The Matriarch Chapter 148 Team up
After a few hours of driving and they finally arrive at their destination, from the road, they looked down on the buildings that were being taken over by the lush greenery surrounding it.It resembled the one that was in the city, much like the main headquarters of the research department.White walled, intricate architecture that had a mix of futuristic design and durability against attacks. It boasted several large concrete buildings that faced each side of the compass.“So that’s the place. Seems to have been abandoned for quite some time.”Chris rubbed the bottom of his chin as he contemplated on the setting and surroundings of the area.Also, he could feel something off about it, which was the reason they stopped there.“Three years to be exact, sir.”Harold was checking on his phone to make sure that he had the proper information to give.That only caused the private officer’s face to turn even more dark, as a thought crossed his mind at the mention of it.“Why built it near a l
The Matriarch Chapter 149 Team mission start
“We’re going to split up into three. Will start off with a scouting party, then a main, and last would be our backup and emergency get away, in case we need to call for help or inform the authorities.”Chris explains his strategy after a few minutes of deliberating with his two companions.There was something definitely blocking him, and this was the only way to confirm it.It troubled him that no matter what he tried to do, he couldn’t get a grasp of the surroundings, all because he was still unaccustomed to their world’s rules. It limited his powers to the extent of uselessness.“Then how will we divide our manpower, sir?”Harold asks.Glancing at the rowdy bunch of youngster that were all gathered up in front of them.He was no soldier, but he was aware of what he got into, and prepared for it, unlike the youngsters they were with, which made him worry about their fighting capacity.“We have to consider the role and job to balance the teams. For the first team, we will have Oliver
The Matriarch Chapter 150 Oliver's team
“Isn’t sir Chris being too cautious?”Melo started chattering after a few hours of walking.They’d been traversing the forest for an entire hour now and all they encountered were trees, birds, some snakes, and the extremely giant insects flying around.The only noise that was there were the crickets and chirping of frogs, that seem to echo through the place non-stop.“Yeah, I mean, would it not have been better if we all stick together?”Kyles second it, having his own thoughts on it. He pauses when a large mosquito suddenly went straight for his face, causing him to fumble his hands to smack it away.“True, power in numbers.”Bryce added, to give his own two cents on it.His companions stopped talking because they were now running around, trying to escape from the numerous insects that were bothering them.“Well, there were nine of you and only three of us. Yet, you lost. What do you think would have happened if we were there to kill you?”Oliver cleared that out.From his own perspe
The Matriarch Chapter 151 Harold's team
“Damn it, how come I ended up being left here? I could fight too.”Arnold grumbled.The lad was sitting on top of the cliff, looking down on the forest where their friends had disappeared.He was pouting, mumbling the same word over again while he pulled the grass on the ground.Harold heaved a sigh. It had been almost two hours, and the young man continued to mope about the whole thing.He checked the device that they had brought. Luckily, Oliver was prepared for this sort of stuff, so they weren’t moving blindly.Upon looking at it, the reconnaissance teams were still close to each other. He listens in on his walkie-talkie, no noise.Since there seems to be nothing of note, he takes that time to calm and ease the youth’s displeasure, feeling sorry for the kid.“Sir Chris was only maximizing the most effective groups.”He states after a few minutes of contemplating.After thinking of what the private had thought, it was not that hard to notice the reason behind his decision.The lad
The Matriarch Chapter 152 Chris's team
“That’s not good.”Chris reached out his palm to brush the dark glass looking wall that blocked their route. It covered a huge portion of the area and seem to reach quite the height.It felt cold to the touch and somewhat tingly. It was rubbery in texture but solid enough to not bend.“We got separated.”Dereck roared, slamming his fist on the thing that had appeared right in their path. It came out in a blink of an eye that they could hardly do anything.Even though it looked darkly transparent, they could no longer see their friends who were on the other side.“What the hell is this?”Julie knocked on it, it didn’t seem as fragile as glass cause their other two companions continued to pummel at it with no effect.“It looks like some kind of pocket dimension, similar to Harold’s, but different in a sense.”Chris pondered, tilting his head since he noticed something odd from the trees that were on the other side of it.None of them looked alike any of the local flora there, and the on
The Matriarch Chapter 153 Traps
From the mist, more giant insect like beast kept appearing, one after the other.The monstrosities were surrounding them, forcing them to push through while fighting, that they could barely catch their breaths.“Where are they coming from?”Kyle grumbles, while continuously chopping and kicking at every creature that tried to jump at them. Being the fastest among them, they charged him with going to each of their sides to minimizing the enemies’ numbers to the best he could.“I don’t know?”Bryce grumbled he had released all three of his beast summons, a black, white, and gray horned wolf, in order to make sure that they do not get overwhelmed.“Stay in formation!”Oliver orders.As the designated leader, he took into the fronts, dawning his full equipment mode to take the enemy’s head on, plowing through every single one of them with a slash and slam of his shield and sword.The moment the creatures appeared, he knew they could no longer hang in there. They needed to find their enemi
The Matriarch Chapter 154 Speed and strength
“Everybody okay?”Harold asks, looking at each and everyone of the youth that was with him.All three were still coughing from the smoke, daze and shocked, they were all panting as they tried to take in as much air.Luckily, he could react fast enough, ordering Daniela to create a sphere force field about the size of a basketball.“I didn’t think we’d survive that.”The girl struggled to breathe, gurgling when she felt her insides still rolling.The blast had thrown them out into the forest, into a bush where they remained hiding, allowing them an accidental escape.“Good thing you had that idea. I did not think that was possible, fitting so many people in a small defense, and because of that, we fortified the force field tenfolds.”Arnold tries to laugh off the near death experience. Thanks to that, they could withstand the blast that the attacker let out.Because of of shrinking the defensive shield, their friend could recreate it about several times over, creating a more resilient
The Matriarch Chapter 155 Accidents
Dereck was feeling woozy, after going all out for the first time.He’d never had done such a thing before, and it felt liberating that he could still feel his blood rushing with such adrenaline that it tingled with so much power.He could not help but smile, looking at his hands that continued to glimmer with sparks from his attack.His amazement and fascination disappears only when he saw the damages that he had made.It had obliterated trees into nothing but charred pieces of coal, while the grass had turned to ash, making the place look barren.It replaced joy with panic, seeing that he was the only one that was there.He wasn’t thinking clearly before, having accumulated such energy that it totally got him drunk in power that he completely forgot about his friends.“Hey, where are you guys?”He called out.He was now laced with fear, realizing what he could have done because of his arrogance.Beads of sweat rolled down his side, along with his tears, as there was only rubble all a
Latest Chapter
Prologue An impending doom
Within the darkness, on a floating platform made of trees, vines, and krad carcasses, was Chris, sitting on a throne of spikes and bent trunk, along with the wriggling doctor. The roots of the fauna continued to grab hold of the now silent machinery, as it too remained helpless in the void.“We can breathe! Fascinating.”Steinz chuckled, as they were both able to remain alive, even within the emptiness of the space. A thing which was impossible. The chill prevailed, together with the silence, but it did not bother both of them, being protected by the makeshift vessel.“Let’s see you enjoy it when you get bored with the place.”Chris grumbles, sighing as he narrowed his gaze onto the infernal device. The object may have stopped, but he was certain its power remained.“I am positive we can find a way to kill boredom in someway.”The old geezer let out another cackle, enjoying his weightlessness, swimming within the nothingness like a serpentine fish. He used his webs as an anchor, makin
Chapter 231 The matriarchs power
The skies began opening up, tornadoes appeared increasingly. It started wreaking havoc, along with the continued earthquakes.Chris witnessed it all, watching how the land was breaking because of the machine. He took in a deep breath, feeling the drudge in his chest, contemplating on his plan if it will work.He’d been starting there for an hour now, and all this time, he was having doubts because of the fear which was nudging inside of him.He was so far in his thoughts that he hardly notice the portal opening nearby. Out came Raynald, a healed up Oliver, and the others.All of them stunned to see him just standing there, unmoved by all the chaos, looking into the nothingness with lifeless eyes.“Matriarch, everything all right?”It was the sergeant who asked, being the only one bold enough to approach and check up on him.That wake him from his dreamlike state, sensing those familiar energies. He smiles, having those warm presence surrounding him.Them being there somehow jolted his
Chapter 230 The first
Chris stared above, watching that beautiful large planet in the sky. He smiles, unable to believe that they are going to collide with such a gorgeous thing.He turns his gaze to the pyramid, humming non-stop. Spike roots rot around it, barely touching the area. The golems which tried to go near the site all crumbled.Once again, he fires a shot. The beam deflects, ricocheting on the nearby tree.He clicks his tongue in frustration. The machine had created its own barrier. He could only find out after getting pushed back when he approached it.“Fascinating, isn’t it? My life’s work.”The gurgling voice states.Chris’s eyes rolled, huffing in irritation before turning to the now crawling geezer.The old man’s head popped out of the body of a large beetle larvae, web like mucus continued to flow out of him, three hands twitching with excitement.Even in his new form, the fellow remained pompous of his job, as it showed in how he gaze at the mechanism.“Yes, I would have commended you for
Chapter 229 Merciful or Ruthless
After an hour of fighting, general Gently’s men started retreating, disappearing within the covers of the mist. The man himself withdrew into the veil of that thick, grayish cloud.The doctor’s lackeys cheered in triumph, having push back their enemy who tried to destroy their weapon. All of them letting out laughs, because even the monsters that were charging in had vanished.Chris watch as the group celebrated their victory and after a thorough observation, he confirmed his theory about them.Once they became complacent enough, he makes his move, stepping out of the guise of the fog calmly.“I knew you were still alive. Doctor Howard Steinz.”He states, narrowing his sights at the man who stood in the middle of them all.The geezer’s smile faded, frowning upon seeing him walk unfazed in front of all those men.The crowd was quick to gather, blocking themselves in defense of the elderly fellow.Those who had a barrier ability created a gigantic dome, protecting both the machine and t
Chapter 228 Decisive Battle
Above them, the cloud ridden sky sparked and roared, as the unrivaled beings clashed with each other.Behind them, booms of cannons and rattling of machine guns continued, and in front, debris would fall off from the top, while flashes of different colored lights would appear, together with the sounds of explosions.Chris remained still, staring at the two individuals flying in the air while cooking up a plan inside his head.“Matriarch, you think it was wise to use him?”It was Finny, fidgeting from the pressure in the atmosphere.Both superpowers kept releasing an immense trace of energy, reaching down below.It continued to make them sense the overpowering presence, causing the unbearable sensation of staying there, since they still got that fear of the danger being close by.“Zero can handle himself.”He mutters the name they gave him, confident that the being is strong enough to take on his opponent.The only trouble they had was the stray beam falling down, blowing up a portion
Chapter 227 Special weapon
Chris narrowed his eyes, feeling every bit of his body trembled in anticipation. His adrenaline was trashing about, his hearts continued to pump uncontrollably fast.The amount of aura the man was releasing was as he had expected, inciting a higher excitement in him.A grin formed inside his mask, unable to hide the sheer joy he was experiencing from relief.“Get him out of here.”He orders, not removing his eyes on the guy.From having witnessed the battle with Oliver unfold a moment ago, he was now used to his speed, so he realized how much effort he needed to exert to stop him.Though he stood straight, his fingers were twitching, alert to take out his weapon if the fellow tried to move from his place.A portal opened beside the wounded youngster, letting out Harold, Raynald, Finny, and Marco. All four were wearing masks, hiding their identity from the guy.The double S class stayed in a steady battle pose, weary of beginning an attack after that. Especially because his wound conti
Chapter 226 To be the strongest
The force that Oliver released blasted away all five mercenaries.The others caught the effects of his sudden surge, because of the wind blowing from him from the pressure.The double S class, Carl, who grinned lasciviously while looking down on the events as it unfolded, also mesmerized by the dazzling display.Oliver’s armor completely changed. It now glistened with a blinding white light, the design on each piece that he wore became more intricate.“What did he do?”Nikolai, the serpentine user, was gritting his teeth, trying to keep himself steady.The pressure being thrown at them made it difficult to move. It’s weight pushing them down to the ground.When everything settled, they all sensed an impending gap in their levels, just by looking at the youth.Oliver can feel the power surging through every vein in his body, increasing all his senses.It was as if it turned him invincible at the moment, having an overflowing amount of energy, along with becoming so light on his feet.W
Chapter 225 A decisive gamble
Oliver’s heart raced, each time someone turns his way, his blood rushing as he continued moving in the mist's guise. His every motion stayed silent, quick, and fluid.He pauses when he reaches the summit, as the clearing no longer provided any kind of protection. It was where the opening yet did not have any area to hide.He takes a few huffs of breath, shutting his eyes to muster his courage, readying himself for what he is about to do.Once done, he did not hesitate to take a step forward, having put all his mind into it. In seconds, he dashes about five meters into the clearing, but his momentum was not enough to reach the gap.“It’s the sniffer!”One soldier got a glimpse of him, gaining the attention of the others. All those that were in reserve promptly rush to the site.But he had already broken through the force field, slamming his shield right into it without a problem.He uses the sudden pause as a leverage to shift his movement, turning to his side to head towards the pyram
Chapter 224 A single man's risk
Flames, flashes of light, and debris mixed into the mist. There was barely nothing to see there because of it.Screams of terror, despair, and anger filled the air, along with the explosions and shots now and then.Deep within the middle of it all, Oliver was pulling his father to the safety of a nearby mound that he saw. Away from all the beams, bullets, and other stuff that were flying around.“Come on, dad.”He urges, as his old man could no longer move, groaning with each motion because of the wound on his legs.They froze in place, hearing a loud clicking sound behind. Instinctively, he let out a shield, blocking a claw in the nick of time.He winced, receiving the brunt and weight of the force, his bones cracking, forcing him to bend his knee to weaken its pressure.Huge mandibles began munching on his defense, attacking to break through it, while its scythe claws pulled at him. All he could do was tug at it, drawing its attention to hide his father from those large, dark, insec
