2024-10-29 19:42:56The Draco was not a sentient creature in the way that humans can talk, understand, or think about abstract concepts but it was still a living and breathing creature. It had desires, albeit not as complex, like all human beings.
It desired food and had complex enough taste buds to prefer meals from tender meat in comparison to tough meat. It also preferred being in the sunlight as it felt more comfortable in the heat than cold. It enjoyed eating living animals compared to dead carcasses.
And just like any good human parent, the Draco also wanted its true offspring to prosper and grow up to become like him or even better than him. On top of its almost human-like tendencies, it had paternal instincts, something that humans didn’t have.
So, when the Draco

With renewed strength, Elizabeth quickly reached the Draco’s nest. Her eyes widen at the sight of carnage and arson. The Draco’s nest was mostly made out of rock, stone, and dirt so it was generally safe but its surroundings were still made of trees and shrubberies.While that would have been fine since Elizabeth thought that David would have an epic fight with the Draco, she also notice the path leading downward was also burning. In fact, Elizabeth sees a forest fire rage in the distance.Woah, David really let his arsonist out huh?

Evolve to Survive Chapter 33.5: The Soul Part 1
The soul. A concept that has long been created by humans to rationalize their fear of death. It was so humans could tell themselves that there was a life after one’s physical demise. Despite the absence of evidence or proof that proved its existence, people continued to believe in the concept of the soul even after technology advanced to such heights. Fortunately for those believers, the soul did exist. Psionic energy is the primordial source of all of creation. This includes souls but unlike the matter that creation was built upon, souls were purified psionic energy similar to the soul realm, a dimension of beliefs, thoughts, and energy. In the beginning, God created a system wherein the psionic energ

Elizabeth scrunched her face and covered it with one of her free hands when she got closer to the Draco and David. After the explosion, the fire seemed to flourish and it quickly devours the forest. The smoke was thick and the heat was unbearable. Bob looked like he was about to faint while Elizabeth was mostly running on fumes and a very potent drug, one that she was unaware of when it would turn off. She only hoped that it would last until the Draco was dead. The fire consumed everything and Elizabeth was starting to feel suffocated. She could back away but that meant taking a longer route which would surely delay assisting David. If the Draco was the cause of this fire, David couldn’t take one second longer.

In the vast expanse of limitless energy that is the soul realm, an ethereal golden entity flew forth, ignoring the nearby floating planetoids and worlds. It had a goal and thus focused on it. This golden entity didn’t have features similar to a human except for its general body shape of having two legs, two arms, a single torso, and a head. Its silhouette was a blinding golden light that illuminated the general area around it. It was like a moving sun. Despite the light around the golden entity blinding everything that could see it, there was an unmistakable feature that everything that looked at the light could see. The blinding silhouette had eyes. Its eyes seemed to contain the stars of the universe.

“NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” I fucked up. Elizabeth’s mind screamed at her as she rushed forward to grab the evolved super reptile’s neck. With the evolved super reptile focused on David’s arm, Elizabeth catches it by surprise and grabs its neck. She squeezes its neck as hard as she can. The evolved super reptile thrashes with all of its strength but Elizabeth does everything in her power to hold on as tightly as she could. It also helped that she was livid. While choking the super reptile with her entire body, Elizabeth saw David sitting on the ground. He was in shock from losing his arm. The image broke Elizabeth’s

Evolve to Survive Chapter 40.9: Psionic Abilities Part 1
The ability to manipulate psionic energy allows the user to be able to do anything. This is not a metaphor or figure of speech. Someone with enough control and psionic power can warp reality to fit their needs, no matter how crazy their desires are. The greatest example is God/Goddess who theoretically has an infinite amount of control and psionic power thus granting him/her omnipotence. While the entity, called the voice, is powerful, there is no way to properly quantify its psionic ability or if it even uses such a resource. If we assume that the voice is powerful enough to prevent God/Goddess from banishing it from the universe which contradicts God/Goddess' omnipotence, then that means the voice is eithe

When the invasion started, the voice empowered its most loyal servants with unimaginable power that would allow them to dominate all life on Earth. These entities were called conduits, humans with a direct connection to the omnipresent voice. But the chosen were limited both in numbers and strength. The voice wanted new creatures to follow its bidding to quicken the invasion so it gave the conduits the ability to turn the creatures of Earth into monsters that followed their every whim. The conduits used this newfound power to create monsters that followed their will, ranging from petty human desires to causing genocide. Currently, a ma

Kenneth and Peter slowly entered the grocery store. They did their best to keep quiet and not to attract any attention. The entrance was full of husks but most of them were dormant which allowed the duo to walk past them without any problems. The grocery store was abandoned but they were both surprised when they reach the areas where food was stored. Peter’s eyes widen as he sees the grocery store’s state. Instead of being empty which would have been the norm in any apocalypse situation, most of the shop’s contents were still there. Many of them were already spoiled but most of the preserved food was still fine. “Ho-how??”

Evolve to Survive Chapter 39.5: Log Records Part 1
While David has spent less than a year in Foserense, he has logged a lot of information in his divine gift. The log recorded all of David's thoughts and added its own usually more correct ideas. This didn't mean that David had wrong ideas, it's just that the log already had a repository of base information for almost anything. It didn't have information on things that evolved unless David observes the creature for a long period of time or experienced the evolution first-hand. While David logged in an enormous amount of information, these are some of them.
