The Martial Unity

Chapter 3076: Malevolent Ultimatum

Its masculine voice was electronically distorted, as though it had mechanized its voice box with a technological replacement.

The Martial Sages grew confused at its words.

The tekvore shifted its head with an almost humanoid troubled expression, as if it hadn’t expected a language barrier to impede communication.

Then it raised a hand, earning alarm from the Martial Sages.

BZZT

From its silver skin, an image was projected midair.

A static two-dimensional hologram.

An image of the tekvore who had attacked the Esocline Federation previously.

What it was trying to communicate was clear.

Bodhisattva Maitreyi activated a breathing technique as she used heaven bending to manipulate light, as well as its color and polarity, to conjure an image midair.

Considering that none of her Realms of power were even active, it was an exquisite display of mastery of light.

It featured a simplistic image of the tekvore in question behind bars in a cage.

Indicating that it was a prisoner of war.

The tekvore, some distance away from her, sharpened his silver cybernetic eyes before displaying another image.

An image of the cage opening and the imprisoned tekvore returning to them and the other…

The other image was one of the subjugation and conquering of the Esocline Federation by the Imperial Tekvorian Federation, displaying the Martial Sages kneeling before the tekvores with the flag of the Imperial Tekvorian Federation sitting above the nation.

The Martial Sages gritted their teeth as they clenched their fists.

And yet, the tekvore wasn’t done.

It raised another hand, displaying another image.

An image of pure destruction.

A detailed montage of how they would raze everything in sight.

Every structure the Esocline Federation ever built.

Every human being hiding within its walls.

Every warrior who sought to protect it.

All of them would be annihilated.

The perilous malice within its eyes returned as the two images floated above its two hands.

What it was trying to communicate was clear.

It was an ultimatum.

They had two options.

To return their prisoner of war to the tekvores and willingly submit to their domination, allowing them to survive and exist.

Or to face absolute destruction at the hands of the Imperial Tekvorian Federation.

The air tingled with chilling tension.

The atmosphere crackled electrically.

The Martial Sages took their stances as their Realms of power burst with life as they gritted their teeth with hostile severity.

And yet, Bodhisattva Maitreyi simply closed her eyes.

“I was a fool to think that there was any hope of peace.”

BADUMP!!!

Her Martial Heart was nothing short of a beacon of power as her Martial Mind and Soul surged with boundless power. The tekvores widened their eyes with surprise as they watched the very fundamental existence of their enemies’ being shift as the Boundless Light became exactly what she was known for.

Boundless light.

RUMBLE!!!

The world shook as her light dispelled the darkness of night across the entire ocean. It shook as their Martial Embodiments consumed heaven and earth, painting itself across the canvas of the world.

Their tolerance for the presence of the tekvores had come to an end with a single command from Bodhisattva Maitreyi.

“Attack.”

“ATTACK!!!” the Martial Sages and Martial Masters alike roared with power as they surged forth, charging their opponents with great speed and momentum towards their enemies, trying to drag them as far as possible from the Esocline Federation.

BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!!!

A myriad of attacks from a myriad of high principles including all four fundamental forces of the universe and all conventional forms of energy and even the very fabric of space and time clashed with potent technological systems based on the same principles.

BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!!!

The battle between the sixty Martial Sages and the twenty leading tekvores was the most intense conflict, quaking heaven and earth with the sheer intensity of their power.

RUMBLE!!!!!

The world shook as the Martial Sages relied on their greater numbers to drag the battle and their enemies away from the Esocline Federation while unleashing all their power upon their enemies.

The hundreds of Martial Masters and Martial Seniors of the Esocline Federation and the Kandrian Empire combined charged the remaining lesser tekvores as the battle divided into two belts, with the Sage-level belt pushed further and further away from the Esocline Federation.

BOOOOM BOOOOM BOOOOM!!!!!

The very fabric of heaven and earth quaked as countless individual battles ensued.

And yet, one ugly, unpleasant truth became very clear almost immediately.

The tekvores were stronger than Martial Sages.

Despite being outnumbered one to three, they held their own against their Martial Sage equivalents.

BOOOOM BOOOOM BOOOOM!!!!!

Kane gritted his teeth as he surged through the air with extraordinary speed, pushing himself to the very limit as he evaded a maelstrom of positron rays, comprised of charged antimatter that annihilated everything that it touched.

The sheer agility and velocities he moved should have been enough to confound many Martial Sages in their attempts to tag him, it wasn’t enough to prevent a tekvore from catching up to him.

WHOOSH

His eyes widened with shock as a tekvore almost teleported before him with the sheer speed at which it appeared before him, threatening to annihilate him where he stood.

“Omni-Heaven Rend.”

BOOOOM!!!

The tekvore’s eyes widened as a powerful convergence of heaven-bending emerged from Sage Sekiei, blasting the feminine tekvore with great power and momentum.

And yet, she was entirely unharmed.

Entirely unharmed despite taking a powerful grade-ten Sage-level attack with zero preparation or active defenses.

Her flesh was comprised of a stunningly elastic crystalline structure that was comprised of what were known as high-entropy alloys atop a device that deployed pulsating magnetic fields to create a phenomenon known as giant magneto-superelasticity in a technological system known as electromagnetic superelastic defense plating system, that allowed her to effortlessly withstand the full power of a Martial Sage without a scratch despite having no esoteric substances.

Her crystlline cybernetic eyes shifted towards Sage Sekiei as she unleashed a positron canon of unfathomable and extraordinary power, moving at relativistic speeds, threatening to destroy Sage Sekiei where he stood.

BOOOOOM!!!!!
