Chapter 29Maverick, Hermione and James arrive at the location of the energy core and just like the survivor had said, the hellhounds were all over the place. Many were snacking on the remains of the creatures they had killed and the others were either taking a nap or just resting.The place was an open field at the bottom of a mountain, there was a cave entrance on the mountain, but the energy core was outside, just at the entrance of the cave. "I count 21 of them, I sense the presence of another one inside the cave, a total of 22." James said as he scouted the place. "That seems easy, let's finish this and go home" Hermione said, with no epitome of fear. To her see didn't see the monsters as anything worth stressing over."wait, shouldn't we observe them for a while first. I mean, so we can be able to understand something about them at least." Maverick said, trying to stall. He had seen the class and knew that they were not gonna be as easy as the last ones, since they had eaten a
Chapter 30 Hermione breathed heavily as she drew her Katana from the ground, she had a few scratches and bruises but other than that she looked fine.She had managed to defeat all the hell hounds that had assaulted her. She looked around and saw the corpses of the hellhounds she had decapitated with her talent. There were all cut apart cleanly, nicely diced into cubes like a cutting machine had actually done the cutting.which was one of her talent's techniques and a sword skill, she had immediately eliminated all of them when she had an opportunity to do so.Her talents allowed her to cut almost everything with the right tool. Hence why she preferred using a Katana. She does not just cut, but she is able to project the slash to any distance she wants. That is, she can wave her sword here and something 10 metres away or more will be cut cleanly, like she was there cutting it. She is able to move the slashes she makes in the air, in a straight or curved path to any location of her ch
Chapter 31Maverick had blocked the sonic explosion with a force shield from his talent, but the power was still enough to drive him back and crash him to the ground forcefully. Before he could regain himself, the hound had sent the laser his way and his eyes widened in surprise, but he managed to roll out of it in the nick of time. However the explosion from the laser got to him since he was right within its range. James started firing at the hound but his bullets didn't seem to faze it, they were bouncing off the black aura that was around its skin,it was acting like a protective armour for the hound. James clicked his teeth in irritation as he saw that his attacks were not working and Then he threw his guns away since they were now useless. The hound opened its mouth and shot several sonic blasts at him but he was moving very fast and avoided them all, but still suffered some scratches from the explosions that came with them."Earth Cleaver slash"Hermione yelled from a distance,
Chapter 32Maverick, James and Hermione came out of the portal, looking all battered than when they had gone in. All their clothes were ripped apart and burnt out, the only solid piece of clothing they still had left was the armour like chest jacket they wore for added protection. Mavericks Was worse since one of his boots was missing. The moment they came out they found the two survivors receiving medical treatment and they were pleased to know that they will be alright. They took them in immediately to run tests just in case they had come across any foreign contaminants that may be harmful to mankind.Afterwards they entered their vehicle and drove back to the bureau facility to give their reports. On the way back, Hermione looked at Maverick and then smiled.."you did good today Maverick, I'm glad you did not die""Thanks. I'm glad we made it out alive too." Maverick said, as he relaxed on the chair, closing his eyes and then drifted off to sleep. James didn't really say anything
Chapter 33That night, Maverick had a nightmare and he jolted awake, sweating and panting. He looked at the time and saw that it was just 2am in the morning. He looked around and then sighed. He had dreamt that he watched his parents die again just the same way they had died before in his past life, and in the dream he could stop crying and blaming himself for their death. He woke up with the dame guilt hanging on his chest like it had actually happened. Maverick began thinking about how everything happened last time. Until he had died in his past life he was never able to discover just what led to his parents death, or what may have caused it. He doesn't know if it was caused by monsters or if they were poisoned. But he suspected that he was caused by monsters.After the portals opened in his last life, there were strange deaths and occurrences that humanity could not explain. Caused by the monsters that had escaped from their portals. He vividly remembered one occasion where a
Chapter 34 FIVE MONTHS LATER. Maverick and his team just came out of a portal after successfully claiming it. The moment they did, everyone around started clapping and cheering them up for the successful completion of the mission that otherwise seemed so difficult.Maverick smiled as he scratched the back of his head not really wanting the cheers, but it really felt good. Reminded him of how popular he was in his last life.Maverick remembered just how popular he had been in his past life and it made him nostalgic. The alpha team had become one of the most popular A class teams around because of their success rates when it comes to completing missions, but it still couldn't be compared to his previous life. It was so because the specialised team do not really get much credit for the missions they get, they are mostly the kind of people that operate behind the scenes, so the public do not really know so much of their exploits to even consider them to be people worth knowing. This po
Chapter 35 Maverick tried to sleep but he couldn't, he was tired from the last mission and needed the rest but it seemed something out there was out to make sure he didn't sleep.The alarm going off in the bureau had woken him up. "Sleeping in tHs place is always so impossible" he groaned as he rolled over and placed his pillow over his head to block off the blaring alarm.The alarm always goes off whenever they discover a new portal. Whenever a new portal is reported to have been opened, the alarms go off to alert every talented in the building so that they can go out and immediately close the portal.However Maverick didn't get up, since he was just coming back from a mission several houses ago and needed to rest to replenish his strength.****"What's happening?" Natasha asked, she knew what was happening but she just wanted an affirmation from the people working in the control room."A new portal has been reported to have opened in town, just in front of the main roads in town.
Chapter 36"We're number one again on the popularity list." Talia said to Jiren as they were in a vehicle on their way to their new mission."huh?" Jiren said as he looked at her, obviously lost in thought."I say we are number one again on the popularity list, our team." she said this time, waving her phone in his face to show him what the news said."oh, yes of course. Did you expect anything less?" He smiled. "not really but it's expected since we've been doing so well in all our missions lately" "Thanks to me that is." Jiren smirked. "oh please, you're invisible in the team""You jest, I am the success of our team. You know it." he bragged with confidence. "Okay, okay. Maybe you helped a little but don't flatter yourself." Talia said wanting to irk him more. But he just rolled his eyes and looked at the window And then he asked. "what do you expect from the mission today?""I dunno, they said it's a C class portal. We should be fine." Talia said, as she went back to pressing
Chapter 135Supremus pointed his metallic finger of his left arm at Maverick and immediately beam of energy shot out of it and was aimed at Maverick. The beam of energy was so strong and intense that it left a trail of destruction as it was heading for Maverick.Maverick remained calm, standing and watching with no visible expression on his face. He wasn't even bothered that the energy beam was heading straight for him. But just about half a metre to his position, the beam collided with an invisible force that shielded Maverick from the beam. The collision of the beam with the force resulted in an explosion that enveloped the entire place, owing to its destructive nature.Seconds later and the explosion cleared and Maverick will be seen unscathed. Not just himself now, but the other children that were on the ground.Maverick looked away from Supremus and then at the children who were besides him. He had also shielded them from the beam and explosion. He extended his energy towards th
Chapter 134"Ahhhhhh, it hurts. Maverick help" Alyssa yelled as the pain became unbearable for her and the others. They are still being held to the ground and pushed down by the force of great magnitude, created by Supremus.Supremus was just silent, having a satisfied look on his face as he watched the kids lay helplessly in pain. He saw that they would pass out soon enough and be crushed to squat in no time.Adrian was also surprised at the technological advancement of supremus, seeing how he had been able to harness and use the pure energy with his technology, even without being able to naturally use talents like the others. "Maverick, help" Alyssa struggled to cry out finally, as her eyes began Rolling into the back of her head, bones creaking and blood rolling out of her nose and ears. Maverick was still so consumed by anger from the black energy coursing through his body that he didn't think of anything else but to destroy the robot. But still, he heard her faintly and his att
Chapter 133."So it was you all along, lying to me?" Maverick said as he looked at Adrian with a frown on his face. "Yes, it was me. You were very gullible back then, I must admit." Adrian said with a soft smile.Maverick gritted his teeth in anger and then tried to break free of his restraints, but he was still so weak."You made me kill innocent people" Maverick verbally confronted him, still angry with the incident in the old world where he was compelled to slaughter the innocent villagers for telling him the truth. "I had no choice, you were poking around so much, so I did what I had to do." Adrian answered whilst continuing with what he was doing on the computer. Maverick gritted his teeth seeing no hint of remorse in both men. At this point, he was certain that they no longer had any bit of humanity left in them."I promise you, I'll get you for this and I'll kill you." Maverick swore. "I doubt that. Supremus, I'm ready. He's prepped and we can begin the procedure at any ti
Chapter 132."Wake up, Wake up" the children who had returned from trying to find a way out of the place began shaking the three that had been knocked out by the robot, trying to make them wake up. "We have to move before the robot or any other comes back to finish the job." the other said, helping one of them up.Alyssa groaned, feeling very exhausted because every bit of energy in her body had been drained. The other boy helped her up and then they reminisced on what happened. "They took Maverick" one of them said. "We have to go after them and save him." Alyssa added, struggling to get back up on her own as she was slowly recovering strength."I don't think we can take that robot on our own." one of the returnees lamented. "Were you able to find a way out?" Alyssa asked. "Yes, we overheard one of the armed men saying there's a shuttle on the roof. That will be our best method of escape at this point." he replied. "Then we have no choice but to still go up. Let's go"****The
chapter 131Maverick was being watched from one of the security cameras in the facility. The man who conversed with the system earlier was watching and he was perplexed and awed."Such potent light energy, I must have it." he exclaimed as he licked his lips."Now I see why this Maverick boy is very important. His energy will help us by leaps and bounds. I must have it. "He stood up from the chair he was sitting on and watched the holographic screen in front of him with so much interest. With a push of a button in his wristwatch he contacted the man behind the system persona."Adrian, throw in everything we have. Send in the recent models of the hunters. "he instructed. When Adrian, the man with the system persona heard it he objected at first. "Sir but…"But the man interrupted brashly. "Adrian, I am the boss here and do what I say. You can do away with the other blessed ones but we must have Maverick"He turned off the communication device and laughed. "It's been decades since m
Chapter 130.Even in the light that have momentarily enveloped the area and blinded the place, Maverick kept moving. He leapt to the roof and ran on it to get to the armed men. He could not see, but he could sense just very fine.The armed men kept shooting since there was nothing else they could do, they couldn't see and they couldn't just wait until they were able to see again.The lasers they were firing off was so powerful that it was able to easily penetrate through the metals on the ground and floor and doing significant damage.Maverick dropped in thier midst and punched the two behind the lead armed man, very hard. The punch sent them flying backwards since maverick used a lot of power for it. The third man realizing what was happening immediately aimed his gun at maverick and was about shooting him down but immediately the man was kicked in his face by the girl that had met Maverick before. The light receded and everyone could see again. The lead armed man saw that none of
Chapter 129."No no no, not again. It's happening again."Maverick exclaimed in horror as he held his head and shook it, trying to wake up from the dream if it was a dream. But after several attempts with no successful result, he just gave up and sat on the ground, distraught. His exclamation and behaviour surprised everyone else in the room, since they were somehow confused as to what was happening."What's happening?" one of them finally asked, looking at everyone and at Maverick so that he could find an answer. There were several mumbles but at the end there was no response, obviously because none of them knew what was happening. Then all eyes turned to Maverick who was folded like a ball on the ground, lamenting. "um hello? Sir?" a feminine voice spoke, talking Maverick.Maverick looked up and saw a girl looking at him, she was really among the group. She had blonde hair and was cute."Please do you know what is happening?" she asked him.Maverick remained silent as he looked a
Chapter 128. "When the time comes, hit him with everything you have. Do not miss." director Maxwell said to maverick. Them of them looked at each other and then nodded before they looked at Jiren who was already approaching them.Jiren was coming closer and then could sense the build up of energy from him again. Jiren's hands were getting cold as he prepared to use the same technique he used before, this time much stronger than he used before so that he would be able to kill them both. The monsters from his chest were already getting antsy and ready to devour more things, moving around Jiren in readiness. "Listen Maverick, he's most vulnerable when he does this technique, make sure you don't miss. I have seen what will happen should you fail, the world will be destroyed, do not fail."Maxwell said again.Maverick nodded after the director finished speaking. He wasn't sure what he was supposed to do, but he knows that whatever happens he must do something to kill Jiren.At the pr
Chapter 127"Just die Maverick" Jiren yelled as he punched Maverick on the cheek and the impact blasted Maverick away like a rocket.Jiren opened his mouth as wide as he could like he was about to roar, the moment he did so, he channelled all the energy in his body into his mouth and he screamed abruptly.By this time, Maverick was trying to get back his balance, the force of the punch he had received had damaged his jaw and caused him to start bleeding but he did not relent and was still willing to get back into the fight.Maverick's senses picked up large amounts of energy accumulating and when he looked at Jiren as he was being thrown back, he saw Jiren opening his mouth and the moment he did he saw him scream.The scream was followed by an emission of destructive black energy that ransacked th4 environment aimed straight at maverick. The energy cleared the already barren desert and blasted Maverick back into the city. Maverick felt his entire body burning as he was blasted by the
