Endless Journey: Infinite Realms

Chapter 468 Time is Life, literally

"Tell me Alex. What idea do you still have that can salvage our situation?" When the amount of the Conqueror’s Aura left was only enough to last them for 30 more seconds, Golden Alex, who was painfully quiet during Alex’s control of his body, could not help but give this outburst towards Alex.

"Do you understand our situation here? There’s still 17 minutes 30 seconds left before Sierra’s possession succeeds, and there’s only 9 minutes 30 seconds left before Emperor Litch arrives! Not only that, but Blue Alex and our allies are about to be overwhelmed by the enemies too!" Golden Alex continued to shout inwardly as Alex let out his own sigh. "Don’t you sigh on me, original Alex. You said that you’re waiting for help, right? Then where is that help now? I thought you said that Officer Emerald will be going here to help you? Where is that woman then?"

"Officer Emerald... had already descended on this planet. But instead of going here, she went to the Institute. It seems like she decided to check on their spy first before coming here." Alex said wryly as he ignored Golden Alex’s piercing tone. "White Alex and Professor Frances was already alerted of her arrival, although Professor Frances has detected them too..."

"So your ’helper’ is now busy talking with White Alex? Hmph, seems like we have a lot of rotten luck here." Golden Alex said, with his tone now sounding a little desperate. "So what now? Still have anything special that you can use to save your asses here?

"Of course I still have one. But this is something that I have decided to use only if things are already hopeless and if there’s nothing else that we can do." Alex replied as he shook his head in amusement. "Because if I use this thing in the wrong time and place, then all of us will be instantly f***ed. Like, literally f**ked by fate."

Something about Alex’s tone and words must have triggered something in Golden Alex’s memories, as only after a few seconds of silence, Golden Alex began to shake as if he had realized what Alex was actually trying to say.

"You... are you telling me that you will attempt to perform a Power Synthesis with your Companions?" Golden Alex said as he did his best to stop himself from shaking. "Is that what you have been planning since earlier?"

"Hehehe, so you already discovered my secret plan. That’s right. I have been planning to use Power Synthesis to deal with everything in one fell swoop." Alex replied merrily, even with his body still under Ray’s siege. "I will use Power Synthesis to defeat Ray, and I will also use it to deal with all the enemies that are trying to kill us now. I will also use it to destroy Emperor Litch once he arrives!"

"Alex! Do you know what you are talking about? Power Synthesis is not something that you cannot lightly use! It has time limi-"

"I know about the f**king time limit. I already experienced it before, ok?" Alex said, cutting off Golden Alex’s complaint. "What? Do you want me to explain it to you again?"

"No, there is no need for-"

"Good. Then that will save us a lot of time here." Alex replied numbly. "Since you already know what I plan to do, then you should just watch me and my Companions do our work..."

[[[Author’s Note: Read Chapter 49 to refresh your mind about Power Synthesis. All the explanations are there, so just look at it!]]]

"Work your ass! Power Synthesis can only last for 10 minutes, and the powers that you can only fuse with your companions are those with the same origin! How the hell are you going to make that work?" Golden Alex shouted out as he cringed from Alex’s words.

" Original Alex, if you perform a Power Synthesis right now, you can surely defeat Ray, the other Supreme Puppets, and our other enemies. But what happens after that? There’s only 9 minutes left before Emperor LItch arrives, which means that if you start the power Synthesis right now, you will only have 1 minute of time left to deal with the Emperor!" Golden Alex said, rushing his words to the point that they almost sounded like hisses to Alex.

[[[Author’s note: 10 minutes-9 minutes = 1 remaining minute]]]

"Do you think 1 minute is enough to beat him? Oh, and you should also remember that you will be paralyzed for a long time once your usage time for the Power Synthesis is up! Do you think you can finish the Main Mission with that kind of paralysis? No, just like what you said earlier, you will be f**ked by fate!"

"..."

Golden Alex looked like he wanted to say more about the Power Synthesis, but the severe deficiency of the Conqueror’s Aura made it harder for him to think already.

"..."

Alex took this chance to state his point, and he certainly did not hold back at all.

"....I know that using Power Synthesis should be something that I will use as a last resort. After all, the consequence of using it will be bad if we use it wrongly. However, do you really think that I will be scared of using this ability just because of its effects? So what if I can only use Power Synthesis for 10 minutes? So what if we will be paralyzed later? If this is the consequence that I have to get in order to win, then I will be happy to accept it!"

"But-"

"I don’t care if our current state is forcing me to make a bad decision. Do you really think I am an idiot to just use Power Synthesis wantonly? Hmph, since our situation is unfavorable for the usage of Power Synthesis, then I will just change it to become favorable for us!" Alex declared these words with so much smugness, that he appeared to be unworried, even when he had just used up the second to the last portion of his Conqueror’s aura. "I am an Emperor too, so making things favorable is my f**king forte!"

"!!!"

"Lingo, Peina, and you angel woman. I don’t care if you are weakened or scared of Ray. I want you to do everything that you can to distract him once my power runs out. Do what you want to do, as long as you can delay him for at least 1 minute." Alex mentally sent this message to the three Divine Beings, who were closely following the battle between Alex and Ray.

These three did not participate or help Alex out since earlier, something that Alex had actually instructed to them.

"I prevented you from helping me out, since I knew that you three will be useful here." Alex said as his body flew forward. "Now, go and show me your eagerness to be saved! You want to kill Emperor LItch, right? If you want that to happen, then make sure that I will be alive for as long as possible! Go and use those bodies of yours to extend my time! The longer that you can delay him, the better!"

"!!!" Upon hearing these words, the three Divine Beings only hesitated for a second before they flew straight towards Ray.

Their bodies, which had been atrophied from years of abuse and neglect on their imprisonment, let out multiple crunching sounds as they began to explode with power.

Their fragile frame had returned to their peak states as luster returned on their faces and skin.

Their previously hollowed faces became valiant once more, showcasing their expression of hatred and hope.

"Hong long long long~"

Waves of materialized power filled the whole area as the three Divine Beings did not hold back anything at all.

"Shua!"

Millions of Symbols glittered all around Lingo as his body bounded towards Ray, with each symbol pulsing with murderous intent.

Each symbol appeared to have their own unique and powerful effects, which makes their combinations highly unstable and dangerous.

But even with this possible dangers, Lingo have no qualms on using all of them together in one attack, which he sent sailing towards the Supreme Puppet Ray.

"Skree!"

Peina on the other hand did not summon anything otherworldy. Instead, his body morphed, creating a chimeraic creature that was even larger than Queen Mother’s Tree Form.

This creature, which had dragon for a head, limbs made up of countless demons, torso of a roc, and the tail of a serpent, released a blood-curdling cry that shook the whlel Four Moons World.

"Skree!!!"

The shakings of the Four Moons World only increased when this creature let out a demon-filled, world-breaking punch towards Ray.

"Boom!"

The angel did not waste her time too as she summoned millions of constellations behind her. Each constellation could be heard singing hymns of praises towards the Holy Order, making the angel appear more venerate compared to before.

These constellations then fused altogether to create a gigantic, golden flaming sword.

"Houm...."

The angel grabbed this golden sword with her left hand, holding it in a manner similar to that of mother holding her baby. This scene looked so peaceful and soothing to anyone who saw it, that even Alex was momentarily entranced by it.

"Horaa!!!!"

This peaceful feeling however quickly changed when the angel let out a blood-curdling war cry. She then flew towards Ray, swinging her sword in an obvious attempt to kill him.

All the attacks by these three Divine Beings only happened within a second, which was just enough to prevent Alex from using his last portion of the Conqueror’s Aura.

Obviously, Alex used this opportunity to fly away from Ray, who was now under the pressure from three attacks that appeared to be just as strong as his bombs earlier.

"I don’t know how long these Divine Beings can keep up their current state. After all, I can feel that they are burning their own lifespan just to reach this level of power!" Alex thought to himself as he ignored the feeling of the air striking on his skin. He appeared to be both relieved and worried at the same time, a feeling that Golden Alex also shared with him.

"Hehehe, now, this battle will only depend on how long the Divine Beings can last. If they last long enough, then victory will be in my hands. But if they fall short, then I guess it will be another improvisation time for me..."
