Apocalypse Tamer

Maxime J. Durand (Void Herald)

B69/100
Dungeons have torn open across Earth, summoning invaders from alternate realities, waking ancient gods, and empowering humans with levels and classes. The System has issued one directive: whoever reaches level 100 first becomes Earth's new Overgod. A battle royale of worldwide proportions begins — but Basil Bohen doesn't give a crap about the apocalypse. He would rather live in the woods with his monster pets. Unfortunately, people just won't leave him alone.

Master Hunter K

From Hell

B69/100
Without warning, humanity in its entirety was suddenly moved to another dimension. This new world, for all its gifts of wondrous abilities, was a stadium — a deadly arena of unimaginable scale. Every man, woman, and child was given a weapon and ordered to fight. Only two options existed: complete the many trials ahead, or perish. Billions of lives were extinguished in mere moments. But even within this abyss of despair, one small ray of hope existed: if even one person could complete every raid, humanity would be redeemed and restored. No save points, no revives, no retries. Within this marathon of death, one man becomes aware of an exception to the rules.

As he struggles, he discovers that the Ashen Realm is far more than humanity believes — deepening mysteries and a hidden world unfold around him.

Reborn Healer

ghost flower

B69/100
Legendary healers can save cities from the brink of death with a word, but warriors can destroy them just as quickly. Ren will become both. Reincarnated into a world of magic and monsters, Ren discovers something impossible: two magical cores instead of one. One a mana-bound healer, the other a warrior that wields the shadows. But power comes at a cost — his unique abilities attract powerful enemies and strange mysteries as guilds, demons, and kingdoms scheme around him. Fortunately, Ren thrives with his life on the line. What doesn't kill him makes him stronger, and healers are very hard to kill.

His arm now absorbs power from people and weapons alike. The dangers of the Rings of Jupiter once took everything from him. Now he has the chance to make things right — to get revenge.

Mars System Reboot

Dave Willmarth

B69/100
Late 21st-century Earth is overcrowded and resource-depleted. A crew of ten humans are sent to Mars aboard Hyperion I to establish the first colony. Just as they are about to descend to the surface, a careless accident kills a crew member and damages the ship, forcing the others to launch early. On day one they learn that magic is real, and that the planet — in fact the entire galaxy — is governed by a complicated and merciless System. Their assimilation into the System makes them enemies of the paranoid powers that be on Earth, cutting them off from all communications and resupply. On their own on a mostly dead world, nearly every form of life they encounter is out to kill them.

Jayke Cipher was, to his limited knowledge, one of the last people alive. The apocalypse struck Earth swiftly, and the monstrosities that roamed outside became an unavoidable part of his existence. Working from within a heavily defended compound, he watched them through surveillance cameras and cultivated a strange fascination with strange creatures. When the compound is breached and all other options are exhausted, his only option is the pod — a mysterious virtual reality capsule whose producer had released early in light of the apocalypse. He had always thought of it as suicide. But being eaten alive is worse.
