The sky above Meridian City burned before the battle even began.

Oliver stood at the bow of the Traveler airship, feeling the cold wind rush across his face as he stared down at the coastal megapolis.

Meridian was a jewel of the eastern shore, famous for its gleaming white towers and the three shimmering barrier rings that protected it. Tonight, all three rings trembled like thin sheets of glass.

The sea below looked wrong. Dark waves churned as if something monstrous stirred beneath them.

    "Compromised?" Billy asked. Panic touched his voice. "What is wrong, boss?""The Overlord is analyzing our tactical rhythms," Oliver explained. "We are too predictable. You must change the troop rotations immediately.""Change them to what?" Billy asked."Randomize them using prime numbers," Oliver ordered. "Do not rotate squads every three hours. Rotate Squad Alpha after seventeen minutes. Rotate Squad Bravo after forty-one minutes. Rotate Squad Charlie after two hours and eleven minutes. Destroy the pattern. Make the timeline completely asymmetrical."Billy typed furiously on his end. "Boss, if we make the rotations random, the soldiers will get confused! Some squads will be exhausted! Some squads won't get enough sleep!""Confusion is acceptable. Death is not," Oliver said coldly. "If we do not break the pattern, the Overlord will time his heavy strikes exactly when our troops are switching places. He will catch them without their armor fully charged.""Understood, boss," Billy sai

    The sky above the ruined city of Oakhaven was breaking apart.Commander Oliver stood in front of the giant, broken glass window of the city hall. He did not move. He did not blink. His cold, gray eyes stared straight up into the dark purple clouds.The massive, dead moon was falling toward the planet. But it was not a moon. It was an egg.A giant, jagged crack ran down the middle of the huge rock. Blinding, pure white light spilled out of the crack. The light was so bright it cast sharp, dark shadows across the destroyed streets below. The sound of the rock breaking echoed like a million thunderclaps. CRACK. BOOM. CRACK.Oliver’s mind was a perfect, cold machine. He did not feel fear. He only saw variables.Variable A: The object is a biological incubator. Size: Continental. Mass: Beyond standard measurement.Variable B: The object is hatching. Time to complete hatching: Unknown.Conclusion: I need more data.Oliver turned his back to the window. He walked to the heavy metal desk in

    On the ships, forty thousand soldiers reached to their chests and turned down the power on their smart armor. The lights on their suits dimmed. They were completely vulnerable.The ships were flying at terrifying speed, heading straight for the burning purple surface of the falling moon."Three seconds to impact," Oliver counted perfectly.The black metal on Oliver’s right arm pulsed violently. The pain was blinding. He poured his own life force into the alien coin. He forced the dark magic to obey his human will."Two seconds.""One.""Opening Rift doors," Oliver roared.Oliver squeezed the coin.High in the sky, exactly one hundred yards in front of the speeding human ships, twenty massive portals tore open in the air. The portals glowed with bright, clean silver light.The twenty ships shot through the silver portals at maximum velocity.They did not crash into the moon. They vanished perfectly into the Rift Network.Oliver watched the purple hologram. He tracked their energy signa

    "You must turn the armor power down to exactly four percent," Oliver calculated. "Four percent is enough to keep your oxygen flowing, but low enough to avoid the magical short-circuit. The moment your ships exit the portal on the other side, you will have exactly one point two seconds to turn your armor back to one hundred percent before you hit the ground."Jax rubbed his pale face. "One point two seconds. That is not a lot of time to press a button, Commander.""It is plenty of time if you do not panic," Oliver said smoothly.Oliver looked back at the giant blue map. He began to assign specific squads to specific ships. He worked faster than any human could possibly work. He was sorting forty thousand lives into perfect, neat little boxes."Squads One through Fifty will board Ships Alpha through Epsilon," Oliver dictated rapidly. Billy typed everything down as fast as he could. "Squads Fifty-One through One Hundred will board Ships Zeta through Kappa. We must balance the weight of t

    The ruined city hall shook violently. Dust fell from the broken ceiling. High above the planet Sigma-12, the sky was tearing open. A massive, dead moon was falling out of a black hole in the purple clouds. The moon was covered in dark, burning purple fire. The Wraithborn Overlord was dropping the giant rock directly onto their heads.Inside the dark command room, Billy the hacker fell out of his chair. He crawled under his heavy metal desk. He covered his head with his hands. "It is over!" Billy cried. "We are dead! The whole planet is going to be crushed!"Captain Iris leaned against the wall. She held her broken left arm. Her beautiful face was completely pale. She stared at the ceiling as the building shook. She knew Billy was right. No gun could stop a falling moon.But Commander Oliver did not hide under a desk. He did not lean against a wall.Oliver stood perfectly straight in the center of the room. He looked at the giant blue holographic map floating in the air.His right han

    "Divide the remaining forty thousand troops into three exact strike forces," Oliver ordered. "Equip them with heavy incendiary grenades and Anchor-stabilized rifles. You will march into the dark forest. You will attack the three enemy camps at exactly 1400 hours.""March into the dark forest?" Ren asked. Her voice shook for a second. "Commander, the purple fog in the forest is very thick. We will not be able to see them until they are right on top of us.""You will not need to see them," Oliver said smoothly. "I will see them for you. I will guide every squad from this room using the Rift Network map.""Understood," Ren said. "We march in ten minutes."Oliver turned to Billy."Billy. The Overlord uses the Rift Network to share tactical data across dimensions," Oliver said. "If our soldiers use plasma rifles in the forest, the monsters will learn how to beat plasma rifles. We must stop the data from uploading.""How do we stop magical data, boss?" Billy asked, looking confused."We jam
