Chapter 42Maverick looked at the water in the surroundings again and was troubled the more he looked at it. It was already almost at his knees and it was still rising drastically. He knew that if it was not checked, the city would be flooded in about two to three hours. They heard a scream from one of the buildings, just ahead of their own and they rushed out to see what was happening. They saw people running away frantically, those left to be evacuated. "the monsters are already coming out, you have to move now." Natasha said, as she saw what was happening. Just as she did, the other saw it as well. They could see sinuous movements behind the people screaming and running away. And they knew that whatever was underneath the water was a monster chasing the people yet to be evacuated. Skill Activated: Energy sensing. Maverick activated his skill so he could sense what was happening more accurately. He sensed several low level monsters charging towards the people running away and
Chapter 43"have you found the portal yet?" Natasha yelled as she spoke into the comms from the command centre near the area. She was agitated and angry, there had been no breakthrough so far and casualties kept increasing just like the level of the water on the city. "not …y..et ma'am, but we think we may have discovered where it is in the area."the broken voice of a man sounded from the speakers. It was fluctuating due to network interferences." I don't want you to think, I want you to find it. Just find it. How's the situation over there?" she yelled immediately with so much frustration."Yes ma'am, we're trying our best. The situation over here is….. very dire. We have lost 6 of the 10 boats we had come with. The helicopter numbers too have dwindled, the monsters just keep increasing and we are unable to fight back just as we should because of the disadvantage we have. We can not fight them effectively on their turf, they have terrain advantage over us. Honestly ma'am, it looks
Chapter 44There was a loud muffled sound and then an explosion that emanated from the bottom of the water. The spot in the water where it had originated from rose and collapsed immediately, causing a shockwave to travel omnidirectionally on the water body. The shockwave caused a sort of tidal wave and rocked the entire surface of the water and as well as disturbed the atmosphere slightly.The occurrence drew everyone's attention again, as they realised that it had come from the point where the portal was located under the sea."what's happening?" James asked curiously, as he looked around trying to figure out what happened. The sound occurred again, just like an explosion occurring at the bottom of the sea, sending the entire pressure of the explosion to the surface and upset it with a series of disastrous waves.The water had beCome unstable, the few boats left on the surface, rocked so much that it was harder for them to navigate or even stay afloat anymore."I don't know, but it
Chapter 45Talia gasped in surprise and worry as she saw Maverick jump out of his helicopter to fight the tentacle on TV. The visuals were not so clear because the camera was obviously recording from afar, but she could tell it was maverick."I feel so bad right now. Everyone is out there fighting and we are in here because of me."Sky hugged her slowly and rubbed her shoulder. "I feel the same way. But there's nothing particularly we can do right now other than stay here and watch. And besides and more worried about Jiren.'' When she mentioned Jiren she looked at the door, hoping he would come back. Jiren was hard headed, stubborn and hard to deal with, but this was the first time since she had joined the team that she was seeing him act that way. Theon was still looking at the television, he clenched his fists, obviously wishing that he was there helping too."yeah she's right. Even before we would get to that city to help, a lot of time would have gone by. We should just sit by
Chapter 46"Ladies and gentlemen, fellow viewers, what we are seeing right out is disastrous and getting out of hand even for our heroes to handle. This city that was once spotting a nice little lake can no longer be differentiated from an ocean, there is no more city just water where you see. Treacherous waters even because I was told monster piranhas were lurking around them." the media anchor announced as she was taking a look at the city that had now turned into an ocean and as well guiding the cameraman to show the view to the public watching online.There was water at every turn, just like an ocean. There were no more buildings, trees or land since Everything had been swallowed up by the moving water. "our heroes are struggling to keep up with the monsters they are fighting but they are at a heavy disadvantage, since they can not fight the full brute force of the sea. The monsters are using it to their advantage and giving our heroes no chance to breathe."She reported as the c
Chapter 47"are you okay?" "Sir, are you okay?"Maverick turned and then saw the medical personnel standing behind him and holding his shoulder. He had been lost in thought without taking notice of the surrounding again. He nodded to the person and then stood up. "I'm fine, I just need to rest.""Alright sir, you can go back home and rest now, it's over." the person said to him again. He just nodded and then walked away, towards the direction of the command centre, or where it used to be. But even as he walked, the thought of what just happened could not leave his head. He just kept thinking and then eventually he found a bench to sit down just so he could be alone with his thoughts once more. The place was already busy, different people had already come to provide relief for the injured, others to begin repair of damages and others to bury the dead. Sirens from different vehicles were blaring and they were all working accordingly.'if this s class did not show up, we would hav
Chapter 48 Jiren stepped out of the portal after several hours. He was covered in blood and bruises and his clothes were torn up in several places. Most of the blood on his body wasn't his, so other than the bruises and minor wounds on his body and his laboured breath, he was completely fine.He had an angry expression on his face as he came out of the portal. He was angry because he did not find what he was looking for in the portal, even though he had successfully killed all the monsters inside and had destroyed the energy core of the portal,so the portal will be closing any time soon.'That was almost like a waste of time. Other than the fact that I had to test my strength I'd have regretted going in there. Although, today I was able to prove something to myself, I can successfully clear a C class portal without issue.'The last part placed a sinister smile on his face, but it still did not help with the devilish look on his face. He walked away before anyone would come to invest
Chapter 49The chairman went to his office and Natasha followed after him. He sat down in his chair and took a glass of wine and slowly drank it to ease his nerves, Natasha just watched him drink the entire glass before she said something."what do you think this mission is that Dominus is prepping for?" She asked, but the chairman did not answer at first. Rather he asked her another irrelevant question causing her to raise an eyebrow. "Do you care for a glass?" "No I don't, atleast not now we have a lot of work to do." she answered him.He gave a soft laugh as he poured another glass for himself. "you do like to get right straight to work. I'm equally as clueless as you are right now. But whatever it is, it's definitely g9nna be big and not something we can handle on our own""that's true. I just wonder how he's gonna pick his team?" she asked "don't think about it, I'm sure he knows what to do."Natasha sighed "I really don't like dealing with these people." "here here, bu
