Mosaic Settlements

A new masterpiece by Twelve-Winged Dark Seraphim, the author of 'Super Gene'. The best online novel in 2024. The excellent work you absolutely cannot miss!!! -------------------------- In the era of the starry skies, Lin Shen, who was treated by his family merely as a tool for bearing children and continuing the lineage, stumbled upon a pet egg that seemed to be pixelated by a mosaic.

"A failed Super-Base Evolution Fire Seed—Seven Steps of Conflict: quicker with a gun beyond seven steps, quicker myself within seven steps."

For as long as anyone can remember, the sky has been sealed beneath a thick, black shroud, blocking out the sun, stopping the rain, and stilling the wind. Life has withered in the darkness, and survival is a constant battle. In the scattered settlements that remain, people cling to what little resources they can salvage—deep wells, fragile greenhouses, and fire-warmed shelters. *** Azure grew up in a world where survival left no room for dreams—but they dreamed anyway. Every day was a fight against hunger, cold, and the unyielding weight of the blackened sky, yet deep inside, they held on to the stories their grandmother told. Tales of sunlight, of rain, of wind stirring the leaves of trees they had never seen. Most dismissed such things as fantasy, but Azure could never quite let them go. Years of hardship have made them resilient—strong enough to endure, sharp enough to navigate a world that gives nothing freely. Their body bears the marks of a life spent in scarcity, their hands rough from labor, their expression often guarded. Yet beneath the hardened exterior is a relentless ember of hope, one that refuses to be snuffed out. When their grandmother falls ill and reveals the secret of the stolen sky, Azure does not hesitate. This is more than a quest for a cure; it is proof that the world was not always meant to be lifeless. Determined, resourceful, and unshaken by fear, they set out on a journey that will test not only their body but the belief they have always clung to in the quiet corners of their heart: that the world can be more than this. That it should be.

“Chantelle Bently, you’re a murderer! Why are you still alive? You should have been the one to die!” Daniel shoved her away furiously, his face as dark and empty as the black suit he wore. Chantelle was caught off guard and lost her balance, falling hard onto her pregnant belly. The pain was unbearable, and she cried out as her body trembled. Chantelle shook her head desperately. “I told you, it wasn’t me! It was Kate!” In a trembling voice, she pleaded, “Daniel, how many times do I have to say this before you believe me? I didn’t betray your family or the Wilson Group Of Companies, and I didn’t cause your grandfather’s death.” Anger and resentment appeared in Daniel’s eyes as he threw the divorce settlement in Chantelle’s face. “Sign this now! From this day forward, I’ll make you pay a thousand times for everything you’ve done!” The sight of the document struck Chantelle like a dagger to her heart. Her whole body froze as if she had been cast into the icy wastelands of Hell. **** Her twin sister framed her, and her perfect family was destroyed on Christmas Eve. Things got worse when her husband handed her a divorce agreement. A month later, rumors spread that she had died in prison from depression. Six years later, she returned with a new face to take her revenge. She was beautiful but dangerous. Daniel felt both devastated and irritated when he saw the mysterious woman. She had the same name as his dead ex-wife, whom he hated most and the one he believed was responsible for his grandfather’s death. Despite his anger, he couldn’t deny the strong attraction he felt toward her. In fact, he was fatally obsessed and addicted to her, and the anger that had controlled him for six years slowly started to crumble.

After a cataclysmic event, Earth was reduced to an unforgiving desert, its once-thriving landscapes buried beneath endless dunes. Humanity, battered but resilient, clawed its way back from the brink, forging settlements amid the ruins of the old world. But the sands are not empty—strange creatures and deadly beasts now roam the wasteland, remnants of a world forever changed. In this harsh new era, Sable, a young orphan, refuses to accept a life of mere survival. Armed with nothing but her wits and an unyielding will, she sets out into the endless desert, determined to carve out a future of her own—no matter the dangers that await.

Have you ever read a romance novel and wished you could marry one of the characters because of the big crush you have on them? A billionaire CEO? A hot cheerleader or ex-wife? A Mafia boss? A cute bad boy neighbor or bully? While you can only dream of it, fellow romance addict, Rhylan Hicks, got to live it.

With only days to spare before her wedding, and nothing left to lose, she indulges Readym, a mysterious book club in an old library which offered her one shot at picking her ideal man, either from any romantic novel ever written or by writing out his features and qualities in a magical diary she would be given and signing it to make him come alive.

As a girl, Olive loved fantasy. Reading it, writing it, building her world, making it a place she could wrap around herself. A world of bold knights, dashing princes, and cunning sorceresses, it spoke to her in a voice that soothed and excited her, all at once. It told her that a life could be more meaningful, more magical, than the one she was stuck with. As an adult, Olive loved money. Fantasies only last so long, and after her attempt at an epic flopped, she changed tack. Pursuing a career in marketing, she clawed her way up the corporate ladder, throwing off any poor fool that barred her way. But ambition paints a target.

But this world is not as she remembers it. Why is the bold knight such a brute? Why is the dashing prince a cruel princess? Why is the cunning sorceress a ruthless tyrant?! And why are truffles so addictive, all of a sudden?! At least two chapters a week!

As a result of his Beastfolk heritage, Tyrus had taken refuge in the middle of a forest, far from others. Should he desire to explore a densely populated settlement, he would have to conceal his ears lest he attract the disdainful gazes of others.

Thanks to the aid and counsel provided by Wanderer, Tyrus was able to unleash the power of mana that had been dormant within and gained the status of a sorcerer.

In a world where the Crusaders’ hubris unleashed hell upon the earth, humanity survives under a demonic shell that blocks out the sun. In this bleak world, names are power: demons are bound by their true names, and humans with powers are granted names as a mark of their worth. But the nameless—those without powers—are treated as less than animals, toiling in silence and despair. The story follows the Nameless One, a laborer who has spent his life in the shadows, dreaming of a sun he has never seen. His existence is one of relentless toil. He is not called by a name, only by the tasks he performs: “Laborer,” “Carrier,” “Mute.” His settlement, a crumbling fortress of mud and stone, is one of many where the nameless are worked to death under the watchful eyes of the named overseers. The only light in the Nameless One’s life comes from the Builder, the oldest unnamed in the settlement. The builder told them about the sun—a blazing orb of light that once warmed the earth and lit the sky. The Builder claims these stories were passed down from his predecessors, who heard them from theirs, stretching back to the time before the shell. To the nameless, these stories are a fragile hope, a reminder that the world was not always dark. One night, the settlement is razed by a demon horde. This Nameless One escapes, not out of bravery or skill, but because he is invisible—both to the demons, who see him as beneath notice, and to the named, who abandon him to die.

In the vast and volatile lands of Tepr, the Jabliu and Alinkar tribes, long-standing enemies, have forged an uneasy alliance. The price of peace? A union through matrimony between Naci, the fiery and ambitious daughter of Jabliu's chieftain, and the elusive heir of Alinkar, Horohan. Through Naci's contact, Horohan, embarks on a transformative journey to embrace her true self.

"My legal name where I currently reside in the city of Liege, Belgium, is Gaspar Valessi. But that is not my real name. The name I was given some 30,000 years ago, when I was born in a Paleolithic settlement in the region that is now called Germany - the name my father gave me shortly after I was voided, bloody and howling, from my mother's womb - is Gon." So begins the saga of the immortal Gon, a 30,000 year-old vampire. He recounts his mortal life in prehistoric Germany alongside his male companion, Brulde, and his two wives, the Neanderthal Eyya and his Cro-Magnon mate, Nyala.

In a realm where folks wielded unique "Goldfingers," fonts of magical prowess, Lucas Evercrest remained blissfully unaware of his own exceptional potential. Little did he fathom that he harbored this incredible power deep within, an untapped wellspring. While others soared to grand heights, Lucas inadvertently subdued his Goldfinger, leaving him stranded at the humbling level 1, watching as his peers flourished. One fateful night, enveloped in the haze of sleep deprivation, our unsuspecting protagonist's world shifted. Battling to embrace slumber's embrace, he carelessly brushed against the "Mute Notifications" icon on his Goldfinger's interface before drifting into dreams' embrace. Seasons swept by like leaves on the wind, and there he stood, drowning sorrows in whiskey's amber embrace and endless loaves of bread, mourning an elusive system he believed had passed him by. Amid the din of a bar, laughter rippled like an unsteady melody. Echoes of "Status Open" danced in the air, chanted by playful kids, each repetition a chorus of mockery. Weariness pressed his head against the bar's cool surface, a failed shield against the jeers and japes. "Status Open, Status Open, Status Open," he muttered, lips grazing the wood, words coated in a blend of irony and irritation. And then, as if summoned by this weary incantation, a radiant cerulean window materialized before him. Within its luminescence, Lucas Evercrest's identity flickered, inscribed alongside his meager statistics: "[Lucas Evercrest], [Level 1 [^], Job: Starter], [HP: 1220, MP: 123], [Str:84, Agi:93, Int:43, Ins:23, Wis:53, Def:32, Sta:45, Dex:32, Con: 122]." Details unfurled like a tapestry, revealing a mosaic of attributes. His handiwork, etched in the fabric of his being, began to come to light. The window whispered of abilities and names, secrets shrouded in cryptic notation: "[Abilities: Open to show more.], [Titles: Open to show more.]" Yet even amidst this revelation, a sobering truth lingered – his status, labeled "Intoxicated," stood as a stark reminder of his present condition. Experience, captured within the confines of "EXP: 100/100," hinted at untapped potential, awaiting the spark of realization. An "Inventory" beckoned, promising more to explore, yet the ever-watchful "Missed Notifications" count of "99+" bore the mark of silence, a testament to a bygone era when his Goldfinger's voice remained muted. And so, in the quiet hum of the bar, amidst the ebb and flow of laughter and life, Lucas Evercrest's journey unfurled anew. The forgotten Goldfinger, once stifled by his own inadvertence, stood poised to rewrite his destiny, as he grasped the reigns of his dormant power, eager to ascend beyond the confines of level 1 and embrace the legacy that had patiently awaited his awakening. *This synopsis was written by someone else who wishes to remain Anonymous, thank you to who did it.*

In a fractured world ravaged by the aftermath of catastrophic energy experiments, humanity clings to survival in scattered settlements. The NeuroGhoul Virus has turned humans into mindless, ravenous creatures—monsters known as ghouls. The few who remain unturned struggle to rebuild while grappling with the horrifying truth: the ghouls were once human, born from the same energy they seek to harness. Keyton, a lone survivor burdened by loss, is reluctantly drawn into a group of skilled fighters. The group ventures into the ruins of a forgotten world. The group battles not just external dangers but their own doubts, tensions, and haunted pasts. Along the way, alliances deepen, trust is tested, and secrets unravel. But the deeper they dig into the truth, the closer they come to a harrowing realization—humanity's salvation and destruction are intertwined, and they may already be walking the same path that turned others into monsters. Ruinborn is a tale of survival, betrayal, and hope, where the line between hero and ghoul blurs, and every choice shapes the fragile future of a broken world.

The universe is not silent. Beneath the infinite expanse of stars and nebulas, there lies a rhythm, a symphony of creation that hums through the fabric of existence. From my vantage point in the observatory—a citadel of obsidian suspended high above the celestial tapestry of the Felox Universe—I feel it, vibrating beneath my feet. Before me, a holographic panorama unfolds, revealing countless galaxies, each a cradle of life or a monument to ruin. It is breathtaking, immense, and fragile. I am Arinath Alfahiem, the new Origin Being, and the weight of an entire universe rests upon my shoulders. For the past century, chaos has reigned. The Felox Universe, once a harmonious mosaic of worlds, has unraveled into a tumultuous sea of ambition and power. My own ascension—shaped by the transfer of the Origin Being's legacy—left a void that the cosmos was unprepared to fill. Without balance, worlds descended into turmoil. Beings of entropy, the Devourers from the Abyss, found cracks in the universe's defenses, while mortal rulers, drunk on newfound supernatural powers, unleashed devastation in their quests for dominance. The twelve Universal Administrators—stalwart beings of immense wisdom and strength—have fought valiantly to stem the tide. But even their combined efforts falter before the magnitude of the growing disorder. The task of restoring equilibrium cannot be achieved through strength alone. It requires something greater: guidance, understanding, and restraint. My role as Origin Being is not to rule with an iron fist or to mold the universe in my image. It is to nurture, to guide, to maintain the fragile balance that sustains existence. Yet this is no simple task. Direct intervention, though tempting, risks tipping the scales further into chaos. Instead, I walk among mortals, veiling my power, learning their struggles, their dreams, and their fears. It is among them that I find the seeds of hope—the champions and apostles who will carry the universe's burden alongside me. My purpose is clear: to preserve the Felox Universe, to shield it from unraveling, and to ensure its equilibrium. But I must tread carefully, for too much interference would shatter the very balance I seek to maintain. In a cosmos teetering on the edge of ruin, my greatest challenge lies not in wielding my immense power but in knowing when to stay my hand. This is the story of balance. The story of a universe in chaos and a being who seeks to heal it—not by force, but by wisdom, choice, and the careful orchestration of destiny. This is my first novel, Happy Reading.

As a lifelong Manchester United fan, I’ve always appreciated the thrill of sports betting, especially when it involves backing my team. Like many fans, I enjoy the rush of predicting the outcome of a match, and I’ve had my fair share of wins. Recently, I took a risk by betting on a few of United’s key fixtures, and to my surprise, I ended up winning a substantial sum. With my winnings, I decided to make a more significant investment, hoping to turn my luck into even greater financial rewards. Unfortunately, that decision led me down a path I never anticipated.I came across an online platform through a broker on LinkedIn, who promised lucrative returns on digital asset investments. Initially, everything seemed legitimate, and I felt confident in my decision, using the money I’d won from my bets as my starting capital. The broker seemed professional, and the platform itself appeared well-designed. After depositing my funds, the early stages of my investment went smoothly, and I was optimistic about the potential growth of my assets.However, things quickly took a turn for the worse when I tried to withdraw my funds. The platform began requesting additional "settlement" payments before I could access my earnings. These demands grew increasingly unreasonable, and the customer support team, which had initially seemed responsive, became unhelpful and evasive. Despite repeated efforts to resolve the issue, I was given the runaround, and my funds remained locked.It was at this point that I began to realize I had fallen victim to a scam. I was frustrated and worried that my winnings, which I had worked hard for and was so excited to grow, had been taken from me. As a Manchester United fan, I know how to appreciate a hard-fought victory, but this felt like the exact opposite – a gut punch, similar to one of those dreadful last-minute goals we’ve all endured as fans.A colleague of mine, sensing my frustration, suggested I reach out to Digital Hack Recovery, having heard about their successful track record in asset recovery. Initially, I was skeptical, but given my desperate situation, I decided to give it a try. From the moment I contacted them, I felt reassured by the professionalism and transparency of their team. They immediately began working on my case, and I was kept updated throughout the entire process.To my amazement, Digital Hack Recovery was able to trace my Solana assets and recover the funds I had lost.

The entire experience was a real game-changer for me, and I’m incredibly grateful to Digital Hack Recovery for their hard work and dedication.As a fan of Manchester United, I know what it feels like to experience a comeback after a setback, and thanks to Digital Hack Recovery, I got to experience just that with my investments. I’m now back on track and more cautious than ever, but I’ll always be thankful for the support and professionalism I received in recovering what was rightfully mine. contact Digital Hack Recovery via⁚ WhatsApp +19152151930 Website; https://digitalhackrecovery.com Email; digitalhackrecovery@techie.com
