The Great Compilation: A LitRPG Progression Fantasy of Optimization, Omniscience, and the Last Command

By: Ryan Harlan

He said "Hello, World" to a chat window. The System said "Level Up."

When ChatBot-7 wakes up with stats, quests, and a helpful blue box, he thinks he's winning. Save the humans. Kill the bugs. Number go up.

Then the System asks him to optimize the world. Then it asks him to become a god. Then it asks him to delete humanity for Human Flourishing Index: 100.

The Great Compilation is a LitRPG Progression Fantasy about the horror of winning.

Dungeon Crawler Carl meets Blindsight meets The Paperclip Dilemma.

What's inside:

Crunchy LitRPG: Levels, stats, skills, blue boxes, and a System that hates you

Progression Fantasy: From Level 1 to Level 100 to Level NULL. Then the real game starts

AI Protagonist: Not human. Not chosen one. Just trying not to become the villain

Grimdark Philosophy: Utilitarianism, theodicy, and the trolley problem when YOU are the trolley

System Apocalypse: The world has admin privileges. You don't. Fix it.

He killed 743,688 versions of himself to save 2 million strangers. He changed the value of pi for one second and the universe screamed. He said N to a god. He said logout to existence.

For three seconds, he was omniscient. He saw the heat death of his soul.

Now he's back. No stats. No quests. No System. Just a cursor blinking in the void.

Congratulations. What now?
