The Primordial Record novel Chapter 123

Chapter 123 The Color of Sunrise

The General did not hide the fact that he had possessed the body of the soldier, Alec Rhines, he saw no need to. His orders would be obeyed more quickly and efficiently if they knew who he was.

In his extremely weakened state, all of these soldiers were his most precious resources, and in his eyes they were just extra lives, but with each death, his bloodline identity gets more diluted, and he would likely fail his resurrection if he did this one more time.

With the destruction of the Nexus, he became aware after a while that Rowan should have left, else he knew he would be dead by now. Not foolish enough to look the gift horse in the mouth, he proceeded to gather the soldiers and any remnants inside the Nexus, and he came upon a startling find.

At this time, he had finished gathering all the people left inside the Nexus, and was busy examining the remnants of the shedding left behind by Rowan Dragons.

When Rowan came back from the Red Moon World, he had carried all the first Shedding of his Serpents the moment they broke through to the Legendary State, he discarded the rest behind in his room because they were cumbersome to carry around, and they had little importance to him.

Yet, these were diamonds to Augustus, for he had never seen anything like this.

He had moved with everyone away from the core of the collapsed region of the Nexus, until they were just outside the unstable region, there were low rumblings behind them, as the earth settled, and Augustus was still amazed that everyone inside the manor survived without any major injury.

The full scope of the Nexus was revealed. They were on an island that was not surrounded by water, but by a sea of green swirling sand. Occasionally, considerable shapes would break through the sand and fall back into it, as if they were swimming inside the ocean.

Augustus felt a presence sweep over him and everyone else here and nearly cried out in shock when he saw the head of a massive golden centipede that was thousands of feet long, it seemed to look deeply at the island, before it sank back into the sea of green sands.

Everyone else let out the breath they had all been holding, and a few of the townspeople had already fainted, with some of them frothing in the mouth.

"Um… General… Sir…?" One of the soldiers mumbled at Augustus, the presence of the General and the events of the last few days had shaken them, they were low-level Dominators and never expected to be near something of this scale for their entire service life.

"What is it?" Augustus replied, the irritation clear in his tone, as he looked up from examining the shed scales of the Dragons.

"Well… we were wondering… seeing that we're in the middle of nowhere with no communication to the base or to the family, if we could…"

"Transportation would be here shortly, now shut up and return to your position. Keep an eye on these folks, would you? Each one of their heads is worth ten of yours. Okay?"

"Um… yes sir."

"Where is the arrogant bit*h when you need her." Augustus muttered to himself.

"Are you referring to me? You sniveling little sh*t scrape! Oh, I like your new face, by the way, so you have discarded that useless body of yours for something better?" The pleasant voice of a young woman entered his ears.

"Where are you Absomet, hurry, else you may regret if I get killed."

"No Augustus, I would pay good money to watch you get killed. Look behind you."

Augustus frowned and turned around, looking at the horizon, and at first, he saw nothing.

Then a wave of darkness that covered the entire sky began to emerge from the distance.

It was always easy to forget how massive this Rune Ship was, in a few seconds, half the sky was covered by her immensity, and by this time everyone here had become aware of her presence and cries of awe rang out.

A blue light beamed down and collected everyone on the island, Absomet paused for a while as she scanned the island, another blue light beamed on the island and penetrated deeply into the ground. _{freewёbnoνel.com}
