Chapter 1651
Rozi fell silent. She wanted to head over to Mount Shangspar more than anyone since it was the resting place of her family. However, she knew she needed to focus on the bigger picture.***Adrian proceeded to familiarize himself with Novemton's situation from the Department, burning everything he had learned into his mind. He then came up with a unique plan. He decided to create a new Novemton, and the survivors would be his weapon to start this new prosperous age. He wanted to see how the Creator was going to retaliate against this plan of his. Steel spent the afternoon gathering academicians, scientists, medics, and researchers. There were a large number of them among the five hundred thousand survivors. These elites gathered within the Department's conference room. Hugh walked into the conference room with two men in their sixties beside him. "Sir Draco, my name is Hugh Shephard. I was Monarch Crystal's subordinate,” Hugh introduced himself since that was their first time me

“Mortimer's right, sir. All our information, records, and equipment are back at the office. We need to access our lab to start back up the research," Hodge implored. Hugh frowned. "Sir, their office is about fifteen kilometers away from our walls and it’s filled with monsters. And those particular monsters are ferocious. It won't be an easy task to reach the office."Adrian knew how important getting to the laboratory was. However, even if they did manage to get there, there was no guarantee the records and data were still intact. Thus, there was only one option now."Hugh, starting today, I want you and Steel to take up separate roles. Steel will be in charge of rebuilding Novemton and its defenses, while you're in charge of re-establishing our electricity supply and online systems. You have three days to accomplish your task. Can you do it?"After pondering for a moment, Hugh replied, "I can get the electricity back up and running. Although the cables are pretty badly damaged, w

Adrian was slightly discouraged. He surmised it would be hard for the monsters to siege Novemton if they could rig the city's surroundings with high-voltage electricity, but based on current technology, it was an impossible task.Hugh then said, "However, we could adapt your strategy by rigging the city with high-voltage electricity as a final resort. Should we fail to defend the city, we could activate this electrical defense as an insurance policy."Adrian did not comment on the matter, thinking that it was something for a later time. What Hugh needed to focus on was providing electricity to the city and re-establishing an Internet connection. Novemton would prosper once those two things were done. "Start repairing the signal tower, Hugh. I'll have Steel send out a team to assist you. They'll make sure you and your team are safe should you all run into any danger. Remember, you have to succeed in your mission.”"Yes, sir." Adrian then gestured for Hugh to get to work. He turne

"We may be defeated, but we can’t let it stop us from progressing. I swear on my life to fight this battle alongside you until the end.""Until the end!" the group echoed. "All right. From now on, I want each of you to take up responsibilities according to your professions and abilities. Feel free to make any suggestion you think will benefit us. Let's keep on pushing forward.""Yes, sir.” As the crowd applauded, Helen, along with Susan and Chrissy, anxiously walked into the conference room. "We've got a problem, sir!" Helen said. Adrian approached them and asked, "What is it?"Helen took a deep breath to calm herself before she answered, “We found a new species of monster outside the city. They're extremely small, but possess powerful offensive capabilities and can climb walls. These things bit some of our soldiers and killed them on the spot.""What?”“Everyone, please get to work. Don't let whatever's happening out there affect your focus. You're all core members in the c

"What's the matter, sir?" Cian asked, "You're scaring us, sir." Everyone felt as though a storm was about to befall them. Adrian's fists were tightly clenched while Rozi had turned pale. Adrian finally answered, "Have everyone return to their homes and lock themselves in. Nobody is to remain out on the streets.""Sir, what…" "Just go!" Adrian shouted.Cian was about to ask something but Adrian’s outburst shocked him and he immediately ran off to do as told. Adrian looked toward the outside of the city and said, "I thought those monsters before were already his trump cards. Who would've thought he’s got more tricks up his sleeve… Things just got really sticky for us.""Sir, are you saying those things have invaded our city?" Barry asked. Rozi said, "Adrian, we have to think of something. We'll be in a lot of trouble if those climbing monsters invade us in large numbers. The usual monsters have large bodies, which gives a fighting chance against them. Against creatures as sm

"Don't move," Rozi whispered before proceeding to fly forward and cut the Climber in half. The monster struggled for a little while before dying. "I think we've been thinking about this too naively. The fact there are large monsters must mean there would be those as small as these Climbers. They're capable of climbing walls no matter how tall they are, and this city will be filled with corpses if we don't find a way to stop them."Rozi looked at the Climber carcasses and took a deep breath as Adrian silently looked into the distance. There was a commotion coming from the airport as planes took off from their platforms to scatter sulfur all over Novemton. Adrian said, "That chemical is poisonous. We should head home and put on a gas mask." The pair then jumped off the wall as the sulfur scattered across every corner, floor, and roof. It looked like it was snowing. The survivors hid in their homes while wearing gas masks. The whole city was filled with a sulfuric smell after the

Climbers were small-sized monsters, making them difficult to fight against. It was unnoticeable if one was not paying attention. To make matters worse, they carried a deadly toxin that could kill anyone once they bit. If Novemton was already having a hard time thinking of a strategy to fight against these creatures, what more of other cities?According to Adrian's instructions, everyone in Novemton began to revamp the city and prepare themselves for future battles. Meanwhile, the survivors from other cities were either on the run or fighting against the monsters. Nobody knew what was going to happen to the world. ***The sound of a baby’s cries could be heard coming from a mini supermarket in Swallowston. Samantha quickly stopped whatever she was doing and picked Nova up from the mattress to comfort her."Please don't cry, baby." Samantha was quite anxious, afraid that Nova's crying would attract the monsters nearby. All of Swallowston had delved into chaos. The monsters ran r

She missed Adrian terribly, to the point of madness even. Gloria smiled. "Don't worry. Adrian wouldn’t abandon us. Maybe he's figuring out how to rescue us right now. He'll find a way to locate us. Maybe he already established a wireless connection and is waiting for us to contact him.""I hope—"Bam! A sudden, violent pounding on the doors of the entrance interrupted Samantha mid-sentence. The doorframe shook, nearing the brink of collapse, startling Samantha and Gloria.Gloria placed her finger on her lips, and Samantha covered Nova's mouth."Nova's crying must have attracted the monsters.”Bam! Bam! Bam! More banging was heard.A menacing-looking monster over three meters tall stood outside the entrance. It had a massive body and wielded a large hammer, which it rammed against the doors. With each hit, Nova became more frightened and her cries grew louder."Nova, please stop crying! Please, I beg you!" Samantha pleaded in panic.However, Nova was too young to understan
