1. Uniqueness and Appeal of the Story (Condensed) 1. Worldbuilding: Historical Grit Meets Supernatural Spectacle Setting: 1930s America/Europe: Blends Great Depression realities (NYC soup kitchens, corrupt Wall Street alchemists) with occult threats. Nazi "Lebensborn" experiments resurrect through cursed artifacts, while vampire clans like Sanctum Sanguinis manipulate London's underworld. Core Innovation: Merges noir detective drama, Lovecraftian cosmic horror, and vampire political epics into a cohesive "dark fantasy" universe. Protagonist Wayne navigates gangster-ruled streets and eldritch rituals with equal pragmatism. 2. Plot Architecture: Layered Mysteries & Explosive Payoffs Opening Hook: A seemingly routine infidelity case unravels into a cult conspiracy marked by glowing cat eyes and radioactive mushroom-induced visions. The mundane detective office becomes a gateway to hidden wars. Key Conflicts: Personal: Wayne’s quest to find his sister Gwen—a victim of 1935 Nazi experiments—while battling his own physical decay (corpse-like stench, stopped pocket watch). Supernatural: Vampire dynasties, hellish legions, and secret societies (Mirror Sect) clash over the "Living Grail," a sentient artifact granting control over reality. Historical: Nazi occultists infiltrate America using gold-skull rituals; Federal Reserve corruption fuels supernatural arms races. Climactic Sequences: Holy Grail War: Wayne’s ragtag Vowbound Cross faction battles vampire hordes in London, with alchemically enhanced revolvers firing self-guided silver bullets. Leviathan Rising: A kaiju-like beast emerges from Liverpool’s waters, countered by undead dragons and Vatican light magic. Twist Ending: Gwen is revealed as a Nazi-made proto-vampire, forcing Wayne to sacrifice himself as a vessel to seal an elder god—leaving moral ambiguity lingering. 3. Characters: Moral Complexity & Jarring Contrasts Wayne (Protagonist): Flawed Antihero: A whiskey-drinking PI masking survivor’s guilt with sarcasm. His fake "model citizen" diary clashes with ruthless tactics (blackmail, radioactive interrogations). Duality: Protects street orphans while exploiting clients, embodying Depression-era moral erosion. Veronica & Wilhelm: Noble Fugitives: Veronica’s aristocratic German past and Wilhelm’s swastika-etched knife hint at dark histories. Posing as a secretary/gardener, they manipulate Wayne’s investigations. Comic Relief: Wilhelm’s mountain-like physique paired with cat-obsessed campiness ("sailor outfits") offsets existential dread. Antagonists: Preacher Jacob: A vampiric zealot who views bloodsucking as divine sacrament, mirroring Wayne’s nihilism. Dr. Isaac: A Nazi eugenicist weaponizing vampirism, blending scientific rigor with monstrous ambition. 4. Narrative Craft: Noir Aesthetics & Pseudoscience Multi-Perspective Storytelling: Wayne’s cynical first-person narration intercuts with newspaper clippings (Jack the Ripper Returns), cult parchments, and Veronica’s encrypted journals to piece together the puzzle. Stylized Language: Gritty metaphors: "Wall Street fog smells of rusted dreams," "Veronica’s hair outshines Coney Island neon." Symbolism: Bulletproof doors adorned with Citizen Kane posters critique hollow American idealism; cash-stuffed Bibles mock religious hypocrisy. Sci-Fantasy Systems: Vampire "sun weakness" explained as uranium radiation side effects. "Eldritch whispers" rationalized as infrasound brainwashing; hell reimagined as a quantum dimension. Weapons: Rune-engraved silver bullets, alchemy-modified revolvers blending mysticism and tech.

Cuando la basura se convierte en un genio: ¡Una palabra: Feroz! ¡Dos palabras: De dos caras! ¡Tres palabras: Demasiado desafiante para el cielo! Ella es la maestra de refinamiento de armamento más destacada. Cruzó a través de una dinastía y se convirtió en una Tercera Joven Señorita públicamente humillada y acosada. ¿Bestias antiguas, demasiado escandalosas? ¡Obedientemente conviértanse en mascotas dóciles, o las haré sopa! ¿Talento de noveno rango, talento raro en mil años? ¡Ella nació con una constitución divina, aplastando a todos los genios! ¿Arma de Grado Profundo de nivel máximo, más allá de lo invaluable? Lo siento, pero el cuenco que usa para alimentar al gato ya está en Grado Dios... ella posee un par de ojos que pueden ver a través de todo, sin embargo, solo hay una cosa a través de la cual no podía ver: ¡él! Meramente exponiendo su sonrisa demoníaca, cierto Lord aflojó ligeramente su cinturón: “¿No puedes ver a través? No te preocupes, puedes mirar lentamente cuando vuelvas a la habitación. Te permitiré inspeccionar meticulosamente de la cabeza a los pies.”

Jiang Fan, ¡lo lamento! Cuando Xu Yining se dio cuenta de que el prometido inútil con el que preferiría morir antes que casarse había tomado a su hermana como esposa y la había transformado en una poderosa emperatriz, se llenó de arrepentimiento. Si pudiera hacerlo todo de nuevo, definitivamente no habría dejado caprichosamente que su hermana se casara en su lugar.

In Japan of 1992, just after the economic bubble burst, society's public safety began to deteriorate. Xu Tianze finds himself transmigrated into the body of a detective named Aoyama Hidenobu, and the moment he opens his eyes, he discovers himself bound up tightly... Entering the new century, a prestigious magazine proclaimed that although Japan has lost a decade since the 90s, they gained a legendary figure like Aoyama Hidenobu. Regarding this, some Japanese nationals expressed: 'Damn it! We'd rather lose another 100 years than have this traitor to our country!' This book is also known as 'This Tokyo is Somewhat Hot.' PS: The protagonist is a rascal, acting with contempt, decisive in killing and fighting, purely for the thrill, not for the faint-hearted.

Xu Zimei found himself reborn, carrying with him all the heaven-shaking cultivation and memories from his previous life. But something was off about the script. Isn’t reincarnation always the protagonist’s theme? However, I was cast as the villain! This is the story of a villain's step-by-step journey to becoming the Demon King. —————————— In an era of great strife, where mystical arts resonated! An elder of the True Martial Holy Sect sat at the Willow Bank River Fishing Platform when suddenly he heard the dragon’s roar. Three thousand carps knocked at the gate of life, transforming into the Measureless Golden Dragon, soaring through the firmament, graceful as a startling swan! There were strongmen who measured the heavens and earth with their strides, monks who sat in meditation in temples for three thousand years, achieving sudden enlightenment—auspicious clouds descended, and all laws of magic cheered in chorus. Blood moons darkened the night, rainbows cut through the daylight. There was a swordsman with a wooden sword on his back who, with a turn and a raise of his hand, shattered thousands of miles of rivers and mountains. In the south of the city, a ragged beggar with a broken willow twig dared to assault the Holy Court of a sect that boasted three emperors.

He protects in silence. She heals with love. After a brutal betrayal and a near-fatal crash, Qin Lian thought her life was over. Instead, she wakes up in a novel—as the fake daughter of the Qin family, forced to swap engagements and marry a rough countryside man with three children. Everyone expects her to suffer. After all, the original host hated her new family and chased after her ex-fiancé, only to meet a miserable end. But, Qin Lian isn’t playing by the script. She accepts the marriage, not out of surrender but because she sees what others don’t. Her husband, cold and distant on the surface, is a loyal and stoic former soldier. The children? Not burdens—but the family she never had. With sharp wit, quiet resilience, and a heart that refuses to break, Qin Lian begins to reshape her fate—turning a discarded life into something extraordinary. So when those who once abandoned her come crawling back—and the ex-fiancé who once scorned her becomes obsessed—Qin Lian doesn’t flinch. Because this time… she’s already won. .....Excerpt......

Mises à jour à 1h GMT+8 __ Issu d'un monde apocalyptique, Xu Feng transmigre dans un monde parallèle où existe un troisième genre. Les cieux ont pris pitié du jeune homme de 19 ans qui mourut alors qu'il venait d'éveiller sa capacité dans son monde d'origine, ainsi il commença une nouvelle vie en tant que ger. Qu'est-ce qu'un ger ? Le troisième genre, un homme qui peut féconder des femmes et être fécondé par des hommes. Il y avait encore plus de surprises qui attendaient Xu Feng. Il n'a pas seulement éveillé une capacité du bois de son monde précédent, mais il a aussi été confronté à un mariage contractuel qu'il ne pouvait refuser dans le nouveau monde. « Porte l'enfant de mon fils, et je m'assurerai que tu vives confortablement pour le reste de ta vie. » « Que tu puisses me donner un fils ou non, cela m'importe peu. Ne t'immisce pas dans mes affaires, et je te promets que tu ne manqueras de rien. » Xu Feng regarda sa "belle-mère", puis se retourna vers son “mari” le "séducteur" avant de poser les yeux sur les champs fertiles et les vastes montagnes. Une paisible vie de fermier en tant que propriétaire terrien avec un jeune maître gâté était préférable à la vie dans un monde post-apocalyptique. Mais Xu Feng était transporté dans un monde avec cultivation, bêtes démoniaques, et secrets cachés, une simple vie agricole pourrait être trop demandée. — [Cultivation, Agriculture, Partenaires multiples/Triple, BL, R-18, Enfant, HE]

In the world of the heavens, there are an elite few in history who transcend the word "genius." They rise through the ranks of cultivation with unparalleled speed, perform feats that defy common sense on a regular basis, and generally educate all who cross their path on just what it means for the difference between two cultivators to be as the difference between heaven and earth.
