Astashica: The Rise of Tlandar

ASTASHICA: The Rise of Tlandar By Karen Menjivar When the ancient Xothek Galaxy devoured itself in a brutal civil war, six visionary chieftains seized their last chance at survival. They hijacked a mighty warship, the Defiance Vanguard, and fled through a collapsing wormhole — carrying the remnants of their people, forbidden technologies, and the sentient AI grid known as XENOVIS. On the other side lay Astashica, a wild, uncharted world where they would forge a new beginning from the ashes of their lost civilization. Centuries later, Astashica stands on the brink of another apocalypse. Young Tlandar Varn, a humble cattle rancher from the village of Verdantis Nexus, sees his peaceful life reduced to embers when marauders strike without warning. Forced into exile with his family, Tlandar is chosen by the very spirit of Astashica to defend a world that has never known true peace. Guided by the legendary operative Akashma Xil’ha, Tlandar trains to master the ancient Formicron mechas — towering war machines from the Xothek’s darkest age. But what truly sets him apart lies deep within his DNA: a unique mutation, born from ancient Asemeri gene-splicing experiments, that grants him the rare ability to connect with technologies and forces long thought lost. His hidden legacy makes him the one hope to unite a fractured people against a rising tyrant. Now, as ruthless chieftain Cosmus plots to unleash the last of the Azurevat cataclysmic missiles and seize dominion over all Astashica, Tlandar must rally the scattered factions, reclaim the shattered alliances, and awaken the buried power that lives within him. From flooded marshlands to storm-wracked sanctuaries, he will stand at the heart of an ancient world where sentient machines guard forgotten secrets and monoliths control the skies. In a land where myth and memory blur, where lost empires still breathe through hidden AI and genetic legacies, The Rise of Tlandar is an epic saga of rebellion, sacrifice, and the indomitable spirit that refuses to die — a sweeping tale of one young protector destined to lead his people out of ruin and into a new dawn.

Obviously Humanity fought back, modern military power held out, but were pushed back. Variants; they were called, The Death seeker, most commonly seen, the accelerates and tankers. Guns, were not fast enough to land a hit on Accelerates, missiles not powerful enough to damage a tanker, and humanity were not careful enough for Death Seeker's, time to time referred as hunters. Humanity scavenged the technology and integrated it into there current technology, but that took a century. 20 years too crasp the fundamental of there technology. Although due too the lack of resources it took 70 years to adapt it. That was when they attacked back and pushed back the Domineer's on there back foot, Humanity recovered a century and two decades past and focused on offensive technology. And humanity decided they would not wait for them to come back so they went on the offensive. But in there haste the Domineer's targeted there military bases, food suppliers and once more humanity was on the cliff. 200 years of humanity keeping a stagnant clash, then being pushed back. 2480 AD Humanity was losing hope such as a man who was protecting his people that were in a underground base, as it was a secret supplier, to numerous base's.

Two decades past and Humanity found a way to give and teach theses abilities through MG serum's (Meta-Gene serum's) and a GI (Gene-Index) which contained information on the Meta-Ability.

Dane Harper's life was a monotonous grind. Stuck in a soul-sucking 9-to-9 job with barely any time to breathe, his only escape was the world of visual novels. From anime to manga, light novels to webnovels, Dane had consumed it all, but nothing compared to his ultimate obsession: Harem, Dragons, and Deities (HDXD). This legendary visual novel was a masterpiece of high fantasy, packed with detailed lore, jaw-dropping twists, and, of course, an insane harem of monster girls and powerful women. Dane had spent nearly 7,000 hours playing it, chasing every ending possible, especially the legendary [Overlord of Humanity Ending], where the protagonist builds a massive harem and spreads his superior genes across the HDXD universe. But when a cosmic accident caused by a mischievous witch-in-training, Beatrice, wipes out the entire human universe, Dane's life takes an unexpected turn. As the first soul to be reincarnated, Dane is offered two wishes by Beatrice: a world of his choosing and a fragment of her power.

This system not only helps him level up and gain unique powers but also guides him in building the ultimate harem.

This is HDXD we’re talking about; a world where one wrong move can lead to a bad ending so messed up it'll haunt your dreams. As such, every step towards that ending requires heart, commitment, and sheer will, and you best believe Dane is aiming for that ending at all costs.

Reincarnated To Evolve My Bee Empire

"Now, go forth, my mortal champion! Conquer this world—or else!" I lived a painfully average life and died by a stupid, stupid accident, but a goddess interfered, giving me a second chance in another world. There, I became royalty—the lazy kind with almost no obligations, free to live in peace and luxury for the rest of my days. Sounds like a dream, right? In reality, it was anything but—because I became *BEE* royalty. A Drone Bee, doomed to die of old age in 2 months! (A humanoid bee, thankfully, but still a bee in all the ways that matter.) The only way to increase my lifespan is to develop and grow my bee colony—a deadly task in a vicious world like this one. There are murderous insect monsters, colossal beasts trampling the earth, other civilizations, natural disasters, and the bitchy patron goddess who absolutely hates me. But as long as I have my brains, my bees, and the powerful genes my system gives me, my Bee Empire will be unstoppable! === For those who want to know more: This is a wholesome comedic story, but it has some dark moments. The focus is on kingdom building, survival as an empire, and interacting with MC’s beautiful bee wife and adorable bee daughters. The bees are all humanoid (see pictures) and human-sized. However, they are still bees in their ways of life and mentality. Although there’s a system, real growth comes from putting effort and time. Nothing happens in an instant in this story, unless it’s trouble. MC acts like an idiot sometimes (oftentimes), but he’s not actually stupid-stupid. When it comes to strategic decisions, he uses logic and reason. Even if you might disagree with it. Also, there will be no smut (ecchi is a fair game), incest, NTR, harem or BL. === Discord is up! Find it at -> https://linktr.ee/Garessta Updates: 2 chapters/day, right after the reset (with a 5% chance of running late). Reply to author's pinned review if you have questions. Also, although I realize the futility of this aim (at least right now), if this novel reaches top 15 golden ticket ranking (and stays there for a few days, obv), I will mass release 10 extra chapters! (within 30 calendar days)

Mythic Gene Architect : Evolution Through Pain

Mythic Gene Architect: Evolution Through Pain Shen Yue was a genius developer, pushing himself to the limit to complete his most ambitious creation: the Mythic Gene Evolution System—a sci-fi cultivation simulator where strength came only through blood, pain, and ruthless decision-making. But he pushed too far. And he died. Only, death wasn’t the end. Shen Yue wakes up inside a cultivation novel he once read—in the broken body of a 14-year-old boy with the same name. A forgotten side character. Betrayed, crippled, abandoned. But not truly alone. For years, his elder sister has sacrificed everything—her time, her health, and her future—to care for him. Now, with his new system awakened inside him, Shen Yue is determined to stand back up—not for power, but for her. The world, however, is no longer what he remembered. The plot is shifting. Characters aren't following their destined arcs. Events are spiraling off course. Even his sister, who was originally fated to join the Jade Flower Sect, now walks an entirely new path. And through it all, the Mythic Gene System speaks: cold, sarcastic, but always brutally honest. Compatibility rates. Gene pain thresholds. Memory echoes. Emotional backlash. Shen Yue must bleed to grow stronger—there are no shortcuts. To survive, to protect, and to change fate— he must rewrite the story from the inside out.

The Day They Walked

In 1972, a groundbreaking discovery by Herbert Boyer and Stanley Cohen in genetic engineering, where they created the first transgenic organisms by inserting a resistance gene into an E. coli plasmid, sparked both immense scientific excitement and public backlash. While many hailed it as a monumental step forward, others protested, fearing humanity was "playing God." Amidst this controversy, Jeremy Karlson, a renowned paleontologist, recognized the profound potential of Boyer and Cohen's work. He saw it as a means to achieve something unprecedented: bringing dinosaurs back to life. Jeremy, accompanied by his wealthy step-brother Jake, who offered to fully fund the ambitious project, met with Boyer and Cohen. Jeremy revealed that during an expedition in Alaska, his team had discovered a perfectly preserved, 17,000-year-old juvenile dire wolf with intact organs, from which they successfully extracted degraded DNA. He believed that with Boyer and Cohen's expertise in transgenic technology, they could use this DNA, and by extension, potentially dinosaur DNA, to resurrect extinct creatures. Initially hesitant and skeptical of the audacious proposition, Boyer and Cohen were eventually swayed by Jeremy's unwavering confidence and the sheer magnitude of the idea. With Jake's financial backing and Jeremy's bold vision, they agreed to collaborate. The project, estimated to take four to five years, aimed to apply the nascent field of genetic engineering to the realm of paleontology, promising to reshape the world in an unimaginable way. As they left, Jeremy mused that when their success became public, the world would be irrevocably divided.

Gene System

Blake is a young man who has had to suffer through devastation over and over again losing more than just an arm. With no power of his own he could barely stand a chance against others or even be deemed useful by the military. All he can do is accept his sister's help bitterly knowing he can't return it to the same effect. After a series of events a meeting with near death shocks him to his very core changing his life forever. Awakening a hidden element buried deep within his genetic code. The Gene System, an advanced complex genetic technology used to expand and improve the overall potential and direction of evolution for the user's genetic code naturally mapping out and directing where the user should go with the growth they obtain. Not much else is known, only that few on every planet are given one through unknown means. The current state of the world is racked with unbridled chaos as the military fruitless attempts to stop the atrocities committed by the organisation known as the Gene hunters. Seeking to steal and splice any genetic data they can get their hands on by whatever psychotic means whether it be dissection, slow harvesting or cloning ethics are not a concern. Hundreds of thousands have been affected by the gene hunters including Blake's family. Some are never seen again, just used as cows for genetic harvesting over and over again until they dried up never to see their families again. Changes have begun to sprout in the background of earth leading to more and more mysterious events occurring, genetic powers becoming stronger, animals becoming mutated and evolving faster than normal generational lines. All the while in the background an unknown force beyond human comprehension lurks just beyond the veil waiting patiently for the time to run out and indulge in his planet level feast devouring all life in sight. Blake will give his all to overcome these brutal circumstances by whatever means. No matter the pain, suffering or loss he will continue to go forward no matter the cost. Failure isn't a devastation but a stepping stone in his larger goal. In his pursuit to build his strength he wont forget where he came from guarding the weak as someone who grew from that. Seeing the lack of care or acknowledgement to the majority viewed as weak in the military disdain makes him step up as the leader needed to change the structure of this world for the better. In the weak there is strength which Blake knows all too well. His reason to go forward is to become the man he wants to be. The only thing that truly terrifies is the idea of letting it all go, giving up and betraying himself and his potential.
