Chapter 106: The First Launch
"We have a problem, Osric," Jax shouted. "A big one.""What now?" I yelled. I ran toward the edge of the hangar. My Space-Drowned squad followed me. "I’m on their ship. Isn't that enough?""The ship's engines are dead!" Jax screamed. "Your 'sister' sent a kill-code to this vessel. It’s stalling. You’re going to fall and burn up!""Can you restart it?" I asked. "No!" Kael cut in. "The systems are fried. And there are no rockets left on Earth, Osric. The Director destroyed the last launch pads. You’re stranded!""I'm not staying here to die," I said. I looked down at the planet. The orange beam was still stabbing the core. The ocean was swirling in a giant circle."What are you looking at?" Jax asked. "The water," I said. "Kael, how much pressure is in that whirlpool?""It’s off the charts!" Kael said. "Why?""I’m going to use it," I said. "If there are no rockets, I’ll make my own.""You’re going to jump?" Jax gasped. "From space?""I’m going to guide the ship down into the eye of that
Chapter 105: The Space-Drowned
"The screen just went black," I growled. I slammed my fist against the side of the metal cage. "Jax! Kael! Can you hear me?""The signal is gone, Osric!" Kael’s voice crackled. "The girl on the moon blocked us. We lost the feed!""I don't care about the feed," I said. I looked up through the bars of the cage. "I have to go up there. I’m going to kill her.""You're in a cage!" Jax yelled. "You're being taken! How are you going to kill anyone?""I'm not going alone," I said.I closed my eyes. I reached out with my mind. I could still feel my legion on the ground. They were waiting. The connection was thin, but it was there."System! Access the evolution menu!" I roared.[EVOLUTION MENU OPENED. SELECT TRAITS FOR RE-ENGINEERING.]"I need soldiers for the moon," I said. "They need to breathe without air. They need to fight with no gravity.""Osric, that’s insane!" Kael shouted. "You can't change them in a second!""Watch me," I said.I picked my top fifty elite guards. I felt their souls l
Chapter 104: The Moon-Base Discovery
I laid in the mud and gritted my teeth. The pain in my arms was like fire. Both bones were snapped. My hands were just heavy weights at the ends of my sleeves."Osric, stay down!" Jax yelled through the comms. "The legion is five minutes away. Don't move!""I can't wait five minutes," I gasped. I looked at the water around me. It was still glowing from the red moon. I could feel the essence in the air. It was thick and heavy."What are you doing?" Kael asked. "Your energy levels are spiking!""I'm fixing this," I said. I pulled the air into my lungs. I reached out with my mind and grabbed the raw essence floating in the puddles. "Consume," I whispered.[ESSENCE ABSORPTION ACTIVE. RECONSTRUCTING BONE TISSUE.]"Agh!" I screamed. It felt like hot needles were sewing my skin together. I heard the bones in my arms grinding. They slid back into place. The purple bruises faded in seconds."Did you just heal yourself?" Jax asked."I had to," I said. I pushed myself up. My arms felt stiff, but
Chapter 103: The Gravity Warping
"I'm going!" I yelled into the wind.I kicked off the edge of the bone platform. The air was thin and freezing. I was falling toward the clouds at a crazy speed."Osric, you’re going to die!" Jax screamed. "The impact will turn you into a pancake!""Not today!" I shouted back. My heart was pounding against my ribs. The Abyssal Pearl in my eye was still hot. It felt like it was trying to crawl out of my face.[EMERGENCY MEASURES INITIATED,][GRAVITY FIELD UNLOCKED. LOCAL MANIPULATION ACTIVE.]"What does that mean?" I asked. "It means you can fly, man!" Kael yelled. "Look at your speed! You're breaking the sound barrier!"I felt a weird pull in my stomach. It was like I had a giant magnet in my gut. I leaned forward and the wind roared past my ears. I wasn't just falling anymore. I was a missile."The wave is hitting in thirty seconds!" Jax warned. "Can you see it?""I see it!" I said. The wall of water looked like a mountain made of blue glass. It was 500-feet high. It was moving so fa
Chapter 102: The Moon Tides
"Jax! My eye!" I screamed. I clutched my face. The Abyssal Pearl was beating like a heart. It felt like it was trying to rip out of my skull. Every pulse sent cold energy through my body."What's happening?" Jax yelled. "Your vitals are spiking!""The moon," I gasped. "It’s pulling. No, I'm pulling it.""You're pulling the moon?" Kael asked. "That’s impossible!""I'm serious!" I roared. "The Pearl is locked on to that gate! I can feel the gravity shifting!""He’s right!" Kael’s voice went thin. "The moon’s orbit just shifted. Osric, it’s a disaster!""What does that mean for the ground?" I asked. My head was stuck looking up. "The tides!" Jax screamed. "The ocean is reacting! We’re getting reports from the Amazon. The river is flowing toward the coast!""A massive tide is pulling the water out," Kael added. "Osric, the refugees! They’re right in the path of the return wave!""Shut it off!" I yelled at the System. "Cancel the lock! Shut off the Pearl!"[ERROR][EXTERNAL GRAVITATIONAL
Chapter 101: The Space-Abyss Connection
The light from the probe was red. It was burning into my skin. I didn't care about the scan. I didn't care that it was taking my data. I just wanted it gone."What did you do?" I roared at the silver sphere."Osric, stop!" Kael yelled in my ear. "The data stream is too fast! If you hit it now, the feedback could fry your brain!""I don't care!" I yelled back. I swung with everything I had. My fist hit the silver metal. The sphere shattered like glass. Pieces of silver flew across the platform. "You broke it?" Jax asked. He sounded shocked. "I broke it," I said. I was breathing hard."Wait," Kael whispered. "Osric, look at the pieces. They're still glowing." The broken shards were vibrating on the bone floor. They were pulsing in a pattern."It’s sending a signal," I said. "A final transmission," Kael said. "It’s calling for help.""Let them come," I spat. Suddenly, a sharp pain hit my left eye. It was the Abyssal Pearl. The thing had been quiet since I got to the top of the Spire. No
