When the storm struck, they chose Kogan as a sacrifice to save their city... but he found himself in an unknown world, surrounded by strangers who knew nothing of their fate. In a land teeming with enigmatic entities and lurking dangers, Kogan will soon realize that his survival was no miracle, but the beginning of a harrowing trial. Will he find a way to escape, or is this place the grave that was destined for him all along?

Blurp:

What kind of husband punishes his wife by spanking her ass? An insane and sadistic husband!

“How long are you going to punish me?!”

“I’m done with your punishment a while ago.”

Qiao Anxia jerked in a fury and immediately rose to her feet while tidying up her one-piece dress.

Her hands touched her buttocks without realizing it, feeling the heat from the man’s punishment. She didn’t know if this burning feeling was from Richard’s unpainful spanking or for another reason...

How she wished she could kill this man!

Deep below the earth's surface, a mystifying subterranean seascape lurks, an archipelago bathed in inky blackness where suspense and horror hold court. Here lie strange islands and even stranger monsters, far beyond the realms of human imagination. In this domain, mankind is far from dominant; instead, madness and death rule supreme.

Pleading for mercy from the unknown creatures of the deep only leads to a slow, tortured existence. The trapped survivors gradually distort, losing what made them human, both physically and mentally, to the gloom as they remain trapped in this eternal obscurity. Their only hope? A perilous expedition into uncharted sea territories.

Fueled by determination, Charles embark on this daunting voyage aboard his steamship, aiming to reclaim humanity's past glory. Together with his crew, they sought a way out of this hidden sea world, a path back to the sunlit world above, where humans once stood tall.

=========================================

I read a few comments from Chinese readers that compared this novel with Lord of Mysteries because of similar elements: Lovecraftian, western fantasy, first industrial revolution, and steampunk. However, I have yet to finish reading Lord of Mysteries to do any actual comparison, but I do think those who have enjoyed that novel would enjoy this as well. Also, the author of LotM, Cuttlefish That Loves Diving, also did a shout-out for this novel, so I guess he approves of it too?

Dear readers! Without any ads, maybe you will prefer .

Traveling through the world of pirates, becoming Luffy, and possessing cheats in teaching space, it is natural to make changes.

When Chambord landed on the island, the pacifist, the general Huang Yuan, appeared, and all the supernovas fell into despair except the hat group.

Seeing Zoro sweeping the world with a single sword, Sanji the Demon Kazekaku, and Luffy blasting away the oracle with his four-speed karma fist gun, the supernovas were stunned.

“Is this a supernova? I’m afraid it’s not the imperial group!”

During the war on the top, the hat regiment descended with the momentum like a royal regiment.

On Ghost Island, Kaido and Big Mom satirized: “Hey, boy, what are you going to become? Say it again in front of us!”

Luffy opened five gears furiously, his fist was as huge as a ghost island! A five-speed Yehuo fist gun! Party Kaido and Big Mom!

Luffy landed, the black stand-up collar cloak fluttered, put on the helmet, and whispered domineeringly:

“I’m Monkey d Luffy, the man who wants to surpass you and become the One Piece!”
