Sobek snorted as the water crashed over his huge body. One of the disadvantages of being 60 meters long was that it was not easy to find a place to shelter from the rain. And since he was in the trenches he really didn't have the possibility to look for one…
He looked up and looked towards the boundary line. In front of him were several dinosaurs, each of them sheltering as best they could from the rain and trying to rest; just beyond, were fortifications built of wood and earth and tunnels dug out of the mud, similar to the defenses adopted by armies on Earth in World War I, and other groups of dinosaurs stood guard. Beyond the fortifications was a wasteland at least ten kilometers long. Beyond it, lights could be glimpsed in the distance: it was the trench placed by the imperials.
After Sobek publicly announced his intention to go to war alone, international tensions had calmed down somewhat. The Empire had accepted the declaration of neutrality of the Eden Un
It had finally begun. After four months of waiting, finally a real fight was starting.Dawson licked his lips maliciously. He was a mere Major who commanded a single wing of the huge imperial army. He was far from a high command position and knew next to nothing about the plans the Empire had in store, and he personally didn't even care. All he wanted was to be able to pull the trigger and put one bullet through as many dinosaur skulls as possible.In anticipation of war, during those years, the Empire had implemented a strong policy of indoctrination of the population. The soldiers in particular had been adamant that dinosaurs were nothing more than worms that needed to be wiped off the face of the planet for their crime of daring to challenge sacred human supremacy.As surreal as it sounded, it hadn't been difficult at all. Such indoctrination had occurred many times on the Earth from which Sobek came. Through the right words, a person could be persuaded to do
Sobek was confident he could win. But he knew that the situation could change immediately if an atomic bomb arrived. Therefore he was prevented: since due to the battle it was difficult to use [Supreme instinct] to warn of the arrival of the bomb, he had asked Rambo to place some members of his intelligence about five kilometers behind the trench of the dinosaurs . In this way they would not be affected by the battle and therefore could use [Supreme instinct] to warn of the approaching dangers. Since a nuclear bomb had a destructive range much greater than five kilometres, [Supreme Instinct] would immediately activate if that eventuality occurred and they could warn Sobek in time. If that had happened Sobek would have simply ordered [Teleportation] to be used and the dinosaurs would have fled.In short, Sobek had thought of everything. However, he wasn't confident enough to believe it was that easy. The Empire must have had a reason to attack right now. He had ordered Snock,
Sobek realized he had fallen for a trick. "As I imagined. It was a trap!” he exclaimed, then stared at the rapidly sizzling ground. “I don't know what it is but I don't like it! I better get away before…”The Imperials began firing relentlessly at him. Sobek felt hit countless times. If it weren't for the combo of [Reinforced skin] and [Regeneration], he would have become a sieve right now.Sobek opened his mouth and unleashed [Devastating roar] in every direction. Countless soldiers flew off and several tanks were blown to pieces, but for every soldier or war machine blown away, two took its place. Sobek found himself besieged on all sides.Clearly the Imperials aimed at not letting him go. Sobek decided to use [Teleportation], but suddenly the formation below him glowed with blue light, so much so that it dazzled him."What the…!?" Sobek exclaimed, and then disappeared.A flash of light hit the spinosaurus and the
Sobek stared in shock at the robotic monstrosity in front of him. In his old world, that could have been considered nothing more than science fiction. Instead, in that world they had come to build it. He tried to yell, 'What does this mean!?', but no sound came out of his mouth.The huge robot seemed to laugh. "You forgot? There is no air here. You can't use your voice” he said. “In case you haven't noticed, we are communicating using the same psychic waves you use to communicate with your subordinates”Evidently he was referring to the [Contract's] mind-sharing ability. Sobek decided to follow his advice. “Why can't I communicate with my companions? And why can't I teleport?”"A simple block" the robot replied, then pointed to a point in the distance where the structure that Sobek had seen earlier was located. “About ten kilometers away from us right now there are eight special devices that form a perfect circle within which
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
