The Apex Obelisk was more than thirty meters tall and the endless power contained within it was palpable.Adrian gazed at it and saw a glimmer of hope. He asked, "Have you been to the top of the monument, Rozi? Do you know what's up there?"The top of the Apex Obelisk was broad enough to house a few people. Wonder had surely left a way for others to retain their memories if he knew how everything would play out, so maybe there was something at the top of the monument. Meanwhile, Rozi was stunned. She had not thought of that before. She realized she had neglected a very important point."No, I’ve not been up there. I don't know what to expect at the top.""Excellent. The secret to everything might be up there. I'm going to go and take a look," Adrian said."Be careful, sir. We don't know what sort of dangers are up there. Don’t let your guard down," Oliver warned. “I won’t,” Adrian said, then asked Cian, "Do you have a rope?"Cian nodded and took out a rope and hook from his b

All of the pieces were coming together. Adrian finally made the connections after seeing the corpses and the stone with runes engraved onto it. "Rozi, you've recovered your memories, so were you the one who took the stone in the coffin?""Yes, I swapped the stone with a fake and took the real one. But my memory of what happened to it is blank. I can't remember where the real one is."Adrian smiled. The stone Rozi had switched out had ended up in his possession. This stone before him was similar to the one Mya found at St. Elmer's Church. At the time, he thought it was something his ancestors had forged, perhaps even containing extreme powers. The runes on the stone looked like human blood vessels. Although it was all only his assumption at the time, he could now prove both that and the stone before his eyes were similar. "I found that stone you lost, but it's not in my possession right now. It's in a locker back at Swallowston's Battle Warrior Department."Really? But I don't kn

Adrian nodded.Rozi then said, "It's getting late, and there's no need for us to stay here any longer. We should head back. We have to be extra careful. Those monsters at the palace will be waiting for us.” Everyone climbed down the Utopia Stairwell. Cian and the others were discussing what had happened throughout the journey, while Adrian and Rozi silently led the way. Rozi did not ask Adrian about what he had seen back at the lake, but his mind was filled with the image he had seen. The sky had been covered by a giant shadow, causing darkness to blanket the whole world. Moreover, the city had turned into a huge wasteland with monsters lurking about every corner. The surviving humans teamed up to try and find a way to retaliate as more of their kind died with each passing second.Most importantly, Adrian felt that the future he saw was not far from the present. "Is something on your mind?" Rozi asked when she noticed Adrian's expression. Adrian glanced at her and did not ans

None of them had ever imagined something so terrifying to happen. In less than ten days, half of the world's population had been purged while Adrian’s group was trapped in the palace. To make matters worse, the Creator had sent out his monsters to kill the remaining half of humanity.Everything was about to be reset, and the only silver lining throughout this tragedy was that Cian and the others had retained their memories. If they had lost their memories, there would be anyone alive who knew about the Creator. "Now that everything's happening earlier than we expected, we're going to have to team up to fight him if we want to survive. We’ll have to do it like the immortals of the past," Rozi said. She already knew that history was going to repeat itself, but she was not expecting for it to happen so soon. The group was thrown into despair and overwhelmed by fear.A young man said, "Sir, are my parents and siblings still alive? Half of the population has disappeared in the blink

Adrian got up and summoned Dragonbane in his right hand. At that moment, he possessed Dragonbane's powers, but he himself was not an immortal. He was not sure how long he would be able to last with just the sword.If Adrian truly wanted to stand a chance against the Creator, he needed to exceed his limits and become an immortal. However, he chose not to think about that for now since Dragonbane would suffice against these monsters. Adrian strode into the base, and the monsters immediately turned toward him upon detecting human scent. All eight of them let out a cry before rushing toward him in a maddened frenzy. One of them was a gorilla with extreme speed, letting out a loud yell and spitting out blood from its mouth. The monsters were charging in from different directions, but Adrian held Dragonbane up and yelled, "Bring it on!"Roar!The gorilla roared and swung at Adrian. Dragonbane let off a golden glow before piercing through the gorilla's stomach and slicing it in half. T
