This Game Is Too Real

Morning Star LL
Author's message to webnovel readers: Hello everyone, I am Morning Star LL, and I am delighted to meet you all in this way! To be honest, I never imagined that my work would have such a large readership outside China. I was absolutely astonished when my editor told me there were thousands of comments. Before this, my writings were primarily aimed at Chinese readers, and it never crossed my mind that my words would one day be translated into another language. I am both humbled and grateful. I am also extremely honored that my recent work, "This Game is Too Real," has been given the opportunity to reach an international audience. Unlike my previous works, this book is probably the one into which I've invested the most time and effort. It is set in a fictional post-apocalyptic wasteland. The story mainly revolves around a once-thriving civilization that collapses overnight after a disaster. The MC from Earth uses a legacy system to disguise the entire world as a game, leading players on a quest to save civilization. It intertwines the fates of the struggling survivors in the wasteland with mutual redemption, while also uncovering the historical truths buried beneath the dust. This book contains several easter eggs with "Scholar's Advanced Technological System," but mentioning them might spoil the story, so I'll leave it to the readers to discover! Moreover, the overall tone of the book remains cheerful and light-hearted. Despite the world being harsh and full of danger, I believe that even in the darkest moments, the warmth and resilience inherent in humanity will continue to shine brightly, emitting the power to dispel the darkness. It would be my greatest honor if my words resonate with you! And the word "resonate" is also a major clue within the story itself. Thank you! by Morning Star LL —————————————— This game is too freaking realistic! Bricklaying, running errands, picking up trash, delivering parcels... At most, the company lets you experience the hardships of a 996 schedule, but here you can feel the extreme bonus of 007. Alright, enough chit-chat, the great Manager has called me to lay some bricks. That Manager said that as long as we work our livers off, he can get a brand-new set of power armor next month, and then he'll take us to explore a brand new map, picking up even more trash in the vast Wasteland! ... After teleporting to the Waste World, Chu Guang discovered that he had unlocked the "shelter system" and could summon creatures called "players" from a parallel world. From that day on, nothing in the Waste World was normal anymore.

Ancient Seal: The City of No Return

After school, sixteen-year-old Aarav Verma was just trying to test a strange feeling—an urge that tugged at him since he received a royal locket from an old woman during a class trip to Jodhpur. So, he climbs to his rooftop… And begins to float. High above the city, past even the clouds, something awakens in him. A strange power. A force inside. And then—the sky opens. A spiral of green energy forms above him, crackling like a storm. Within moments, he's pulled into it… And hurled into a different world. He crashes onto the rooftop of a massive ancient haveli, weathered and majestic—clearly untouched by time for centuries. Jodhpur still surrounds him, but it feels twisted, older. The year is 1880. Inside the haveli, haunting murals stare down from crumbling walls. One painting—of a girl in an Anarkali dress—seems almost alive. A strange red cloth tied on an iron gate pulses with energy, as if warning him to stay away. He runs. But the deeper he goes, the stranger things become. In a shadowed alley, he finds a staircase leading to a tattoo shop—inside, a famous actress sits, trapped in time, selling mysterious ink. She warns him: “You can’t leave this city. Not unless the royal bloodline allows it.” Here, royal families rule like shadow governments, their secrets buried in ancient laws and spiritual power. The people call it Heaven, but Aarav knows—this place is more a curse than paradise. Now, Aarav must uncover the secret of the locket, the painting, and his own powers before he’s trapped forever in a city that remembers everything—and lets no one go.

Cultivation starts with picking up attributes

Tian Shen was your average unordinary guy—living a monotonous life. One day, fate (or rather, Truck-kun) decided to grant his wish… by sending him flying into another world at 120 km/h. When he woke up again, he found himself in the body of an outer disciple of the Beast Taming Sect. His talent? Nonexistent. His reputation? Of a molester’s. Just when he thought he was doomed to be cannon fodder, a golden screen appeared before him. 『Ding! Congratulations, Host! You have activated the Attribute System.』 『Congrats host, you killed 5th stage of body refining realm cultivator and gained Qi points ×30.』 『Congrats host, you killed 1th stage of Qi refining realm cultivator and gained Luck points ×80.』 『Absorbed white Attribute orb, gained 1-star sword.』 『Absorbed golden Attribute orb, gained divine Artifact.』 Tian Shen: “…Huh?” Armed with his new system, Tian Shen embarks on a ridiculous journey—casually strolling through battlefields to collect fallen attributes, dodging cultivation technique manuals (which drop on his head), and even trolling young masters into fighting just to farm their stats. But as he levels up in the most absurd way possible, he soon realizes… is he cheating too much? Because now, heavenly tribulations, ancient sects, and hidden experts are all eyeing him. Tian Shen: I am favored by the AUTHOR of this book, you lots can't even handle my shoes. *Rumble**Crackle* Again Tian Shen: I-i was just joking, don't take it seriously. **BOOM**
