Metaverse of Mechas

Chapter 80: : Blood of the Forgotten



📘 Chapter 80

🌌 Scene 1: The Crimson Harvester

Location: Sector-3 — Former Zenith Tower Grounds

The humanoid alien steps into the crumbling tower ruins. His armor pulses with crimson Krono—not a color known to Earth's system. It's older… primordial.

As citizens flee in chaos, he raises his hand.

Krono threads—thousands of them—begin to drain from surrounding mechas, guild tech, and even people.

Their users collapse. Some die instantly.

Alien (in Zethronian): "Harvest Protocol initiated. 3% saturation complete."

A broadcast echoes through the sky in every language:

"To the inhabitants of Terra-Solis… return the Key, or drown in the Crimson Cleansing."

👥 Scene 2: The Side Alliance

Location: Hidden Mecha Engineering Den — Underground Haven

Zake and Zui arrive at an abandoned facility beneath Old Sector-9, guided by AURA's map.

There, they meet a group of outcast engineers:

Kero, a stuttering genius once expelled from the Academy.Jinrai, a silent ex-warrior with cybernetic arms.Ishka, a rebel with a modified white-core mecha made from alien tech scraps.

Kero (wide-eyed): "Wait… you're the generators?"

Zui (coldly): "We don't know what we are yet."

Zake studies a broken schematic titled MK-ZP.001.

AURA confirms it—Project Zethron Prime. A mecha blueprint made for Krono-born humans.

Jinrai: "They killed everyone who tried to build it. Said it was too dangerous…"

Zake: "We're rebuilding it."

🧩 Scene 3: The Traitor's Trail

Back at Guild Central, Zeron and Serin sneak into the server vaults using Serin's false credentials.

They break into Halberd's confidential files.

Zeron: "We find out who placed the bounty—and why."

They find classified footage:

A memory of Zui's birth, not in a hospital—but in a hidden lab labeled "Project KR-Soul".A signed consent form with Director Halberd's name.And finally… an encrypted contract between Halberd and The Obsidian Crest—the alien faction leader.

Zeron breathes heavily.

Zeron: "He's been working with them this whole time…"

Suddenly, an explosion erupts behind them.

Halberd's voice over the intercom:

"Ah, my loyal spy… and the hero who doesn't know what he is. Welcome to the final phase."

🛡️ Scene 4: The Masked Warrior

Outside the ruins, Zeron is cornered by a lone figure clad in silver-and-black armor, wearing a half-mask.

His Krono is purple, darker than Zeron's awakening aura.

They clash.

Their mechas resonate.

The sky vibrates.

Zeron is nearly overwhelmed.

The masked man speaks mid-battle:

"You don't even know the truth of your blood, Zeron."

He tears off the half-mask.

Zeron freezes.

Zeron (shocked): "You're… me."

Masked Warrior: "No. I'm your brother. The one they erased."

💥 Scene 5: Bloodline Memory

As they battle, their Krono synchronizes briefly, triggering an ancestral flashback.

Zeron sees:

His mother, wounded, hiding two infants.One is given to the Guild.One taken by Halberd.A final whisper from his mother: "One to lead. One to destroy."

Masked Warrior: "My name is Zarkel. I'm not your enemy, brother… but I'm not your ally either. Choose your path, or be erased with the rest."

He vanishes using spatial Krono displacement.

🔮 Scene 6: Zui's Awakening

Back underground, as the mecha core nears completion, Zui begins to seize.

Cracks of white-and-gold Krono burst from her body.

AURA panics.

AURA: "Her core is overloading. This is not normal Krono—it's Divine-class."

Kero: "That's not possible. Krono doesn't go beyond Purple."

Zake holds her, afraid.

Zui (whispering in another language): "Zethron… calls… us home."

Her eyes glow white, and the facility shakes.
