“King Beetle was the super powerful biological weapon that we are using against the Zerg, but in the first batch, we only succeeded in cultivating one. As originally planned, we would be making a second batch and carrying out a deeper analysis of optimizing the new species… But no one could have imagined that, in the final stages of the second batch of manufacturing experiments, a mob suddenly stormed our base from the outside… Cough… cough…” At this point, the NPC on the screen coughed up a large plume of blood from its mouth, but his words continued.
“Cough… This group of people, they wanted to release the brain worm. I could never let them get away with it because it would have terrible consequences… Cough… However, these people planned it out quite thoroughly, they destroyed the external defensive weapons system, even the army squad guarding the lab was killed off by them. Fortunately, the internal laboratory and the external base are completely separated and with internal help, although these people broke into the core laboratory, I was in control of the highest authority in the laboratory… Cough… I activated the M-723 nerve gas. The enemy would all die under the influence of the poison gas, but I have also been fatally wounded in the previous attack, I can not hold on any longer… cough… cough… I re-modified the base’s intelligent procedures and stored this information in the core component chip of this N-900 Scout bracelet, set to send signals to the outside in intervals… Although I don’t know what way you took to get here, or whether it’s because you got the signal… But hopefully, anyone does the following after seeing this whole message. For the safety of our planet and human civilization as a whole, I hope you can send the Brain Worm to the A-2 experimental base under the bed of the Dead Jungle, or put it in the hands of Duke Rose Sam. Believe me, as long as you complete the task, you will enjoy endless prosperity and glory and become a hero of the entire planet… cough, cough…” The white male NPC in the picture coughed violently, spewing a lot of fresh blood from his mouth and nose, then the picture shook and disappeared completely.

“Whoosh!”
After the picture disappeared, the floating Legendary-Grade bracelet glowed with white light and shone on a piece of metal in the center of the lab.
Just as before, the memory metal floor that was illuminated by this white light, began to melt to reveal a huge passageway.
A few seconds later, a huge square-shaped object rose from under the metal passage, unfolding in front of everyone.
It’s a transparent safe similar to the one Feng Luo saw in the pet chips wastelands, but it was thicker than the one that contained the Boss chip. Within this particular memory metal, the defense mechanism was tighter than the one containing the Boss chip.
However, this was quite normal because the thing that was stored in this safe was what appeared in the previous projection, the human brain-like giant worm – Brain Worm.
[“You triggered the next series of missions…”]
At the moment the Brain Worm appeared, the system’s tips were also brushed in front of everyone’s sight.
This mission was not finished, there was the next series.
“This kind of serial mission, with this background plot… it feels like the level isn’t low, there is a chance there is a big reward!” Boss Meng looked at the mission on the system and exclaimed. “But… What is this Brain Worm… it seems to be dead. If we deliver it over, does it still count as completing the mission?”
The transparent safe does indeed contain the Brain Worm, but the mucus on the surface of the body had completely dried up, and even the original dark brown color had completely turned gray-black. Its volume had been shrunk to no more than a quarter of its original size, it had no life fluctuations, it felt like it was beyond dead.
“There’s no hint of life on the Scouting instrument, it should be dead.” Mu Zi used a Scout skill and looked at his Scouting instrument.
“It must be dead, these remains were from at least 20 or 30 years ago, which creature would be able to survive decades without eating or drinking?” Boss Meng, with his golden gladius, patted the transparent safe. The result was that it simply could not cause any damage to it, and the Brain Worm inside had no movement at all.

“The task is to just ask to send things to the destination, and it didn’t mention that it needed to be alive or dead. We just have to hand over the body of this Brain Worm to Duke Rose Sam. Why does the name Duke Rose Sam sound so familiar?” Boss Meng seemed to have recalled something, as he patted his oily and shiny forehead to think.
“The characters who appeared in the first chapter of the official background story of War, Old Meng, can’t you recall it directly?” Jiao Zong seemed to have gotten a chance to scorn as he impatiently blurted out.
“Backstory? F*ck, there are too many backstories in War, up to millions of words and videos. At most taking a rough scan through it, and only going onto the forum to check the information when needed, who would spend their time checking the details one by one?” Boss Meng frowned as he shook his head.
“Me, I would, I spent a month initially, just to study backstories. Old Meng, you know why you are always unable to be better at the game than I am? The backstory in this game will reveal a lot of useful information.” Jiao Zong pointed to his nose with his face full of pride.
“Stop being cocky, just quickly say it out loud.” Thorned Rose, who was next to him, glared at him.
There was no access to the forum in the underground ruins, everyone wanted to know the information about Duke Rose Sam who was related to this mission, but they only were able to obtain this information after Jiao Zong showed off.
“Cough, cough… Our planet, before the ‘great destruction’ found in the backstory, was ruled by a family with the last name ‘Sam.’” Jiao Zong was afraid by his strict wife who gave him an impatient glare, and had no choice but started talking immediately.
“Wait, the game backstory of the Galaxy Empire was called empire by name, but aren’t they run by federalism? Why would a family rule over a planet?” Boss Meng questioned.
“Oh, that was very normal. The Galaxy Empire, although it ran itself with a federal system, it grew too fast after entering the universe, and federal regulation could play a role in the early stages of expansion. At the end of the day, when the entire Galaxy Empire had thousands of Administrative Stars and it would take decades to navigate amongst each other, how would the central government be able to take control of each planet again? Yes, you don’t interrupt!” Jiao Zong scorned Boss Meng with some dissatisfaction as he continued to talk about the backstory of the planet in the game.
“This Sam family is a large integrated enterprise that involves military, medicine, bioengineering, and other aspects. Well, you can refer to the current Umbrella Company now. Of course, this Sam family was stronger than the Umbrella Company. With the transformation of the human living environment of this Administrative Star, the clean-up of the original creatures, the security guards, energy supply, mineral mining, and so on are all contracted by it. It can be said that this company has a monopoly on all the industries on the planet. Monopoly, of course, is synonymous with dictatorship and ambition, and this ambition officially erupted more than a hundred years ago when a man named Rose Sam came to power as the regional army and chief executive. In his name, he issued a large number of laws, seized all civilian weapons of mass destruction, and banned private research on high-tech weapons or military technology, and only distribute very outdated firepower weapons to the government military… He monitored everyone’s communications and whereabouts, not allowing anyone to contact the outside world without their permission. Since the military was entirely under his control, the whole planet was essentially controlled by the Sam Group. Under the ambition of Duke Rose Sam, the whole planet had been made into an independent kingdom of his, and he had the power to kill anyone on the whole planet.”

The trouble starts even before their friendship does: intense jealousy, a hidden serial killer and the revival of a life-long nightmare. They ask themselves if things could get any worse, and not surprisingly, they can.
8 64Thief of Time
[Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Book 1: The Legend of Tot Synopsis: Claud Primus, a self-declared master thief, has a simple goal. To live forever. It's a rather easy task, for miraculous objects called lifestones are able to extend one's lifespan. These lifestones are best found in the treasuries of nobles, lovely resorts that Claud pays a visit to every so often. Unfortunately, one of those nightly visits go awry, and Claud is forced to escape with just a single lifestone and a box in hand. Normally, that's when things die down. The guards yawn, the gates close, and the night continues. But this time, the night isn't that forgiving. A dozen schemes result in the murder of someone important, and with a convenient scapegoat — Claud — at hand, it doesn't take long for him to be framed as a heinous criminal, wanted for the indirect murder of someone high up...and it just gets worse from there. Book 2: The Moon Lords' Rise Synopsis: As ordered chaos sweeps across Licencia, Claud leaves for Julan Barony, intent on making some profits there. Accompanied by the erstwhile heiress of Julan, a fellow member of the Moon Lords, the two plot against the barony's wealth...as well as a promise to bring about its downfall. Meanwhile, back home, the Moon Lords have busied themselves with digesting their gains. Eyes, however, are beginning to turn to this proverbial fish in a small pond. The fishermen are coming. When they cast their hook, what will Dia and the others do? Book 3: Murders under the Moons Synopsis: In the sleepy town of Nachtville, where Claud and Lily are forced to stop at, a set of nasty murders occurs. Victims scream out in fright, before a spear falls from the sky to end their suffering. Cowed and cautious, the master thief and his partner slink in the shadows, their objective that of home... A new task, however, has fallen on Dia. With a trusty helper at her side, she has to set off towards Nachtville itself, to solve the mystery Claud had abandoned. Faced with an enemy whose sole skillset is geared towards killing, how will they succeed? And what dark secrets will they find? Book 4: In the Dark of the Moons Synopsis: The year has ended. The four months of the full moons will soon be followed by two months of the new moons. Duke Istrel's ascension is around the corner. Amidst this political upheaval, Count Nightfall, Licencia's strongest defender, has been called away. The Moon Lords' largest task yet — to protect Licencia in the absence of its ruler — has begun. And yet, trouble is unrelenting. A distinguished personage, one that Claud fears, has been found dead in the county, his brains dug out and his body disemboweled. The inquisitors of the White Church have been dispatched to investigate and apprehend the murderer...as well as the person behind this puppet. Tormented by a call to fight, Claud directs his eyes out of the city, looking for the puppetmaster. Skulking in the shadows, the master thief will soon confront his greatest foe yet. A foe just like him. Book 5: Moonlit Tides and Darkened Seas Synopsis: A new era has begun. For the privileged, the sands of time dribble away for every passing moment, counting down to the arrival of a entity of mythical proportions. The night now harbours shadows and fog, and operatives of the Moons and the Dark clash in shadow. Claud, as usual, is investigating a spate of nasty disappearances in the city, but little does he know what these disappearances truly mean. And yet, a tide is coming. When it finally breaks, what will he do? Book 6: Secrets in Shadow Synopsis: The person behind a strike that would enter the annals of history flees his home, bringing with him the person closest to his heart into a new land and into a new world. Having left Istrel for the first time in his life, the two of them attempt to settle down in foreign lands, only to be caught in the middle of hostilities between two mighty powers grappling for dominion. Yet, none of that has anything to do with him. Following his desires, Claud eventually makes his way to the fabled Celestia Ruins, a fragment of another world. Bearing witness to truths he cannot yet comprehend, he returns from his exploration, a small break away from the machinations of destiny. One thing, however, is for certain. Destiny will not wait for him. Book 7: Reddest Rage Synopsis: Destiny churns on, heedless of mortal machinations, and Claud watches as the battlegrounds between the Moons and the Dark are drawn up. With the forces of the great Dark occupying Lostfon, Claud comes to a startling realisation — that he may have very well be a murderer of heinous proportions. Grappling with that realisation, he struggles to prepare for his Second Tutorial... Back in Istrel, Dia finds herself confronted with a perennial truth. Even in a time of writhing destiny, the machinations between nobles never cease to end — and unfortunately for her, the group once known as the Moon Lords are forced into dealing with a petty squabble between two counts. What they didn't account for, however, was the startling discovery they would soon make... And the shadow of the Red God's Holy Son behind it all. Book 8: Darkness Descends Synopsis: Nightmares haunt the horizon as Claud sinks and awakens from a seeming dream. What was once illusory begins to play out before him, in a way he cannot imagine. Dia, forced to wield arms, begins and ends a battle that opens her eyes to the vast dangers that lurk in this sundered world. Under the banner of humanity and divinity, she beholds the silent, forgotten protectors of Orb...but there is no forgetting the battle between the divinities. The Dark descends, the Moons writhe, and the horns of war blow once more. But this is not their battle. Not yet. Book 9: Moons Muster Synopsis: As more and more events fall into place, Claud finds himself desperate. Not for himself, but for the person who has turned into his world. Armed with the knowledge of a certain future, he approaches the only person that could possibly help him in his time of need, trading information for a promise of help. With that as solace, he returns to the grim task of understanding and seeking, revisiting an ancient, shattered fragment of another world...unleashing changes that he never knew was possible. Back in Istrel, Dia and the others must now navigate around a familiar spirit, who seeks to investigate the death of his master's Bearer. With them as prime suspects, the Seekers of Life must move carefully...but the Coloured Gods are not the only divinities eyeing them closely. The Moons, bristling from repeated defeats, are looking for new recruits, and the Seekers of Life are prime cannon fodder. Above all, destiny marches on, the unfeeling clock a warning to all. The Trial of Aeons will soon arrive. Book 10: Destiny Divine Synopsis: ??? Release frequency: one every few days or something, I guess. (This work is also being serialised on Webnovel under the name Revile as a trial run)

8 162A Wish Fulfilled
The die is cast and omnipotent beings bow to the result. The world holds still in anticipation of a new actor. A man shall be ripped from his safe reality and cast upon new tapestry, familiar yet alien. His body will be reforged in flames of adversity. His mind, challenged, by crashing waves of doubt. And his soul will dance, to the amusement of those who observe. “Welcome, castaway, to the new world. Partake in its bounties and revel in its beauty, but be mindful of dangers. Your will is unbound and trials aplenty. The wish carried you here and you will define yourself anew. Live, as you see fit. Now, that the contract is fulfilled, it’s time. We shall not meet again, nor will you remember me. Farewell.” A falling star lights the skies and the die continues to roll. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
