Oliver was perfectly calm. His brain calculated their exact attack angles."Left flank attack at forty degrees. Right flank attack at negative thirty degrees," Oliver muttered softly to himself.Oliver dropped to one knee. He let the left monster fly completely over his head.As the monster passed over him, Oliver thrust his left hand straight up. He held his sharp titanium combat knife.The knife sliced cleanly through the soft, pale belly of the flying beast. The monster's guts spilled out, and it crashed into the wall, dead instantly. It turned into a pile of black ash.One dead. Two left.The monster on the right landed next to Oliver. It swung its massive, clawed paw, trying to rip Oliver’s head off.Oliver did not dodge. He raised his black metal left arm. He caught the giant monster’s claw with his bare metal hand.CLANG! The sharp claws scratched harmlessly against the alien steel. Oliver’s fingers locked around the monster's wrist like a vice. He squeezed.CRUNCH. The beast’

"Lira," Oliver whispered in his mind. "I need to create deceptive energy pulses. I need to mask our true position. How much magic can I push out of the coin without burning my brain?"Lira floated beside him. "If you push the magic outward, you can create fake echoes. You can leave 'footprints' of light on the walls. But Oliver, every time you push the magic, the black metal on your arm will grow. It will eat more of your humanity."Oliver looked down at his metal arm. The purple veins were already throbbing painfully.Variable A: The infection spreads with magic use.Variable B: If I do not use the magic, the Apex Seekers will slaughter my squad.Conclusion: The infection is an acceptable cost."I will manage the infection," Oliver said flatly. He closed his metal fingers around the glowing black coin.Oliver focused his supercomputer brain. He did not pull the magic into himself to make a map. Instead, he forced his own cold, calculating will into the coin. He pushed the magic outwa

The tunnel was completely pitch-black.Commander Oliver walked alone into the deep earth. The silence was heavy. It pressed against his ears like thick water. His heavy combat boots made no sound on the smooth stone floor. He moved like a ghost.Half of his face was covered in smooth, black Wraithborn metal. His right arm was completely alien. The dark magic from the black coin had eaten his human flesh. Glowing purple veins pulsed inside his dark, metallic skin.He was walking toward the Overlord. He was walking toward the end of the world.Suddenly, Oliver stopped. His cold, gray human ear heard a sound. It was very faint. It was far behind him.Crunch. Scrape. Crunch. It was the sound of heavy boots stepping on loose rocks.Oliver did not turn around. He did not ask who was there. He instantly raised his silent sniper rifle with his left hand. He aimed it backward over his shoulder, perfectly tracking the sound in the dark."Halt," Oliver commanded. His voice was flat, cold, and m

The giant spiders stopped climbing. They clung to the walls far below the blue bridge, out of range of the plasma rifles.They turned their ugly heads downward. They aimed at the cracked rock shelf where the remaining ninety civilians were still waiting to climb."Commander!" Vega shouted. "They are aiming at the bottom shelf! They are going to spit acid on the people waiting in line!"Oliver processed the new variables in one millisecond.Variable A: The spiders are out of optimal firing range.Variable B: If they spit acid webs on the shelf, ninety civilians will die instantly.Variable C: I must neutralize the spiders without destroying the rock shelf."Cease fire," Oliver commanded the soldiers."Cease fire?!" Davis yelled in panic. "Sir, they are going to kill them!""They will not kill them," Oliver said flatly.Oliver stepped onto the glowing blue hard-light bridge. He walked out over the massive, empty drop. He stood directly above the trapped civilians.He looked down at the

Vega raised her gun. She aimed across the dark abyss. "Aiming.""Fire a piton bullet," Oliver commanded. "A heavy spike."BANG! Vega fired. A thick steel spike shot out of her gun and slammed deep into the solid rock wall across the canyon."Perfect," Oliver said.Oliver reached into his belt. He pulled out one of his last silver Anchor-stabilizer discs. He tied the thick copper cable securely around the silver disc.Oliver then did something impossible. He threw the silver disc across the massive, two-hundred-foot canyon.His black metal right arm was not human. It had the strength of a Wraithborn Goliath. He threw the heavy disc with the power of a cannon.The disc flew in a perfect, straight line. It hit the steel spike that Vega had shot into the far wall. The magnetic lock on the disc clicked. It stuck to the spike.Now, a thick copper cable hung directly across the canyon, forming a tightrope high above the trapped civilians."The line is set," Oliver said smoothly. "Billy. Turn

The bullet flew through the bright blue light of the reactor room. It was a simple piece of heavy metal. But Commander Oliver had calculated its path perfectly. He calculated the speed of the bullet. He calculated the wind from the cooling fans. He calculated the exact microsecond Captain Iris would press her thumb down.The bullet did not hit Iris in the chest. It did not hit her beautiful face.CRACK! The heavy bullet hit the small red detonator perfectly in the center. The red plastic shattered into a hundred pieces. The wires broke. The detonator was completely destroyed before Iris could push the button.Iris let out a terrible, unnatural scream. It was not her voice. It was the ancient, booming voice of the Overlord.The dark god realized his bomb was broken. He could not blow up the planet. The trap had failed.The sick, dark purple veins on Iris’s neck suddenly vanished. The glowing red fire in her eyes went out. The Overlord dropped her mind, retreating back into the dark e
