While some were obvious, others were questionable.
"For now, secure the garden, kitchen, swimming pool and rooftops. It is easy to farm points in these areas. Oriole, tell those who would collaborate with us to guard these locations. They can earn points in these places when the eggs spawn, but we only want to harvest a few of the same eggs. The moment you have the eggs, use the egg tray to store them and deliver them directly to the kitchen. I have a use for these eggs."
The Gambler looked a little uneasy. "If we let the others farm points, what will happen to us? I don't want to fall in ranking even if I survive."
Zen understood this. In fact, he didn't want anyone to fall in ranking. They had to earn as many points as possible to climb the rankings. Akiko, in particular, has to climb higher to build her credit balance. If Guild Survivors wanted to take the lead, they had to be richer than Guild Carnage.
"I understand. In fact, I wish that everyone here can move out of Rank E. The more credits you earn, the better it is for the guild. We need information now more than ever, and the only way to buy information is using credits."
Liu Feng agreed. However, he couldn't understand what Zen had in mind. The more Zen spoke about his plan, the more the blind teen was convinced Zen was a mad genius.
"Oriole. When you make the announcement later about everyone not interfering with our mission in the event and not siding with Guild Carnage, be sure to tell them that we are paying them 500 credits each for every black egg they catch and bring to us in one piece."

When Sasha heard that, she blinked. Bring the black egg back in one piece? Why would Zen do that? It was worth the most points, and nobody would trade points for credits, would they?
Her unasked questions were answered. "Nobody else knows the value of these eggs except for us," Zen told them. "The fact that these eggs have abilities is information that only we now know. I might not know what countdown means but the fact that it hates crowding makes me happy. It won't be easy for them to earn that 500 credits. Even so, I need at least one of each egg to craft the Rainbow Egg in the kitchen to end this event."
Zen didn't want to let them know what the Rainbow Egg's recipe was yet. In fact, he told everyone to stay clear of the Black Egg and be very careful when handling the Yellow Egg.
"The Black Egg is a high difficulty catch. Hence, I will entrust it to Akiko-san. Liu Feng, your job is to steal as many egg points as you can while distracting Guild Carnage. You're in charge of raking in credits during this event. Sasha, you're in charge of egg collection runs. If anyone has a unique egg to submit, you will collect it from them and deliver it to the kitchen."
Nobody in Party Godly Food objected. Zen turned to Party Prayer and assigned them intelligence gathering during the event while collecting as many points as possible. Their main mission was to keep an eye on Guild Carnage's activities and the Basilisk's location.
On the other hand, Party Freedom was assigned a high-risk mission of disarming Guild Carnage's recon party.
"Party Undead must be taken down. We cannot afford to let Johan know more than required. I need him to constantly try to take out other players and stall the Basilisk. Gambler, you're in charge. Tracer will use his psychometry to guide you where to ambush them. Steal as much luck as you can. Scorpion and Berserker, take them out as soon as you can. Take Siren out first, followed by Shadow and Ghost. Do not confront them directly. Retreat and regroup if needed. I cannot afford to have anyone out of commission during this game. It's too early to die."

Hearing how Zen intended to crush Guild Carnage from the inside out, Liu Feng was impressed. Zen was a very good advisor. He knew who to target and how. However, the Seer wasn't sure about Party Freedom's chances of success against Party Undead. The blind teen remained silent as Zen told them what points to capture and the possible routes they could use.
"Keep the communications open at all times and report back. Wherever you first spawn, do not move alone. Once the game begins, rush to meet up in the kitchen. The only people who should act alone are Akiko-san and big brother Wind. Sasha, you're my buddy until there are errand calls. Any questions?"
Nobody raised any questions. With their assigned tasks for this event, the mafia heirs and heiresses excused themselves. There were preparations to be done.
Zen did not stick around for long either. He asked for someone to help him settle the dishes as he had somewhere urgent to be. Sasha volunteered after looking at Liu Feng and Akiko. It wasn't appropriate for them to be doing dishes.
Once everyone left Akiko's room, Zen no longer held back what he wanted to say.
"Why aren't you questioning me about the Rainbow Egg recipe and the black egg's ability?"
Liu Feng smirked. "I knew you'd tell us eventually."
Similarly, Akiko nodded, and Zen blushed. Was he so easy to read?
Now that they had privacy, Zen told Liu Feng and Akiko the dangers of collecting the black egg.
"It's explosive. I don't know how to defuse an egg that explodes, but I need some egg parts from it."
===
[Rainbow Egg]
Points: 1,000
Abilities: Can tame the Basilisk.
Other Information: Can only be crafted by following the recipe.
6 white egg wings
5g of black egg gunpowder
2 yellow egg yolks
2g green egg membrane
2g blue egg shell
10 red egg legs
===
"I don't know how many Rainbow Eggs I can craft, but I wish to gather as many materials as I can for everyone to have at one Rainbow Egg. Of course, one would be used to end the game. As long as the Basilisk does not come to the kitchen and Guild Carnage stays away from me, we can produce an endless amount of Rainbow Eggs throughout the event."
When Akiko and Liu Feng heard Zen's plan, they could not help but feel shocked by how rigged the event was. If nobody bought the encyclopaedia, they would be fighting among themselves again to climb the ranks and steal other people's eggs.
500 credits was a small price to pay for Zen's plan. If all twelve Guild Survivor's members made it to the top rankings, the number of credits they had would be higher than what Guild Carnage had. Everyone knew the power of wealth in the mafia, and it was not any different in this Academy.
"What do you say?" Zen grinned. "I fooled them very well, didn't I? We can test their loyalties here and now as well."
Liu Feng ruffled Zen's hair. "You did well. Leave the rest to us now."
Akiko agreed. Making this gamer their advisor was the right choice. For the survival of more than one person, Zen was a necessity.
"Thank you, I have to go back and train now," he told Liu Feng and Akiko before leaving hastily.
Akiko blinked. "Train?"
Even Liu Feng did not know what sort of last-minute training Zen wanted to do. In any case, it was a good opportunity to discuss what Liu Feng discovered yesterday.
"Kanzaki, that Area Boss that Zen discovered gave some very good items. We should save this for our party only."
Akiko agreed. "It's a shame that we don't have more to give the others in the guild for levelling. The dungeon would be cleared a lot faster if we had better consumable items."
"Actually, if you don't mind accompanying me on the middle floors for a while, I can show you how to farm better consumables and equipment for the others in the guild. However, this stays between you and me. Zen discovered this yesterday, and I tested the concept. You'd be amazed."
Curious, the Death Princess agreed. Anything concerning Zen was interesting. Akiko forgot when the last time was that she enjoyed herself so much. This game of death didn't seem all that frightening. On the contrary, Akiko found herself having fun.

Infinite Realm: Monsters & Legends
The world has ended, and those worthy of it have received the chance for a new life in a new reality. Zach grew in power and thrived in the post-Framework world. He became a respected leader, a shining example of what it meant to be good. But as the world ended, he had only one thought: to punish the monster that had killed the world long before the Framework ended it. Yet not even with his incredible power was he able to stand against the World Ender. His arrival in the new realty, the Infinite Realm, gives him the chance to grow stronger, to find the monster again—and make it pay. Ryun survived the chaos after the arrival of the Framework by pushing harder than anyone else. He grew in power until he became the most powerful being that had ever walked the planet; but he is hated by the world, called a monster by all others, the World Ender. As the world ends and he steps into a new one, where people stronger than him have lived for centuries, he finds himself lost and without purpose. The only thing that had mattered to him had been lost to him long ago. He truly was the monster that people considered him to be, and he now finds himself wondering if this new reality has a place for someone like him—but he had never been one for lying down and dying without a fight. One world fell to his power, and another might follow. Current schedule: Monday/Wednesday/Friday Join the Discord: https://discord.gg/ncC5Q7H A polished and edited versions of volume 1, 2, and 3 is avaliable on Amazon. Current Volume: 4 Infinite Realm is a story that will follow two main characters at the start, with a few more joining the cast a bit later. The story will be told in two different time periods: past and present up until volume 3. Past chapters take place in the past on Earth, and take form of flashbacks that follow the two as they struggle to survive and grow their powers in the world changed by the Framework. The main story is in the present. This story is a mix of LitRPG and Xianxia, and it will have Classes as well as Cultivation systems. There are two main characters, and a few others that are introduced later. The MC focus will change from volume to volume, with the first being focused on Ryun, and the second on Zach (we are currently in Volume 4). Other MCs will still have chapters dedicated to them, but the focus will be on the main volume MC.

8 188A Prose of Years
For decades, spiritualist Evert Kallstrom and his team have joined in humanity’s millennia-long fight against the beasts. Wielding their weapons and their ki, they fought and killed these great threats to civilization. And yet, despite their efforts, humanity was losing traction in the war. In the last fifty years alone, more cities had been overrun than in all of known history. While most thought the great beasts natural, a few knew the terrible truth. They were the product of a dark lord, who desired neither fame nor wealth nor power. Instead, his sole purpose was the genocide of humanity. While their peers dithered, a small faction of the strongest mankind had to offer—including Evert Kallstrom and his team—set out towards the Deadlands to find and confront this dark lord. After weeks of travel, twenty-one spiritualists found themselves approaching an ancient fortress wherein rested a being known only as the Eastern Guardian. All they found was death. But death has other plans for Evert. Evert bolts awake in his 16 year old body near his hometown, decades in the past. He is confused, poor and weak. But with grit, sweat, and years of experience, he won't let the future repeat itself. That level of strength won't be enough by itself (it wasn’t last time) and victory is hardly assured (he’ll need to reach farther and higher than he ever did), but Evert refuses to squander a second chance. [Other tags: First Person POV, Hard Magic, Faulty Memory] Volume 1 is complete and has been fully released. My current intention is not to write any sequel volumes. That said, I have also released appendices (SPOILERS) that cover the worldbuilding and future story-that-never-was. Comments suggesting fixes for grammar, misspellings, etc. appreciated. Note: If you came here from Candlelit Lives, these stories have nothing in common.
