Constantine had just sent a two-meter tall flying with a strike of his fist, causing it to fly back more than five meters before exploding into a cloud of dust and sand.
Cough! Cough!
After defeating the last of the dooms in the sandstorm, Constantine sat down weakly on the heavy sand, coughing. There was a thick layer of sand and dust all over Constantine's body, causing him to appear dirty. His hair was largely disheveled and his entire being looked wildly unkempt.
Constantine looked all over himself as he tried to remove the sand and dust stuck on him his body. He felt very uncomfortable when he felt sand in his nether regions and in other places that were very difficult to clean up.
Fortunately, Constantine was glad that he was not covered in sweat despite all the extreme movements he had just finished making. It was because all the sweat produced by his body was evaporated that it was like this. If not for the stand sticking all over his

"Dooms are elemental life-forms," Ruger said."Really?" Constantine asked in surprise."Is that true? You're not just messing with me, are you?" he said to Ruger suspiciously."And why would I want to do that?" Ruger asked in return, puzzled."It's not like it would change otherwise. These creatures of elemental life forms, no matter what I say.""But why are they different from the elemental life forms I have heard about? " Constantine was still confused. He didn't think Ruger would lie to him because, as he said, there was no need for him to do that.Constantine continued, "I remember that elemental life forms do not have physical bodies. Their bodies are usually made up of energy bodies fashioned after specific types of elements and they are generally immune to physical damage. Although when elemental life forms are killed, they also dissipate without leaving any corpses just like these dooms, they usually drop something like an elemental
BROTHERS TOGETHER: US AGAINST DOOM Mysterious Dooms
The sound of wind blowing across the barren desert and fine sand moving along with its movement was the only sound that could be heard as Constantine sat down in silence while contemplating Ruger's words.Constantine had to agree that Ruger did make a lot of sense...Normally, there were not many people who were obstinate and foolhardy when it came to their own views. But every once in a while, you would actually meet some people that were just like that.These people felt their own views and perspectives were right and correct when they were actually just wrong, but they were just too stubborn to admit it.Just like the example Ruger gave, about how people said there were no red apples and only green ones just because red apples were a result of artificial cultivation so they couldn't be considered real apples...Would anybody actually believe that there was somebody who had this kind of belief and refused to be convinced otherwise?There w
BROTHERS TOGETHER: US AGAINST DOOM Ruger's Hypothetical Scenarios
"How?" Constantine did not know the answer, so he didn't waste brain cells coming up with one and asked Ruger directly. "Beats me if I know!" was Ruger's timely reply. "But I couldn't help noticing something interesting. I don't know if you would be curious to know what it was." Sigh! Constantine was exasperated. Ruger was clearly baiting him into asking questions, but he had no choice but to bite and ask. "Oh no, what could be so interesting? Please, don't hold back, do tell!" Constantine asked sarcastically. "Che! you're no fun at all," Ruger said, displeased. "Very, let me tell you..." "You've probably not noticed by now, but do you know what the sand you're sitting on is actually composed of?" As soon as Constantine heard this question, he knew something was wrong... Every time Ruger started a sentence with a word noticed in it, there was usually some kind of profound information coming out o
BROTHERS TOGETHER: US AGAINST DOOM Solution To Ruger's Hypothesis
In Ruger's hypothetical scenario, there were four assumptions. Each pointing at different limitations in a hypothetical world. Constantine tried his best to answer Ruger's question based on the assumptions he had made. He first thought about what kind of limitations existed in each assumption before he even considered thinking of coming up with a solution. This way, by recognizing the problems, he could better come up with a solution.The first assumption was that the hypothetical world has a fixed total amount of energy meant to ensure the survival of itself and the creatures inhabiting the world. The entire assumption had already pointed out a serious problem which was having a fixed amount of resources with virtually limited ways of renewing said energy.This kind of scenario is called a dead-end scenario in most cases, where the outcome could already be determined from the beginning. If the world did not find ways to replenish its lost energy, then the only outcome
BROTHERS TOGETHER: US AGAINST DOOM Origin Devouring
Why did Constantine come up with the idea of devouring other worlds?Well, the answer to that is simple... it is because in the memories he inherited from Ruger, while Constantine was trying to figure out a solution to the problem plaguing the hypothetical world, a memory suddenly sprang in his mind.In this memory, there were records of sentient worlds that had already developed a kind of will of their own and liked to invade other worlds in order to plunder the origin of other worlds and assimilate it into their own to make their own origins stronger.The origin of a world was a kind of base law that governed all the aspects of any world. It was what determined the kind of system of law, a world adopted in all facets of life and existence.Think of world origin as the source code of a world and by plundering the origin of another world you were actually stripping said a world of their sources code and using it to update and optimize your own source code
BROTHERS TOGETHER: US AGAINST DOOM Origin Devouring 2
After Constantine cleared his thoughts, he quickly turned to Ruger and asked him."Is the doom world trying to devour earth and fuse with its origin?"Without hesitation, Ruger answered, "Yes, that is indeed the case. I guess you got that answer from my memories, didn't you?""So it's true," Constantine ignored Ruger's last question as he mused. But he did not dwell on this discovery for a long before he started asking that troubled him the most."How exactly does this work? In what way is the doom world attempting to fuse with earth and how does it have anything to do with the nature of these dooms as elemental creatures that we were previously discussing?"These three questions were what troubled Constantine the most. Although he understood from Ruger's memories the concept of origin devouring, Constantine didn't know the exact process of how it is carried out.Constantine felt that as long as he could understand the process of the doom wo
BROTHERS TOGETHER: US AGAINST DOOM Origin Devouring 3
"So you're saying it's a bad thing that the earth is changing so much so quickly?" Constantine asked Ruger for clarification. "That is the case," Ruger confirmed. "As I said, it takes time for the laws of another world to be fully assimilated, especially when said laws are completely opposite from each other and share no similarities whatsoever. This is the case between earth and the doom world." "The laws of earth and the doom world are completely opposite from each other with little to no similarities at all. I won't say anything about some of the more obscure and difficult to understand and comprehend laws. Let us take the simple laws, for example." "Using earth as an example, there are no laws that support supernatural and extraordinary powers or abilities. In other words, there is no transcendent system in place on earth and no laws that govern such a system. Because of this, such systems have not developed on earth and it is likely that they wou
BROTHERS TOGETHER: US AGAINST DOOM Target For Extinction
"Earth and the dooms are both equally responsible for the speedy changes that are happening currently. The reason for this is that both play a vital part in the invasion of the otherworld." Ruger began his explanation."The relationship between planet earth and the doom world is that of defender and invader. The doom world is seeking to devour earth's origin and fuse with it to strengthen itself. Naturally, Earth will resist this invasion with all its might.""As I said before, the best way to invade and attempt to fuse with another world is for the invading world to pour its energy into the defending world and slowly influence and change the rules of the other world using its energy. As a defense mechanism, the world that is being invaded will attempt to expel this foreign energy so that it wouldn't affect it in any way. This is why the process is usually very slow.""Because the defending world tries to expel the foreign energy from itself, the invading world

Back to earth 2
With his forehead covered in a nervous sweat, the leader watched as the rift turned into a black dot in space before finally closing completely. As soon as the rift closed, the leader’s shoulders dropped heavily as he breathed a deep sigh of relief. He suddenly felt weak at this moment as the pressure he was feeling in his heart was liberated, making him feel like he would suddenly collapse on the floor. But his training prevented him from doing so. Without the heavy weight of the rift hanging over his head, the leader could finally relax and breathe easily. Taking a moment to regain his composure, the leader turned to captain Keith and reported. “Sir, the rift had finally been closed.”“Good,” captain Keith responded. He continued, “Station a few men to keep watch here and report anything that happens. We don’t want the rift being opened again from the other side. In a while, this place will be turned into a quarantined zone as we wait for the tech guys to arrive and give this p

Back To Earth
The leader hurried to close the rift, which consisted of detonating a set of small special grenades in the small room.On opposite sides of the rift, there were two tall pillar-like objects emitting pulsing light that shine on the dark rift. These two objects were spatial anchors... a kind of stabilizer that was used to maintain an open rift to prevent it from closed prematurely. Like I said before, natural rifts were more stable and could remain open for a very long time without closing. Instead of worrying about keeping a natural rift open, one would worry instead about getting it too close. On the other hand, an artificial rift was difficult to maintain, so stabilizers were needed to keep it open. Human research on space was very slow, and they hadn’t reached the point where they could open and close rifts in other worlds easily. The spatial anchors were a product of genius that had accidentally blossomed to fruition. It was with this anchor technology that the humans were confid

With one last look at Constantine, the leader finally stepped through the rift. In as much as he was reluctant to leave, the leader knew that staying would not help at all. Instead, it would bring more trouble to Constantine.Who told him to be weak and that he couldn’t lend his strength to Constantine?For that matter, whose fault was it that Earth was too weak to fight against the doom? There was nobody to blame, and they could only blame themselves. In any case, it wasn’t like the leader’s troubles were over. Waiting on the other side of the rift was a whole other set of problems that the leader would have to deal with...As soon as the leader came face to face with his superior. This was a man with the body of a giant. Standing at more than two meters tall, with large burly arms like the barrel of a tank, shoulders as broad as vinyl, and a hulking frame that towered over everybody else, dwarfing them in his shadow. This person was the superior officer in charge of the rescue miss

Wounded?
The leader’s face paled terribly when he saw the twenty-meter-tall doom still standing after taking that powerful lightning ball and coming out unfazed.He thought, ‘This is the end!’When the leader thought that he would be flattened, not meat paste in the next moment, his eyes opened wide in fear as he supported Constantine with his body.The leader's eyes were looking forward in a daze as he awaited his inevitable end. But after waiting for a few seconds, nothing happened. Shocked, the leader looked at the twenty-meter-tall doom in the distance, only to see that it was standing still without moving at all. Puzzled, the leader paid attention to it. That was when he noticed something he hadn’t done before. As the twenty-meter-tall doom stood silently in place, its dune-like body seemed to be loosening as sand flowed down to the desert continuously. Seeing this state, a single thought entered the leader’s mind...“It’s injured!”Once this thought entered his mind, the leader was ecs

Unfazed
The twenty-meter-tall doom finally revealed itself from underneath the sand. This was the first time the leader was seeing it and it was as shocking as he expected it to be. Figure-wise, the twenty-meter-tall doom was no different from the rest of the dooms. It still had the same dull red skin color that was like rust or dried blood and it possessed the same bloated body. All of these were common features of the creatures known as dooms. Still, compared to the other dooms, there were a few differences between them, the most obvious of which was the twenty-meter height that this menace stood. Another different feature was that, unlike the other dooms that possessed a perfect physical structure, the twenty-meter-tall doom seemed more like a mass of sand packed together in a single cluster. Its body was made up entirely of grains of sand that flowed constantly. The twenty-meter-tall doom was like a giant walking dune, with no fixed physical form except for the overall structure that

First Look At The Face Of Terror
Bzzt! Bzzt!A powerful ball of lightning floated inches above Constantine’s head, giving off buzzing sounds of electricity as it hung suspended in the air. A layer of sweat covered Constantine’s face as exhaustion threatened to send him to his knees. Constantine’s arms were like lead, heavy, and it took all of his willpower to keep them upright to support the lightning ball. Hu!Resisting the urge to wipe the sweat from his eyes, Constantine stared dead ahead at the threat coming his way. The lightning ball above him had a diameter of five meters and it had taken almost all his power to condense it. Its power was naturally great, and it carried a shocking mite that was enough to scare a ten-meter-tall doom into retreating. But despite this, Constantine was clear that his lightning ball was not enough to stop the menace that was targeting him. A twenty-meter-tall doom!This should be the strongest doom that any human had ever encountered. Nothing was known about this doom. Probably

Run? The soldiers didn’t need Constantine to tell them before they did so. The sheer commotion from what was coming was greater than anything they had ever seen before. Rich experience from exploring the doom world for a year had thought these hardened soldiers that when faced with the unknown... the best decision was always to run. Just as Constantine’s voice fell, the leader ordered his men, “All soldiers fall back to the rift immediately. Abandon everything else and fall back!”Following the leader’s orders, the soldiers quickly turned their backs on the dooms they were confronting and ran back to the rift as fast as possible. Immediately, it was chaos all over the desert. Not only were the soldiers trying to escape, but the dooms were also in a mess as their formation completely collapsed and they ran all over the place in a panic. The soldiers were surprised to see that the dooms seemed to be more panicked than they were. Normally in situations where people abandoned all resis

After breaking through the blockade of the ten-meter-tall dooms, Constantine continued speeding his way towards the rift. Along the way, he also encountered more fierce resistance. But it wasn't anything he couldn't handle.Dooms below four meters in height could not stop Constantine at all and while it was tough to deal with four-meter and five-meter-tall dooms, it wasn't as hard as passing through a blockade of ten-meter-tall dooms so it was a piece of cake for Constantine.There were a few ten-meter-tall dooms that tried to stop him. But they did not form a blockade like the previous dooms. then the blockade was formed by not less than five ten-meter-tall dooms gathered together in a line. Due to their large size and the fact that Constantine didn't want to waste time by going around them, those dooms were able to block Constantine's way forward.Thankfully, apart from them, the other ten-meter tall dooms Constantine encountered was only in teams of two or three... nothing Constant

Performing A Miraculous Feat
Ooouuu!Following a loud bellow, the ten-meter-tall dooms attacked. One of them shot its large hand forward like a boulder and slapped at Constantine, intending to crush him to bits.Bang!The blow came fast and suddenly and landed on the ground, causing a large explosion to erupt, blowing large clumps of sand everywhere like pellets of stray bullets.Although the dooms with their large and cumbersome bodies were not agile, they were able to instantaneously erupt with overwhelmingly crushing force in the blink of an eye. If one was not prepared, then they would be crushed to meat patty before they even knew it.Fortunately, Constantine was prepared. Before the doom could even land a hit on him, Constantine had already jumped out of harm's way, letting the doom's huge fist to land harmlessly on the ground.Constantine watched as the desert sand was split by the punch and a huge crater formed where he had previously been standing just a moment ago.Constantine's body chilled as he thoug
