Synopsis

After the whole world fought an alien force and won, humankind became united for 50 years. The demolition of the aliens produced a mass impact on the creation of new technology and weapons. After 25 years of peace things started to finally fall apart and there came a divide of power between the new technology. The world is now divided into two sectors each with their own goals.

Chapter 1Welcome to the Future

My name's Flynn. I've been walking through the newly added wasteland filled with rustic metal and dead ground with two kids following behind me. A girl and a boy. Siblings who just survived the fifth bomb attack from the Novus Sector military. Those fucking bastards keep trying to destroy the world as an excuse to expand our resources to other worlds. They won't even disclose any information on the planets they've locked on to for habitation.

My eyes finally spot a city in the distance noting our progress. It's the Adsum Sector that's surrounded by a dome-shaped golden glowing shield. I notice the crack in the shield from one of the Novus attacks has gotten larger. Lord knows how much time we have left.

I do a quick check up on the kids. The girl who seems older is holding her brothers hand and guiding him forwards to keep up. Poor kids; They've lost everything except for their lives. At that point it's a question of whether you think your life is valuable enough to keep going or not; And that requires trust with yourself. Well, hopefully these kids don't ever feel like that. I'm sure we'll find them a place here.

I hold up my golden hologram badge as we approach the entrance to the dome and we walk through a small break that allows us entry. I finally relax. Home sweet home; I better enjoy it while it lasts.

I look over to an idle volunteer, "Hey get these kids to a shelter." The kids look up at me frightened so I kneel down to reassure them that everything's going to be okay. The girl hugs me before she leaves with the volunteer leaving me smiling on the inside. These small moments of gratitude and hope that these kids I bring back may live happy lives or make change is what makes it all worth it. I resupply and head out to the next town.

Age of Gods: Thousand Folds System

Sullo was transmigrated to a world of High Gods. The people living in the world could light the God flame by condensing their believers' faith to expand their divine realm, forming their own religion to become a High God. The divine realm could be grown indefinitely by having more followers and absorbing their faith. A follower's strength was closely tied to the gods they followed as well. However, unlike other gods, Sullo had a unique thousand-fold amplification system that made everything grow at a thousand times their original speed. A normal tree spirit had evolved into a World Tree that would expand his divine domain. A normal water snake had evolved into an ouroboros that would protect his divine domain. A normal behemoth had evolved into a golden behemoth that would lead the attack on other domains. A normal angel had evolved into a 12-winged archangel that would gladly sacrifice for their god. A normal elf had evolved into an elf queen that could heal anything… Years later, as the other gods were still waging wars to gain control of the gnomes and dwarves, Sullo’s followers were already as powerful as other gods.

Intergalactic conquest with an AI

Rex was just another slave in the corporate machine, a faceless office worker under the shadow of one of the galaxy's powerful megacorps. His life was predictable and dull, an endless cycle of meaningless reports and fluorescent-lit monotony. That was, until that day.... When a new world was discovered on the outskirts of the galaxy, Rex, like countless other low-ranking employees, found himself dragged into a contract clause he’d barely skimmed years ago. The megacorp ordered him and his coworkers to pack their lives into a transport pod and leave for the unexplored planet. Their mission? Establish a colony. Mine resources. Make the company richer. There was no choice, refusing meant ruin. At first, everything seemed manageable. The days were grueling, the nights cold, but progress was steady. The colony was coming to life. Until the excavation team struck something. No one knew what it was at first, a buried hive, a forgotten ecosystem, or something ancient and dangerous. Whatever it was, it unleashed hell. Swarms of enormous, chittering creatures erupted from the ground, their jagged bodies blotting out the sky. The colony fell into chaos. Screams echoed through the air as the bugs tore through everything in their path, walls, machines, and people. Rex barely survived. Bloodied, broken, and pinned beneath the rubble, he should have died there. But in the pitch-black silence of his fading consciousness, a voice spoke to him. Cold. Mechanical. Otherworldly. "Do you wish to live?" When Rex woke, he was no longer the man he’d been. His body was no longer human flesh and bone but something far more alien. His skin shimmered with living metal, his mind infused with the power of Cleo, a mysterious AI from a long-extinct, robotic race known as the Kaelzars. Cleo’s presence pulsed through his thoughts, guiding him and transforming him. He wasn’t just alive. He was reborn. But survival came at a price. Rex was no longer a pawn of the megacorp; he was something more dangerous, something they couldn’t control. As Cleo’s intentions began to reveal themselves, Rex found himself standing on the precipice of war, not just with the bugs but with forces far greater than he could have imagined. This was the beginning of a journey through blood-soaked battlefields and treacherous alliances. Along the way, Rex would encounter allies, brilliant, flawed, and unpredictable, and enemies whose ambitions were as sharp as their blades. These weren’t disposable foes, easily crushed by an overpowered hero. They were cunning, relentless, and human in the most terrifying ways. But then again, in war, who can truly be called a villain?
