What Genevieve didn't know was that the man who entered Greenville County Jail three years ago was not the same man who had just walked out. While they thought Marcus had lost everything, he had gained something far more terrifying behind those prison walls. . Now, they will learn the cruelest truth of all The person you betray today may become the very person you have to kneel before tomorrow.

In my eyes, you’re no better than a piece of roadside trash!” To Seraphina Monroe, Daniel Leonard was a burden that could be discarded at any time for the sake of the Monroe family's business ambitions and the warm embrace of a wealthy man like Evan Vanguard. However, their arrogance crumbled in an instant the moment the divorce papers were signed. A mysterious Centurion Black Card activated in Daniel’s hand, connecting him to the Financial Reversal System, which granted him instant and unlimited capital! Daniel chose neither to hide nor to pretend to be a lowly servant any longer. With billions of dollars at his fingertips, he immediately shook Wall Street. He purchased the Monroe family's mansion estate, acquired controlling shares in their allies' companies, and stood as an equal partner beside New York’s Business Goddess, Cheryl Cole Ashford. From this moment on, the Dragon’s financial revenge began. One by one, supply chains were cut off, partnership contracts were unilaterally terminated, and the stock market was manipulated until his enemies crawled across the floor begging for mercy.

The Frost is coming. But my warehouse is already full. The world ended not with a bang, but with a sudden, catastrophic drop to minus sixty degrees Celsius. Atmospheric ash blocked the sun, burying civilization under a white desert of ice. In the freezing concrete tomb of an abandoned subway station, college student Alex Ryder is down to his last two protein bars—barely enough to keep his heart beating for forty-eight hours. But when Alex gives his remaining food to a dying child and the med student looking after him, reality glitches. [Gift Confirmed: Protein Bar x 2 → Elena Vance] [Multiplier Triggered: 187x] [Reward: Military-Grade MREs x 374] The rules of the apocalypse have just been rewritten. For Alex, survival is no longer about looting or killing for scraps—it’s about giving. Hand over a rusted pocket knife? The system returns a crate of fifty high-carbon tactical machetes. Gift a cup of dirty oil? It multiplies into barrels of high-grade aviation fuel, restarting the subway’s dead generators. While the rest of the wasteland is chewing on frozen leather and shivering in the dark, Alex is turning his subway station into a high-tech, fully powered underground paradise. But warm air and the scent of hot food attract wolves. As brutal warlords and hyper-advanced remnants of the old world elite close in, Alex must expand his territory, unlock new "connection slots" with elite survivors, and build an unstoppable military-industrial complex.

Their mission is to protect the people of Thai Binh Hamlet against the formidable Magical Force from outside Dan Xa citadel, day and night. Remember the old years when the Fairy Master - Chu Su Co led Thien Vuong Van Tu to confront the Demon King Evil Sea and his encirclement.

Also because the power of the Demon King was too strong, Thien Vuong Van Tu failed to retreat to Thien Son mountain to entrench.

“The Aura chose him. The System changed him.” The Aura arrived without warning. Draven Ashford was stacking canned peaches in a dusty Cleveland supermarket, humming off-key just to fill the silence. “Another thrilling night,” he muttered.

The lights flickered. “What is that?” Draven breathed. Before he could move, the green wave slammed into him. The store went dark then everything turned bright green. “This… can’t be real,” he whispered. That moment became Day Zero. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Three months later, cities were covered in glowing vines, strange plants, and constant green mist.
