Carcass Metal Archives

Liam Thane, a brilliant but socially awkward linguistics student, stumbles upon an ancient artifact—the Lithic Lament—inscribed with a language that defies all known linguistic rules. His obsession with deciphering it catapults him into a hidden cosmic struggle when he is chosen as the successor to Kairus, the dying Archivist of a celestial library that contains all knowledge across time and dimensions. Now, Liam must master incomprehensible truths, resist the temptation to alter fate, and guard the Archive from entities that would twist its power—all while his humanity unravels.

Tianwu Continent, thirteen hundred years ago. The ancestors followed the strongest primal beasts, picking up the scraps of other primal beasts' carcasses left behind by their consumption. The mighty primal beasts did not bother to pay attention to these creatures smaller than their toe tips, while the ancestors felt immense gratitude towards the primal beasts for leaving behind some remnants, to which they prostrated themselves in worship.

“If Heaven will not crown me, I will rise anyway—fire and all.” Born a concubine’s daughter in the grand halls of Great Qi, Li Ziyan was expected to be silent, obedient, and invisible. Instead, she dared to dream — of justice, of change, of power denied to women like her. Cast out by her powerful family for a single act of defiance, she is left disgraced, alone… and furious. But exile is only the beginning. Joined by a fierce sword-wielding ally and a quiet apprentice with secrets of his own, Ziyan begins her journey as an outcast — building strength in the shadows, gathering allies among the forgotten, and uncovering ancient truths buried by a corrupt empire. Yet danger follows close behind. Someone from within her own bloodline wants her erased. A shadowy conspiracy tied to relics, legends, and forbidden orders hunts her every step. And deep within an abandoned monastery, Ziyan awakens something older than prophecy — a flame tied to the lost Phoenix Archive, and a power long denied to any woman. As secrets unravel and enemies close in, Ziyan must choose: Will she remain a fugitive hunted by the past? Or will she rise from the ashes — and reclaim a destiny that even Heaven tried to steal?

This is a blend of **sci-fi and xianxia (cultivation fantasy)** with a strong emotional core: a dragon child raised by an AI, caught between technology and cultivation, demon and immortal, loneliness and love. Born during a thunderstorm, a dragon child awakens in darkness—cold, alone, and hungry. But he is not truly alone. A broken AI, known as *Space Explorer 137*—or *Talking Metal*—awakens alongside him. Damaged, with only fragments of its memory intact, the AI wraps him in warmth, feeds him crushed nuts and vegetables, sings lullabies, and teaches him to survive. When his appetite grows and food becomes scarce, the AI teaches him how to hunt. Even though rabbits tower over him, the dragon child devours them easily. As the boy grows stronger, his body shifts—he learns to take human form. Talking Metal teaches him language, hygiene, and combat. He learns to use firearms salvaged from fallen robots. But power comes at a cost: the AI is running low on energy, and two of the hunting robots are destroyed by wild beasts. Then, everything changes. One day, while scavenging under daylight, they discover an unconscious girl in the forest—bleeding, broken, and alone. The AI debates the risk, but the child insists. They carry her to their tree-home, clean her wounds, stitch her skin with metal needles, and give her saline. They don’t speak her language. She doesn’t understand their origin. She believes the boy is the noble survivor of a ruined house—a young master living alone in the woods with a mechanical puppet. They cannot correct her. And so, the girl joins their life. She follows the boy, calling him kind and strange. When night brings danger—a monstrous rat attack—they fight it off together. She sees it all: the boy’s quiet strength, the robot’s hidden wisdom, the surreal technology mixed with natural grace. The AI wants to stay hidden—but she refuses to leave. Eventually, she carries the damaged robot back to civilization. Thus begins the legend. The dragon boy, once hidden in metal and wild leaves, is drawn into the Immortal Sect. Reluctant at first, he tries to leave—but the girl keeps dragging him forward. He studies cultivation. He gathers elemental treasures to rebuild his AI. He fights with both spiritual swords and modern guns. He battles beasts, spirits, and ancient technologies. But deep within, something stirs. He realizes: he is no mere human. Not a true immortal.Not a true Robot. Not just a machine-raised orphan. He is **a sky-born dragon**, a mighty demon sealed in flesh and taught to love. When the time comes to choose—**immortal or demon**—either path will cost him something precious. If he chooses one, the other will call him **traitor**. ---

In a land where kingdoms march to the rhythm of crowns, Where blades are silent, and hearts beat in chains, One boy hums to himself beneath a broken sky— Unaware that his song will one day shatter empires. Ren is born nameless, crestless, and forgotten. But he listens. To the wind. To the fire. To the whisper of metal, old and aching for memory. For in this world, blades once sang—not with words, but with will. And Crowns… Crowns do not rule with justice, but with rhythm. A rhythm etched into bone, bound in sorrow, And worn by kings who have traded their souls for command. But Ren does not march. He does not shout. He moves. He dances. And in his steps, the song begins anew. Through war, betrayal, love, and legacy, Ren must face the silence imposed by power, And awaken a forgotten truth: > That blades do not belong to kings. They belong to those who listen. So come— Step softly. Listen closely. And when the steel begins to hum... You’ll know the story has begun. ---

#PostApocalyptic #SciFi #Adventure #HybridWar #Mythic #Biopunk Before the fall, there was a choice. Before the monsters, there was a man. In the shadow of Mount Banahaw, deep beneath the soil, Dr. Rhane Wu—last in the bloodline of Dr. Henry Wu—awakens a system that was never meant to be touched. The Codex Prime was designed to archive life. Rhane rewires it to replace evolution. Buried in sealed tanks are hybrids, twisted fusions of predator and anomaly. Among them lies XENOVORAX, still sleeping—still dreaming. But the jungle remembers. And so does JIRUUN—a Warden-class entity born not from man, but from something older. Something watching. As global systems blink out, genetic failsafes rupture, and ARKHIVE prepares for a new host, Rhane records one final Codex entry. “We tried to resurrect the past. But the future had teeth.” This is not a tale of redemption. This is the prelude to extinction. “The world didn’t end with man. It began after him.”

For 500 years, she has been condemned to suffer. Clark Parker is reincarnated thirteen times, only to live a cruel life. In her final life, she dies a Saint, and the Veil offers her release: a chance at peace, at bliss--rebirth without sorrow. She refuses. Clark doesn't want to come back. She wants answers. But the truth she seeks lies deep within the Old Archives, a place forbidden to all but reapers. And she isn't one--not yet. To become an envoy of death, she must destroy what remains of her grace and taint her soul. And there is only one place to break a Saint: Hell. There, among the ruined and the wretched, she will rise. Through torment. Through the ranks of demons, and ascend as a reaper. But the closer she comes to the truth, the colder the world becomes. Because some secrets are chained for a reason. And some names should stay in the dark.

After dying in the modern world, Scott Domain awakens at the dawn of existence as the secret son of Gaia and Uranus—reborn as the Titan of Soul. Though believed to be just another minor Titan, Elias retains his human mind and modern knowledge, making him an anomaly in a world ruled by primal forces and gods-to-be. Gifted with dominion over soul, identity, memory, and reincarnation, Elias forges a hidden realm of his own and begins crafting unique creations—Soulbeasts, Memory Trees, and an Archive of Lives. As the mythic world unfolds—from Uranus’ tyranny, through Cronus’ rebellion, to Zeus’ rise—Elias quietly shapes fate behind the scenes. While Titans and gods battle for power, others ascend to godhood by claiming pieces of the unconscious World Will, the sleeping mind of the cosmos. But as more divine beings awaken, the World Will begins to stir… and it hungers for dominion over all souls. To protect the essence of identity and free will, Elias must decide: remain a hidden force, become a guide to a new divine order, or rise as the soul of the world itself.

[Daily Subtask: Reject the princess] "Just kill me already" ✦✦✦✦✦✦ Everyone in the world is guided by the Archive, a system created to push humanity to its peak through discipline, training, and pain. It watches. It measures. It never stops. When Kael wakes up in a new body, with no idea of how or why, he finds himself bound to a version of the Archive that feels... wrong. His tasks are strange. His penalties are brutal. And his rewards make no sense. While others train to become heroes or nobles, Kael just wants to be left alone. But fate, and the Archive have other plans. Thrown into the world’s most elite academy and forced to compete against the continent’s best, Kael finds himself walking a path he never asked for. One built by bloodlines, secrets, and a system that refuses to let him rest. He isn’t here to rise. He isn’t here to win. He just wants a nap. Too bad. The Archive is watching. Waiting to assign a new task.

When an elderly man awakens in a vast, surreal hall filled with silence, water, and towering, incomprehensible pillars, he has no memory of how he got there — only the growing dread that something is watching. As he searches for answers in a place where time, pain, and reality seem to unravel, he begins to question everything: his identity, his family, and the very nature of existence itself. But when he finally awakens in the "real world," the nightmare doesn't end. It follows. Haunted by visions, stalked by snakes, and suffocated by silence, he spirals into a journey of discovery, delusion, and descent. The boundaries between memory and madness blur, and the cost of clarity may be too much for any man to bear. “NVE 100” is the first case file in The Archives, a classified series chronicling humanity’s encounters with the unnatural, the unexplained… and the unforgivable.

Eons ago, humanity stood at the peak of evolution. They sought the heavens, carving their ascent from flesh, metal, and sheer will. But then came the Catastrophe. The world shattered. Unity became myth. Belief fractured. Science turned to sin. Cultivation became creed. And the survivors became scavengers. Now, in a world slowly healing, echoes of the past stir once more. Forgotten bloodlines awaken. Sealed powers unravel. And in the shadows of it all stands Lucian—a blind orphan with nothing but a stubborn will to survive. He doesn’t seek glory. He doesn’t dream of thrones. But fate has other plans. From silence and ruin, through blood and ash, Lucian will climb. But in a world that devours the weak and corrupts the strong… Will he rise to the top? Or will he fall halfway?

One day, Siegfried woke up to find himself transported to a world of swords and magic. Powerless and unarmed, he was entrusted with the task of saving a kingdom. Since ancient times, the strong have relied on their fists, and the rich on their wealth. But what about those who have nothing? Guess they'll have to rely on their silver tongue. “Well, for starters, let’s swindle a lady knight for fun~” -------------------------------------------- I strolled through the grand and bustling medieval royal city, and climbed the towering magical spire that reached the skies. I’ve seen beautiful, elegant elves with long lifespans, and ancient dragons that blotted out the sun. I’ve once led thousands into battle across the war-torn plains, and also clinked mugs with comrades in the rowdy adventurers’ taverns. I’ve recorded these wild and fantastical experiences in my handbook, hoping they’ll be sung for generations to come.

"Stand back! He's using the metal in our weapons!!" The continent of Paragone has been at war with the ruthless and enigmatic Black Spirit army for thirteen years. Afflicted with amnesia, Raten found himself lost in both mind and in the physical sense as he was a powerful member of the Black Spirit but had lost all memory of being one.

This decision was enough to set off a chain of events that will ultimately shape the future of their world.

In the kingdom of Serendahl, a cursed plague transforms its victims into wandering beasts that sow chaos. To save her people, Princess Lyra Valen, sole heir to the throne, accepts a political marriage to Prince Rhydian Drakhar, leader of the mysterious Firelands, whose inhabitants descend from dragons and possess immunity to the curse.

SHADOWFLAME “If you could decide what’s real… would you choose the truth?” In the endless city of Vandral, nothing is remembered — and nothing forgotten. Beneath ashen skies and grinding steel, truth is no longer found — it’s manufactured. The state speaks in the voice of order: “Security is truth. Truth is structure.” But behind the mirrors, something else watches. Kael was told that fire purifies. That burning leads to freedom. He knows now: that was a lie.

And Kael is about to learn that the most dangerous thing in a world built on lies… is the truth.

In the middle of the night when the rain was pouring down, Li Yan tightly gripped the steering wheel, and the headlights cut out two swaying beams of light in the rain. In the rearview mirror, the black SUV had been following him for three traffic lights. The cold sweat from his palms made the steering wheel slippery, and he thought of the worn-out Bible he had snatched from the library half an hour ago. Lin Xia's words before leaving echoed in his ears: "This book contains the secret that my family has guarded for three hundred years. It must not fall into the hands of those people!" Suddenly, a heavy truck rushed out from the side. Li Yan turned the steering wheel sharply, and the car spun violently and crashed into the roadside guardrail. Amid the sharp sound of metal twisting, he saw a blood-red crack in the sky, and the Bible flew out from the co-pilot, emitting a strange light.
