Fractured Code. A Superhero LitRPG (en Inglés) - Zane Emerson

When reality is no longer real, the greatest game on Earth may not be playing by the rules, in the epic third installment of this superhero adventure.

Under the alias Loophole and empowered with the ability to control time, Nate Mercer has come into his own as an Augment. With Phase Two in full swing, he’s united a ragtag team calling themselves the Wildcard Assembly. He even has a Guy in the Chair managing comms, tracking enemies, and acting as strategic advisor while Loophole fights Miscreants intent on destroying New York City.

If only the next phase of Ascension were just about saving the city like a normal superhero would. But hordes of robotic monstrosities have been loosed across the nation, a vengeful Augment is sowing chaos and dogging Loophole with a personal vendetta, and a mysterious architect has a grand design to tear the whole system down. Not to mention the original creator of the game has secrets that could unravel everything.

In a world in which fate is tied to a leaderboard and reality—blurring ever more with each new challenge—runs on video game logic, Loophole is forced into an escalating, near-impossible battle against lunatics with god complexes, mad scientists, and rogue AIs. The only way to win is to break the game itself, but that would unleash a threat Loophole isn’t prepared for. And it’s likely no amount of leveling up will be enough to save everybody . . .
