System Strain Book 3: War for Earth

For six months, Liam and the survivors of the Pineview Fortress have bled, fought, and leveled in the shadows of a broken world. They thought the worst was behind them, that the "System" had finished its cruel introduction. They were wrong. As the sky opens and the massive Landing Citadels of the interstellar guilds descend, Earth is no longer a survival map, it is a resource to be harvested by the galaxy’s oldest and most ruthless factions. But the invaders made a catastrophic mistake. They expected to find a primitive world of low-level assets. Instead, they’ve landed in the backyard of a Level 72 Mythic Draconic Void-Winged Overlord. Backed by the elite Silver Moss elven allies and a battle-hardened Vanguard, Liam and his family are no longer just survivors, they are the pinnacle of planetary power. As the "Big Factions" attempt to audit and enslave humanity, Liam refuses to follow the rules. By mastering the new fluidity of mana and skills at level 70, he begins to treat the System’s rigid skills as mere guidelines, unraveling alien mana-structures and dismantling "Elite" commanders with terrifying efficiency. From the Siege of Pineview to the global hunt for the world's final "Vaulted" masters, Book 3 is an all-out war for planetary sovereignty. Liam is no longer playing the System’s game. He is rewriting the math of the universe, proving that while the stars may be old, the monsters of Earth are much, much hungrier. The Audit is over. The harvest has begun. And the Overlord is just getting started.
