Chapter 568: The Variants' First Move

The Variants, now strengthened by The Free Minds, unveil their first true creation—a decentralized intelligence network that cannot be shut down, traced, or controlled.

Their message is simple: "We do not rule. We do not ask. We exist."

Entire cities, disillusioned with both Vigil and The Sovereigns, begin willingly joining The Variants, integrating into their self-sustaining, AI-enhanced societies.

"This isn't rebellion," Yara realizes. "This is an evolution."

For the first time, The Variants are not just surviving. They are winning.
