Secrets of Starlia (LitRPG)
Featured on @ScienceFiction |
Josiah Li lives in a flooded world, where global warming has taken its toll and technology is intertwined in every aspect of daily life. To pass the time in between virtual classes, he finally takes the leap to sign up for a popular game, Starlia. He chooses the least popular class, a bard--good for providing support and crowd control. Josiah quickly rises to fame when he teams up with Starlia's number one player, Nathan Lum--who's totally handsome and charming, by the way. Josiah joins Nathan's guild, and from there he's introduced to the game's royalty.
Turns out, Josiah is pretty good at gaming. So much so that he's invited by the game's company to fly out to their headquarters to meet Nathan and a few other guild members. The company is quick to admit that the game world is harboring many secrets, including a code that's key to building a weathering machine to save Josiah's broken world. Josiah and his guild sets out on a quest, which includes defeating multiple strong bosses to reveal the code.
As the flooding only worsens, Josiah and his guild mates begin a race against time, betting all of their hopes on unlocking the weathering machine. As their rivals race for the code for hopes of fame and wealth, Josiah risks his all for the game's secrets.
