1728 Dankin, The Invincible!
Chronos forcefully slamd his palm onto the ground, causing his veins, etched with intricate clock inscriptions, to surge forward without delay!
These veins were from his own body and he could control them to twist and turn through spaceti itself, making evasion a challenge of near impossibility!
As they wrapped around Dankin's limbs, the air around him thickened, and ti stretched, significantly slowing his movents!
Plix seized the mont. With a flick of his wrist, a spatial bullet burst forth, aiming straight for Dankin's chest.
The rcenaries' pupils thinned out in focus, seemingly planning to collectively strike the instant the bullet landed on Dankin.
Yet, as it neared, Dankin's detached gaze swept left and then the bullet mysteriously halted mid-flight, suspended before Dankin's unimpressed gaze.
Before anyone could make a sound, Dankin voiced calmly, "Switch,"
In an instant, the bullet and veins positions were reversed, now targeting Syla!
The sudden shift caught her off guard, her eyes widening in shock as she found herself the new focus of her partner's temporal bindings and the impending spatial bullet, now re inches from her face.
Yet, this wasn't Syla's first rodeo.
In almost an instant, her body began to vibrate at an increasing frequency, a soft hum filling the air around her!
As her vibrations intensified, Syla beca a blur, her form shimring as if she was dissolving into the air.
With the crowd holding its breath, Syla achieved perfect resonance with the spaceti frequency!
In the last nanosecond, before the spatial bullet could make contact, she phased out of the perceivable spaceti continuum!
The bullet, robbed of its target, passed harmlessly through the space she had occupied monts before, striking nothing but air.
As Syla reerged into visibility, a murmur of awe rippled through the onlookers.
She had demonstrated a masterful understanding of her innate vibration manipulation while at the sa showing that her instincts weren't for show!
"Not bad."
Commander Bia, observing the maneuver, gave a slight nod in acknowledgnt of her skill.
This head nod alone was enough to secure Syla's spot in the escorting squad, which made the rest of the rcenaries sowhat restless.
In their eyes, they didn't even need to touch Dankin and all they could do was receive Commander Bia's approval after showing off their capabilities.
Without making a move, it would be nearly impossible to show off.
Thus, before the Quantum Divers squad could finish what they had started, tens of other squads joined the battleground with powerful projectiles directed at Dankin!
"Pull back!"
Plix swiftly ordered a retreat when he noticed the rcenaries' feverish look. He understood that being near Dankin at this mont was a death sentence!
Boom! Boom! Whoosh!
As expected, the area around Dankin was showered with all sorts of abilities! So attacks twisted space, making the ground look like a funhouse mirror.
So were ssing with ti, making it nearly impossible to have a balanced ti pace. There were even a few rcenaries of the race that Apollo disguised himself as.
The males were utilizing light abilities while the females used darkness abilities.
Then, there were the attacks that made no sense, with colors and lights flying everywhere and vibrations that made the air buzz like giant bees!
'He is sothing else.'
Felix narrowed his eyes in focus as he stayed at the far back with Apollo, avoiding the heart of the battlefield.
They watched as Dankin dodged and weaved through all of it like he was part of so high-stakes dance competition.
'He can alter reality so naturally, I don't even notice him manipulating quantum energy.' Felix comntated, 'If this is the strength of a re high-ranked guard, what about commander Bia? What about the royal family and their emperor, Quantix Pri?'
'They owned the realm alongside Chaosians for a reason.' Apollo wasn't too surprised, 'So of them have been manipulating vibrations for billions of years without dying. They have already mastered whatever there was to master.'
Although Felix was a unigin, he understood that he wasn't in his ho ground anymore. Right now, Dankin was demonstrating what it ant to be one of the strongest in the realm.
Even when hundreds of rcenaries were giving it all to finish him off, none of them managed to touch his armor.
With the ability to alter reality, he could easily gain control over all the available laws in the realm.
This made it impossible for the rcenaries to land a strike on him when he could just cancel it with a snap of a finger or worse, use it as a counter-attack against one of them.
"Is that all you got?"
Dankin taunted coldly, as he slapped a spatial blade into the direction of the largest gathering of rcenaries, forcing them to evade with horror painted on their faces.
"You're gonna have to do better than that if you desire to accompany us."
'Damn it, we have to change our approach!'
The rcenaries weren't happy with his taunts or their constant failures...So, Plix reached out to the leaders of their respective squads and convinced them to work together.
This changed the whole dynamic of the battlefield. Now, the attacks were coordinated and this helped the rcenaries move freely without worrying about getting hit by friendly fire.
Alas, while this had improved their battles a bit, it still didn't change anything.
Dankin was as invincible as ever.
This kind of invincibility made Felix feel so dread in his heart...He wasn't bothered by Dankir, but by the notion that Uranus would have this kind of power here.
This made him realize that he needed to master quantum energy manipulation swiftly.
While he could utilize his evil energy to corrupt it and gain control of it, he was still struggling to manipulate the vibrational strings within it to turn into liquid, electricity, and other quantum laws.
After all, he still needed to find the right frequencies for those laws to erge from quantum energy. While it wasn't as hard as finding the quantum energy's frequency, it would take a significant amount of ti to learn.
'Do you think it's possible to reach out to primogenitor Bia and ask for her assistance through using familiarity?' Candace tried to help him.
'It's too risky.' Felix shook his head, 'She might be a primogenitor, but she has disappeared before she could et the majority. Only Lord Osiris and Lord Zurvan had so interactions with her.'
In other words, Felix would be nothing more but a stranger to her. In fact, he would be a dangerous stranger to her life here since he was from the matter universe.
As long as they had no idea about her reason for coming down here, it was too risky to make contact.
'What about you, Lord Marduk?' Candace didn't give up.
'I never t her once in my life.' Lord Marduk shattered her hopes.
'I will ask Apollo following the end of the trials.' Felix added after noticing that ti was running thin.
'What's the plan?' Felix turned to Apollo.
He had analyzed enough to make him understand that if they wanted to secure their spots, they had to stand out.
He didn't want to do this since it would force him to demonstrate things that might expose him.
'The hero should never make the first move. Let your gracious sidekick handle it.' Apollo gave him a faint confident smirk, 'I will qualify us both.'
Before Felix might respond, Apollo strolled onto the battlefield with his hands casually tucked into his pockets like he was going to enter a public bathhouse.
Usually, when soone stared at the back of his partner, he might feel a sense of reliability and safety.
But in this instant, all Felix felt was dread.
'Why do I have a feeling this f*cker will make things worse?' He thought inwardly.
