《The Land of the Unknown》Episode 1 (Part 3)
Advertisement
Tommy and Antonio left the library and wasted more time exploring the unfamiliar town until it got around the time for the Planetarium to start. Antonio looked at his watch while Tommy glanced at his map, hoping they went in the right direction.
The two arrived back at the Planetarium where an attendant showed them the way to the back door as a line of impatient people stepped inside.
Everyone found some good seats on the floor as the doors shut, and the big room got dark. The woman working there moved toward the orb in the center of the chamber and turned it, showing off some pictures while she narrated. The audience oohed at the different things happening in the day and night cycles.
Birds would fly, and clouds would take shape in the daylight, while shooting stars and owls flew by in the night. A shot of a meteor also showed up as it hit a planet called Cobrichi, resulting in an explosion of stardust. It flew over the crowd, almost as if one could touch it themselves.
Eventually, the show ended, and everyone applauded. The crowd left the area and headed to the gift shop and the museum next to it. After a while, Tommy and Antonio headed out of the Planetarium.
“That was so cool!” Tommy exclaimed, getting pumped up.
“Yeah, it was like a mix of 2D, and 3D rolled into one!” Antonio added.
“Couldn’t you just say 4D?” Tommy said, rolling his eyes.
“Or maybe it’s like a 4D slideshow?”
Tommy facepalmed and walked away.
“Hey, wait for me!” Antonio exclaimed, trying to follow his friend at a breakneck pace.

“Ok, I think we still have some time left,” Antonio checked his watch and confirmed.
“All right, let’s head to that science place,” Tommy replied. He took the map from his friend to take another look at it. “Do you have any idea where it could be?”

“Hmm, I’m not so sure where it could be exactly...” Antonio glanced over and sighed. “But I know we’ll find it, eventually, hopefully.” He pondered for a moment and thought up an idea. He reached into his pocket and pulled out his phone. He dialed up a number and placed the phone near his ear.
“Uh, what are you doing?”
“Calling my Uncle,”
“Oh, good idea.”
Soon, the phone came through. “Hey, Sam, it’s me. Yeah, I’m on a field trip with my friend in Aylont. Yeah. Uh-huh. I know. Can you tell me where your place is? Yes, that one. No, I won’t. I promise.” Antonio took another look at the map while Tommy tried to listen in on their conversation, for he did not understand what was going on at the other side of the phone. “All right,” Antonio continued. “I guess I’ll see you there then. Thanks so much and goodbye.” He hung up the phone and turned to his pal.
“So, how did it go?” Tommy asked, tapping his foot.
“Hand me the map." Antonio insisted. "I know where to go, just follow me.” He strolled along the sidewalk at a brisk pace.
“I take it you won't tell me until we get there?” He inquired, running over to catch up.
“Yep!”
“Ugh, of course...”

He is confronted by a crazy, enigmatic and powerful being who sees Dante as his chance to escape his prison. Tasked with a grand trial, Dante is dropped on a planet he no longer recognises and starts his perilous journey through the Ascended universe. In this universe resides an omnipotent system that quantifies everyone's existence into numbers, it also assists people in becoming more powerful. Join the main protagonist as he is pitted against powerful monsters, Angelic beings, Demons and much more. He makes friends and loyal companions along the way, unfortunately, he also attracts the attention of powerful galaxy-spanning organisations that want to use his power for their own nefarious purposes. Forewarning regarding the start of the story. This story contains graphic descriptions of violence. The first few chapters of the book focus mostly on characters experiences and state of mind. The protagonist doesn't start off as a hero, he's distressed, confused, scared and struggling for survival. LitRPG elements are sprinkled throughout these chapters but aren't initially at the forefront of the story. If you're willing to persevere, the LitRPG elements and significant progression become more heavily intertwined with the story as they become more relevant. Thank you. *** What to expect *** This is a Fantasy Adventure LitRPG. There’s gore, swearing, bad jokes and lots of struggling. (I like to make the character earn his power.)Book 1: Covers the characters' experiences in becoming accustomed to this new reality. There are chapters that focus on survival and hardship. He starts with literally nothing, gradually he accumulates incredible power. He achieves his power through completing various trials and encounters in his journey to find out who he is, and what he wants in this world. There’s a focus on the mental state of the protagonist and an alternating pace of writing to allow character development to occur. The planned second book will kick off at a much faster pace with more action, focus on the system, and delving into the purposes of the Grand trial assigned to the main protagonist.I aim to deliver a world with Interesting characters, Monsters, Magic, Epic battles, Levelling, System interaction, Skill creation, Trials (Quests), Dungeons, Training and more. *** Release ****Chapters will be around 2000-3000+ words long, averaging 2.5k. I’ve almost finished the first book and am trying to edit and polish the chapters that are being released.I aim to release 3-5 chapters a week.Please enjoy.
