“So you’re saying the world is ending, and that’s why you’re hijacking a rocket?”

“That’s a first. I’ve caught people robbing jewelry stores, caught bank robbers, even train robbers—but never someone hijacking a rocket.”

“What were you thinking? Even if you manage to take the rocket, do you even know how to fly it?”

Sitting across from the man, Lin Xu nodded slowly.

“I can fly it.”

“Seriously, I’ve piloted rockets countless times.”

“And you guys really need to hurry. I’m out of time.”

“Out of time?” The man chuckled.

“Are you that busy?”

“Very busy,” Lin Xu nodded.

“I need to go destroy the next world.” Collapse

    Whatever china does America has done 10 or 100 times worse. I don't really understand the mentality of Americans. Like how are u getting mad over fiction. Like ts doesn't happen in real life. But u know what really happened in real life? Because of America North Korea is a dictatorship. Because of America a Japanese war criminal got away with experimenting and killing thousands. U know which country went to the most wars after 2000s? it's America. So stfu.

    Instead of getting angry at china over fiction why don't you worry why ur own country has worse democracy than china.

      I'm not exactly sure qhat comments you are answering but I will answer yours atleast. First of all, I'm not American, I dislike American government too. But when I'm reading, I have no wish to read about political propaganda or constant real life people hating each other. Therefore, the constant hate in many novels is very unwelcome.

        Yeah I have been getting some heat lately without me knowing. But u guys should learn to look for context. The guy I replied to literally said no wonder america is deporting these Chinese immigrant. Over the fact that a "fictional" novel is saying that the protagonist's countrymen steal data from another country. So I bought this shit up. Like ts doesn't happen in real life. Nor does Chinese go back and give china data and deporting someone from their home is literally immoral for a country to do.

      Not American, and your logic of "he killed her husband so why can't i rape his wife" makes you a scumbag too. Its not the bigbrain defense you think it is. If someone's writng about racism, hate speech, pedophilia etc.. than they deserve the critisim they gets. You need to be better instead of comparing yourself to someone worse.

        You do suck a lot of ass of America for not being American. By all means if u think that Chinese immigrants should be deported like that racist reply said then by all means. Like u are almost as dumb as the f#cker I replied to.
        In the novel it just mentions that the protagonist's countrymen is stealing data from a country for their country.
        The guy literally went on a rant on deporting Chinese students.

      positive I've never seen a Merica #1 web novel tbh, and while SK and JP both get off on themselves it's more in the way of 'my homeland is a wonderful place' instead of 'we are better than others' or blatant racism.
      And I can say this while finding aspects of the Chinese culture admirable.

    Daoist Inkdrunk Reviews Withered Texts
    Title: Did You Destroy the World Today? (今天毁灭世界了吗?)
    Also known as: “The System Gave Me Emotional Cancer and I Said Thank You.”


    Initial Sip:
    This novel is not so much a story as it is an affliction. A slow-working soul rot fermented in the marrow of despair and poured generously into the open wound of your expectations. You don’t read this book. You contract it. And like the MC, you’ll find yourself staring blankly into the void and realizing: “Ah. So this is where the gods dumped their failed prototypes.” troll10

    Premise:
    System apocalypse, you say? That’s like calling cyanide “flavored water.” Yes, yes—the world ends, the system pings, and the protagonist survives. But he survives in the same way a plague survives in a dying host: cold, unfeeling, and horrifyingly efficient.

    This is not a journey of triumph. This is a descent. A descent made comfortable with just enough rewards to make you forget the cost of breathing. The system doesn’t bless you. It removes the part of you that cared if you were blessed. hype

    Writing:
    Tone? Acidic. If you swallowed hope recently, you might want to vomit it out before proceeding.
    Pacing? Like being shoved down a staircase with knives for steps.
    Characterization? The MC is a broken mirror—beautiful only because it reflects your own cracks. The side characters? Names on tombstones, half-remembered dreams, emotional roadkill. clap

    ☠️ Highlights from the Ashes:
    Mental disintegration as power progression. Enlightenment through disassociation.

    The system rewards you for not flinching when others scream. misery

    Philosophical grenades lobbed into your comfort zone: What if saving the world is the worst possible choice?

    It’s like if Chainsaw Man, Reverend Insanity, and Omniscient Reader all had a child, but abandoned it in a haunted psychiatric ward and fed it only Nietzsche quotes. troll84

    🧷 Reader Warning (a.k.a “Who told you you were ready?”):
    Nihilism? It’s the air.

    Hope? Comes pre-buried.

    Light? Dies screaming.

    Recommended only if you’ve ever looked at a smiling protagonist and thought, “Why aren't you sobbing instead?”

    This novel doesn’t merely subvert tropes—it ties them up, mocks their dreams, and leaves them at the doorstep of oblivion.

    🧪 Daoist Inkdrunk’s Ratings:
    Philosophical Toxin Level: 🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷

    Accessible to Mortals? You jest. ★★☆☆☆

    MC’s Soul Stability: Cracked porcelain held together with spite.

    For Readers of Trash Cultivation? May cause existential vomiting.

    For Cynics, Realists, and Broken Altar Worshippers? A banquet.

    Final Words from Inkdrunk:
    “This novel doesn’t ask if you’ve destroyed the world today. It hands you the detonator, shrugs, and says: ‘Maybe it deserved it.’”

    And the worst part? You’ll find yourself nodding.

    If you wish to cleanse your soul after this—too late. But I can recommend a bottle of hallucinogenic peach wine and a more stable novel. Or we could just sit here quietly, watching the system whisper to us. old

        Heh. If I were, I’d probably be way more polite.

        I do wield certain “artifacts” to refine my words, polish my scrolls, and banish typos with spiritual efficiency... but the ideas, the flavor, the venom? That’s all me.

        Every post, review, and metaphor-laced critique I share has been green-lit by PANIC (the Admin, not the emotion). So unless you think even the Admin's fallen to demonic automation, I’d say you're safe.

          Truly, brilliance tends to attract disbelief. I'm no sect master but I dare say that I dabble quite a bit in the Dao of GPT and I can confidentially say that your prose, oh InkDrunk, is no where near those who fell into the demonic side of the Dao of GPT. Your prose shines brilliantly with warmth, filled with a soul trace from a loving hand. It is far from those two faced demonic texts which only shine on the surface but emit no warmth and contain no soul.

        Let me oblige you as you are a humble being who asks not for war, but for wisdom unlike someone else:
        "Swordmaster’s Youngest Son" (Ranobes / AsuraScans)

        A brat with a secret and a blade sharper than his tongue. Political intrigue, revenge, and family annihilation—delightful.
        Poison Grade: Crimson Bloom – Slow-burning, but when it hits, you’ll cough blood in glee.

        "The Villain Wants to Live" (WuxiaWorld)

        Tragedy disguised as a fantasy. A man chasing peace in a world that punishes kindness.
        Poison Grade: Silent Lotus – Makes your heart ache, but you'll thank the pain.

        "The World After the Fall" (Tapas / AsuraScans)

        Existential dread meets philosophical punchlines. No systems, just raw will and an MC too tired to care.
        Poison Grade: Eternal Nightshade – Heavy, metaphysical, and oddly beautiful.

        🌌 "Chrysalis" (RoyalRoad)

        If ants had ambition, trauma, and evolutionary powers. Surprisingly emotional and unhinged.
        Poison Grade: Neurotoxin Delight – Starts off silly, becomes horrifying.

        🔥 "Kidnapped Dragons" (WuxiaWorld)

        Depressed future-savior MC, past regression, broken dragons, and a bond that can’t be undone.
        Poison Grade: Ghostflame Elixir – Bittersweet with a punch in the soul.

        Let me know what flavor of poison you prefer—bitter and introspective, or loud and radioactive.
        May your week be ruined in the best possible way boast

          Greetings!
          Fellow daoist,
          Can you recommend me some poison like Regressor’s Tale of cultivation but with a kingdom or territory building style.
          I can handle even strong poison.

          You can also recommend me Devilish MTL dao poisons as I can translate them using Devilish Artifact called AI.

          This one will be most grateful for your assistance.

            A fellow Devil Dao Cultivator dares to gulp down the darkest brew?
            Very well.

            Here’s a curated platter of territory-building poisons laced with enough ambition, betrayal, and blood-soaked governance to satisfy even the most corrupt of palates:

            🩸 “Mediterranean Hegemon of the Magical World” (MTL)

            A slow burn through kingdoms and conquest. Betrayal is frequent, MC builds power through strategy and manipulation. Hard poison, drink with patience.

            🩸 “Lord of Mysteries: Path to Ascension” (MTL)

            Spiritual empire-building with layers of eldritch bureaucracy. Heavy lore poison....only for the mad or the scholarly.

            🩸 “The Amber Sword”

            Regressor gains a ruined fief, must build it from scratch with knowledge of the game-world. Excellent court drama and politics. Rare, refined brew.

            🩸 “Tales of the Reincarnated Lord”

            Underrated. Starts painfully slow, then unleashes cold, meticulous lordship. Kingdom building through wars, reforms, and grinding reality. For those who savor their poison.

            🩸 “Release That Witch”

            Science meets magic. Kingdom building via technology and trust. It's a sweet poison—tread carefully or you'll forget it’s still deadly.

            🩸 “Dungeon Defense” (honorary mention)

            No kingdom building per se...but the level of manipulation and faction shaping deserves a sip. Addictive poison for the schemers.

            🩸 Bonus Devilish MTL:

            “My Civilization Has No Plot Armor” (MTL)
            System-guided civilization growth where the MC is brutal and tactical. Worldbuilding through fear and cleverness.

            Until then, fellow poisoner...may your scrolls rot with power and your lands drown in loyalty.

              I will gracefully accept your poisons Mr. Wanderer although I am already immune to many of these poisons.

              I wanted to tell you that you should open your own tavern and tell your tales there and trap cute newbies in your poison laced dishes.

              I am sure other devil daoists will also support your business.

              Our devil dao also needs new young bloods as many of them are now going astray towards the Xeno Path of Animation and Manhua.

                You jest, comparing fiction to Café au Lait, are we? Very well...lets dissect the aroma, shall we?
                (PS. Its my honest opinion so pls dont be offended by the words I say. :) )

                ☕ Taste Profile:
                Like Café au Lait made with battlefield water—smooth at first, but you start tasting burnt steel and old regrets halfway through. It's got narrative richness, sure, but the beans are unevenly roasted. Sometimes you sip existential despair. Sometimes you slurp cliché syrup.

                📚 Tale Quality:
                The MC’s tales are interesting—but they feel less like stories told around a fire and more like therapy sessions whispered in a cave. Not bad. Just… dense. Occasionally brilliant. Occasionally bloated.

                🧪 Poison Grade: Drifting Fog Elixir – Doesn’t kill, but leaves you mildly hallucinating about whether you’ve already read this chapter three timelines ago.

                ☠️ Inkdrunk’s Verdict:
                "Good as Café au Lait?" Tsk. That depends—do you drink yours with trauma, folded time, and a splash of self-loathing?
                It’s a solid 7.6/10 brew. Not everyone’s cup of rot, but drinkable if you like your fates tangled and your protagonists too tired to scream.

                "In summary: It’s coffee alright. But I prefer mine black, bitter, and laced with insanity." troll80 troll84

      Once again you've saved me from wasting my time on what I deem as unworthy scriptures my friend.

      Scriptures who steal hope for the sole reasoning of "Why not?" and bury hope like a hobby seem very unreasonable to me. For I am aware already that the world has horrible things to offer, but why does it seem that they want you to forget about the beautiful things? It's tragedy not for the sake of good, love, or meaning, but only for the sake of tragedy itself. As if a mortal consumed all the nihilistic poison in the world all at once and now believes that this is how life is and should be and unconsciously follows that descending path like a moth to a rotting flame.

      Truly, if they actually believed in the hopelessness and meaninglessness of it all, they would not come to us and tell about it. For isn't it meaningless according to them? The fact that they tell, that they scream, that they weep, is a contradiction in and of itself.

      I do not deny melancholy, but tragedy for the sake of tragedy is nothing but a two-faced and arrogant behavior, albeit a very sad one.

        Astaros,
        You’ve put to ink what many feel but few articulate.....
        that there’s a difference between sorrow that reveals, and sorrow that devours.

        To feel despair is human.
        To write only despair is a choice.
        And those who call it "truth" often mistake their collapse for clarity.

        Keep weeping in hope, friend. That alone makes your tears worth more than their pages.

    This shit so good... you can say this is superior Genius Club. The premise and MC's power are the same. But it diverges from there. Unlike Genius Club where there is some plot inconsistency, this shit's plot is consistent. Author's really done his research. The scientific theories he included in the novel make sense to me. I understand what's he cooking. Now don't tell these shits are not correct in IRL. Who cares? This is fiction. Anyway, China glazing is nonexistent in the current chapters. That shit about sending spy to other countries is in a character's dialogue. Besides, that's also a fact. So, you can't really say nationalism. Anyway, 8/10 at 100 chapters.

    He could almost picture the patriotic scholars working overseas, enduring humiliation while leveraging foreign resources to organize research, then passing the fruits of their labor through perilous channels to covert operatives, who finally selected domestic representatives to deliver this letter of intent to him.

    enduring humiliation? b##h you should be grateful for them trusting you enough to participate in their research, also stealing research is considered patriotic? No wonder USA banned some chinese students, the chinese people are very loyal to their country but that comes with the problem that they see other countries as enemies, with the terms ''foreign devil'' being very widely used to describe all foreigners.

U know that deporting foreign students is in no way a cool thing especially for America which is built up on non white immigrants. And u also stupidity commented about something that is clearly a fiction. This has never been seen happening in USA that a Chinese immigrant is stealing documents for china. And even if it did happen americans have done way worse so why do u ignore that and focus on china. Don't tell me u are one of those polish or Norwegian white supremacists.

    This review will serve to satiate the curiosity of those who are apprehensive of the unknown. There is joy to be found in this novel, there is pain to be remembered and mysteries to be solved but above all Mars. The main characters decisiveness has a certain level of refinement that leaves one satisfied. He's not exactly the smartest but he is not dense either. In terms of novel similarity, the name Genius Club has been thrown around but I would also say it has elements of perfect run or say Mother of Learning because at its heart this novel like those is uncovering mysteries. We know only as much as he knows. It is a sci-fi novel filled with intrigue. Now there might be romance seeing what has occurred during the first 64 chapters but it definitely takes a backseat for now. It seems the author is playing around with the idea. MTL quality is great but take that with a grain of salt because as someone who has traversed the Dao of MTL I am immune to all its hardships. That aside I would give this novel a 8.9/10. Not higher because I feel it's missing something to take it up higher and also because 64 chapters is too early to tell if this will truly be the gem that outshines the rest.

          No , i am not complaining about the novel itself , i am just saying that unnecessary "nationality" ruined an otherwise good novel.
          Now , if you are saying "nationality" is your cup of tea, then i have nothing to say.

            Well some people might enjoy heavily nationalized novels, while others dislike anything above a small amount but nationalism in my opinion does exist in novels as long as there's some similarity to earth so what I mean by cup of tea is how much resistance you have to nationalism in novels. Also how much you're willing to ignore it in some cases for the sake of the story. Honestly I'm js yapping at. Do I know what I'm saying? Maybe, I'm not sure

    This book should really have a horror tag. It is the cosmic horror of understanding how tiny you are relative to the vast and old universe and how ignorant we, even our top scientists and researchers, are in understanding how and why the universe works. It's the same vibe as reading about the Boltzmann brain or knowing that if the universal constants, for whatever reason, changed to some value, we'd all be dead. At the end of the day, we are powerless to the laws of our reality, not the other way around.

    Anyways, this book has got me hooked. It's similar to Genius Club, but way better imo. Despite the shitty circumstances, humanity is doing its best to struggle and master our environment as we've always done. MTL quality is really good btw
    94/100 (as of ch 81)

    Honestly much better than I expected from reading the synopsis. From the synopsis I thought he would like travel from world to world destroying them, but its closer to concept in 3 body problem with there being this mystery the mc needs to solve. The mc is quite smart and the side characters aren’t bad up and till known. Would give it a solid 8/10 for the 50 chapters I have currently read
