Chapter 1: Host Found, System Activated
In an abandoned decrepit warehouse, the dimly lit space was filled with dust and shadows. The sound of dripping water echoed throughout the cavernous room. Arden's eyes scanned the area, searching for any sign of the girl he was determined to save.
He had overheard her pleading for help just when he was walking by the road, Arden tried to ignore it, but his conscience won't let him, and so here he was, wanting to save the unknown beauty in dismal condition.
Soon Arden spots a huddled figure in the corner, hidden beneath a tattered blanket. It's Emma, a timid girl who has become the target of a group of bullies.
Arden was a little surprised to see Emma, though they didn't have much interaction in the past; Emma was actually Arden's coursemate in college.
Determined to protect her, Arden approaches cautiously.
Suddenly, the warehouse doors creaked open, and two burly bullies, Max and Vince, who Arden recognised, stepped inside.
They oozed an air of arrogance and cruelty as they sized up Arden.
These two had normally bullied every weak college student just to satisfy their sadistic desires. Arden had also been among the victims, and he never thought that he'd run into them when he ventured in here.
Max chuckled. " Well, well, well. Look who we have here. The hero is trying to save his little damsel in distress."
Vince mocked, "Aww, how cute. You think you can take us on, little boy?"
Arden's face hardens with determination as he positions himself in between the bullies and Emma. He knows he is outmatched, but he wasn't going to let these bastards hurt an innocent girl.
"Leave her alone," Arden struggled to speak.
Max and Vince exchanged wicked smiles before lunging towards Arden. A fierce fight ensued, with Arden skillfully dodging their punches and landing a few strikes of his own. However, the bullies overpower him with their sheer size and aggression.
Max lands a brutal blow to Arden's abdomen, causing him to double over in pain. Vince seizes the opportunity and delivers a devastating punch to Arden's face, sending him sprawling across the dusty floor.
Emma watches in horror, her eyes brimming with tears.
While sobbing, she exclaimed meekly. "Please, stop! Leave him alone!
The bullies pay no attention to Emma's pleas. Max grabs Arden by the collar, lifting him up effortlessly.
"You should've minded your own business, boy." Max grinned.
Vince joins in, raining down a barrage of punches on Arden's defenseless body. Each blow lands with sickening thuds, accompanied by Arden's anguished cries. The warehouse reverberates with the sound of the brutal assaults.
As Arden's vision blurs, his strength wanes as he can no longer protect himself. Bloodied and broken, he collapsed to the floor, unconscious.
Emma's cries intensify as she rushes to Arden's side, cradling his battered body.
"I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry…" the girl wailed pitifully.
Max and Vince stood triumphant, their faces twisted with sadistic satisfaction.
They exchange a cold glance before turning on their heels and exiting the warehouse, leaving behind a trail of devastation.
At this point, the two lost interest in bullying the meek girl.
Just when Arden went unconscious, something strange was happening in his head.
[ Host Found]
[ System Activated]
[Welcome to the Ultimate Leveling System.]
Arden's ears were assaulted by the sound of a voice that was mechanical and robotic.
[ Analysis of Host's physical condition, Initiate.]
[ Error, the planet does not have the required energy to fully function; Host is going to be teleported to another planet that is currently being drafted for the introduction phase.]
"What? Hello?" Arden shouted, or at least he thought he did because the complete absence of light appeared to act as a natural insulator.
"What's going on here? What are you? How are you speaking in my head!" Arden shouted, but all that answered him was the continuous ramblings from the mechanical voice.`
[ Teleportation successful, Initiate Phase of the Incursions. The first phase begins, and hosts have spawned In a jungle of carnage. The goal is to ensure that the host is given the right environment to grow quickly]
After hearing the mechanical voice, Arden's heartbeat drastically sped up, and he experienced a faint sense of dread.
He was told that he would spawn at some unknown location called the jungle of carnage; if all of this was real, then it isn't good news, right?"
A few minutes later, Arden regained consciousness while lying face down on the ground.
As he considered his current situation, he felt sluggish and perplexed. He then shook himself, stood up, and coughed up a few blades of grass.
His body was still suffering from whatever had happened to him previously, so he glanced around his surroundings
"Thank goodness I am not dead, but I don't feel like a man anymore; those scumbags sure beat me up quite badly."
"Wait a second? This isn't the warehouse?, and it doesn't look like Earth, wait, am I in heaven or hell? Where the hell is this freaking place!"
All around him was a perfectly alien looking surrounding with nothing but a vast disorientated terrain filled with large alien plant life.
"Where the hell am I?"
Arden's current location gave him an uncomfortable sensation that what had happened before he lost consciousness was more than simply a dream.
"Am I really dreaming?" Arden mumbled. He tried pinching himself dozens of times and even opened and closed his eyes, but everything remained the same,
The color of the sun in the sky world was blue, and the color of the sky was red; the clouds were absent, and everything looked upside down.
"This place is real, but where is this? why am I here? Does it have to do with the mechanical voice?" just when he thought of the mechanical voice, he thought of everything it said to him.
"Oh my goodness, don't tell me that all that mumbling about the jungle of carnage is real. Am I in deep trouble?"
Arden started to panic, but he immediately took deep breaths to calm down and tried to think things through.
"Ok, let's calm down; things haven't gotten that bad; I just got to find somewhere safe; nothing should happen to me if I hide."
Just then.
"ROAR!!
A beastly roar suddenly rang behind Arden, making him tremble in fright.
"What the fuck is that animal? it doesn't sound like any animal I know.
Arden thought as he peered in the direction of the sound, but before he could even turn his head to see where it was coming from, he heard the system's words ringing in his head.
[ Host's initiation mission, beast survival begins now: in this mission, host is required to survive the attacks of the hungry Direbrinbare for two minutes.]
"What? What the fuck is a Direbringbare!" Arden cried out.

"WHAT… Th..The HELL IS THIS!" Arden yelled hysterically. In his eyes, the image reflected a huge creature three times the size of a bear, weighing around 1,800 pounds, and standing up to 10 feet tall on its fore and hind legs was galloping towards him in the midst of falling trees. The sight of the Direbrinbare made Arden shake uncontrollably in fright. Never in his entire life had he come across something as enormous, ghastly, and terrifying as he was gazing at right now. The Direbrinbare was a red-furred monster with a seal's face; its four limbs ended in sharp claws; its eyes were very small; its mouth was unusually wide; and it had two larger teeth that stretched towards its belly, as well as a scattering of smaller teeth buried within the split between its lips. "Roar!" Wh

Chapter3 Level Up "What in the hell is that!?" Arden let out a scream. Suddenly, he stood up and strengthened his grip on the Lazonion Swift Blade he had been holding. His gaze swept the area around him, looking for any indication that a Direbrinbare might be nearby. Yet, much to Arden's surprise, he didn't see anything besides the vegetation that was all around him. This realization only served to make him more anxious because he was unable to spot a potential enemy who, based on the sound, could be in his immediate location. "Where are you, Direbrinbare? Show yourself!" Arden yelled, but there was no response from anyone. "krrrrrr" "Ahh!" Arden was startled when the croaking sound returned to his ears for a second time. This time around, Arden paid close attention to the origin of the sound, and as a result, he was able to pinpoint where it came from. Arden discovered that the peculiar croaking sound that originated from his stomach came as the biggest surprise to him

Chapter4: Uger and Wolves As Arden and company continued to stride towards the green pillar of light or according to the system, the beacon. Evnor endlessly conversed with Arden, explaining to him how amazing the Astro world was and which place he was currently located in the Evamore island, and the several clans inhabiting the Evamore island. Arden widened his eyes in amazement as soon as he heard of the various races that could be found on just one island in the whole of Astro world. "The Urcs, the Infernal demons, and the Holy falcons, I wonder just how the other races look compared to the Moon Elfs" Arden mumbled inwardly. Just when the group covered two kilometres, the ground beneath their very feet suddenly trembled greatly as if a massive earthquake was occurring. "what the hell is going on!" Arden blurted. "this tremor!, something very big and powerful must be heading our way!" Evnor exclaimed. "Such a powerful presence, I don't think we can contend with this ent

Chapter5: countdown "Roar!" The Alpha wolf barked an order to the remaining wolves to follow it as it took the charge to attack Arden and the girls. Micrio and Althev showed no signs of interfering, to them, it was a great chance for the princess to hone her skills. The moment in the alpha arrived, It hopped towards Arden with maximum speed, it's claws tearing into the air as it rushed towards his face. To it, Arden was most likely the weakest among the group. At the same time, the other two wolves attacked him from different angles. One beared its teeth as it aimed to gnaw on his backneck while the other wolf reached for Arden right shoulder. Evnor and Noiter where preocupied with other wolves and were unable to assist him. The beseech of the wolves left Arden with nowhere to evade. Anybody would have been sent into panic in such a situation but on the contrary, Ardens eyes had no hint of fear. A sly look appeared in his eyes as he focused his attention on the Alpha male,

"young man, were you so anxious because of ranking up" Micrio suddenly said out of nowhere. " I can sense that you're now in Rank four of Celestial Novice" "What talent, to be able to rank up in the midst of danger" Althev mumbled as he glanced at Arden admirably. "really, you actually ascended a rank?" Evnor remarked as she now gazed at Arden with glowing eyes. In the Astro world, Astro mages often had to be in a meditative position in order to ascend into a higher rank, this is due to the fact that Astro mages must entail a clear head to

"just where the hell is this passage leading to?" Arden mumbled as he progressed forth, his heart still pounding heavily and his eyes scanned around wearily. Though he just killed a couple of snakes which made him have more courage to face what lies ahead, his innate fear for snakes couldn't let him be at peace. "shhhhh!" Following a strange sound, a cluster of green gas appeared ahead as Arden continued trudging. "Ahh!" Arden exclaimed softly as he started at the region of the passage in front of him which was complete cliuded by the cluster of green gases. "what the hell, is this a poison miasma, looks like I have hit a dead end" Arden blurted as he halted his advance. A chill ran down his spine as he hastily turned around to retreat.

Chapter8: Contract Arden shivered in fright at the sight of the gigantic snake but at the same time, he wondered if it was the same snake he saw in the mural previously because the giant snake was golden in color and also had a horn in the center of it's head which made it resemble a dragon. Very much like the one in the murals. "Get back" Arden said to Evnor as he pulled her behind him while pointing the serpent suppression pole at it, he had a terrible feeling that this very snake was the poisonous serpent king which the system had warned him about. "sssssss!" The giant serpent's eye condescendingly glared at Arden, it suddenly hissed, a powerful presence which shook the whole underground system surged out of it's body. The mere sight of it's presence nearly made Arden and Evnor into a kneeling position. Both of them gritted their teeth and exerted all the strength and energy in their body to remain standing. Upon seeing that the two ants dared to resist its might, the pois

Arden shivered in excitement as he felt the newly initiated powerful form of energy withing him. According to what he had heard from Evnor, In the rank of Astral servant, astral energy is always being condensed into a purer form whenever the Astral mage upgrade his or her strength. It seems that despite the fact that he was using a system, the same effects also happens in his body when he levels up. At this moment, Arden was no weaker than Sir Micrio.

Chapter 285: planning In the Supreme continent, the sky was bright and the sun hung up in the center of the sky for everyone to see. It light cascading downward, reflecting on the roofs and also a large numerber of people standing on the ground. On the ground, millions of soldiers all dressed in uniform black armour stood at attention without making any move or changing their stances. In front of the millions of soldiers were the mighty general and great general's of the Earth empire who were all standing alongside or behind the respectable officials of the Earth empire. In front of the officials were the two former imperial supervisors, Crimulos and Elienthus. The two stood with their hands couped as they patiently awaited for the battle ship in the sky to land. Up in the sky, the battleship, after reaching it's destination, decreased its speed of advance as it slowly descended, landing on the ground. As the battleship landed on the ground, a wide doorway ope
