Supremacy Games

1836 Old Friend, We Might Need Your Help.
On the other side, Athena, Aeolus, and Artemis had already received the news of Apollo winning the war and the Chaosians'
betrayal by Artemis' sources.
'How useless, they didn't buy us even a day's worth of time.' Aeolus cursed.
'Complaining won't help us with anything.' Athena narrowed her eyes, 'I am certain he will be arriving at the empire as soon as
possible. We have to figure out how to deal with him.'
'I am starting to think that the paragon hasn't been hidden in the empire's grounds.' Aeolus remarked, 'How about we leave him
to waste his time and resources searching for him? Even if he finds him, we will try to snatch him back.'
'That works too.' Artemis agreed.
They knew that Apollo's army had limited longevity due to its need for a constant supply of dark energy. The Vibronoxiuan
Empire was extremely far from the ruins and it would take him months to arrive.
This would sever the connection he had to the rift, leaving him to work in a limited capacity.
While their thought process was in the right place, unbeknownst to them, Apollo hadn't accepted the Chaosians to his side for no
reason.
Right this moment, he was already bossing them around to manifest a chain of portals connecting the rift to the Vibronoxian
capital!
It was going to take a lot of work since it was extremely difficult to open up a portal without already visiting the destination, but
Apollo wasn't in a rush.
He had not yet deployed his entire army from the void, and he planned to make his move as soon as he could achieve it.
...
Just like that, a month give or take passed.
"This should be enough." Apollo narrowed his eyes coldly as he gazed at his infinite army of dark creatures, covering more than
billions of kilometers!

They resembled a sea of darkness, swallowing landscapes, realities, and ruins alike, leaving behind a void where nothing else
could exist.
Believe it or not, their current position used to be the tower's ruins. But now, not a single hint was left behind that suggested its
existence.
'How can he have created so much of them...' Xylos and his people felt chills course down their spine at this horrifying sight.
They seemed more thankful than ever to join his side.
"Are the portals ready?" Apollo inquired.
"Yes!"
"Depart."
Apollo led the army toward a massive chaotic portal, consuming everything in its path as it moved.
Leading this apocalyptic march, Apollo directed the legion towards the heart of the Vibronoxian Empire.
His plan was quite ruthless, a direct and overwhelming assault that would leave the Vibronoxians with no option but to retreat or
annihilate.
Using what he had absorbed from them, he could further bolster his army and facilitate the search for Felix.
As the army continued spilling form from one portal to another, Quantix Prime and his allies didn't sit by and wait for them to get
run over.
One month was more than enough for them to return to their empire and scout Apollo's actions.
When they realized that he was indeed targeting them first, Quantix Prime declared a state of emergency and evacuated the
entire capital city, leaving only abled fighters.
Right now, Quantix Prime was seen floating above the highest point of Quantaar city, gazing into the far distance, where he
could already see a tiny pitch-black dot.
He stared at it for a few seconds and then closed his eyes. Then, his lips broke into a faint bitter smile as he reached out with his
hand to touch the surface of the building.

At first touch, an unnoticeable vibrational wave traveled across the structure and reached the ground underneath.
Then, he mumbled under his breath with his eyes closed, "Old friend, I am afraid we might need your assistance in this battle..."
After a moment of silence, Quantix Prime heard a low deep hum resound in his ears. It seemed gentle, endearing and carried a
hint of rage in it.
But, Quantix Prime's smile widened a little, knowing that feeling of rage wasn't directed at him, but at those coming to disturb his
Old Friend's peace.
"I am count...No, the entire realm is counting on you..."
With one last pat on the building, Quantix Prime phased out and resurfaced at the gates of the city, standing side by side with his
loyal troops.
There might be close to a million powerful fighters, ranging from Vibronoxians to other citizens from different races, but all of
them had a single emotion painted on their faces.
Dread...Pure fear as they watched the little black dot get bigger and bigger until it covered the entire colorful sky...
'My lord, be careful.' Xylos warned with a solemn tone as he eyed Quantaar City, 'The entire city is a slumbering ancient monster.
No one had the honor to witness it in action, so we have no idea what to expect.'
'It doesn't matter how strong it is.' Apollo remarked indifferently, "Nothing can stand before my arm..."
Before Apollo could finish his sentence, a sudden vibrational wave was released from the heart of the city, resounding in
everyone's minds.
Then...Ka-Thumb! Ka-Thumb!...
The ground beneath the city began to quake with a rhythmic throb, resembling a heartbeat, attracting everyone's attention.
Creek Creek!...
Meanwhile, buildings and structures started to shift and groan as if breathing a deep, slumberous breath after eons of rest.

Before anyone could make a sense of what was happening, with a sound like the world cracking open, the entire city began to
transform!!
Massive structures spread like the wings of a colossal bat, their surfaces gleaming with a rainbow glow that cycled through a
spectrum of eerie colors!
"It's happening, he is awakening..."
Dankin uttered with a clue of fear and worship as he watched the streets and alleys warp and converge towards the city center,
forming the body of an enormous behemoth, while the tallest spires bent to form what appeared to be a monstrous head!
At the center of this titanic bat-like entity, a single, massive eye opened.
The glowing eye stared at the dark army, emitting strong vibrational waves, each pulse stronger than the last and capable of
distorting reality itself!
These vibrations weren't merely defensive, they interacted with the fabric of reality in such a way that the space around the city
began to warp and twist!
Apollo immediately brought a halt to his advancing army, knitting his eyebrows deeply at the sight of the shifting realities near the
massive monstrosity.
'What a monster...' Apollo murmured.
Even as a unigin and with an army stretching for billions of kilometers, he realized that he might have been underestimating the
Quantaar.
Auras never lied and currently, Quantaar's aura was so strong and dreadful, that he was almost certain that he might be one of
the strongest entities in the quantum realm, if not the strongest!
'Well, this is going to be fun.'
Meanwhile, Aeolus, Athena, and Artemis were seen using their spiritual pressure to hide themselves as they watched this epic
confrontation.
At the center of this whole mess, Felix was still going through the soul recovery process, having no idea that a war was about to
start right above his head.

That's right!
The forest he was hidden in was the battlefield separating Apollo's army and the Vibronoxian Empire!
He wasn't hidden that far from the surface!
