401. Connection Failed!!!

401. Connection Failed!!!

Alex raised a hand to wipe away non-existent sweat, squinting as he gazed at the zombie Sentry.

He had no idea what he had just experienced. The sheer volume and complexity of the information and data had almost overwhelmed his mind. And this wasn't just anyone—it was Alex, a wizard renowned for his mental fortitude and spiritual power.

[Are you alright, sir?]

Miss Minutes's voice echoed in Alex's mind, pulling his chaotic thoughts back into focus.

"Not really. I'm not even sure what I just received. It felt like cramming the entire curriculum from elementary school to postgraduate studies into a single second."

Alex raised his arm and pressed the heel of his hand against his temple, trying to ease the dull ache pounding in his head.

[Did you notice anything else... anything unusual?]

Miss Minutes asked again, though this time, her voice carried a faint note of panic.

Alex caught the undertone of anxiety in her words and couldn't help but respond with concern.

"What do you mean? Did something go wrong?"

[About that...]

Miss Minutes hesitated for a moment, as though carefully choosing her words, before finally answering.

[Just now, your connection to the Timepad was abruptly severed. Although it lasted only 0.0023 femtoseconds and reestablished immediately, I can confirm there was a brief period where you "disconnected."]

"Disconnected?"

Alex's mouth fell open in surprise, his expression confused.

[Yes. The Timepad's logs show a clear error, though the interruption was so brief the system didn't have time to issue a formal error report.]

As Miss Minutes explained, a faintly glowing, ethereal sheet of paper appeared in front of Alex. It meticulously detailed the automated operations and pathways of the Timepad.

Among the records, one particular entry labeled "Connection Lost" stood out conspicuously, highlighted in bright red to draw Alex's attention.

'How is that even possible?'

The strange data was troubling enough on its own, but now learning that his connection to his "system" had inexplicably failed only deepened Alex's unease.

Since the very beginning, when he first acquired the Timepad and met Miss Minutes, their connection had always been exceptionally stable.

Whether it was traversing the borders of hell or venturing into the DC Universe, even in places where the Timepad technically shouldn't exist, their link had never faltered.

But now, everything had changed.

Alex's initial theories about the corruption were entirely overturned after this encounter. This wasn't some known entity—it was a bizarre energy even he couldn't decipher.

Alex spread his palms, speaking calmly, whether or not Robert could even hear him.

"Coincidentally, I possess a space even stranger than the corruption. Until I figure out how to remove the corruption from you, you'll stay there for a while."

"If you really want something to eat..."

"That place might be just right for you."

Bottomless Abyss Universe – Deadpool Kills the Marvel Universe Dimension

A purple bolt of lightning streaked across the sky.

Dark clouds roiled with ominous energy, and with a thunderous crash from above, every living creature in the city below turned their gaze skyward.

The oppressive force was suffocating. A golden light streaked like a meteor, slamming into the bustling streets of New York City.

The earth trembled violently, and nearby skyscrapers quivered from the impact. Buildings close to the blast zone groaned and toppled rapidly.

Countless windows shattered into fragments, and the air filled with the acrid scent of dust.

The sudden and bizarre intrusion compounded the already crumbling city's devastation. The air rang with the sound of collapsing structures and roaring flames.

Amid the chaos, a single hand shot up from the crater in the ground.

Golden light pierced through the smoke as the zombie Sentry, unable to suppress the hunger gnawing at his core, let out a deafening roar, proclaiming his arrival to the world.

Step by step, he climbed out of the pit. The Sentry licked his lips, a twisted smile spreading across his face.

At that moment, he caught the scent of flesh—a tantalizing aroma—and his only thought was to feast until his insatiable hunger was finally quelled.

At the same time, countless crimson-eyed shadows began emerging from every corner of the city, closing in on the Sentry.

In the air, faint sounds of babies crying and young girls laughing could be heard.

Grotesque monsters composed of human organs and limbs stepped onto the streets, their blood-red eyes glaring eerily. They tilted their heads as they stared at the zombie Sentry.

The horrifying sight would have shaken anyone to their core.

But the zombie Sentry had long discarded any unnecessary emotions. With hunger dominating his mind, he wanted nothing more than to consume every human body before him.

Even if...

Those bodies were grotesquely pieced together.
