Chapter 72: The Daughter of the Stars
The reinforced steel door of the bunker hissed shut, sealing out the smell of ionized ozone and the distant screams of the city. I leaned against the cold concrete wall, my chest heaving, the "Sovereign Reservoir" still humming like a live wire under my skin."Hao! You're alive!"I didn't even have time to steady my breath before Jiang Mei was in front of me. She didn't look like the scared girl I’d rescued weeks ago. Her skin was translucent, glowing with a soft, rhythmic amber light. Her eyes—usually a deep brown—were now swirling nebulae of gold and silver. She wasn't looking at me; she was looking through me, her head tilted as if listening to a frequency only she could hear."I’m alive, Mei," I grunted, wiping a smear of soot from my forehead. "The 'God’s Eye' missed. Or rather, I made sure it didn't hit.""It didn't miss, Brother," she whispered, her voice sounding like two people speaking at once. "It fed you. But that was a mistake on their part. They didn't realize you could
Chapter 71: Refracting the Heavens
The sky didn't just turn bright; it ceased to be sky. One moment, the Zurich skyline was a jagged silhouette of glass and greed; the next, it was a vertical ocean of violet fire. The GMC’s orbital laser, the "God’s Eye," hit the atmosphere with a sound like the world’s largest bell being struck by a meteor. A high-frequency shriek tore through the air, shattering every window in a three-block radius."Hao! Move! For the love of God, get out of there!" Luo Bing’s voice was a frantic scratch in my earpiece, barely audible over the roar of ionized air.I didn't move. I didn't even blink. I stood on the edge of the marble balcony, my boots planted firmly on the ledge. I could feel the heat. It wasn't just warmth; it was the sensation of the universe trying to unmake me."System," I whispered, my voice calm despite the apocalypse descending from the clouds. "Absolute limit. Give me everything."[SYSTEM ALERT: DIVINE HEALING CORE AT 450% OUTPUT. WARNING: MOLECULAR INSTABILITY DETECTED.]"Sh
Chapter 70: The Obital Gaze
"If you want to kill a god, you better not miss. Because from where I’m standing, you’re just a coward hiding behind a very expensive magnifying glass."The wind over Zurich was biting, a razor-edged chill that whipped my duster around my shins as I stood on the penthouse balcony of the GMC building. Below, the city was a chaotic tapestry of emergency lights and sirens, but I wasn't looking down. I was looking up. Somewhere in the cold, silent vacuum of orbit, The Vanguard was positioned—a weaponized station capable of turning the atmosphere into a pressurized delivery system for the most lethal pathogens known to man."Sir, the uplink is nearly stable," Luo Bing shouted over the wind. He was hunched over a heavy, black Pelican case, his fingers flying across a military-grade terminal. "I’m trying to spoof their targeting sensors, but they’re using a quantum-locked encryption. It’s like trying to hack a ghost.""Don't hack the ghost, Luo Bing," I said, my voice low and steady. "Just f
Chapter 69: The Zurich Reckoning
Chapter 69: The Zurich ReckoningThe air in the GMC boardroom was thick with the scent of ozone and the metallic tang of fear. I didn't wait for the directors to recover from the shock of the orbital feed. I didn't care about the man in the High Seat right now; I cared about the ground beneath my feet."The pen, Hamilton," I said, sliding a thick stack of asset transfer documents across the mahogany table. "Sign it. All of it."Lord Hamilton looked at the papers, his hands trembling so violently he had to grip the edge of the table. "You... you’re demanding the entire European Medical Infrastructure? This is trillions of dollars in research, hospitals, and patents. The Council will never—""The Council is currently a collection of statues in their own hallway," I interrupted, my voice as cold as the Swiss night. "You have two choices. Sign these assets over to the Jiang Sovereignty Foundation, or I leave this room and let the Director’s orbital strike find this building with you still
Chapter 68: The High Seat’s Shadow
I stood in the center of the GMC’s medical penthouse in Zurich, a room that screamed of sterile opulence and the arrogance of men who thought they could legislate life and death. The walls were made of reinforced smart-glass, overlooking the city, but my focus was on the long mahogany table where the Board of Directors sat like a row of vultures.They had my sister in the adjacent isolation ward, trapped behind five layers of kinetic shielding."Mr. Jiang, let us be reasonable," Chairman Hamilton said, his voice a smooth, upper-class purr. He was a man who looked like he had never missed a meal or a bribe in his life. He adjusted his silk tie and tapped a thick stack of papers on the table. "We have processed the legal injunction. Under the Global Bio-Security Act, your sister, Jiang Mei, is classified as a Grade-A biological threat. She is no longer your kin in the eyes of the law; she is a ward of the Council."I didn't sit. I didn't even acknowledge the chair they had placed for me
Chapter 67: The Corrupted Sister
"If her heart stops, this entire mountain becomes her tomb. And if I stop running, it becomes mine. Keep the pace, Luo Bing! We don’t have a second to waste!"The subterranean levels of CERN were no longer a laboratory; they were a meat grinder of screaming steel and collapsing concrete. The particle stream had fractured, sending arcs of raw, violet lightning dancing across the ceiling. Every time a bolt hit, the air ionized, smelling of burnt ozone and ancient death.I had Jiang Mei thrown over my shoulder. Her body was rigid, vibrating with a frequency that threatened to shake her bones apart. The "Blue Qi" the Syndicate had pumped into her wasn't just energy—it was a parasite, a sentient toxin that was currently trying to rewrite her genetic code into a permanent weaponized state."Sir! The structural integrity of Sector 4 is at zero!" Luo Bing shouted, leaping over a fissure that had opened in the floor. "The sinkhole is chasing us!""Don't look back!" I roared.I didn't stop runn
