Chapter 505
The howling wind blew violently against the thick concrete walls. WHOOOOOOSH! The whiteout blizzard was a screaming, freezing nightmare. But inside the Sanctuary building, the air was warm. The pure blue light from the Echo Seed outside shined through the small, dirty windows. Jonah walked through the heavy metal doorway. He held a thick, rough rope in his giant, scarred hand. He pulled the rope hard. A massive man fell through the doorway and crashed onto the hard concrete floor. THUD. It was the leader of the marauders. The man wore thick, dirty brown bear furs. His face was painted with black ash, but the ash was smeared with sweat and dark red blood. Kevin’s steel-tipped arrow was still stuck deep inside the man’s right arm. The man groaned loudly, grabbing his wounded arm. Jonah kicked the heavy metal door shut. CLANG. He locked it tight, shutting out the screaming storm. The room was quiet. Only the crackle of a small fire in a metal barrel broke the silence. Pop. Hiss.

Kevin did not guess the wind. His System instantly calculated the distance, the speed of the wind, and the drop of the arrow. A tiny, glowing blue dot appeared in Kevin’s vision, showing him exactly where to aim. Kevin let go of the string. TWANG! The arrow shot through the cold air with terrifying speed. It flew over the heads of the survivors. It cut through the falling snow. THUCK! The arrow hit the running raider perfectly in the back of the knee. "GAAAAH!" the raider screamed. His leg gave out. He crashed face-first into the deep snow, unable to run another step. Kevin did not smile. He did not celebrate. He was a protector now. His hands moved in a total, beautiful blur of speed. His Agility stat made him incredibly fast. He reached over his shoulder. He pulled another arrow from his quiver. He knocked it. He pulled. He fired. TWANG! THUCK! Another raider fell to the ground, his foot pinned to the dirt by a steel-tipped arrow. TWANG! THUCK! TWANG! THUCK! Kevin rained
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
