1832 The Strategy To Slay The King of Darkness!
"First of all, is it just , or does it seem like the King of Darkness is searching for sothing?" Empress Zara, the new leader of the Nanites Swarm, noted with her millions of eyes pointed at Apollo.
Unlike the others, she analyzed every single detail about him to the last twitch. This made her notice that instead of seeking pure destruction and death as usual in his every conquest, he ignored their armies and kept devouring one environnt after another.
"You kinda have a point." Quantix Pri and the rest noticed this peculiarity too after focusing on Apollo's destination.
"I think he is just feeding his army." Lumina Radiarch disclosed, "He must be fueling his army before the conquest."
"No." Empress Zara rejected, her voice as emotionless as Queen Ai, "I can read his expression, he appears irritated, his eyes keep drifting from one place to another."
"He is searching for sothing, for soone, and he thinks it's hiding in the ruins." She stressed.
"What can it be then?" Neutrino Flux raised an eyebrow, "Wait, don't tell he is looking for the stone of reality too?!"
The mont this notion was brought up, everyone's hearts sunk to the bottom of their stomachs in dread.
Just the thought of Apollo possessing the stone of reality was enough to cause them an existential crisis.
"Sh*t, even if he isn't searching for it, at this incredible pace, he is bound to find it after devouring the entire ruins and the realities nearby!"
"Damn it, I guess retreating was never an option."
"We need a strategy, right away."
Everyone went silent and began to brainstorm new strategic ideas to take down Apollo and his army.
With fifty nations involved and each one had its own special powers, strengths, and weaknesses, it was much more complicated.
But, ti wasn't in their favor, knowing that they needed to co up with sothing good, and quick.
After a quarter of an hour, Empress Zara declared calmly, "We need a multi-pronged approach. First, we establish a periter using the Quarklings' quantum barriers to disrupt Apollo's army's connection to the rift. This will weaken his forces imnsely."
Everyone knew that Apollo kept his dark creation army connected to the rift as much as he could for the sake of dark energy. He let go of it only when he needed to go into far distances.
The mont he did this, it made him fight against ti before his army died out of starvation...When that occurred, he returned to the void and started creating a new army to repeat the cycle when he had enough.
"While the barriers hold them at bay, we can use the Chronowalkers' capabilities to manipulate ti within these zones. Slowing down the movent of his troops will give us the tactical advantage we need to strike effectively and cut off the link."
Xylos involved himself in the planning with a cold tone, "If we managed to cut off his supply of dark energy, we could use the combined spatial powers of Plankters to lock him down and his severed army in a dinsional pocket."
"We will be already awaiting him there." Lumina Radiarch showed an icy smile, "Without the rift and the infinite supply of dark creatures, he can't stand a chance against all of us."
"Sounds like a plan."
With the main fra of the plan decided on, everyone started chiming with ideas to solidify it and make it foolproof. In addition, to establish escape routes for everyone in case sh*t hit the fan.
After an hour or less, the eting drew to a close and Quantix Pri stood up to address the gathering one last ti.
"This will be a campaign the likes of which we have never seen. But together, we hold the power of fifty worlds. Let's use it not just to defend our hos but to put an end to this threat, once and for all."
"Once and for all."
The leaders chanted with cold expressions, hatred painted on their eyes as they gazed at the holographic image of Apollo.
anwhile, in Quantix Pri's mind, questions arose about Apollo's real target of his search.
'Can it be what those three bastards are looking?' He narrowed his eyes, 'Can it be what Commander Bia is hiding? With this much interest in it, what is it?'
Suddenly, Quantix Pri's eyes widened.
'Don't tell , it's the stone of reality?! Is it possible that Bia has found it and kept it to herself sohow?'
'Shadow, keep your eyes close to those foreigners and report to if they seem to have found anything.' Quantix Pri ordered telepathically.
'Your wish is my command.' Shadow replied monotonously.
While Quantix Pri hadn't co to the exact answer, he was getting closer and closer...
***
A couple of hours later...
Apollo could be seen standing above his cloud of dark creatures, his eyes, deep wells of darkness, scanning the aftermath of his destruction for any signs of Felix.
"Show yourself, Paragon," Apollo murmured, his voice a blend of frustration and anticipation. "Where are you hiding yourself."
Apollo had no clue what happened to Felix, forcing him to start his search in the ruins, the last place, where he was last seen alive.
He could also pick up on unigins' auras if they weren't masked with spiritual pressure. Thus, he understood that if Felix was here as a re core, his aura would have been picked up by him.
'Hmmm?'
Suddenly, Apollo's focus was broken by his dark creatures getting disturbed at the far back. He rged his senses with them and traveled along the hive until he arrivedheat the end, near the rift.
The mont his eyes linked with one of the dark creatures, he opened them to the sight of thousands of quantum barriers and Chaotic Barriers disrupting the cohesion of the dark creatures, rendering them disoriented and vulnerable!
Above, Gleamkins, Luminoans, Vibronoxians, and millions more of different races ard to the teeth as they used their powers and weapons to sear through the ranks of dark entities!
On the ground, Chronowalkers manipulated ti around key choke points, slowing the reinforcents of dark creatures to a crawl!
Apollo watched as his forces, usually an unstoppable tide of destruction, were being picked apart from many sides!
'They are trying to sever the swarm from the dark energy.' A cold fury sank over Apollo as he determined the depth of the strategy against him.
"Carry on! Don't stop attacking!"
"Cut them apart! We are so close!"
"For the Realm!"
anwhile, the quantum nations' leaders were encouraging their troops as they offered their own assistance, knowing that ti wasn't their ally.
They managed to get the jump on Apollo only because of the unique powers of so races in their alliance, helping them perfect their ambush.
But after launching their attack, they knew that Apollo would be on to them imdiately.
As expected, Apollo traveled through the swarm as darkness particles and then appeared right before their faces and under their world-ending barrage.
With a cold gaze, he raised his hand to the sky and uttered, "You little worms are pushing your luck."
The instant the sentence echoed in everyone's minds, they were stunned to see the dark creatures creating barriers of dark energy and fighting back with a similar ferocity.
Yet, the most shocking part had yet to co.
The dark creatures seemingly began to gather up and rge akin to clay, forcing a massive abomination with twenty large eyes, the head of a goat, and the body of a lizard.
When it opened its crimson eyes, it gazed at the aggressors for a re second before launching itself at them!
The worst part? This was rely the first of hundreds of other gigantic dark abominations!
"You want to play so soon, let's play." Apollo uttered coldly.
