Chapter 808
The ceiling was miles above them. The walls of the cavern were not made of dirt or gray rock. The walls were made of raw, pulsing, living bedrock interlaced with massive veins of pure, glowing blue crystal. The crystals were the size of tall buildings, jutting out of the stone like beautiful, sharp teeth. The air here was completely still. It was heavy with a power so absolute and ancient that Caster felt like he should fall to his knees and pray. But it was not the size of the cavern that made them freeze in horror. It was what floated in the exact center of the room. The Central Node. It was colossal. It was a massive, geometric crystal shaped like a perfect twenty-sided die. It was as large as the Sage Tower itself. It hovered in the air, floating a hundred feet off the ground, completely untethered to the floor or the ceiling. This was the engine of reality. This was the machine that held the blueprint of the universe. But the machine was breaking. The massive crystal was or

"And," Solon coughed, "I knew you would get stuck at the Sub-Crustal Seal. You are a genius, Caster, but you do not know the physical architecture of this building like I do."Solon reached into his heavy gray cloak. His shaking hands pulled out three small, dark gray stones. Caster’s eyes went wide. "Explosive alchemical shards.""I grabbed them from the armory before I jumped," Solon explained. He leaned heavily against Sikoa’s shoulder. "This iron floor is twenty feet thick. But it is not a solid piece. It is built in sections. If you place these three shards exactly on the locking joints, the explosion will push the center plate downward, dropping it into the core cavern."Solon pointed a bloody finger at the floor. "There," Solon said, pointing to a tiny, almost invisible seam in the metal. "Place one there. Place the second one exactly three feet to the left. Place the third one near the wall."Caster did not hesitate. He took the three dark gray stones. He moved quickly. He cr
Chapter 806
The war had returned, bloodier and more pointless than ever before. They were fighting over a bounty, completely blind to the fact that their fighting was feeding the dark dimensions. The more they killed each other, the faster the sky broke apart. Deep, deep below the screaming streets, the air was completely different. The noise from the war above sounded like muffled thunder. It vibrated through the solid stone, dropping thin layers of dust onto Caster Spellbound’s shoulders. Caster stood in a dark, incredibly hot, circular stone tunnel. Just ten minutes ago, he and Sikoa had jumped into the roaring red fire of the central shaft. They had expected to be burned alive by the planar friction. They had expected the heat to melt their bones. But they had survived. Caster’s golden magic had wrapped around them like a protective bubble. The magic acted as a shield against the tearing friction of the two dimensions rubbing together. They had fallen for miles, dropping straight down t
Chapter 805
Above the ruined capital city of Glassview, the sky was a terrible, bruised purple. The giant, swirling black storm of the Ash Void covered the horizon. But the darkness did not just come from the sky. It came from the earth. A massive cloud of brown dust and thick, black engine smoke rolled across the muddy Rift Plains. The armies had arrived. Just an hour ago, the soldiers of the Glassview Federation and the Crimson Alliance had been throwing their weapons away. They had listened to Caster Spellbound’s beautiful, peaceful broadcast. They had wanted to go home to their families. But fear and greed are powerful poisons. When Councilor Elara and General Rask broadcast their wicked lie, when they promised ten million gold pieces and a safe, hidden bunker to whoever killed the "Heretic." The peace instantly died. The soldiers picked their heavy weapons right back up. Now, the combined might of two massive empires was converging on the broken city. The ground shook.From the west,

The numbers were supposed to be counting down to the explosion of the central node. They had stopped at 01. But now, the numbers were glitching violently. 01... 99... 45... 01... 00... 88... The numbers flickered back and forth. The system was completely broken. The planar friction was paused, but it was incredibly unstable. It could explode at any second. Solon wiped the sweat from his pale face. "Caster jumped into the fire," Solon whispered to himself. "He is going to fix it. He has to fix it."Suddenly, Solon’s sharp eyes noticed something on the holographic map. He pushed his cracked glasses up his nose. He leaned closer to the glowing blue globe. "What is that?" Solon muttered. On the surface of the map, just outside the city of Glassview, the tiny red dots representing the soldiers were changing. Earlier, the red dots had faded away. They had turned gray when Caster made his beautiful speech for peace. The armies had stopped fighting. The magical energy feeding the earth

"Look at the sky!" Elara screamed, pointing upward in the broadcast. "Look at the monsters falling from the rifts! The Heretic did this! He is sitting at the center of the world right now, trying to open the final door to hell!"The camera zoomed in on Elara’s face. She looked desperate and pleading. "We must unite!" Elara begged the world. "Glassview and the Crimson Alliance are no longer enemies! We are one human race fighting for survival against a dark wizard!"Then, Elara played her master card. She knew exactly how to manipulate the hearts of terrified people. "The world is breaking," Elara said, her voice dropping to a smooth, convincing tone. "The Black Storm is spreading. But we have safe bunkers. We have deep, magical fortresses that the monsters cannot reach. We have enough food and clean water to last for a hundred years."She paused, letting the promise of safety hang in the air. "But these bunkers are reserved for heroes," Elara declared. Down on the battlefield, you
