Synopsis
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to wake up in a body that wasn't yours? A much, much younger body? I can't say that I had ever given it much thought. That was until one night when a patient entered the ER where I was working at and shot me point blank in the head. You know, if he wanted a second opinion, all he had to do was ask. But that's besides the point... Some how, some way, I work up in a strange hospital with a woman that looked suspiciously like my mother holding my hand and crying. Over joyed to see her, it took me a few minutes to realize that I was no longer the 25 year old, successful doctor at one of the most prestigious hospitals in the world. Nope, I was a 6 year old girl that for a moment... wanted her mother. When the apocalypse comes, it is everyone for themselves. I have three choices: do I fight for what I want? Will I run away and hide, or will I freeze when the demons of my past come back to haunt me? You might know me as the Healer, but this is my story to tell. ------ Fight, Flight, or Freeze is the second novel in the Rebirth in the Apocalypse series, this time featuring the Healer: Wang Tian Mu and her men. You won't have to read the first one to be able to understand this one, and she is not going to stay a child for the whole thing. Li Dai Lu and her guys will be popping in occasionally, but this is strictly Wang Tian Mu's story! I hope you enjoy!

The story of the Flight of Icarus is a tragic Greek myth. Icarus and his father Daedalus were imprisoned on an island. Daedalus, a brilliant inventor, crafted wings made of feathers and wax for them to escape. He warned Icarus not to fly too close to the sun as the heat would melt the wax. But Icarus, in his excitement and a bit of youthful recklessness, ignored his father's warning. As he soared higher and higher towards the sun, the wax on his wings melted, and he plunged into the sea and drowned.

I'm not a savage

This time, I didn't care about my results. I only cared about my heart. This time, I just wanted to write a good book. This time, I wanted to write about hope. I wanted to write about the deepest dream in my heart. I really wanted to seriously transmigrate once and truly live in my dream once. " I was originally ordinary and mediocre, but my dreams were not mediocre at all. Every day before I fell asleep, I would enter the space of my dreams. I would live in that space bit by bit, walking inch by inch. Starting from being naked, I would create a dream space that belonged to me and everyone else. It's just that this space is more realistic and more manipulable than any of the spaces in my novels. This wasn't originally the introduction to the book. The introduction that he had prepared was much more awesome than this. It was just that he didn't know which drunkard was singing " Wrangler City " outside the study room. He didn't know how many wives he had run away from and how heart-wrenching his singing was. I don't know why, but it actually made me, a heartless fatty who was nearly fifty years old, cry. People, the older they get, the more useless they become. Then, the introduction became like this. You can make do with it. If the book is not good, just scold me in the book review section. I'm still in the same habit. I'm all ears. Also, if you like hot-blooded teenagers, please go and read " Brick of Tang "," Wisdom of the Great Song "," Silver Fox "," Han Xiang ", and " Tomorrow Afternoon ". The books with the least number of readers are all at least 25,000. The quality is still guaranteed. This time, please allow me to transmigrate slowly, blissfully transmigrate, and transmigrate with style. Your old friend Jie and 2

The soft and sweet little cutie was spoiled by the general

The new book, Shocking! The weakest in the galaxy, she picked up the battleship with her bare hands again."Babies, come and watch." When they first met, he only said one sentence. "Dig a hole and bury it." The bone-chilling voice was like the sound of nature to her. It was also the most touching thing she had heard since she was dumped. "Yes, General." She learned his identity from his attendant. He was the cold-blooded general whom she had broken off the engagement with. If there was a chance, she would definitely repay him for burying her bones. Later, she was reborn and married him. Everyone said that Wan Yanji was born with a murderous aura, cold-blooded and heartless, and he killed people like flies. He was very scary. After that, everyone saw the General's wife, who had a ruddy complexion. They also saw the General's wife being bullied and the General's family coming out to seek justice for her. It was said that the other party was the young master of the High Duke's Public House, but he was beaten so badly that he did not even dare to acknowledge his parents. Behind the crowd, the servants of the General Manor could always hear the General's wife asking timidly. "Is the general still alive?" "The general has returned triumphantly?" "The other side has never fought a general before?" "Madam, do you really wish for the General to die so badly?" The servants could not help but ask. Bai Lixin nodded without thinking." Of course. I'll bury him after he dies." This way, she would be done repaying him. Everyone was speechless.

I'm really a spirit contract master

The many races on Planet Kaga were in constant conflict, and evil gazes were watching the entire planet through the spirit world. Any intelligent creature had the hope of awakening their psionic powers through the omnipresent spirit world and becoming a powerful psionic. There were Psionics who grasped elemental powers, Psionics who tempered their bodies, and Psionics who sublimated their souls. Among them, there were even a few psionics who had the hope of obtaining special knowledge from the spirit world and transforming it into their own talents. He had transmigrated to this world through land and air. Due to the transmigration, his soul was different from the rest. At the age of fifteen, he had awakened his psionic powers and became a spirit contract master who used the power of the soul to contract spiritual beasts and other living beings. He could even see the various knowledge contained in the spirit world when he awakened and broke through, and choose the talent he needed! [Perfect Body (Immortal): There is no limit to the strength of the body. As long as you train, you can continuously increase the strength of the body.] [God of War's Heart (Main God): Born for battle. The more you fight, the stronger you become. What can't defeat you will only make you stronger.] [Lord of Storm (Main God): You are the Lord of the Sky, the Air, and the Storm.] [Psionic Affinity (Legendary): Innate affinity with psionic energy, absorbing psionic energy at a speed far exceeding that of ordinary people.] ………… Looking at each and every one of their incomparably powerful talents, Lu Kong felt that something was amiss. Speaking of which, I'm a spirit contract master, why don't I have the talent of a spirit contract master? Several years later, Lu Kong punched an evil god that had descended. He said indignantly,"I told you I'm a Spirit Contract Master. Why didn't you believe me?"
