《Stranger Than Fiction》Chapter 40: 25th Hour

Darkness.
Its STATE was damaged beyond repair. Multiple wreckages of constructed terrain were consuming large quantities of Anomalous Energy. Sudden spike in Monster Soul Prototype influx was alarming. Whatever intruder had invaded past its defenses, the Crypt of Fiendish Worms was finding it difficult to put it down.
This could be a MAJOR PROBLEM.
Invaders were a non-issue. NORMAL Invader Activity was essential to constant survival. Information from the Watchers indicated the presence of a He-Who-Consumes-Within. Conflicting observation, since no foreign Anomalous Energy was traced.
The Crypt of Fiendish Worms extended its awareness outwards. EXTERNAL ALTERATIONS negative, as usual. The land was soaked in ANTI-LIFE concepts.
Not consumable. Rejected.
It turned its gaze inward. Vital statistics showed the INNER LAYER bordering on NEARLY DESTROYED.
Intruder He-Who-Consumes-Within REMOVED Monster Prototype THOGGUA from SOUL CRYPT.
Intruder He-Who-Consumes-Within REMOVED Monster Prototype OROCORAN from SOUL CRYPT.
Intruder He-Who-Consumes-Within REMOVED Monster Prototype SEUGATHI from SOUL CRYPT.
Intruder He-Who-Consumes-Within REMOVED Monster Prototype NEOTHELID from SOUL CRYPT.
…
…
The list went on and on. This was OUTRAGEOUS.
He-Who-Consumes-Within was CONSUMING Monster rototypes from ITSELF, and the Crypt of Fiendish Worms was doing NULL. It could do NULL about it.
Unacceptable.
Unacceptable.
A wave of Anomalous Energy expanded outward from ITSELF, radiating from the crystals of the SOUL CRYPT.
Anomalous Energy Reflected
Anomalous Energy Absorbed
Neonate Anomaly Detected within Expansion Radius
PREDATOR Detected within Expansion Radius
Probability of Destruction of SOUL CRYPT = 47%
Unacceptable.
Utterly Unacceptable.
He-Who-Consumes-Within is a CONTRADICTION
PREDATOR is an AGGRAVATION
RECOMMENDATION
Instant-Termination of both Species.
Tempting recommendation. But Instant-Termination would require a forceful trigger of FAILSAFE.
Not recommended.
But…necessary.
Soul Crypt contraction was underway. Monster count had been drastically reduced. All Anomalous Expansions were on hold.
It was time for Instant-Termination.
Safety Off!
Initiate Extermination

However, it is you who decide whether that second opportunity counts… This novel revolves around our main character, Chen Murong, who can accidentally go back in time even before the apocalypse period begins to change everything humankind has done. We will follow our MC and see how he and his family react to this second chance to ensure their family and the human race's survival. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Current release schedule: 1 Chapter/week on Saturday + extra if I have more time on the weekday If you like my writing, please consider tipping/supporting me on: PayPal: paypal.me/AmateurAuthorPen Patreon: patreon.com/singlehamster I plan to have advanced chapters on Patreon in the future for you to read as well.

I hope to see you guys there! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Full background: The story situates in a universe called Gondola, where countless races from numerous worlds and realities are poured in. Our MC's original world, Blue planet (similar to Earth), went through an apocalypse period for ten years and has been pulled through this universe by mysterious force as one of the human race worlds. Unfortunately, the human race is one of the weakest and most feeble races of all Gondola races. However, their sheer number and several allies have helped them escape extinction so far. Regrettably, even though there are many ants, given a sufficient amount of time, the elephant will eventually be able to destroy them all. After 50 years of pointless struggle, almost all of the last remaining humans have been hunted down by some of the strongest undead races of the Gondola, the Skeletons, the Vampires, the Werewolves, and the Demons. The few remaining humans have been found and eradicated. Our MC, Chen Murong, a member of the last humanity group, can escape the hunt from undead races for fifty years. He finally dies under the claw of Lucifer, one of the emperor-rank demons from the undead race. However, he activates one of his time magic spells with his most precious space gemstone at the moment of his last breath. Through the spell, he wakes up alive, back in his home world, and returns to the year before the apocalypse period began.
