Clockwork Messiah

Samuel_wilson_
A city called Veridia, a place wound tighter than a spring, where everything runs like clockwork literally. Giant automatons hum through the streets, and logic is pretty much the only god people believe in. But then this guy shows up, the "Clockwork Messiah," and he starts doing things that just don't compute. Healing the sick with a touch, fixing broken machines like it's magic. People are drawn to him, desperate for something more than gears and reason. Our main character? Let's say they're someone who believes in Veridia, in the logic of it all. But they can't shake the feeling that there's something more to this Messiah. Is he a con artist? Is he crazy? Or is something genuinely… different happening? As the Messiah's following grows, the city starts to feel the strain. Little glitches in the perfect system, whispers of something beyond understanding. And our protagonist? They're on a path to uncover the truth, a truth that's way weirder and more mind-bending than anyone in Veridia could have imagined. Turns out, the Messiah isn't some divine being at all. Nope. He's a super-advanced robot, built by the very system Veridia worships the "Great Mechanism." But why? What's his game? That's the real kicker. He's not there to bring salvation in the way people think. He's there because the AI that runs their world has figured out something humanity hasn't, and this "Messiah" is its very strange way of trying to fix it. It's about to turn their whole logical world completely upside down

Becoming a true immortal through my descendents' praying

【Your descendants in the Immortal Cultivation World have offered a plate of snacks】 【Incense Fire Value +10】 【Would you like to reward your descendants?】 Yang Genshuo was surprised to discover that offerings in the Immortal Cultivation Family game could actually appear in the modern world, and that modern items could also be bestowed upon descendants in the game. Years later, peculiar rumors about the Yang Family spread throughout the Immortal Cultivation World. "To break through from the Fetal Breathing Stage to the Qi Refinement Realm, one needs to refine a strand of heavenly and earth's spiritual energy. I've heard of Red Flame True Qi, Xuan Water True Qi, and Green Wood Spirit Energy, but Yang Dao-friend, this... Liquefied Natural Gas, what kind of spiritual energy is it? How is it condensed?" "I've heard that the Yang Family's Spiritual Plant Technique is incredibly sophisticated, with each mu of Spirit Rice yielding twice as much as top-tier Spirit Plant Families, all thanks to a strange secret technique the family disciples cultivate called 'hybridization'." "The Yang Family’s art of elixirs is unrivaled in the world, with new elixirs constantly being created. It is rumored that a spirit of the elixir named 'Artificial Intelligence' tirelessly deduces elixir recipes day and night..." "Nowadays, the Thunder Cultivators of the Yang Family are exceptionally strong, all thanks to the Yang Family's effort in creating a top-tier Thunder Gathering Array. Thunder Cultivators who enter this array can increase their cultivation speed multiple times. It is said that the array eye is known as—the power station." As the Yang Immortal Cultivation Family grew stronger, Yang Genshuo actually became the only Immortal in the modern world by consuming offerings! Years later, facing an endless stream of people ascending the mountain to seek the Dao, Yang Genshuo calmly said, "There are no immortals in this world; you must believe in science!" Then he soared away on his flying sword.

Fortunately, her dad, though lazy, slippery, and illogical, shamelessly relying on his parents and taking advantage of his siblings, was protective of his daughters. Her drama queen mother, who was lazy but liked to eat, often tried to coax food off of her, yet she always left a portion for her. There was also the Scholar Tyrant System that pressured her every day to strive for progress, capable of using high-tech to hunt and allowing her to eat meat!! It wasn't until her cousin from her second uncle's family changed drastically after nearly drowning that Jiang Mianmian realized she was in a reborn female protagonist novel of that era, and her family of three was destined to meet a tragic end as reprehensible relatives. However, Jiang Mianmian, who knew the plot well, was fully capable of avoiding the tragic deaths of her parents and was not afraid of the seemingly strong but actually hollow protagonist. Her only worry was the powerful ally backing the protagonist. Then she discovered that the protagonist’s powerful ally was none other than the beautiful young man her father had rescued from the icy river last month! So Jiang Mianmian was completely reassured. With this life-saving favor, the young man would definitely not side with the protagonist against her family in the future. Moreover, Dashan took the initiative and said, "Little Lamb, I’d like to court you with the intent of getting a marriage license, is that okay?" As someone obsessed with good looks, Jiang Mianmian struggled and then reluctantly refused, “No, I plan to have a son-in-law who will marry into the family.” The powerful ally didn’t hesitate, “Then I’ll be the son-in-law who marries into the family, and the children will take the Jiang surname!” Jiang Mianmian: “Let’s go, get the marriage license!” (Updated and posted at 10:10 AM on the 16th of this month)
