They rembered everything that had happened in the half a second that the Ti Lock erased. That ans they can use the ti loop to acquire infinite ti while the world will be the sa around them. So using the Ti Lock is not a complete waste of effort.
Unfortunately, so did ANNIHILATION. As an ABSOLUTE, ANNIHILATION is an entity unbound by ti. It too rembered everything that happened in that half a second that ti was rewound.
Maybe things would be different if ANNIHILATION were asleep. But it is awake and active now. It can never forget what has happened to it.
It said to them with a sneer, "ANNIHILATION THE GIVE. IS END UP. INEVITABLE IS YOUR. FATE NEAR STRUGGLE."
Ti was rewound so the damage to their existence rewound to the ti just before they gained control of the Ti Lock.
But ANNIHILATION also rembered what happened. This ant that the rate at which they were being destroyed by the power of ANNIHILATION in their bodies hadn't reduced at all.
ANNIHILATION is infinite. Anything that isn't infinite will be destroyed instantly by it. They were not destroyed instantly because they have the potential for infinity.
But even if they were also infinite, they wouldn't be immune to ANNIHILATION because so infinities are bigger than others.
For example, the set of natural numbers starts from 1 and ends at infinity. So the set of natural numbers is infinite.
But the set of whole numbers is 0 the set of natural numbers. Therefore, the set of whole numbers is 1 infinity. So the set of whole numbers is greater than the set of natural numbers.
This difference in the size of infinity is why ANNIHILATION will still be able to affect them even if they were truly infinite. ANNIHILATION is a bigger infinity, so it is stronger than them and is always growing stronger.
They too are growing stronger by the mont, but the rate at which ANNIHILATION is growing stronger than them is higher. That difference in growth and strength is why even though they can resist ANNIHILATION, the rate at which they are dying to it is becoming faster and faster.
But they didn't give up their struggle because the parts of their existence that had been ANNIHILATED had reverted to what it was before they gained control of the Ti Lock.
So while they were dying faster regardless of reverting ti, they could revert the damage to their existence to so extent and buy themselves ti. As long as they keep ahead of the rate of destruction, they will remain alive.
The power of ANNIHILATION is chasing after them despite the reversal of ti. Its infinity is clashing with their infinity across ti and space.
This dynamic ans that the ti they can have with the ti loop is not actually infinite. If they don't grow faster than ANNIHILATION destroys them, they will die.
It is clear that the Ti Lock won't save them. They can only rely on themselves to save themselves from the fate of being ANNIHILATED.
As the void universe began to collapse around them, they looked around themselves for the solution to their problems. All they have to use are their aspects. When combined with the knowledge they got from Monarch High Heaven, they all ca to one conclusion about what to do.
They began to use the aspect of Knowledge and Entropy to analyze the power destroying them. They used that knowledge with the aspect of Probability to direct their Evolution towards improving the aspect of Independence. What they were doing was essentially finding a way to enhance the aspect of Independence in an attempt to make it powerful enough to help them resist the power of ANNIHILATION.
Their ultimate goal was to transform the aspect of Independence into an ABSOLUTE, as that is the only way they know to resist another ABSOLUTE.
But they couldn't stop there. They knew that if they wanted to maximize their chances of survival, they had to grow powerful enough to resist ANNIHILATION better. But anything could happen between now and then.
They could die before they achieved their goal, so they had to find a way to increase their chances of success.
Two things ca to mind. The first thing was that they had to increase the size of their existence so that they wouldn't be destroyed quickly.
The second thing was to speed up the proof evolution by using the aspect of Ti.
Speeding up the process of evolution is a very difficult, if not impossible, thing to do because they are already trying their best to evolve. All of their energy and power is dedicated to evolution. They will need to divert so of that energy to the aspect of Ti to speed things up.
But the aspect of Ti is more expensive to use than the aspect of Evolution. This difference becos much wider because of how large their existence is. After all, the bigger they are, the more energy they will need to speed up their ti.
Diverting so of their energy to the aspect of Ti will slow down their evolution in a way that the increase in ti won't be able to make up for it. It can be done, but it isn't worth it to prioritize speeding up their ti over committing to evolution.
The best solution is to find an external source of energy to fuel the aspect of Ti. This will let them eat their cake and have it, as it will allow them to dedicate all of their power and energy to evolution while also speeding up the process of evolution.
So they began infecting everything around them, assimilating it and devouring it. The Will of the void universe is no more, so the void universe has beco ownerless. It is crumbling apart, but it is still full of energy and power that can help their situation.
Besides, the void universe contains powerful artifacts like the corridor of worlds and powerful entities like archons, usurpers, and guardians. If they can assimilate all of this, they might beco half as powerful as the void universe at its peak.
