Everyone was focused on escaping.

The destruction and the disconnection that stopped the Universe Energy from moving and altering the giant space was the perfect escape route for the Unlocked army.

Everyone was moving as fast as they could.

In the first jump, Lynd was pulled back by Rai when Rai appeared in the very room. But the two separated and went their own way to pick up the rest of the team.

Cliff was able to find his team and fought with them with the remaining forces scattered in the ship's wreckage.

Alean was, however, not stopping.

The Unlocked saw it and frowned. The ship was too far, and teleporting right inside this ship which was moving at such a speed, would be dangerous.

The submarine kept rushing deeper and ignored all of the teams.

The teams had no choice but to follow.

The parts of the ship that managed to retain functionality were attacking Alean. But without the magnetic power of Lanterk to manipulate the attacks, Alean was easily able to fight back.

Many other Unlocked soldiers emerged, and even Armors began to shoot. Their mission was to move towards the location where Seeker was.

When Lynd made the quick shift with Jake and launched an attack on the main body, it gave Seeker, Kristine, and Alphie the time they needed to defeat the enemy.

Seeker charged in.

"That clone and those Thrones are mines!" Seeker shouted as he made a kick.

Seeker moved with such vast strength and power that all he did was a punch and a sweeping kick.

The punch instantly destroyed the clone of Lanterk. The force that Seeker released in that punch was already at the strength of nuclear bombs. His kicks were just as powerful. When he created the body that Lanterk identified as the Nefilus Combat Body, he felt the surge of power that allowed him to have the physical power to overcome the defensive technologies and complex sciences that Lanterk was releasing time.

The main body saw the attack but cursed.

"Too late... I can't control my clone. Damn them! I will lose them too?!" Lanterk's rage was building.

Lanterk could have made counter-attacks to defend or stop Seeker, his main body got attacked, and the AI of Lennox, which distorted his Throne, created conflicts in releasing the Universe energy.

Seeker punched out and aimed for the face of Lanterk's clone. Kristine wielded the sound and empowered Seeker's fist. Alphie used her lightning to wrap around it to create a sword.

As for Seeker, his focus was maintaining the great power that harnessed numerous paths in his fist.

Seeker had taken the data from the experiments made on Dara and used it as a basis to focus the paths on one point.

The Paths that Seeker used were the Desolation of Meng, the cells of Meryl, the blood of Akasha, the virus of Amir, the compression science of the Dalisay, the firmness of Octarion, and the realm of Lioncourt to contain it all.

In that punch was a power that had the most potent physical force ever created among the Unlocked armies.

BANG!

The punch contained a quaking force that all the ocean trembled at this punch. Moreover, space itself was shaking at the tremendous power that threatened to destroy numerous dimensions.

But the punch only destroyed the head of Lanterk and no more. It didn't create massive explosions and ripples but only appeared as a simple punch.

The two pilots of the Thrones saw Lanterk's clone decimated in a simple punch. And before they could move, Seeker was already next to one of the pilots.

Seeker moved with a strange speed that disrupted science itself. He was no longer moving in the three dimensions. From Seeker's perspective, he didn't even move at all. He just shifted and aligned his legs to make a kick, and he was already there.

The kick was released, and it contained the same power.

BANG! BANG!

The single kick broke through the domes of the two Thrones and killed the pilots instantly as their entire upper body was smashed.

The punch and kicks appeared to have happened within the same second. Kristine and Alphie were even shocked at it. And right after the three attacks happened, it was only then that the physics of the universe acted and created massive shock waves and explosions.

A force from the punch continued out and broke through the walls. The kick also created a cut. And the force was so strong, even when the room had holes that led to the ocean, the waters didn't rush in was it was also being punched and kicked back.

A second later, the waters were crushed.

"Seeker!" Kristine and Alphie shouted as they saw that Seeker instantly lost power, and his body began to decay.

Kristine and Alphie had to quickly inject healing elixirs that the Unlocked made, which would have allowed Seeker to regrow an arm instantly. Yet even two vials could not heal Seeker as his body began to eat up a massive amount of energy.

"It's not enough!" Alphie was shocked. Seeker's condition was dropping so rapidly that he would die within seconds.

Kristine pressed her lips against Seeker and used bliss to calm Seeker's body.

Seeker was awakened at the kiss, and his body's disintegration halted as his metabolism calmed down.

Seeing his state stabilize, the two injected yet another vial.

"What were you thinking?!" Kristine shouted.

"... I thought that I could handle it! That was dangerous!"

Suddenly, an explosion occurred behind them as a ship shot through the metal. Alean had led the ship directly to this location.

Lynd appeared inside the ship as he completed his last teleportation. Alean's ship had finally stopped, and he could make the jump. He watched as Alean frantically sent out medicines through the medics that immediately treated Lynd.

"That idiot! My zone told me he would have died!" Alean cursed.

Lynd sighed but kept his emotions locked in his heart.

"He's always an idiot."

Cliff and the rest appeared, as did Meryl's group.

"Retreat!" Alean ordered.

"Buy me several seconds. I need to recover and charge for teleporting this entire ship out of here." Rai moved towards the large pod which could amplify his powers.

"Buy you time? Against that?" Cliff sighed as he watched outside.

The broken parts of the ship were gathering, and they were quickly becoming a massive form of a man.

"You will all die here!" Lanterk shouted as his gigantic fist punched down on them.

But at that moment, Lynd appeared and harnessed many Paths.

"You! I'll kill you first!" Lanterk screamed as the massive fist contained powerful Universe energy making it look like the arm was the infinite universe itself.

Lynd frowned. And knew that this was the perfect time to let out his jealous rage.

"Time for you to take over..." Lynd spoke to himself as the enraged alter ego took over.

"What an idiot! You still didn't understand the point of this mission!" Lynd laughed. His realm began to spread out. And it called the broken metals that were scattered nearby.

The numerous broken and abandoned parts of the ship began to tremble, and they violently moved closer and crashed on each other.

But the power of Lynd's Realm gathered around them. At that moment, it was the other Lynd controlling the body. The angry Lynd wanted to destroy everything as he saw how Alean was rushing to save Seeker immediately.

The rage brought focus, and Zone allowed Lynd to miraculously wield the metals.

Lanterk was horrified at what he saw. He saw Lynd use his powers!

The destroyed metals formed into a palm that blocked the fist.

BOOM!

The palm easily lost, but it slowed the fist just enough for Alean to escape the arm falling on them and when the palm.

The rage of Lynd was spent as he blocked the fist with his power.

"I'm... losing control!" Lynd shouted.

The entire ship of Alean was shooting all that it could as the palm that blocked the attack scattered and became wreckage once more.

Everyone that could shoot attacks at the approaching fist shot out, and numerous bombs of desolation, sound, and lightning were released.

But the massive fist continued on, and just as it was about to land a hit, the ship vanished.

Lanterk saw the ship make a teleportation jump, and he undid the power of his punch.

The ship was slowly gathering back and was altering itself as it lost a large piece. The wrecked metals were also gathering.

"How...? How could it copy my tech? Was this the answer? There was no Devourer in this place? But the Lost Primordial or the Progenitor could copy? How did he copy it?!" Lanterk couldn't understand and was lost in thoughts.

BEEP!

Suddenly, numerous notifications caught his attention.

"Myrth. Pridgeon. Andronze. Enderks. Even that Garenjazz? You all want to attack me now?!"

As the seas grew restless from the tantrum that Lanterk made, a certain ship had completed its teleportation jump.

The teleportation allowed Alean's ship to teleport from the deep sea into a Many Mansion nearly a hundred kilometers from where the battle took place.

Everyone in the submarine that Alean piloted was not moving. Those who were standing were now lying down.

"We're alive?" Meryl asked.

"... I think I reached Surmounting Inhuman..." Zidane realized as his life review ended. He could still feel the force of the massive fist moving closer and reflected in his life. He even saw the life reviews of Hank and Counter.

He turned to the side and saw Hank and Counter had the same expression he had.

"Did... I just see your life flash before my eyes?" Hank asked.

"I... think so... Has this ever happened before?"

"Report it to Charles after this..." Cliff sighed as he opened the door.

As he opened the main door, a men walked in.

"Did you...?" Pheonix Everhiss entered the submarine and immediately asked. But as he saw the fainted and dazed expression of everyone, he stopped.

"We succeed," Lynd answered.

"You did?! Thank goodness! I thought you failed. You lot don't seem happy."

"Happy?! We thought we were going to die back there! But anyway, we succeeded. The AI Lennox managed to download a blueprint and see the numerous techs that made up the ship. I managed to copy the base form of mental control, and later on, copied the powers that I could comprehend from Lanterk's true body, and Seeker managed to get a Throne and the bodies clone..." Lynd reported.

"Great! That means we can build it?" Pheonix asked excitedly.

"Yes. We can start making preparations. All the massive structures that all the Unlocked are making can be pieced together with this tech to create an Orbital." Seeker finally found the strength to stand up.

"Good! I just received word that the Presiders are moving."

"So the Continental Wars are starting, huh?" Cliff sighed as he heard it. He knew the chaos of tomorrow would be ten times worse than what it was today.
