First Death.
The fact, alone that Peter somehow remembered the fat man and still did not outrightly kill him just shows how high Peter's intelligence has gotten and this gave Nate some hope that one day Peter will be able to talk and reason like a normal human being.
This was because Peter could have just killed the fat man on recognising him as one of those men that had worked for their father and had contributed to making the world a living hell for them. However, the former had thought of bringing the fat man back to Nate and then will they be able to decide on the fat man's fate.
However, Nate just initiated the fat man into his horde and this just raised a questioning look from the others including Peter himself who was just oddly looking at Nate, he was still having his skull face mask on with his scythe in his left hand, the mask had made it so that others couldn't see his facial expression and mood but Nate could tell that Peter was confused.
"Don't worry, he will be having a terrible death but first before that, he will have to deliver my message," Nate muttered to Peter then before looking at Twain. "You are good at marksmanship, right? I need you to shoot down a bird for men" Nate asked politely.
Just then, a sharp eagle cry was heard outside. "That's the bird I need" Nate demanded.

Meanwhile, the five matrix has not been in a good mood for some time now, they had continued with the base daily chores with them going out in groups looking for food and more.
Though they are in a bad mood, it doesn't mean they were not prepared for something new. The three, Mia, Red, and Purple had been going out constantly trying their best to find as much meteorite as they could.
Meteorite stone is now something they really need at this moment for Green to produce more rings and wristbands. At first, finding those stones was common but as time went by, it was becoming rare to see, however, a lot of meteorites has been accumulated in their base but the problem is that they have no access to any of them, even Green who seems to be an inside man could not get much from the ones in the base so they have decided to find more for themselves but not much has been found, only one stone so far and Red was the most annoyed at this moment.
"Where did they go to?!" He ranted. However, no response was given as everyone was focused on the floor. Though their normal work was to look for food and any other useful materials, however, right now, they had turned themselves into hunters.
Meanwhile, while Red was mumbling to himself, Mia spotted a sculpture from the distance, it was approaching them at a fast pace and soon it was close enough for them to see what it was.
As usual, they were on the road when the car came almost crashed into them but they were lucky enough to duke in time. After that, they all got up and looked at each other.
"You saw that right?" Mia inquired as he looked at Red and Purple.
"If it's Chubb you are talking about, yes I saw him" Purple replied.
Hearing this, a lot of confusion and questions were all filled up in Mia's mind as he looked in the direction of the car just gone through.
"But..., how is it possible? I thought he died in the fight and if he is alive, how are we not getting anything info about it?" Red was making it hard for Mia to think straight at this moment so he was scolded.
"Silence!" He yelled." I'm trying to think about this," he said as he put his hand on his chin. If he is still alive we should be getting some connections right or does this power have a time limit? I don't think so; if that was the case the skull would have told us, but why is he still alive and yet we can not feel a single connection, or did he manage to take the ring off?'
At the last thought, Mia could feel a shiver running down his spine. 'We are doomed if the last one was it,' Mia panicked as his facial expression changed dramatically.
Red and Purple noticed this and couldn't help but think of what would have made Mia's face change.
"Quick we need to go after that car else our plans will all be a waste, he said as he started running back to the base and the two also followed. While on the way he told them his thoughts on this case and just like him they all started panicking.
However, not long after, just a few meters away from the prison gate, they could see a cloud of people as they were all looking at a particular scene before them. Seeing this made Mia's heart shake slightly but he still find a way to chip himself into the cloud and was able to get a clear view of what was happening.

Chris was in his room taking out his stress on some beauties when he got a message that one person out of over a hundred or even close to two hundred people he sent out on a mission is back. On a normal, he will be angered by such an interruption, but on hearing the number that just came back, he could not wait to get explanations from the former.
He did not wait for the person to be brought to him instead he went up to meet the person and while doing so, he had gotten quite a lot of attention because it was rare to see the main boss of the base. However, none of this cared for him more than the answers he wanted from the person standing before him.
" What happened to the others and how come it's only you that came back?" Chris asked once and for all Chubb who looked up at him and said.
"They were too strong, a lot of support humans are with him and he kept me alive to this moment because he wants me to deliver a message to you," Chubb answered.
Chris was startled as he looks directly into Chubb's eye. Out of all the answers he was expecting this was never on the list however he still gestures for the fat man to continue.
"The message is simple"
[I'm coming for you]
Hearing this, Chris could feel the shivers running down his spine. It felt like they were something deep inside Chubb that said those words, but all Chris could see was Chubb still standing there as he laughed.
Meanwhile, someone else was not pleased with Chubb's report and unleashed his sword ready to slice the former head. However, Chris could feel the surge of energy suddenly gathering around Chubb and became alert.
"Skinny wait...!" He called out but it was too late because Skinny his best man had just swung his long sword at Chubb and at the same time, the energy busted out.
However, Chris was not able to call out Skinny in time but he was quick enough to grab the former on one hand as he retreated backwards but they were still sent frying over twenty meters by the shock wave of the explosion.
However, the remaining clouds were not able to make it including the three matrix.

[You have retaliated]
[Golden medal has been granted]
'Such an easy but rare way to get some reward' Nate muttered as he continued watching the scene before him.

Meanwhile, the three matrix could not believe their eyes at what just happened.
"Did we just die?" Mia could not believe it. Meanwhile, the other two were silent at this.
As if an emergency meeting was called the other two matrix, Kai and Green appeared in the room.
"What happened, I just felt a sharp pain just then," Kai asked as he walked to his sit.
Red quickly explained what happened to them and how it all happened.
Kai was left in shock and dazed as he could not believe his ear.
"Nate is more dangerous than we all anticipated and getting down would be hard than we think," Mia said.
Just after he said that the short television set lit up as the skull head appeared
< Greeting Matrix >
