《HIVE - LOCKED UP IN SPACE》[Chapter 7] Transition (II)
Advertisement
Thinking back, didn't I receive 3 skill points earlier? Hmm...
Pushing this thought away, the top right-hand side of my Minimap> was blinking. Assuming this was where my apartment was supposed to be located, I headed towards it. While walking towards it, it was already dead at night... the wildlife in the city was really active at night. Birds were chirping, owls hooting and various other bugs like Cicadas, grasshoppers, etc. could be heard off in the distance.
The wildlife in this area was really rich, this was a good thing. Although hunting for meals was still a rather far-fetched idea, it could be possible. Meat should be a valuable commodity, so it was always good to have some because good food was one life's only luxuries. Animals products such as chicken, rabbits or road-kill animals was also a pretty good jump from eating pre-heated canned food, at least quality wise.
This did not come as a surprise to me as most of the buildings here were not well maintained and somewhat abandoned. Maybe it was because this neighborhood was not in the neutral zone, where everything under the sun could be done here without consequences or repercussions. Everything here was fair game, all that mattered at this moment was the strength; because without it, one would not be able to survive in HIVE for long.
In all honesty, HIVE was nothing like how I thought it would be, I wonder how this supposedly helped inmates in their rehabilitation. It was more like a dumping ground for the unwanted; scums of society, lowest of life-forms that were deemed a threat to their fragile peace and order which they were trying to maintain.

"Fuck this is taking forever..." cursing under my breath, my face contorted as I walked towards a car park, rummaging for supplies. While doing so, something else appeared on my

Feeling anxious, this was actually my first time engaging in any form of battle. Hands still stuttering; I quickly rummaged around, taking whatever that could be used to inflict damage on the enemy. A pointed tip with enough room to grab onto an object was ideal, it was either that or a blunt weapon.
While rummaging through, I found a steel pipe lying around one of the broken down cars. Lady luck seemed to be on our side today! This time, without even willing the "system" to examine it, the "system" did it for me instinctively.

Awesome. The adrenaline rush was piling up, there were butterflies in my stomach. My senses felt as though it was temporarily heightened. Maybe this was the fabled "Survivor Mode" that your brain sends you in when in dire straits, facing a do-or-die situation? The rush is amazing, clutching the

8 114His Will Thrice Reborn
Truth is fractured. What urges a person is the small fragment they carry of it, believing it is whole. My family disowned me, and I - the genius cultivator of a generation - was banished from the Falling Star Sect. Make no mistake. No one but I was to blame for the plight I brought upon myself. After being cast out, there was nowhere left for me to go. I applied for a license from the Guild of Independent Cultivators, but I was rejected every time I tried. It seemed the world had no need for a person like me. I thought it was the end. Until I met Mei. The runaway girl in whom I sought refuge - an escape from the past. She was a crutch that kept me going, but our journey together was one far too short. The girl left behind a legacy, although she'd never intended for it. Her life shaped the course of the world more than any emperor could ever dream of, in ways the immortal could never fathom. In the shadow of her history was I. A boy without a cause. Lost, save for that one vow he swore to himself when he stood at the abyss of his life. This is the story of where that vow has led me, and how it first came to be. It begins the day before I met her. *** - An epic xianxia story with lofty ambitions. - Updates twice a week. - Chapters average out on 2k+ words, sometimes varying in length.
8 113Tales of Astora: Insurrection

8 201The Undying Magician
How would a true immortal with average talent in magic fare within a world where magic is everything? In the world of Aria, only a small fraction of the population are classified as magicians.These magicians are able to use magic through the manipulation of the mana they are born with and are the core of the military strength within every nation.However, one nation in particular uses magicians to an even higher extreme than the others.This nation is known as The Republic of Arcania.The largest power in Aria. Our story follows Nathan Fox as he graduates from high school and is sent to the Arcane Academy for his required military training as a magician before he eventually serves his ten year term in the military.Nathan has been a true immortal ever since he got a semi-magical disease that makes any damage done to his body instantly reverse itself, bringing him back to his top form on the day that he became an immortal. Ever since then, it has been impossible for Nathan to die.But there are worse things in the world than death.And if the power-hungry magicians of the world were to learn of Nathan's true immortality?Then he might just experience those things himself. What will happen to Nathan as he traverses life in the academy?Will his secret be found out?Or will he be able to safely make it through the four years of academy life with his secret intact? That has yet to be foretold. The beginning of the story starts out slow for what many Royal Road readers are used to and then speeds up after around chapter 20 or so. It is a school arc, so it is supposed to be slow. Most of the combat and action isn't seen until after these chapters, which you can view as an introduction to the world, the characters, and magic itself. Many of the reviews are outdated due to edits I've been making along the way through the story. Specifically some of the edits going over the world itself, including pointing out in the story some of the things a few of the reviewers missed when they wrote their reviews, along with fixing other things that were pointed out in the story from the reviews and comments. This book is also being edited as it's being written, so some small parts might change as I get suggestions from readers. I do not write harem or sexual content in my stories. Ever.
