Years. In the age that followed, the Aragarians orchestrated many events that made the WGP ban space travel altogether.
A team of Pioneers launched a satellite to make it look like it was traveling in space, only to create pods in space that was actually one part of a base! It was planning to create a base and make it look like an orbiting asteroid space.
And so, the WGP banned space travel and only allowed the moon to be populated. But ultimately, the moon had bases built by governments and opposing corporations to ensure that no one was taking advantage of the moon. But unknown to them, the antagonistic and blood-fueled battles between governments and companies on Earth were only a cover. Since most of those on the moon were Aragarians, they always leaked false information about possible launches and space operations that made the WGP angry.
And so, for decades, space travel was not allowed.
Yet now, Earth was quickly perfecting the science of space travel.
The knowledge of Presider-grade techs about the theories of space travel was leaked all over the world under the name of the Progenitor. They were giving the nations a chance to fight back or escape. Dug Down Deep techs that allowed cities to be buried were also being revealed. Underwater life techs were also initiated, which made many nations create an escape city for the coming wars.
Mines were being depleted, and the search for new materials continued worldwide.
Surprisingly, Russia opened its great land to allow the exports of metals. Many of their underground cities had surfaced, and a massive mountain known as the Great Kremlin emerged. The leaders of Russia had finally called out to the Progenitor to ask for more technologies, including space travel. They promised to remain neutral in the coming wars as they have generally taken on in the past.
They were given technologies to create an Orbital!
Apart from that, New Great Britain had perfected their weather technology and altered the weather of the entire earth. This change gave many nations ample environment to prepare for the war that was to come.
The Greco-Roman empire and the Caliphates were the only places that experienced war. As a result, many of the Unlocked armies were using these lands as a testing ground to develop their strength.
All of Earth hoped that the strange peace they now experienced compared to the last months of fear and war would remain as long as possible.
But up in space, a small stellar capable ship was made and traveling through deep space. It had been the fourth day since their maiden voyage.
"Space.... The final frontier. These are the voyage of the starship Latias. Its continuing mission is to infiltrate the Presider's Mothership. To delay the arrival of the Presiders and Principals. To boldly go where no man has gone before! Right up, Uranus." Gardo narrated.
The Path of Gardo caused many to laugh within the ship.
Even Jake couldn't believe that he once hated nearly everyone on this ship and was clapping his lap so hard from Gardo's joke.
The team rode a powerful ship that had several Paths infused in it.
It could vanish in sight, it could pass through metals, it could enter the Void Realm, and it was capable of wielding several Thrones.
The ship was piloted by Guinevere. Her Path was compatible with this ship as it was created similarly to the Nile Serpent. It was alive and could recover and grow.
Powering it was also easy. Meryl, who could gain energy from the sun, would use her heat to power it. Lynd could also do the same. But most of all, because everyone gathered inside, a miracle occurred. The Paths of each other would work together, and the mystery of their numerous Thrones gave birth to a new power.
Seeker saw it as he sat down on his Throne.
Lynd was also seated on another Throne. As they sat down, a powerful force would cover the ship and create Universe Energy!
It had to be Seeker and Lynd who could now harness the power of Unity. Not even Cliff could help them.
Lennox V 3.3.0's consciousness was uploaded inside the ship and helped Guinevere pilot the ship.
And with the slow creation of Universe Energy, the group could perform numerous alterations to the power.
"Guin. Has the ship fully recovered?" Lennox V 3.3.0 asked.
"Yes, father. It has. Shall we begin energy variation test number seven?" Guin asked.
"Yes. Everyone, to your positions."
Rai, Jake, and Irvana sat on their Thrones.
Presider Madelyne watched once more as the mystery of their power worked again.
"I can't believe they didn't have raw Universe Energy! They defeated Presiders with these techs!" Madelyne couldn't believe what they saw.
With the three seated on their Thrones, Lennox V 3.3.0 began to give off specific commands.
"Meryl. Limit your flame output by two percent compared to the next. Seeker and Lynd, we need a constant flow of Universe Energy. And Cliff. Do it."
SMACK!
Cliff punched Vender with such great force that he was knocked out.
"Seal up Vender."
Cliff held on to Vender's head and used his powers to create a dream for him to keep Vender in a loop of dreams. Harker tied him up as Lowengren began to whisper lies to him.
"Sealing complete," Gardo reported. His joke was necessary to throw Vender off guard, and the team was able to knock him out.
"And let's go!" Seeker ordered.
The ship began to tremble as Guinevere began to use her powers to wield all the sources of Paths to charge up the ship. Finally, the ship tore through reality and forcibly entered the Void Realm. Jake and Irvana's power were merging and caused the ship's structure to transform.
Guinevere held all the different Realms and used Seeker and Lynd's power to maintain stability. Then, finally, Universe Energy appeared and powered the ship.
The speed of the ship moved into the Void Realm, and it kept up its speed.
They acquired the theoretical powers that the Presiders couldn't achieve at that moment. They were moving outside of the Three-Dimensions and found safe passage within the Void Realm. Their speed surpassed Light and reached hyperspace travel!
"...We did it!" Lennox's voice echoed out of the console.
Lynd, Seeker, Cliff, Jake, Gardo, Lowengren, and Harker had tears appearing on their eyes. The lifelong romance of men who desired sci-fi stories was finally before them. They were moving in hyperspace.
"I.. feel kind of sorry for knocking out Vender. He's such a Star wars fan, after all!" Gardo cried tears.
"... I can't believe the Top Tiers lost to you..." Madelyn shook her head.
Meryl chucked as she watched on while their combined powers caused the Latias to move with great speed.
"When will we arrive on that ship?" Seeker asked.
"Fifteen minutes at this speed. And this why we need to stop at the thirteenth minute so that we won't appear right over them. We need to recover our energy so we can infiltrate that place. We must also stop to prepare to escape if this is a trap. But it's highly unlikely." Lennox explained.
"Me? Trap you? Why would I? It would be like squishing a bug!" Then, a voice was heard, and everyone was alarmed.
The voice that they heard was not of sound. It was like telepathy.
"...Principal Dormin." Seeker frowned.
"Seeker Carlean. By the looks of it, I think you are the most likely candidate for this... Progenitor! The Lost Primordial is dead that I am certain. But it's nice that he still hasn't backed out from the Prime Wars!" Principal Dormin laughed.
"...I wonder what Principal Dormin has to say to us, bugs?"
"Well... only you guys have to be careful. You will soon reach their range, and they can sense you. You have not soundproofed your ship, and while your current form is impressive, it might draw the attention of everyone here. They are using a Principal-level ship."
"... The light! The energy was releasing! Guinevere! Activate the Sun Devourer protocol!"
"Smart! Nice!" Dormin laughed as Guinevere began to use her powers that caused the light created by their combined attack to vanish.
"...That's better! Now those Presiders won't know what is coming!" Principal Dormin laughed.
"Why are you helping us?" Harker asked.
"Boredom, of course. The current state of this ship is that no one is fighting! Even my Presiders are too drained to fight. The ship itself can't move fast. So if you hurried here, it would be awesome."
"You could have used your power to move the ship and end us."
"...But how would I conquer? I came here to Conquer. I need a foe worthy of being devoured to help me ascend to Prime. So give me a show. A part of me is rooting for you. The Lost Primordial fought equally against the Primordial. Isn't it obvious that I would yearn for this power? Have a safe trip!"
At once, the strange connection that Principal Dormin had over them vanished.
