Chapter 393 - Strong Because We’re Weak

The strange rap continued to bewilder Shakstress that she didn't give the orders to begin her bombardment. When her astral projection reached her body, the first thing Shakstress released was an Anti-Nefilus field around her area.

She had seen Pridgeon and Andronze's possible location and sent her fortress to stand in between both. But the Anti-Nefilus field could cut the communication between two parties.

But then the mention of the words 'shock and stress' made Shakstress wary. Why was her name there?

Little did she know that a strange force was happening on that area. As she began to show her power, the power of Vender also began to work.

The power of the Prophet had already appeared. But now, the power of the False Prophet also emerged.

Vender never knew what he had done in saying those words. But as Arthur and Lowengren believed, Vender broke Shakstress's Zone. To a being who had attained power that breached the known dimensions, Zone was something that she had lived in for a very long time. She did not notice that at that moment, she was out of her Zone.

"Is this a trap?" Shakstress pondered. She became more and more flustered as the strange raps continued.

"Presider... Should we launch the attack now?"

Shackstress began to think. She had just met a powerful Presider. She knew that Pridgeon, Andronze, and Garenjazz were all allied together.

"That woman was confident that Andronza could kill me... Can they detect my location? Impossible. Unless someone is able to sense every grain of sand, no one under the Principal level should be able to detect me..." Shakstress frowned.

BOOM!

An explosion occurred in the sea as two groups from different nations began to fight. They fought because Vender revealed the locations of those two groups the nations began to fight.

"Why is she doing these things?" Shakstress frowned.

"My ethereal form must have been detected because of Garenjazz. But can they find the specific location of my base? No!" Shakstress then glanced at the map to understand the locations of each country.

Every soldier had their finger on the trigger as they watched nervously. Anytime, the ship and weapons could suddenly shoot each other. If it weren't for the strange rap, everyone would have been killing each other.

But the rap contained various shocking information. Vender began to rap the locations of certain special forces moving.

Lowengren also made Vender say some lies that made everyone wary.

The nations were all getting angrier and angrier at Egypt and were planning to launch at attack after pulling back all their secret forces and the missions they were supposed to do.

"I gotta say... Vender's rap game has improved." Lowengren sighed.

"You mean... he was worse?"

"Way worse. I got distracted in the middle of my mission. His Path was still forming, and the effects were spread out and affected both friend and foe."

"Scary." Harker shook his head.

Vender kept rapping. He had a few of Egypt's most advanced technology. He had the Pharaoh's eye, which was a powerful device that could perform various tasks such as calculation, identification, and detection. But Vender was using it to search for words that rhyme with one word he inputted.

"I see you, seven soldiers! Diving down by the murky waters!"

"On the sixth ship from the end of the Canal. There are spies starting a cabal!"

Vender then went on to detail more of their enemies according to Arthur's calculations of where each country would be and their corresponding missions.

"That's it! There's too little fighting!" Shakstress realized it.

"They plan to pit the world against me and alert the WGP. Is that it? No wonder they made so much effort to stop these nations from killing each other! They plan to make me the target! How stupid!" Shakstress laughed.

"Arm the weapons and set the Enlarging Zone!"

The weapons in Shakstress's ship were shrunk by manipulating several dimensions, but if these weapons were to be shot out and pass through the Enlarging Zone, they would revert to their original size.

The Enlarging Zone of the Fortress was several hundreds of meters away from the speck of dust so that all their attacks won't hit each other.

The giant fortress of Shakstress was as large as the ship of Crostfree, and all of it was shrunk. Unlike Crostfree's techs, this technology didn't hide in another dimension but was shrunk due to the spatial manipulation of the three dimensions.

Deep inside, the Presider and her Pioneers were listening to the painful rap of Vender.

"Presider... how much more time do we need? At a push of a button, I can..." A Pioneer gritted his teeth. His most hated part had arrived.

"Rugustsugus Spax! Rugustsugus Spax! Witiwiti waw waw! Uh!" Vender became to beatbox.

"There it is again..." Shakstress frowned. This was another oddity in the rap. Why would a Mid-Tier or a Top-Tier Presider make nonsensical beatboxing that made screeching metal sound pleasant? But since she just unleashed her power and caused links between Nefilus Suits to go haywire, she believed that this was part of their communication process.

"Decrypt those things that madman is spouting!" Shakstress roared.

"Presider, we cannot detect any identifiable pattern in his beatboxing! No morse code, no intelligible pattern, or even any sense of art in this torturous experience!" The Pioneer reported.

Shakstress was also irritated to the extreme.

"Where are the Presiders?" Shakstress asked.

"We've detected two powerful signatures! One of them is within the fourth dimension. It's a huge ship roughly as large as this base. And there is another shuttle moving under Egypt. So some of the smaller forces have been moving, but they aren't releasing any unique energy signatures."

"Keep your eyes out on those two ships. The broadcast should be a means to pass information between them without using Universe Energy!"

"Do we disrupt the broadcast?" Another Pioneer pleaded.

"No. We need to hack it at the needed time. They plan to use these nations as cannon fodder that will attack us. I bet they want to make us waste even just one percent of our power. Let's not blow up these nations! If we use that broadcast to threaten the nations while pretending to be Egypt, the nations might launch an attack towards Egypt, and Andronze's plan would be thrown back at her! That will be the perfect revenge for daring to use stupid earthlings to attack me!"

"I understand, Presider." The Pioneer bowed.

"Prepare my Throne. If it's a fight these fools want, then I'll give them more than they can handle!" Shakstress sneered as she channeled an even powerful version of the Anti-Nefilus zone with the addition of her techs.

The space began to tremble. Everyone within twenty kilometers of the area above Egypt could feel the strange sensation. Space was starting to bend and turn.

Around the world and even those in space could feel the changes, and their sensors picked it up.

Zeraphine and Lanterk also sensed it. The many Presiders on Earth could not help but look over at Egypt.

"That is...!" Straviaa was amazed.

"It seems that it has begun. Some Presiders are now fighting." Enderks gazed at the distance.

"What powerful tech. Anyone who is below Top-Tier can't right now. That space distorts Nefilus Suits!"

"Then Andronze is dead..."

"That's the common way of thinking. But don't assume that we are the only conquerors here if you have some aces at hand. Assume the worse. We don't know what Andronze has. Perhaps it's here where we can see just how strong Presiders are and what our limits will be." Enderks smiled.

The two Presiders in Egypt were panicking. The power was so strong that their Nefilus Suit was being affected.

The process of devouring Crostfree techs needed time to assimilate the techs on his Suit. So Pridgeon could not access everything yet.

"She's here..." Pridgeon noticed the changes in the space and tried to fight it.

"Too wasteful! I'll need to use Universe Energy to fight this one off!" Pridgeon could only rely on a primitive method. But this would exhaust the Universe Energy, which was something he was not willing to pay.

"Damn it! I can't wait for Andronze!" Pridgeon was about to attack, but suddenly, it was as if there were cages that appeared in the fourth dimension, which encased the entire ship of Crostfree.

The strange space was warping around, and it became difficult for the two Presiders to find her.

"This Top-Tier is too strong?! Who is this?! Is this Lanterk? Or is it one of those crazy women?!" Pridgeon cursed.

Sensing the changes, Andronze felt great fear. She asked if this was Garenjazz, for she feared only him as she had personally seen Garenjazz's exploits. She knew that she could not contend with this.

"Too strong!" Andronze cursed. She didn't want to attack anymore.

Communicating with Pridgeon was also dangerous now since their line could be interrupted with someone in a Nefilus suit. And since this Top-Tier surpassed their expectations, the two could not contact them.

The sensors that Andronze had in her suit were being distorted. At first, she could see the changes in the dimensions beyond and could gauge where this large fortress was. But now, she can't.

Andronze looked in horror.

"If those who claim to be from the future are telling the truth, they should know how to fight her!" Andronze suddenly made that call.

"Pioneers! Can that Presider find them?"

"You don't know where the enemy is?" A confused voice replied.

"It's right there! It's quite big too!"

"...Where is it?" Andronze had to humble herself.

"So those naked dudes are stronger than you? Huh... What a world we live in. We'll send you the coordinates."

"I can't use it. The Top Tier is using something that can distort Nefilus Suits."

"Oh... Well, those nude guys sent us coordinates. So you can't make the first move and want us to do it?"

"...Yes."

"What do we get in exchange? We want techs. And I'm talking about Presider techs."

"...Fine. I'll give you the first Judges Call I took."

"Alright. But if it's not as impressive as the ones those naked guys gave..."

"It will be... It's what made Egypt strong."

"Alright. We already have prepared for the attack. Don't worry. Our strength is that we are weak." Lowengren laughed as he disconnected the call.

"Are you sure about this, Arthur? We're leaving a lot of things to luck here!" Lowengren laughed.

"I don't know why, but I'm feeling lucky today.

"Of course not. In any case, after that bomb explodes, we all go out to fight. This will be our first trial.

Unlike the Presiders, the Unlocked received the location of the speck through the Realm King. However, Shackstress was too strong that her entry was something that sparked and triggered the senses of the Overcomer.

The Realm King found it and saw a strange space and found its epicenter. While he could only sense Pridgeon's moving and supra-dimensional fortress, the nature of how space was changing allowed Lioncourt to see the exact location of Shakstress's fortress.

The rockets that Lowengren and Arthur sent were now reaching the region. The speed of their rockets was slow as the rockets were disguised as Armors.

As the Armors neared, Hermes was then informed of the updates of the plan.

"Andronze can't attack the Presider because of a tech that that one above us is using. So to make them think that another Presider is here, Arthur will use those weapons of mass destruction to attack it. We'll have to create a distraction to make their rockets reach it. If we are successful, it ought to damage that fortress enough to show it. Vender can also trick or annoy the other nations that they would attack the place where the bomb explodes."

"The fluctuations alone of those weapons ought to draw attention!"

"That's why we need to create something that will distort it..." Hermes smiled.

"Blood Storm? You want to use it?"

"It'll hide the nuke. We won't make any huge moves with it, though. Just enough to hide it."

"Alright. Gallium. You know how to join this storm?"

"I've seen that attack. I think I can manage. But what will make the nations attack the location of the Presider's base? Is Lowengren preparing a new lie?" Gallium asked.

"Not exactly." Hermes shook his head.

And then, Gallium found the answer.

"I eat my veggies. I eat my peas. Attention! Attention, Attention, please!" Vender continued his rap game.

"Take this! A weapon of mass destruction! So beware! Be scared and take caution!"
