《The Connections》The Library

Zach's mind fled from him as his head hit the pillow. Fleeting flashes blurred his vision and he rubbed them to ward off the assault.
"Zach, you have run out of time to master your ability. You must find the source crystal and give humanity the chance to survive." A familiar voice rang out.
"Con is that you?" Zach asked.
" It is, but there is no time for friendly chit chat. You must find the source crystal and replenish humanity's life." Con said urgently.
With a blinding white light Zach woke up in a cold sweat. "The source crystal? What the hell is the source crystal?" Zach asked himself. Conner might know.
Zach jumped out of his bed and pulled on a pair of jeans and a shirt before running out to find Conner.
"The source crystal? I don't know about it personally but I'm sure the archive would know." Conner said, after Zach found and explained what Con told him. Both of them ran up to the doors of the library but were being locked up for the night.
"Stop, we need to get in there now, this is important!" Zach said, urgently.
"Don't you think it is a little too late to be doing last minute homework?" The librarian asked.
"This is not homework, this is a mission from the very connection itself!" Conner exclaimed.
Rightly chastised the librarian unlocked the door and followed the two boys into the dark room. Zach made a B line straight to the archive obelisk. Tapping the closest screen to him, Zach asked for the archives. "Just a moment." The voice said and just like on that fateful day when Zach met Conner the blue crystal shattered and the fragments fell to form a search engine. Rapidly Zach typed in the Source Crystal and was met with one single result.

"I have found one reference to 'Source Crystal', do you want to see it?" The Archives asked.
"Yes!" Conner said.
"The source crystal is the focus of a legend where it is to be thought that The connection was first established in the human race. It is said that it is the very point where the 'big bang' occurred leaving an energy so strong that it could create a god."
"Is there a mention of where this source crystal could be?" Zach asked.
"My apologies but this knowledge has been lost since the beginning of the Bronze Age."
Zach bowed his head in disappointment. "How will we find the source Crystal if we don't know where it is?" Conner asked no one in particular.
"Well I'm sure you could find a lead in the old story's of great England." The librarian said, a little interested.
Zach perked up and looked at Conner. "Sofia!" Both of them said in unison.
"I have an idea, but I need you to do me a favor for me." Zach asked the Librarian, "Gather every book worm in this school and bring them to the front of the gate as soon as possible. I will meet you there shortly."
Zach and Conner ran to Sofia's room and banged on the door.
"What the hell, do you know what time it is?" Sofia said, rubbing her eyes.
"We need your help, the entire human race depends on it!" Conner said.
"Whatever it is, I'm sure it can wait until morning." Sofia said, about to close the door.
"What do you know about the source Crystal?" Zach asked and Sofia froze.
"What the heck did you just ask?" Sofia said.
"the source crystal, we need to find it." Conner said.

Sofia slammed her door shut and about ten seconds later she opened it again, but this time she was fully dressed with her bag on her shoulder.
"How did you-" Conner said, but stopped considerably confused on how she changed so quickly.
"The source Crystal has been a pestering splinter in my mind ever since I heard of it." Sofia said, as they ran around the academy to grab the rest of the crew.
Not long after that almost half of the school was waiting outside the gates of the academy talking among themselves in quiet voices. When the six of friends walked up, the big group of people went quiet.
"All right everyone, most of you might know me from when my ability manifested. But for those who don't know me, my name is Zach Carter and I have word from the Connection. It has informed me that I must find the so-called Source Crystal and bring the connection back to the lives of the human race. How I will do that, I have no clue. But what I do know is that our best bet is that we find out where the Source Crystal is first." Zach called out to the group.
"And how will we do that? The Librarian said that the archives don't have the location of the Source Crystal in it's memory." A middle aged woman asked somewhere in the back.
"When I was little I found an old cavern filled with books and artifacts. We will be going there to try and find the location of the Source Crystal." Zach said.
"And you just now are telling us?" A man from the front asked.
"Why I did not tell anyone about this cavern is beside the point. What matters is that we find the Source Crystal and save humanity. You best be ready, because you are entering the Library Of Alexandria!" Zach said.

Emperor NPC
The Demon Emperor had taken one billion lives and conquered the realms of elves, dwarfs, and giants. When the final realm of man fell to his armies, the stage was set for their world’s finale. A spire of brilliant light pierced the sky, and as the land was torn asunder, the demon emperor met his death. It was not by the hands of a hero, or goddess’ champion, but by a system developer—a creator of the VRMMO Ark World—masquerading as a god! “It’s ironic that it would be you,” said a voice in the black void of the quantum system. “Strange, that you’ve given me this quest, and stranger that I can’t do it without you.” By the power of the thirteenth system developer, the “goddess” Amarytha, the demon emperor was reborn in a new video game where his character never came to be. In the Ark World Sandbox, humans rule as gods over nations of NPCs. Through mastery of their administration commands, they hold absolute control. Only the demon emperor, liberated by the Player System, can challenge them. A crusade begins with one step. Freedom from humanity begins here! ---------------- I'm going to be upfront here. This is not an anti-hero story. So, if you've come for anti-hero you might not enjoy it. The cover art I commissioned from my friend @cyborgraptor. You can find her on twitter, or tumblr. Absolutely awesome person, and way too humble. She's also a great dps on WoW, and her and I always fought for top of the meters. I update every day, or nearly every day. I'll be updating this quickly as I bring it to parity with my other sites. Afterwards, expect 6 or 7 chapters a week. This is my only job and I approach it professionally.

Daily life of a cultivation judge
Tired of those cultivators who think it is righteous to eliminate a sect or clan root and stem all in the name of revenge and avoiding future troubles, fights over treasures that end up destroying cities with no consequence whatsoever to the culprit, these psychos whose aim for the peak always involves a trail of carnage and bloodshed in its wake for some reason. Then look no further than the daily life of a cultivation judge. Yang Qing, is a young genius cultivator from a low-tier family whose only safe choice to get resources and hopefully lead an easy life led him to the courts of the Cultivation Order Society. Author’s disclaimer: Hey there this is my first novel so any criticism will be well taken though beware I’m a million-year-old monster who has cultivated the way of the sword to the peak. The daily life of a cultivation judge will be true to its name so it will be heavily on the slice of life lane with a bit of action here and there.Meaning we will see the life of Yang Qing when he clocks in and out. Hopefully, it will be one of those novels you read if you need to relax or are in a slacker mood like one of those otakus who listen to the noises of cicadas in the summer famously used in most animes. And it is in the slacker spirit that chapter release will be on Wednesday,Thursday and Friday. Sank yuuu Cover art by Conny Schneider on Unsplash

MY FAKE DUNGEON
Giant doors suddenly appeared all over the world. Alex knowing the truth, now has to wander beyond the doors to save his world. But he realized he alone wasn't enough so he sought help from the others, of which he called them... Players.. _______ A heads up, I'm sure you'd be able to infer from the synopsis, this is something like a dungeon owner mc but I just like to say that there is no heavy litrpg to this even thought the mc calls them players. No system (except for mc?) and no level up like that. Just mc trying to use people for his own good. If I had to describe this novel in three words it be, guns, despair, and monsters. WARNING: I'm a complete amateur at writing and my English sucks so.. yahh.. I will post these on other sites such as webnovel and scribblehub as well.
