Intergalactic conquest with an AI
Rex was just another slave in the corporate machine, a faceless office worker under the shadow of one of the galaxy's powerful megacorps. His life was predictable and dull, an endless cycle of meaningless reports and fluorescent-lit monotony. That was, until that day....
When a new world was discovered on the outskirts of the galaxy, Rex, like countless other low-ranking employees, found himself dragged into a contract clause he’d barely skimmed years ago.
The megacorp ordered him and his coworkers to pack their lives into a transport pod and leave for the unexplored planet. Their mission? Establish a colony. Mine resources. Make the company richer.
There was no choice, refusing meant ruin.
At first, everything seemed manageable. The days were grueling, the nights cold, but progress was steady. The colony was coming to life. Until the excavation team struck something.
No one knew what it was at first, a buried hive, a forgotten ecosystem, or something ancient and dangerous. Whatever it was, it unleashed hell. Swarms of enormous, chittering creatures erupted from the ground, their jagged bodies blotting out the sky.
The colony fell into chaos. Screams echoed through the air as the bugs tore through everything in their path, walls, machines, and people.
Rex barely survived. Bloodied, broken, and pinned beneath the rubble, he should have died there. But in the pitch-black silence of his fading consciousness, a voice spoke to him. Cold. Mechanical. Otherworldly.
"Do you wish to live?"
When Rex woke, he was no longer the man he’d been. His body was no longer human flesh and bone but something far more alien.
His skin shimmered with living metal, his mind infused with the power of Cleo, a mysterious AI from a long-extinct, robotic race known as the Kaelzars. Cleo’s presence pulsed through his thoughts, guiding him and transforming him. He wasn’t just alive. He was reborn.
But survival came at a price. Rex was no longer a pawn of the megacorp; he was something more dangerous, something they couldn’t control. As Cleo’s intentions began to reveal themselves, Rex found himself standing on the precipice of war, not just with the bugs but with forces far greater than he could have imagined.
This was the beginning of a journey through blood-soaked battlefields and treacherous alliances. Along the way, Rex would encounter allies, brilliant, flawed, and unpredictable, and enemies whose ambitions were as sharp as their blades.
These weren’t disposable foes, easily crushed by an overpowered hero. They were cunning, relentless, and human in the most terrifying ways.
But then again, in war, who can truly be called a villain?

Hello everyone, I will leave this humble (cuf cuf) review here for those that want to ask something before starting to read my novel so you can save yourself some unpleasant surprises that you dont want to read, I will try to answer in the most brevity possible. Having said that, I will say that this novel won't have [NTR], [RP], [INC], or any other heavy topics of fetishes.
I've read to chapter 56 so far and gotta say books like this are why I love reading, AI's, funny but strong mcs, zerg like aliens and wars. doing a great job with the story keeping it fun and interesting while still building the world and keeping the characters progressing. I hope to be able to keep reading til the end. P.S. looking forward to when it's even more crazy wars.
Story is quite enjoyable so far (chapter 75), but the actions MC takes seem incredibly stupid. Like he needs money, so let’s start fighting as foot soldiers in a war waged by a megacorp. The same megacorp that already put a bounty on my head and tried to kill me previously. And starts building an entire underground smuggling hub right where they raided a cover secret scheme of said megacorp. Meanwhile he gets paid 50000 credit for a mission where he is supposed to have slain an entire bandit den. Yet having dinner in a restaurant cost 10000 credits? Also it would be nice if there was like an explanation at all of power ranking or even just a power system. Also who even owns and rules these six megacorps? What race are they? Is there even a dominant race? Who are the opposing races? Why is there so little world building when there’s an entire galaxy conquest planned…. The story truly is enjoyable but there’s a lot to be improved in other aspects. Like consistency, world building, character IQ (even if you wanna call the main character stupid, is Cleo also just as dumb to go along and let him make stupid decision after stupid decision? And don’t even get me started on how it’s possible for the megacorp to have such lackluster IQ)
I love this story and would like to encourage the author to continue I have seen tons of good novels and authors quit half way pleas do not quit and continue this master piece
Just discovered this series. I'm really liking the story so far. Please keep up the great work! It's a nice breath of fresh air in a field filled with typical fantasy stories.
Honestly Sci-fi is by far one of my favorite genres to begin with and this is just one of the ones where I just enjoy it. Usually, I do long drawn-out fancy reviews for most of the things I read (I am a reviewer technically), However I always enjoy just reading something instead of having to review it. I would argue I enjoy this one alongside "The Hivemind is Conquering for me" and "I became an evolving space monster" I just enjoy this novel instead of having to review them so thank you author. I am excited to see where the story goes and all your plans for it!! Have a wonderful rest of you day
uma história ótima para passar tempo ......
I have enjoyed the story, the details of the fights, and the personalities of the characters.I have liked the writing, it's quite engaging. I hope to keep reading this story, there are quite a few chapters I need to catch up on.[img=Feeling it]
truly love this story the only problem that the Mc is 2.5 meters tall which 8 foot he is too tall. it's one thing if he can manipulate his height but being that big just make him a easy target period
R18 Smut and Harem, I don't even get it what the fk Carlos doing at this stage of story with this kind of tag, at this point Carlos might even consider a fvcking member of MC harem.
