In the year 2029, a mysterious tech company named Primordial emerges, rapidly overtaking the global tech industry. Its breakthrough product, Portalis, a cutting-edge virtual reality gaming capsule, becomes an instant sensation. Alongside Portalis, Primordial releases Dawn of the Dauntless, a VRMMORPG that promises unprecedented freedom and immersion. Players flock to experience the game’s limitless possibilities, where they can create unique skills, build kingdoms, and interact with NPCs as if they were real people. Among the millions of players, one group rises above the rest 'The Heartless Guild', an elite coalition of the world’s most dedicated gamers. Though their name suggests ruthlessness, they treat NPCs with respect, believing the game world to be more than a mere simulation. Convinced that Dawn of the Dauntless is a gateway to another reality, they even form bonds with NPCs, some going as far as marrying them. The guild’s leaders, the six most powerful players in the world, unite to create The Republic of the Heartless, a harmonious nation where players and NPCs coexist. However, the game’s idyllic world is shattered when Primordial announces a major update after months of silence. As players eagerly log in, a terrifying event unfolds—1.8 billion players vanish from the real world, their bodies disappearing without a trace. The shocking truth becomes apparent: everyone who logged into the game has become trapped within its vast, digital universe, unable to log out. As panic spreads across the globe, governments and scientists scramble to make sense of the catastrophe, but no answers emerge. Inside the game, the trapped players face a new, darker reality—the world of Dawn of the Dauntless has become their new home, and their quest for survival has just begun. Now, the leaders of The Heartless Guild must rally their forces, uncover the truth behind Primordial’s creation, and navigate a world where fantasy and reality have merged—while the outside world remains in turmoil, desperately seeking the lost billions.

RISE OF THE DAUNTLESS In a world where power is not given, but awakened, survival is not a promise-it is a test. Orion and his friends were never meant to stand out. They were just children from a forgotten village, bound by a system they did not understand and a forest that should not have been alive. But the forest is changing. The deeper they run, the more it learns. Wolves no longer hunt blindly-they adapt. The land no longer resists-it guides. And somewhere in the heart of it all, something far older is watching them awaken. When life and death collide, something inside them breaks open. Abilities emerge. Unstable. Uncontrolled. Dangerous. But power comes with ignorance... and ignorance is fatal. Then they meet Vale. A man who should not exist in a place like this. A man who speaks like he already knows what they will become. And when he offers answers, they are not free. They come with a cost none of them understand yet. Because in this world, awakening is only the beginning. And survival is not enough anymore.

What they discovered instead would be seared into their memories for as long as they lived—piles of emaciated corpses, dozens of train cars filled with badly decomposed human remains, and perhaps most difficult to process, the thousands of “walking skeletons” who had managed to survive the horrors of Dachau, the Nazi’s first and longest-operating concentration camp.

Before Feng Yi ascended the throne, no one wanted to marry this prince who lacked presence and was out of favor. After his ascension, the harem was filled with the daughters of high-ranking court officials. They were an eyesore to look at and vexing to deal with. He felt that even favoring them would defile his own dragon body. He decided to choose a woman with a fiery, arrogant, domineering, and jealous nature to enter the palace, to cast all this "trash" into the Cold Palace on his behalf. Song Yunzhao had transmigrated to ancient times for fourteen years, all the while laying low and just trying to get by. She was just waiting for the plot to begin, then she would transform into a villainess—arrogant, domineering, fiery, and jealous—so that she would be rejected from the selection and could then choose a husband to live a carefree and happy life with. Later, Song Yunzhao watched as His Majesty smiled at her with immense indulgence and said, "Zhaozhao, come here." Song Yunzhao immediately felt that something was terribly wrong, a chill running up from the soles of her feet. The damned Emperor wore a gentle expression, but his eyes were as cold as ice; he clearly wanted to use her as his blade!
