The Hunter-Zhang Archives Book 1: The Book of Jade
Lei Zhang has always known what he wants and it is not to be what his father wanted him to be. Armed with memories not of earth, he tries to cope with the fact that the friends he has now were the same friends he used to have in his old life, only quite different. Same faces, but entirely different people. When he thought he had finally escaped his fate and started living a mundane life, his destiny came chasing him, and the friends he came to love got dragged into it. Let's not forget one Artemis Hunter who turns out to be more unordinary than she already is.

In a world where technology and magic intertwine, humanity's fate hangs in the balance. A powerful force known as the "Deadlock" threatens to plunge the world into chaos, as ancient prophecies foretell. Amidst this turmoil, a group of unlikely heroes awakens with mysterious abilities, marking the dawn of a new era—the era of "New Genesis."
As the Deadlock spreads, warping reality and corrupting both magic and machines, the chosen heroes must uncover the secrets of their unique powers. Guided by fragmented visions and ancient scrolls, they journey across treacherous landscapes, facing formidable adversaries and uncovering hidden truths about their world's history.
The heroes' intertwined destinies lead them to the heart of the Deadlock's source—a rift between dimensions. With each step they take, the boundaries between magic and technology blur, and the heroes discover that their powers are the key to restoring balance. "Deadlock: New Genesis" is an exhilarating tale of courage, sacrifice, and the unbreakable bonds forged in the crucible of destiny.
In the year 0146, a century after the cataclysmic event known as The END Apocalypse, humanity has rebuilt a world more advanced than ever before and resets their calendar. Once torn apart by a war between mythical beasts—the mighty dragons and leviathans—the Earth’s landscape has been forever reshaped, and monsters born from the rage and negativity of that war continue to haunt civilization.
Peace was briefly restored by a group of elite warriors known as the Pacifiers, who harnessed a new and mysterious form of battle arts beyond human imagination. Their efforts quelled the mythical creatures, but now they face a new, darker challenge: the monstrous creatures that emerged from the apocalypse’s aftermath. To protect humanity, the Pacifiers formed global associations, fighting relentlessly to keep these malevolent forces at bay.
Despite advanced technology and progress, the human world is still plagued by the ancient problems of inequality, poverty, and social unrest. Amid this fractured world is Ken, an orphan whose harsh upbringing has left him with little hope for the future. That is, until he encounters Beni, one of the strongest Pacifiers of the current era, and Ken's master. With his guidance, Ken’s life takes an unexpected turn as he is thrust into a world of battle, monsters, and political intrigue, where he must discover his own strength and purpose.
The balance between peace and destruction hangs by a thread, and the true nature of the monsters may hold the key to humanity’s future. In a world caught in a deadlock between hope and despair, Ken must rise above his past and find his way to his unknown future.
What do you know about the origin of everything? You were there? Can you deny what the book of the four will reveal on its pages? Can you say? How to deal with such devastating power. A book that, if read, can bring up ancient, silenced nightmares. The life of Reinaldo and others, unfortunates like him, will change completely when he comes into contact with this simple artifact, apparently, a book, but which in essence manifests in its content echoes of ages so distant and somber that they can drive those who read them mad.
Forget all the unanswered questions that humanity has been asking itself for centuries and ask yourself a single question. What is the book of four? If you dare to embark on this, be warned. I am not responsible for your sanity during and especially after reading. Good luck.
A book that can alter reality to the writer's whims is dropped upon the world.
P.s. Since the Tags have been messed with this novel contains Futanari, Incest, R-18, Female Mc... that's the gist of it more may be added later.
The Greek title, paraleipomena, means “things omitted,” or “passed over” (i.e., in the accounts found in Samuel and Kings). The Books of Chronicles, however, are much more than a supplement to Samuel and Kings; a comparison of the two histories discloses striking differences of scope and purpose. The Books of Chronicles record in some detail the lengthy span (some five hundred fifty years) from the death of King Saul to the return from the exile. Unlike today’s history writing, wherein factual accuracy and impartiality of judgment are the norm, biblical history, with rare exceptions, was less concerned with reporting in precise detail all the facts of a situation than with drawing out the meaning of those facts. Biblical history was thus primarily interpretative, and its purpose was to disclose the action of the living God in human affairs. For this reason we speak of it as “sacred history.”
These characteristics are apparent when we examine the primary objective of the Chronicler (the conventional designation for the anonymous author) in compiling his work. Given the situation which confronted the Jewish people at this time (the end of the fifth century B.C.), the Chronicler realized that Israel’s political greatness was a thing of the past. Yet, for the Chronicler, Israel’s past held the key to the people’s future. In particular, the Chronicler aimed to establish and defend the legitimate claims of the Davidic monarchy in Israel’s history, and to underscore the status of Jerusalem and its divinely established Temple worship as the center of religious life for the Jewish people. If Judaism was to survive and prosper, it would have to heed the lessons of the past and devoutly serve its God in the place where he had chosen to dwell, the Temple in Jerusalem. From the Chronicler’s point of view, the reigns of David and Solomon were the ideal to which all subsequent rule in Judah must aspire. The Chronicler was much more interested in David’s religious and cultic influence than in his political power, however. He saw David’s (and Solomon’s) primary importance as deriving rather from their roles in the establishment of Jerusalem and its Temple as the center of the true worship of the Lord. Furthermore, he presents David as the one who prescribed the Temple’s elaborate ritual (which, in point of fact, only gradually evolved in the Second Temple period) and who appointed the Levites to supervise the liturgical services there.
The Chronicler used a variety of sources in writing his history. Besides the canonical Books of Genesis, Exodus, Numbers, Joshua, and Ruth, and especially the Books of Samuel and Kings, he cites the titles of many other works which have not come down to us, “The Books of the Kings of Israel,” or “The Books of the Kings of Israel and Judah,” and “The History of Gad the Seer.” In addition, the Chronicler’s work contains early preexilic material not found in the Books of Kings.
The principal divisions of 1 Chronicles are as follows:
