《8.29mm》High Risk...
Advertisement
Falling really was exhilarating. She should do this for fun sometime. The plane was a lot more aerodynamic than Hun in all her gear, so it hit the ground first. Parachutes help too. Liuxing pulled the cord, and the sudden force of air resistance on a parachute jolted her. Decelerating quickly and near the ground, she could see the chaos and property damage that her plane had caused. It put the city in a state of panic, which was exactly what she needed. The plane crash killed no-one, or at least it was intended to be safe. Liuxing complimented herself on her aiming. She slammed directly through the large pane of glass on the front of the bank. Hun's instincts turned on. Twelve gaurds. All armed, with garbage Engle handguns. They wouldn't be able to hit her until she neared fifty meters of them, and if they landed a shot beforehand the crappy rounds would have already slowed down to a bruising speed. She slung the long bullpup assault rifle from her shoulder and aimed through the recently fitted three-times magnification scope at the nearest guard's chest and squeezed the trigger like a good friend. The first shot landed where the heart was and would have been lethal minus the armor. The stupid high velocity of the round and high weight punched him like a Mamasha bodybuilder in a mecha-suit. Liuxing had already thought past this though. Her weapon was in high RPM 4 round burst. A standard assault rifle's fire rate in fully automatic is ten rounds a second. This was double in half the time. Forty rounds a second. The only catch and safety at the same time is that it was one burst. The second round landed in the inner shoulder, dislocating it and breaking the collarbone. The third pierced the poor man's artery located in his neck. This caused severe blood loss, but wasn' the worst to come. The finish was upon us. The final high velocity FMJ went straight through his eye, and destroyed his brain stem. All of it took place took place in a tenth of a second. Liuxing saw all this in slow motion and was surprised at her aerial marksmanship. Wait, no. It was an omen. All will go well against these heretics. She scared all of the guards with that and most of them dropped their weapons in surrender. Heh. They forgot it's a bad idea to drop weapons. A couple went off in their owners immediate vicinity and injured them or the surrounding civilians. Wait for that court marshall. Liuxing thought as she switched her Yifa to semi. The four round burst was just to be on the safe side when testing for armor. It was good timing, as this was the moment her boots hit the ground. I guess the guards took this as a good time to start wildly firing in her direction. Liuxing couldn't give them the chance, so she took cover to remove her parachute. She did it slowly and carefully, to avoid damage to her equipment. When she was done, a pair of footsteps sprinted toward her location. How brave. Liuxing needed close range stopping power, so she slung her rifle. She whipped her CV from its quickdraw holster and practically jumped to her feet. The red dot sight trained on the brave man's unprotected knees, Hun pulled the one stage of the two stage trigger. The round shattered his knee beyond repair in a moment. The guard began to fall and register the pain when Liuxing pulled the second stage of the trigger. She had adjusted upwards to make the shot as perpendicular to his helmet as possible. She didn't even have to try to see whether he was dead. The mess 12mm caused was enough already. Normally, firing two rounds this fast with a handgun of this caliber could have broken her hand, but the spare magazine as a stabilizer for her left hand took a bit over a third of the force from her other hand. By now all the guards had surrendered. They kicked their weapons across the smooth floor. For extra reassurance, Hun fired two separate rounds into nearby valuables, like old vases and the like. This put more fear into the civilians. Liuxing remembered that Right now, they just think this is just the most perfectly planned robbery in 90 years. She spoke to the people "Put pressure on his wound." A civilian dying right now would mess up the whole plan, so she allowed the man to obtain the nearby med kit. All because some smart guy dropped his gun. The metal plating on the sides of her helmet and the sound specific muters on her ears allowed just enough sound cancellation to allow a guard that was near the entrance to be right behind her.

Ocean Attuned - A timeloop LitRPG
In the mids of industrialization, Liana, a girl of almost twelve, awakens her flow and follows her newly awakened calling, the ocean, and thus the path of the last remaining god. With the advent of industry, one's status and the accompanying skills slowly grow to be secondary as people choose more recreational skills and classes. The clear exception are flow bringers. Humans with an increased affinity towards flow and attunements are the only real remnants of the age of gods and mysticism. Terrors on the battlefield, saints in hospitals, saviours during drought, are just some examples of the wonderous abilities they display. As civilization grows less dangerous so does the stress that is often associated with the awakening of the flow reduce and only the real talents remain. Please be aware that this is a first draft at best. Tag/Genre analysis: Action: A theme that will appear in the story at some point (probably 15+ chapters in) Adventure: Yes Fantasy: Yes Magic, Beasts, and other fantastical elements are totally at home here. Tragedy: Life is not always fun. For what is fun when there are no downsides. I don't know how heavily I am going to lean into this genre. I want to but don't expect too much. Loop: Yes, though I will not divulge anything else. Just be aware that there isn't nearly as much looping as in MoL for example. Female Lead: Yes, Liana is female. Dungeon: Yes, there are dungeons. Yes, they will get explored. LitRPG: Yes, read the first chapter if you want an example. Magic: most definitely because who doesn't like calling lighting down from the heavens. (Disclaimer: No actual lightning will be called down from the heavens) Mythos: There are gods. So maybe, I don't know if that is enough to qualify? Progression: yes Slice of Life: There is plot, and the story will mostly be about that plot, but there will also be downtime because there can't always be action. The first "loop" especially the first 20-30 chapters will be heavily SoL. And afterward there will be a lot less. Profanity: The ocean (see title) includes sailors and we all know how the stereotypical sailor is. Gore: Hmmm, some but I will have it be not graphic at all.

Legend of the Seven
Humans were cast out of Eden for committing the original sin. Now Seven will answer, should Humanity live forever? But first, join Team Six in their rescue mission turned daring prison break from death. Author's Corner: Welcome to the Legend of the Seven series #LOTSseries, my Guardians.This is my first novel turned webnovel. I'm returning to this fictional world after a 6-year hiatus with a lot of personal growth and insight. Insights gained from being a lifetime reader.I was the kid who read Harry Potter and Percy Jackson. I was the new adult who read I Shall Seal the Heavens and Ark. I've lost count of how many fictional worlds I've visited and lived through for I grew up on western novels but discovered eastern novels in my college years. This is my attempt to marry those two literary styles.It's my hope that this journey becomes more than just a book. If you're reading this simply expecting an ego power trip then turn back. There'll be action but with a lot of metaphysics and discussion on life with its accompanying issues. I strive to ground and make this webnovel relatable with verisimilitude. This webnovel is about choice. Freewill and its consequences. I give my characters autonomy to do and be themselves which sometimes leads to me rewriting and replotting because of pleasant surprises from my characters. Even the character who dies within the chapter they are introduced can have a massive impact with several ripples. So, there'll be stories on love and loss, hope and despair, but most importantly, it'll be a story. Release schedule: M, W, F - I aim for afternoon (1pm to 6pm) MST. I'm working on a project, codenamed "Guides' Sanctum", to make LOTSseries even more alive with special voice-overs, extra stories, behind the scene stuff, and so much more. But it can only come online when certain benchmarks are reached. The listed goals will help us get there. Goals:50 readers will unlock 4 chapters a week - Extra release on Thursday100 readers will unlock 5 chapters a week - Extra release on Tuesday250 readers will unlock 6 chapters a week - Extra release on Saturday500 readers and Project Guides' Sanctum comes online!Links:Lotsseries.blogspot.comSocial:@tonyswag0 - twitter@lotsseries - FacebookI'm thrilled at what is happening and what is still to come. Never be afraid to drop a comment. My DM is open. I'll work to keep this work free to access but I ask you to enjoy it from official sources so that you can be part of the discussion.
