Chapter 47: Selected Target – Jab Jungle Tumhe Nahi, Poora System Dekhta Hai
Zameen par girte hi Pankaj ke muscles ek pal ke liye lock ho gaye the।
Impact itna strong tha ki uski saans bhi half second ke liye ruk si gayi।
Phir dheere-dheere breathing wapas aayi।
"ghhh…"
Usne apna haath zameen par rakha aur uthne ki koshish ki।
Sharir heavy tha…
lekin toot nahi raha tha।
Ye pehle jaisa pain nahi tha।
Ye recalibration pain tha।
Jaise body kisi naye level ko accept kar rahi ho।
Pankaj dheere se khada hua।
Usne apne aas-paas dekha।
Forest wahi tha…
lekin ab uski feeling alag thi।
Jaise jungle usse dekh raha ho…
aur ab usse ignore nahi kar raha ho।
"Selection…"
Usne dheere se kaha।
"Main select hua…"
Aur tabhi—
uske dimag me ek strange flicker hua।
Jaise koi invisible system ne usko scan kiya ho।
BEEP…
Ek faint sound uske mind me echo hua।
Pankaj instantly alert ho gaya।
"ye kya tha?"
Aur tabhi—
air me ek transparent interface jaisa flash hua।
Lekin wo fully visible nahi tha…
sirf fragments jaise glitch ho rahe ho।
[UNKNOWN SIGNAL DETECTED]
[CLASSIFICATION PROCESSING…]
Pankaj ne aankhen narrow ki।
"System…"
"ya kuch aur?"
Interface flicker karta raha।
Aur phir suddenly stabilize hua।
[SUBJECT: PANKAJ]
[STATUS: ACTIVE]
[CONDITION: EVOLUTIONARY INSTABILITY]
Pankaj ka heart beat tez ho gaya।
"Ye mujhe…"
"direct scan kar raha hai…"
Aur tabhi—
next line appear hui।
[SELECTED CANDIDATE CONFIRMED]
Silence।
Jungle bhi jaise momentarily freeze ho gaya ho।
Pankaj ka expression change hua।
"Selected candidate…"
"matlab main ab…"
"target hoon…"
Aur tabhi—
interface glitch hone laga।
Jaise koi external force usko override kar raha ho।
[WARNING]
[EXTERNAL FACTION DETECTED]
"Faction?"
Pankaj ne repeat kiya।
Aur usi moment—
interface abruptly vanish ho gaya।
"ghhh…"
Uske sir me halka pain hua।
Jaise connection forcefully cut kiya gaya ho।
Pankaj ne apna sir pakad liya।
"system stable nahi hai…"
"ya main unstable hoon…"
Aur tabhi—
forest me ek door branch snap sound aayi।
"CRACK…"
Pankaj instantly alert hua।
Slow footsteps…
lekin human nahi lag rahe the।
Multiple directions se movement feel ho raha tha।
"Again…"
Usne apni stance li।
"ab kya aaya hai…"
Aur tabhi—
4 figures trees ke beech se emerge hue।
Lekin ye beasts nahi the।
Ye humanoid silhouettes the…
lekin fully human bhi nahi।
Unke bodies par dark armor-like layers thi…
aur unke face partially covered the।
"Tracking unit…"
Pankaj ne instantly sense kiya।
Unme se ek aage aaya।
Uski voice calm thi…
lekin emotionless।
"Candidate identified."
Pankaj ne seedha jawab diya।
"Main candidate nahi hoon…"
Silence।
Dusra figure halka sa head tilt karta hai।
"Resistance noted."
Teesra slowly bolta hai—
"Instability level high hai…"
"termination probability 62%…"
Pankaj ka expression hard ho gaya।
"Termination?"
Chautha figure move karta hai।
Uske haath me ek device jaisa structure glow kar raha tha।
"Extraction protocol initiate karna hai…"
Pankaj ne instantly samajh liya—
ye normal fight nahi hai।
Ye capture operation hai।
"Main kisi ko bhi capture nahi hone dunga…"
Aur tabhi—
pehla figure attack karta hai।
Speed beast jaisi thi…
lekin controlled aur precise।
"SHHH!"
Pankaj barely dodge karta hai।
Second attack instant follow-up deta hai।
"BOOM!"
Pankaj side me hit hota hai…
aur tree se takra jata hai।
"Strong…"
Usne daant bheenche।
Teesra aur chautha ab position lock kar rahe the।
Formation circle ban raha tha।
"Same pattern…"
"selection field jaisa…"
Pankaj ka dimaag fast chal raha tha।
"ye log beasts nahi…"
"trained operatives hain…"
Aur tabhi—
device wale figure ne energy release ki।
"THMMMM…"
Ground par invisible pressure spread hua।
Pankaj ka body momentarily freeze ho gaya।
"Ghh…"
"movement restriction…"
Uske muscles lock hone lage…
jaise gravity suddenly double ho gayi ho।
"Anti-movement field…"
Pankaj ne struggle kiya…
lekin body respond nahi kar rahi thi।
"Damn…"
Figure slowly aage aaya।
"Candidate will be extracted."
Aur tabhi—
Pankaj ke dimag me flash aaya।
Evolution instability…
energy flow…
body adaptation…
"Main freeze nahi ho sakta…"
"agar main ruk gaya…"
"to main dead ho jaunga…"
Usne apni aankhen band ki।
Aur ek deep breath li।
"Accept…"
Aur usi moment—
uski body me energy surge hua।
Evolution system react kiya…
aur muscles ne forcibly control regain kiya।
"CRACK!"
Ground par crack hua…
aur Pankaj ne apni body free kar li।
Figures shock hue।
"Impossible…"
Pankaj ne first operative par attack kiya।
"THUD!"
Wo piche gir gaya।
Second ne strike kiya…
lekin Pankaj ne intercept kiya aur counter diya।
"BOOM!"
Third aur fourth ab aggressive ho gaye।
Fight chaotic ho gayi।
Lekin is baar Pankaj panic nahi kar raha tha।
Wo analyze kar raha tha—
"har attack predictable hai…"
"system-based combat hai…"
Usne ek opening find ki।
Aur device wale figure ke paas direct dash kiya।
"Stop him!"
Lekin late tha।
Pankaj ne device par hit kiya।
"CRACK!"
Energy field destabilize ho gaya।
"NO!"
Anti-gravity pressure collapse hone laga।
Pankaj ne use moment ka use kiya aur distance create kiya।
Figures regroup karne lage…
lekin system already broken tha।
"Extraction failed…"
Device flicker karne laga…
aur sab figures suddenly retreat mode me chale gaye।
"Retreating…"
"candidate unstable but dangerous…"
Aur agle hi moment—
wo sab vanish ho gaye।
Silence।
Pankaj wahin khada tha…
heavy breathing ke saath।
"Main…"
"ab sirf jungle ka part nahi…"
"main kisi system ka variable hoon…"
Aur door jungle me—
ek unknown observer shadow slowly move kar rahi thi।
lekin is baar wo paas nahi aaya।
sirf observe karke ruk gaya।
