Traclaon Armageddon

Alex Kozlowski

C46/100
Eric Peters has been reborn — sent back in time to change humanity's fate. After experiencing a future where all of humanity's planets and colonies had been purged, Eric refused to fall, and an Entity chose him to be humanity's last hope. The Reborn are galactic boogiemen — myths used to terrify children and curb the aggression of advanced alien civilizations, usually granted powers able to destroy star systems. But in Eric's case, the Entity gave him abilities barely classed as special. With only his memories and a couple of minor boons, he must survive evil elements within humanity, circling alien races, and change history enough so that when the Traclaon Empire declares war, his species can fight back.

KaeNovels

C45/100
Li Hao is transmigrated into a Xianxia cultivation world and thrust into the life of a servant in the Azure Cloud Sect. He has the worst quality trash five-element spiritual roots — in any other's position, he'd be chopping wood and eating inferior pills for the rest of his life. However, he binds with a system that can upgrade everything. A burnt, poisonous pill? One upgrade away from a priceless Marrow Cleansing Elixir. An old cracked butter knife? A few upgrades from a blade that slices through Demonic Serpent Scales. With his upgrade ability, Li Hao climbs through a world of sects, clans, and royal dynasties in constant war — accumulating magic items, spirit stones, and wealth along the way.

C45/100
In a future where top gamers are celebrities, Liam is pulled into an obscure virtual world called the Crucible Shard — starting at level one with no gear, no skills, and no roadmap.

As Liam rises from penniless player to King of Galea, he must contend with unreliable allies, relentless enemies, and a goddess who has promised to be his destruction. The line between the virtual world and Earth blurs as artificial intelligences pursue their own ambitions across both realms.

Return of the Martial Messiah

ToraAKR

C45/100
ZionLine's promise was irresistible: triple your lifespan. The price? Surviving an unknown world rife with brutal combat, where gruesome deaths are terrifyingly real. For a desperate humanity, it was a price worth paying. But beneath the time dilation's gleaming facade lies a horrific truth that Earth's elite will kill to conceal. Raine KongRu has seen this future before — he lived through the captivity it heralds, and he knows there is precious little time to consolidate his power before millions die again. Under the guise of Alaric, Raine is hunted by those with the means to see him dead in both worlds. CronGate was once his home, its leaders his mentors, its people his own. They taught him everything he knew — and enslaved him for a lifetime. The feeling is mutual.

Three out of four classes will save her life and bring her home — but only one will let her stand on water, move forward, and save her mother.

Far from the Empire's light, on a savage world, Angar is forged in fury as a gateway to the abyss tears his homeland apart.

In the dark caverns of a secluded dungeon, Click the spider is born with the impossibly rare gift of great Intelligence. Only the strongest of monsters can hope to survive in the savage dungeon, and Click must make the most of their unique abilities to come out on top — or at least alive. Click can best be described as Lawful-Neutral, finding merit in making and benefitting from allies rather than trampling everything underfoot. Not a hero, but definitely not a mindlessly evil villain.
