Chapter 508 Alliances And Truces
The power of Lanterk required Universe Energy to allow the metals to move and even take form. However, while his power could control and wield the metals, it was different if he could impart his very thoughts to the metals. Lanterk, who had numerous incarnations, had a special heritage that allowed him to create clones and use this power greatly!
Right after the revelation of Lanterk's secret identity as the Goat with Four Horns and the death of Shakstress, Andronze immediately contacted Lanterk and showed him parts of the science that allowed her to create an even more advanced form of Locust Technology. It was a power that allowed her thoughts to control and provide sentience to these insects. This made Lanterk interested. She had already shown him several peculiar technologies. Now, she was prepared to reveal one of the biggest secrets she hid on Earth to assure Lanterk's assistance in the coming battle.
"Her name is Guinevere Humphrey. She is the daughter of a very prominent figure in the Underworld. Do you know her or her father, Lennox?"
"I have no interest or concerns about whatever happens in the Underworld. So no, I don't."
"I also couldn't care about the Underworld. But I had to infiltrate the underbellies of Earth's illegal criminal world because of her. As you know, there were certain strange energy sources in Egypt. For example, I found a natural Ankh Core forming here. But while it was initially regarded as natural, I realized that Egypt held more than just that. I believe that the many mysterious things I found here are part of something that the Progenitor and those masquerading to be the Lost Primordial have been searching for since the end of World War Three."
"You found a legacy of the Lost Primordial?"
"Yes! And that legacy is a simple skeletal suit. And this Guinevere created a unique reaction to the metal I was experimenting on. I may have found something close to a Phallic suit. But I don't have the foundation. So the Progenitor and those fake Lost Primordial must have found the basic, and I found an advanced form! Remember that all those Phallic forms use the body? But our Nefilus Suit and even the Combat body requires an Exoskeleton!"
"So you found the skeleton, huh?"
"Either that or I found a flawed experiment of the Lost Primordial. I don't honestly understand it. I will not give you the details of this Pseudo-Nefilus suit as it is my heritage. But the girl, I will give it to you if you agree to share information about your studies with her."
"How did she control this pseudo suit you were making?"
"Her life was threatened in Egypt, and her fears caused a fluctuation similar to your power."
"She managed to move metals of this suit?"
"Not just that. She managed to give it a form of thought. For a split second, the skin suit that I was trying to turn into a pseudo-Nefilus suit moved on its own. Not through random magnetic pull or anything of that matter. It moved as if it had life."
"No fluctuations to the metal after that? You couldn't detect Universe Energy?"
"Nothing that I could detect. It moved because of that girl, and that no Universe Energy was wasted!"
"Now that is interesting. If I get that, I can create several weaker clones! And even in my current power, I should be able to kill those Top-Tiers."
"That, I don't doubt. What I'm about to show you is the result of my analysis. But I need assurance that this information that I will show you will not be leaked. I don't know what power or form of transmission you are using. But I fear that if the rest of the Top Tiers can somehow infiltrate or hijack your line, then they will surely attack me even if it means that they would face the Progenitor or the Lost Primordial's ambush."
"You are too paranoid. Maybe it's a good thing, but the form that you see before you is a result of me expending Universe Energy. They cannot hack this line. Worry about your base. What if they can listen?"
"No. I'm made my preparations. In any case, watch this." Andornze showed an experiment of how Guinevere was used to adding thoughts to several Supreme Exoskeletons.
The scene amazed Lanterk.
Andronze watched silently. She did her best to hide the truth of the Lost Primordial's body but revealed Guinevere to Lanterk and downplayed the power that Guinevere showed. But in this lies was a clever trick. Andronze had already worked out how her powers could grant life to something that could have the capability to think. An exoskeleton with an impressive A.I would somehow have a limited thinking process to her thoughts. This was how the Nile Serpent had a portion of her mind. But in reality, Guinevere could hijack even a corpse as long as its brain was preserved! If Lanterk had found out about the Lost Primordial's body and how Guinevere managed to control the body of the Lost Primordial itself, then Lanterk would have moved heaven or hell to acquire Guinevere and the Lost Primordial now.
"Thoughts? You're the expert in this. How is this possible?" Andronze finally asked.
"The fluctuations and power come from a different form of energy. It wasn't Universe Energy. That girl must somehow be related to the real Lost Primordial. It's as if her body is similar to the ones that the Progenitor and the fake Lost Primordials used."
"You mean the Phallium body? You believe that?" Andronze asked.
"Yes. Even when they fought me and outsmarted me under the sea, I noticed all of them holding dildos."
"Dildos?"
"Yes. The Phallic objects. Which makes this little girl's case curious. How can she hold such phallic power without one?" Lanterk was lost in thoughts.
"Aid me, and this is yours. The location of where this woman is being held is out of reach, even with my communication. So I have to use Universe Energy to link with it! This way, even if the battle turns to my disadvantage, they can never find or have that tech."
"You're quite paranoid. But I guess this is necessary. Relax. Even if all the Top Tiers ganged up, they won't defeat me if I would use up my Universe Energy. My true forms are coming here already. They won't attack you yet. But good news, Andronze, this solidified our alliance! I cannot afford to lose you now and can declare a permanent alliance between the two of us!" Lanterk laughed, and the two continued to discuss the powerful science of Guinevere.
But at that moment, on a Sky Satellite near the regions of Egypt, a certain meeting was about to start.
Just outside Egypt's borders, numerous ships, aircraft, and even launched Sky Satellites from different countries were waiting for any escalating commotion in Egypt.
The meeting took place in a massive aircraft that flew around the perimeter of Egypt. Many were conducting trades and negotiations and conclusions on dealing with what was now known as 'Judgment Day' where the machines rose and killed their makers.
Hidden in this commotion was the meeting of Presiders.
Straviaa and Enderks hosted the meeting and waited in their craft for the other Presiders to appear.
The designated time was approaching, and the two were getting nervous.
"Who do you think will show up?" Straviaa asked.
"I don't know. But you know how much I lost in the battle below that ocean. So if a fight breaks up, I'd have to rely on you."
"For the millionth time, don't worry! Let's just see what truce or ceasefires we can set to get that body hidden under Egypt!" Straviaa frowned.
Suddenly, a powerful light flashed, and a Throne appeared.
"Zeraphine. You're quite early."
"Let's get this on. I want to destroy Egypt!"
"So keen to fight. But are you sure? We're not sure which Presider will attack, and we don't know if the Progenitor and the Lost Primordial will be here.
"I represent the Lost Primordial and the Progenitor." A voice spoke, and Seeker suddenly appeared.
"Let's get this party started. My father said that Egypt and Greece are not ready for a battle now. So should me launch a surprise attack at Egypt, she will be at a loss." Seeker explained.
"Just you? Your father won't be in attendance?"
"If my dad did, you'd have more research material, won't you? He knew you would all try to study his appearance, so he won't do that again. I will be left to act freely and represent him."
"Represent? You?" Straviaa mocked.
"Your only qualifications for even being able to stand before us is because you are the toy of this little Princess. But, I do want to ask, Zeraphine. How is he in bed? How do humans do it? Or have you lowered yourself to mate like animals?"
WARP!
Seeker's figure disappeared and appeared right above Straviaa.
"What?!" Straviaa couldn't keep up, nor did she anticipate the movement.
"How about I put a dent on your throne?!" Seeker roared as he punched out.
BOOM!
