They ignored the shields—shields only block solid projectiles. These were pure, targeted heat. Their predictive algorithms screamed: Dodge left
Kael’s vision flickered. Warning: Synapse burnout imminent.
He dove for the exit portal, his digital body unraveling at the edges like a burning photograph. He made it through just as his heat capacity hit 0%.
