The two monsters clashed in a perfect dance of strikes, claws, tails, bites and even headbutts. Clouds of lunar dust rose with their every movement and if an atmosphere had been present probably every time the two touched each other they would have generated shock waves so powerful as to destroy everything in the surroundings.

The robot was bigger, but it was slower. Sobek was smaller, but he was faster. This allowed the spinosaurus to overcome the mechanical monster's defense and strike it with its claws. In response, the blow left not a single scratch on the robot's body.

"Stupid! Did you think it would be that easy?” Wafner exclaimed as the robot kicked Sobek away. “This is the ultimate weapon, created to defeat you!”

Sobek looked at his paw. His claws were shaking slightly from the force of the blow. “What is that robot made of?” he growled.

“Of ordinary plastic. My scientists would have preferred to use titanium, b

    Sobek's body shrunk as he deactivated [Ultimate Mutation]; thanks to this, his head slipped off the robot's foot and the dinosaur was free again. Within seconds, a new arm replaced the severed one, the dorsal sail repaired itself, and all wounds vanished. The spinosaurus picked up his [Personal weapon] again.Wafner watched as he tried unsuccessfully to restart the robot, which still didn't move an inch. "What have you done?""Easy. You said this was a video game for you, right?” Sobek said. “Well, it was for me too. With the difference that I played two games instead of one"“What… what are you saying?”"Very simple. You must know that I can use up to three mutations at the same time… but so far, to face you, I have only used two. Why?"Wafner froze as he was struck by the revelation. “Did you do something to the robot!?”"Of course yes! I could never have won in a one-on-one battle against

    For a second, a mere instant, nothing happened; then, in the lunar sky, space warped and time seemed to stand still. A great dark sphere appeared, an immense void that devoured even the light of the Sun.A black hole had just appeared in the lunar sky.In an instant, the Moon's gravity disappeared. Sobek felt himself being pulled towards the dark sphere as everything around him began to rise and fall towards the black hole. The spinosaurus knew he had to act quickly, or he would be sucked up.[Selected Mutation: Gamma Mutation][Selected Mutation: Atomic Mutation][Selected Mutation: Supreme Mutation]His body swelled again, his muscles swelled and his veins glowed green. Using all of his strength to keep himself on the ground, he began to run. As he ran, he spat an atomic beam at the black hole.The only way to overcome a black hole's gravity was to counter it with speed. By running parallel to it using the more powerful muscles prov

    Wafner ripped the control interface from his head. The signal had been lost after the robot had been devoured by the black hole, but the emperor was more than sure that Sobek had gotten away with it. "Damn!" he roared. "How? How is it possible!?"He couldn't believe it. He had calculated everything, examined every logical alternative. He had made his scientists build the supreme weapon of destruction, created and studied specifically to kill that bastard dinosaur. How could it have ended like this?A black hole! A disgusting black hole! How could he imagine that? How could anyone guess that? The son of a bitch had kept his best attack under wraps so far!He was furious to say the least. In anger, he punched the console. The delicate hardware broke, but so did his knuckles.“Your Imperial Majesty!” one of his guards exclaimed. “Please calm down! You can't get hurt!"“Shut up, idiot!” Wafner roared. “That bastard i

    "Nero! We have a problem!"Alycia was busy decrypting a database when another RE/SYST member called her. "What happens?"“The Empire just started an absolute anti-hack program! They are denying us access!” that person exclaimed.Alycia looked at the various computers turned on in front of her. There were hundreds and hundreds of pieces of data constantly scrolling across the screens, and new ones were appearing every second. Alycia knew this was a veritable computer block being built around the Empire's server like armor.“If they've activated it now, something must be happening” she murmured. “Try to overcome the computer blockage! Use all the precautions we have taken to date! Immediately lock all nuclear launch codes!”RE/SYST had prepared for a defense by the Empire's computer network: during those months, they had established numerous backdoors that allowed them to access the main server of the military base

    As soon as General Dorn received the all clear message from the emperor, he immediately knew what to do. He immediately rang the muster and within minutes all the soldiers of that underground base gathered in the same room.These soldiers were the elite of the elite. They were warriors trained and indoctrinated in the harshest and most brutal ways. Fierce, ruthless, intelligent and with an absolute loyalty to the Empire. If the emperor had asked them to kill themselves, they would have done so without hesitation.These soldiers were like diamonds. Extremely rare and difficult to make and above all to maintain. Therefore, there were no more than ten thousand in the entire imperial army. Of these ten thousand, however, only five hundred had been selected for the task ahead, as they had demonstrated quicker adaptability and speed of thought.These soldiers were in fact the ones who were supposed to go to Davis and conquer the colony. Since this colony was not parti

    Living underground and deprived of all communication, Croft was unaware of either the clash between Sobek and Wafner on the Moon or of Wafner's intent to transfer a small part of the imperial population to Ares to recapture Eden at a later time; and even if he had known, he wouldn't have cared. All he needed to know at the moment was that the world was about to be destroyed by a madman and the even madder people following him.But Croft could avoid it. He just needed to be able to plug the USB stick into the base's main server. From there, Alycia could have made those hell bombs disappear forever.Evidently the general took his brooding as hesitation, so he tried to reassure him: “When you're done, you'll have to get ready to leave. You have been selected"Croft was surprised. “Selected for what?”"To survive. You will leave for Davis and there you will be assigned the position of engineer in charge of the terraforming project and the es

    On Davis, the few defenders were preparing for the attack they knew was coming. “So, do you understand everything?” Eema asked.The rest of the group nodded. “It's a risky plan” Jamie said. "But it's the only one we have available""I hate to admit it, but it is" Liam confirmed."Good" Blue said. “Remember, we have to make sure the colony isn't harmed. I don't know what is currently happening on Eden, but we have to assume that the worst-case scenario occurs. In that case, the colony will be the only hope for humans and animals to survive"The scientists and dinosaurs present nodded. As bad as it was to think so, they had to assume that all the countermeasures the dinosaurs were taking on Eden would fail and the planet would be destroyed. Had that happened, the colony would have been the lifeline for all of them. It couldn't house all of the human and animal population, but if it kept going some of them could escape there via

    "The moment has come! Let's notify Norm!” Jamie exclaimed. Blue deactivated [Ambush] and once she was visible again the girl raised a torch and turned it on. Since they couldn't scream because of the ultrasound (and even if they did they wouldn't be heard) and because of the electromagnetic pulse they couldn't use telecommunication devices, the simplest choice for fast communication was light.As soon as she glimpsed the flashlight in the distance, Norm knew it was time. The scientist was inside the colony's air conditioner, which controlled that the air didn't become too cold. Even with the glass dome capturing the sun's heat, Davis was still too cold to be bearable by humans, so the base was dotted with pipes carrying hot water that released steam to keep the temperature stable.However, controlling the temperature of the base in this way also had tactical advantages. Norm cranked up the heat, warming the air a few degrees every second. And if there was one rul

    Epilogue

    It took Sobek a few moments before he realized he was back in the room where it all began. That room where time and space ceased to exist, and where everything and nothing seemed to have changed at the same time. He already knew where he had to go; walking through the infinitely large (or perhaps infinitely small) room, in a few minutes (or perhaps a few centuries, who knows) he reached the familiar armchair on which was seated a woman with white skin and light hair.God didn't even seem to move since she sent him to Eden. Even her expression didn't seem to have changed at all. She was still the same, beautiful and terrible at the same time, whose gaze was both magnetic and loving on him. “Welcome back, son,” she greeted him in her crystal clear voice.Sobek advanced on her. This time there wasn't an armchair waiting for him, but a large mattress wide enough to allow him to lie down. She lay back on it and gazed intently at God. Even now, after he'd grown i

    Death of a legend

    On the continent of Maakanar, near a river that was once a typical spinosaurus nesting place, something immense could be seen. A huge creature was lying on its belly, but nevertheless it was so tall that its dorsal sail towered over the surrounding masts.Sobek was now thirty-three years old. To say he had grown into a behemoth was an understatement: he now measured 150 meters from head to tail and reached 45.6 meters in height. Even without activating the mutation he was now larger than Godzilla: the gigantic atomic reptile was a tiny lizard compared to him. All kaiju would be small compared to him. Even King Ghidorah would have been forced to acknowledge its superiority.In the last five years he had hardly moved. After the death of his last loyalist he returned to his birthplace and settled there. He ate what was provided to him from the [Personal Manger] and drank the water from the river. Otherwise, he remained calm, warming himself in the sun or admiring the star

    The last fight

    After a few days Nefertiti settled at the lake together with her father and her last remaining uncle. With the help and indications of Sobek she built a comfortable nest and there she laid her egg.Thus began the brood. The female spinosaurus never moved from above her little egg, keeping it constantly warm. Sobek and Buck brought her food and water. When Nefertiti was hot, Sobek used her huge wing as a parasol and Buck fanned her with his tail. In the rare moments when it was cold, the two of her huddled to help her warm up.That routine went on for three months. Finally, at the end of the third month, a familiar clicking sound came from under Nefertiti's paws.The female spinosaurus reared up and looked down. A small crack was opening on the egg. With a smile she moved from above it. The crack widened more and more and finally a large piece of egg broke off, showing a lively green eye that stared intently at Nefertiti.“Hello, baby. I'm your mothe

    The first true hunt

    Time had passed again. Sobek couldn't even figure out how much time had actually passed now. One year? Two? Maybe three? He didn't know.After his retirement, Sobek had gone deep into the forest of Maakanar. It was hard for him to move his huge body through the trees and very often ended up destroying them: his passage was evident as a trail of uprooted trunks was always behind him. He had moved permanently to the lake where he had met Buck and where he had established his first army. And he hadn't gone there alone.Carnopo and Buck had joined him just a month after his departure. They, too, had decided they'd had enough and abandoned their roles entirely. After all, in the new world there was no longer a need for either an army commander or one of the shock legion. Now there was peace, and the old war veterans had no reason to try to find their place in their world. So they had decided to do what they had always done: follow their pack leader.The trio spent th

    Passing to the next generation

    Another year had passed. In Sobek's eyes, time seemed to have begun to flow more rapidly. The months and weeks all passed almost the same and in a flash the morning turned into evening.Humanity had continued its advance. By now, Aphrodites had been fully colonized. Whole cities had sprung up on it and millions of settlers had begun to live there. Davis had now reached more than a billion inhabitants and Hermes now owned thousands of mining establishments.Thanks to teleportation technology it was so advanced that traveling between planets was even easier than going from one city to another. Since energy and material consumption were now no longer a concern thanks to solar panels on Hermes and mining plants on asteroids, everyone had a portable teleportation device. By now, being hired to work a mine on an asteroid was no different than being hired to work at the local convenience store.Colonies on the moons of Leviathan and Behemoth had multiplied, providing e

    More time, more changes. In just one year, many things had changed.Nefertiti had assumed control of the entire astrophysics division of the dinosaur pack, effectively acting as acting pack leader for them. After the first shared mission, she had begun to promote more policies of integration and union between humans and animals. She had facilitated interspecies interspace operations, sending animals and humans to work together in the new worlds to be colonized. Furthermore, there was still much to colonize, as human attention was slowly shifting beyond the outer Solar System to the dwarf planets and comets of the Oort Cloud.The work was not cheap and with it the possibilities of working together. With the Dyson Sphere nearing completion, energy was no longer an issue. After determining which moons to colonize, the Eden Union had begun an intensive mining program in the asteroids of the main belt in order to be able to build huge lenses to capture the sunlight and also

    Path of the giant

    One more year, more innovations. The more time passed, the more progress seemed to accelerate. It was like a speeding train that multiplied its speed every second: first slow, then faster and faster, until it turned into a giant projectile.Sobek knew that progress was bound to accelerate more and more, after all it was his nature. For each new discovery, countless doors open. And every door leads to other doors. This was the nature of progress. It was no coincidence that it took humanity less than two hundred years to go from horses to aircraft capable of leaving the orbit of their home planet.He recalled that on Earth, where he came from, progress had become so fast in the 21st century that it was enough to be born even a generation later or further back to find oneself in a completely different world. While in 1990 the main communication system was the satellite phone, in 2020 people used social networks for the most disparate things. While in 1990 movies were watc

    Science is eternal

    More time had passed. This time it was a year… or maybe a year and a half? I don't know. Not that it mattered much, actually.The world's attention to the inner solar system was gradually waning. Now that three planets had been terraformed, even if one of them still wasn't enough, and Hermes had become a stable colony that was continuously producing large panels of glass that joined in the orbit of the Sun to form the Dyson Sphere, the humanity was beginning to anticipate new challenges. From the inner solar system it was time to move to the outer solar system.Although some colony outposts were already present on some moons of Behemoth, they could not be defined as true colonies. However, now that energy consumption was no longer a problem thanks to the Dyson Sphere, which although not completed already released enormous amounts of energy, the Eden Union decided to start an exploration program of the entire outer solar system, or at least of the space between B

    Giant of the skies

    Two more years had passed. The advance of humanity towards the stars continued inexorably.The hypotheses of the scientists had proved to be correct: using a combination of gravity control technology and energy obtained from the Dyson sphere, although still incomplete, they had managed to accelerate the rotation of Aphrodites. The planet was slowly accelerating, though not too fast. There was generally talk of an hour each week. At this speed there was no risk of destroying the infrastructure already present on the planet. Yes two years, the rotation period had gone from 2082 hours to 1978 hours. Continuing at this rate, it was expected to reach 24 hours in 'just' another 38 years.Once this process was completed, the huge orbiting mirrors could finally be taken off. The day/night cycle would no longer be artificially determined and there would no longer be the risk that something would go wrong due to the impact of a micrometeorite. In addition, the accelerated rotati
