[Congratulations! You are the Pioneer of the Mutation Abyss. Brace yourself - The Apocalypse begins now…][Main Quest: Eliminate Fellow Survivors][Description: The strong will thrive, and the weak will perish]Theo was never lucky. Bullied for his appearance and always underestimated, he lived his life as a pushover. But everything changed the night a meteorite struck him. His life takes a drastic turn.Chosen by the Mutation Abyss, he gains access to a mysterious system, granting him an evolutionary advantage.The world is doomed. An infection is spreading, turning the world into a deadly battleground. As the human Infectees mutate and portals to unknown realms open, otherworldly forces threaten humanity’s survival.Theo must harness his new abilities to survive in this brutal world. But in a place where strength is everything, will Theo keep his humanity, or become something worse?

The world ended.Zombies and monsters rose. Cities crumbled.And Merek? He woke up in the apocalypse with a job that lets him create armor for lingering souls—spirits without bodies, desperate for purpose.Turns out, the dead don’t rest easy. Some are angry. Some vengeful. Others? Just lost. When Merek binds them into steel warframes, they don’t just fight... they evolve.Now, he leads a legion of the undead—ghosts in armor, bound to him by oath and fate.Faction leaders call him mad. Warlords want him dead. And God? If He’s watching, He’s not talking.Merek was supposed to die with everyone else.Instead, he got a support type job no one’s heard of... and a shot at rewriting his pathetic Earth-life.In this world, only the fittest survive.And Merek? He’s got undeads in steel at his side.

A life filled with regrets.Once he realized his faults and decided to lead a new life, it was too late.His family was already gone.He had borne through each day with pure rage.Finally at the end of his misery, his wish reached the heavens—an unforgiven one.He goes against fate to raise his sword.

He reincarnated into a hunter world and became an underwater hunter.There were only 20 people in the entire country in this minor profession, but it didn’t matter. He liked the sea.“Crazy! There’s a real artifact?!”“Ahahaha!! How much is all this worth!!”But then, the Great Diving Era began.“Ah, it’s so beautiful… I want to see more, more…”“W-What is that!! Save me!!!”“Aaaargh!!! My head!! It feels like my head is going to explode!!”…It would be better not to go in there.
