Ayn Rand Institute Contest

Jahr 2056, in einer Stadt in der Region Yuan Jiang Su Jin. Auf dem Dach eines zerstörten, zertrümmerten sechsstöckigen Wohnhauses sitzt ein Teenager, der eine Kampfweste, eine militaristische Hose und legierte Kampfstiefel trägt. Auf dem Rücken trägt er einen sechseckigen Schild und ist mit einem Blutschatten-Kampfmesser ausgerüstet. Er sitzt schweigend am Rande des Daches. Zu dieser Zeit leuchtete der Himmel und ein erfrischender Wind wehte ihm entgegen. Doch in der zerstörten, verlassenen Stadt herrschte nur Stille, mit einem gelegentlichen Heulen, das das Herz höher schlagen ließ.

In her first life, Daria idolised her boyfriend, Rain, and ignored the flying red flags flashed in her face, the dubious friendship between her best friend Molly and Rain shoved to the back of her mind because she wasn't going home and couldn't afford to leave. At least, that is what she likes to tell herself. Until she returned from work early, a string of strange news alerts of people attacking each other worldwide forced her sweet boss to send everyone home for the day. Fighting the crowds of others running home, narrowly avoiding what she knew was a Zombie only to find out that Molly had accidentally fallen on top of Rain, repeatedly for months in her bed. Had they so quickly forgotten that this bed was brought with her clean money in her house? Apparently not, and in Daria's grief, she had awoken the power to control lightning and found herself seconds away from "accidentally" killing her snake of a partner. The other end of the snake had snuck up behind her and knocked her out. Now they had her house, locking her in the safe room and removing all the food, water, and exit buttons. When they tried to sell her to a research lab, she managed to blow up her safe room and force the door to open. But when she ran the several long streets towards her mom's hotel, she was turned away at the door by her stepdad, and he watched her get dragged away kicking and screaming, never to be seen again. She survived another year in the research institute, closer to looking like a mental asylum, being injected and subjected to strange tests before it was overrun, and they were left to die. In her second life, she won't be so short-sighted, and her boyfriend, best friend, stepdad and the entire institute will die and become a part of her system horde and her twisted relationship with a fellow patient from her first life will set them on the path of revenge and victory.

Ten thousand years later, ice has melted. The Soul Federation Scientific Exploration team found an egg with a gold and silver pattern on it in the far north of the land, and after examining it with an apparatus, they found out that there were vital signs inside. They hurriedly brought it back to the institute for hatching. The egg hatched, but it was a baby, a baby exactly the same as a human - a baby born out of an egg.

In a fractured multiverse where worlds collide and vanish, a mysterious and deadly game unfolds. Players from across realms—heroes, outcasts, and those lost to time—are summoned to compete in a brutal trial of survival. Each level of the labyrinth challenges their strength, cunning, and morality, pushing them ever closer to a dark unknown. At the heart of this cruel contest lies a secret: the labyrinth’s true purpose is far beyond the players’ comprehension. With each victory, the stakes rise, revealing layers of treachery, forgotten histories, and runes that bind the fates of the competitors in ways they can't begin to understand. As alliances form and break, and the game’s true architect lurks just out of reach, players must confront their deepest fears—and uncover the truth behind the labyrinth’s creation before it consumes them all. In this unforgiving world, there are no easy answers, and the path to victory is a descent into madness.

Nuclear war has devastated the Earth, leading to the abandonment of nuclear weapons following the discovery of relics and bloodline traits. A contractor of a relic is endowed with superhuman strength and speed, as well as resilience to most physical damage and illnesses. Dante's job is to subdue contractors and recover illegal relics. He is the only contractor capable of bonding with five relics. As the youngest member of the famed legends, Dante was believed to have a perfect life. However, everything changed in an instant, shattering his ideal existence. For the first time, he found himself powerless. Once hailed as both a hero and a prodigy, Dante had been reduced to nothing more than a ruthless hunter. Although his team's efficiency and recovery rate are outstanding, their brutal methods often overshadow their achievements. Dante is no longer seen as the prodigy of the legends. His comrades view him as a loyal guard dog, while his enemies see him as a ruthless bloodhound. The Apex Institute is where teenagers train to become future leaders. Thalia and her friends are graduating this year. Thalia possesses a unique bloodline trait that allows her to command the weather; she can invoke storms simply by concentrating.
