Chapter 503
Thirty wild men charged at Jonah. They raised rusty machetes, wooden clubs with sharp nails, and heavy axes. They ran with crazy, hungry speed. Jonah did not wait for them. "Open the gates!" Jonah roared toward the Sanctuary. Inside the camp, Lisa heard the giant’s voice. She was sitting in her wheelchair near the doors. "It's Jonah!" Lisa cried out. "He is outside! Open the gates right now!" Elena and Marcus grabbed the heavy iron bars. They pulled with all their strength. SCREEECH! The heavy steel gates swung wide open. The remaining seventy marauders cheered. They thought they had broken the doors. They turned to rush into the camp to slaughter the women and children. But they did not find terrified victims. They found the Heavy Vanguard. Fifty survivors stood inside the gates. They were not holding useless, frozen guns. They were holding the brutal, heavy, custom-made melee weapons Jonah had forged in the fire. They held massive iron maces, thick steel pipes with gears
Chapter 502
The whiteout blizzard was screaming. WHOOOOOOSH! Jonah and Kevin ran through the deep, freezing snow. They were moving incredibly fast. Kevin’s body was completely different now. The magical System had initialized in his blood. His broken shoulder was fully healed. His cracked ribs did not hurt at all. His new Agility stat was very high. He did not sink into the deep snow like a normal man. He moved lightly, jumping over the thick white powder like a fast, silent ghost. Jonah ran right behind his son. Jonah did not have the System anymore. He was just a giant human man. He pushed through the snow using his massive, raw muscles. His breath came out in thick white clouds. Haaah... Haaah... "Dad! Stop!" Kevin yelled suddenly. Kevin froze in the middle of the dark pine forest. He held his iron mace tightly. He pointed his good left hand at the ground. Jonah stopped. He breathed heavily. He looked at the snow. To Jonah, the snow was just flat and white. "What do you see, Scout?" Jona

"The initialization burst," Jonah nodded, understanding the magic. "When you first connect to the System, it gives you a massive, one-time burst of pure healing energy to stabilize your body. It fixed your dislocated shoulder. It fixed your broken ribs." Kevin touched his chest. The sharp, stabbing pain he had felt for three days was completely gone. He took a huge, deep breath of the freezing air. His lungs expanded fully. It felt wonderful. He was fully healed. He was faster. He was sharper. Kevin looked at the blue screen in his mind. He finally saw the flashing quest box. [NEW OBJECTIVE GENERATED:][LOCATE AND RESCUE CAPTURED ALLIES.] The joy of healing instantly vanished from Kevin’s face. He remembered Gage. He remembered Sam and Ben. "Dad," Kevin said urgently. He jumped up to his feet. He picked up his custom-made iron mace from the snow. He held it comfortably in his newly healed right hand. "The raiders. They took Gage and the others. They tied them up and dragged them
Chapter 500
Jonah felt a terrible, crushing weight of guilt settling over his own soul. It was the sins of the father. Jonah had carried the System for years. He had fought the virus. Because he was connected to the machine, the dormant, sleeping computer code was passed down in his blood to his child. The genetic resonance. Kevin was infected with the magic because of Jonah. And Kevin killing a living man was the violent trigger that woke the machine up. "I cursed you, Kevin," Jonah whispered, tears filling his own dark brown eyes. "I brought this machine into your life. I am so sorry." Kevin slowly pulled his head back. He looked up at his father. His face was a mess of tears and blood. "No, Dad," Kevin sniffled. He shook his head. "You did not curse me. The world cursed us. You just taught me how to survive." Kevin looked back at the dead raider. He swallowed hard. The sight of the dead man made him sick. "But Dad... I took his life," Kevin whispered. "I feel like a monster. I feel like P
Chapter 499
The whiteout blizzard was a screaming wall of ice and snow. WHOOOOOOSH! The cold wind roared like an angry beast. It pushed against Jonah’s broad chest. It tried to knock the giant man down. But Jonah did not stop. He ran through the waist-deep snow. His heavy boots smashed the freezing powder. Crunch! Smash! Jonah was not using the magical System. He was not glowing with silver light. He was just a human father running on pure, desperate panic. He followed the broken trail. He saw the deep trench Kevin and the other survivors had made earlier. He followed the trench toward the frozen river. "Kevin!" Jonah roared. His deep voice fought the howling wind. "Kevin!" No one answered. The world was completely white and empty. Jonah reached the frozen river. The ice was thick and clear. He saw the small wooden sled sitting alone in the snow. He saw the heavy blocks of chopped ice. And then, Jonah saw the blood. There was a massive, dark red puddle of blood on the white snow near the

Kevin stared in absolute, paralyzing shock as he read the words. [CRITERIA MET.] The text paused for a second. Then, more words appeared rapidly. [HUMAN BLOOD SPILLED IN DEFENSE OF PACK.] Kevin gasped. He looked down at his bloody hands. The machine knew what he had just done. The machine had watched him drive the rusty rebar through the raider's throat. [GENETIC SYSTEM RESONANCE DETECTED.] "Genetic resonance?" Kevin whispered, his voice trembling. The machine was reading his DNA. It recognized his blood. It recognized who his father was. Jonah was the greatest host the System had ever known. Jonah had broken the rules of the world. Jonah had unlocked Mythic skills. Because Kevin was Jonah’s son, the dormant, invisible seeds of the System were already hiding inside his blood, waiting for a trigger to wake them up. Killing a living human being to protect his friends was the trigger. The final, terrifying message flashed across the blue screen in large, bold letters. [HOST '
