As the US Army General had confirmed, the phenomenal sight was transpiring near Southern China at the Hong Kong island known as Kowloon.
There were a number of high rise buildings, with the city being one of the world’s mogul of tallest sky scrapers that were mainly office, residential and financial.
It was just past three A.M. in Hong Kong. Twelve hours ahead of Arlington and New York where the Pentagon and the UN world leaders were watching from respectively.
The structure that resembled a pillar of lightning was then letting out a hollow sound that intermingled with the sparkling and electrifying static that was evidence of the white lightning flashes.
The Air Force was just several fe
RIO T H E G O D O F speed was spectacularly remarkable as he worked his way around the entire rock bed that surrounded the white towering statue that had just lost one of its arms. It had grown gradually dark which only added to the degree of foulness and loss of human life that had just occurred barely moments ago. Despite having used his speed to cut through the horde of monsters and whisking terrified tourists to safety miles away from the mountain repeatedly, Hermes was devastated at how many more people had died. He could see the shimmering blood-splattered floor; the limbs; the guts. These creatures were completely devoid of humanity and only wreaked of death.  
“A T L A N T A C I T Y; T H E place that has come to be christened as ‘ground zero’ for the planet Earth,” Henry was saying in his most perfect English accent, “and unfortunately it appears to be paying homage to that right now as—” Cassie jabbed him in the shoulder. “Gee, thanks for the sadistic insight!” Henry rubbed his shoulder and frowned at Cassie. Lucas stared at the monitor and Henry, despite being the most annoying person on the planet like ever, was right. Atlanta has been on the radar ever since the first invasion back in 2007 when Lucas or any of the people present in the room had not even been born yet. Then there was 2010—the more infamous one termed as the Berserker Apocalypse (Berserkalypse). Then back in 2028 and now the one that was just happening right outside. Henry had called them to come take a look at the monitor after Sally the

The man then quickly began to undo his parachute bag when he sat up and gasped after seeing hundreds of creatures coming at him from the same energy mass he had just sprung out of. He fumbled with the straps. Shit! They had been intertwined. The creatures roared as they charged at full speed. There were so many of them, coming out from different energy masses. Come on! The straps were tightly locked into each other. He turned to look at the creatures that were then only a foot away. Having run out of options, the man frantically raised his arms over his head and awaited to be stampeded by hordes of ali
T H E S K I E S H A D lit up with the colors of blood. Celestial blood. Blood that had been shed following the Titanomachy or as the gods would most commonly identify it — the first Ultimate Speedverse war. The great cosmic battle saw the fall of many a powerful Celestials as they tore each other apart trying to acquire the three entities that made up the cosmos—the three Heralds of the Ultimate Speedverse. Of the trio, the most potent and most coveted Herald—Reign—had been too solemn of an entity for a Celestial to just take and wield which was why it got easily lost throughout the great battle. Hurtling at incredible speeds exceeding that of light itself, the entity was cruising through the cosmos until its immense power had led to the creation of a singularity. The singularity fed from the voluminous amounts of energy dissipated by the entity until it had grown so massive
T H E M A D A M S E C R E T A R Y’ S eyes widened when she saw the sparkling flashes of lightning coming at her.Both her and the Director ducked in opposite directions just before she felt the strong gust of wind hit her in the face, causing a few strands of her cropped hair to dance over her head.Following the lightning flashes, Courtney watched them move so fast as they darted from one point of the NASA base to another.She could make out three distinct sets of color from the flashes: green, blue and white. The white flashes seemed to be moving exceptionally faster than the green and blue.Viper powerfully thrust her arms up and down across her chest, cutting through the air and was sure she was clocking at her highest speed, moving close to twenty times faster than the speed of sound as she hurtled through the Kennedy Space Center.Her spe
"A N Y S I G N O F them yet?" asked a bolting Diana Roberts after she had just come from ripping apart a creature with a lightning bolt to its hairy core."Can't see them anywhere!" responded Spartan who blasted the ground with a bolt of lightning and sent a couple of creatures sprawling.They were still at Piedmont Park battling with the creatures that they had then learned were known as 'Amaroks' after the goddess had called them from their stationary state earlier on.Jenna had informed everyone about Lucas's and Viper's emergency trip to Florida when Elektris had gone after them before being followed by Hermes later on.The Amaroks had started to spread outside the park just as Captain Susan Claire's police unit came around to help. She had alighted the Osiris supersonic aircraft alongside Detective Brian Pierce and Mayor Andrews leaving pilot Carter to steer the craft bac

Of course he remembered them.Stheno and Euryale, the daughters of the Celestials Keto and Phorcys.There had actually been three of them.“You’ll pay for what you did to Medusssa!” Stheno hissed at him and a thin forked tongue slid through her tiny sharp teeth.“You brought that upon yourself,” Hermes evenly responded.This sort of personal grudge actually had its origins dating back to the first Ultimate Speedverse battle, the one that took place back on Hermes’s and the rest of the gods’
T H E A I R W A S calm, with a light gale blowing across a chain of green hills and descending to a cool flowing spring, causing the leaves of trees alongside it to flutter. A few leaves fell to the grass covered ground where a cow was busy feeding on it.The sky was partly cloudy and the midday sun could be seen with its bright yellow rays penetrating through the whiteness.Back on the ground, the fallen leaves began to stir and so did the grass.The air around it suddenly felt disturbed and the cow, with its black and white fur, sensed this and began to move away from that area.The disturbance increased up to a point that the leaves were then levitating and swirling wildly as if an invisible twister had just formed up.They swirled faster and faster, picking up speed until something stranger began to manifest.Right in the middle of th
