Hakikatin Efendisi – Bölüm 1385

Bölüm 1385: Bir Bağlantı Devletiyle Mücadele

“Sen! Buraya gel!”

Gezegen imparatoru, havayı sarsan gür bir öfkeyle bağırdı; sesi aşağılanma ve inanmazlıkla doluydu. Sadece dördüncü seviye bir yasa kullanıcısının ona meydan okuma cüretine sahip olması, hakaretten öte, öfke uyandırıcıydı.

Ardından hiç tereddüt etmeden elini ona doğru uzattı.

VIZILDAMAK!

Avucundan alev alev yanan kıpkırmızı bir enerji eli fırladı, korkunç bir güç ve hızla genişleyerek, sanki gerçekliğin ipliklerini koparıyormuş gibi atmosferi yarıp geçti.

“Bu kötü…” Latania tehlikeyi anında fark etti. İçgüdüleri ona bunun kaba kuvvetle engellenmemesi gereken bir şey olduğunu haykırıyordu.

Hiç tereddüt etmeden savaş çekicini bir kenara fırlattı, güçlü bir şekilde geriye sıçradı ve sağ elini enerjiyle parıldayan ve vızıldayan hayalet pençelere dönüştürdü. Sol eliyle sağ bileğini kavrayarak darbeyi sabitledi.

Sonra kolunu bir mızrak gibi ileri doğru savurdu.

“Yankı Parçalanması!!”

Enerji yapılarını içeriden parçalamak ve dalgalar kullanarak tamamen çökertmek için tasarlanmış bir teknik.

Ama işi henüz bitmemişti.

Saldırısının şok dalgası henüz yayılmadan Latania bir sonraki hamlesine başladı. Parmakları birbirine kenetlenen işaretlerden oluşan bir ağ oluşturdu, gözleri yoğun bir odaklanmayla parlıyordu.

“Girişim Örtüsü.”

Güçlü bir savunma tekniği olan bu örtü, enerji tabanlı saldırıları parçalamak ve dağıtmak, onu kaçınılmaz yok oluştan korumak için tasarlanmıştır.

Saldırı başlatıldı. Kalkan açıldı. Ve sonra—ani bir dönüş yaparak ayağını altındaki çatlak taşa çarptı.

Bu gücün ivmesiyle, bir zamanlar büyük şehir kapısı olan yere doğru hızla ilerledi.

Hareket ederken kollarını yanlara doğru genişçe açtı ve her iki elinin işaret ve orta parmaklarını birbirine bastırdı.

“Dağılma Pelerini.”

Aniden, birbirinin aynısı dört klon ortaya çıktı; her biri onun birebir kopyasıydı, aura, hareket ve enerji düzeni bakımından ayırt edilemezdi.

Beş Latania’nın hepsi birden kapıya doğru koştu, her biri temel bir yasanın ilkel gücüyle desteklenen bir hareket karmaşasıydı.

Ama sonra-

ÇATIRTI!!

Yankı Dağılma yayları devasa kırmızı elle karşılaştı ve muazzam güç yoğunluğunu delemeyerek temas anında dağıldı.

BAAAANG!

Sıradaki engel Girişim Örtüsüydü . Çatlak bir ayna gibi titredi, sonra da Gezegen İmparatorunun kudretine bir saniyeden fazla dayanamayarak paramparça oldu.

Çıt!

Kırmızı enerji eli, korkunç bir hızla aradaki mesafeyi kapatarak kaçan yanılsamalara odaklandı.

VU …

Klonların her biri farklı bir yöne dağıldı; bu, devin öfkesini saptırmak için yapılan son çaresiz bir kumar.

İmparator gözlerini kıstı.

“Çocuk oyuncağı,” diye tısladı küçümseyerek.

His palm twisted, and the energy hand responded—expanding instantly, swelling into a colossal force of destruction that blanketed the entire block of the city like an eclipse.

And then—

BOOOOOOOOOM!!

The hand fell like a celestial meteor, crashing down on the gate area, the surrounding ruins, the shattered stone, the corpses, and the very ground beneath them.

All of it—flattened, crushed, and buried under layers of ruin.

The sky was filled with dust and rubble.

A moment passed.

The emperor stood still, composed, his expression cold. This level of annihilation should have activated the epic armor’s last defense—it always did.

But then his brows furrowed.

“Hmph?”

He extended his senses.

…No life signs.

…No trace of divine armor energy.

That wasn’t just unlikely—it was impossible.

“What is this…?” he muttered, eyes narrowing in suspicion.

“All five… completely erased…?”

And then—

SWOOSH.

“What?!”

A sudden distortion tore into his senses.

From his flank—coming in fast—were the unmistakable claws of Echo Disintegration.

“How?!”

The Nexus State casually waved his hand—and with terrifying ease, the claw attack vanished into nothingness, erased from reality like a speck of dust in the wind.

His gaze sharpened, irritated. His body stiffened with tension.

He began scanning his surroundings with growing unease, unleashing his soul sense with suffocating intensity, sweeping across the ruined landscape like a divine tide.

“Where are you?! …What in the name of the stars is happening here?!” he roared into the void.

At that precise moment, his senses picked up eight identical life signatures—each one carrying the same chilling frequency as the Black Wasp. They were scattered throughout the city, each racing in a different direction, and worst of all…

Each one was preparing to strike.

“Fine,” he growled through clenched teeth.

“Let’s see how long your tricks can last. Let’s see how many of these flawless decoys you can conjure before your fragile body collapses from exhaustion!”

He pointed with a single glowing finger, charging it with wrathful red light.

Bang! A sharp, needle-like beam of crimson shot through one of the figures—right through its heart.

But there was no blood. No scream.

Only mist.

It was nothing but another illusion.

“Hmph. You’re just postponing the inevitable, coward!”

The Nexus State Planetary Emperor launched himself to the center of the illusion web, now fully determined to tear them apart one by one.

Meanwhile, hidden behind the chaos…

“Hoo~”

Latania sat in complete stillness, legs crossed, body relaxed, surrounded by her triple-layered healing arrays, each one pulsing softly in rhythmic glow. She was immersed in deep recovery after the blistering exchanges of power moments ago.

She was currently in a rare, secretive state known as Silent Erasure—a cloaking technique so advanced it completely nullified any trace of biological or soul presence, turning her into a phantom among mortals.

Not only that, but any soul sence touching her would continue onward as if she were never there.

Even a Nexus State being—one of the highest in existence—would require laser-sharp focus to detect the subtle distortions in his soul field.

But how could he focus, when eight deadly echoes of Latania threatened him from all sides, each holding her terrifying Echo Disintegration Claws?

[Elsewhere – A quiet movement begins.]

Malek rose from his sitting posture slowly, his expression unreadable.

With a flick of his wrist, the three formation arrays vanished into his spatial ring.

He turned his head slightly and muttered in a quiet, grim voice:

“At this pace, Latania can stall him for ten more seconds. That’s all we get. Let’s move.”

“Ki ki ki… try not to fall behind, old friend,” Wade cackled, doing the same as he retracted his arrays. He leapt forward, vanishing and reappearing in short, thunderous bursts of speed.

“I’ll go for the vault. You handle the mess.”

With a final step that cracked the earth, Wade blurred forward.

In the next heartbeat—BAA!—he appeared directly above the ruins of the imperial palace.

Raising his hands, he formed a circle with thumb and index finger. Inside that ring, space rippled and liquified like oil over fire.

He brought the ring to his right eye, closed the other, and peered downward—not at the rubble, but deep beneath it.

This was the power of the Fracture Reader—an extraordinary ability that allowed him to generate an ultra-precise 3D map of all fault lines, materials, and density variations within his visual radius.

It was so advanced it could detect the microscopic gaps between grains of sand, building an invisible blueprint of the underground.

“Ki ki ki… there you are, sweetheart.”

Grinning like a madman, Wade dropped his hand, then traced the shape of a cube in the air using radiant energy. With a swift downward thrust of his left hand—

“Isolation Prison.”

VMMMMMMMMMMMM—

The energy cube expanded rapidly, descending like a tomb from the heavens. It plunged deep underground until it surrounded a specific target—then it stopped, locked in place.

“Ki ki ki…”

Satisfied, Wade turned his body. His nose, eyes, and mouth suddenly burst into streams of blood, the backlash of what he was about to do.

Yet, his grin only grew more feral.

“Switch.”

SWOOOOOSH!

A massive metallic vault appeared in front of Wade, replacing the isolated object. It was towering, impossibly large—larger than the entire imperial palace, a construct of unimaginable value.

HUUUUUUUUUUUUMMMMMMMMM—

The earth screamed beneath the weight of the vault.

The ground buckled, cracked, and collapsed entirely, giving way to a titanic dust storm that tore through the area like a tidal wave.

Even the Nexus State Planetary Emperor was forced to look back.

And when he saw it… he whispered in disbelief:

“No…”
