Chapter 511 Medes And Persians
The talk between Andronze and Lanterk had just ended. The alliance was set, and the countermeasures were made in case of an attack.
The power of Lanterk began to affect the countries surrounding Egypt.
In the land of the Desert Empire, constant fighting could be seen as more and more of the robots were turning against their creators.
The South Western Caliphate region was also going through an upheaval, and the ships that were crossing the Suez Canal had all sunk as the Exoskeletons and Armors in the ship began to shoot and rampage.
It was clear, especially to the Presiders, that Lanterk protected Egypt.
Greece declared an alliance with Egypt, and several massive floating fortresses were deployed and began to move toward Egypt. 𝘧𝗿ee𝚠𝙚𝙗𝑛o𝚟𝐞l.𝐜૦𝗺
Demands for the Desert Empire to retreat were made. The WGP was also called, and Greece urged it to withdraw unless the god of Greece would enact terrors to its numerous bases. And finally, the people responsible for commandeering the stolen Orbital were called to abandon the ship and retreat.
But despite all of these threats, the numerous groups plaguing Egypt didn't stop but even began to act wildly, and numerous skirmishes erupted in the area.
The numerous threats had forced Andronze to gather all of its forces and amass the millions of soldiers in one place. But as that happened, the Orbital, the Desert Empire, and the Many Mansions of the WGP had stopped.
Andronze was immensely angry. Despite her efforts to block the attack, she quickly lost more and more grounds and finally decided to have her entire army gather in their massive, sky-piercing fortress.
Millions of soldiers emerged, and the world was shocked at what possibly was the largest army the Presiders on Earth had ever formed rose.
Andronze brought out everything and prepared for battle.
She sat on her throne at the great heights of her Babel Tower and looked down on the world.
"How treacherous of the Lost Primordial and the Progenitor. After taking much land, they issue a full retreat. They want me to fight the Presiders... But with Lanterk, that battle should begin in a few weeks!" Andronze laughed as she observed the thick sea of clouds. Her tower rose above the clouds themselves, and numerous massive weapons were ready to make short and range attacks at an instance.
Thoughts of contacting the Nile Serpent had crossed her mind, but she was afraid to reveal its existence. Not with so many potential Top-Tiers scanning her every move.
"Garenjazz, Myrth, Tiana, and other secret Top-Tiers ought to be watching my every move! Our only advantage is their disunity. If those Top-Tiers and Mid-Tiers attack me, they risk being attacked by the Progenitor and the Lost Primordial. Is it possible that they will form a secret alliance and agree to make a united front against me?" Andronze asked.
A small boy that was made of metal was standing next to her. But unlike before, this metal golem was not controlled by Universe Technology but by a satellite link that connected Egypt and Greece.
"Not a chance. You've seen what happened to our battle underwater. The moment after we fought, they appeared to attack Each Presiders will be attacking each other if one surfaced. So everyone is playing the waiting game. No one would dare to attack because they will be attacked themselves." Lanterk answered.
"So the question they have to ask is if they will be willing to risk it?" Andronze asked.
"The answer is yes." A voice suddenly thundered from the skies above.
The dark clouds suddenly began to boom with lightning as a lightning storm began.
Andornze and Lanterk were stunned as they heard the voice.
Andronze quickly activated numerous protocols that called on their base's force fields and shields.
BOOM! BOOM!
A massive river suddenly burst out of the ground of the desert. All of the Nile began to move like a massive serpent and gathered around the fortress. It became a living moat that protected the entire area, and water serpents of all forms began to appear.
A mighty force field covered the entire Babel fortress.
Sun began to form at the very top of the tower of Babel as intense energy continued to gather.
"Resist as you might. But the words of the prophecy will be fulfilled. Mene Mene Tekel Upharsin. Your days are numbered. You have been weighed in the balance and have been to be guilty. And your kingdom will be divided to the Medes and the Persians." The voice continued to speak.
"Where is the source of the voice?!" Andronze shouted and commanded his team.
"It seems to be coming from... everywhere. All of the matter is vibrating to create this sound. It must be that man who was believed to have attacked and trapped Pridgeon. Richie!" Lanterk frowned.
"Presider Andronze... Your number is up!" 1 ƒr𝙚𝙚𝘸e𝚋𝐧૦ѵ𝒆𝒍.𝒄𝒐m
The entire land began to vibrate as the voice spoke.
"They dare attack me?!" Andronze roared.
Suddenly, the entire skies began to brighten as lightning and thunder began to course throughout the dark land.
All the lightning suddenly condensed together, and the figure of a masked man stood over the heavens with lightning charges booming and attacking the force field.
The man stood and held lightning which took the form of a sword.
"The first of the Medes has arrived!" Richie's voice crackled as Lennox took form.
"I am the Progenitor!" Lennox declared.
A whirling tornado began to form as the storm clouds became even more chaotic.
The Orbital suddenly appeared out of the clouds.
"What?! That's the Orbital! How did it move here in an instant!" Andronze was stunned.
Reports suddenly arrived indicating that the Orbital that was stolen had suddenly disappeared!
"It teleported. Obviously." Lanterk frowned.
"That's impossible! That ship doesn't have the technology to teleport!"
"It must be them, then. The same foes that fought me with the strange teleportation of passing through a strange realm." Lanterk answered.
Inside it was Hermes, the Void Assassin, and the Realm King.
"This is a good ship..." The Realm King laughed as he continued to read the ship's schematics.
"Why are you so obsessed with the blueprint of the ship?" Hermes asked.
"All in good time, mate. All in good time!" Lioncourt answered.
"The Medes have arrived. Now it's time for the Persians to show themselves!" Richie's voice echoed out once more.
Three lights flashed up the sky, and three connected pillars that carried a platform with an entire city above it flashed out and appeared.
"Myrth!" Andronze cursed as she saw the Presider that managed to blast away and damage her Pyramid.
The massive pillars touched the ground, and its towering city overlooked the Nile river gathered around the Babel.
But even before Myrth could speak, several lights flashed over the sky like an aurora. The lights condensed and gathered together, and a strange explosion of cosmic dust appeared. A strange orb that somehow compressed an entire massive point of space had appeared.
Andronze recognized the ship that appeared. This was the Presider who had what many would consider the opposite of Shakstress.
It was as if an entire world was inside this strange orb with space that looked like galaxies.
"Even Tiana!" Andronze cursed.
"This is impossible! Why are all of them here!"
Several more massive ships appeared as they breached through the land traveling in Hyperspace.
Straviaa. Enderks. Feyor. The ships began to emerge one by one.
Andronze couldn't help but tremble at the sight. It didn't make sense for all of them to march at once in war. They could never unite for a singular cause as all would suspect each other.
The space above the battlefield began to change. A strange red cloud was gathering, and it was clear that the dimensions were being breached.
Another ship appeared outside of the red mist.
"Garenjazz! And that ship that moved out of it... It should be Zeraphine! Why are they all here?!" Andronze cursed.
"Medes and Persians. Mankind and Presiders. Let the division begin!"
