The cave was completely black. It was absolute, pitch-black darkness. There was no light from the flashlights. There was no glow from the alien coin. Even the purple veins in Commander Oliver’s black metal arm were totally dark.All electrical and magical energy had been drained from the room.Oliver could not see. He could not use his Echo Sense. He was completely blind.Right above his head, a giant mouth opened. He could hear the wet, sticky sound of thick lips parting. He could smell the terrible odor of rotten meat and old blood. He felt a hot, heavy breath blow down onto his face. The Energy-Vampire was ready to bite his head off.A normal man would scream. A normal man would freeze in terror.Oliver did not scream. He did not freeze. He used math.Variable A: I cannot see the enemy. Therefore, I must use my other senses.Variable B: The hot breath hit my face from an angle of exactly forty-five degrees above me.Variable C: The sound of the jaws opening took zero point one se

Oliver turned to Lira. "Lira. The Overlord’s army possesses highly specialized units. Are there any Wraithborn monsters in this sector that store massive amounts of raw, electrical Rift energy?"The ghost’s blind white eyes widened. She realized what he was planning."Yes," Lira whispered in fear. "There are creatures called Volt-Hounds. They are massive, fast, wolf-like beasts. They feed on raw lightning. They carry thousands of volts in their spines. The Overlord uses them as living batteries for his war machines.""Perfect," Oliver said. His voice was cold and sharp. "We will find a Volt-Hound. We will trap it. We will kill it. And we will extract its spine.""Hunt a lightning monster with no ammo and no water?" Vega asked in disbelief."We will use precision," Oliver stated.Oliver stood up. He picked up his silent sniper rifle with his left hand."The resource management phase is complete," Oliver ordered. "Everyone, stand up. Grab your gear. We are leaving the safe room."The ti

"Hunger keeps the senses sharp," Oliver said perfectly. "A hungry animal hunts better than a full animal. We will divide one single protein bar into four equal pieces. We will eat the pieces exactly ten minutes before we engage the enemy. We will use the sudden sugar spike for combat energy. The other two bars are reserved for absolute emergencies."Rax rumbled a deep laugh. "You treat your own people like machines, Commander. You measure their blood like oil.""Machines do not make mistakes. Humans do," Oliver replied coldly. "I will not let a human mistake end the universe."Oliver turned his cold gray eye and his burning red eye to the weapons on the floor."We have two plasma batteries," Oliver noted. "General Vega. Your sniper rifle is our only long-range asset. But energy weapons drain battery rapidly. From this moment on, you are forbidden to miss."Vega stared at him. "Forbidden to miss? Commander, it is dark out there. They move fast.""I am aware of their speed," Oliver said

The red light flashed in the pure white room. WEE-WOO! WEE-WOO!The giant robot made of hard white light and metal charged forward. It raised its two glowing energy swords. It was designed to kill monsters. And Commander Oliver’s right arm was made of monster metal.Oliver was stuck. His left hand was glued to the glowing white glass table. His black metal right arm was smoking and losing power. He could not move."General Vega!" Oliver’s voice echoed cleanly through the flashing red room. "Do not shoot the robot! Shoot the table!"General Vega did not hesitate for a single microsecond. She trusted Oliver with her life. She raised her heavy sniper rifle. She aimed at the glowing white glass table right next to Oliver’s trapped human hand. She pulled the trigger.BANG! The heavy metal bullet flew across the room. It hit the white glass exactly in the center.CRASH! The ancient alien table exploded. Millions of tiny, glowing white glass pieces flew into the air like bright snow.The mag

They walked for twenty minutes. The path was perfectly straight. There were no traps. There were no monsters. The Wraithborn could not survive the pure light.Finally, the tunnel opened up into a large, circular room.The room was a masterpiece of ancient technology. In the center of the room sat a large, round table made of glowing white glass. Above the table, a complex, three-dimensional hologram of the entire planet slowly turned in the air."A tactical command center," Oliver said smoothly. He walked up to the glowing white glass table.There was no keyboard. There were no buttons."How do we turn it on, boss?" Billy asked. He pulled his cracked tablet from his backpack. "There is nowhere to plug in my cables.""You do not use cables," Lira said softly. "You use your mind. Place your hand on the glass, Oliver."Oliver looked at his two hands. His left hand was human flesh. His right hand was dark, evil metal. He raised his human left hand. He placed his bare palm flat against the

"What?" Foreman Cole panicked. He held his young son tightly. "You are leaving us behind?! In the dark?!""I am securing your survival," Oliver said cleanly. "If we move the entire group through the hidden passage, we risk overextension. We will create too much noise. The Overlord will find the passage and collapse the ceiling on all of us."Oliver pointed to a small, defensible corner of the current tunnel."We will create a partial occupation," Oliver explained. "Sergeant Miller. You, Private Davis, Smith, Jones, Cole, and Vance will stay here. You will guard the civilians. You will guard the unconscious bodies of Captain Iris and Captain Jax. You will set up the heavy plasma machine gun behind those large rocks. You will maintain absolute silence.""We will hold the line, Commander," Miller said firmly. He did not question the math. If Oliver said it was the safest way, it was the safest way.Oliver turned to General Vega, Billy the hacker, and Rax the giant mutant."You three are
