City Of Heroes: Rebirth の小説・ストーリー

“I was going to send roses. But fire seemed more fitting.” The feed glitched briefly, then returned. “You burned down my sanctuaries. Killed my agents. Stole my network. Now I offer you an invitation.” Behind him, shadows moved. Other men, silent. Faces masked in crimson. Donatello continued, voice low and steady. “Seventy-two hours from now, the world will bleed again. We call it the Red Reaping. A global relaunch. New routes. Old names reborn. Every girl we lost will be replaced. Every city you touched, repaid.”

My breath hitched. That voice. Alexander. The camera shifted, revealing him seated in a dimly lit room, his face shadowed, but unmistakable. “You’ll have questions. You deserve them. But first you have to survive long enough to hear the answers. Rebirth was never just a project. It was a contingency. A way to cheat death. And we weren’t supposed to be part of it.” Static again. Kara lowered her voice. “That’s all we could recover. The rest was corrupted.”

city—the original human world that Silas had never seen. And from the air, a voice that sounded exactly like the "First Alpha’s"—but coming from a million years in the past—began to speak. "The 'Re-founding' was the 'Trojan Horse', Genesis. You haven't escaped the Gallery. You've just 'Infected' the Real World with the 'Eclipse of the Dead'." And outside the window, the human city began to howl.

But beneath the manufactured sorrow, I felt the glitch. I knelt at the base of the spire, tracing the sharp, deep letters etched into the plinth. No name was carved here. In Rebirth City, if the Alpha rejects you, the system scrubs your identity. You aren't a person; you’re an unassigned variable. AUGUST 14TH.

“You’re going for walks out of time, Anita. If Rebirth launches, the whole thing you’ve fought for could be erased.” Ethan fired some other shots, taking down the remaining shield. “Whatever you’re doing, do it faster!” Rachel unexpectedly froze, her eyes widening. “I can’t forestall the release .” “What?” I gasped. She grew to become me, her face pale. “The simplest manner to forestall Rebirth is to damage the servers. Now.” Ethan grabbed an explosive price from his bag. “Then permit ’s blow it to hell.” As he set the price, the countdown reached 00:01:00, and I found out that the whole thing —our combat, our survival, and the truth— could come right all the way down to those very last seco

After all, I had no dignity in our previous life. Since then, I had experienced death and had long since come to terms with reality. In my past life, I was obsessed with him and believed him to be the best. I was willing to die for him, but I ended up drowning alone, despite my selfless dedication. Now that I was reborn, I sought neither revenge nor love. I simply wanted to enjoy the rest of my life in peace. Thalyx still refused to let me be. He wanted me to love him and tolerate him loving someone else.

Earlier in the day, after I had discovered my new powers, I had decided that I wasn’t going to use my powers unless I urgently needed to. That was not a situation where I needed to use my powers, but I would be lying if I said it wasn’t satisfying to see Sarah fall face down on the floor. It was reckless, but watching her expression crumble in pain had been worth every risk I had taken. In my past life, she had watched with a smirk on her face while Ethan burned me to a crisp. I was not about to do something so extreme, but I also wasn’t about to go easy on her.

my father spoke loudly. The crowd roared in response. The cheers gradually died down and were replaced by silence as he continued, "I know you're all excited, and I am too. And I won't make you wait any longer. Then, ladies and gentlemen, let's give our green warrior a fantastic welcome. The gem of the Black Eye Forest, the child of the Black Eye Mother, Andrew Hasson!" Immediately, the whole area shook, quite literally. The arena's floor cracked open, and massive green vines slithered out from the ground, rising like giant snakes.

But as I looked closely, I could see them watching us carefully. ‘There..no..we are trapped in here. There is no way we could get past them.’ I gulped in some air, as the one with the horizontal plume began to speak. “Welcome to the Makedon Empire. You visitors have been as some of you are no doubt aware have been enslaved by us. The lawful subjects of his Imperial Highness, Emperor Alexander IV. We are members of the Imperial central army, V Legion. You are now soldiers in the newly formed slave corps. Your job is simple. Attack and kill what we tell you to. However, for you the Imperial Emperor has given you all one divine blessing. If you fight and win ten battles. You will no longer be s

Rebecca moved to intercept Derek. "Me." Derek smiled. "I am not just Derek anymore. I am a hive node. Connected to seven other resurrections X created. Seven other dead people he brought back and weaponized. We are networked. When one of us learns something, we all know it. When one of us dies—" he tapped his head, "—the others get stronger. Absorb the data. Become more efficient." "That is impossible—"
