The soldiers stared at his right arm. It was a monstrous, heavy thing made of solid black alien metal. It pulsed with an evil purple light. And when Oliver looked at them, they saw his eyes.

His left eye was human, cold and gray. But his right eye was glowing with a faint, burning red fire.

The dark magic from the alien coin had crawled up his neck and reached his face. He looked like half a man and half a Wraithborn god.

"By the stars," Miller whispered. He slowly lowered his machine gun. "Co

    Suddenly, Oliver felt a terrible, burning pain on his hip. It was the locked pocket on his military belt.The alien black coin, the Key of Echoes, was inside the pocket. It had been quiet since he closed the link. But now, it was burning. It was not just getting warm. It was burning with the heat of a tiny sun.Oliver gritted his teeth. The pain was absolute. He looked down at his belt.The dark fabric of his uniform began to smoke. Then, it burned away.A bright, branding-iron purple light shined through the cloth. The coin was pressing against Oliver’s human skin, right on his hip bone.Hssssss.The sound of burning flesh filled the quiet air. Oliver did not scream. He forced his breathing to remain perfectly slow. He watched as the coin burned its exact shape into his skin. It burned a perfect circle. It burned the jagged, lightning-bolt lines deep into his flesh. It was a permanent, magical scar."He has marked you," Lira whispered in absolute horror. She backed away from him.Ol

He slowly lowered his machine gun. "Commander... what happened to you?"Oliver walked smoothly toward the barricade. He did not limp. He did not show weakness."I updated my operating system, Sergeant," Oliver said flatly. His voice sounded different. It was deeper, with a faint metallic echo. "The mission was a success. The Overlord’s avatar was destroyed. The vanguard is buried. The planet is secure."Ren ran forward. She did not care about the scary metal arm. She was just glad her leader was alive."Commander!" Ren said. "The ci

    Commander Oliver stood in front of the giant, pulsing Wraithborn Spire. He looked directly at the enemy. The enemy was not a giant, ugly monster. The enemy was a perfect copy of himself.The clone wore the exact same black military uniform. The clone had the exact same pale face. The clone had the exact same cold, gray eyes."The Overlord built me to kill you," the clone said. Its voice was perfectly flat. It sounded exactly like Oliver. "The Overlord downloaded your mind. I know every mathematical formula you know. I know every strategy you have ever created. You cannot beat me, Oliver. Because I am you."The clone raised a heavy black pistol. It pointed the gun straight at Oliver’s head. Oliver did not blink. His heart beat exactly once per second. Thump... thump... thump.He ran the math in his supercomputer brain.Variable A: The clone possesses my exact memories and tactical knowledge up to the moment my brain was scanned.Variable B: The clone’s physical body is fresh. My physi

    The thousands of civilians poured out of the dark hole and ran toward the hovering ship. Ramps lowered from the cargo bays. The people scrambled up the ramps. They were crying with joy.Oliver watched the green dots safely enter the ship. But suddenly, the entire blue holographic map in his mind flashed a violent, blinding red.BZZZZZT!A massive wave of dark magic slammed into Oliver’s brain. The pain was so intense that Oliver actually stopped walking. He dropped to one knee in the dead dirt of the Black Forest."Did you think I would let them leave?" the ancient, terrifying voice of the Overlord boomed inside Oliver’s head.The Overlord was not using monsters this time. The Overlord was using the planet itself.On the map, Oliver saw a massive, localized gravity well forming directly under Ship Twenty. The Overlord was turning the ground into a giant magnet. He was going to pull the flying ship out of the sky and crush it against the concrete."Oliver!" Billy screamed over the rad

    "You have four Anchor-stabilizer discs," Oliver said. "Throw them at the floating rocks above the magma. Freeze the rocks in place. Create stepping stones."The crowd of civilians reached the edge of the magma river. The heat was blinding. Bright orange fire boiled below them. The air was thick with smoke.Jax stepped to the edge. He pulled out the silver discs. He threw the first one. It hit a large, floating black rock.BEEP.The rock froze in mid-air. Jax threw three more discs. They hit three more rocks. A perfect, floating bridge was formed across the deadly river of fire."Bridge is stable!" Jax yelled."Send the civilians across," Oliver ordered. "But hurry. The Overlord has noticed your movement. He is sending interceptors."Oliver watched the red dots on his map. A swarm of fast, deadly Phase Sentries was crawling through the solid rock walls. They were heading straight for the magma river."Captain Ren," Oliver commanded. "The enemy is approaching from the left and right wal

    The dark forest was perfectly quiet. Commander Oliver walked through the dead, black trees. The poisonous purple fog rolled over his heavy boots. He was completely alone. He was walking toward the massive, dark Wraithborn Spire in the distance.His right hand and arm were made of smooth, black metal. Glowing purple lines pulsed under the alien steel. The dark magic from the alien coin had eaten his human flesh. It had given him the strength of a monster.In his left hand, Oliver held his silent sniper rifle. In his hidden belt pocket, the alien coin, the Key of Echoes, beat like a dark heart. Thump. Thump. Thump.Suddenly, the radio in Oliver’s helmet crackled with loud, violent static."Oliver!" Captain Iris screamed through the radio. Her voice was full of pure terror. "Oliver, do you hear me?!"Oliver stopped walking. He did not panic. He tapped his radio with his black metal hand."I hear you, Captain Iris," Oliver said. His voice was completely flat and calm. "Report your stat
