"Even in oblivion, you all shall tremble at the demon that lies beyond..." --- Beaten, betrayed, discriminated against, and then sent into hell. Those were the words that defined Khan's life, if he ever bothered to think about it. In a cold world where the hearts of people surged in preparation for the next cataclysm that had the potential to wipe out the entire world, who had the time to care for a feeble, golden-haired anomaly with no memories of his first ten years? Sent away from the orphanage with the mission to end his life, fate was still not satisfied with punishing him enough. He found himself in front of a demon god who raised children into killing machines, known to complete every mission irrespective of the danger. Among a group of madmen, he was the maddest, given the name "The Hollow" due to his unfeeling attitude. But in essence, all he ever needed was a place he could call home and when his life flashed before his eyes and he awakened his memories, he embarked on that path. ----- "My origin might be ten thousand light-years away from Earth, but even if I have to walk on the corpses of a million to reach it, then so be it..." ----- But now he won't be walking this dark path alone: [Congratulations, the Host has successfully fused with the system.] [Congratulations, Host has awakened The Bio-Nanotech System!] -------- [Also Check Out My New Novel: Infinity Guardian System]
A leg slammed the lab's door knocking it off its hinges as shrill screams immediately broke out from the group of five scientists.
They all kept screaming due to the horror of the event playing in their minds but soon quieted down after waiting for five seconds of nothing happening and all raised their head, their gaze meeting a young man dressed in official clothing and with a suitcase in his hands.
"Get out of your here..." That was the last words they heard before he disappeared and the next moment...
BOOM!
BOOM!
BANG!
The sound of collisions shook the entire floor.
-- -- --
A long pointy tongue rapidly pierced forward with speed emerging from a mutant beast with the strange physique of a dog but with the head of a frog.
In the line of the projectile was a young man with a suitcase in hand. Even though the projectile was heading towards him faster than the human eyes could track, he easily sidestepped, effectively dodging the projectile.
Faster than a bullet, the beast repeatedly flicked its tongue towards him causing huge holes to appear in the walls surrounding the place as the young man seemed to have become one with the wind easily avoiding all the attacks without much of a change in his expression.
Khan finally arrived in front of the strange beast which quickly retracted its tongue before pouncing on him, but he immediately jumped upwards into the air avoiding the collision before delivering a powerful stump at the beast's head from above.
BAM
Green blood and brain juices splattered across the entire ground as Khan slowly walked towards the door on the side, opening it.
"You all should get out of here..." He said emotionlessly before moving towards the higher floors. The groups of 15 scientists immediately ran towards the exit at their fastest speed, noticing countless corpses of the mutant beasts badly strewn on the ground.
"Did he do this?..."
"What an otherworldly sight..."
-- -- --
The entire crowd gathered at the entrance of the gigantic structure as they noticed the scientist pouring out like a wave from the building.
Asking them the same question, they all replied they met with a young man in an official suit who told them to exit.
This caused quite a commotion as they tried to guess just what the origin of the young man who was thought to be a person seeking to pay a visit to the shadow realm quickly.
-- -- --
A gigantic bear-like beast was sent slamming through multiple walls finally coming to a stop with a gigantic hole in its chest area where the imprint of a foot could be seen.
"Fifth star rank stage beasts are truly troublesome..." Khan muttered with disgust looking at his arm which had an incredibly deep slash mark on it.
"Tch, this will take three days..." Khan muttered when suddenly his eyes widened as he remembered.
"Activate Regeneration..."
[Regeneration has been activated.]
[-20 core energy]
The golden panel appeared as Khan watched the injuries slowly close back up and within three seconds, his pale white skin was soon revealed again.
"Hmm, how convenient..." Khan replied satisfactorily when his Nanorunic eyes suddenly picked up on a flickering red object in the distance.
Immediately running towards that weak source of energy, he arrived before it as he deactivated his ability finally getting a natural look of the figure.
It was that of a blonde-haired woman, lying on the floor and an incredibly deep slash mark on her torso, oozing with blood and dark gases.
Her breath was layered and irregular, a sign that Khan knew all too well to be that of imminent death. But taking a good look at the woman, he discovered she looked the replica of the small girl screaming out for help except much older.
Kneeling beside her before proceeding to open the suitcase. Finally revealing the content of the strange case and it wasn't what anyone would have imagined.
It was a suitcase with a total of five spaces contained within.
Two of the spaces contained coldly gleaming curved daggers with red-black hilts, the shape of a skull in its middle. At the top of those were small glass bottles where strange green serum could be seen.
Khan immediately picked up one of the glass bottles containing the green serum and he popped it before opening the woman's mouth slightly and pouring it into her mouth.
There was no reaction at first but suddenly there were rapid heartbeats followed by rapid convulsions as Zeras watched the woman slowly come back to life, a groan of pain escaping her bloody lips.
The slash marks on her torso began oozing with even darker blood before it slowly began closing up, healing at a visible rate.
With a feat of cough, her eyes slowly opened, the sight of the bloody-shirted young man entering her vision.
"Where..."
"What?"
"Where is she...Where is Lisa?" The woman struggled to say as Khan raised an eyebrow.
"Do you mean that white-skinned blonde-haired girl?" He asked just to be sure.
"Yes. That's her, she's my daughter. Have you seen her..."
"Yes. She was the first to exit the building and was taken to the hospital. She's safe. But your injuries are worse, I believe it's time we get out of here..." Khan said as he slowly raised her.
"No, no, no wait...." The woman screamed out as Khan raised his eyebrows.
"Well, if you want to walk yourself then fine by me..."
"No, it's not that. There's still somebody, our base head. She's stuck in the room of the ultimate Mutant beast on the highest floor. Please help her out. She won't last much longer with the Night Werewolf..."
Khan's eyes narrowed as he looked at the upper floor before immediately running towards the stairs area.
"And please be careful, the Night Werewolf is at the 7th star rank stage."
"What!!!?" Khan screamed out in surprise but his back soon faded away from the sight of the lady who slowly moved out of the area and towards the exit.
-- -- --
The deafening beastly roar of a monstrosity rang out as it clawed forward, the air shrieking in pain as it was torn apart into two.
Aurelia quickly rolled on the ground avoiding the slash, as she rolled up from the ground and stretched her hands forward.
Hundreds of surgical knives present in the room slowly rose before drilling towards the wolf-like creature standing on its two powerful legs making it at a height of almost 2.2 meters
DING
DING
DING
The sharp objects immediately collided with the wolf who wasn't able to dodge in time but the sound heard wasn't exactly the most pleasant to Aurelia whose brows furrowed in slight worry as she looked at the result of her attack.
The majority of the surgical knives impaled the werewolf but they did little to no damage only causing some minor injury that didn't even show due to the thick fur while some of the knives bounced away from its body revealing its shocking defense.
The monstrosity's eyes grew even more red as it speedily advanced, its sharp claws tearing through the winds as they appeared instantly in front of Aurelia slicing towards her face but she also didn't stay still as she rapidly dodged to the best of her ability.
SLASH
SLASH
SLASH
Every slash sent sharp whistling sounds that created slight cuts on her body just from the sharpness of the claws brushing on her skin.
SLASH
Aurelia dodged a sharp slash to her face but her expression changed when the fury legs slammed on her stomach as her eyes widened to their absolute limit.
BOOOM
A figure slammed through the walls digging into them, before finally coming to a stop.
BLERRRRGGGGHHHH
Blood spilled out from Aurelia's mouth as she quickly tried standing up but soon fell down back on her knees.
'The power of that kick. It was like a moving train traveling with Mach 2 speed...'
GROWL
The Soul-chilling sound could be heard followed by the sound of the floor vibrating intensely as the monstrosity ran towards her with full speed, its claws leaving a black trail in the air as it appeared in front of her, immediately slashing towards her neck.
Aurelia's eyes widened to the limit as she felt the feeling, the one she had never felt before...
The Feeling Of Death.
'So this is how it ends. What a foolish way for the Mighty Princess Aurelia to go..." She thought with a mocking smile as she resigned herself to fate when suddenly he watched as a blade light flashed through her eyes and the monstrosity was sent reeling backward, while a figure slammed into her body as they were both sent flying into the wall.
KABOOM
