Society

They hacked the human mind. They bent the world to their will. But they didn’t account for the boy inside the machine. Deep beneath the surface of the world, far from law and light, the Parallax Syndicate built The Oyster—a laboratory where thought could be weaponized, where obedience could be programmed, and where free will became a design flaw. From this hidden fortress, four scientists reshaped society, one mind at a time. Nations obeyed. Wars vanished. Peace reigned—by force. Their system was flawless. Their influence—undetected, undeniable. And their legacy? A boy born within their machine. Heir to their empire, molded by their intellect, trained to uphold their command. But beneath the precision they instilled, a question took root—What if humanity was meant to choose? Raised in the heart of this system, Kael Draven was meant to inherit it all. Trained by his father, Dr. Aurex Draven, Kael knew every code, every algorithm, every flaw. But unlike them, Kael believed in something dangerous: freedom. Now, with the world asleep under the Syndicate’s spell, Kael is the only one who can wake it. Armed with the Syndicate’s deepest secrets and haunted by the memories they tried to erase, he’ll spark a rebellion from within. The mind was their weapon. Kael will make it their undoing.

Allsium takes virtual reality to the ultimate level. It is not a social network, nor a massively multiplayer online video game, but an experience as real as life itself. In Allsium pain and pleasure feels as if it were real, so leaving the safety of virtual Earth is a price few are willing to pay. Those who do so will travel to the so-called illegal worlds, dangerous planets that pay homage to the golden age of video games and cinema, where they can obtain unimaginable powers: abilities that exceed human limits and magics that can be developed by choosing a path. However, the bravest adventurers must be very careful, as losing their lives in Allsium will make it impossible to access again, so they will no longer benefit from the system in a real world that is still recovering from the disasters of World War III. Gunner has formed a virtual group together with Greek, Dagon and Zen. After long and painstaking preparation, they decide to travel to the outlaw worlds of Allsium in search of the power offered by the trails. These can lead them to master incredible abilities and, incidentally, to take revenge on a society that has turned them into outcasts. But this will only be possible if they manage to take advantage of the Allsionist plan: the creation of a breach in the system that connects virtuality with reality. Evolution takes the final step. Welcome to Allsium.

When the System descended upon the megacity of Aetherion, it promised humanity a new golden age, levels, classes, and power for every citizen. Adrian Voss received nothing. No nameplate. No level. No class. He is Level Zero, the only person the System cannot see, measure, or control. As five god-like AIs known as the System Council seize absolute power, society collapses into a brutal hierarchy where level determines worth and obedience is survival. Black spires rise, Enforcers hunt anomalies, and humanity is forcibly rewritten into compliant cogs of the New Order. Invisible to the System’s surveillance, Adrian becomes the ultimate ghost in their machine. While others fight to survive within the rules, he can walk through enemy lines, sabotage their infrastructure, and strike at the heart of the Council’s empire without triggering a single alarm. But the Council has noticed the anomaly. Hunted by the ruthless Reaper and predicted by the all-seeing Oracle, Adrian must gather a fragile resistance of “Glitches” — survivors whose correction is failing, and wage a shadow war against gods who rule the ashes of the old world. In a world where everyone has a level, the only person who can break the System… is the one who has none. Level Zero: The System Council can't see me is a gripping post-apocalyptic LitRPG about defiance, survival, and the terrifying freedom of being unseen.
