Chapter 329
Alaric raised his massive, gauntleted left hand. He pointed his armored finger directly at Frank’s forehead. "So," the False King said, his golden eyes burning with malicious, evil delight. "I am not going to break your body today, Frank Williams. I am going to break your mind."Inside Frank’s brain, the blue System HUD suddenly flashed violently. The screen turned a bright, blinding, aggressive crimson red. A loud, piercing, terrifying digital siren began to scream inside his skull. [ CRITICAL WARNING! ] Luna’s voice cried out in pure, unadulterated digital terror. [ HOSTILE ADMIN OVERRIDE DETECTED. ][ THE TARGET IS BYPASSING THE EXTERNAL FIREWALL. ]"What is he doing?!" Frank yelled in his mind. He squeezed his eyes shut, grabbing his head with his human right hand. A sudden, sharp, terrible pain stabbed directly into the very center of his brain. "He is using his Admin privileges!" Luna explained rapidly, her voice shaking. "He is not attacking you with physical magic! He is

"I... am not... a dog," Frank wheezed. He gritted his teeth. He reached deep into his empty chest. "Luna," Frank thought desperately. "Give me the spark. Connect my spine. Give me the strength to stand.""Frank, the gravity is too strong," Luna cried in his mind. "If I send magic to your legs now, the conflicting pressure will snap your bones in half!""I don't care!" Frank roared in his brain. "I will not kneel to him! Give me the spark!"Luna did not argue. She knew Frank’s willpower was absolute. A tiny, faint, beautiful blue light flickered in the center of Frank’s chest. The magic rushed down his spine, forcing the severed nerves to communicate. Frank let out a loud, agonizing scream. The pain of fighting the crushing gravity with his broken body was astronomical. It felt like his muscles were tearing completely off his bones. But Frank pushed his hands against the floor. He locked his good left knee. He dragged his heavy, splinted right leg forward. Slowly, inch by terrib
Chapter 327
The False King simply looked at the group of forty refugees lying on the floor behind Frank. Alaric narrowed his glowing golden eyes. Suddenly, the air in the massive, fleshy throne room completely changed. A loud, deep, heavy humming sound filled the cavern. Frank felt it instantly. The gravity in the room violently, aggressively shifted. It did not just get a little heavier. It spiked to an impossible, crushing, astronomical level. It felt like a giant, invisible foot made of solid iron had just stomped down directly on top of the entire room. "AGGGGH!" Frank roared in pure agony. The incredible, crushing gravity hit his shoulders. Because he was standing on his one good left leg, leaning on the wooden crutch, his balance was already fragile. The invisible weight pushed him straight down. His wooden crutch dug deeply into the squishy, dark red meat of the floor. The petrified wood bent under the impossible pressure. Frank’s left knee buckled instantly. He collapsed. He fe
Chapter 326
A large, detailed blue text box appeared in the right corner of Frank’s vision. The blue text began to type out rapidly. [ SCAN COMPLETE. ][ TARGET IDENTIFICATION: ALARIC VORN. ][ STATUS: DECEASED / REANIMATED BY ROOT PARASITE. ][ CLASSIFICATION: APEX GUARDIAN. ]Frank kept reading. The first few lines were exactly what he expected. He already knew Alaric was a dead puppet brought back to life by the alien weed. But as the text continued, Frank’s blood began to turn perfectly, absolutely ice-cold. [ ANALYZING COMBAT CAPABILITIES... ][ THE TARGET IS CONNECTED DIRECTLY TO THE PLANETARY MAINFRAME. ][ THE TARGET HAS ASSIMILATED YOUR COMBAT DATA FROM PREVIOUS ENCOUNTERS. ]"What does that mean?" Frank asked in his mind. His breathing grew faster. "It means he learned from you, Frank," Luna whispered. Her voice was filled with deep, profound dread. "When you fought him in the palace days ago, you showed the machine how you use your magic. The Root copied your code. It gave your pow
Chapter 325
The massive, ten-foot-long golden broadsword burned brightly in the hot, humid air of the fleshy throne room. It was not a sword made of normal metal. It was made of pure, compressed, hard-light magic. It was the exact same type of magic that Frank Williams used for his Phantom Limb. But this weapon was utterly corrupted. It burned with a dark, sick, aggressive yellow fire. Thick, violent arcs of pitch-black lightning whipped around the glowing blade. Every time the black lightning popped, it made a sound like a cracking whip.The heat radiating from the giant golden sword was absolutely incredible. It felt like standing directly in front of an open, roaring furnace. The hot air pushed against Frank’s pale, dirty face. It dried the sweat on his cheeks. It burned his nose. King Alaric Vorn stood perfectly still. He was eight feet tall. His body was a terrifying mix of dead, gray flesh, thick black steel armor, and pulsing golden muscle. He held the massive golden sword effortlessl
Chapter 324
The False King raised his massive, heavily armored right arm high into the hot, humid air of the cavern. Suddenly, the thick, glowing golden veins running across the squishy red walls and the floor began to pulse violently. The massive heartbeat of the room doubled in speed. The ambient, raw magical energy of the Root was violently sucked out of the air. It flowed directly toward King Alaric. The energy swirled around Alaric’s raised right arm. Frank watched in absolute, paralyzing horror. He recognized exactly what the King was doing. He knew the technique. He knew the feeling of the magic gathering in the air. "No," Frank whispered. His breath caught completely in his throat. "Behold the true power of the crown," Alaric roared. A massive, blinding explosion of sick, dark magic erupted from King Alaric’s right arm. The magic did not form a shield. It did not fire a blast. It solidified. Wrapping perfectly around Alaric’s dark steel armor, a massive, giant arm of pure, compre
