Pregnant in the Apocalypse: Every Big Shot Wants to Be the Dad

Fei Mu
Josie Quinn is reborn. Between her scumbag ex and upgrading her powers, she decisively ditches her romantic delusions and chooses to get close to others to become stronger! She had planned to fake her death, run away, and live a carefree life, but who knew that upon opening her eyes, she'd find herself "thoughtfully" locked in a future powerhouse's room by Alice Sullivan. In her past life, she was so scared she cowered in a corner. This life, she locks the door from the inside: "Thanks, I'll take this assist!" After Josie Quinn discovers that intimate contact with the powerful can accelerate the awakening of her abilities, she completely lets herself go, activating her "Apocalyptic Player" mode: A kiss from the gentlemanly scoundrel professor, and her powers shoot up! A hug from the deranged mercenary king, and her combat power soars! Even that mysterious, high-level psychic is teased by her until his ears turn red: "Josie Quinn... are you sure this is for upgrading?" Later— Landon Hughes awakens his past life's memories. Realizing he wrongly trusted another and caused the death of the woman he loved most, he kneels and begs for forgiveness with reddened eyes: "Cece, I was wrong, please give me one more chance..." Before Josie Quinn can even speak, several powerhouses behind her sneer in unison. Landon Hughes is sent flying with a kick. A certain mercenary leisurely wipes his hands: "Crematorium? I'll scatter your ashes for you." Later still, Alice Sullivan cries her eyes out: "Josie, I shouldn't have harmed you back then..." Josie Quinn hands her a script with a beaming smile: "Don't worry, I've arranged your center-stage zombie role for you~" #TheFakeDeath, TheRealThrillIs #AQuickCuddleIsNice, ButConstantCuddlesAreNicer #CremateTheEx?

I Was Marked By The System's Arbiter

Lin Yue has never been afraid of being alone. At twenty-four, he has already lived through more than most people ever will—not in grand, tragic ways, but in quiet, suffocating ones. Growing up as an orphan passed between cold institutions and indifferent guardians, he learned early that attachment leads to pain. By adulthood, he lives a detached, monotonous life, working night shifts and avoiding unnecessary human connections. To him, living is simply continuing. Everything changes on a rain-soaked night when he returns to his apartment. The hallway feels wrong—too long, too silent. Then, a voice calls his name from behind. Calmly, without hesitation, Lin Yue ignores it and keeps walking. That single decision triggers something unseen. When he reaches his door, the number has changed to “404.” The moment he steps inside, reality fractures. Lin Yue is pulled into a game called the Flow, a system of endless horror instances where players must survive deadly scenarios governed by obscure and shifting rules. Failure means erasure. Survival means being dragged into the next nightmare. Unlike other players, Lin Yue adapts quickly, relying on observation, emotional detachment, and his ability to remain calm under pressure. But something is wrong. Despite breaking rules and defying logic, Lin Yue is never punished by the System. Instead, he is marked—singled out by an unknown force. His actions begin to distort the behavior of instances, as if the world itself cannot fully process him. That is when he notices him. Gu Yanchen, known as the Arbiter, is a being feared by all players—an enforcer of the System who exists to maintain order and eliminate anomalies. Cold, precise, and seemingly inhuman, he should have killed Lin Yue the moment he deviated from the rules. Yet he doesn’t. Instead, Gu Yanchen watches. As their paths intertwine, Lin Yue is forced to confront something more terrifying than death—connection. Gu Yanchen, who should be nothing more than a mechanism of judgment, begins to act with intention, even obsession. Faced with this impossible choice, the Arbiter hesitates—for the first time. That hesitation fractures the system itself. Rules collapse, instances distort, and the Flow begins to unravel. In a world where everything is designed to erase humanity… What happens when two people refuse to let go? “The System wants me dead. But its Arbiter won’t allow it.”
