefulness... It's as if the Spell is twisting his future and existence into an almost improbable one. All he has ever known his purpose to be was to serve as a simple soldier. Not too powerful. But not so weak either. And maybe, just maybe like some others, become an Awakened. Although he never dreamt of being one. Now that his whole life is compromised after his First Nightmare, his first objective is to survive on his own. But as he tries to escape his fate, his actions seem to lead him further from his goal. He struggles against obstacles that slowly grow bigger and out of proportion. Maybe the Dream Realm and the Real World aren't so different than one may think. Hope's journey involves uncovering secrets and gaining knowledge about his true nature and his new role in the world. Is he fit to be a hero? Could he redefine it? *** Please read the READER DISCLAIMER in Volume 0. This is my spin-off novel of "Shadow Slave" by Guiltythree. But please don't expect the same writing style, setting, and characters, especially the main character. This story reveals more about how people/cities/governments operate after the Spell’s arrival. I always find it interesting how maybe one country handles it fairly, but how others handle it with desperation to the point that you question humanity. There will be easter eggs pointing to the original novel either intentional for the plot or unrelated to it, but all for fun. I am a new author so props to all who bear with me and helps me improve my writing. If it is not for you, please don't leave outright hate comments. Eat wassabi instead if you want pain. Critique and advice would be great too. Cover Art: @ellieaedon I will be posting on RoyalRoad.com and on AO3 for some people's preferences.

Diving into dungeons, slaying monsters, and… filming porn? When the mana apocalypse struck, 15% of humanity awakened supernatural abilities and became the world's new superstars. They conquered dungeons, leveled up, and raked in fame and fortune. Kaiden wasn't one of them. Stuck among the powerless 85%, he was just another broke college student... until a banana peel sent him tumbling into a very unconventional system. One that turns fame into raw power. And nothing on this planet earns fame faster than the content people watch with the door locked.

The beginning of the apocalypse brought chaos and disaster to humanity. It tore away the mask of society and revealed the cruelty hiding beneath. Ivy Ravencroft experienced it all firsthand. Her family was unfair and cruel, and they abused her so badly that she went blind. Her lover died trying to protect her, and she spent the next five years struggling to survive, until she finally died in the apocalypse. But then, Ivy woke up again, reborn in the first year of the apocalypse. At first, she felt hopeless. If only she had returned to a time before the apocalypse, she could have gathered food, weapons, and supplies to survive better. Still, she was grateful for one thing: she had kept her special ability, the power to create safe zones. This time, Ivy made a promise. She would protect her lover, find her real family, and take revenge on everyone who had hurt her. .................................. "Huh? Why is there a bento box lying here?" Ivy asked, confused. "What bento? Are you trying to trick me again?" Silas asked, sadness in his eyes. "This one!" Ivy said, holding up the packaged meal and waving it at him. "What the... where did that come from?" Silas stared at it in shock. Ivy’s eyes widened. She realized something, only she could see these items, and when she picked them up, they became real. "Can… I buy it from you?" Silas asked, unsure. "Of course. But I won't give it to you for free." Ivy smiled like a fox. Silas closed his eyes; he was ready for her to demand something sky-high and said, "Okay. Tell me how many gold bars you want." Ivy smiled and teased, "I don't want gold bars; they are way too cheap. I want one kiss." Silas: Blushing hard. His subordinates: "..." This wave of dog food was too unexpected! ....................................................... With the supplies, picking a superpower and a safe zone superpower, Ivy built her own residential area. She gained Kindness Energy and multiplied supplies with the help of Temporal Storage. While other bases struggled to make a simple house, she used her golden finger to make luxurious buildings and rent them out, becoming the big shot in the apocalypse.

Everyone wants a second chance until they're trapped in an impossible loop. Grey wasn't one to lust after redos. He lived life with his heart on his sleeve and a pep in his step, but the universe had other plans for him, plans that started with a knife in the gut and a survival game show warring alien races used to take the edge off. The good news was that his new Spirit, Prometheus, didn't ask him whether he wanted a redo or not before it yanked his soul back in time and whiplashed it with the worst case of déjà vu he had ever experienced. The bad news was that the producers of this stupid survival game show had for some reason chosen to target him. The robot arms meant to fit his Nexis Suit glitched, and now he couldn't communicate with their damned system. To make matters worse, they were painting him out to be some streaking, perverted madman all because the viewers found it hilarious. No system. No stats. No rewards. He was stuck in this hellscape with the strength of a human and no way to improve. All he could do was die. And die again. And then die again. He'd be damned if he didn't piss on every one of their graves. [Warning. Obscene gesture detected] [This is your first warning. If there is a second—] "FUCK YOU!"

Have you ever read a novel with such a terrible ending that you wished you could change the story and give the characters you loved the happy ending they deserved? ~~~~ I woke up as the protagonist’s younger sister in the massively popular novel Solo Player. Fated to die no matter what path I take, constantly shadowed by my ridiculously overprotective brother — the world’s strongest solo player himself — I should have been helpless. But I won’t go down that easily. I’ll train until I surpass every limit, break free from this predetermined death flag, and rewrite my own ending. All while the Constellations bombard me with sponsorships, gifts, and endless fangirling like I’m some top-tier idol streamer. …What is wrong with these cosmic weirdos?! ~~~~
