Chapter 410 - Yet Once More

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

A few moments before Shakstress appeared and was about to kill Octarion...

Richie had a body full of holes now. Richie could do very little to defend himself.

It was like he was being placed in a body that he didn't own. His movements were strange, space itself was acting and moving towards and away from him, causing him to slip up, and his powers and abilities were also expanding out wildly.

Sound and motion were changing in the warped minuscule world that he was in.

"Keep at it! He's dying!"

The Supreme Exoskeletons continued its barrage of bullets. Richie improved his defenses and blocked the attacks for a time, but then the strange world began to alter its laws once more.

BANG! BANG! BANG!

Richie was now focusing all of his energy on protecting his head and heart. The scope of the area that he could use his power to protect himself only encompassed the size of his head. Richie was focusing all energy on those locations to prevent death.

Even his ability to control the flow and movement of blood was not possible in this realm.

The Exoskeletons were moving closer and closer and were drawing closer to the point of Shakstress's detailed plan where they could switch into the more potent weapons in their arsenal.

By weakening Richie and moving closer, they could finally shoot Richie at closer range. By dragging out the battle, Richie would be too weak to go on the offensive, and they could move closer for the kill.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The group reached closer, switching from normal bullets to the much slower but dreadful explosive rounds.

Richie curled himself up to a ball but even then had a hard time doing so. Luckily, he managed right before the explosive rounds reached him, and he enveloped himself with sound armor.

"What an amazing enemy I have. I guess surviving a fight against Presiders isn't so easy for people like us..." Richie laughed. He managed to defend himself, but he could sense that the sound he was emitting was constantly being siphoned away by a strange law in this world.

But Richie remained calm. He had already thought of a way to destroy everything.

"They said that the dimensional techs that are needed to master the Void Assassin's ability of teleportation fully requires us to have the techs or the Paths that can keep that realm stable, consistent, and immutable. But this Presider is intentionally altering the laws and form of this Minuscule world. Which means... this place is fragile." Richie thought to himself.

"Then I shall shake this world." Richie smiled.

Of all the Overcomers, Richie was the first to become a Believer.

In the new world of Seeker, the classification of the group of people called 'Believers' became an outdated class. Seeker had realized that the Believer groups of Meryl and Lynd only became so because of his Path as the one who treaded on the Ancient's Path.

But Richie decided that it wasn't a wasted cause.

His Path was guided into believing from his talks with Pastor Eagle, and even the suggestion Arthur gave about how God created the world with the Spoken Word.

And this became Richie's Faith.

In that strange space, with three supreme exoskeletons shooting at him, and as each bullet fired brought Richie closer to death, Richie recited a verse.

"Hebrews 12:26-29...." Richie began.

"At that time, his voice shook the earth, but now he has promised, 'Yet once more I will shake not only the earth but also the heavens.' This phrase, 'Yet once more,' indicates the removal of things that are shaken—that is, things that have been made—in order that the things that cannot be shaken may remain. Therefore let us be grateful for receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, and thus let us offer to God acceptable worship, with reverence and awe, for our God is a consuming fire."

Richie recited it and became all the more convinced of his faith. Then, as he witnessed the Minuscule World and saw the many facets of the dimensions, he came to a newfangled conclusion.

"Eternity is possible..." Richie whispered.

He had seen a whole new concept of reality where physics was so outdated it could not even explain even half of the rules in this world. And the rules kept changing.

"Gravity, Movement, Inertia, Mass, Velocity, Force.... All of those rules of physics. It doesn't work here. Entropy, Heat, Time, Distance... What else is different here? Does it mean that the rules I grew up to believe were constant, are very easily changed?" Richie laughed.

And the verse he recited strengthen his faith all the more.

"For God will not just shake the earth... But the heavens? So all of this? Even this strange realm is but temporal things? But a new dimension, an immutable, unshakable dimension, will soon arrive? Is that the new heaven? Is that the new earth? Is it something so mind-boggling that with the new rules created in that dimension, it can achieve eternity?" Richie guessed.

"Oh well... That's too far off when the Good Lord comes. For now... I shall be a voice that shall cry out. I shall be that voice that will alert those who call themselves gods and make worlds such as these. These shakable worlds will be brought down, and all that will remain are those that can stand for eternity!"

Tremendous energy began to build up. A shaking occurred as Richie's sound vibrated out. It started with the area directly in front of him, but the vibration continued to expand more and more.

The vibration intensified, and it spread out all over the place. The intense vibration began to alter the Minuscule world. Shakstress was too preoccupied with the many troubles that were happening that she had no time or energy to spare in checking on this world. She also believed that Richie was good as dead in this world as she estimated that only those with a Nefilus Suit could survive.

The sound began to spread out and create powerful vibrations. This space was not stable as even Shakstress could not perfect stabilizing this world.

"What's happening?!" So the Supreme Exoskeletons were close to Richie, that they immediately felt the strange fluctuation. Their suit was always a step ahead of the changing laws of this realm. Shakstress has already fixed how the domain would change and programmed how these suits could still be controlled as if the pilots were just in the real world.

But now, the changing and collapsing laws caused them to fly and move erratically.

The three were in a state of panic. They tried contacting Presider Shakstress, but their attempts were futile. The new laws in this world had changed that their suits cannot communicate with Shakstress.

"Help! Presider! Save us!"

"Oh? Is that fear I hear? Too bad. You thought yourselves to be like gods, but like men, you shall fall." Richie taunted as his powers erupted out.

The entire minuscule world began to shake.

"Too bad I'm not strong enough to shake the real world. But this tribulation that nearly killed me became a good way to train me. I can now slowly train to improve my powers to the point that it could shake the real dimensions." Richie laughed.

"They set a net for my steps; my soul was bowed down. They dug a pit in my way, but they have fallen into it themselves. Arise, O Lord! Shake the heavens! Yet Once More!" Richie roared, and the entire Minuscule World trembled and collapsed in itself.

"AHHHH!" The three Exoskeleton pilots cried out as a strange vibration penetrated through their armor.

CRACK! CRACK! CRACK!

Cracks began to appear everywhere, and wherever the cracks appeared, the space began to expand and enlarge.

The entire world was slowly reverting to its original size, and Richie soon found himself standing up in the same area where he originally stood up.

A strange shockwave threw all of the soldiers in the area as the space suddenly returned to its normal form.

Three Exoskeletons crashed down on the floor as they reverted to their normal size. The destruction of that realm meant the destruction of their suits, which was the source of that realm.

Cracks and holes appeared, and blood was seeping out.

Richie glanced and saw many enemies standing up and showed their intent to kill Richie.

"Sammy."

BOOM! BOOM!

Several powerful sound explosions occurred and blew the enemies from their place.

"You're too tired to fight?" Sammy asked as he appeared on the side. He had used various weapons and his sound to disarm and kill the enemy.

"No. It's just that the moment I got here, I could sense that Presider was moving. So I need all the stamina I have."

"Richie." Arthur's voice suddenly echoed out.

Two Exoskeletons arrived. One of the pilots ejected out of his suit.

It was Chase Brender.

"Wear the Exoskeleton of Chase and go and help Octarion. The Carleans were able to steal one of the healing drugs in here. It's not enough, but it should stabilize your condition for the next fight."

Chase handed over a vial of red liquid, which Richie immediately drank.

Richie then moved and piloted the exoskeleton.

The exoskeleton had gaps and holes near the mouth that allowed Richie's voice to move unhindered.

Richie immediately flew and sensed the tremors of Shasktress's attacks on Octarion.

"Hey, Ceasar. Need a hand?" Richie asked.

Octarion was standing in front of Shakstress, and his expression did not change as he heard Richie.

"Are you going to tell me?" Shakstress asked Octarion again. His shield intrigued her.

"I will graciously answer your question, madam. This shield can resist another blow." Octarion answered without fear.

"This shield? That doesn't look like the same one. Oh, I see... Transference Technology. I recall that the Zulu family has reached greater progress in Transference technology that these Earthlings call Voodoo. Is it something related to you, Lost Primordial? You must have three shields prepared for that. I attack that shield, but whatever damage is happening there is being transferred to that other shield. Oh well... I guess I just need... What?!"

A strange tremor occurred out all over the ship.

Richie had confirmed that there was something strange in this real world. He had felt that there was something off. Arthur told Richie of his calculation as to the events and what was happening outside of the ship.

"Octarion. Get ready to run. I'll be shaking this world once more!" Richie had a very delightful sneer.

"So you shrunk this entire ship and not the space around it?" Richie shouted, and Shakstress heard him.

"Although I can't bring down your ship with the shakable form of this shrunk ship, it should allow those other Presiders to attack you, right?" Richie laughed as a powerful vibration began to occur all over the ship.

"That Sound user is alive?!" Shasktress exclaimed, and she quickly used accessed the many techs in her suit to stabilize the ship. But it was too late.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Various attacks began to occur as the attacks of Pridgeon, Andronze, and the WGP's water monster began to hit Shasktress's ship.
