Chapter 148: The Angel Engine
The Vatican underground chamber smelled of incense and burning ozone.Je stood in front of a giant machine called the "Pipe Organ." However, instead of channeling air to produce holy music, the transparent pipes flowed thick golden liquid sucked directly from the body of a creature staked to the wall.The creature was beautiful. Its face androgynous, flawless. Its wings - or what remained of them - were made of feebly flickering feathers of light.It was a Seraphim. A high-level Owner race."You torture your own 'God'?" Je asked cynically, looking at Cardinal Marcus."He is not God," a child's voice echoed from a high podium. "He is merely
SERIES 19: EUROPEAN NECROPOLIS Chapter 147: The Marble Gladiators
Volcanic ash from Mount Vesuvius fell like black snow, covering the cobblestone streets of ancient Rome.Je stepped down from the Solar Barque, his legs wobbling. The use of Sun-Burst had drained his Mana reserves to a critical point. His Dhampir skin was deathly pale, black veins protruding like dry roots."Je, you need rest," Rara steadied Je's body. Rara's skin was still warm and glowing dimly - remnants of the solar energy she swallowed."Rest is for the dead," Je coughed, black blood dripping onto the street stones. "And in this city... it seems even the dead don't rest."Around them, the ruins of the Roman Forum stood like giant broken teeth. Statues of gods and emperors adorning the streets looked intact. Too intact."I'm hungry," Guntur complained, holding his stomach with his left hand. His severed right arm (burn wound from the reactor) still felt hot. "I thought Italy was full of pizza. Turns out it's just rocks and ice.""Quiet, Guntur," Sinta hissed. She turned off her ta
SERIES 19: EUROPEAN NECROPOLIS Chapter 146: The Freezing of the Mediterranean
The temperature shift happened in seconds.One moment, they were gliding over the warm Mediterranean Sea, the African desert wind still caressing their skin. The next second, the bright blue sky turned into iron gray pressing on their chests.CRACK... CRACK... CRACK...The sound came from beneath the golden hull of the Solar Barque."The water..." Bara leaned out from the helm, her eyes wide with horror. "The water is turning solid!"Behind them, the sea waves didn't break. They stopped. The seawater froze instantly into a ten-meter-high wall of ice chasing them at the speed of sound."General Winter," Je hissed, standing at the stern. "He's not playing around."On the northern horizon, a giant blizzard moved against the wind, swallowing Italy and Greece in white darkness. And in the middle of that storm, the silhouette of The Iron Tsar -General Winter's floating fortress- was visible."GIVE BACK MY MOTHER, MURDERER."Winter's voice echoed, not through the air, but through the ice cre
Chapter 145: Eclipse in the King's Chamber
ZZZRRRTTT!The solar plasma ball shot from Akhenaten's hand.Je couldn't run. His legs were trapped in quicksand.So he did the only crazy thing available: He dived.Je took a deep breath, then submerged his head into the boiling sand right before the plasma hit.BOOOOOM!The heat explosion above him was so massive that the surface sand instantly melted and solidified back into black volcanic glass (Obsidian) a meter thick. Je was trapped under that glass, like a fly in hot amber."Pest cleared," Akhenaten turned, looking back at Rara.
Chapter 144: The Hounds of Hell
"VERDICT: DEATH."The double voice of the two Anubis statues shook the stone floor. Their laser spears spun, creating circles of blue light cutting the air with a humming sound."Take the left one, Je! I want the right one! He looks more muscular!" Rara yelled, her tongue lolling out long, saliva dripping."Leave the head for a trophy!" Je replied.The Left Anubis charged at Je. Its spear stabbed at the speed of sound.ZING!Je parried with his Claymore.BOOM!The impact created a shockwave. Je's feet sank five centimeters into the stone floor. This Anubis's strength was equal to 100 tons of hydraulic pressure."THE WEIGHT OF YOUR SINS SLOWS YOU DOWN."The Anubis's blue eyes shone brightly.Suddenly, Je felt his body weigh as much as a mountain. This wasn't physical gravity like when fighting Surya. This was Soul Heaviness. Everyone Je had ever killed zombies, humans, Owners seemed to hang from his neck."Argh..." Je fell to his knees. His sword felt impossible to lift."KNEEL BEFORE
Chapter 143: The Quicksand Slide
"THIS ISN'T A ROAD! THIS IS A WATERFALL!" Guntur screamed, gripping the truck dashboard until the metal dented under his human (and robotic) fingers.The Mack truck wasn't driving. It was falling.They were sliding down the sinkhole wall at an 80-degree angle. The truck wheels spun uselessly in the air, while its steel hull surfed on the avalanche of gray sand flowing fast like a flood."Keep the wheel straight, Bara!" Je ordered from the passenger seat. His hands were steady, even though his Dhampir heart pumped intoxicating adrenaline."I'm trying, Demon!" Bara turned the wheel with all her might, her arm muscles tensing. "This sand is slippery! Feels like driving on oil!"Behind them, tons of quicksand chased, ready to bury them alive if their momentum slowed even a little."Je..." Rara, sitting on Je's lap (due to the cramped cabin), laughed instead. She licked the vibrating window glass. "The vibration... feels good.""Focus, Honey," Je patted Rara's hip. "We're going to crash."
