The creature twisted once, a mass of Aether appeared over its corpse and it was over.

"They haven't met a Digestor lvl2 like me, it seems. From the look on his face, I'd be surprised if this playboy could keep his cool against such a monster." Jake judged, turning his gaze to the other individuals...

The group was a motley crew. Five men, six women, one child. One of the men, a rather athletic playboy, was about his height and wore a colt in his hand. The rest of the group seemed to crowd around him, seeking his protection.

"Damn it, I'm on that damn planet for less than an hour and I'm already in bad shape." Jake sighed as he was taking a bite out of a high-protein bar to recharge his batteries.

Unfortunately, although his ribs were not broken, they were painful, perhaps cracked. His chances against another monster like this one would be much darker.

However, while the aura of the Oracle Overseer was overwhelming, there was no hostility towards them. The latter was content to float calmly in his armchair, his tadpole head undulating calmly from right to left.

The silvery-metallic suit of unknown material seemed indestructible, all vulnerable points of the anatomy being covered by ornate armour plates. These lines of patterns were composed of thousands of incomprehensible runes, emitting a modest bluish glow.

[Actually, you don't have a soul either. All your memories, your emotions are mostly contained in your brain. If I change the hormonal balance, the levels of neurotransmitters or surgically remove/destroy parts of your brain, your personality will change irrevocably.

"What the fuck is this maniac?! " Snarled Jake, cursing his bad luck. One, the world was coming to an end, two, he had his One Night Stand stolen by a guy he physically outperformed on every level, and now an attempt on his life?

Once at home, Jake threw himself on the black leather sofa. This day at work had been short, but he was already exhausted with all the unforeseen developments. He found within himself the strength to stand up again to brew a cup of coffee. Lyophilized coffee, if that interests anyone. He was not rich, but not so poor he couldn't afford a good coffee machine. He was just lazy. Stir a teaspoon of freeze-dried coffee in hot water and it was done. Sorry, for the purists.

Fine, sharp traits and smoldering eyes contrasted with his lack of delicacy. From time to time, a sad melancholic glint would replace it, quickly stifled by a frown.

Based on the information from his foreknowledge, this cemetery had existed for quite a long time. The tombstones had all weathered, and the carved inscriptions were no longer visible. He couldn't imagine when this cemetery was left behind.

"Big brother, this is what you wanted!" Li Hao handed a blood-red crystal and a jade plate to Su Nan.

Perhaps it was really as Zhou Lingyin said, that essence blood would only be preserved by coincidence, but such situations would definitely be rare!

If Amy's former coworkers could hear her thoughts, they'd probably vomit blood, including Kyle. Luckily, they were completely oblivious to all those morbid thoughts.
