This novel is published by the same author of Everyone Else is a Returnee. Unlike what this website says, there is actually 301 chapters. It's an RPG-type novel with many fight scenes. It is also implied that the MC also gets a harem with 7 women (which means that the story doesn't develop the harem aspect at all, even though it hints it). I personally would have liked to have at least 1 side-story/epilogue chapter, as this novel did not provide any. As with many other Korean novels, the ending of Stop, Friendly Fire! is pretty anticlimatic, although the first 220 or so chapters were extremely solid. The MC, Lee Shin-Woo, dies in a car crash on Earth, and is summoned to another world by its God. This world is going through a crisis in which all of its inhabitants in an Empire underground have been turned into undead due to a curse, and heroes are summoned by God in order to kill these undead and eventually purify the underground Empire. Shin-Woo asks this God for a body with infinite growth potential in return for being summoned to this new world. Much to his chagrin, God turns him into an undead skeleton (with resistance to the undead curse and the holy element). God gives him 99 lives and an ability where he can absorb the bones of enemies that he has killed, gaining their memories, experience, and any skills they have learned. In a way, God has granted Shin-Woo's wish of having infinite growth potential, at the cost of becoming a skeleton. Shin-Woo resolves to do whatever it takes to become as strong as he can, purify the undead curse, and live the rest of his life in peace. Shin-Woo isn't the only hero that was summoned to this world, as there are various heroes that were summoned from other worlds. Obviously, you can expect some of these heroes to become part of Shin-Woo's harem. Shin-Woo also allies with residents of this new world.  Shin-Woo is an OP MC, with a skeleton body with infinite growth potential, and the mindset of doing whatever it takes to get stronger, even if he has to trick his allies, enemies, the entire world, and himself to do so. He becomes a magic swordsman as the novel progresses.  Follow Shin-Woo as he becomes stronger, gains allies, and purifies the Empire of the curse!
