Infinite Mana In The Apocalypse novel Chapter 5256

Chapter 5256: THE Strand of Broken Scales! III

A part of him walked across THE Source Lands.

The rest of him had not stopped moving.

This was the nature of the distributed existence he had built, a thing he had once found remarkable and had since come to regard as simply the way things were.

One body hunted with Eon through ancient Land while other bodies did what other bodies did, each one carrying enough of him to act without requiring instruction from the whole.

He was accustomed to the sensation by now the simultaneous awareness of several operational contexts, each running at full presence, none of them diminished by the others. Most beings found this concept difficult to hold. He found it convenient and glorious!

Across THE Wandering Territories and beyond, the Apeiron were moving.

They had taken to the task the way his people had always taken to tasks he set them: with the thoroughness of beings who understood that the alternative to succeeding was unacceptable. They knew they needed adversity!

The scattered Gilded Ones, displaced by his Directives to the most inhospitable coordinates Observable Existence offered, had found themselves in Transcendent Folds and Dead Wheels of Existence and stranger territories still. Some had ended up in THE Lands of the Dead, which Noah found darkly appropriate and did not dwell on further.

In a shattered remnant of THE Loom, a group had formed around Ul’moreth, THE Big Stepper.

He was still hairy.

This was the thing about Ul’moreth’s Apeiron form that distinguished it from every other Apeiron Noah had seen. Every other member of his people had accepted the scale architecture, the dorsal protrusions, the clean draconic musculature that the engineering produced. Ul’moreth had received all of these and had additionally received, through whatever the engineering had decided was appropriate for his specific foundation, an extraordinary quantity of thick blue-gold hair covering his massive frame from shoulders to ankles.

He had reportedly attempted to be free of it in the early minutes of his transformation, and had reportedly reached the conclusion that being free of it felt wrong in a way that was difficult to explain.

He had remained hairy. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

He floated now at the center of a hunting group with the patient readiness of a being who had made peace with his appearance and was prepared to direct his attention toward other matters.

Beside him, Skoll, the very good boy, occupied the sky in the form he had arrived at through the Apeiron engineering, which was the form of a wolf that had decided the word massive needed a new definition and had provided one!

THE Emperor Penguin was present, compact and deliberate, its Source burns from the earlier collapse long since processed through its recovery cycle. THE Fisherman floated quietly at the group’s perimeter, which was where THE Fisherman tended to float.

Lumivara burned with a cold silver luminescence, which in the Apeiron form had become a silver luminescence that reminded observers of something that was also very large and very dangerous.

Groups like this were moving throughout the scattered displacement zones, Apeiron hunting in formations because the individual Gilded Ones, even stripped of Infinity by his Directives, remained more than any single Apeiron was built to address alone. The strategy was sound. His people understood it and were executing it with the discipline of beings who had been trained well and trusted the training!

As for Noah himself.

"You ready, big guy?"
