Jamie was shocked when he heard the transmitted thoughts of that cephalopod creature. He had just held up another wave of one hundred electric eels, ripping their bodies into shreds that floated away from him when he turned around to stare at the back of his personal assistant in absolute shock.The nine-mega-star level of evolution? Isn't that the highest level of evolution any human being has and can reach? Isn't that the level of those AS99 Supreme Lords? Jamie turned his gaze towards Stella in the distance. With his evolved sight and the additional aid from the holographic screen within the nanotech suit, he was able to see his General clearly within the dark space of the underwater. The young woman was in another isolated space within this larger isolated space that Tom created. There was shock in her demeanor as well. As it turns out, she was also caught off guard by that revelation.Huh? It turns out there were some major revelations about Tom that not even General Stella kn

“You can swim as fast and as far as you want, but as long as you're within my spatial isolation, you won't be living alive. You're in my world, my domain.” Just as Tom Yates had spoken, he wasn't bluffing at all. It seems the great spatial isolation cage he created was already premeditated, like he knew how this entire battle would play out, and he was merely playing along until the inevitable happened.The cephalopod creature also couldn't deny what Tom had just pointed out. No matter how far and fast it swam, it was touching up against the barriers he couldn't bypass.Frustrated, it turned around in its cephalopod form, with no human upper torso to give it that humanoid disguise anymore. It pointed at Yon with one of its unnaturally many tentacles. [You tricked me! You tricked everyone in here! You had everything planned out, and yet, you still let your own people die in a bridal fight with so many secondary incarnations!”It chuckled out loud, transmitting its words as wide as it

With the primary incarnation dealt with, the group of three returned to the surface of the ocean to find Chief Cassandra and her soldiers resting up near the small sandy area that was encapsulated within Tom's isolated space.The group of San Francisco branch soldiers was exhausted, and most of their nanotech suits had run out of battery. They would need to head back to the base to recharge, but none of them can leave the enclosed space, not without Tom Yates opening up the spatial isolation cage, the same way they had gotten in.The San Francisco soldiers ended up losing fewer than ten soldiers to this intense battle. The secondary incarnations might be weaker than the primary one but they were definitely strong enough to give even a two-star general like Chief Cassandra Jones a run for her money.Plus, these secondary incarnations had the numbers on their side. But if they knew how many secondary incarnations Tom and his mysterious group ended up facing deep underwater, their heart

After everyone stepped as far away from the waters as they could, with the large team of AS99 soldiers and Chief Cassandra watching from a distance, there were only Jamie and Stella left with Tom Yates.The group of three who came to this city together were having a last-minute chat before they watched the high-level soldier jump into that inter-dimensional crack, to disempower that second-order S-Rank dark entity from ever being able to use it again.Tom Yates gazed at his fellow subordinate and his young master as he spoke. “I know that completely sealing that crack would only cause a blockage that may affect other inter-dimensional cracks across the globe. So I only intend to block the higher flow of negative energy from any and all S-Rank dark entities from ever being able to use it again.”Stella nodded her head. “So once this plan of yours is successful, there will be practically no chance of that S-Rank dark entity, or any other ones for that matter, to be able to send any inc

For about an hour, nothing happened….until a loud explosion that rippled chaotically through space, sent Jamie and everyone flying backwards intensely.What had just happened? The valet had sent Jamie flying a couple of feet into the air. Though, just as every AS99 soldier in that site, they all managed to properly land on their feet without the slightest injury.Everyone was focused on the inter-dimensional crack, though, as that was where the forceful blast came from. Jamie shook his head, speaking to his general only through their private communication link. “What's going on?! Why was there such a blast?!”Stella glanced at her young master. “I….I don't know, Sir! It's highly probable that the blast is a result of the ongoing battle between Sir Tom and that second-order S-Rank dark entity!”One of the lieutenants near Chief Cassandra Jones stared at the inter-dimensional crack with wide eyes. “Fuck! What could be going on in there! Chief, we should have requested live footage!
