In a post-apocalyptic Earth, devastated by an invasion of Elder Gods through Dimensional Rifts seventy years ago, humanity is on the brink of extinction. The invasion caused massive land shifts, destroying continents and contaminating the atmosphere with radiation and pestilence. Survivors now live in domed cities called Fortresses, protected from the horrors outside. 

To fight back, humans developed the Knight Program, harnessing a mysterious energy source that emerged during the First Invasion. This program produces super-powered soldiers, known as Knights, who are humanity's last hope against the Elder Gods.

––STONE GOALS––

50 Golden Tickets = One extra chapter
100 power stones = One Extra Chapter
100 Golden Tickets = Two Extra Chapters 
200 power stones = Two Extra Chapters 

––STONE GOALS––

NOTE, 50 Golden tickets are also equivalent to 100 powerstones. but if there's 50 tickets, and 100 powerstones at the same time, then there'll be two extra chapters regardless to keep up with the goal. So for every 50 tickets or 100 powerstones, there'll be one extra chapter. For now.  this may be revised later in the future as things progress.

RED: Swordsman in the Apocalypse

Connor was a longtime childhood friend of Lyra's. As orphans, the two of them grew up together at the orphanage in the Downtown district, and their relationship endured even after they left.

At the age of 16, unadopted children were eligible to leave the orphanage and start making a life for themselves. They would still receive a certain level of support from the home, but it wasn't substantial and was more of a nominal backing.

Lyra set out to become a Hunter, while Connor, already a tech enthusiast, sought to explore and advance his career. He was something the current era called a Crafter, or Forger—at least, on the surface.

But the truth was, Connor's skills lay in versatility.

Biochemistry? Haha, are you even trying?
