Chapter 27 - exploring a prehistoric island.

The storm was getting closer and closer.

Deimos seeing this decided to take a rope, and bind the 15 ships together.

After finishing this he moved forward towards the storm, flying in front the ships.

When the storm arrived he moved trough the heavy wind and rain.

Pulling along the bound ships.

The storm was never ending and the winds flew in his face the biting cold water droplets didn't hinder Deimos at all.

The storm kept raging and weird beast could be seen trough the ocean surface.

They had giant tentacles and some looked like enormous reptiles.

But they could not get trough the surface of the ocean, like they were seperated by a unending distance.

Even Deimos who saw them with the eyes of the watcher felt a chill run trough his spine.

"I don't think I can win against even one of those monsters."

Deimos eyes turned into solemn, his ever growing arrogance was demped for the first time.

He may be strong and he may be full of potential.

But he was far of from being at the top of the food chain.

For the first time he truly felt how insignificant he was.

How weak he was.

He may have lost once but that was against mortals, and he told himself that it was purely because he underestimated them that he lost.

But looking at these beast he saw no change of winning.

The crew of the ships were already feeling desperate in the storm.

And when they saw these abominations, they lost all hope.

They were ready to die.

But after hearing the angry wails and howls of these beasts that could not reach their prey, they were astonished.

"Why do they not take us to their depts?"

"I think they can't" reacted syeinos.

"Haha that good thank God for his mercy"

"Let's sing our praises to the highest one."

And so the somber and dreadful atmosphere got just a little bit warmer, and the dark clouds a bit lighter.

The singing continued until the storm passed.

And they were in open waters again.

Deimos feeling a weight lifting from his chest, looked to the front where he saw a island.

"Syeinos I see land ahead" Deimos yelled towards the boats.

"Great please bring the ships to dock close to land."

"Alright"

Deimos moved towards the island but as he got closer it was clear that this was no island.

It could be called a continent.

But something was wrong.

Even the smallest trees were more than 150 meters high.

And some being over 1000 meters tall.

And the animal sounds coming from the jungle were louder than any they heard before.

"Let's leave the ships for today and get to shore we can explore the jungle tomorrow."

Even though syeinos had never seen a jungle before, he knew of them.

The Mediterranean had trade routes to the east with China and India, making them knowledge about different cultures and environments.

Meanwhile on Earth's moon.

[LOST CONTACT WITH FIRST PRIORITY]

[SEARCHING FOR NANOBOTS]

[SEARCHING SEARCHING]

A invisible signal was sent out into the galaxy trying to find Deimos.

The ship had been repairing itself on Earth's moon for 7 years now, and by transmutating the moon's matter into usable materials the ship had already been repaired.

It had gone into a sleeping mode, silently monitoring Deimos safety, and growth.

It would only reveal itself once Deimos had grown up.

But the disappearance of Deimos alerted the ship.

The signal went on to the whole solar system and just as it would go past it it hit a barrier.

[FOUND IRREGULARITIE]

[NO LIFE FOUND ON OTHER PLANETS]

[BARRIER FOUND AROUND SOLAR SYSTEM]

[PUSHING SIGNAL TROUGH]

All the stars and galaxy's beyond the solar system were purely a projection.

They were not there and the earth was isolated.

On the beach Deimos stood having a weird feeling.

The conversation of dark matter was 10 times as fast as in Sparta.

His strength kept rising faster and faster.

But he did not understand why.

What was different from home?

And where was he?

Before he could even search for awnsers he saw a screen before his face.

[CONNECTION ESTABLISHED]

[CHECKING HEALTH AND MENTAL STABILITY]

[NO PROBLEMS FOUND]

Deimos didn't panic when he heard this.

He was already used to things like his system.

"What are you Deimos asked"

[REQUEST ACCEPTED]

[I AM YOUR SHIP]

"My ship?"

[YES]

"What kind of ship are you?"

Right when he was about to get a awnser, syeinos came up to him.

"Deimos are you alright?"

"Why are you talking to yourself?"

"Oh it's nothing syeinos"

"Don't worry Deimos we will get back eventually."

"Thank you syeinos."

"No problem Syeinos stood up to pacify the rest of the soldiers and crew."

[YOU DON'T NEED TO SPEAK TO COMMUNICATE WITH ME]

[WE ARE COMMUNICATING TROUGH YOUR NANOBOTS]

[ AND FOR YOUR QUESTION I AM YOUR SPACESHIP]

[THE ONE WHO BROUGHT YOU TO PLANET EARTH]

[BUT SOMETHING WENT WRONG AND THIS IS NOT THE SAME EARTH AS THE ONE I WAS TASKED TO BRING YOU TO]

A silence fell and while Deimos was thinking, about the new information.

The crew had found a cave underneath the towering mangrove trees, where they set up camp and build a fire.

It was a army of 1500 men who came together on the boats.

With 750 of them being rowers.

And 750 fighting Spartans.

"Hey kiesos do you feel a difference?"

"Yes I do it's like we are growing stronger slowly."

The whole army was slowly undergoing suptle changes.

Deimos who sat in a corner was sulking while communicating with his ship.

So I am really weak?

[YES YOU ARE]

could you at least give me a estimate?

[90% THE SPIECIES ON THIS ISLAND CAN KILL YOU]

Have I a chance to kill them too?

[No]

So it is best if we return as quick as possible?

[YES YOU ARE NOT READY FOR THIS]

KILL THE DEMONS ON EARTH FIRST BEFORE YOU SET FOOT HERE]

Just as Deimos was about to respond he heard a scream from the entrance of the cave.

"Malaka what now"
