The entire massive fort was Rai's battlefield.

As the Overcomer who has the power to teleport, he was the one who had the fastest skill of moving in around the ship.

The attack and entry of delivering Jake were covered up by faking the power and capability of Rai. And Ria had to constantly teleport to limit the lie that he had made.

But Lanterk was also wary of him, and the entire ship was immediately shifting and changing with his metal technology.

Rai continued to jump in and out of the Void passing through the harshest of obstructions in this odd realm.

Lanterk was also using various techs that somehow superimposed the metal of the three dimensions to breach out in the dimensions causing great instability in the Void.

Had it not been for Seeker's Path of the Passover and how Rai had experimented on it, he would not have been able to complete his first circuit around the entire ship.

He was teleporting from one part of the ship to the other. And Lanterk kept on chasing him and kept him away from the rest of the Unlocked battlefields.

Of everyone fighting, Rai had seen most of what Lanterk could do.

It was an act of constant recreation and modification as the ship would always change as if it was alive.

But this made Lanterk's real body so focused on chasing and stopping Rai from reaching the deepest parts of the ship.

"This damned teleporter is quite annoying! What dimension is he moving into?!" Lanterk cursed.

Lanterk was also busy dealing with Seeker, who was fighting his metal clone.

The battle was brutal as Seeker and his two allies were revealing powers and attacks that were nuclear in power.

He also had to constantly check on the other battles and issue instructions and allow his servants to gather more techs.

But this was all calculated. When the Unlocked fought against Shakstress and saw a mind that surpassed Arthur, they knew that they would have to create a battle of such scale so that Jake would be hidden.

The battles were all complicated, and each was trying to defeat Lanterk. Lanterk was also careful not to use Universe Energy which would cause him great loss.

Lynd was traveling through the Void and could see the Realm Links that Rai left behind. Rai was arguably the second most important Path user in this mission next to Jake. His skills and the power that the Realm King created with him were necessary to complete the mission.

Because of Lynd's copy, Lynd managed to hop and cross several massive chambers as he was trying to push ahead. Lanterk saw it and quickly made the changes, and Lynd had no choice but to stop his teleportation and fight in the chamber he reached. But before he did, he saw one strange power that Rai had left in the Void.

Lynd grabbed on this strange power, and it sunk in him as he finally stepped out of the Void.

The moment he arrived, he immediately saw his enemies. Not a quarter of a second passed, and Lynd had already sent out an attack.

The three people standing at the other end of a wide dome-shaped room made of flat metal all had a strange Skin Suit. There were no doors or exits and no light in this room. But as Lynd shot his attack, the darkroom brightened as if a son was born in this large chamber.

The bright laser blasted out, and the three began to move.

A strange red glow formed a strange outline around the three men as they repelled the attack as a strange shield was formed as the metals around the room gathered as it flew from the sides of the room in the form of what appeared to be mercury.

The liquid metal formed into a small shield that blocked the attacks.

There were no explosions on impact, but the shield began to change in color and form.

Lynd immediately stopped shooting as he saw that the metal was absorbing his attacks.

"How disrespectful. You just went ahead and attacked us without even saying a word!" One of the three complained.

"I was jumping from one room to the other. When I saw that I couldn't move ahead, I just thought of killing all of you. I don't care who you are, and since you will die, I didn't bother for an introduction and just wanted to get the job done and kill." Lynd shrugged.

"I guess you are right. With the three of us here, you won't live anyway. So there is no need to hear the introduction of some pathetic Phallium user." Another one of the three laughed.

"But that is quite an interesting element. This is like the heat of the sun itself! This can be a great research material!" One of the three watched in amazement.

"He is a Presider, after all."

"Hmm. So? Aren't we considered one now? What is a Presider's tech compared to Principal's Lanterk? This is even better than the techs I got from that Gordon!"

"Indeed. Crostfree's techs were useless. Of course, I never saw the full potential as I was assigned on Earth, but compared to our current gear, I can easily have defended and killed the Progenitor and the Lost Primordial when they assassinated Corstfree."

"I even ask myself if Myrth really was a Top-Tier? They aren't even capable of using these techs!" The third one laughed.

"So you all are traitors that Lanterk gathered. I understand now. Lanterk never had a team. How weak. You are just scraps of the rest given great toys. You don't even understand the dignity of a Presider. Do you dare brag about defeating Crostfree, Gordon, and Myrth? Dream on. You aren't even in the discussion!" Lynd laughed.

"We'll see about your arrogance, Progenitor." One of the three laughed back.

The power that Lynd sent out began to rotate around the three, and their suits were releasing the same heat of Lynd's attack.

"Your little fire attack won't damage this metal. What are you going to do now?"

"This is a strange tech of metal. So Lanterk's tech really does focus on metal. And here I thought he was just playing around with his tech." Lynd observed.

He could tell that the metal was not cooling down but somehow absorbed and contained the heat.

"Metal is but an element. But Principal Lanterk has changed metal itself. This isn't just normal metal. It is malleable to the extent of perfect creation. It is strong, resistant to high heat, and can make the sharpest of blades."

"Whatever. Just don't leave your toys around for Caesar. If he gets a hold of this tech, I don't think I can beat him." Lynd chuckled.

"In any case, this tech is really interesting. It seems my wife's Path was proven to be correct. Joining this mission will allow me to perfect and strengthen the power that the Progenitor saw in the future." Lynd smiled and took out a small round ball.

It was one of the strongest weapons to be produced by the Unlocked Army. The cost of creating was so high. It had successfully harnessed the cells of various Unlocks and was now capable of being activated by Lynd. Lynd's copy was so precise that with just a few alterations, these cells of other Unlocked were 'fooled' into thinking that the one commanding them was the actual Path user.

Lightning and fire began to burst forth from the small round ball.

The small round ball exploded, and various pieces began to gather, forming wheels that were rotating within each other.

"As for the appearance of the wheels and their construction: their appearance was like the gleaming of beryl. And the four had the same likeness, their appearance and construction being as it were a wheel within a wheel. When they went, they went in any of their four directions without turning as they went. And their rims were tall and awesome, and the rims of all four were full of eyes all around. And when the living creatures went, the wheels went beside them; and when the living creatures rose from the earth, the wheels rose. Wherever the spirit wanted to go, they went, and the wheels rose along with them, for the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels. When those went, these went; and when those stood, these stood; and when those rose from the earth, the wheels rose along with them, for the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels." Lynd began to read out a verse in the Bible.

"It's not quite there yet as I only managed to create the wheel within a wheel and its appearance of gleaming beryl." Lynd chuckled.

The elements were bursting out and what was shocking was that the three Pioneers could see the creation of elements from nothing!

"Dimensional Upholding... Dimensional Purging... Dimensional Transcendence... The three steps that we need to climb to be a Prime. You fancy yourself a Principal, for you have managed to imitate the power of a Principal in a Presider? Well, how's, is this? This is pure creation!" Lynd laughed as he lied and planted the seed to deceive Lanterk.

"Let's get this on! Let's see if your powers to mold and shape the universe can match my ability to create it?! Can your metal really resist my heat?!"

BOOM!

The power of the elements grew strong as Lightning, Desolation, Heat and Light all combined into the small core.

A heat that surpassed the limits of the metal's resistance appeared. A small sun was formed.

By combining the Path of Lennox, Meng, Meryl, and that of the Dalisay family, Lynd was able to create a powerful Light.

It was a light that purged, a fire that consumed and refined. Even the elements before it began to melt.

"Shekinah!" Lynd shouted as the bright light erupted out.

The metal around the space itself began to melt as its liquid form was being consumed.

"Gather the metal!" One of the Pioneers ordered as the liquid metal morphed around them.

"Let's see you fight! Do you think you're a star? Do you think you are the sun? You'll burn out, and our metal will endure!" The other laughed as the entire room began to pour out metal around them and created a thick armor.

The two charged towards each other, and the cataclysmic battle began.
