Arknights: I became an NPC in the online game

"Ark" or "Arknights" is a next-generation MMORPG that once reached a peak of 80 million online users worldwide. The game's setting is a world called Terra—not to be confused with "Holy Terra"—a vast and chaotic planet thirty times larger than Earth, filled with expansive lands and plagued by frequent natural disasters. The story follows Felix, a player who is unexpectedly transported back in time to the period before the game's official server launch. However, instead of returning as a player, he finds himself reincarnated as an NPC within the game. Now functioning with all the traits and systems of an NPC, Felix becomes a legendary figure among players. To them, he is: A mysterious merchant A dreamlike mentor An unattainable ideal for countless female players Within the world of Terra, Felix is more than just an NPC—he is seen as a spiritual guide, a false priest, a dreamer, a philosopher, a reformer, a philanthropist, a loner, a seeker, an explorer, and a pioneer. His motto: "Let the players enjoy the game—while I profit from every second they do." --- Quotes from notable figures in the game: Jesselton: “I could take two or three punches from Saria, but I wouldn’t dare take even one from Felix. Even if God ordered me to, I’d go to war with Him instead.” Arturia: “Felix’s presence makes me want to perform before him for three days and three nights, without rest.” Patriot: “Your ideals… they are reality.” MacArthur, a five-star American operator, once remarked: “All it takes is a single move from him, and he’ll dominate the entire Terra Daily hot search list. The moment I saw Felix on the battlefield, I knew—there was no turning back.”

TRUCK CITY

The belief that a city must exist on fixed land begins to collapse. A man selling fish-shaped pastries from a truck, a woman serving hot fish cakes— around an abandoned industrial complex, beside a landfill no one paid attention to, self-employed truck owners begin to gather. Medical care, housing, food, education, fashion, administration—every function of a city is loaded onto moving trucks. This is the beginning of Truck City. After witnessing the death of a child caused by the collapse of the emergency medical system— and seeing the responsibility erased within bureaucracy—Doyoon loses faith in the existing healthcare structure. “If the hospital can’t come, then the hospital must move.” Centering on T-MED, a surgical truck equipped with a full operating room, he designs a mobile medical system capable of deploying anywhere. But the experiment soon runs into fierce resistance from the medical establishment and rigid administrative barriers. Those who gather to survive soon realize that medicine alone is not enough. People need to eat, get dressed, and have a place to sleep. Food trucks arrive. Ultra-compact residential units called House Trucks are installed. Electricity, water, and communication systems are connected on a truck-by-truck basis. Truck City gradually begins to take the shape of a city, no longer just a temporary camp. As Truck City spreads through social media, it draws global attention. A truck fashion show held in collaboration with Gucci and large-scale food truck festivals spark a new cultural movement. Functionality-driven trucker fashion, born from survival, becomes a worldwide trend. Meanwhile, requests pour in to export medical and rescue trucks to war zones and disaster areas. Truck City is no longer a fringe experiment—it becomes a global model. But expansion inevitably creates fractures. Capital flows in. Politics intervene. Internal power struggles emerge. Between those trying to protect mobility and public purpose and those attempting to lock the system into a profit-driven structure, Truck City stands at a crossroads. Is this an ideal city— or merely the repetition of another system? TRUCK CITY asks: Who does a city belong to? Who does a system really save? A record of a moving city, suspended between survival and ideals.

Melon Eating Cannon Fodder, On Air!

An Ning opened her eyes and found herself transmigrated into a novel which she had just read. In the novel, the original An Ning nothing more than cannon fodder - a quiet girl whose silence was painted as arrogance. Every setup turned into a scandal, and misunderstandings tarnished her reputation, until by the finale she was buried under trending tags like #TwoFacedQueen and #MostHatedContestant. But now that former A-list actress An Ning had become her, she wasn’t about to let that happen. Armed with her superstar instincts and a melon-eating system that boosted her luck whenever she gossiped or reveled in drama, she was ready to flip the script. Low luck value meant traps and misunderstandings. But high luck value? It meant schemes collapsing, netizens cheering, and golden opportunities falling right into her lap. This time, An Ning would protect the original’s dignity, reclaim her reputation, and maybe-just maybe- find herself in an unscripted love story. Peeking from the door, An Ning thought she’d catch her boss in the act - after all, the grapevine said he was secretly in a relationship, and it wasn’t every day she could eat melon about her own boss. But the office was empty. Just as she turned to leave, an ominous voice from behind. “Enjoying yourself, Miss An?” She stiffened, caught red-handed.”…I was just passing by.” He stepped closer, his voice low, carrying a hint of amusement. “Passing by at midnight?” The system chimed: [Ding!Unexpected encounter detected - Heartbeat +50] (Side note:”melon-eating” is a Chinese slang for watching or consuming gossip/drama as an onlooker. A “melon” = a juicy piece of gossip)
