The deep vibration did not fade away this time. It continued in low, steady pulses. Thrum. Thrum. Thrum.It was definitely not mechanical. It was not a machine.Landon could feel the powerful heartbeat of the monster right through the thick soles of his combat boots. He could feel it vibrating through the wooden floorboards.Kade quickly stepped over to the window again. He used his strong fingers to pry open a slightly larger gap between the heavy wooden boards. He pressed his face against the wood and peered out over the dark, snowy street."There is absolutely nothing visible out there," Kade reported back. "No soldiers. No tanks. But the air outside feels... incredibly heavy. It feels like the sky is being pulled down to the ground."Claire walked over and stood right beside him. She looked through the crack, too."Just because we cannot see it with our eyes, does not mean it is not moving toward us," Claire whispered.Jin’s voice was tight with rising panic."The magical energy r

The very first missile hit the ground right before the yellow sun came up.BOOM!Thick, ugly smoke tore across the rocky ridge. It looked like a fast-moving river of black fire. Sharp pieces of hot metal sprayed wildly across the quiet valley below. Giant, old trees snapped in half with loud cracking sounds and fell heavily to the dirt. Hundreds of sleeping birds exploded into the dark morning sky. They screamed in pure, blind panic.High up on the ridge, looking down at the valley, stood General Kade Rauth.He watched the destruction with completely calm, empty eyes.His heavy armor gleamed faintly in the early morning light. The armor was mostly pitch black, but it had beautiful, shining streaks of silver and bronze running through it. This was not normal metal. It was god-metal. It was magic metal stolen from the bodies of dead deities. The magic metal was melted and poured right into the seams of his suit.Strange, invisible shields called "null fields" shimmered in the air arou

The rockets carried the glowing relic spheres. They did not aim for the warlord's chest. They aimed for the tiny, weak joints in his golden armor.Smack! Smack! Smack!The spheres hit the warlord and stuck to his armor. They instantly exploded with a sickening, ancient magic. Every single hit created a shimmering crack in the warlord's divine shield.The giant warlord screamed in fury. He swung his molten lava hammer in a massively wide circle, trying to obliterate everything in his path.Rauth simply ducked his head and rolled smoothly off the boulder. He landed safely behind a destroyed, broken brick wall. His armor hummed happily. The null field easily absorbed the leftover heat from the warlord's fiery hammer swing."Time for a direct approach," Rauth whispered, almost speaking to himself.He pressed a button on his metal glove. He activated the powerful relic core hidden inside his gauntlet.Instantly, a bright sphere of solid light exploded out of his glove. It was small at fir

Rauth did not turn around to look at him. He stood tall, his broad shoulders pulled back, his cold eyes still admiring his wall of dead gods."Prepare the army for the next phase of the plan," Rauth commanded smoothly. "We begin our expansion into the northern front tomorrow. Send more troops to reinforce the units that suppress the god-touched rebels. And make absolutely certain that the brand new class of super weapons is deployed on schedule.""Yes, General," the lieutenant said, quickly typing the orders into his tablet.Rauth finally turned fully around to face his command staff.The bright morning sun was fully up now. The beautiful light hit Rauth's black armor. The silver god-metal glinted sharply, promising a very lethal, bloody future. The invisible null fields hummed happily around his body.Every single step Rauth took across the command tent resonated with absolute authority. Every officer in the room felt his immense pressure. It was suffocating.It was absolute control.

The very first Iron Order checkpoint appeared right past the old, rusty river bridge.Landon Ryke saw it clearly from the high, flat rooftop where he, Claire, and Priya were hiding.Down below them, tall soldiers dressed in heavy, pitch-black armor marched in a tight, perfect square. They held their deadly rifles tight against their shoulders, ready to shoot anything that moved. Strange, glowing machines called "null-field emitters" flickered faintly on their broad shoulders. The magic machines bent the morning light around the soldiers, making their bodies look blurry and shimmering, like a hot road in the summer.The busy city street below them was completely empty of normal life. Dozens of cars were just left parked crookedly in the middle of the road with their doors hanging wide open. People had run away in a total panic.A large yellow city bus lay tipped over on its side. All of its windows were shattered into a million tiny pieces of glass. Thick, oily black smoke curled u

Claire crouched down right beside Navarro. She pointed a sharp finger at his paper map."We need to set up deadly choke points right here, here, and here," Claire ordered.Her finger traced three specific intersections on the map where narrow, tight streets suddenly opened up into wide, flat public plazas."The Iron Order soldiers will try to march their big trucks through these wide plazas so they have room to shoot," Claire explained. "But if we hide our fighters in the narrow streets before the plazas, we can trap them in a tight bottleneck. We can turn those streets into bloody kill zones."Navarro nodded his head in agreement."My local militia teams are brave, and they have guns," Navarro said honestly, "but they are not professional soldiers. They are scared. Your Vanguard operatives will need to stay close and help them. We will have to mix our fighting styles. We will use sneaky, guerrilla hit-and-run tactics in the dark alleys. We will use careful, precision sniper strikes t
Chapter 187
A black spider-drone swept low over the street, shooting bright blue scanning beams into the dark alleyway.A squad of Iron Order soldiers confidently marched into the alley right behind the drone. Their null-field shields hummed loudly. Their fancy guns were specially calibrated to detect anyone who had magic god-touched energy in their blood.Navarro’s hidden operatives struck like lightning.They leaned out from second-story windows and fired special electrical bullets down at the soldiers.CRACK! CRACK!The electrical bullets didn't kill the soldiers, but they hit the magical shields and knocked them offline for just two tiny microseconds.But two microseconds was all Navarro's team needed.Before the magic shields could turn back on, the Vanguard fighters unleashed a massive, controlled burst of heavy machine-gun fire.RAT-TAT-TAT-TAT!The flying drone was blown into a hundred burning pieces. The black-armored soldiers were shot down quietly and efficiently before they even knew

The first street they reached was completely empty of normal people. But long before Landon Ryke actually saw the enemy soldiers, he heard the terrifying, low humming noise of their machines.The air all the way down the Milwaukee street looked strange and wavy, like a hot road baking in the summer sun. The magical null-field emitters sitting on the soldiers' broad shoulders were warping the empty air itself. The machines literally bent the early morning sunlight into confusing, distorted patterns to hide the army.Then, the soldiers marched around the corner.They wore thick, heavy black armor. The sharp edges of their suits gleamed faintly with streaks of silver god-metal. Their deadly laser rifles were raised tight against their shoulders, ready to shoot anything that moved. Their invisible magic shields hummed loudly.VMMMMM. Every single step they took was perfectly precise and coldly calculated. They moved like a giant, angry machine."Landon, look at city block nine," Jin’

A block away, Claire pulled the crying children deep into a narrow, smelly alleyway.She narrowly missed being spotted by a black spider-drone scanning from the sky above them.The magical null-field shimmered across the street, twisting the light and totally confusing the drone’s red camera optics.Claire quickly reached down and tapped a small, silver device hooked to her black leather belt.BZZZT.An invisible electrical pulse shot out and completely scrambled the drone's nearby sensors for exactly half a second. But half a second was enough time for her to push the kids into the shadows."Get them through to the safehouse," Landon muttered quietly to himself, hoping Claire was okay.Landon raised his left arm. He fired a tiny, compact EMP grenade directly from a launcher hidden on his wrist.The tiny bomb hit a small drone hovering near the street intersection. POP!The drone wobbled crazily in the air. A shower of white sparks erupted from its metal belly before it fell dead and

Landon timed his physical movements perfectly with each deadly pulse. The Kinetic Echo magically amplified his every reflex. He expertly dodged a laser beam sweeping across the ground, did a front roll over a fallen, rusty pipe, and launched a customized counter-EMP bomb directly at a small automated drone.ZAP! CRASH!Bright sparks flew into the air as the robotic device crashed hard into the brick wall and died."Landon, flank them on the left side," Claire ordered through the radio. "The alley splits up ahead. There is an open upper floor on the abandoned building. You can provide sniper cover for us from high above."Landon didn't hesitate. He jumped high into the air and grabbed onto a collapsed, rusty metal awning. He clung to the sharp edge with his strong fingers and pulled himself up to the second floor.Magic energy waves shimmered all around his body, easily deflecting the small laser blasts trying to hit him. Down below, the Iron Order patrols moved methodically through
