Lego Fortnite Countdown

The Universal System is dying. Once a powerful force that governed skills, leveling, and reality itself, it is now on the verge of collapse. The gods have abandoned it, the world it once maintained is crumbling, and abyssal forces seek to erase its existence. As its final act, the System awakens its last hope—a fallen warrior from an extinct world. Given the title of Administrator, they must repair the shattered System, reclaim lost functionalities, and fight against cosmic forces determined to wipe it from existence. But as they dig deeper, they uncover a terrifying truth: The System was never meant to exist. Now, the Administrator must make an impossible choice—restore the System to its former glory, rewrite its very nature, or let it die forever. In a war against gods, cosmic entities, and reality itself, can one being defy fate and reshape existence? The countdown to annihilation has begun. The last Administrator must rise.

In a world where magic grows stronger only through battle and bloodshed, sorcerers live by one rule: keep killing, or be forgotten. Kael Ardyn was once nothing—a weak noble-born mage with a Flickerfire Spell so pathetic that even peasants mocked him. His family was exiled, his lands stolen, his future erased. Left for dead by his own allies, he had no hope… until he stumbled upon the Killstreak Grimoire. Now, his magic follows a terrifying new law: every consecutive kill multiplies his power, evolving his spells into apocalyptic forces. But if he stops—even for a moment—his power resets to nothing. To survive, he must chain his kills endlessly, each battle pushing him further into madness. As Kael rises, so do his enemies. The Empire’s Mage Guild brands him a rogue. The legendary Unbreakable Duke—the warlord who destroyed his family—returns to hunt him down. And lurking in the shadows, the Killstreak Tyrant, the first and strongest to ever wield this power, awakens to reclaim his throne. Can Kael master the art of endless slaughter before his enemies erase him? Or will he become another forgotten failure in the long, bloody history of Killstreak Sorcerers? The countdown has begun. His timer is ticking. And if he stops killing… he dies.

I never asked to be a part of werewolf society - or this world. Every day that passes, the mating bond between my protector and I threatens to occur, once and for all. To consume me entirely... and lock my path with this world on the brink, even when I still think of home. ⧖ ⧖ ⧖ One minute I was Citra Lomdi - a Princess to a kingdom of silk and secrets in a whole other place. There, I was a *magnificent* Fox shifter... maneuvering in the gilded cage that was my life. The next thing I knew... I was trapped in the body of a she-werewolf being rejected by her mate. A man that wanted the original owner, Helene Duskpaw, to accept the rejection of the mate bond so badly that he'd be easily convinced to kill me. He did *almost* seem to be trying! But my problems didn't end there. An 'Apocalypse System' has chosen me and a countdown timer reminds me whenever I look that fate can be measured. That there might be a point to my arrival here. A fierce & brilliant CEO of a supernatural society tech empire has their sights on me, too. The Alpha of the Rimecoat Pack that is quite annoyingly... as sexy as she is powerful. This Kyrie Voss also seems to believe she is my fated mate. Silly wolf superstitions. Whether that is true or not, isn't really important! I'm caught in between a cold-snap future and a hot-love pursuit... but I am Citra Lomdi and I will not be tamed. Not by the wolf within me I share this body with, the rogues that see me unmarked, or the Alpha that can set my blood on fire with her amazing restraint. The only problem is: Helene was pregnant before she died. So now, I am too.

By correcting the mistakes of his past, he will protect what he loves—defying the fate thrust upon him—while questioning his role and the darkness that encroaches him.

-- WSA 2025 Entry -- “Five… Four… Three… Two… One…” As the countdown towards the new year went on to the last second, Miles looked up to the sky, just as everybody else did. In the middle of the crowded street, Miles for once felt like he belonged. Being a teenage gamer, living with his parents, and trying to build a life as a streamer, he did not feel like leaving his room every day. But there, in the middle of that crowded street, with everyone around him paying attention to the sky, the countdown on the digital billboard, and mostly anything else but him., Miles felt like a ghost. A welcomed ghost, but a ghost, after all. With a smile on his unseen face, he looked up as the countdown reached one, and everybody sang in unison. ‘HAPPY NEW YEAR!” But Miles’ eyes widened as he watched in utter horror, and curiosity, even, hovering above him, a holographic screen with a few lines of text written in it. All around him, although he did not pay much attention to it, a few other people seemed to experience the same situation. [Updating home-world 39515’s version] [Version 20.25 update brings a lot of fun and games with the new and improved survival mode] [Do you want to convert your previous avatar to home-world 39515’s latest version?] [Yes] [No] “Survival… Mode?” Miles’ lips quivered. Before he could think of anything else, though, the people around him began to scream…

They came for war. Humanity wasn’t ready… but neither were they. When Earth’s defenses crumble against an unknown alien force, survival becomes a desperate gamble. Elite fighter pilot Jack Mercer uncovers a horrifying truth—this invasion isn’t about conquest. It’s about extermination.

When 18-year-old Mykal receives an unmarked package containing a sleek, unfamiliar phone, he thinks nothing of it, until he realizes he can’t get rid of it. No matter how many times he throws it away, drowns it, or even burns it, the phone always returns. Worse, it has no apps, no signal, and only 7% battery remaining. Then he meets Kyne, another owner of the same cursed device, except Kyne’s battery reads 1%. He reveals the horrifying truth: the battery isn’t power, it’s a countdown. A timer measuring the years of life its owner has left. And when it hits zero? No one survives. But the phone isn’t just a death sentence, it’s power. Anything Mykal searches for on its browser can be pulled into reality. Money, weapons, even supernatural artifacts. But power like this doesn’t go unnoticed. The black market, the government, and entities beyond human understanding want it and they’ll do anything to take it. As Mykal is forced into a deadly game of survival, he must unravel the true purpose of the phone before his own countdown runs out. Because once it does… he won’t just lose his life, he might lose his very existence.

Spiritual Qi Resurgence, Gods descending? Continuous disasters, all living beings suffering? What does it have to do with me? I'm just a patient with an incurable disease, who's been given up on treatment and has a countdown to death. Embarking on the path of exorcising demons and annihilating immortals with my crippled body is not for the sake of protecting my family and country, but because the hazardous duty pay is too tempting, especially the compensation... "This Evil Gods profession system is cursed, even if there's smooth progress in the early stages, the practitioners will eventually commit suicide..." "Give me a set." "This Demon Sword poisons its user and has already taken ninety-nine lives..." "Give me two, and also that man-eating demonic helmet, soul-devouring blood claws, get me a set." "This Magic Potion is harmful to heaven and earth..." "Enough talk, I'll take them all!" However, the problem is, why am I still alive after taking on all these high-risk missions, stepping on every risk, and doing every deadly task? 【Congratulations, congratulations! Ranked first among the Top Ten Heroes Who Moved the World...】 "...Heavens, wasn't the average life expectancy in this line of work three and a half years? I've been here for one cycle of three years after another, I'm almost an S-level hunter, the first of the top ten heroes! Why am I still alive? I just want to make an honor sacrifice, scam some compensation! Is that so hard?!"

The fallen ones, strange monsters that showed up on earth with the sole purpose of destroying everything and ruling over humans.

Orson, a disgraced former eSports champion, finds himself reborn on the opening day of Infinite Dimensions, a hyper-realistic virtual reality game that secretly doubles as humanity’s last line of defense against alien forces.

Kisha Aldens is a normal office worker with average earnings, not until she suddenly sees a system countdown in front of her. Her mind suddenly received a prompt warning about the apocalypse and urged her to integrate with the system to assist her with her survival. "Have I overworked myself again?" She thought while pinching the bridge of her nose. She blinked a few more times but the system interface is still there. Little did she know that this system would be her last lifeline in the upcoming apocalypse where human morals would be the lowest, trust is only a word and betrayal could happen in the blink of an eye. A naive person like her had to learn her lesson the hard way on how to survive and navigate in the zombie-infested world. And the worst part, she had to die 99 times to harden her heart and learn how to read the human heart. How will her 100th time be different from the previous lives, will she survive this time? And will survival be her only problem in the heart of the Apocalypse? No, there was a deeper scheme in play which she has to uncover moving forward.

Anakin wakes up with a countdown above his head—72 hours left to live. As he navigates his final days, old wounds resurface, love confessions are made, and buried secrets threaten to shatter everything. Can he find peace before time runs out

"You shouldn’t be alive." Kael’s voice was quiet, but the weight behind it sent a chill down Sienna’s spine. His silver eyes locked onto hers, searching—no, demanding—answers she didn’t have. She crossed her arms, lifting her chin. “And yet… here I am.” Sienna Blackwood has spent her whole life on the fringes, a ghost in her own pack. Born under the cursed Blood Moon, unable to shift, unwanted and barely tolerated. She thought she knew her place—until the night she was attacked. Until the night she should have died. But she didn’t. And now, she’s standing before Alpha Kael Voss, a man who doesn’t believe in fate, yet is staring at her like she just shattered his entire world. The High Council calls her an abomination, a threat that needs to be eliminated. Kael should agree—he’s never been one to disobey the law. Except something about Sienna doesn’t make sense. And the more he tries to ignore it, the more the truth claws its way to the surface. A prophecy was buried. A past was erased. And the moment Sienna took her first breath, the countdown to war began. She wasn’t supposed to survive. She wasn’t supposed to exist. But the forsaken always find a way to rise.

Ten years ago, the world was captivated by a groundbreaking VR MMORPG, a fully immersive experience that allowed players to step into the shoes of legendary heroes in a realm of magic and wonder. For a decade, they built their lives, forged their identities, and left their marks on what they thought was just a game. But when the servers shut down, the truth shattered everything. The game world wasn’t just a virtual reality, it was a fabricated timeline, a fragile imitation of the true Magic world . And now, the countdown has begun. The players, ripped from their lives on Earth and the simulation, find themselves in the Magic World, ten years younger but burdened with all the memories of the game and their old lives. Their in-game personas, once vibrant and driven by purpose, are now hollow shells, unable to act on their own. Even worse, Earth’s timeline fragile and unprotected has been paused, and its collapse is inevitable. To prevent disaster, the 10 Originals, the most renowned players of the game, must rise once more. But this time, there are no systems to guide them, no respawns, and no safety nets. The high realm is real, its dangers far deadlier than any raid boss. And as the countdown ticks away, inconsistencies between the worlds begin to unravel reality itself. Thrown into a world they don’t fully understand, hunted by their own past mistakes, and racing against time to stop the collapse of Earth’s timeline, the Originals must uncover the secrets of the game’s creation and find a way to stabilize the Magic World. The clock is ticking, and the fate of three worlds rests on their shoulders. Will the Originals be able to fix the chaos they caused, or will everything they fought for crumble into nothingness?

{Warning! Zone 1 will be closing in a countdown} Alexi was the name he had just learned after reading the label on his shirt. Where was he? Alexi did not understand why his memories seemed to be erased one by one, not to mention the place he stepped on this time. The sound of strange noises, unfamiliar to his world, now seemed to take him to a new world. Rules with various missions that he had to carefully go through. [Mission] [Status] Survival Zone, might be an appropriate phrase for him and his colleagues he met in this new game world. Can he survive there? Is there an end to the game?

On new year eve a very popular VRMMORPG was going to release globally from Korea, where over 5 million players joined the server of the world of destiny. However when the countdown of the full version reach zero none of the players were able to log out or log in. All of the players that were in the game were teleported to the central plaza in the town of level 0, with the exception of a few of them. A giant white hooded avatar appeared in front of the players hovering high above the sky from them. He explained to them that this virtual world is their new reality, and if they wanted to escape they would have to defeat every boss. Starting from level 1 all the way to level 100, each boss getting more difficult than the last. However they would soon come to realise that the monster and bosses in this world isn't going to be their only enemies.

In a city where shadows hold more power than light, Detective Marcus Trent is drawn into a web of deceit, manipulation, and a chilling game that threatens to unravel everything he knows. When he receives an anonymous message promising disaster, Marcus finds himself chasing a series of cryptic clues that lead him to a mysterious figure known only as The Shadow—a mastermind pulling the strings from behind the scenes. The clues are sinister: coordinates, encrypted messages, and cryptic warnings, all leading Marcus to a chilling truth—someone is always one step ahead. As the puzzle pieces fall into place, Marcus discovers that the game is more than just about tracking a criminal. It’s a countdown to a terrifying revelation—the endgame has already begun. As the stakes rise and more lives are threatened, Marcus is forced to confront his own demons and question the trust he places in his colleagues. With no allies, no clear path forward, and the shadow of the mastermind looming closer, Marcus must navigate a treacherous maze of false identities, hidden motives, and twisted alliances. The question is no longer just who is behind the chaos, but how far will they go before Marcus becomes the next pawn in a game where no one wins?

Three centuries ago, the Gates appeared vast, otherworldly portals linking Earth to realms beyond comprehension. Neither man-made nor natural, they were constructs of unknown gods, their purpose shrouded in mystery. From these Gates came beings of immense power, capable of either destruction or enlightenment, heralding Earth’s potential transformation. Humanity was meant to fall 200 years ago, but something unknown delayed the apocalypse. The Gates, still standing, became enigmatic fixtures of life. Their true purpose was forgotten—until Viktor, a wandering ex-soldier, stumbled upon the system's "Missing piece": Luck. His discovery unleashed the cataclysm. A message echoed worldwide: “The world has discovered the missing piece of the system: Luck. Countdown remaining for the breaking of the gates: 48 hours.” The collapse began. Monsters surged from the Gates, bringing realms of magic and nightmares into Earth’s fragile reality. Cities fell, governments crumbled, and survival became the only goal. Marked by an impossibly maxed Luck stat of 9,999, Viktor became humanity’s reluctant hope to stop the chaos abound. Time is running out. The Gates have broken. The monsters are here. Let the battle for survival begin.

--- Pain. Pain that twists the soul and leaves scars deeper than any blade. The crushing weight of losing someone you love. The fire of revenge, burning hotter with each passing day. Alex Sylvannis, a genius, rises through the ranks faster than anyone could have imagined. They call him a *monster*. But is he truly a monster? Or is he something far more dangerous—a mind so advanced, so relentless, that it cannot help but outpace everyone around him? In a once-broken world, its shattered remnants hiding truths far darker than any could fathom, Alex is drawn to an ancient power—one that speaks to him in whispers, in fragments of memories that should not be his. With every passing day, the line between hero and villain grows thinner, and Alex must ask himself: *Am I the salvation this world needs—or the instrument of its destruction?* The world is on the brink of collapse, and its fate lies in the hands of one man. Will Alex Sylvannis, Eternal Demon/Savior Angel, stop the day of eternal damnation—or will he reignite it, bringing ruin upon them all?

The end of the world didn’t come with fire, war, or a nuclear countdown. It came with a System Notification. One moment, Kang Hyun-woo was just another office worker, stuck in a routine life. The next, the sky fractured like glass, revealing dungeons, monsters, and floating towers from other dimensions. Earth wasn’t alone anymore. The System had arrived, merging realities, game worlds, and forgotten dimensions into one. Millions of people vanished into Tutorial Towers, given powerful classes to survive the apocalypse. But Hyun-woo? He was left behind. He wasn’t chosen. He wasn’t guided. The System hesitated, as if he wasn’t supposed to exist. Then, the message appeared. > [UNREGISTERED ENTITY DETECTED. PROCESSING… PROCESSING…] [CLASS ASSIGNED: SUMMONER.] [TITLE ACQUIRED: HE WHO SUMMONS THE END.] Summoner. A class considered weak, barely useful. Three starting summons—a slime, a wolf pup, and a raven. But then Hyun-woo realized something terrifying. The System didn’t choose him. He chose it. Unfinished words from a novel he once wrote—the worlds, the monsters, the dungeons—they weren’t random. They were his. And if that was true… Then he was the one who summoned the end of the world. Now, trapped in a collapsing reality, hunted by both monsters and humans, Hyun-woo must evolve, adapt, and uncover the truth. Because if he doesn’t figure out the System’s real purpose… Then he won’t just die. He’ll watch as everything he created destroys itself.

"THE WORLD IS GOING TO END IN THE NEXT 1 HOUR." That’s it. No explanations. No solutions. Just a death sentence for the entire planet. And with those words, the world went mad. Screams filled the streets. Cars crashed, fires raged, prayers turned into sobs. People begged, fought, held onto the ones they loved—while others ran, desperate for one last chance to be with the person that mattered most. Karan was in Lonavala. Supriya was in Mumbai. Two hours apart. But they had only one. The roads were jammed, the world was falling apart, but he didn’t care. He had to get to her. If it meant running until his legs gave out, stealing a bike, dodging through riots and flames—so be it. He just wanted to see her. One last time. And Supriya? She wasn’t going to wait. If he was running to her, she would run to him. Even if it was impossible. Even if time was against them. They weren’t trying to escape the end. They weren’t trying to survive. They just wanted to reach each other. To hold each other. Just once. Before everything disappeared. One hour. A dying world. Two people fighting against time itself. Will they make it? Or will the end come before they do? The countdown has begun.

“Being a god sounds cool… until you realize your job is to not kill the heroes you’re sending to save the world.” Kaito thought his life was over when he died in the most embarrassing way possible (don’t ask—it involved a vending machine). But instead of eternal rest, he wakes up as a freshly minted Reincarnation God, responsible for sending heroes into fantasy worlds to defeat demon lords and save kingdoms. Simple, right? Wrong. With a glitchy divine system, a countdown timer, and zero experience, Kaito accidentally overpowers, underpowers, or straight-up breaks the three heroines he's supposed to reincarnate: Alicia, the Sword Heroine, now strong enough to split mountains… but can’t run faster than a turtle. Mira, the Mage Heroine, wields unlimited magic but risks nuking entire continents with a sneeze. Luna, the Healer Heroine, whose healing spells now harm instead of heal. Now, Kaito must guide these broken heroines from the divine realm, keeping them alive (and away from his divine wrath) while navigating hilarious ecchi mishaps, chaotic magic explosions, and accidental harem-building along the way. Can Kaito fix his mistakes before the heroines die—or worse, before he gets demoted to Toilet Cleaning God? Ecchi, comedy, isekai, and harem collide in this wild fantasy adventure!

[Anovolda] In a world ruled by a powerful Overlord who has defeated gods, monarchs, and even immortals, nothing remains to challenge THEM. "Yuri.” Bored with THEIR perfect reign, THEY sought excitement through playful destructions. But… at some point, even that lost its thrill. “Go and gather the twelve monarchs.” As the twelve monarchs from different realms gather at THEIR command, the Overlord makes an unexpected announcement—THEY will step down, THEIR subjects would build the greatest academy ever known, and guide the Future. “Haaaa…” TEHIR goal: to challenge fate once more, this time as a student in a school like no other, and live THEIR once forgotten life of a mortal. “My name is Zora.” … “N-no! I didn’t agree to this…!” … “Who would have thought? Huhuhu~.” … “What do you mean I can’t have a harem?” The countdown to THEIR return has begun, and the world is about to witness a new kind of Rule in a different form.

⟪ Congratulations. ⟫ ⟪ Congratulations. ⟫ ⟪ Congratulations. ⟫ [ YOU HAVE COMPLETED ALL THE NECESSARY REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECRET QUEST: ‘WILL OF POWERLESS.’ ] [ You are chosen as a Player. DO YOU WISH TO BECOME A PLAYER?: YES – NO ] "What? Is this… my awakening? Did others receive a message like this when they awakened?" The golden text hovered in front of my eyes, glowing ominously. Two options appeared before me—YES or NO. The choice was obvious. After waiting for so long, I was finally going to awaken. But something felt… off. "Player?" The term lingered in my mind. I had never heard of an awakened being referred to as a Player before. Normally, when someone awakened, a radiant golden light would envelop them. Once the process was complete, they could check their stats simply by saying: ⟪ Open Status. ⟫ But in my case, nothing happened. No golden aura. No familiar surge of power. This was… different. Before I could dwell on it further, another system notification flashed. DING! [ You have 3 seconds to answer. ] My eyes widened as I read the message. A countdown had already begun. 3… 2… 1… And — YES.
