DESTINY GAMES

Even inorganic materials were not spared from the effect of the energy. They gained assorted coloration as their materials changed in constitution and properties. It was quite a sight to behold.

Eventually the incursion reached saturation point. It exploded in a flash of light. When the light was gone, all that was left was a crater containing some strange materials and creatures.

Everything in the crater had been taken and transported to a different world. Something from the world that collided with Earth-11 and caused the incursion was also transported here.

This time, the animals that were transported were rabbits. This is usually the case. An incursion that large would only transport things stupid enough to remain close to it while it was preparing itself. Rabbits fit the bill.

If the incursion had been smaller, it would have reached saturation quickly and it would have been largely unnoticeable. A human would remain asleep while it occurred just a few steps away.

The explosion after the saturation would then expand to grab the humans and deposit them in another world. That is if they survive the process. That’s why sane people aren’t lining up to let an incursion grab them.

Sure, there are crazy people who want to go to another world at all costs. That and the threat of creatures being transported here is why the lockoff access to any large and visible incursion. Those people believe that if rabbits can make it, then so should they. But that’s wrong logic.

It is actually very wrong because smaller creatures have an easier time making it alive through the journey. So rabbits are more likely to make it than a large human. Other creatures that don’t make it will turn into strange materials that accompany the rabbits to the new world.

Wrath watched this while sighing to itself. Not that it had a choice. It can’t change the channel even if it wants to. It is watching the news channel because that’s what Kelvin watched last.

Kelvin usually watches the news, so it must watch the news too. That has been its situation ever since it was born. It has to go along with whatever its host is doing.

There are only two things that it can decide and change on its own. Who its next host will be and something else. Until then, it has to go along with its current host.

So it could be the damage that the incursion has done to earth or the fact that it doesn’t have freedom that made it sigh to itself.

Kelvin finished reading after two hours. Then he exercised and had his shower. Next, he ate while watching funny videos.

It was after he slept and woke up the next day that he decided to go through the mission to assassinate the woman with the metal skin.

The mission appeared to be easier and more difficult than his first mission. The woman wasn’t the leader of an establishment. She was just part of a gang. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

She was an efforcer, to be exact. She was muscle for a gang that dealt in arms smuggling. It was a small-time business that dealt mostly with firearms.

Firearms have lost most of their value now that you would need to behead someone to ensure that they are dead. Shooting someone ten times is not enough to kill someone in the F rank, even if they don’t have any healing ability.

Maybe shooting them in the head will kill them, but if they have any ability that grants them defense or healing, then even an unranked would be difficult to kill with a gun.

Even grenades lost their value simply because people can run away faster now. Rocket launchers can only bully the F and E ranks that don’t have good defensive abilities.

A D-rank super will take the rocket to their face and shrug it off. They will be injured, but it won’t matter. Then they will beat the person who shot the rocket at them with the launcher until both they and the launcher have turned into slag. So being an arms dealer is not enough to make one a renowned crime boss anymore.

Of course there are weapon supers who can make these things very dangerous, but they have various abilities that help them produce their own weapons or convert other weapons into their weapon of choice. Either way, selling guns has been relegated to the small league of criminals.

But that doesn’t mean her gang won’t be strong. In fact, things can go sideways if her gang gets involved in the assassination. So he has to research the gang as well as the target.

That’s why he sent a message to the issuer of the mission to send more information while he also searched the league’s archive for information on the metal hell gang.

He made sure to insist on complete and accurate information from the issuer, or he wouldn’t take the mission. He had a lot to gain from this mission, but that didn’t mean he would let himself walk into a death trap. Not after his recent experience with Red Dream.

The issuer sent more information after a day of waiting. The things they sent gave him more idea of how powerful their gang was and its location. He combined that with the information he got from the Villain League’s archive to have a better picture of the gang.

What was in the archive was not specific information about the abilities of the individual members of the gangs. There were mentions of notable members of the gang, but the archive focused more on their achievements.

So he knew their size when they first started, how they have grown over time, the enemies they defeated, or the other gangs that they absorbed.

Rather than specific information, he was able to glean their mode of operation and behaviors. What they were confident it, how they react to enemies, how they conduct business and their level of cooperation and trust. That last part would be important if he plans to infiltrate them.
