The Passerby, He Turned out to Be the World-Ending Boss

Shen Jie found himself in the body of a passerby in a post-apocalyptic novel. The passerby was an ordinary person without any superpowers, just a low-level employee at the research institute. Besides conducting experiments, his usual role was to liven up the atmosphere by clapping and shouting “666”.

Shen Jie was quite satisfied with this new identity and even found a suitable partner along the way. Although his partner often went on business trips and was taciturn, he had broad shoulders and a narrow waist, capable of doing half a month’s work in a day. With this new life, Shen Jie felt content and happy every day.

After living an ordinary life for seven years, a voice suddenly appeared in his mind: “Do you want to change the fate of a cannon fodder, experience an extraordinary life? Do you want to find the meaning of life, save the broken world? The Cannon Fodder Reversal System is at your service!” “I don’t want to,” Shen Jie replied without hesitation.

The system felt depressed. It had accidentally come online seven years late, only to find its bound host wanting to live a simple life with his partner, ignoring the impending doom of the world. Even as the world was on the brink of destruction, they were still in love—

Until one day, the system discovered a secret. The soul of the host it was bound to seemed to be the culprit behind the world’s destruction.

…Help, host, please just remain an ordinary person!

Many people in the Center of Abilities knew that Zong Lin had a beloved person he cherished dearly. This cold and taciturn human, one of the strongest superpower users, after piercing the hearts of the aliens with his spear every time, would take out the pocket watch his lover gave him and kiss it gently with his deformed hands. It was like a deep prayer, as if he were willingly trapping himself in a tender prison of love.

Rumors had it that Zong Lin’s beloved was just an ordinary person with no strength to speak of, except for a pretty face. One day, Zong Lin’s beloved was abducted by an SSS-level alien. Zong Lin went berserk, leading a group of people into the alien’s nest. There, they saw Zong Lin’s beloved holding a knife to the alien’s neck, smiling sweetly: “Two choices. One, you extend your neck for me to stab. Two, I push the knife in. Which one will you choose?”
