Reborn: Rise of the Greatest Summoner

391 Tethering at the jaws of death [2]

Thud! Thud!

General Aztog's boots echoed loudly across the cabin as he marched alongside 2 of his Captains towards the direction of the Golden Cicada's med bay.

"What is the condition of the Champion?"

"Umm…"

"Spill it!"

"It's critical sir". Captain Yeoh answered with a grimace.

"The initial scan says he suffered significant radiation which has seeped into his system and affected all of his organs already".

"The only reason why he is alive despite all that is his incredible vitality as a Grade B Super and his unique physiology as a special genetically modified cyborg".

In no time, they arrived before the medical bay where at this moment a group of 6 highly qualified Doctors cloaked in white coats surrounded the Champion and were attending to him.

They were not the only ones attending to him, Captain Chan was also present as with his Magic Staff, this Nak Super was already hard at work.

At this moment, he was no longer simply activating a Magic ability, it was much more complicated than that as a book hovered before him.

Under the will of his magic power, the pages of the book flipped.

And as they flipped, he chanted the incantations recorded in them.

The atmosphere in the med bay was filled with concentrated arcane power.

While the Grade C Captain did his fair share of keeping the Champion alive, the highly qualified Doctors also focused on their jobs and did their thing.

They looked at the projection of the med bay A.I.

(Body State of Patient!)

(Severe Radiation Burns!)

(Multiple Organ Failure!)

(Brain Deterioration!)

The man who had the most crests in his lab coat who also seemed to be the highest-ranking Doctor of the 6 ordered the others.

"Plug the Anti-Radiation Tubes into his body".

"Inject him with the cell regeneration super grade stimulant!"

"Inject him with super grade adrenaline".

"Connect an oxygen tube to his mouth".

"Cloak him with the Detox Cloak".

At his orders, the other Doctors went to work as they employed different high-level techniques and measures in order to save the Champion's life.

At this moment, not only Champion Onana's life was tethering at the jaws of death, the life of everyone present in this fleet was also on the line.

If Champion Onana died, they automatically lost their Nak Citizenship.

They would instantly become exiles of the powerful State.

The beeping sound of the computer felt to most of them like the trumpet sounds of judgement day. The only question was that after rapture, would they be going to the coveted heaven or the dreadful hell?

Sweat filled General Aztog's face as he watched quietly.

'Please, don't die on me!'

'You were so ambitious, you spoke so highly of yourself, you can't die now!'

'You haven't even accomplished 10% of your dreams!'

'If you die, I swear I'll kill you!' He gritted his teeth.

He clenched his fists as his palms turned watery.

For 4 straight hours, he stood outside the med bay as the Doctors worked while Captain Chan kept on expending his mana rampantly while continuously chanting incantations to do his fair share of keeping the Champion alive.

At the 5th hour, the beeping sound of the machine changed.

Beep!

General Aztog's originally drooping eyes turned sharp as he raised his head to look. He raised his head just in time to notice the eyebrows of the Champion twitch, then familiar blue and red eyes slowly opened.

His eyes felt groggy and dizzy.

"W-where am I?"

No one answered, they all descended in their different worlds of euphoria even as they were afraid of making noise that would deteriorate his condition.

Outside the med bay, General Aztog's clenched fists clenched even tighter as he slowly dropped to his knees. 'He survived…'

'He survived'. He heaved a deep sigh of relief.

3 weeks later after the battle in Planet Titania…

CRACK!

A huge crack spread through the surface of Planet Titania and from this crack jumped out the gigantic Space Bug, the Emperor of Planet Titania.

At this moment, the gigantic Space Bug spotted some changes.

Apart from becoming a few hundred meters longer, including its deadly tail, it also grew a single horn that extended from it's head. Every mutation was taking this deadly Monster farther from its base form as a Bug.

Apart from it's external changes though, there were even more internal changes and they were the most pivotal in it's newfound strength.

"SCREECH…!!!!!!!"

It shrieked loudly as the sound reverberated across the Radioactive Giant.

This was the shriek of his return.

"I AM BACK!"

"MY SUBJECTS, ARISE AND FACE YOUR EMPEROR!"

Instantly, across Planet Titania, it seemed like a switch was finally put on as the hundreds of millions of inactive Space Bugs finally became active again.

Fluttering their wings, they rose up even as they started glowing in their red lights again.

Red lights shone all across the gigantic surface of Planet Titania.

They remained prostrating before their Godfather.

"MY SUBJECTS, THE TIME HAS FINALLY COME".

"FOR A LONG TIME, WE THOUGHT WE WERE ALONE IN THE RORONOA STAR SYSTEM BUT THE GOD OF MACHINERY LED THOSE FOOLS TO US".

"IT IS A SIGN, A SIGN THAT WE SHOULD START OUR CONQUEST".

"THE SAME WAY THAT OLD GEEZER LED HIS ARMY THROUGH THE STARS, CONQUERED PLANETS AND ESTABLISHED HIMSELF AS AN EMPEROR FOR AGES, IT IS FINALLY MY TURN".

"IT IS THE TIME FOR I, AGRONA, TO ESTABLISH HIMSELF AS THE NEW EMPEROR AND START MY OWN REIGN".

"MY SUBJECTS, FOLLOW ME INTO THE STARS".

"BECOME MY WEAPONS OF CONQUEST, JOIN ME IN MY CONQUEST JOURNEY".

"CHIRP!" "CHIRP!" "CHIRP!"

The Space Bugs finally responded in their crazy numbers as they started chirping and chittering excitedly.

With that, the gigantic Space Bug finally lifted off the Planet.

Spreading his gigantic wings, he led the way as he beat the gravity of Planet Titania and started rising into the skies. After a dozen minutes, he broke Planet Titania's gravity and finally entered space.

"I…, MISS…, SPACE".

The conquest officially began.
