Chapter 20: Entering Atlantis

Each of those submarines was shaped like a bullet on the outside, while the inside was closer to a very narrow but long elevator. However, rather than a fragile window, there were simply cameras on the outer hull, which had their displays projected onto the ceiling, walls and floor. Continue reading

Chapter 19: Evacuation

Fortunately, before the hospital spontaneously self-destructed, most of the patients, staff, and ‘guests’ within the building were evacuated to the ‘emergency shelter’. Rather than straight downward, the elevators in the basement were actually situated at a thirty-degree angle. Continue reading

Chapter 17: The Brain-Dead Immortal

“You’re certain he’s brain-dead?” An old man with wrinkles all over his face and dark-tan skin, was playing with his pure-white fumanchu moustache and staring at the beautiful doctor who was standing before him. He casually sat down upon his office chair and gazed out the window at the dark clouds in the sky. In Miami, thunderstorms were fairly common and could be easily disregarded, but hurricanes tended to be much more troublesome. Continue reading

Chapter 16: Hospitalization

Isabelle Krishna wasn’t the best neurosurgeon in the world, but she was certainly very close. However, she had an ‘unfair’ advantage over normal humans, because she was a Psycher. Continue reading

They were able to absorb mana or Qi from the earth and air pretty easily, but I usually needed to wait a few days for them to build up a charge, before channeling it into my own body. Continue reading

Chapter 1: The First Century

One billion years isn’t really as long as it sounds, at least not when you’re a cultivator. You always hear about these amazing ‘geniuses’ who find some ridiculously overpowered ancient treasure or techniques, then use them to defeat enemies that were slightly stronger than themselves. Continue reading

Chapter 15: The Key to Salvation and Damnation

“Welp, I bet you’re glad we got you out of Dundalk now, huh? I always though Baltimore was a dump before, but this kind of puts things into perspective…” Luke, Iris, Kelsey and Lee were all sitting in a huge private movie theatre in the basement of their ‘secret base’. They were each reclining on a ‘personal’ leather sofa-chair and staring at a massive LCD screen. Continue reading

Chapter 14: The Chaos Magnet

Blood was leaking down the back of Michael’s old leather jacket, gushing out from a relatively small bullet-wound. That crimson liquid seemed to radiate an incredible and terrifying power that didn’t seem to belong on Earth. Continue reading
