Infinite Mana In The Apocalypse c1-705

  The result of all of these small battles across the Dark Expanse came together to provide Aldrich more and more Fate Lines, his eyes opening brightly as he reached 9,917,134 Fate Lines at this moment!

  99% comprehension of the Supreme Law of Fate!

  All he required was less than 100,000 Fate Lines, less than a single percentage and his goals would be achieved.

  His eyes shook with a strong light as he felt as if all his goals were right in front of him, as if he could actually reach out and grasp them with just a wave of his hands! He looked at the golden barrier of light that stood between him and something wondrous as he knew the moment he achieved the full comprehension of the Law of Fate, this barrier would not be a problem for him!

  This was because he could feel the barrier was created by the essence of fate, but it was so pure that nobody in the Novus Galaxy could have achieved its level of purity. Not unless they had mastered this Supreme Law.

  "When I first began my journey, I thought I was a chosen child you know?"

  He spoke out with a reminiscent smile while staring at the golden barrier of light, Fate Lines continuing to descend around him every now and then.

  "Stronger than all of my peers, venturing into the vastness of space and even coming across this bountiful Central Realm. It felt like I was on a golden path of greatness that only climbed higher...a path meant for things I could not even imagine."

  Yes! He felt like a hero writing his own story, his adventures only seeming to propel him higher and higher as time passed!

  "Yet you tore all that down in a matter of minutes. Erased years worth of work in but an instant as you sent just a single one of your lackeys you call Terrors. Do you know how mad you can drive someone by dangling something so great in front of them only to take it away thereafter? Without so much as a word?!"

  His voice was gradually rising higher and higher, one being able to see the light of madness slowly shining out of the depth of genius of a being that was actually pitting himself against his own home!

  "It's enough to make any being take drastic measures."

  The light in his eyes shimmered down as he moved his hands forward and twirled the golden essence of fate around him.

  "The recent events have made me wonder though- have you found another toy to play with? Another being you're planning on elevating to a high stature?"

  His eyes shone with the light and knowledge that felt terrifying for a single being to have, speaking about things he should have no conclusive ideas about, but he knew he was thinking in the right direction!

  "I wonder...if you will tear them down from that high place you're elevating them just like you did to me…"

  His thoughtful expression remained on his face as he rose up, nobody being able to answer his question as the golden light of fate wrapped around him. He glanced at the golden barrier one last time before he began moving away.

  "Well, it doesn't really matter. I'm nearly there. All of this, even you...none of it will matter."

  He said these words in a foreboding tone as he seemed to have a grander plan at hand than just the Last War and achieving complete comprehension of a Supreme Law. As for what exactly he had planned? Only he knew at this moment!

  ---

  In the Infinite Realm, Noah's second clone was transforming the medicinal plants filled with the essence of Chaos and Fate that he just harvested from [Automatic Planting and Harvesting] into pills while using the [Alchemy Hall] feature, the upgrades this time allowing the process of pill formation to be even faster than when he used his {Forge of Silver Flame} skill.

  His gaze was playing out the events with Athena as he popped these pills filled with the essence of fate and chaos, the number of Chaos Particles and Fate Lines continuing to increase within him on top of the vibrant show of colors playing out around him as he was also performing dual cultivation for both fate and chaos, and fire and water.

  His rapid progression of laws became even faster as his mind was thinking of the coming battle that would be unlike anything else, the involvement of multiple Star Forging Experts as well as the play he would have to enact with Athena.

  All of these things swirled around his mind as he continued to move with three bodies, hundreds of Chaos Particles and Fate Lines continuing to rush towards him ceaselessly. While others would take numerous weeks or months to achieve just 100,000 Fate Lines, he was doing it in a matter of days or sometimes just hours!

  This created a situation where two beings in the Novus Galaxy were all racing towards the complete comprehension of a Supreme Law, but their speeds were so vastly different that they could not even be compared!

  Chapter 561 - Set Off

  At the location where large amounts of Celestials were cl.u.s.tered together as they came to form an enormous Legion, the one who would be leading at the forefront was standing in the command room of the Realm Dreadnaught while staring out to the numerous Warsh.i.p.s floating in the void of space.

  The command room was placed at the very front of the continental sized vessel, being extremely wide and vast as it gave an expansive view of everything occurring outside while hiding everything inside from the eyes of those prying.

  Athena, the War Princess that would lead this enormous legion filled with Star Forging Commanders was overlooking the expanse of space as numerous thoughts crossed through her mind, many that she did not have the answers to!

  "I never imagined your Noble Fate would be this grand. It makes your Master feel proud even now."

  Beside her, the voice of Grandmaster Vredral rang out as he stroked his white beard with a prideful expression, his position continuing to be elevated as his disciples rose ever so higher.

  Athena looked at this being she knew as her Master, her eyes hiding the dangerous light that came whenever she thought about Grandmaster Luo and this Grandmaster Vredral.

  Her master knew exactly what Grandmaster Luo had done, and even he used to do it himself in the past! These powerful beings pulled the strings as they affected billions of beings in the light expanse, spreading the same chaos that she herself promised to stand against!

  But...did any of it matter?

  Athena's thoughts were despondent as even while knowing all of this, even if she aimed her sword at the beings that a particular person pointed her to at this moment...she felt like it would all be for naught.

  This was because she knew the power of the organization extremely well, and she knew the impossibility of standing against them! Thus she was very perplexed at Crixus who had managed to bind her through blood and threats, currently telling her how to act and what to do as he actually went against Celestials!

  "Athena?"

  Grandmaster Vredral turned towards her as she didn't reply, her thoughts coming back as she released a fake smile while talking.

  "Sorry, Master. I was basking in the glory of it all myself. We should be setting off soon, yes?"

  "Haha yes, yes. Crixus, you need to show even more exemplary abilities in the coming battle to not be left behind by your Senior Sister!"

  Vredral continued stroking his beard wisely as he turned to a calm Crixus on the side, Athena's eyes also turning towards him as they trembled with an unknown light.

  Noah smiled while looking at Vredral and Athena, his voice ringing out clearly.

  "It will be a battle to remember."

  His words were released as they held different meanings to the people that heard them! Athena heard these words as she sensed something foreboding while imagining exactly what this being that used to be her Junior Brother was planning, while Grandmaster Vredral only nodded while looking forward to battle where his disciples were at the forefront!

  But he was not privy to the telepathic conversations that Noah was currently having with Athena as he garnered all the information available to the being who would be directing powerful experts around the battlefield because of her unique skill, {Precognition}.

  He now knew of the presence of 8 Star Forging Indi
viduals, his heart shaking as he found out this number because it truly represented something grand! If he could actually play this coming battle well, it meant he could possibly bring under his heel 8 Star Forgers!

  Think of the Fate Lines!

  Think of the Loot or the Skill Points!

  His heart was shaking because they provided him with such an abundant feast that he did not even know how to best make use of it. He had the War Princess who would actually be commanding this enormous force led by 8 Star Forgers, so he had a lot of leeway to strategize and possibly set a trap that would allow him to sweep all of these powerful Star Forgers away.

  RUMBLE!

  The space around him began shaking as he was taken out of his thoughts, the enormous Realm Dreadnaught beginning to move as a drove of Prime Warsh.i.p.s accompanied it along. In the wide command room, there was also the presence of 2 Star Forging Celestial Commanders that were the ones providing the energy to run the Realm Dreadnaught smoothly, the one at the forefront speaking out as the Legion began to move.

  "Commander Athena, you can have your {Precognition} skill active as we near our target. We are to treat the 9th Infernal Lord as an extremely dangerous figure who can dispose of Star Forgers that have yet to achieve half comprehension of a law with ease. Thus, me and Commander Lylle who have obtained an Authority of a universal law will face him in close combat, with you sending us the information of what your ability tells you in real time."

  The voice of the green-haired Commander Verdant rang out strongly, causing Athena to nod her head that was filled with too many thoughts.

  Her {Precognition} skill would be ready as the battle began, but she wondered how all of it would go down as these Celestial Commanders who were waiting for her directions would actually be receiving directions that someone else commanded her.

  Her heart was tumultuous as it wanted to return to one that was valiant and ready to eradicate any beings causing Chaos, but she knew her power would not be able to allow her to achieve anything she wanted.

  Even though she was angry and wanted to confront and bring to account Grandmaster Vredral for his role in her life, she knew the moment she acted the Star Forging Celestials would use their powerful energies to stop her. Even if she had to atone for all the lives she had taken with her own hands under the orders of others, she could not as the only person special to her was holding on to her life!

  The Celestials she had considered to be her family but were actually beings spreading chaos were standing on one side, and the being that had bound her by blood and had destructive energies swirling around her heart was standing on the other side. Even though she had told Crixus that she would stay true to her heart and point her sword to those causing chaos, she doubted if she was strong enough to do so!

  The War Princess did not know how all of this would be resolved as this chosen Commander led an enormous Legion filled with hundreds of thousands of Celestials and packed with 8 Star Forgers towards the Verittas Fortress.

  She led them towards the location where she knew Crixus would ultimately command her to betray them. She led them to the location that she knew would most likely be her death as Crixus made her atone for all she had done.

  The thoughts of the War Princess were sad and melancholic as her awareness secretly focused on a single being in the expansive command room while her gaze continued facing forward, her mouth already beginning to release Commands as many vessels thundered forth at full speed towards the Verittas Fortress!

  Chapter 562 - No Need!

  Noah's main body continued to act as the 9th Infernal Lord at the Verittas Fortress, his gaze peaceful as he awaited the arrival of a huge force of Celestials.

  His second clone that remained in the Infinite Realm was currently utilizing the feature of [Library] as he doc.u.mented his abilities as well as the first stage of his skill trees in order for his subordinates to copy and learn them, contributing to boosting their strength by a wide margin as he wasn't the only one increasing in strength.

  The feature of [Library] was a unique one, an ancient styled building that had the ornament of an opened book being erected near the center of the Infinite Realm that anyone can access.

  Inside of this actual Library, there were different levels that all held varying skills from Noah, each of them in their own books that his subordinates could go in to touch and learn if they had the required level of strength.

  This Library could also be accessed through his [Pocket Realm] with the portals he laid out there, so even those that were already around him at the Verittas Fortress could quickly access it and learn new skills!

  As for Noah himself, he was currently glancing at the progress he had made just in the past few days as he fully utilized the law spaces, dual cultivation sessions, Authorities, as well as the highly potent planted herbs containing dense fate and chaos essence as he glanced at his Stat panel.

  [Noah Osmont][Title(s): Infernal Lord(Variant)]

  [Bloodline(s): Vampyre Progenitor]

  [Fate Line(s) : 5,438,365]

  [Chaos Particle(s) : 2,021,264]

  [Origin Core(s) : Fire-5, Water-5]

  [Domain(s) : Fate,Chaos, Space, Fire, Water]

  [Vitality: STAR FORGER]

  [Focus: - ]

  [Strength: STAR FORGER]

  [Law(s) : Fate-55%,Chaos-20%,Space-8%, Fire-57%, Water-57%]

  [Authority(s) : Fate Lord, Flame Lord, Water Lord]

  His Chaos Particles were actually rising at a more rapid rate than even his Fate Lines at this moment, the use of {{Fate Lord's Authority}} to amass more chaos particles being extremely potent. Compared to Fate Lines, the Chaos Particles actually had triple the rate of progress in the past few days by amassing close to 600,00.

  This was a terrifying number to imagine, but Noah made it possible!

  Even though they were rising this rapidly though, he knew his progression in the law of fate would blow every other law progression out of the water with the cause being the coming battle. Truly too many beings were delivering themselves to him, and he had [Fate Stealer] when it came to the law of fate!

  His eyes continued scanning the starry space surrounding the Verittas Fortress as he watched the deployment of numerous Infernal Legions under the 6th Infernal Lord, as well as a multitude of Mages and Wizards accompanied by parties of devilishly handsome Vampyres.

  The many Commanders were moving about rapidly as they strengthened their ranks and prepared, a heavy atmosphere spreading out as they had to once again defend this important location!

  Noah was currently conversing with Old Man Inuit as he monitored the situation around the Verittas Fortress. He was sending telepathic messages as he provided the old strategist with information that would be used to deploy the forces of the Dark Expanse to expertly match the Celestial Legions.

  At the same time, he sent a message about how the coming Celestial Legion where even his other clone that was known as Crixus was coming along had a force of 8 Star Forging Celestial Commanders.

  On the other side of space, Old Man Inuit heard this as he rose from his seat abruptly.

  "What?! 8 Star Forgers? I'll send reinf-"

  Noah laughed lightly as he quickly sent back a reply while sensing the worry in the old man's voice. Even though Old Man Inuit knew of Noah's ability and trusted in it, it was still terrifying to imagine a force of a Realm Dreadnought and 8 Star Forging Realm experts coming for you!

  "No need."

  "..."

  Old Man Inuit stood with a blank face as he heard these words, his aged ears distinguishing them from words that many would think were of arrogance to those of plain confidence!

  From Noah's words, Old Man Inuit actually felt a level of confidence that showed Noah did not have even a semblance of worry!

  Inuit did not know what show of power to expect, but never in his wildest dream could he imagine that Noah had very little worries because he was effectively controlling the enemy commander of the coming Legion.

&nb
sp; Even though the commander was weak at the World Rank, the Star Forging Realm experts that listened to her words were the targets that he set his eyes on!

  He was planning on making sure that he would be able to personally take down most if not all of these Star Forging Commanders, as he speculated he would be able to pull a significant number of Fate Lines just from them in this one battle.

  The number of Fate Lines he could possibly get made this battle extremely significant as it could potentially hand him three or four million Fate Lines, double what he got in the prior two battles! For this reward that could potentially push him to 80% or even possibly nearly complete the comprehension of the law of fate, it was too important! Even the discarding of his identity with Athena's coming betrayal was nothing if he could really get his hands on a few million fate lines.

  He looked towards making this dream into a reality as he thought of amassing a shocking number of Fate Lines in one day that would take others hundreds of years!

  It was truly too ridiculous.

  Too balance breaking! Too unfair to any others properly studying the universal laws!

  Yet it was something that Noah thought about simply turning into a reality.

  "Oh, and during the fight at the Verittas Fortress, they will be using the other Realm Dreadnaughts to advance forward at the Blackscale Stronghold, the Icy Supercl.u.s.ter…"

  He continued his conversation with Inuit as he planned, numerous hidden information that he now had access to within the Realm Dreadnaught he was moving in were also shared with the Old Man for him to spread to Vladivostok and the forces of the Dark Expanse, the defenses being set up against the Celestials expected to hold off all of these forces moving behind the scenes.

  The state of war was constant and ever-moving, where they were currently at the stage where Celestials were still taking the lead.

  With their plot during the failed assassination of the 9th Infernal Lord, they had advanced far into the Dark Expanse as they now needed a single stronghold to fall in order to consolidate these newly gained areas before they broke through into the inner depths of the Dark Expanse.
