[Cub Raising + Fluffy + Farming + Wasteland Reconstruction]

Su Ci never expected that after sleeping for a hundred thousand years, the entire world would have completely changed when he woke up. The sky was red, the earth was cracked, and the once picturesque world, perfect for sleeping, had become full of dangers. And the most, most, most absurd thing was that he himself had changed. He had become a zookeeper at a cub-raising institute? The zookeeper's job description included: feeding three meals daily, regular cleaning, and writing growth records for each cub... Su Ci glanced at it and casually tossed the employee manual aside. Who needs all that trouble?

Rumor has it that on Prison Star, there's a cub-raising institute where a group of little monsters are kept. Their parents were all interstellar criminals who, after being apprehended, left behind these unsupervised cubs with powerful beast bloodlines. They could only be imprisoned on Prison Star, never to leave for life. They were ferocious and violent, constantly causing all sorts of ruckuses, giving every zookeeper immense headaches, and hardly anyone lasted through their three-month probationary period.

One day, a new zookeeper arrived at the institute. Zookeeper Su was handsome and exquisite, with a slender figure; he looked like he couldn't take a hit, so everyone thought he wouldn't last long, probably resigning before even a month was up. The cubs, too, carried on as usual, until—they woke Zookeeper Su up in the middle of the night. No one knew what happened that night. But from then on, the little monsters of Prison Star underwent earth-shattering changes. They became well-behaved and obedient, regularly fed the zookeeper, cleaned the institute daily, wrote their own growth diaries at night, went to bed on time, and dared not make another sound... Supervisor: "This is truly a miracle!" Little Monsters 1-n: "Wuwu, his morning grumpiness is so scary QAQ"

Pairing: Gluttonous, sleepy, super-grumpy big boss Uke x Quiet, well-behaved, secretly-dark, amnesiac, turned-small Seme.

The small store restarts!!!

Ding! Salty Xiaoyu Hotel successfully opened. Ding! Unlimited self-service convenience store successfully opened. Ding! The mall and food street are fully open.

After an unexpected sudden death, she bound to a management system and holds infinite supplies in her hands.

At the entrance of her own hotel, Lin Yanan held a large pig's trotter, her mouth greasy from eating. Passersby A, B, C, and D silently clutched the few coins in their pockets, shouted "Let's work!", and went wild, slaughtering among the hordes of mutated beasts.

Lin Yanan: "It seems today's turnover will exceed expectations again; what a sweet burden!" System: "..." You're clearly very proud, aren't you!

Chen Wangping, who transmigrated to the wasteland, obtained a wasteland farming game system that integrated elements from Factorio, Dyson Sphere Program, and Stardew Valley. As long as he accumulates enough resources, he can craft a series of superhuman items according to blueprints!

Facing this desolate wasteland world where knowledge is scarce, technology has regressed, and superpowers are emerging, Chen Wangping has only one wish: to hoard! As long as I hoard enough materials! There's nothing I can't create!

Xie Xuan transmigrated to a wasteland world over a hundred years later.

Marine fungi, initially affected by nuclear-contaminated water, were brought back to land by a tsunami, and a spore infection crisis swept across the globe. Humanity established a confederate government and built high walls.

Immediately after transmigrating, Xie Xuan was unfortunately caught in a parasitic domain, gaining the "golden finger" system indispensable for transmigration, and happily acquired a debt of 208,000.

To clear her debt, Xie Xuan joined the Ecology Bureau to start foraging for fungi.

Half a month after transmigrating, Xie Xuan unexpectedly received a notebook from the original owner. She discovered that the original owner suffered from regular memory loss, and she had at most another month and a half until her next episode of amnesia.

The rainy season is when fungi grow fastest, and they can grow in all sorts of places, for example...

She was trapped in a transparent cage, and outside the cage, a gigantic cat-person covered in fungi was observing her.

She boarded a light rail train that would never start, and the entire carriage had transformed into a fungi forest.

...

Xie Xuan's fungi foraging techniques became increasingly skilled, but the mysteries surrounding her origins grew.

It seemed... she might not actually be human?

Natural disasters were incessant. Ning Xia had survived alone for six years and finally decided to return to her old home in Qianzhou to start anew. Unexpectedly, she rescued two skinny little ones on the way. The three siblings, a sister and two brothers, traveled a long distance and finally settled down in Qingniaozhou.

Planting vegetables, storing water, to survive the scorching sun month! Hunting, warding off cold, to survive the severe cold month!

Relying on her excellent cooking skills, Ning Xia befriended a group of soldier brothers who helped with hunting and farming. Life got better day by day, and her long-lost lover also returned to her side. Surrounded by friends and with her children growing up healthy, Ning Xia happily embraced her lover's slender waist, smiling.

The mother planet exploded, and humanity escaped into space aboard a star-spanning train.

As the train's conductor, Chen An transports passengers for interstellar survival, forging his own unique "Fuyao" civilization.

Under his command, the passengers sweep through the stars and seas like locusts, wreaking havoc.

Developing technology, plundering races, destroying empires, and trampling civilizations.

All races tremble in the face of guns and cannons, and the starry sky crumbles into dust beneath the train.

As the train speeds onward, the vast, mysterious, and tumultuous cosmos is torn open layer by layer.

Zhu Ning, who was leading the charge against zombies in the apocalypse, transmigrated. This time, she crossed into a wasteland world.

In this world, eighty percent of the land is polluted. Humans are divided into five ranks, and she became a fifth-class citizen, the lowest rank, a "defective product" unlucky enough to be at the bottom.

Penniless, Zhu Ning had no choice but to become a cleaner, sweeping trash. She heard that sweeping trash in the wasteland world offered good pay and little trouble, practically a dream job.

However... how was this "sweeping trash" different from what she understood? Entering the vanished Line 1, she encountered a fish-headed merman carrying a briefcase. Entering a trending hotpot restaurant, she found that this hotpot restaurant eats people! Entering a haunted house, she discovered that furniture would move at night and even hunt its owners.

Even in an aquarium, which should theoretically be warm and healing, she encountered mermaids who forcibly demanded reproduction, blood-sucking mechanical jellyfish, and unknown transparent creatures. Entering a dental clinic, with a stretch of her hand, a rain of teeth began to fall from the sky.

Furthermore, the cleaning company seems to be hiding a big secret. Artificial intelligence is suspected to be the mastermind. The pharmaceutical company looks utterly black-hearted! Zhu Ning is inexplicably drawn into conflicts, and one wrong step could lead to an early demise.

In the wasteland world, everyone has a thousand tricks up their sleeves. Zhu Ning: "Is Heaven playing games with me?"

An Rou had just transmigrated into the game when her NPC father told her to sell their abandoned farm. An Rou: ? The world was so chaotic; she had always dreamt of having a self-sufficient, isolated farm! Selling it was impossible. An Rou decided to reopen the farm. As for the money her father wanted, she would find other ways to get it.

In the holographic game, which focused on monster slaying, there was only one way to earn money: kill "喰鬼" (flesh-eating demons/ghouls) for gold rewards. An Rou was physically weak, unable to lift heavy things, and was just an NPC who couldn't learn skills or even access a game panel. Killing "喰鬼"? That would be suicide. But An Rou discovered that she could see all players' game panels, and to some extent, even hear the "喰鬼"'s thoughts? An Rou understood: compared to players, the "喰鬼" were her true comrades-in-arms.

As An Rou ventured in and out of mission sites repeatedly, a small burial ground appeared on the farm. From time to time, dull thumping sounds emanated from underground. Every time An Rou heard them, her lips would curve up in a happy smile. Players dying also dropped gold and items; the person who designed this game was a genius! Hundreds of millions of players equaled hundreds of millions of money trees. An Rou would wake up laughing from her dreams.

A group of miserable players quietly appeared on the game forums. Whether they used revival cards or waited for natural resurrection, the outcome was the same: reviving meant instant death, until they were completely offline and could no longer log into the game. Players cried out, finding no recourse, and help-seeking posts flooded the forums. "Someone please, help me find my corpse!" "Which bastard is so evil that they buried my body?!" "Despair, how can even the guild not find my corpse!!!"

As major guilds began to investigate, a mysterious farm gradually became the center of attention. Grain fields, vegetable patches, chicken coops, duck sheds, pickle vats, fish ponds—everything was in place. The farm owner was a young beauty in a silk qipao, not only incredibly alluring but also surrounded by "喰鬼," each one a high-level monster offering abundant rewards. An Rou covered her mouth with a silk handkerchief, feigning surprise: "Oops, you found me. Welcome to play!" All the players erupted in excitement—"So many high-level '喰鬼,' this must be an SSS-rank mission!" "Maybe, probably, definitely, the boss is the ultimate demon king, let's all charge!" However, wave after wave of players went in and never returned, while the farm became increasingly grand, featuring restaurants, hotels, bathhouses, commercial establishments, and even teleportation arrays, clearly setting up for ecological tourism. An Rou looked at the ground covered with corpses, gold, and items, covering her mouth with a gentle smile: "Thank you for your patronage!" Forum players: "Is this a monster-slaying game or a management game?!"

One day, a player finally cornered An Rou, their weapon glowing with a skill's light: "You say you're an NPC? Then why do you have a sword? NPCs can't activate weapon skills..." *Thud*—An Rou's sword shattered all of the player's defenses, piercing through their heart. An Rou chuckled softly: "The base attack power of a top-tier purple weapon is enough to kill you, even without skills." Another day, a large number of players gathered into a legion, besieging the farm with overwhelming force. *Boom, boom, boom...* The farm rose from the ground, astounding tens of thousands of legionnaires—"The damn farm grew legs and ran?!" Beneath the farm was a massive, terrifying SSS-rank "喰鬼." An Rou sat elegantly on the edge of the farm, waving her silk handkerchief: "Welcome to Rou Rou's mobile farm! We'll notify you all once we've moved to a new address." #Opened a farm, accidentally turned it into a final dungeon#

[Tips]1. Female NPC protagonist, greedy for money and a "green tea" type;2. There is a male lead, not just a background character;3. Player death = loss of game qualification, not death in the real world.

After the female protagonist Su Jin died in the apocalypse, she was reborn one month before the apocalypse, so she began to hoard, hoard, and hoard again.

Her family thought Su Jin had been stimulated after marriage and were preparing to team up to beat up the "scumbag," only to discover that the world had changed, and the airline tickets and money in their hands had all turned into waste paper...

Our dear Su Jin was still farsighted! The whole family sat in Su Jin's spatial dimension, sighing with emotion.

At this moment, Su Jin's husband Lu Hao, followed by several team members with bitter expressions, one team member silently counted on his fingers: "This is already the captain's 212th time getting lost while searching for his wife..."
