Thiago didn't waste another second."Adrian, stay here."Adrian shook his head."I'm coming.""No."Thiago looked at him seriously."Find out whether the temporal loop is actually dead. If Marcus is still connected to the system, destroying him won't solve anything."Adrian hesitated before nodding.Selene stepped forward."I'm coming with you."Thiago looked at her."You may be exactly what Marcus wants.""Then he can have what he wants."Selene's voice was firm."But he won't get it."Thiago nodded."Let's go."Evren immediately followed.Thiago stopped him."You stay with Adrian."Evren shook his head."I remember the fifth cycle."Thiago stared at him."What's in the fifth cycle?"Evren's face became serious."Marcus wins."Thiago's expression hardened."How?""He reaches the villa."Thiago went still.Evren continued."He takes the ring."Selene's face changed."And then?"Evren looked directly at Thiago."He kills you."Silence filled the chamber.Thiago slowly smiled."Not this

The first wave of water crashed through the underground tunnels.The entire facility shook.Water rushed through the lower corridors, carrying debris with it.09:41Thiago stared at the countdown.The Origin Device was preparing to reset everything.But now he remembered the truth.There had never been a successful reset.Every attempt had only pushed the apocalypse into another timeline.And every time Thiago died, the ring dragged him backward, carrying fragments of the failed world with him.This time, he intended to stop it."Adrian!" Thiago shouted.Adrian rushed toward him."What?""Can you shut down the external power?""I can try.""Don't try. Do it."Adrian ran toward the control panel.Selene looked at Thiago."If you destroy the Origin Device, the temporal field could collapse.""That's the plan.""You don't know what will happen to us.""No."Thiago looked at her."But I know what happens if we let Marcus finish."Marcus was still struggling with Leandro."You fool!" Marcu

White light swallowed everything.For several seconds, Thiago could see nothing.He couldn't hear Adrian.He couldn't hear Selene.He couldn't hear Leandro.He couldn't even hear his own breathing.Then a voice emerged from the silence."Do you remember now?"Thiago opened his eyes.He was standing in a laboratory.Not the underground chamber.Not the hotel.A laboratory from another time.The walls were white.Machines filled the room.Several scientists moved hurriedly around him.And beside him stood Selene.But she looked younger.Much younger.Thiago stared at his hands.They were clean.No scars.No blood.He turned toward the man who had appeared behind Leandro.Now Thiago remembered him."Dr. Marcus Hale."The man smiled."Finally."Thiago's eyes became cold."You died."Marcus laughed."I did.""You were killed during the first collapse.""Correct.""Then how are you here?"Marcus stepped closer."Because death isn't permanent when you've spent decades studying how to escape
Chapter 50
The words remained on the screen.THREE REQUIRED FOR RESET.THIAGO. SELENE. EVREN.BEGINNING COLLECTION.Selene's face went pale."No."Thiago looked at her."You know what that means.""I do.""Then tell me."Selene stared at the screen."The facility has activated its collection protocol."Adrian's voice came through the device."That's impossible. The collection system was destroyed."Selene shook her head."Not destroyed. Buried."A deep mechanical sound echoed through the underground passage.Something had awakened beneath Langport.Thiago looked toward the darkness ahead."How long before it reaches us?"Selene checked the device."Less than thirty minutes.""Then we have thirty minutes.""Thiago, you don't understand. Once the collection begins, the facility won't stop because someone leaves.""What will it do?""It will pull every compatible subject toward the Origin chamber."Thiago's eyes narrowed."Pull?"Selene nodded."The system can manipulate the temporal field around a

The entire hotel shook violently.Glass shattered somewhere below.People screamed as the building trembled beneath their feet.Thiago stared at the man standing before him.Older.Scarred.And carrying the same cold eyes he had seen in the memory."The fifth cycle?" Thiago asked.The older version of himself nodded."You weren't supposed to meet me yet.""Then why are you here?""Because you changed the sequence."Another tremor rocked the building.Adrian grabbed the wall."We have to get out."Older Thiago looked at him."Adrian."Adrian froze."You know me?""I know every version of you."Adrian's face went pale.Older Thiago turned back to Thiago."You still don't understand what the ring is."Thiago's hand tightened around the fake ring."Then explain it.""The ring isn't protecting you from the apocalypse.""What is it doing?""Protecting the apocalypse from you."Thiago's eyes narrowed."What does that mean?"The older man looked almost tired."It means every time you die, the
Chapter 48
Thiago stared at the message for several seconds.WE HAVE SOMETHING THAT BELONGS TO YOU.Then the second message.DON'T BRING YOUR RING.He almost laughed.Whoever had sent the messages knew about the ring.That alone changed everything.For the first time in a long while, Thiago felt a genuine sense of danger.Not fear.Danger.There was a difference.Fear made people hesitate.Danger made Thiago think faster.He started the car and drove toward the hotel.But he did not drive directly there.Instead, he made three unnecessary turns, changed roads twice, and stopped at a quiet roadside location.He looked at the ring."You're coming with me."The ring remained silent.Thiago knew better than to trust the people waiting for him.If they wanted the ring, they would eventually come looking for it.He opened his spatial storage and placed a useless metal ring inside it.Then he put the fake ring on his finger.His real ring remained concealed.He continued toward the hotel.Meanwhile, on
