Chapter 911: Chapter 911 - Taming the Fifth Year - Attrition - Final Battle - 10

"Well," Magnus sighed while refocusing on the immediate task, "at least we know we’ve been lazy if this is killing us and he’s doing at least double as much. Let’s continue and hope his plan works as well as he says."

And they continued the work of directing mutant flows through control that the hearts provided.

The manipulation of corrupt creatures that was believed to be uncontrollable now that Yino’s leaders were crystalised but that seemed to be responding to signals the crystals transmitted. Like shepherding livestock through gates, the beasts followed the paths of least resistance following the directions that the hearts signaled for them.

Magnus adjusted the blue core’s position fractionally. Dorian compensated with red core shift. The purple cores pulsed in synchronization...

Below them, in tunnels they couldn’t see, hundreds of mutants adjusted their paths in response to subtle energy gradient changes.

And the twins still complained, but maintained the impossible balance their brother demanded.

Because for all their frustration and fear, they trusted Orion.

Trusted that since he was the brilliant one from their side of the family he knew what he was doing. That the risk would prove worthwhile.

They had to trust that since they didn’t really understand a lot of things and would be lost in the noble’s game without him.

So they didn’t contemplate it. Just focused on the work, on maintaining synchronization that kept everything from exploding.

And deep below, Julius and Zhao remained trapped, fighting against the tide.

Selphira had been with Arturo continuing to put pressure against the rebel forces that had finally entrenched themselves near the ruin.

But the push that had been achieving gradual progress during hours of sustained combat had stopped.

They’d already dismantled several of the smaller groups...

Broken their formations, forced retreats and captured or killed some key commanders.

The momentum had been building. Victory had seemed inevitable with enough sustained effort.

But then something changed in the battle’s dynamics.

An enormous flow of mutants emerged suddenly from the south and from two sources. From the surface and from tunnels descending diagonally just a few dozen meters before what had been their entry route toward the city, from the outermost superficial walls.

Not a minor infiltration but a massive invasion. Thousands of creatures converging from a direction that was now forming a flow cutting directly between Selphira’s group’s most forward position and the objective in the ruins they’d been approaching.
