Indigo Descent
When an unstoppable alien army called the Unds invaded, humanity’s last line of defence changed everything. Earth was forced into The Torn Indigo—a brutal, apocalyptic reality that plays by video game rules. To survive, which is being above average, you have to fight through deadly dungeons, hunt for loot, and level up.
Ivan gave up on chasing power years ago. He just wants to keep his head down, drive his taxi, and look out for his small group of friends. But his quiet life shatters when he stumbles upon the legacy of a fallen hero and inherits a devastating S-rank weapon.
Suddenly, Ivan was on the path to becoming a powerhouse. Starting from absolute rock bottom, he has to keep his overpowered sword a secret while fighting his way up the ranks. It won't be easy. He isn't just up against towering alien conquerors; he also has to survive the corrupt, greedy human factions who use the weak as cannon fodder.
Caught in a massive war on two fronts, Ivan and his allies must face the worst horrors the Torn Indigo has to throw at them. The game was built to save humanity, but has become flawed. To actually protect the people he loves, Ivan will have to stop just surviving and become a force of nature.
