Chapter 546
In the center of the echo, giant Wraithborn Goliaths were standing inside large, clear tubes of green liquid. Strange, tall figures in golden robes were typing on floating keyboards. They were putting armor on the monsters. They were fusing thick metal plates to the monsters' smoky bodies."This is an old Wraithborn creation facility," Oliver analyzed. "The King did not invent the armored Goliaths. He found them here. He woke them up."Oliver watched the golden figures work. He noticed something very important.When the golden figures attached the thick tank armor to the monsters, they left a small gap right behind the knee. It was the only place where the armor did not cover the smoke. If the armor covered the knee, the monster could not walk."Weak point identified," Oliver said softly. "Behind the knee joint."Suddenly, the alien coin in his pocket beat very fast. Thump-thump-thump!Oliver instantly pulled his hand off the wall. The echo vanished.He was back in the dark, empty cir

The blinding light filled the massive underground city.Commander Oliver’s helmet visor instantly turned pitch black to protect his eyes. The light from the King’s golden box was too bright. It was not normal light. It felt heavy. It felt like a physical wave of pure heat crashing against Oliver’s armor.Oliver did not panic. He stood perfectly still on the high metal balcony. He counted the seconds in his head.One. Two. Three. Four.On the fifth second, the heat stopped. The heavy feeling vanished."Visor reset," Oliver commanded softly.The black screen of his helmet slowly turned clear again. His night vision turned on, painting the giant, ancient room in glowing green.The room was empty.The Wraithborn King was gone. The golden box was gone. The circular platform of purple glass in the center of the room was cracked and broken.Oliver lowered his heavy plasma rifle. He checked his wrist computer."Oxygen reserves: Eighty-two minutes," Oliver whispered to himself. He needed to h

Oliver did not need a map. He used his plasma rifle. He did not shoot the rifle. He used the red targeting laser on the barrel of the gun. He pointed the laser down the long, dark caves. He measured exactly how long it took for the laser light to bounce back to his visor. He was using the laser like a radar."Right tunnel ends in a dead wall forty feet ahead," Oliver whispered, doing the math in his head. "Left tunnel drops into a deep hole twenty feet ahead. Center tunnel curves downward. The center path is open."He walked down the center path.The air grew hotter. It grew wetter. Water dripped from the ceiling. Drip. Plop. Drip.Suddenly, Oliver stopped.He did not hear a sound. He felt a vibration in his boots.He turned off his red light. He stood in total, absolute darkness. He held his breath.Slither. Slither. Slither.Something was moving in the dark ahead of him. It sounded like a massive, wet body dragging itself across the sharp rocks.Oliver's visor had a thermal camera.

Tark swung the heavy metal box off his back. He slammed it into the soft, sinking rock. He typed the numbers perfectly. "Frequency set! Firing pulse!"WUB!An invisible wave of heavy gravity shot out from the box. It hit the liquid rock. The sheer kinetic force pushed the purple magic away. The soft ground instantly froze into hard, solid stone."Keep moving," Oliver ordered. "Tark, pulse the ground every thirty seconds. Do not break the rhythm.""Yes, sir," Tark breathed heavily.They walked deeper into the earth. For an hour, they moved like a perfect machine. Walk. Pulse. Walk. Pulse. The drones flew ahead, drawing green lines in the dark.But Oliver noticed something strange.He looked at his wrist screen. The green map drawn by the drones was changing. The tunnel behind them was not straight anymore. The walls were moving."Commander," Juno whispered. Her voice was shaking with fear. "My drones... they are reporting a structural anomaly. The cave is alive. The walls are closing i

The ground beneath the city of Oakhaven was shaking. It did not stop. It was a slow, heavy rumble that made the teeth rattle inside the mouth.Deep inside the underground bunker, Commander Oliver stood perfectly still. He watched the giant blue hologram in the center of the room.On the screen, deep below the surface of the planet Sigma-12, a giant red dot was glowing. It was growing bigger. It was getting hotter. The ancient metal vault at the core of the world was opening from the inside."The Wraithborn probe on the surface failed," Oliver said. His voice was cold, flat, and calm. "The King sacrificed millions of monsters up here just to keep our eyes on the sky. He wanted us to look up, while he was digging down.""Boss," Billy the hacker said from his video screen. Billy's hands were shaking on his keyboard. "The energy readings from the tunnels are crazy. The purple Rift magic is leaking into the dirt. It is melting the rock. The whole crust of the planet is becoming unstable."

"Yes," Oliver said. "The humanoid strategist, their King, was testing my reaction speed. He was measuring the exact reload time of our orbital lasers. He was learning how we fight. The real war has not even started yet."The silence in the room was heavy. The fear was real.Oliver did not feel the fear. He only saw the future. He only saw the next equations."I have compiled a Strategic Summary," Oliver announced. "I have three recommendations for the Traveler Council. If you do not follow them, the human race will be extinct in exactly six months."Vane swallowed hard. "Give us your recommendations, Commander."Oliver raised one finger. "First. We must establish permanent monitoring colonies deep inside the Rift. We cannot wait for them to attack our homes. We must build fortresses in the dark space between worlds. We must put our own eyes on their territory."Oliver raised a second finger. "Second. We must strengthen our multi-world rapid-response units. We cannot rely on slow trans
