The New World

Monsoon117

Trapped in a Dungeon. There's only one way out. Kill or be killed. An AI calling itself Schema has assimilated Earth into its System. As a consequence, everyone gained access to status screens, power-ups, and skills. This AI turned these concepts from fiction to fact. Cracks in our dimensional fabric have unleashed terrifying beasts from dark, abyssal places. Schema organizes these cracks into dungeons, giving the native species of the planet a chance to fight back. Daniel finds himself stuck in one of these dungeons. It's time to break free, by any means necessary.

Progression: LitRPG System Apocalypse. Schema System assimilation: status screens, explicit levels, power-ups, skills, and class-like progression. Dungeons as structured advancement arenas where killing monsters grants experience, loot, and System rewards. Dungeon tiers and dimensional cracks provide escalating difficulty. MC progresses via level-ups, skill acquisition/upgrades, and dungeon clears; power scaling is quantified and central to survival.
