Chapter 1832 The Strategy To Slay The King of Darkness!

1832 The Strategy To Slay The King of Darkness!

"First of all, is it just me, or does it seem like the King of Darkness is searching for something?" 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 environment after another.

"You kinda have a point." Quantix Prime 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 something, for someone, 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 me he is looking for the stone of reality too?!"

The moment 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, time wasn't in their favor, knowing that they needed to come up with something good, and quick.

After a quarter of an hour, Empress Zara declared calmly, "We need a multi-pronged approach. First, we establish a perimeter using the Quarklings' quantum barriers to disrupt Apollo's army's connection to the rift. This will weaken his forces immensely."

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 moment he did this, it made him fight against time 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 time within these zones. Slowing down the movement 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 dimensional 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 frame 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 meeting drew to a close and Quantix Prime stood up to address the gathering one last time.

"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 homes 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.

Meanwhile, in Quantix Prime'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 Prime's eyes widened.

'Don't tell me, it's the stone of reality?! Is it possible that Bia has found it and kept it to herself somehow?'

'Shadow, keep your eyes close to those foreigners and report to me if they seem to have found anything.' Quantix Prime ordered telepathically.

'Your wish is my command.' Shadow replied monotonously.

While Quantix Prime hadn't come 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 mere 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 merged his senses with them and traveled along the hive until he arrivedheat the end, near the rift.

The moment 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 armed to the teeth as they used their powers and weapons to sear through the ranks of dark entities!

On the ground, Chronowalkers manipulated time around key choke points, slowing the reinforcements 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!"

Meanwhile, the quantum nations' leaders were encouraging their troops as they offered their own assistance, knowing that time wasn't their ally.

They managed to get the jump on Apollo only because of the unique powers of some races in their alliance, helping them perfect their ambush.

But after launching their attack, they knew that Apollo would be on to them immediately.

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." This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

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 come.

The dark creatures seemingly began to gather up and merge 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 mere second before launching itself at them!

The worst part? This was merely the first of hundreds of other gigantic dark abominations!

"You want to play so soon, let's play." Apollo uttered coldly.
