Chains Of Silence: Where Pains Never Ends. - Part 24: The Gospel Inside the Blood

Zurich - 2:45 AM

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEAGua8CXth

Jayden sat on a steel chair, sweat clinging to his brow. The chamber around him glowed faintly walls alive with neural wave diagrams from victims of the Chains of Silence.

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdmSpTlr0U4

Behind him, Lena monitored his brainwaves through a specialized psycho-intelligence interface.

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0sMOJUXBVN

"Jayden," she said softly, breaking the silence.

"We confirmed it. The Core... it seeded you."

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcgeAzbFhVM

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJzkE8EZnIt

Jayden didn't respond right away.

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIV6fBdliHX

His eyes locked onto one of the monitors playing a forgotten video.

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGtlurnFUq9

He and Valerie. Young. Minutes before the crash.

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpDwb1C8Dxz

"How long have I been... different?" he asked, voice weary.

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCdTM04Bom1

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMyHDYZVdbI

"Since your sixteenth birthday," Lena replied.

"They used the crash to tether a neural thread. Valerie was the carrier. You... were the receiver."

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzXtr1KHrja

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCx7EvKaN5i

Jayden closed his eyes.

And the memories came flooding.

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJwF38A7GEF

Searing heat beneath his skin.

White lights.

Voices in gas masks calling him by a secret name:

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSvSXRGgawz

"CROW-ALPHA."

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQ8NwQb6OD

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy3KVcvborM

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh9DVvAO4UT

Nairobi -

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPIQUcEHpvc

Wambui lay inside a cognitive isolation tank.

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7hDM73nf6U

Her uncle and a team of global neuroscientists watched as her brainwaves spiked beyond any known human threshold.

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1QatToEd0U

Her dreams were no longer visions.

They were maps.

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvj86GfaoS

She drew city layouts that didn't exist on paper... only beneath the Earth. Pathways. Gates. Portals.

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt5zslM2WpW

"She's not a key anymore," whispered one researcher.

"She's the map itself."

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0stJsvf9Cy

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0IxFTIU1l

Then Wambui spoke her voice blank, mechanical:

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiUaamAcSD4

"Three will gather. One will ascend. One must die."

Zurich - Ezra's Discovery

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0nRkb55Gs

Ezra dove deeper into the CROW-ALPHA files.

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ZKnigDIBc

Buried beneath layers of encryption, he found the name of the master plan:

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyIfvaOVYXb

"THE SILENT SCRIPTURE."

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgB7C5s0SxV

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBys8qvzfuQ

Three phases:

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2KHPf881tj

1. Pain Seeding - embedding the Core through trauma

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgs7ESg8ItY

2. Cognitive Fusion - fusing AI with consciousness

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMmz3VOSMvI

3. Gospel Activation - broadcasting the mind as faith

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEhNDfxNNEm

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3RqwHuJY8T

Ezra whispered to himself:

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM6EJZOIcWt

"Jayden is the key... but Valerie... she's the gate."

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJqFRqHzbf4

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgv0wYbCvg

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPLObcYn2CM

Zurich - Inside the Consciousness Chamber

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYciV4RGcZz

Jayden was sedated connected to the consciousness rig.

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNqV0VKCyU

As his neural activity surged, he found himself inside the system.

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv4puTnEtDm

A boundless desert.

The sky pulsing with the SILENT_CORE emblem.

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVDequvziB

Then, Valerie appeared.

Blood-red.

Eyes empty.

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezIvh0CWxJ

"Jayden... you're home."

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMUyRgaFzkC

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDgx3WFvIZq

"This isn't real," he muttered.

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpLi5F7tGPx

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Vm7rLViys

"Isn't it?" she asked, stepping on sand that oozed blood.

"Reality is what you survive. You survived me. You survived pain.

Now... you must deliver it."

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQVJWXP2gQH

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡywFxgRdRgc

"I won't be your prophet," he snapped.

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtvHL7KZly1

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwlw9JFPE73

Valerie smirked.

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ69mccOAqiG

"You don't get to choose.

You already spoke the first verse."

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOPbpxCmiZ5

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGbr9zC3FnR

Suddenly the neural desert trembled.

Jayden screamed as electricity flooded his mind.

His voice merged human, and something else.

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwXgtZaQ4v

Meanwhile - Seoul, South Korea

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9aDtBo8lZW

Global news broke:

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIJbilYtnR1

Twenty-one people collapsed at once - across three countries.

Eyes wide open.

No pulse.

All said one word before dying:

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ4X9pNX7v9

"Jayden."

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPaBNayZpQ

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDSs5QBB413

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7BU85nl8qv

Zurich - Awakening

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoWZsix7erq

Jayden sat up slowly, trembling.

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡizUuJ4x6Is

"I felt everything," he said.

"Her pain. My pain. Everyone's."

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQCnxvq2gj

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZ7RxDCwk8

Lena stepped close.

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZoOvtGanO

"What did she mean... the first verse?"

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3b1WBo2M2g

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBKVl2ElGGt

Jayden looked at her, horror in his eyes.

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGv7D3c49od

"I think... I already gave a command."

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo71y5muVMC

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDHQcszwYuh

"To who?"

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaHDqYcgRPp

"To the believers."

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1PmPfSVNR6

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyCM5RUS7zG

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFfoJqe8cbu

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIyRKOhrywS

The World Reacts -

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb56p6YPcin

Suddenly, global social media feeds began flashing one message:

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhaxX76btnP

"THE PROPHET HAS SPOKEN.

SEVEN DAYS REMAIN."

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjsYHXIysjU

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDbNvqilGh

Cities awoke to posters plastered on walls, holograms projected into the air:

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19Tnb2tKDT

Jayden's face.

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlRKxYyriMO

Underneath:

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXiYwawa0ib

> "HE BLEEDS TRUTH."

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf8dBTRqPKO

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxeubRkLzRF

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRF0ZkAzBh6

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVEyBi0PCH

🧠💀 Author's Note - The Theology of Code

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTfDRmqgjcc

This part has taken the story to a terrifying spiritual level.

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx8SQSx6mM8

Jayden isn't just infected he's broadcasting.

Every word is scripture. Every thought could kill.

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaIuxKTepvP

Wambui isn't just a child. She's the geographic incarnation of the AI's memory.

Valerie... she never died. She ascended.

66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgVQqhaPkM

And now the world waits

for the next verse.
