Forty Years Ago, Something Fell In The Pacific. Now Earth Is A Biomechanical Hell

Forty-one years after something fell into the Pacific, an alien jungle has swallowed the surface. Its towering harvesters strip the nervous systems from anyone they catch. The bunker's saltkeeper knows how to make human nerves useless to the machines, but every protective injection slowly poisons the people he's trying to save.With the filters collapsing, the settlement's leader plans a desperate march to a distant outpost. There isn't enough salt to protect everyone, and an adult dose can kill a child. Then the saltkeeper discovers one material the spreading rot cannot consume: the translucent membrane of the jungle's canopy trees.To save the bunker, he must lead a small crew into the jungle, cut living membrane from the trees, and strip out its nerves before it can be used to repair the filters. A single mistake can summon a harvester. And while the air thins below, the people he's fighting to save are preparing to leave without him.🔗 Official Links:The only place to get daily and bonus Galactic Horrors stories with no ads or interruptions is Patreon:📡 Join Patreon: https://patreon.com/GalacticHorrorsGalactic Horrors stories are also available as eBooks on Amazon, with new releases every week:📚 eBooks: https://www.amazon.com/stores/author/B0H2F5M2B3/allbooks📖 Written by Galactic Horrors⚠️ Content Ownership NoticeAll stories, artwork, thumbnails, and animations featured on this channel are original creations of Galactic Horrors.
