Chapter 408 - True Shrink
Compounding Force Science was one of the most torturous and unethical sciences that the Lost Primordial made. It was a science that relied on absorbing another object\'s energies and compressing the two existing forces into one.
Through the years, the Caesar family had lived in a secret world where death was common existence. All of its family members were ordered to live to and enjoy life up to their thirtieth birthday. They were given the freedom to debauch themselves if they wanted to. But of course, none of those born of this accursed bloodline wasted their life to do whatever they wanted to do. They were all living at the edge every day. They trained and fought hard as they knew they would soon fight, kill, and devour each other.
Every time one of the families successfully ate each other, the Ceasar\'s organization would change. Those who were not from the pure line of Ceasars supported those who were. And they would either be killed by the opposing force that won or seek refuge towards the rest.
Each line of the Ceasar had its own sets of technology, and it never merged as the Ceasar\'s have always been divided into two parts over the past decade. But now, Octarion Ceasar controlled the family, and all the techs were his.
The Compounding Science allowed him to release an amplified amount of force. His strength wasn\'t simple addition. The strength and power that he could release were multiplied.
The punch that had the power of a mighty bomb damaged the ship of Shakstress once more.
Seeker watched at the strength that was released.
"Wow. That guy has a body similar to ours, Lynd. I would even say his brute strength is even stronger than my Surmounting Strength." Seeker smiled.
"I can\'t imitate that. It feels like he\'s... too huge for my Path to tread on."
"He has over two hundred souls in him. That\'s the secret. His power stores energy in another dimension."
"I see. So the Tyrant Empress sent him not only to help but to pass along this science to us. How thoughtful of her."
"Hrm? Tell Meryl to move back. Somethings happening. The dimensions are quivering! This is amazing!" Seeker exclaimed.
"What\'s happening?" Lynd asked.
It was then that the entire ship of Shakstress vanished.
Seeker and Lynd immediately moved out. The two of them immediately sensed the changes in their Realm.
Seeker activated several Balls of Thunder and Lynd harnessed the sound.
Two sound forces suddenly blocked the area where Meryl was.
BOOM!
BOOM!
The two sound shields quivered at it was bombarded with attacks.
"It\'s passing through the molecules of Sound! Quick! Switch to Desolation! Meryl, keep shooting out your power on the direction I tell you to! And keep retreating!" Seeker ordered.
Meryl immediately complied and kept attacking.
More explosions were occurring at the sky.
"Nogard! Find that ship!"
"On it."
Nogard had immediately abandoned the rocket, and a small pod that could fit a single human fell out of the sky. Nogard continued to control the weapons of Mass destruction.
The rocket flew aimlessly into the sky, but Nogard was still navigating it. A powerful force field appeared as it used various techs of the WGP.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
More and more attacks struck the force field.
"I can still sense you. You might have shrunk that ship, but your soul is quite easy to find!"Nogard laughed.
BOOM!
A large explosion that was perfectly round appeared in the sky.
The power of Origin energy that the WPG created compressed the force of the massive explosion into a certain spot.
Seeker and the team knew this wasn\'t enough and used this time to flee.
"What happened? A few seconds sooner, and I would have died!" Hermes called out to Seeker as the wind managed to connect them.
Several explosions had been erupting near Hermes, but the explosion gave Hermes some breathing room.
The Water Dragons and even the Moon were all being bombarded by attacks that they couldn\'t see.
"She shrunk her entire ship! That\'s what happened! Even her bullets and attacks have shrunk to the point that we can\'t see it! You better get out of there, Hermes! One Overcomer is not enough to block those attacks!"
"What do you think I\'m doing? I plan to hide in that Pyramid! My Winds are constantly attacking! And that stupid Lowengren made a crazy lie which I can\'t contact Andronze immediately!"
And then Hermes heard it once more.
"Pelvic Thrust! It\'s time for tea! The cactus is rubbing me strangely." Andornze declared again.
"It looks like Shakstress got serious. My allies have arrived, and she finally released her ace techs. Look at that." Hermes did his best to sound very calm, but in truth, he was close to death as he retreated.
"What happened? Where did she go?" Andronze asked again.
Hermes was also asking the same thing to Seeker.
"She shrunk her ship. Earlier, she was shrinking the space of where her ship was. That\'s why her attacks suddenly enlarge when it reaches a certain point past the space that was shrunk, and her weapons would suddenly enlarge. That was also probably how she shrunk it at first. That was also how it was easy for all of you to sense her location. While the ship was very small, But now, she didn\'t shrink the space where she was but the ship itself. And it looks like while her ship has shrunk, the power, mass, force, and everything else remained the same!"
"So that\'s how her attacks are chasing and hitting my wind armor. Some of her attacks are smaller than the wind molecules!" Hermes realized it.
"Boss! What do we do?" Austin asked. He and Alvin had been working together to blow and freeze the incoming attacks.
"The weight of her attacks remains the same. My Blowing Wind can\'t blow them back!" Alvin complained.
"Same goes for my Chilling Wind. Even though I can sense very small objects slipping through, they aren\'t getting frozen. It\'s like the temperature, and freezing points of these objects haven\'t changed at all!"
"Don\'t think according to whatever science you know. This is a battle going beyond the dimensions we know. Hermes, have those Presider cover for us! We need to wait for Arthur, Richie, and even Octarion to sabotage the ship from the inside! But with this, we might die and run out of energy with all this stuff! We can\'t reveal our powers just yet!"
Even before Seeker gave the commands, Hermes has been doing just that.
"You want me to charge in?!" Andronze exclaimed.
"Of course not! Like you could kill her. I want you to shield me. She\'s stronger than I thought. I need time to perform another ritual. Take us in your ship for extra defense. The attacks of this Shakstress are already getting smaller and smaller. It\'s too annoying as I would need to use more of my power to block them. And get that Pridgeon to help. Tell him that that other guy who punched out was sent by \'her\'." Hermes instructed as he heard Seeker suggested leaking that information.
"I\'ll try...."
"Good. I\'ll disconnect now. She could be listening for all we know."
As Hermes\'s voice disappeared, Andronze sped forward to meet the fleeing figures of Hermes.
The Flood Dragons raced forward to position itself in front of Hermes.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The Flood Dragons began to explode one by one as it constantly made wide attacks.
Soon, the power of the Sun Devourers appeared once more as explosions began to occur.
Hermes and Andronze could not fly towards each other, and Andronze communicated with Pridgeon.
"Pridgeon! That large Dawn Soldier that punched Shakstress\'s ship is from her! The man who had the power of the wind communicated with me! He is allied to the WGP that arrived! The one with the strange power similar to the Sun Devourer! You must help them! Shield them from the attack! They are planning something to destroy Shakstress!" Andronze sent the message.
Pridgeon cursed as he heard this. When Shakstress shrunk the ship, Pridgeon believed that while he could not kill Shakstress, she wouldn\'t be able to kill him as well. The ability that shrunk her entire ship used a lot of Universe Energy, and Pridgeon would have to use up the ones that Crostfree hoarded. But seeing that this route wasn\'t an option, Pridgeon was about to flee and abandon the battlefield. But then, Andronze told him that the soldier that had armor similar to Dawn Soldiers came from \'her.\'
At those words, memories of the wretched perfection and beauty of that woman surfaced.
Pridgeon hesitated and glanced at the three Supreme Exoskeletons that emerged out of the WGP\'s weapon of mass destruction.
"She fooled me! She must have known who or what I was when I met her months ago!" Pridgeon concluded.
"She must be Presider level..." The punch of that soldier that created so much force that it tore right through the force field and even damaged the ship meant that the woman who pretended to be demons and wanted him to eliminate the Jews was just some Earthling who stumbled on the legacy of the Lost Primordial. But now, Pridgeon realized there was so much mystery behind it.
"Move forward! Meet the attacks and focus on defense! Try to find that shrunken ship!" Pridgeon ordered.
He sat on his throne and harnessed the energy of it.
"Time to reflect the dimensions! If you want to fight, Shakstress, I\'ll give you one!" Pridgeon cursed.
The moon began to tremble, and it slowly lost its color. Inside the moon, space began to collapse in itself as if a black hole appeared. Inside the black hole was a slightly smaller moon that looked exactly the same. It had a black hole in its center, and yet another moon was in the black hole..
This appearance that looked like staring into the reflections of two mirrors facing each other appeared.
Seeker saw it, and his mind quivered. The sight he saw when the three dimensions collapsed and led to the fourth was very familiar. He had forgotten it even though he was Unlocked. This was because his limited three-dimensional form had no way to recall the sight. But now he did.
"Lynd! Get me out of here!" Seeker clutched his head as the memories of what he saw during his rebirth appeared.
