Recommendations Looking for an apocalypse story

[TheJudger]

So, i'm looking for some urban apocalyptic story world, but with only a condition, it has to have powers, magic or anything they call

It can be litrpg, or whatever, portal apocalypse, zombie apocalypse, demon apocalypse, whatever, just want some story where the Earth is okay in the start, and than BOOM death everywhere

The mc can't be a dumbass, he has to have at least 80 IQ(pretty hard to find one these days)

Also, i don't care about the MC gender and sexuality, but it can't have non-sense romance BS

My favourite such story is in Chinese and has no translation. But here is the link where to find it https://forum.novelupdates.com/threads/wen-yao-of-apocalypse.64715/

Im not sure if it's the best story around in terms of solid writing, but I enjoyed doomsday lord. It has a pretty cool concept that I haven't anywhere else of having the litrpg elements be like clash of clans, where you're building up your village from the ground up until it becomes a massive kingdom.
Unfortuantely the translation speed is kinda shit and there are barely any new chapters posted after ch 190. But there is an mtl if you can stomach that.

You can try Doomsday Wonderland (I think it's only on Webnovel tho), it's an amazing story. Female lead, without romance, and much different from most cliche apocalypse settings. Though it takes a long while for the real powers to kick in.

Another amazing story is A Universe of Bloody Evolution on RR, with a male lead and no romance, plus a surprisingly rare in apocalyptic stories situation where the mc is way too weak to fight with all the enemies he enounters.

Dawn of the Void - a LitRPG Apocalypse (also on RR) is a great story as well, but it begins really slowly and takes a significantly different approach to apocalypse than most stories. If you're looking for apocalypse as in surviving relatively alone in a ruined world, then it's not that.

If you're interested in manga, there's also a shitton of KR apocalyptic manga on sites like Manganato. One that stuck with me was The Only Necromancer.

PS: for whatever reason there is very little apocalypse-themed stories on Scribble. I'd like to recommend something from there, but all stories like that from Scribble that I know are romance stories.

A shameless plug-in for my Fanfic: TWD

It's a zombie fic, only 6 chapters, but I intend to do at least 60+!

I'm probably very late but I gotta give you this one, exactly what you're looking for.

"Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game" Cuz I'm a sucker for reincarnation, system, and OP MC.



Our MC Fang Heng is reincarnated into a world where people are forced to log in inside a virtual space "King God's Space" for atleast 1 month every year (dying in the game = death irl). In the virtual space you pick one of three worlds as your elementary world (there are mid tier and high tier worlds you can go onto if you're able)"Wasteland Apocalypse" "Zombie Apocalypse" and "Vampire Apocalypse". MC's predecessor was in the zombie apocalypse and had the S Level talent Zombie clone. because there is now a new soul in the body mc gets to upgrade talent to SSS and is sent to a new server in the zombie apocalypse with many others, so far, there isn't any of that nonsense romance or harem in the typical chinese webnovels so the story is even better. the story may seem like any other webnovel at the start but it starts to get more exciting and better after every arc, there's currently around 1000+ chapters, I can tell you that the story most definitely had improved by hundrens of times.
