Chapter 1840 The Clash For The Coc.o.o.n. II
1840 The Clash For The Coc.o.o.n. II
He knew that if their divinities expired, he would still be able to take down them on his own due to their lack of cores on them.
So, he wasn't that hopeless...However, he also understood that they were capable of abusing their laws if they were desperate enough...Three unigins abusing their laws wasn't to be taken lightly.
If he were to abuse his laws right now, he might be able to capture the coc.o.o.n and swiftly withdraw back to the void.
With his army beside him, even if he was chained up by the universe, he could serve his punishment in the blink of an eye due to the time difference between the void and the quantum realm being to his advantage.
That's how he got rid of the chains when the playful Apollo abused his laws in the Silent Library.
'd.a.m.n it, if I abused my laws and failed to secure the coc.o.o.n, I will be out until the rift opens up again. By then, it will be already too la...'
Before Apollo could think too much about it, his thoughts were suddenly interrupted by a freakish sight.
The Quantaar, which had been frozen ever since the coc.o.o.n appeared, had abruptly phased into existence right in front of them!
Although its size was so ma.s.sive, it touched the sky, it still teleported before them in a smooth fas.h.i.+on like it was always there.
Athena, Aeolus, and Artemis were forced to a halt, startled by its emergence as well.
When they lifted their heads and gazed into its singular eye, they felt dread creeping up their spine, like they had awakened a slumbering beast.
Even when Apollo was attacking the Vibronoxians, its eye remained emotionless like it was doing a mere job.
But now? Its eye showed so much emotion that it made everyone question its relation to the coc.o.o.n.
'Old friend...'
Before Quantix Prime or anyone could react, the Quantaar pointed its dreadful eye at them...More specifically, the coc.o.o.n that was protected by Athena's toughest crystal and Artemis' hardest wood, in addition to a layer of radiant divinity.
Then, it channeled its entire power into trying to phase the coc.o.o.n out of their hands!
Crack! Shatter!!
The tough crystal and wood s.h.i.+elds shattered into fragments in an instant, stunning both Athena and Artemis alike, making them understand that if such an attack landed on them without divinities, they would be sent back inside their cores!
However, when it reached the divine barrier, the coc.o.o.n started vibrating immensely, resisting the forceful teleportation.
'Impossible...How powerful can it be?!'
Artemis recoiled in disbelief as she felt her radiant barrier that was linked to the coc.o.o.n getting consumed at a horrifying rate.
Before she could even break out of her shock and reinforce the divine barrier, she heard a crack that made her heart skip a beat.
Then...Whoos.h.!.+
The coc.o.o.n instantly disappeared right under her stupefied eyes and reappeared inside the Quantaar's body...It floated in the center, right behind its ma.s.sive eye.
"..."
"..."
"..."
Whether it was the unigins or the natives, everyone was left staring at the Quantaar with a stunned expression.
While the unigins were shocked by its terrifying power to brute force a divine barrier, the natives reacted to its activeness to go so far for the coc.o.o.n.
"Good job Quantix! We have secured it!"
Timeon praised with a thrilled look, thinking that Quantaar had acted up because of Quantix Prime's request.
"Ye...Yes." Quantix Prime broke out of his absentmindedness, having no idea how to respond.
He had indeed reached out to Quantaar for a.s.sistance, but Quantix Prime had a deep feeling that it didn't act up because of him.
The Quantaar was a guardian, a G.o.d, and a protector of the Vibronoxians nation ever since their birth in the quantum realm.
While he was the founder of the Vibronoxian Empire, he wasn't the first Vibronoxian born. He heard many stories from his ancestors about the Quantaar and he understood that it was the most pa.s.sive ent.i.ty in the realm.
This was actually the first time he had seen it move with such vigor and emotions, which made him doubt its motives.
"Oh no, I knew it was too much for it!"
Suddenly, Quantix Prime dropped such thoughts after noticing the Quantaar's eyelids started to edge slowly in...It had gotten exhausted at last!
"Now it makes sense." Aeolus narrowed his eyes coldly, "You had us scared for a second."
Witnessing all the destruction the Quantaar had committed without dropping a sweat, made them understand that its energy reserve was outlandish.
Yet, to get exhausted after using a single ability, implied that it used almost everything to break apart the divine barrier.
It made sense, after all, divine barriers were nearly impossible to be destroyed unless they were overpowered by immense energy.
That's why only celestial-based attacks were capable of damaging them, just like what Felix did to Hephaestus.
It was still impressive for the Quantaar as it meant its a.s.sault touched the boundary of celestial attacks.
Alas...
'It's weak now, let's kill it and pull out the coc.o.o.n,' Aeolus uttered coldly.
'No, let's keep our distance and let Apollo do the dirty work.'
Athena glanced at Apollo, who was awaiting his army's arrival with a murderous look on his face.
'Let's contain it at least with a radiant field.' Artemis suggested.
They agreed to her proposal at once, knowing that there might be a possibility of the Quantaar taking off from the battlefield entirely.
So, they retreated to a decent safe distance and combined their radiant divinities to form a singular field around it.
Apollo watched the field's creation and did nothing, merely staying outside of it as he ordered his army to rush at the behemoth.
Both parties seemed to come to an unspoken truce, deciding to rip out the coc.o.o.n from the Quantaar before they could carry on their battle.
"Eat it whole," Apollo ordered coldly.
Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+...
The infinite sea of dark creatures rushed inside the divine field and started to a.s.sault the Quantaar's skin-tight vibrational barrier.
It was a permanent barrier it had on before the divine field was created, which meant it couldn't cancel it.
As the dark creatures began to engulf Quantaar from top to bottom, Quantix Prime and the natives watched with distressed expressions, witnessing its inability to defend itself properly.
Exhaustion was painted all over its face as it kept gazing at the sea of dark creatures chipping at its vibrational barrier slowly, but surely.
'Old friend!! Please! Throw away the coc.o.o.n! Let them destroy themselves for it! It's okay!' Quantix Prime shouted telepathically, fearing an ending he didn't dare to imagine.
Quantaar merely glanced in his direction for a moment before refocusing back on his enemies. It seemed so weak, so helpless, yet, it had not a single believed of letting go of the coc.o.o.n.
This upset Quantix Prime to no end, making him beg and beseech the Quantaar, but to no avail...The Quantaar seemed adamant about protecting the coc.o.o.n even at the expense of its life.
Unbeknownst to Quantix Prime and even the unigins, the Quantaar wasn't weak just because it exhausted its energy, it was for a much more serious reason...
Millions of invisible misty strings were seen pulling from the interior of the Quantaar into the coc.o.o.n.
Those strings were piercing through the coc.o.o.n and going straight to the stone of reality, undetectable by even the tenants since they didn't touch Asna's core.
The stone of reality kept feeding on those misty strings like it was a delicious meal, glowing softly.
The result? Felix's soul barrier recovery, which was already fast, started to pick up even more pace.
This startled Elder Kraken, who was responsible for keeping an eye on it.
'Hmmm? What's going on? How can it accelerate again on its own??' He knitted his eyebrows in confusion.
