Chapter 1835 Switching Sides!

Still, the leaders had not an ounce of relief in their visage. From the very start, all they had been doing was being on the defense, reacting, instead of proactively attacking.

Even when they stole a chance to attack, it merely reduced the size of the dark creatures by 10% more or less.

This made them understand that it was going to take a long while before they could touch Apollo...He wasn\'t going to sit by and watch.

\'It\'s a done deal, he can\'t be dealt with without the stone of reality.\' Xylos narrowed his eyes sinisterly, \'It\'s time to choose a better future.\'

As the leaders focused on the battle at hand, seemingly still holding onto some hope, Xylos quietly withdrew to a secluded spot.

His calculating eyes scanned the battlefield before giving out a command devoid of emotions emotion, \'It\'s time.\'

In an instant, the demeanor of Chaosians shifted, moving through the allied ranks like vengeful wraiths!

BOOM! Slice! BOOM!!...

The darkness still prevailed, giving them perfect camouflage to backstab their allies, slicing and dicing anyone in sight with their chaotic blades!

Quantix Prime and Timeon were among the first to realize the betrayal, always having some of their senses on the Chaosians!

"Ambush! Rear guard!" He bellowed, trying to reorganize his forces to face the Chaosians\' betrayal.

His troops immediately adjusted to the ambush and started their counter-attack. Even without Quantix Prime saying anything, not a single Vibronoxian would trust and be comfortable near a Chaosian.

"XYLOS! YOU DUMB BASTARD!" Neutrino Flux cursed hatefully, "HE WON\'T ACCEPT YOU IN HIS SIDE EVEN IF YOU TURNED ON US!"

"I would rather take my chances than wait until the day my nation gets picked up," Xylos replied, unbothered...His eyes affixed on the monstrous crimson eyes, seemingly seeking Apollo\'s approval.

Apollo said nothing, but a wide sinister smile extended on the monster\'s face, making him realize he had given him his blessings.

This made Xylos double down on his efforts to eliminate as many of the Allied troops as possible.

"Remove the dimensional pocket! Retreat!" Quantix Prime ordered loudly as he fought off against the nearby Chaosians.

The chaos sown by Xylos\'s betrayal made any coordinated defense nearly impossible, which implied one thing...The war here was done!

The Planktons followed orders and canceled the dimensional pocket, freeing everyone back to the quantum realm. Then, they didn\'t hesitate to ditch the alliance and be the first to dip, taking away their closest allies with them.

It might have not been said, but all nation leaders knew that from this moment onward, everyone was on their own!

The Vibronixans and Chronowalkers joined together and retreated while watching each other\'s backs from the Chaosians and dark creatures.

Fortunately, they were powerful enough to intimidate the Chaosians, forcing them to focus on other nations under Xylos\' orders.

"Savee meee!"..."Noooo!!"...."Arghhhh!!"...

After they retreated to a decent distance, Quantix Prime and Timeon sent their senses back to the battlefield just to hear pained screams and despairing yells.

Most of the troops were still caught in the darkness unable to even see their own own hands, don\'t mention a retreat path.

Hence, the instant those with vision made a run for it, they were sentenced to death...

"Whoever survives, survives." Quantix Prime turned around with a cold expression, "Let\'s go, we need to reinforce our territories. I am almost certain my empire is his first target."

"Hmm? How can you be sure?" Timeon raised an eyebrow.

"I have a hunch that he searching for the same object or person those three foreigners are looking for."

Quantix Prime replied, his mind linking the dots of Apollo\'s relation to the foreigners after hearing from Dankin that he might be connected to one of the two foreigners, who joined Commander Bia\'s side.

It was too farfetched for everything to be a mere coincidence.

...

Sometime later...

As the dust settled on the devastated battlefield, Xylos and his elite troops assembled right underneath the gigantic monster.

Most troops remained behind and ended up consumed as food while the rest who made it out, never turned back again.

They left the ruins entirely, heading back to turtle inside their territories and praying to not get picked by Apollo.

The Chaosians were the only ones left behind and it was genuinely a bold move by Xylos.

Soon enough, Apollo emerged from within the monster and descended with a measured pace until he was a mere meter above them.

Xylos stepped forward, bowing his head in respect.

"The King of Darkness," He disclosed with a solemn tone, "Your strength is undeniable. My apologies for taking me so long to realize that only you can unite the quantum realm and rule over it."

He paused for a moment as he glanced at Apollo\'s expressionless face.

When he couldn\'t read him, he continued, "The Chaosian Empire wishes to offer our services to you. Our loyalty, from this day forth, is yours to command."

While it might seem like this came out of nowhere, in reality, Xylos had long been thinking about switching sides after the latest conquest.

Apollo made everyone realize that it was simply hopeless to stop his conquest and the only solutions were either immigration or death.

Xylos thought further and realized he could always join his side, which would help him secure more territory in the quantum realm after getting rid of other nations.

As for being forced to be under him, he wasn\'t too bothered with it when he knew that he was unkillable.

So, the instant he realized that locating the stone of reality was a mere fantasy, he pretty much made up his mind to backstab the natives.

Apollo seemed to have figured those things too by merely reading Xylos and his troops\' expressions.

After a moment, a slow smile spread across his face, a sign that he was pleased with the proposition.

"Xylos, your reputation sure precedes you. Cunning, ruthless, and always on the side of the victor."

"Of course." Xylos cracked a smile at last, sighing in relief internally, "Survival is for the fittest in this merciless realm."

"You are a smart cookie." Apollo smiled coldly, "But, have no delusions, this isn\'t a partnership, you lot are nothing but mere followers, including you."

"Yes, Yes, and we gladly take on the role." Xylos knelt immediately and gestured for the rest of his forces to do the same. Then, he lifted his head and voiced with a stern tone, "Your wishes are our commands."

"If that\'s so, then search this whole place for spherical objects." Apollo voiced his order immediately, uncaring about chasing the escaping troops.

All he cared about was finding Felix at the instant and if it wasn\'t for knowing that having extra hands was always good, he wouldn\'t have bothered to entertain Xylos.

"A spherical object?" Xylos suddenly frowned, "Is it small? The size of a fist? And shimmering with a peculiar aura?"

"Yes, have you seen it?" Apollo\'s pupils thinned in focus.

"We were battling to retrieve an artifact like that some time ago. But, it was picked by a foreigner with powers to control trees." Xylos reported about Artemis\' incident, calculating that he was talking about Ares\' core.

When he described the core to him, Apollo realized that it belonged to Ares instead of Felix, which dampened his mood a little. Still, this gave him a big hint on what to do next.

\'If Ares has died, it means the other bastard has perished too.\' Apollo narrowed his eyes coldly.

"What else do you know?" He asked.

While he had his eyes and ears in the quantum realm, none of them were strong enough to reach the ruins in one piece, which meant, his information was limited inside the empires.

Xylos went on and narrated Athena, Artemis, and Aeolus\'s battle against the Vibronoxian, and how they were seen in their empire, seemingly searching for something.

As an emperor of the Chaosians, he had his own source of Intel.

"Is that so?" Apollo suddenly smiled coldly, "Change of plans, we are heading straight to the Vibronoxian Empire."
