The van sped through the snow-dusted Norwegian countryside, headlights piercing the early morning gloom. Inside, the atmosphere was tense. Ethan sat beside Clara, his eyes scanning the road ahead, while Lyra and Jason monitored their equipment in the back. Lucien, though still recovering, was alert, his gaze fixed on the horizon.

“We’re approaching Oslo,” Clara announced, her voice steady. “Final node’s location is confirmed—beneath the old opera house.”

Ethan nodded. “Let’s finish this.”

Oslo greeted them with a cold, biting wind. The city was quiet, its streets deserted in the early hours. The van pulled into a concealed garage near the opera house. The team disembarked, each member checking their gear one last time.

“This is it,” Jason said, holding up the final ghost drive. “Once we upload this, the King’s network collapses.&rd

  • Chapter 192 – The Prime Gradient

    The starlines blurred as the Arclight entered quantum transit, slicing through the undercurrents of darkspace like a blade through velvet. Ethan Cross stood in the upper observation deck, watching the void warp around the ship. Behind him, a holomap flickered, displaying their destination in stark crimson: Delta-Victor 9, a blacksite once thought erased from existence.The Prime Gradient wasn’t just theoretical anymore.It was operational—and weeks, maybe days, from full activation.“Delta-Victor 9,” Mira said, approaching with a datapad in hand. “Originally a harmonic testing array. Shut down during the Second Accord Collapse. Or so we thought.”Ethan didn’t look away from the void. “Dominion never erases anything. They bury it. In sand, ice, or memory.”Kaz’s voice buzzed in over comms. “We’ve got contact—rogue beacon ping from a Dominion comms array in orbit around DV9

  • Chapter 191 – The Hollow Archive

    The stars had not changed, but Ethan Cross had. In the aftermath of the Dominion’s failed sabotage, the Arclight cut through deep space with its core recalibrated and its crew reshaped by the fire they’d endured. Yet peace, even a fleeting one, had a way of unearthing buried truths.They were thirty-six hours from a classified orbital node codenamed The Hollow Archive—a station that, according to decrypted Dominion logs, housed legacy memories too dangerous to store in the Vault. It had been scrubbed from the Oversight Network after the Second Accord War. And yet now, it pulsed to life again.“Final approach in two hours,” Mira Vale announced from navigation. Her tone was neutral, but her hands gripped the controls too tightly.Kaz leaned over a weapons console. “Anything this buried is either dead… or waiting to kill us.”Arin Soh was already plugged into the Archive’s resonance field. Her eyes flick

  • Chapter 190 — Reforging the Prism

    The Nightshade cruised back through the Halcyon Verge’s fractured orbits, its hull scarred from the outpost’s collapse. Captain Ethan Cross stood in the shuttle’s command alcove, the stolen sabotage code humming in its containment module like a trapped heartbeat. Every breath reminded him of the line they’d walked—between preservation and sacrifice, trust and deception.First Officer Mira Vale entered, face illuminated by glimmering holodisplays. “We’ve got the code. It’s worse than we thought.”Ethan turned, concern etching his features. “Details?”Mira swallowed. “They’re not just erasing nodes. They’ve built a recursive algorithm—a fractal wipe that, once triggered, will spread through the Vault like a virus, erasing memory and rewriting nodes with Dominion propaganda.”A cold weight settled in Ethan&rs

  • Chapter 189 — Into the Heart of the Verge

    The Nightshade glided silently through the shadows of the Halcyon Verge, its sleek frame blending with the swirling asteroid debris. Captain Ethan Cross gripped the edge of the command console, eyes locked on the holographic display that mapped the Dominion outpost’s coordinates.The crew’s collective breath seemed held in the vacuum of space—anticipation heavy, every moment laden with peril.“Scanners indicate the outpost’s systems are in low-power mode,” Mira reported, voice tight with concentration. “They’re not fully active, but it’s a trap waiting to spring.”Ethan nodded. “Our objective: infiltrate, secure intel, and neutralize any threats. Stealth over brute force.”Kaz Reed, co-pilot and weapons specialist, adjusted his targeting array. “Stealth is overrated. I say we blast our way through and show them what Arclight crew are mad

  • Chapter 188 — Fractures Within the Prism

    The silence on the Arclight was not peace. It was a breath held, waiting for the storm.Captain Ethan Cross stood before the expansive viewport on the bridge, staring into the endless void beyond. The starfields shimmered indifferently, uncaring of the battles waging aboard his ship. But within those steel walls, the fight for the galaxy’s memory was escalating.The Dominion’s ghosts had stirred, and their reach was deeper than anyone imagined.The council chamber was thick with tension. The Oversight Council gathered in somber formation, each face a study in resolve and hidden fears. The Archivist’s demand lingered—trade a Vault node or risk losing control entirely.Ethan addressed them, voice steady but firm: “Memory is not currency to be spent carelessly. Each node holds a legacy, a people’s story. To sacrifice one is to rend the tapestry we’ve sworn to protect.”<

  • Chapter 187 — Shadows Over the Prism

    The Arclight hummed with quiet energy as it slipped deeper into the uncharted stretches beyond the Luminous Deep. The nebula’s fading glow gave way to the cold void, star fields cold and indifferent. Yet the crew’s hearts were far from chilled—each carried the weight of recent discoveries and the knowledge that the Vault’s network was growing stronger. But with light comes shadow.Captain Ethan Cross lingered on the bridge, gaze fixed on the holo-map where the newly integrated nodes pulsed softly. The harmony of the restored archives was undeniable, yet beneath it, a faint discord hummed—an anomaly buried deep within the Vault’s network.“Mira, have you had any updates from the Zodiac Ring?” Ethan asked without turning.Mira Vale, standing by the console, didn’t hesitate. “There’s been increased Covenant signal interference on Lyrae. It’s subtle&mdas
