"Limiting arms trading, I'm a civilian product, okay?"
Wang Ye was reborn back to 1982. As a graduate of Huqing University, he voluntarily took on the role of director at the Red Star Military Factory to carry out military-to-civilian reform. "We agreed on military-to-civilian conversion, so what's with this gas cylinder?" When Wang Ye's superiors saw the first product he developed for the Red Star Military Factory, they were stunned! And all of this was because Wang Ye was very clear. In that year, China's reform and opening up progressed in an orderly manner, making way for economic construction. Countless military projects were shelved, and it was said that selling tea eggs was more profitable than making rockets. In that year, Eagle Sauce and Bear Fur were engaged in fierce competition internationally with their lackeys, little did they know that a few years later, Bear Fur would collapse, China's pressure would reach its peak, and the need for weapons would be sorely felt! "Economic development is crucial, but military industry cannot be neglected! Since the country has no money, then we in the military industry will earn it ourselves!" From that day on, the Red Star Machinery Factory, undergoing military-to-civilian transformation, embarked on an unprecedented path of development. It merged military and civilian aspects, treating customers as gods in military matters, while maintaining military quality in civilian use. Finally, when more and more Red Star Machinery Factory products appeared internationally, Eagle Sauce and Bear Fur were utterly dumbfounded! "Internal threaded steel pipe? Flammable and explosive gas cylinder? Gyroscopic tricycle? Multi-tube fire-fighting rocket launcher? Pickup truck with rainmaking artillery? Tracked tractor? Cruise self-destructing drone?" "And you call these civilian products? Rabbit, you have no sense of honor!"

The Wrong Gluttony
Then it felt something. Not a emotion, but something else. Touch. Then slowly it opened its eyes. It saw a whole Bunch of brown things cylinders with green things on the end. It was very interesting. What interested it the most though was the floating box that had four arrows pointing at it. Out of instinct, it pressed the button. That was when it realized it had hands. Or more accurately paws. Then it realized that it knew what paws and hands were. It realized that what it saw were planets, stars, asteroids, and spaceships. It realized that there were trees in front of it. It's head hurt from the sudden influx of information. "Greetings 'Gluttony.' You are a being created by the lord of the abyss. Congratulations! His grand lordship has created you for a grand purpose. To collect the legendary skill 'Seven Sins Series: Sin of Gluttony' and the title 'Gluttonous Devourer.' You are one of the six who were created in order to gain a legendary skill. Not all are expected to succeed, but if one does it they will be rewarded greatly. Your fellow creations are: Wrath, Lust, Avarice, Sloth, and Envy. First of, due to the lords efforts in creating all of you, it is recommended that no infighting commences. Secondly, the forms you are in have been selected to fit the sin you will inhabit. For your form you have been selected as 'Dire Wolf.' Other info is available by trying to summon your status. Now please press here."Out of instinct, it pressed the button. All of the sudden it's head felt like it split in half. Boxes were popping up everywhere."Control implant insertion failed""Error: main function overridden by creator.""Error: secondary functions nullified.""Error: full program termination"Then it stopped. Everything stopped. The boxes disappeared and the pain went away. It did not see the boxes while it was crouched over in pain, so it did not know what happened. It decided anyway though, that whoever the lord of the abyss is, it would not trust him.(I really do appreciate feedback as this is my first time writing a novel)

At the front of the bed is a flat-screen TV and a bathroom a few centimeters away from the entrance.She frowns. " This... Isn't this a hotel room? " As she is surprised, she immediately looks at herself. " Wait... Why am I naked? " She quickly covers her body with a blanket she's holding.Scared, nervous.

"The man with gray wavy hair stares at her. His expression was priceless. In a second, his gaze diverts to the lady's neck. " Mosquitoes here sure are big. " He said whilst pointing at the red marks on Rene's neck.Frustrated, Rene picks up a pillow laying near her and throws it at the young man who looks dumbfounded. " You damn mosquito! " She yells.The fine young mosquito let the pillow hit him. Rene wraps herself using the blanket and runs towards the bathroom. Before she enters, she turns around, giving a death glare to the mosquito who still can't believe what just happened." Is this a dream? " Nate asks himself.
