Terminus continued reading but this time with no surprise but rather admiration ...
to him .. it didn't matter whether these beasts from the olden times really existed at this time ... what he was focused on was how the humans were able to come up with such crazy ideas ..
creating life was impossible .. it wouldn't be an exaggeration that creating life was akin to making a wish to become God himself ..
so he concluded that almost all of these beasts were nothing but operated beings .. specifically machines ...
but he himself didn't have the proof of what he thought of .. he could only keep himself on the thought that these beings were reanimated but from body parts of rare animals found on the planet ..
so far .. after reading about the gryphynx content ... he found more information about the mythical beats .. but one thing confused him though ...
he had seen so many different creatures from the mythological past .. yet a lot of them had been left out just like the dragon ...
although he knew that some things couldn't be replicated .. he didn't expect that the humans could be so stupid to have crazy ideas about myths .. yet they could not have an idea of reanimating a single dragon ...
however after a while he let the matter go and decided to focus more on it later in the future perhaps ..
"Class ... these books will help you find more about the evolution of animals and their rankings ... study more ... who knows ... the information might be helpful in the future .." miss Sarah cast a glance at Terminus before smiling her way down the carpeted stairs ..
however her action was not left unnoticed by Terminus ..
he was well aware of what was going to happen in the future ...
from the way the principal talked to him .. he found it hard to believe that being offered a captain position was just for show ...
he was far ahead of what she was about to say ... he knew that when the news were released about there being evolved animals .. there was bound to be some sort of an expedition ...
but this didn't bother him in any way ... he just continued to fish around in the information about the animals ..
soon though a ringing bell interrupted the entire class ... with a hoarse voice saying that it was time for lunch .....
just like yesterday .. all of the students hurried out like a mob of rats ... running at a fish bone ..
soon the class was left with only the three of them ..
Terminus continued reading more ... the data written down inside the book was far more interesting than he had imagined though ..
when he read almost halfway the quarter of the book .. he had found information on where he could find the animals ..
some were roaming around the planes around Washington DC ...
the strange rainbow energy had not only mutated everyone's genes .. it had expanded the entire earth itself ...
the sea was now ten times longer and larger than it used to be .. and this was only including the Pacific part ...
the land had stretched out to the far horizon ..
and these unclaimed planes had discovered animals that had evolved ..
there were some normal earthly animals around them .. however the majority of them had evolved ...
and seeing this kind of information helped him a lot ..
since this kind of animal data wasn't available on the earth's system he could just look for the information straight on the book ...
after reading as much as he could ... he closed his book and closed his eyes ... his hands on the table ..
he began thinking about the planes ...
the Washington DC from before wasn't like the Washington DC of today...
going to the planes was very dangerous even for the military experts .. if no one knew what they were doing .. they would end up dead ...
although only a few months had passed ... the outskirts .. had harboured so many animals .. that even scientists had not yet discovered .. and what's more was that ... when those creatures emerged ..
they emerged more powerful than a close ranged evolved person or an animal ..
it so happened that in the billions of years when humans were busy fiddling with nature and the starry sky ... these creatures were already there ... like the overseers of the world ..
but in those billion years .. none had even emerged until now ..
and judging from the magnificent heating signal they gave off ... the scientists and the animal researchers ... knew right off the bat that the creatures were abnormally powerful ...
the creatures themselves didn't look all that weird nor did they look like any new species ...
infact to some parts .. they mostly looked like hybrids ...
and out of the millions of them .. only ten had been discovered and given a data reading ...
but even so .. a capture wasn't a possibility ...
Terminus knew how to get through the scanners of the "Big Gate" the entire Northern America .. had after the expansion of the lands ...
the Northern America looked like it was split into two .. yet it was still the same size on both sides ...
the other part inhabited humans and ordinary looking animals and nice greenery ..
on the expanded land .. was weird greenery ... that grew man eating plants ... powerful monsters and animals ...
in this case .. a person wouldn't be issued permission to enter the lands ... without gathering power first ...
there were some few people who were exceptions like the children belonging to the Eternal Elites ...
and also Terminus who had his own ways to bypass human technology ...
the big gate was something like a gateway ... to the expanded lands ...
although it wasn't literally teleporting someone to another place ... it was some sort of a cleansing gateway that improves your genes temporarily whilst in the plane ...
before long Mark and Jessica went out of class leaving him behind thinking to himself ...
when he opened his eyes .. the bell was already ringing ...
the students came in groups and behind them was their Homeroom Teacher ... miss Sarah ...
she held 30 cool looking blue flat small rectangular devices ...
she lost her grip on the devices .. and instead of falling down .. the little sticks flew to each table in a haste ...
hovering before the faces of every student of class 7 ...
"These are called Nano Sticks ... you can store information ... and items inside .. each and everyone of those sticks consist of 10 000 cubic blocks ... each block can take up the weight of 2 000 pounds ... these sticks must be well kept .. and taken care of ... they're very expensive to make .. not to mention the difficulty of gathering the materials ... so please keep them in the right shape .. use them for school .. and other stuff as well .. but the majority filling the stick should be about school ... " everyone then looked at their blue sticks floating mid air infront of their eyes ...
the moment they touched the sticks ..
the blue devices turned into some sort of military emblems ...
with bronze written boldly round the circle emblem ..
there was a name for each student on the emblem .. and a number from seats ...
without further ado miss Sarah didn't dwell much on the sticks and kept on discussing ... ancient history and the benefits of being a leader and the likes ...
although Terminus had learnt almost a quarter of humanity's information ... he still found it interesting to listen to miss Sarah elaborate ...
each explaination made it so he understood what it meant to be human ...
each lesson was elaborated by her ..
in every class ... the homeroom teachers were the teachers of the many subjects .. so they didn't have the need to swap for different lessons ...
so far the only interesting lessons he had learnt from miss Sarah .. were about Shakespeare ...
although he still couldn't understand emotions and feelings like how a normal human should ... he still had a grasp of what Shakespeare explained ...
in human words .. he understood that emotions were just feelings from inside the heart ....
and this Shakespeare was a very clever guy ... the words he wrote inside .. were clearer than they should've been if someone just improvised what emotions were ..
but still though .. nothing could trigger the feelings ...
after the lessons .. the bell rang one last time .. the school ended for the day ..
the entire fleet of students walked out of the door .. leaving the three behind...
after a while after gathering his thoughts .. Terminus stood up from his seat ...
took his bag and scammed his card and walked out of the school's premises ...
the two followed behind...
and just like before ... Terminus had walked to a corner ... removing his scent and aura from powerful senses ... before vanishing from his spot ...
tiny glints of particles dimmed on the spot where he stood ...
he then appeared in his house in the living room ...
he walked to his bedroom and threw his bag on the bed ...
without waiting for any minute to pass .. he went to the internet .. only this time he went to the Goods site ..
he scrolled down .. from weapons .. to gadgets ... from gadgets .. to basic martial art techniques ... from the techniques to the unique military attires option ...
there he scrolled down quickly ... every since the powerful incident .. the military had finally sent out their other finished products ..
the clothes were a part of those finished products ..
at first glance you'd think they were just normal clothes .. but when worn you would realise how much the clothes benefits a person ...
Terminus finally stopped scrolling and his gaze fixated on an attire ...
the rank of this attire was sergeant from military rankings ...
it costed $ 1 000 000 ....
Terminus clicked on "buy" ...
his order was then placed quickly in 15 minutes ..
he wouldn't have to wait for another day for the attire ...
so far ... Terminus's account was not in a sorry state ... infact compared to the nobles from the Eternal Elites ...
his bank account even weighed more than their bank accounts all put together ...
his net-worth in the past few months and days of working .. had brought him over the threshold of $ 5 000 000 ...
so at most he would only be wasting only one million ...
he the sent a message to the delivery .. and gave the location for where they would meet up
15 minutes later ... an advanced drone arrived infront of a house .... with no plastic chopper blades .. and only gas making it hover in the air ...
a blue hole was on its back ... and suddenly a suit in black materialised ...
it had no pockets .. and it had no slits apart from where his eyes were located ...
it was very silky ... and shone in the night .. with the stars shimmering on it ... making it as if like the stars were stuck inside the suit ...
on the suit's back .. was a flat sized suit flying booster ...
it had three rectangular slots .. with a single thin blade dividing them all into six ...
and the legs had flying boosters as well ...
the forearms had thin lines that would release short blades and energy blasters ...
retractable claws ... and night vision goggles ... although Terminus didn't need them .. the suit was fine with him ..
he brought his card out and scanned it on the small blue hole ..
the transaction was then made ..
he was the new owner of [Sergeant Night] ...
if he wished ... it could turn into a small pebble ...
when the drone went off ... the house vanished like broken technological sequences ..
Terminus disappeared as well .. and the pebble in his hands vanished ...
............
He was sitting in his room as a pebble dropped into his hand ..
he examined it and equipped the attire ...
he didn't feel any surge of power nor any special traits but the attire did have a status screen ... for him and the attire itself ...
Terminus went out of his house .. and with his attire equipped he blasted off past through the Big Gate ..
his vision was then blurred by light .. and just like it had appeared. .. it disappeared ...
Terminus looked around and found himself on greenery ... a vine had already caught his leg ...
