The Ancient Genes Chapter 51

"Boom!"
The ground shook as the explosion occurred. Max looked behind me to see the ground crack.
Damn it!
"You idiot, I asked you to create a small hole for us to escape, look what you did." Max spoke as the cracking noise got stronger and crack started to extend on the walls and pillars.
"Thud!"
The door of the entrance fell without his support.
Shit!
"Max, we haven't got time for this. Jump!" Max heard Axle's voice and saw him jump with the girls around him.
Well, that was do or die.
'My luck, do me a favor and don't let us get buried under the rubbles.'
And Max jumped after making sure no one was left behind.
"Don't let him go. Catch him!!"
Hearing the voice behind him, he couldn't help but smiled as he raised his middle finger while falling.
Yes, those bastards deserved that.
…
"Damn it, they are gone.", One of the men in the storage room spoke.
"What are you looking for then? Let's follow them. If we can't find them. We would be dead anyway.", Another one spoke.
Those two were the ones who had earlier allowed Max and Axle to pass.
It was entirely their fault. They would face the harshest punishment if not death. So they were trying to get others to help them to save their butts as they didn't have confidence in catching them alone.
But who knew, death was already upon them.
The cracks extending from the grounds moved in all directions and then connected up on the ceiling.
How can the structure hold any long?
The ceiling crumbled and the man along with his two other comrades was crushed into meat patties.
"Splash! "
Their blood splattered and in a while, more of it started to flow out of the rubbles.

But, the dozen people standing outside the door flinched only for a second before someone shouted.
"The hole is blocked, quickly remove the rubbles or else they would get away."
With his statement, everyone realised the dire circumstances as they started their labour to get the rubbles out.
...
In the Sewers.
Max got up and wiped up his face as a dirty stench infiltrated his nose.
Looking around, he found 7 girls around him. The light in that place was dim. He could see some figures in the distance.
'Did we get flowed down here?'
"Girls, let's go. We need to gather with others and leave this place soon."
On Max's command, every one of them got up and started following him obediently.
They were very quiet.
But, he doubted anyone could remain cheerful after those incidents.
"I found him, Big Brother Hero."
'Yes, I forgot there was still her.'
Max turned around to see Mia running towards him with 9 girls behind her.
"You all are here, only a few more and we will all be back.."
With their small little group, they started moving.
….
"Yuck!! What's this? "
"Ahhhh!!! "
Hearing the scream, Max immediately sprinted in its direction through the dirty water.
"Puddle"
"Splash!"
'Don't tell me they followed us.'
But as he reached the place, he couldn't help but felt a headache.
"What happened?", hearing the voices, Max turned around to see Axle behind him.
"I can't take her."
Hearing me, Axle looked ahead and frowned.
It was Lisa creating a ruckus. Looking at her face, Max felt that she would have gladly stayed behind if she knew there was a sewer down below.
"Leave her be ", Axle said.
But suddenly, they couldn't help but let out a curse at the same time as the rumbling sound entered their ears.

Shit!
They could see the hole in the ceiling directly above Lisa's head.
Is she an idiot.The first thing she should have done was to move out of there.
'Don't tell me she was waiting to be crushed down by the rubbles.'
Damn!
'I can't make it in time.'

Savage Hunters
Giant monsters roam the land Civilization is frozen in a savage age. For the beast slayer Alden, power and survival are one and the same. The ancient evil that once ravaged his village and murdered his ancestors has returned. At the same time, politics hurls Alden and his crew into gladiator pit battles for control of the throne. When Alden takes possession of a cursed sword promising untold power, the hunter is determined to save his people by slaying every giant monster standing between him and the throne. But the angry ghost trapped inside the blade has other ideas. Buckle up for the brutal LitRPG ride of a lifetime Savage Hunters is an alternate-world neolothic fantasy. Characters grow their powers with explicit stat blocks presented right in the text, including levels, attribute scores, and unlockable skill trees. Experience is accumulated by battling enormous monsters the size of buildings. Political intrigue and romance elements ramp up as the series progresses. I originally wrote this story after playing Monster Hunter with my niece. She was 12 at the time, already an avid reader, and wanted to read my other published books. I'm a licensed psychotherapist specializing in severe trauma so I tend toward darker fiction. I told her my usual books are too brutal for her but I'd write her something special. The result was this series, which has been praised by both teens and adults for its depth and universal appeal. It begins with an emphasis on cultural elements because I consulted with a trained anthropologist to craft this neolithic setting down to exacting social detail. After these opening chapters, it rapidly shifts to an action-packed adventure. The first 3 books are fully written as of November 2020, totalling approximately 69 chapters. The first book has been professionally edited already. The following two books require some editing which I'll do on a chapter-by-chapter basis as releases progress. I welcome reviews and comments. Writing is a passion, and reader engagement makes my labor all the sweeter.

Avaria: A Pay To Win Adventure
Avaria is a game like world where the wealthy are the strong. Want more strength, a specific skill or spell, well there's an item for that. If you can get it of course. These items are rare and far from plentiful, hoarded by the wealthy that can afford them. Acquired from Avaria itself, these items are dropped from strong monsters and dungeons, so if someone doesn't have the money, they must get it the hard and dangerous way. Don’t worry though, even the poor are born with at least one skill or spell that could help them in life, apart from the basic mana skills that everyone is born with. Usually these skills and spells are passed down from a parent. Of course, that doesn't mean they can use it. Any skills from birth are locked and unusable to start. Unlockable through great effort and practise, something many are unable to do without some guidance. There is another much quicker way however, through gaining experience from killing monsters and using that experience to unlock it. Adam is a human summoned to this world from earth. What effect can he have on this world when he is given a skill that he knows can be used to help many people, with the desire to do just that. Unfortunately it won't be so easy, as there are many obstacles in his way. It’s a cruel world, but he will have help and doesn’t have to do it alone as he meets new companions and makes friends along the way. Lianna is another human from earth who is summoned the same time as Adam. Though things go much differently for her as she is quickly enslaved, beaten and tortured. Unable to understand what her enslavers are telling her, she has a difficult time following through with the commands given to her. Forced to fight creatures and level up against her will. Authors Note: Aiming to post 1 chapter/week, while writing at least 1 chapter/week.
