    Qin Zhen was born into wealth but raised by the wrong family. When her true identity finally came to light, returning to her biological parents brought her neither love nor acceptance. They continued to favor the daughter who had taken her place, while the family that raised Qin Zhen offered her no reason to stay. Tired of fighting for affection that had never been hers, she severed every tie and chose to build a life of her own. Her freedom had barely begun when countless people were suddenly transported into a deadly island survival game. The system offered to place Qin Zhen near her family. She refused without hesitation. She had already walked away from them in the real world-she had no intention of depending on them now. Qin Zhen arrived on a deserted island with only a storage backpack, a fishing rod, and a crumbling thatched hut. While other players struggled to secure their next meal, she fished for seafood, gathered enchanted fruit, explored hidden realms, and awakened elemental magic. She hunted monsters for equipment, expanded her shelter, and turned every scarce resource into another step toward power. Before long, her weapons were dominating the trading market, her ruined hut had become a sprawling island estate, and two adorable companions had joined her growing domain. No matter how often the rankings changed, Qin Zhen's name remained at the top. Then the game regions merge. Her biological and adoptive families-both desperate and barely surviving-come looking for the daughter they once cast aside. Now they want forgiveness, protection, and a place within everything she has built. But Qin Zhen no longer needs a family that only remembers her when she becomes useful. She closes the gates, blocks every one of them, and turns her attention to the next disaster.

    When a mysterious system drags hundreds of thousands of people worldwide into a deadly ocean‑survival world, Amber Miller wakes on a tiny drifting island with nothing but a leaking hut and a voice in her head explaining the rules: survive, upgrade, adapt - or die for real. Back home, she was barely holding her life together after losing her mum and becoming guardian to her younger brother, Liam. Now she's trapped in a world where monsters roam at night, treasure chests appear at random, and other players can choose to team up... or kill for resources. With only three days of novice protection and no idea where Liam has been placed, she must learn the system fast, gather supplies, and fight to stay alive long enough to find him. Every upgrade matters. Every decision counts. And every player is a potential threat. In a world built on survival of the fittest, she's determined to prove she's not just another random selection - she's someone worth fearing.

Somehow, she opened her eyes to find herself not only alive, but also back when it was three months before the apocalypse. Despite the surprise, she thought about the upcoming disasters and upheavals. First, it was the fog that carried a virus that stayed for a month. Then, global temperatures rose to over 120 degrees, evaporating most of the world's water and melting all the icebergs. After that were level-10 earthquakes, cyclones, tsunamis, permanent eclipse, and avid rain... and that was not all, because after global warming, came global freezing. As temperatures dropped to below negative fifty, the savagery humans displayed was far worse than any imagined horrors like zombies! Knowing what was coming, Du Yue sold off her family property and used the pocket dimension her mother left her to hoard as many resources as possible, so that she could survive the apocalypse. Meat? Grain? Oil? Spices? Weather gear? She bought everything! Steaks, French fries, spaghetti, and canned food must all be stocked up!
