,m The combined attack of Hermes and Ceasar was never meant to attack or damage the stellar energy. It was all to make Lennox have the chance to move in it.

The massive orb was using the Universe energy to harness massive amounts of energy and to cause this energy to breach the dimensions beyond.

The harnessed stellar energy used science that obeyed the physical laws but also a far more advanced science that looked like magic. Harnessing this power was impossible on earthling science alone. But now, Earth happened to gain impossible things to make this study possible.

And that was Seeker Carlean.

One of the studies that Lennox had to make was how to observe and analyze the scenario of Seeker's death. The first thing Lennox prioritized was digitizing Seeker's memory into a real 4-dimensional experience. Creating a downloadable program that Seeker could interact with was the first step. As Seeker's brain got used to it, Lennox could soon feel Seeker's pain when he dove in, as shown in his memory.

Seeker's untapped potential as the Truth allowed Seeker to change the flow of the stellar energy and used the miniature stellar science in his Four Force Accelerator and increase the speed of the core going supernova.

Through that, several theories were made on what energy it was.

When the team acquired the Leviathan and the alliance with the Everhiss family, the known science in studying Throne Technology and creating the WGP's Origin energy helped Lennox greatly.

With Lioncourt, the group even got closer to having a theorized method of creating the star. When Seeker and Lynd first fought and revealed the two opposite ways to gather energy, this study advanced by leaps and bounds. Attempts to create and finalize a cultivator's body and use this science as its core to recreate the energy was an advanced science even by Presider standards.

This was the very dilemma that Mid Tiers had to figure out to step into Top Tier.

Finally, the capture of Shackstress's base opened a new field of study. Lennox had already perfected a science that would allow him to manipulate the same stellar energy that Seeker dove into when committing suicide.

The application allowed Lennox to use his powers to hijack the star and alter its attacks.

It didn't take long before the stellar energy suddenly released its attack.

Andronze couldn't even give orders for his team to alter and change the surging power as it shot out even before it managed to gather all of the energy.

Andronze had prepared a few main targets to be attacked with this energy, but Lennox manipulated it and made the energy split up and attack numerous Presiders.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

A beam of harnessed stellar energy shot towards two locations.

The first was one of the intended targets.

The strange dreamworld of Garenjazz was the target.

A massive bolt of red lightning shot towards it, causing massive explosions, and the strange mist and smoke that hovered over the sky were blown away. Then, the Hypersphere ship of Garenjazz was revealed again; now, it had huge damage on its outer rims.

Zeraphine's ship was also seen at the side, and both had colossal damage.

Another attack rocked the combined defenses of Tiana and Feyor. The two-faced a larger beam than the rest.

"Block it!" Tiana cursed, and the two Presiders worked together to defend against the attack.

Another attack was aimed at Pridgeon and Straviaa's ship. A portion of Straviaa's ship was incinerated, and the beam bombed the ship of Pridgeon. But at the last second, Gordon's ship appeared and took the full brunt of the attack, and Gordon used up a lot of his Universe Energy to teleport and block the attack.

The last attack was Andronze's base! 𝘧r𝘦𝗲w𝘦𝚋𝐧o𝘷𝘦𝙡.co𝑚

The energy shot down and destroyed the massive tower over the heavens.

Andronze had to use massive energy to block and move out of the way. But the command center of her fortress was damaged by her weapon!

BOOM!

The attacks rippled out, and chaos followed.

Zulu had used his powers to resurrect the dead soldiers to begin attacking others, and now, he awakened more people who died by being exposed to the stellar beam that Andronze sent out.

And with all groups suddenly attacking everyone in a melee, the ambush against Andronze had now turned into a free-for-all.

The Tyrant Empress watched as Lennox sent out the beam and confirmed that he had vanished. She felt anger rising up but with it was a realization.

"Lennox used two contradicting emotions to divide his thoughts forcibly. His attraction to me was more than just a parasite in his mind. It lingered in his heart. His other soul wanted to save her daughter so much. Unlike the rest of Lennox's AI, the one that severed me was a real person born from the attraction and captivation of his soul. Never again can this happen, and never again will I acquire another Lennox. I have failed to keep that soul with me because of the plots of Arthur and Lowengren, who arranged all this to kill that soul. But this also means that my power is not just mere lust. It calls and affects the soul." The Tyrant Empress closed her eyes and wanted to affirm her realization.

Her power was not just beauty. Her power had already transformed and taken shape into something much more powerful.

Millions of soldiers taking part in the war as members of different Presider groups suddenly saw a strange vision.

They could see the shocking face of the Tyrant Empress.

"Fight for me." The whisper of the Empress spoke.

"Kill all who do not wish to serve me." The Empress commanded.

Immediately, these affected men began to wage war on those around them.

The Empress gazed upwards to the battles of the Overcomers above.

"Follow me!" She declared that it was as if the powers of all the Overcomers who opposed her were being siphoned out.

Richie, Hermes, Akasha, and Gallium went to a full retreat as they felt their powers being robbed.

A quarter of the bats and vampires that served Akasha turned away.

A quarter of the liquid metal creatures that Gallium created also moved out.

And their Paths and Zone were being stolen from them.

"She's too strong!" Hermes cursed and ordered his team to retreat.

Richie also did the same.

"We've lost..." Gallium sighed.

"Such power! My coven doesn't heed me! They are willing to serve her even if they die!" Akasha shouted.

The Tyrant Empress sensed the powers beyond the dimensions that were hampering her beauty and power.

Her power no longer drew away from the desires and emotions within a person's brain. She was not drawing her power from the lust and desires of another. But her power was now reaching for the souls of people! Those who had weak souls were instantly conquered.

The power of the Tyrant Empress grew stronger as she began to drain the power of all the Overcomers.

Ceasar, Zulu, and Eden didn't even bother to fight as they laughed and cheered as they saw their queen conquer.

Lowengren saw the changes on the other battlefield and cursed. However, he quickly observed all the people within the Nile Serpent and confirmed none were affected.

"Soul! Her powers are affecting the soul now! Thankfully, none of them has seen her! But, Guinevere, if you had seen her, you could have betrayed your father and brother as well! That's why I told you not to scan that area!"

"The current number of people showing to be serving her is quite high! I can't get the actual count... but from the ones I can, I already see over 30,000 soldiers betraying allegiances and fighting the enemies of the Tyrant Empress!"

"That Tyrant Empress! She's too dangerous now! The Rider of the Red Horse has awakened!" 𝘧𝓇𝒆𝗲𝓌𝙚𝙗𝓷o𝘷𝒆𝘭.𝐜𝚘𝒎

"Hmm? Lowengren! I detected another presence approach! It's coming from space! And the power and fluctuations and how it bends the three dimensions are as strong as the one caused by that Tyrant Empress!" Guinevere reported to Lowengren.

"What? Someone just like her?! Of course! Only he can stop her now!"

"Who is it? I can sense another meteor approaching too! It's following this person!"

"I was shocked when Seeker told me this person's identity. He's probably the only one strong enough to resist the soul attack of the Empress!"

"Who is he? Why do you think he's the only one who can fight her? What about Seeker? Can't that time traveling reincarnator right her?"

Lowengren shook his head.

"Seeker doesn't have that will to resist it alone. But this man can. Of the many things that Seeker spoke of about his alternate future, he reserved some of the secrets that only me and Arthur knew. And right now, you're about to witness one of his secrets!"

"What secret is this?"

"I lied about the Rider of the Black Horse. Eagle is the White Horse, Meng rides the green and dappled horse, and the Tyrant Empress rides the Black horse. We all implied that someone else would soon rise as an Overcomer and become the Rider of the Black horse. But this was a lie! The truth is, Rider of the White Horse is also the Rider of the Black Horse. The man who united the world and formed the United Earth Armies without fighting and killing a single person in a future war would also be the same person who would later kill the most. In Seeker's original timeline, this man killed more people than all the other Overcomers combined! The Rider of the Black Horse who is death incarnate! He Who Treads the Wine Press of Wrath! Eagle!"
