"The chaos anchor. That's what Ouroboros wanted from Alcatraz. Not the girl—her power." Jack caught Haley before she hit the ground. His vision was fading, the corruption demanding its price. "It's over, Alpha." Charon advanced slowly. "You've exhausted yourself, your allies are broken, and in—" He checked his watch. "—eight minutes, the window for your beacon closes forever." Jack looked at Haley's unconscious face. At Marcus, barely standing. At the corridor behind him, where Katherine and Olivia waited. He made his choice.

“The corruption spell was perfectly calibrated. The problem wasn’t my magic, it was their bond. They’re stronger than anticipated.” “You SAID the healer would give us everything we needed!” “And she did. She gave us essence, access, timing—everything.” Ravenna’s smile was sharp. “She just didn’t account for Selene Duskbane being absolutely unhinged enough to absorb corruption magic directly. That was… unexpected.” “Unexpected.” Fenris laughed, bitter and harsh. “My entire strategy was built on that corruption working. On Dorian going feral and tearing his own pack apart. And now?”

**[WARNING: MULTIPLE-USER COLLISION]** **[INCONSISTENCY DETECTED]** **[RE-FORMATTING... ERROR]** **[ERROR]** **[ERROR]** The Zero-Point tower began to shake. Outside, the Ring of Ghosts fractured.

If he wants to see the glitch in his perfect world, I will show him exactly how much it's going to cost him to fix it. Valerius raises the watch, and in the reflection of the glass, I see it—a countdown, glowing in red pixels that shouldn't exist in a stable system. Protocol Zero. He mouths a single word, silent beneath the hum of the dying machines. *Begin.*

Paulina glanced at her crew, thankful for their support as they approached what could be a pivotal second for Project Nexus. Across the table sat Daniel Crowe, Horizon’s lead strategist. His confident demeanor changed into a match using a glint in his eye that hinted at something monumental. “Paulina,” Daniel started, standing to greet her with a corporate handshake. “I’ve been searching ahead to this meeting. We’ve been developing something I accept as true which will redefine sustainable energy. We call it Horizon X.” Elijah’s forehead furrowed barely as he exchanged a look with Paulina. Leila raised an eyebrow but remained silent, her skepticism clear.

Ethan's right-hand man came stumbling over, breathless. "It's over. Reid Corporation and Cole Group have been exposed for colluding to manipulate the market. Both companies are in financial and PR freefall. Every senior executive has been named in scandals, assault allegations, you name it. "And the worst of it: the Reids' ties to organized crime have been blown wide open. They've all been taken in." After I got out of prison, I found Gus and we got to work. Every tactic Ethan had used to destroy people, we turned back on him with interest.

Now a once-whole blue planet floated with just particles of itself as it drifted across this dark, lifeless plain. In a different plane lied a primordial creature of the night finding solace in the eternal night that plagued his castle, the whistle and Chimes of fate had stirred his old blood awake. He knew that times were finally changing, and it seemed he had to get back to the game.

Xiao Chuan slowed his breathing, he had just seen mountain ranges tipping over, rivers flowing in reverse, the earth sinking, the sun and moon splitting, and the stars falling. It was the last Annihilation Era, and he saw countless Immortal Kings falling, the world was collapsing and returning to a chaos, and in the chaos, he seemed to see a person slowly walking towards him. "Alright, leave this place." Looking at the endless dragon bones in the distance, Xiao Dust gazed and said. "Just leave? There are so many dragon bones here, if we can bring out some of them ......" A man beside Yang Qing looked at those dragon bones with unblinking eyes and said in a daze, "We must be rich ...... "

Charles was still stubbornly trapped in his delusions, and he screamed, "Just wait a little more! I have to be right, my superpower lets me see the future!" Having lost her trust in him, Iris shook her hand out of his grip and ran straight out the door. However, the weather outside had already become -94°F, and there was no more electricity and water, much less any transportation, so she had no choice but to return to the Dennings. Sipping another warm cup of milk tea, I activated my generator. Because of the weather, the surveillance footage was cut out more often than not, but I could tell what was going on at their place through the comments in real time.

CHAPTER 85 Camryn's POV Dawn broke over the corrupted landscape in shades of dark blood and copper rust. I watched it through the safehouse window while Miranda checked our supplies one last time.
