《Rise Of The Worm Sovereign》Name?

"Crimson Eyed Emerald Worm." Lin Wu declared.
As soon as Lin Wu spoke the notification sound appeared once again.
~Ding~
—————————————————————————————————
NOTIFICATION: The host has given a designation to their species. The Host data will now be updated.
—————————————————————————————————
Lin Wu was actually unable to think of any impressive sounding name for his species, thus he decided to go along with his physical appearance. He himself had crimson red eyes and an emerald green body, thus it just seemed obvious to name himself that.
"While it may not be too overbearing, at least it sounds good enough." Lin Wu assured to himself.
'Now then, what am I supposed to do now?' Lin Wu thought and curled back into a thinking posture.
Now that he had completed the main quest, which was to reach the qi refining realm, he wondered if he would get any more quests. But even after waiting for it, he didn't receive it. The main quest that he had received was rather stressful as it was a question of life and death, thus it seemed to be more urgent.
But now that his life span had reached a hundred and fifty years, Lin Wu discovered that he felt a little lost. He realized that he had no goal in life now, and he needed one.
"What was it that I wanted to do in the previous life? I remember wanting to play video games all the time, wanting to eat all the amazing food I saw on the television and on social media. Oh! and how could I forget, I also had an immense love for the 'Elixir' energy drinks?" Lin Wu muttered to himself.
'Hmm, I can't seem to decide on anything. What do the protagonists of cultivation novels do when they arrive there? Become immortal, I guess, oh and get jade beauties. Jade beauties are important, of course.' Lin Wu thought to himself.

But after having these thoughts, Lin Wu looked at himself once again. All he had right now was a worm's body that looked a little beautiful as it was crystalline.
'There's no way I can get any Jade beauties this way. Neither can I have the delicious food from this world as that would involve going to the human settlements, and I think it will be pretty suspicious if a Green Crystal worm like me swaggered in. I would definitely get captured or worse… killed.'
'As for the 'Elixir' energy drinks, I definitely don't think I will find them here. And even if there is something similar here, it would not be the same if it does not have the same amazing taste that gave you a euphoric rush.' Lin Wu thought with a little obsessive expression.
Unknown to him, he had actually started drooling as he thought of the 'Elixir' energy drink series. He then suddenly snapped out of his thoughts and realized what he did.
"Why am I reacting like this again? Seems like I really need to wait for my soul to stabilize or I'll return to my previous childish ways." Lin Wu stated to himself.
"Bah! I'll just ask the system what I should do." Lin Wu decided.
"System, what should I do next? Or what is the next quest?" Lin Wu questioned.
~Ding~
—————————————————————————————————
ANSWER: The system only assigns quest when something of importance or beneficial to the host appears. The host can only wait and explore in order to trigger some quests. As for the host's first inquiry about what to do, the host can increase his cultivation base first.
Accordant to the system's data banks, the main goal of every cultivator should be to increase their cultivation level. Thus the system recommends that the host should utilize the spirit qi in the storage and upgrade their cultivation base.

—————————————————————————————————
After looking at the suggestion of the system, Lin Wu found it to be reasonable. After all, even he knew from his experience of the countless cultivation novels that the main goal of every protagonist was to become immortal and strong.
"Alright system, use the stored spirit qi and upgrade my cultivation base to the next level." Lin Wu ordered.
~Ding~
—————————————————————————————————
NOTIFICATION: Upgrading the host's cultivation base to the next stage.
ANALYZING VITALS: Host vitals are stable, tranquilization is not needed.
—————————————————————————————————
Lin Wu felt a little surprised that he did not need to be tranquilized now. Every time he had upgraded his cultivation level before, he had been tranquilized by the system. But now it seemed to be unnecessary.
"Well, that's an improvement at least." Lin Wu muttered to himself and then went silent as he felt the change.
A wave of energy was spreading in his body, and it seemed to glow for a moment. The underground lake was once again filled with a green glow that spread out from the opening at the top. Though unlike before, the green light was not as strong and faded away after a couple of seconds.
Lin Wu could now sense another change. He could feel as if there was a strange stream of energy filling his body. The energy seemed to have appeared out of nothing and was filling incorporeal looking veins that he could only think were meridians.
The energy that was filling him was formless and colorless, yet the feeling of comfort that accompanied it was rather pleasant to him. He felt as if he was taking a soak in a hot spring or as if he was getting an amazing massage by a jade beauty.
The feeling finally passed away after a few seconds, and Lin Wu opened his eyes. The notification sound finally rang in his mind and the new screen appeared.
~Ding~
—————————————————————————————————
UPGRADE COMPETED: The host had successfully reached the next cultivation stage. Please check the host data for more information.

'That was pretty quick, I thought it would take much longer than this.' Lin Wu thought, feeling a bit surprised.
"System, show me the Host data." Lin Wu ordered.

The Adventures of Alan
What happens when a university professor somehow ends up in another world, where magic bends the laws of nature? Alan is, albeit unwillingly, about to find out. As a professor of physics, he has a decent understanding of how the world works, or so he likes to think. Armed only with his knowledge, Alan is thrown into a world very different from his own. In his new reality, he will meet both friends and foe, he will seek knowledge, he will build power, and perhaps he will even find love again? Follow Alan through his adventures, and find out for yourselves how he deals with the challenges thrown at him by a new world, while struggling with the issues brought with him from his old one. * Author’s note: A fair warning. This is the first time I’ve published anything, and basically the first time I’ve written anything more than mandatory school-stuff. The story will probably have inconsistencies, grammatical errors (not my native tongue, though that excuse is getting old), and potentially confusing (missing?) plot. I will naturally do my best to write something worth reading, but my main goal in writing this story is to have fun and explore the limits of my own creativity. My hope in publishing it here, is that I’ll reach someone who enjoy the story, and can push me forward towards writing more, as it is difficult at times to find the motivation to write just for myself. Additionally, I can’t really promise to have regular updates, as I have a full-time job that often likes to take the ‘full-time’ part literally, and a sporadic social life that occasionally surprises me (happy surprises mostly, so I shouldn’t complain). I’ll aim for once a week to start with, and take it from there. Happy reading! Cover photo by Jeff Hire (/photographer/gun4hire-58415), from https://freeimages.com/.

Contact First
2039 - Earth A narrow beam energy signal appeared aimed squarely at earth from the TRAPPIST system. The communication consisted of a layered set of repeating data over several thousand wavelengths. Over the next few months scientists discovered that the lower wavelengths carried an encoded numerical language which could then be used to interpret the more complicated messages carried on the higher wavelengths. After half a year of painstaking work the signal was fully decoded. It described a small satellite launched along a precise trajectory towards the fourth planet of our solar system. Included was a package of advanced research that humanity would need to have ready in order to receive the satellite and decelerate it safely. The alien data provided the kick that humanity needed to turn from petty squabbling and unite to explore the final frontier. Major government and corporate leaders worked together to create the framework for the United Federation of Sol. UFS spaceports went from scaffolding to daily launches in every major city around the globe. Ships floated like dandelion seeds, spreading on solar wind to grow into colonies. 2397 - Mars orbit, Egeria Station The command center was a hive of activity as checks were conducted and systems initialized. Scientists flitted by like mayflies as communicators beeped and holoscreens spat out green tinted readouts. Nervous energy was thick in the air as everyone anticipated the culmination of over three hundred years of work. Massive fusion reactors under the planet's surface thrummed with barely restrained power as energy fed into a gleaming metallic maze criss crossing the planet. Metal fingers reached up, overshadowing the mighty olympus mons and trying to grab the stars. All over the solar system, people quickly turned to look as gigantic energy lances shot from the dusty fourth planet. Two years later. The same people that clapped loudly at the successful activation of project Hermes now wait with baited breath. A silver capsule trailing bright photonic sails is captured by a net of grav beams and guided with care bordering on reverence into the station. Holoscreens across the headquarters project an image of the sleek craft settling in the bay. Data connections are established and the holoscreens blink to white. Slowly an image forms on the screen. Across the headquarters people stare in wonder as a wholly alien face stares back. "Contact established. Welcome to the universe."
