After his death, he found himself in the body of an insignificant NPC in the game “God's Apocalypse.” This NPC was doomed to die early in the game, filling William with dread because he knew he had only three months to live.The game world of “God's Apocalypse” was rich with many different fantasy races, from elves to dwarves, each offering unique opportunities for him to make use of, as well as challenges to home oneself.William was terrified because he had the knowledge of the game's future but lacked the power to change his fate.However, he was not without options. He retained his game panel and the unique talent “[Jack of All Trades],” which allowed him to learn skills from various professions.William realized that when the game's beta opened, players would arrive. As an NPC, he could assign quests to them and use his knowledge of the game's future to manipulate them to do his bidding.He began to leverage the abilities of the players to alter his fate and grow stronger.William made alliances with various races, gaining their trust and learning their secrets. This enabled him to transcend the boundaries of his initial condition and steadily increase his power.As William's power grew, players in the game started to complain: “This boss is impossibly strong and keeps getting stronger, we demand a nerf!” They were frustrated by his rapid progression and the unique challenges he posed.In contrast, the elves venerated him: “Lord William is the ultimate chosen one, bringing an unparalleled peace to our realm.” They saw him as a savior who brought stability and hope.The mages revered him as well: “He is the trailblazer of magic, our protector. His name, William Cain, is synonymous with the god of the arcane.” They admired his innovative approach to magic and his role in advancing their knowledge.When asked how he managed to achieve such feats, William simply responded, “Knowledge is power, and it's the one thing I don't lack.”

Elia is a poor university student until the night she’s taken to the world of the Anima—ruled by humans whose ancient hearts pulse with the blood of animals. There she’s forced into a battle to the death. But when Elia survives, and refuses to kill her final opponent, the King must either kill Elia himself, or take her as his mate.

Reth, the brutal King of the Beasts with the blood of lions, shocks everyone when he chooses the weak, human Elia to become his Queen. He promises her every comfort of his wealth and position—but he is clear: She will not warm his bed. He chose her to defeat those that were trying to corner him into blending his Leonine line with the Wolves.

Elia needs the help of the Anima to become stronger and rule them well. But the vengeful Wolves see only a weak human that brought them shame. As Elia and Reth grow closer, the wolves are determined to destroy her. Will Reth and Elia admit their feelings for each in time to fight for the Kingdom—and their lives—against the villainous wolf-tribe? Or will the wolves kill Elia and steal the throne?

He stalked towards her, chin low so the shadow cast by his hard jaw cut across the thick fur collar of his vest. His hair had fallen over his eyes in the scuffle, so he peered at her through it like a lion in the grass. With each step, his graceful, rolling gait reminded her of a predator stalking its prey. Despite the forest floor littered in twigs and leaves, he didn’t make a sound.

“Wh-who are you?” Elia stammered, backing away, her hands up. He met her step for step until she came up hard against the tree behind her—and didn’t stop until he loomed over her, so broad his shoulders and chest made a wall in front of her. She could feel the heat rising off his skin in the cool, night air.

“I am the Leonine King.” His voice was a dark, husky gravel. Behind him a chorus of wheezes, howls, and chirps of agreement rose from the people watching. “And you are?”

“Elia,” she breathed.

“Elia,” he growled, leaning in closer, bringing with him the scent of pine and rain and the musk of something distinctly male. “I am Reth.” He said the name with a strange, guttural roll in his throat. “I am King of Beasts. I am Clan Leader, and I am Alpha of WildWood.” Several snarls rose from the crowds behind him then, but he ignored them.

Elia swallowed as he leaned in until the scruff on his jaw rasped her cheek. “I am the King,” he said, “And you will be my mate.”

The forest behind him erupted.

Xin Haikong, an ordinary social animal, unfortunately died suddenly after staying up late again, but was sent to the world of Detective Conan by the system, became a bottle of real wine in the winery, and played a game called “Fraud Game”.
In the game, he needs to play a real wine that cuts black and white, misleads readers with various heroic actions, and packs himself into a red square.
After thorough thinking, he decided to go undercover as a policeman to the Metropolitan Police Department, but he never expected that his promotion speed was really too fast.
He acted too hard, solved major cases repeatedly, and with too deceptive appearance, he became the darling of the media, the representative of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, and the rising star of the Japanese police circle. There have been media predictions that he is likely to become the fastest promoted person in the Japanese police circle.
So, if the black-clothed organization is not destroyed again!

The high-dimensional system released a game in a different world called: “Fraud Game”.
You are a bottle of real wine and a complete black party. You must act according to your personality and complete the main task released by the system.
But at the same time, you have to make readers think that you are the red party, the embodiment of justice. After the main story begins, you will receive feedback from readers in real time, which can be used to adjust the way you play. When the game is approaching the finale, the system will automatically count the psychology of readers in different worlds, and if more than 80% of the people who recognize you as the red side are the game victory; otherwise, the game fails.
You must do all the bad things without tainting the dust, the city is deep but innocent, and you must make all those who have been hurt by you think that you are the salvation and the light that never goes out in the darkness.

1. There are a lot of private settings, please be tolerant
2. The protagonist is Zhenzhenzhenjiu (the face of the irritable old man), the acting emperor (there is a process of improvement).
3. The full-text timeline is closed-loop, and all violations are foreshadowing. There are a lot of timeline issues involved in the plot, and the mode of internal shuttle in the same time and space is adopted. You can refer to the movie “Previous Destination”.
4. No cp is because stupid writers may not be very good at writing emotional lines, and family and friendship are favored by the group.
5. Mother must be HE
6. It is not recommended to skip chapters to read, because the author is an ambush pen madman, and most of the cases are related to each other.
