《Stuck in a zombie world with an OP shop》Chapter 11
Advertisement
In the morning, Ryan yawns before remembering his situation. As silently as he can, he takes his sword from under the couch and begins to walk through every room of the house. Once having confirmed that no zombies are inside, he returns to the couch and lays down. While laying down, Ryan collects his thoughts.
The house has been looted of its apocalypse-valuable supplies. The gun safe, which is located between the couch and the bathroom in the basement, is closed and locked tight, but the gun bags which normally sit on top are gone. Since the family truck is still in the garage, it's highly likely, Ryan thinks, that his parents took whatever they could carry and left with a third party.
Without any other options, Ryan finds a sheet of paper and a pen and starts to write a note. On the note, he writes his current condition and that he will return to the house every Saturday. Ryan leaves the note on the coffee table and then suits up.
When putting on his clothes and filling his pockets, Ryan leaves the adjustable wrench and whatever else he didn't both to include in the list of his supplies. They're all unnecessary weight, and he can easily buy replacements from the shop. After buying a box of cereal and eating a few handfuls, Ryan leaves the box on the table and leaves his parents' house.
Now, Ryan wants to increase his credits again. He can't explain why gaining credits inside the manhole were extremely simple. For some reason, zombies spawned much more frequently inside the sewer. So, to increase his credits the fastest, Ryan needed to return.
The drive to the manhole is only around thirty minutes long. Once near the van, Ryan drives the car up so it's on the left side of the van with the driver's door facing the van. This way, he'll easily be able to enter the car without spending too much time in the open. With the car parked and the keys zipped inside a pocket of his motorcycle jacket, Ryan slips under the van and into the manhole.

The inside of the manhole is exactly as Ryan remembers it, minus the pile of zombies at the bottom. To fix that, Ryan buys a 10 credit glass of water and, after drinking the water, drops the glass. A few seconds later, the manhole bottom is swarmed by zombies. Since he left his spear in the bar, which burned uncontrolled all night, Ryan buys another spear for 300 credits.
Then, just like the morning two days ago, he resumes the slaughter of helpless zombies.

The Ancient Core: A Progression Fantasy
The title of [The Ancient One] is bestowed upon an unassuming, forgotten Core. Hidden deep underground, it lies in wait, biding its time as it learns the rules of its surroundings. Roaming beasts and unknown threats surely threaten the little rock as it sticks to the darkness, its one true refuge. This is a slow-burning Dungeon-Core fiction with a LitRPG-System. You can expect an extreme amount of kingdom-building, an more in-depth Mana-System, and a Evolution-System. Chapters are between the length of 2-4k words, though the first 50 will likely be closer to 4k. Anything after will have the average be 2.5k. I personally like explaining how things work a lot, so do have that in mind if you decide to read this fiction. Cover is credited to [Asviloka] who can be found on this thread:https://www.royalroad.com/forums/thread/110578 [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]

At The Precipice
Defenseless. Scared. Alone. That describes the life of Brock Carter as of late. Following his ‘death’ at the hands of a vicious magpie, Brock is rescued by the machinations of the newly instated, all-powerful System and thrust knee-deep into a brutal world catered only to the strong. Fluctuating between two states of being and trapped within a city ravaged by time, he is told to either seek out the mysterious ‘Source’, or die trying. He just hopes he can do it without scuffing his expensive suit in the process. ***** Honestly, I've just always wanted to write a story. I had a crack at it a few years back, but the entire thing fell apart before it even began. At The Precipice was originally written as a way for me to destress and play with System elements and characters, but eventually I decided that if I was gonna write, why not post it too? Writing's just a hobby of mine, so don't expect this to be at published novel level, I guess, or even anything of relative polish. Updates every Mon-Tues-Wed-Thurs-Fri Average chapter length is 2000 - 3000 words ***** What to expect: - A semi-comedic/light tone, mixed in with a gritty world and brutal survival (not ever grimdark though) - An MC that thinks about what he's going to do and why he'll do it, even if his internal logic is lacking. Is a rather rational person, not often influenced by his emotions, but can be in extreme situations. - A plot heavily focused upon the MC, but one that will branch off to envelope the other characters in the world at times. Often, it's just other people's perspectives of him. - A story of power growth. While the MC is certainly going to be powerful, even over 100 chapters in from what I've written, he still isn't the strongest being on Earth, let alone the entire Multiverse. - Lots of gore, vivid fight descriptions, and often times deaths of people, some even somewhat important to the story ***** Things this story will never have: - Harems - An edgy, villainous MC - An MC that does jackshit about things for 'plot reasons'

Artisan
Hi everyone, really, really sorry for disappearing on you guys, illness lead to a deep depressive episode that I'm still struggling with. Been thinking about coming back to revamp/finish writing Artisan and noticed a kind reader pointing out my work has been stolen and published on Amazon. The offending novel is The Artisan by Jon Moremont - obviously a GoT fan who didn't even read the blurb properly and put a wizard on the cover. Just wanted to let everyone know that this book has nothing to do with me, and has no new content. Thanks, and sorry again - LF Superhero Litrpg Skills, level-ups, powers, crafting, and base-building. Releasing a chaplet daily, ~1,200 words. It is 2054 and unemployment is at an all-time high. In the era of the quantum computer, autonomous systems have taken over as the backbone of the workforce. Justin, 20 years old and unemployed, has nothing holding him back, and since his government stipend will cover the expense, he signs up to play Imagitech's brand new game: A Time of Heroes. Justin has never been that into multiplayer games, but for a full-immersion virtual reality where he can play a Superhero, Justin is definitely in. 'Superheroes and Villains are on the rise in an alternate America of 2020. Forces of good and evil must band together to control the future'. Justin plays Artisan, an alien AI trapped on Earth.Inventor, hacker, and gadgeteer to a team of heroes. Hope you enjoy. Please feel free to leave reviews and comments.
