Plumbing Problems?
Chapter 237 Sector 6 - The Meatpacking DistrictSector 6 was a labyrinth of rust and cold concrete. The massive, windowless slaughterhouses loomed in the smog like concrete tombstones. The air smelled permanently of old iron and chemical decay. The drop-ship hovered silently over the roof of the central processing plant, masking its heat signature. "Thermal scans show at least forty armed hostiles inside," Cora reported over the comms. "But they aren't glowing green, Adrian. They’re wearing tactical gear. Real professionals. Mercenaries protecting the lab.""Good," Adrian said, standing by the open ramp of the drop-ship. "I was worried I was going to have to spend the whole day fighting civilians. Joe, you ready?""I don't know, Boss. I feel naked without Lena threatening to shoot me if I miss," Joe joked, racking the bolt on his pulse rifle. "You'll do fine. Try not to shoot the chemical vats. We don't want to accidentally gas the neighborhood," Adrian stepped off the ramp. [ SY
Mob in Aethelgard?!
Chapter 236 Within ten seconds, the entire mob was pinned flat against the pavement, groaning and thrashing, completely immobilized by the gravity net. "Get the zip-ties, Graves," Adrian ordered, dusting his hands off. "And call the orderlies. Let's get these people into detox."Graves stared at the field of pinned civilians in absolute awe. "Yes, Lord Black. Right away!"Adrian turned his back on the plaza and walked through the shattered automatic doors of the hospital lobby. The pristine white floors were covered in glass, overturned chairs, and panicked medical staff. Standing in the center of the chaos, looking remarkably unruffled in his bespoke suit and a pristine white lab coat, was Dr. Victor Aris. "Victor," Adrian greeted him cheerfully. "I see the new management is off to a rocky start."Aris glared at him, pushing his wire-rimmed glasses up his nose. "This is not a failure of management, Adrian. This is an organized assault on our infrastructure. Have you contained the
No Longer At Ease
Chapter 235 "I miss her already," Joe sighed, staring mournfully at the cup of lukewarm, violently bitter coffee in his hand. "This tastes like engine oil and regret. Lena would never allow this on the dreadnought.""Lena is currently on a balcony in the Mediterranean, sipping a mimosa and not shooting people, Joe. Let the woman enjoy her retirement," Adrian Black said, adjusting the cuffs of his brand-new, midnight-blue suit. Giuseppe the tailor had worked through the night, terrified by the prospect of the Administrator fighting crime in a wrinkled jacket. The Vanguard drop-ship banked sharply, descending through the smog layer of Sector 4. "I'm just saying, the quality of our beverage service has severely degraded in the last twelve hours," Joe grumbled, tossing the cup into a recycling chute. He picked up his heavy pulse rifle, checking the stun-settings. "So, what’s the play here, Boss? Cora said these guys are civilians, right? We can't just vaporize them.""We are not vapori
Costs An Arm and a Leg
Chapter 235 For the next twenty minutes, the only sound on the bridge was the heavy, rhythmic thrum of the ascending engines and the anxious, shallow breathing of the crew. "Depth: ten thousand feet," Cora finally announced, the tension in her shoulders unwinding slightly. "The pressure is normalizing. Hull integrity is holding at sixty-five percent. We're safe, Adrian. We're going to make it."Joe let out a massive, shuddering breath, slumping into the weapons chair. "I am never, ever complaining about fighting terrestrial cyborgs again. From now on, if it doesn't breathe air, I am not shooting at it."Adrian chuckled, stepping away from the dashboard. The golden-crimson-silver light in his eyes faded to a comfortable, warm hum. The Root Access was quiet. The planet was secure. He looked over at the pilot's chair to offer a compliment, but the words died in his throat. Lena Belmont was not sitting with her usual, ramrod-straight aristocratic posture. She was slumped forward, her
The gods Die
Chapter 233 Adrian didn't just cause an earthquake. He violently, instantaneously inverted the magnetic polarity of the Earth's crust specifically beneath the Mariana Trench. The effect was apocalyptic, yet entirely silent. The Void Aristocracy's city relied on the ambient, foundational physics of the planet to maintain its localized non-Euclidean geometry and its cryogenic life-support systems. By artificially inverting the magnetic field beneath them, Adrian introduced a massive, catastrophic mathematical error into their ancient hardware. The entire necropolis short-circuited. Every single glowing silver light in the millions of hexagonal pods simultaneously violently popped, turning pitch black. The deep, resonant humming died instantly. The cryogenic venting ceased. Above Adrian, the Arch-Duke’s sarcophagus violently sparked. The dark-matter beams holding it aloft sputtered and failed. The massive crystal tomb crashed to the floor, shattering into thousands of pieces. The
Phantom Abyss
Chapter 232 "Boss," Joe whispered, double-checking the plasma magazine on his rifle for the fifth time. "I know you're literally a god right now. But we are walking into a room full of sleeping aliens who built a tax-collection empire to harvest the universe. Are we really just going to punch them?""No, Joe," Adrian said, raising his right hand. The golden-crimson-silver light ignited, illuminating the cramped airlock. "We're going to unplug them."Adrian placed his hand against the exterior hatch. He didn't use a localized bubble of zero-pressure this time. The sub was wedged deeply into the interior of the spire, bypassing the ocean entirely. He simply reached out with his Root Access and ripped the heavy, tungsten-alloy hatch completely off its hinges, tossing it aside. They stepped out of the submarine and into the Void. The interior of the central spire was vast, echoing, and terrifyingly cold. The air was breathable, but it felt thin and tasted of sterile ozone and ancient d
