2 months later, deep in unexplored space…
The lone spaceship that hovered here a few months ago was gone.
Only asteroids now filled this location in space, but amid this diamond formation of asteroids, a new asteroid that was not there before hid.
This was a gigantic oval-shaped asteroid that blend seamlessly with the others. It looked like a normal asteroid but it was a chanical construct.
This was one of Admiral Zhao's greatest chanic constructs.
It was a chanical city housing an army of chanical soldiers.
After President Dunk's decision to wait for a further 3 months, Admiral Zhao took on the job of watching over this special hidden inheritance of the Nak State.
To prevent suspicions was why he brought this chanical construct, 99.9% of scanners available to the Nak and Ackermann States could not discover this chanic city, it was that hidden.
At this mont, the chanical soldiers inside this chanic city kept on working hard, doing different activities to power the scanners of this city.
They scoured the surrounding hundreds of kiloters in space in search of any signs indicating that the target was back.
The target was the summoner, Legolas.
This was the normal job given by their creator, and their army Captain, the chanical Canon Launcher Pok, was the leader of this city and commander of this special operation.
At this mont though, panic was seeping into this chanical city.
{Radioactivity Levels: 88%...}
{Spatial Storm: 46%...}
{Temporal Storm: 68%...}
{Asteroid Activity: Unstable}
***
{WARNING! Temporal energy has exceeded safety limits!}
{WARNING!}
{WARNING!}
…
Pok was a tiny looking chanical soldier.
In this chanical city where the average soldier was taller than any human or Nak warrior out there, Pok stood at just 3 feet tall.
Despite his size, his chanical face was the unsmiling one of a stern commander. This was not even his most intimidating aspect.
His most intimidating aspect was his weapon, the Star Crusher.
This canon launcher was over 50 tis bigger than Pok.
And despite the ridiculous size of his weapon, Pok calmly held it on his shoulders even as it dwarfed him.
No one dared mock him despite how funny it looked.
The chanical soldiers were used to it.
At this mont though, Pok had an aggressive frown on his face that made him look even more intimidating. Things were spiraling out of control.
Since being sent on this mission, everything had been going smooth-sailing, they managed to stay hidden always despite the amount of stray pirate warships and rcenaries that had passed this region within these 2 months.
Today though, a sudden end was brought to their smooth-sailing days.
For 2 months, from it's previous concentration of 56%, the temporal energy in this region of space only increased by 2% which was already frightening in normal circumstances but today everything changed.
Just 2 hours ago, there was an incredible spike in temporal energy.
Within just an hour, the temporal energy percentage increased by 3%.
In the next hour, it increased by a staggering 7%!
This was crazy!
This was what brought the panic and it showed no signs of slowing down.
{WARNING! Temporal energy concentration has increased by 1%!}
Pok's blue chanical eyes flickered aggressively.
"Give data!" He demanded.
"Give statistics!" He felt restless.
Data was given to him and he scoured through them rapidly. "This is definitely not a naturally occurring phenonon and it nothing affected it from outside either, which ans…"
This chanical soldier's eyes glead. "What affected it ca from inside".
{WARNING! Temporal energy concentration has increased by 2%!}
{Temporal Storm: 71%...}
His blue chanical eyes narrowed.
2 minutes later…
{WARNING! Temporal energy concentration has increased by 3%!}
{Temporal Storm: 74%...}
Pok's eyes widened.
"Activate the city thrusters!" He roared.
"We've leaving!"
"We're escaping!"
HUM…!
With a loud humming sound, the hibernating asteroid jerked to life.
Its thrusters released energy as this asteroid rose up from it's initial position, instantly this asteroid started picking up speed, intent on escaping from this region but it was already too late…, it happened.
{WARNING! Temporal energy concentration has increased by &%!}
{Temporal Storm: 81%...!}
{WARNING! Signs of a temporal storm has been detected!}
Pok's chanical eyes widened to their limits, he stared.
{WARNING! You have been caught in a spatial storm!}
Pok beca desperate as he looked around, he roared. "Protect yourself…!" He paused mid-sentence.
BZZZZ…!
A red energy aggressively swept through this spaceship.
Pok was in the process of aiming his Star Crusher to try resisting when this energy swept through this spaceship, and he paused including everyone else.
When looked at from outside, this whole region froze in ti as the red energy spread through it, it was like ti froze but it still ticked.
It was scary.
Inside the asteroid chanical city, ti froze but due to Pok's power, he did not lose total control over his awareness.
He could not move but his perception was active.
He watched everything that happened from a third person perspective.
Then…
BZZZZ…!
Another wave of red energy swept across this spaceship.
BOOM!
Everything was ground to pieces by this red wave.
The chanical city, including all its chanical soldier inhabitants, including Pok were ground to gray chanical particles like ash.
Everything was dead!
This red wave did not just affect the chanical city, it affected everything.
All the asteroids and space debris were ground to dust.
1,000 kiloters away from here, an energy-lifeform Space Beast road, this beast was caught in the red wave as it disappeared like it was erased from existence.
This was horrifying power…
If this was inside a well-developed planet, billions of lives would have been wiped out in an instant.
Heck, not even the planet would have been spared.
This was the power of a temporal storm…, and it was only the beginning.
BZZZZ!
Another eruption of red energy and everything returned.
Ti rewind.
All the asteroids returned.
The chanical city also returned, including Pok.
Pok's eyes were widened in horror.
He was aware.
He could not move but he saw the red energy sweep through him as he died. He didn't feel anything else again, only terror as everything turned dark.
Then, an instant later, he was revived.
Pok did not understand what was going on.
"Is this a spatial storm?!" This intelligent chanical soldier asked in horror.
BZZZZ…!
The red temporal energy ca again.
BOOM!
Everything was ground to dust again.
Pok died again.
Minutes later…
BZZZZ…!
Another eruption of energy and everything returned again.
Ti rewound again.
Pok was horrified…, he was traumatized.
He tried to contact his creator but he received error feedback.
He and every thing else here was stuck in a ti loop.
A ti loop of death and revival.
BZZZZ!
Pok and everything were ground to dust again, he died again.
10 minutes after this phenonon occurred, 10,000 kiloters from the location of the original diamond-shaped formation of asteroids, a portal opened and from this portal ca out a warrior chanic geared in a thick chanic suit.
Admiral Zhao gave his safety the outmost priority at this mont.
Inside his chanic suit, his eyes glead.
"A temporal storm!" He muttered in fanatism as his eyes glowed.
Bzzz!
chanic energy sizzled as from this thick chanic suit, protected by the chanic energy, different state-of-the-art scanners were launched into space.
{Engaging Ultimate Scanner…}
{Ultimate Scanner Online!}
{Engaging deep scan!}
HUM!
Admiral Zhao did not just deploy scanners, he also deployed powerful chanical gadgets that he designed on the spot a few minutes after he discovered what was transpiring here.
These special gadgets were able to marginally absorb temporal energy.
BZZZ!
Another red wave of energy erupted.
Everything turned to dust again but Admiral Zhao survived after losing more than half of his mana points instantly having focused on defending for his life.
Despite this distance, he was still affected this much despite being one of the strongest Calamity Grade Supers of the Nak State.
Planet Gorr, Emperor Gustacus Dodomaniac's palace…
At this mont, aggressive red energy surrounded a certain human This was the power of a temporal storm!
Despite losing mana points, Admiral Zhao was not scared, he was excited, the look in his eyes was like that of a scientist who finally found the ultimate test subject that he had been pursuing for centuries.
BZZZZ…!
The red energy wave again, everything returned.
Pok was going through the worst trauma of his chanical life.
…
Planet Gorr, Emperor Gustacus Dodomaniac's palace…
At this mont, aggressive red energy surrounded a certain human as more and more energy was sapped out of the body of the Titan Emperor's corpse.
The corpse slowly beca emaciated as more energy left it.

"BOOM…!"
Red energy erupted with Legolas at the center.
His eyes were closed in concentration.
His long hair blew as the red energy induced wind around him. He seed like a Warlock in the process of unleashing a dark curse at this mont as red energy flooded his body even as they flowed under his control.
Seeing this, a certain Emperor's consciousness' eyes glead.
Emperor Gustacus Dodomaniac was excited.
