Galaxy: One Against All Chapter 60: Kindness of a Stranger
When Drake lands in front of the inn, the teleportation capsule drains most of his energy, leaving him weak and wobbly. He stumbles forward, feeling as if the ground beneath him was shifting. His vision blurs as he tries to take a step, and he ends up falling to his knees in the soft dirt behind a house.As he tries to push himself up, a soft chime from the Alpha Link System reverberates in his mind, barely audible through the haze of exhaustion.«Ding![Alpha Link System Notification][Warning: High energy consumption detected. Current energy levels are critically low.][Initiating emergency energy regeneration protocol. The regeneration rate increased by 10% temporarily.]«Ding!Drake barely registers the notification as his body sways. The teleportation device lies next to him, still warm from the recent use.

Galaxy: One Against All Chapter 61: The Gathering Storm
Authors POV. Planets away from Aquamarine...In the sprawling metropolis of Lumis, the capital of the Commonwealth of Light, a different kind of gathering is taking place. The city is a marvel of futuristic design, with towering skyscrapers, floating platforms, and luminous streets. At the centre of the city, the Council of Light convenes in a crystalline tower that glows with an inner radiance.High Chancellor Elysia presides over the meeting, her presence commanding and serene. Her advisors, representatives from the various sectors of the Commonwealth, sit around a circular table, discussing the latest intelligence reports."We have received disturbing news from our scouts in the outer rim," says General Kael, a seasoned military leader with a stern expression. "There are signs of increased activity from the World Tree civilization. They are mobilizing, and their trajectory suggests they may be targeting Aquamarine."Elysia's eyes narrow. "Aquamarine? What interest could they poss

[ALSTAR, 160KM FROM GERMINAL ORGANIZATION AND THE SIX NATIONS]In a manor, heavily guarded by men in japanese samurai style, a crisp sound of heel shoes knocking against the tiles could be heard in the inner hall.Akira Nakamura, clad in black spandex and armed with two katana swords, strode into the hall with confidence. The seven middle-aged men seated around the round table looked up, their eyes fixed on her with a mix of curiosity and respect.Akira stopped in front of the eldest man, her father, Kenji Nakamura, and bowed deeply."Otō-sama, konbanwa." (Father, good evening.)Kenji Nakamura, the leader of the Yakuza, nodded slightly, his eyes never leaving hers."Akira, konbanwa. What brings you to this meeting?"Akira straightened, her eyes locked on her father's."I've received intel that the Triads are moving goods through our territory. I request permission to intercept them, otō-sama."The room fell silent, the only sound the soft hum of the tea kettle. Kenji's expression rema
Galaxy: One Against All Chapter 63 : Ambushed
The four trucks drove at a steady pace down the secluded road, Jian and the Triads members were on high alert. Suddenly, the lead truck burst into flames, blocking the road. The other trucks screeched to a halt, and the Triads poured out, shooting sporadically. They knew they had just been ambushed by the Yakuza."Incoming!" one of the Triad members yelled, as arrows rained down on the Triads.Jian leapt out of the truck, his two handguns at the ready. "Take cover!" He shouted to his team.The Triad members scattered, seeking shelter behind nearby rocks and trees. While Akira and her team charged forward, her sword flashing in the sunlight."Get down!" Jian Li yelled as he and his team returned fire.The battle was intense, with bullets flying and arrows thudding into flesh. Men screamed and fell, but Akira and Jian Li remained standing, their skills honed to perfection.Akira dodged a hail of bullets, her sword slicing through the air."You're good, but not good enough! Did you reall
Galaxy: One Against All Chapter 64. Duty and Loyalty
Akira drove the truck into the Yakuza territory. She had to meet her father and make a mission report.Akira walked into the meeting hall, her eyes fixed on her father and the elders seated at the table. She bowed deeply, her hands by her sides."Otō-sama, I have returned," she said, her voice steady.Kenji Nakamura's eyes narrowed, his gaze piercing."Akira, you're the only survivor?"Akira nodded, her eyes still cast down."Yes, otō-sama. The Triads misled us into thinking they were moving the crates to the Yagawazu warehouse, we made a change of plan at the last minute and ambushed them at the crossroads, I lost my team, but I managed to escape with the crates. Their Triads also suffered heavy losses as all their escorts were eliminated."The elders murmured among themselves, their faces grave. Kenji's expression turned stern."Akira, you know how important this mission was. Just tell me, did you complete it? Did you bring back those artefacts, and you're sure you killed every one
Galaxy: One Against All Chapter 65 : Choose
Jian Li spent the next few hours gathering intelligence on Akira's whereabouts. He knew she was a skilled fighter, but he also knew she had a weakness - her loyalty to the Yakuza. Although he didn't want to kill Akira as she had spared his life, he knew he could not back away from a mission. The moment he turns his back on his family will be the moment he ceases to exist.He tracked her down to a small bar on the outskirts of town, a known Yakuza hangout. This was his chance. Jian took his two best handguns, and a key to his powerbike and left the manor on his PCJ 600 powerbike.Jian Li stopped at the bar, he only called for two extra guys as a backup. This was supposed to be a stealth mission. He approached the bar cautiously, his gun hidden beneath his jacket.As he entered the bar, he spotted Akira sitting in the corner, her eyes fixed on him. She saw him being a bit fidgety as if he was steeling his resolve for something, that's when she knew he was there to kill her, but she didn
Galaxy: One Against All Chapter 66 : Truth or Lies
Jian Li walked into the Triad manor, his mind still reeling from his encounter with Akira. He couldn't shake off the feeling that his whole world was about to be turned upside down.As he entered the courtyard, a Triad member approached him."Jian, your father summons you." The Triad said and went off. He hadn't even bothered greeting Jian or helping him park his powerbike. Jian knew he had more or less lost his respect in the eyes of these Triads' low-level members. In a Mafia organization, only strength matters. Kindness and goodness, are all seen as weaknesses.Sigh!Jian nodded, his heart sinking. He knew he had to be careful what he said to his father. He made his way to Victor Li's office, his mind racing with thoughts of Akira and the Yakuza. When he entered the office, his father looked up from his desk, his eyes narrowing."Jian, I hear you failed to finish off Akira Nakamura even when you had it in front of you." Victor Li said, his voice cold.Jian bowed his head. "I apolog
Galaxy: One Against All Chapter 67 : A call for help
Akira sat in her brother's office, her mind racing with the impossible choice she faced. "Taro, I don't know what to do. Father wants me to lure Jian into a trap, but I can't do that. I owe him my life."Taro's expression was sympathetic, but his eyes gleamed with ambition. "I understand, sister. But you must think of the family's interests. Father's orders are not to be disobeyed."Akira nodded, but her heart was heavy with doubt. She didn't know that Taro was secretly planning to betray her and that his advice was merely a ploy to gain her trust.Meanwhile, Jian Li was facing his dilemma. His father, Victor Li, had ordered him to kill Akira, but he couldn't bring himself to do it. He had saved her life once, and he couldn't repay that debt by taking her life now.As Akira and Jian struggled with their loyalty and duty, the tension between the Yakuza and Triads continued to escalate. It was only a matter of time before the conflict exploded into violence. Akira knew that if she was t

Chapter 180 : Inexplicable
It was a few hours after the chaos in the pack house that Jeanne became enraged and walked away to clear her mind when she noticed a body in the thorn garden. "Who the hell is that?! " She mouthed, getting down from where she was to take a closer look at the body, when the two men who tortured Jasmine purposefully walked past her with fake stories running from their mouths. “ She is so shameless, How can an ordinary breeder try to steal from another breeder, it's disgusting” The tall one with the name, Matt said with a surprised tone. "I am wondering where she went to hide, such a shameless girl." Jeanne listened to everything they said before calling them back. "What exactly are you talking about?, "Who is this breeder?" Asking, hoping it was Jasmine, was Jeanne's thought. With a mouthful that called attention to himself and others, the tall man was about to respond when he looked sideways and noticed Jasmine's body in the thorn garden. "What an asshole that new
Chapter 176. No regard
Suddenly, an idea occurred to Drake. He abruptly tossed the book to a side and proceeded to stare at the gun on the guard's to waist with a blank expression.Hila frowned but did not act. Everyone looked to see what Drake was up to. Drake walked rigidly towards the guard. As if to make his intentions extremely clear, he reached out exaggeratedly for the gun.The guard instinctively drew his gun, and although Drake did not seem to have any intention of snatching it, he tightened his grip. As Drake was moving extremely slowly, the guard did not see a need to fire.“Unload the gun and let him have it.” ordered Hila. She was keen to know Drake's motives.The guard obliged and proceeded to do so.Upon receiving the gun, some information popped up on Drake's interface.«73-WASP (Small Caliber Handgun)Grade: GreyDamage: 28~35Fire rate: 1.1/sPower Output: 13Key Components: Spring, slide, firing pin, magazine (missing)»[Basic Assembly] automatically gave Drake knowledge about many types
Chapter 175. No way
Drake's heart sank. Brainwashing was a common method of subordination, and while in the game, a brainwashed character would simply become an ally of the faction, it was completely different now! Losing his sense of self was the worst case scenario.'No way!'The good news was that memory altering technology available on the planet was still under-developed, so the organization's method were very primitive; they made use of sensory stimuli to re-calibrate the subject. A character with at least ten points in intelligence would be immune to the effects of the brainwash.Valkyrie had already given Drake a +1 boost to the growth of potential of Endurance. Growth potential was an innate star that affected the growth rate of the affected stat. Different races had differing starting potentials in each stat, and in the entire world of Galaxy, humans generally had a mediocre growth rate. They did, however, boast the highest intelligence potential. As they also possessed the lowest Health, this
Chapter 174.Organization
“Thank God I have a system!” Drake was ecstatic but quickly discovered that there were several irregularities.'NPC, not a player? Countdown timer? Torturous future ahead?'Drake furrowed his brows as he organized his thoughts.First of all, although he had no idea how the system had transmigrated together with him, he had to treat this world as a new reality, meaning that if he died, he could not bank on being able to respawn like in the game, he will be dead for good.Secondly, he could still access the system's interface despite being classified as an NPC. This suggested that he could still level up like a player, which was good news.Thirdly, if the countdown timer confirmed his suspicions that he had indeed traveled back in time to before the game's launch, did it mean that 'real players' will soon appear?Lastly, and most important of all, the 'torturous future ahead' meant only one thing; he was currently in grave danger!Drake felt indignant. Didn't people who transmigrated no
Chapter 173. Test successful
“Test subject number 24. The subject lasted for two minutes and forty-five seconds after the administration of Valkyrie. Time of death: 4:22AM.”'I should be the only one at home. Who's talking?'Drake opened his eyes, only to be blinded by light. The familiar hatch of his VR capsule was no longer there, instead he was facing a white ceiling. The walls that surrounded him were also white and reminiscent of cold, hard metal. They felt like something straight out out of science fiction. The room resembled an intensive care unit, and Drake lay atop a cold metal table, barrel-chested and wired to all sorts of machines. His back was freezing.Drake noticed there was a group of people in white coats surrounding him, and they were looking at him as though they had seen a ghost.'I thought I just accepted a leveling request? Where am I?'«Ding!Alpha Link System initialized. Host selected; Drake Michaelson of East View New Jersey. Welcome.»«Ding!Alpha Link System activated. Transferring unp
Chapter 172. First Blood
A bright light flashed and a humanoid figure dressed in military uniform appeared. This figure looked exactly human but a bit unrealistic. It looked human, but it wasn't human. It had an oval face, lean body and wavy hair. It's military uniform fitted his tall lean body. This was the character of Drake in the game 'Galaxy'.“Alright, the war between Germinal and the Six Nations is still ongoing. The quest states that I have to meet up an old soldier in a little bunker and obtain more information about the war from him.” Drake spoke to himself. Just as he was about to move, he heard a bang, and a red light flashed in front of him, he felt a stinging pain on his right shoulder.-48He had been been shot. He pulled his gun and turned around. Facing him were seven individuals dressed in all black, even their faces were covered with black colored masks. But he knew who theses were; The Gator Crew. This group always bullied him, both at school and even in the game.“What do you want! Tony.”
Chapter 171. Transmission
Drake plunged his knife into the Devourer's core, but it was like striking a mountain. The blade shattered, sending Drake flying across the room.The Devourer's laughter boomed. "You dare challenge me?"Arianna's voice came through the comms. "Frequency amplified! We're disrupting its energy!"Elara's eyes locked onto the Devourer. "It's working! Keep going, Arianna!"The Devourer stumbled, its power faltering. Drake took advantage of the opening."Let's end this!" Drake shouted, charging forward.The Phoenix's crew joined the fray, unleashing a fierce assault. The Devourer's defenses crumbled under the onslaught.Kael's voice, barely audible, whispered through the comms. "Drake...stop...the...Devourer..."Drake's eyes narrowed. "Kael? You're still alive?"Kael's voice grew stronger. "Use...the...Code...Drake..."Elara's eyes widened. "The Eternity Code! We can use it against the Devourer!"Arianna's fingers flew across the console. "I'm uploading the Code's data!"The Devourer's eyes
Chapter 170. The Trial of Worthiness
The Council led Maya to a vast, ancient chamber deep within the mothership."This is where the Trial of Worthiness will take place," Arkea explained.Drake's eyes locked onto Maya. "I don't want you to do this."Maya's determination shone. "I have to, Drake."Arianna's gaze flicked between them. "What happens during the trial?"Arkea's expression turned somber. "The trial will test Maya's courage, wisdom, and willingness to sacrifice."Elara's eyes narrowed. "What kind of challenges will she face?"Arkea's voice dropped. "That is for the trial to reveal."The Council departed, leaving Maya alone in the chamber.A low hum filled the air as the trial began.Maya stood tall, her heart pounding.Suddenly, the chamber erupted into chaos.Illusions assaulted her senses, testing her courage.Maya navigated the maze of reflections, her wits guiding her.But with each step, the challenges intensified.A figure emerged from the shadows.Kael."Welcome, Maya," Kael sneered. "I've been waiting."
Chapter 169. Uncharted Territory
The Phoenix shuddered, dodging blaster fire from the Germinal warship."Can we outrun them?" Maya asked, her eyes locked onto the viewscreen.Arianna's fingers flew across the controls. "Not forever."Drake's jaw clenched. "We need a plan."Elara's gaze turned thoughtful. "I know a hidden route through the Nebula of Erebus."Drake's eyes narrowed. "Is it safe?"Elara nodded. "Safer than facing the Germinal head-on."The Phoenix veered into the nebula, its engines straining.The Germinal warship followed, its sensors struggling to penetrate the dense gas."We're losing them," Arianna said, her voice laced with relief.But Drake's instincts screamed warning. "Don't celebrate yet."Suddenly, the nebula erupted with energy blasts."What's happening?" Maya shouted.Elara's eyes widened. "The nebula's unstable. It's going to collapse."The Phoenix careened through the chaos, narrowly avoiding destruction.As they emerged from the nebula, the Germinal warship reappeared."Victor's not giving
