The Titan from Beyond the Stars

Chapter 2

02: Fantastical Lifeforms

Thanks to the nanosatellites, I detected a large amount of life signatures a few hundred kilometers away. Due to the Singularity suit low on energy, I decided to go in foot so travelling will be much slower. But that wouldn't be a problem as it's been a long time since I've ever admired the beauty of Earth's flora and fauna. No planets were able to match the beauty of Earth, not even Mars or any Terraformed planets could replicate its beauty.

Earth's greeneries were exclusive to its own, there were only a few of it saved in the database but of course, when the stars began to die, none of those documents was able to escape the clutches of entropy. And even if they did, it wouldn't go pass the Black Hole Era. It's a miracle really, how I survive and managed to replicate the universe. All those effort makes it all worth it in the end...

As I admire the long forgotten flora of Earth, my sensors managed to pick up a few hostile life forms nearby. I took out my Materializer and switch it to combat mode as combat goggles collapses onto my eyes, covering my vision in a combat-ready interface.

The goggles let me see the hostile life forms, "About 12 of them, nerves and bone structures; humanoid. Weak points analyzed, engaging." I commented as I tap the side of my goggle to observe their behavioral patterns. "Looks like they're attacking something..." In that moment, I detected a neutral life form getting injured. "Well, here goes."

[Initiating combat mode.]

I ran into the scene as I wasted no time in shooting the hostile life forms, finding myself not caring for their appearance. One of them grabbed my arm and I just swiftly used my elbow to manipulate its joins, locking it into place and shoot it in the head. I ducked down, dodging an incoming lunge and shoot another one recklessly charging from behind before deftly using my leg to sweep the ground behind me to put off balance at the one lunging. It feel down and I lay on my stomach after the sweep before quickly shooting its head.

I turned around and shoot at one that tries to lunge at me before rolling to the side as a couple of them tries to pin me down. Using the momentum, I push myself off the ground before performing backflips and landed on the ground, crouching. With the current seating, I took advantage of it and shoot a few of them. It didn't take long however before about four of them rush towards me. I shoot one on the leg as it stumbles, followed by two but one manages to grasp the situation and jumped over.

Spinning around, I used the momentum to do a complete roundhouse kick as the back of my foot landed perfectly on its jaws, completely dislocating it. I shoot it along with the others that stumbled.

Unless you have the armor level of Aurum Magnatus which is an outdated suit version of my Singularity, you wouldn't survive the blast from the Materializer as it does dematerializes whatever it shoots into subatomic levels. It can even erase energy which makes it a very deadly weapon had not for the existence of dark energy or cosmic energy. Although humanity weren't able to unlock the utmost potential of the energy, it is surmised that the cosmic energy can manipulate laws of physics or destroy it which is why I was able to replicate the universe using it.

Yet, even after having to be able to harness its energy, the entropy couldn't be reversed as it too was powered by cosmic energy so the only way was to escape into a universe I made.

I continued shooting until every single one of them was eliminated. Once I was done, their body littered across and the goggles collapses back, uncovering my vision. I let out a sigh as I look around, whatever I killed seem humanoid enough to be a bit familiar to me. However, their skin are green, they have elongated ears and their clothing suggests that they live primitively.

I raised my eyebrows, "Strange. They're clearly not humans, what are they?" I questioned as changing the mode of the Materializer into scanning mode.

Before I could scan however, I heard a gasp from behind. It was the neutral life form I had detected earlier. Now, what kind of creature does this planet have? I assume they'd be nearly similar to humans in appearance but with the new type of energy, they have undergone a different evolution. So what-
