Countdown Patterson

Spiritual Qi Resurgence, Gods descending? Continuous disasters, all living beings suffering? What does it have to do with me? I'm just a patient with an incurable disease, who's been given up on treatment and has a countdown to death. Embarking on the path of exorcising demons and annihilating immortals with my crippled body is not for the sake of protecting my family and country, but because the hazardous duty pay is too tempting, especially the compensation... "This Evil Gods profession system is cursed, even if there's smooth progress in the early stages, the practitioners will eventually commit suicide..." "Give me a set." "This Demon Sword poisons its user and has already taken ninety-nine lives..." "Give me two, and also that man-eating demonic helmet, soul-devouring blood claws, get me a set." "This Magic Potion is harmful to heaven and earth..." "Enough talk, I'll take them all!" However, the problem is, why am I still alive after taking on all these high-risk missions, stepping on every risk, and doing every deadly task? 【Congratulations, congratulations! Ranked first among the Top Ten Heroes Who Moved the World...】 "...Heavens, wasn't the average life expectancy in this line of work three and a half years? I've been here for one cycle of three years after another, I'm almost an S-level hunter, the first of the top ten heroes! Why am I still alive? I just want to make an honor sacrifice, scam some compensation! Is that so hard?!"

Kisha Aldens is a normal office worker with average earnings, not until she suddenly sees a system countdown in front of her. Her mind suddenly received a prompt warning about the apocalypse and urged her to integrate with the system to assist her with her survival. "Have I overworked myself again?" She thought while pinching the bridge of her nose. She blinked a few more times but the system interface is still there. Little did she know that this system would be her last lifeline in the upcoming apocalypse where human morals would be the lowest, trust is only a word and betrayal could happen in the blink of an eye. A naive person like her had to learn her lesson the hard way on how to survive and navigate in the zombie-infested world. And the worst part, she had to die 99 times to harden her heart and learn how to read the human heart. How will her 100th time be different from the previous lives, will she survive this time? And will survival be her only problem in the heart of the Apocalypse? No, there was a deeper scheme in play which she has to uncover moving forward.

As he struggles to navigate the shifting reality, Kei must uncover the secret behind this Prison of Time before he runs out of it. But can he escape when the very fabric of time is against him? Time is ticking. Will he break free or be erased forever?

Monsters, meteors, natural disasters. All of them came after the six-day countdown ended. Fortunately, humans are given something to fight back. Or actually to make things much more interesting. They became Players. No one knows who is behind all this. Humans have no other choice but to survive amid this chaos by playing. But Clyde didn't live it like the others. Because he was the only human who had the lowest difficulty in the End Time Game. He plays in Easy Mode, and he already read this kind of thing in web novels. Except, there are no such thing as 'Regressor' in those webnovels. Until he met them. "Wait, I only hit that monster once and it died right away?!" “Whoa, I got an A-grade weapon right away!?” "There are... 4 Regressors?"

MC transmigrating into the body of a Villainous noble of a web novel story he has already read. Bet, you have read these type of stories more than a few. And the premise here is also the same. But what if the villain wasn’t just doomed to die? What if his entire existence was a countdown to something far worse? Lucian Kingston wasn’t just hated—he was cursed, both in the story and in reality. A walking tragedy whose fate wasn’t just to be killed by the protagonist, but to become a catalyst for the chaos that would consume the world. And now, I’m him. I know how the story ends. I know which paths lead to ruin. I know who lives and who dies. But knowledge alone isn’t enough to change fate. Because the moment I woke up in this body, the clock had already started ticking. And if I don’t find a way to escape this destiny—if I don’t outplay the world itself—then I won’t just die. I’ll be erased.

In the slums of Sylvaine Macarena, beneath the shadows of a floating empire, lies Special Proctor Gildas—a brutal academy where the brightest minds are forged into weapons for Empyrean Zielle, the sky world that rules them all. Hanasta, a forgotten prodigy, becomes the school’s pariah. But as whispers of his true nature surface, so does an ancient force—older than the stars, ready to burn the world to ash. He is no hero. He is no victim. He is the calamity. The countdown to humanity's final starfall has begun.

"You shouldn’t be alive." Kael’s voice was quiet, but the weight behind it sent a chill down Sienna’s spine. His silver eyes locked onto hers, searching—no, demanding—answers she didn’t have. She crossed her arms, lifting her chin. “And yet… here I am.” Sienna Blackwood has spent her whole life on the fringes, a ghost in her own pack. Born under the cursed Blood Moon, unable to shift, unwanted and barely tolerated. She thought she knew her place—until the night she was attacked. Until the night she should have died. But she didn’t. And now, she’s standing before Alpha Kael Voss, a man who doesn’t believe in fate, yet is staring at her like she just shattered his entire world. The High Council calls her an abomination, a threat that needs to be eliminated. Kael should agree—he’s never been one to disobey the law. Except something about Sienna doesn’t make sense. And the more he tries to ignore it, the more the truth claws its way to the surface. A prophecy was buried. A past was erased. And the moment Sienna took her first breath, the countdown to war began. She wasn’t supposed to survive. She wasn’t supposed to exist. But the forsaken always find a way to rise.

I never asked to be a part of werewolf society - or this world. Every day that passes, the mating bond between my protector and I threatens to occur, once and for all. To consume me entirely... and lock my path with this world on the brink, even when I still think of home. ⧖ ⧖ ⧖ One minute I was Citra Lomdi - a Princess to a kingdom of silk and secrets in a whole other place. There, I was a *magnificent* Fox shifter... maneuvering in the gilded cage that was my life. The next thing I knew... I was trapped in the body of a she-werewolf being rejected by her mate. A man that wanted the original owner, Helene Duskpaw, to accept the rejection of the mate bond so badly that he'd be easily convinced to kill me. He did *almost* seem to be trying! But my problems didn't end there. An 'Apocalypse System' has chosen me and a countdown timer reminds me whenever I look that fate can be measured. That there might be a point to my arrival here. A fierce & brilliant CEO of a supernatural society tech empire has their sights on me, too. The Alpha of the Rimecoat Pack that is quite annoyingly... as sexy as she is powerful. This Kyrie Voss also seems to believe she is my fated mate. Silly wolf superstitions. Whether that is true or not, isn't really important! I'm caught in between a cold-snap future and a hot-love pursuit... but I am Citra Lomdi and I will not be tamed. Not by the wolf within me I share this body with, the rogues that see me unmarked, or the Alpha that can set my blood on fire with her amazing restraint. The only problem is: Helene was pregnant before she died. So now, I am too.

-- WSA 2025 Entry -- “Five… Four… Three… Two… One…” As the countdown towards the new year went on to the last second, Miles looked up to the sky, just as everybody else did. In the middle of the crowded street, Miles for once felt like he belonged. Being a teenage gamer, living with his parents, and trying to build a life as a streamer, he did not feel like leaving his room every day. But there, in the middle of that crowded street, with everyone around him paying attention to the sky, the countdown on the digital billboard, and mostly anything else but him., Miles felt like a ghost. A welcomed ghost, but a ghost, after all. With a smile on his unseen face, he looked up as the countdown reached one, and everybody sang in unison. ‘HAPPY NEW YEAR!” But Miles’ eyes widened as he watched in utter horror, and curiosity, even, hovering above him, a holographic screen with a few lines of text written in it. All around him, although he did not pay much attention to it, a few other people seemed to experience the same situation.

Ten years ago, the world was captivated by a groundbreaking VR MMORPG, a fully immersive experience that allowed players to step into the shoes of legendary heroes in a realm of magic and wonder. For a decade, they built their lives, forged their identities, and left their marks on what they thought was just a game. But when the servers shut down, the truth shattered everything. The game world wasn’t just a virtual reality, it was a fabricated timeline, a fragile imitation of the true Magic world . And now, the countdown has begun. The players, ripped from their lives on Earth and the simulation, find themselves in the Magic World, ten years younger but burdened with all the memories of the game and their old lives. Their in-game personas, once vibrant and driven by purpose, are now hollow shells, unable to act on their own. Even worse, Earth’s timeline fragile and unprotected has been paused, and its collapse is inevitable. To prevent disaster, the 10 Originals, the most renowned players of the game, must rise once more. But this time, there are no systems to guide them, no respawns, and no safety nets. The high realm is real, its dangers far deadlier than any raid boss. And as the countdown ticks away, inconsistencies between the worlds begin to unravel reality itself. Thrown into a world they don’t fully understand, hunted by their own past mistakes, and racing against time to stop the collapse of Earth’s timeline, the Originals must uncover the secrets of the game’s creation and find a way to stabilize the Magic World. The clock is ticking, and the fate of three worlds rests on their shoulders. Will the Originals be able to fix the chaos they caused, or will everything they fought for crumble into nothingness?

The fallen ones, strange monsters that showed up on earth with the sole purpose of destroying everything and ruling over humans.

A hundred years passed and Rashin finds himself alive in the future. It turned out he was saved by a stray angel, and was granted a powerful energy that allowed him to stand on equal footing with the monsters that once wanted to take over earth. In his new future, the world has been restored to what it ones was, a huge shield was placed around the world to keep the Hakiaas out. Heroes were summoned to defend the world against these monsters during the Countdown, while the monsters could not be killed or harmed, they could still be sent back to their world. Or at least, until Rashin arrived. [Blacksmith System activated. Welcome host.] [Initializing core functions...

Not just that, he can also turn every weapon he makes into beautiful overpowered maidens capable of killing the Hakiaas aka fallen ones.

Armed only with a mysterious spatial ability that allows him to stash treasures and vanish from danger, Teng must navigate a world where the weak are devoured and the strong write their own laws.

In a world where magic grows stronger only through battle and bloodshed, sorcerers live by one rule: keep killing, or be forgotten. Kael Ardyn was once nothing—a weak noble-born mage with a Flickerfire Spell so pathetic that even peasants mocked him. His family was exiled, his lands stolen, his future erased. Left for dead by his own allies, he had no hope… until he stumbled upon the Killstreak Grimoire. Now, his magic follows a terrifying new law: every consecutive kill multiplies his power, evolving his spells into apocalyptic forces. But if he stops—even for a moment—his power resets to nothing. To survive, he must chain his kills endlessly, each battle pushing him further into madness. As Kael rises, so do his enemies. The Empire’s Mage Guild brands him a rogue. The legendary Unbreakable Duke—the warlord who destroyed his family—returns to hunt him down. And lurking in the shadows, the Killstreak Tyrant, the first and strongest to ever wield this power, awakens to reclaim his throne. Can Kael master the art of endless slaughter before his enemies erase him? Or will he become another forgotten failure in the long, bloody history of Killstreak Sorcerers? The countdown has begun. His timer is ticking. And if he stops killing… he dies.

A timer measuring the years of life its owner has left. And when it hits zero? No one survives. But the phone isn’t just a death sentence, it’s power. Anything Mykal searches for on its browser can be pulled into reality. Money, weapons, even supernatural artifacts. But power like this doesn’t go unnoticed. The black market, the government, and entities beyond human understanding want it and they’ll do anything to take it. As Mykal is forced into a deadly game of survival, he must unravel the true purpose of the phone before his own countdown runs out. Because once it does… he won’t just lose his life, he might lose his very existence.
