The world in front of Null's bionic eyes seemed to come to a stop when Morpheus did nothing short of teleportation and arrived beside the robot.
His palm moved swiftly, like the judgement of the Death God.
*RUMBBLEE!!!!**
*BOOOOOMMMMMM!!!*
Sparks flew through the entire place, releasing a blinding light.
Morpheus' palm that shone with white lightning, stopped right when it clashed against the robot's forcefield.
"I have seen your movements,
It had a lot of difficulties locking its senses over that black darkness mantle that seemed to be sucking light itself.
"You have seen me? SO WHAT?!"
*BAANGG!!!*
Still, with his palm clashing against the forcefield, Morpheus leg clashed against the tungstenX ground flashing in reckless white lightning, the ground became his loyal tool and resurfaced like a dense liquid, maintaining his two legs in place.
*BOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMM!!!!!--
With enough grip, the robot's entire body started to be pushed back!
Seeing that it was losing the encounter, the wisdom king, using his 'wisdom' took the most effective decision.
[Deploy Reinforcements, 3rd-Degree Threat, Extermination Protocol!]
He didn't have enough time to take his next action, because his body got mercilessly blasted the moment it lost its grip to the ground!
*BOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMM!!!!-----------------------
"Hmph, that forcefield is quite strong, Null, do what you must, I'll take care of this fellow..." Morpheus' hand shone with his Seraphin holy attribute, just now he had tried to pierce that turtle-like shield to 'transmutate' the robot... but failed, at least with his holy attribute, whether it would be the same with light or lightning magic, it's still questionable.
"I understand, be careful, it's not just that armour, he's an AI capable of comprehending patterns and formations at maximum speeds, the least of your cards you use against him, the better... he will adapt to them at a speed that's difficult to match!" Null prepared to invade the facility with her remaining 18 corps, it would be difficult to raid the entire thing by themselves, but just having him fend off the Wisdom King is more than enough.
"Do you have any contact with the city? Sarah and Rachel?" He asked as she usually has eyes 'everywhere'...
"No... my connection to the metropolitan network is being hindered, why?"
"Forget it... I'll catch up to you soon."
"..."
*FIUSSSSH!!!!*
As Null and her corps were about to invade the facility, yet another beam of crimson light came from the skies, trying to stop them.
*BOOOOOOOMMMMMMmm!!!-----------
But the beam clashed against' Morpheus' mass of tungsten.
Several ships started to materialise in the distance, clearly... this robot is going all out.
But still, there was something that he needed to do.
Using the last mana he had, he chanted a spell that would help ease his worries a little.
*WOOSHH!*
As fast as lightning, a shining figure manifested as if coming out of his body.
'Take care of Sarah and Rachel until I come back...'
*FIIUSSH!!*
Having taken the order of its lord, the elemental flew through the skies as a blurry shining light, at speeds the Wisdom King's senses were unable to catch up to!
...
With his worries eased, Morpheus glared at the fleet of ships and the robot that floats he could see how they prepared their missiles, cannons, drones... there were dozens of such ships.
"You're a bigger threat than I expected, singularity... I will erase you today"
...
Without further ado or even waiting for an answer, the Wisdom King commenced his onslaught merciless onslaught.
*FIIIUSSSSHHH!!*
*FIIIUSSSSHHH!!*
*FIIIUSSSSHHH!!*
From the dozens of so ships, missiles after missiles came in a barrage of never-ending burst, intending to utterly decimate the target.
Morpheus smirked and the mass of transmutated tungsten covered his body in a sphere.
*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMm!!!!!!--------
The chain of explosions resonated through the entire evacuated city, but the Magic God is not one to stay quiet.
With the Tungsten sphere covering his body, his objective was one, he's adamant in breaking that barrier!
"You're not getting away this time!~" Disregarding the earth-shaking explosions happening in the form of chain reactions behind him, Morpheus controlled the mass of tungsten with splendour.
It once again morphed like a floating river, leaving his body and encasing the robot's!
*BOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMmmm!!!!!!------------
He clenched his palm and the sphere of tungsten started to compress!
"Let's see how you get away from this, 'Wisdom King'..." He chuckled and kept clenching his hand while his six wings took covered his body from the explosions.
He pointed his other hand towards the dozens of ships, and a bright beam filled with holy energy seamlessly shot from his palm, not making any noise, like light itself!
*FIIIUUSSH!!*
Still, the beam didn't impact the ships straight away, they too had this strong forcefield with the shape of a turtle shell protecting them from every harm.
*CLACK!!*
As if a breaking glass, the ridiculous pressure coming from all the sides wasn't something that the plasma sphere covering the robot could resist.
*BOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!--------------
The moment the barrier broke, the mass of goo contracted a crushed the robot into less than dust quickly becoming one with it.
"So much for a 'Wisdom King'. Hmnn... this is a rather great material... it's more durable than the 'tungsten' and it seems to be composed with an architecture that resembles a highly pressurised diamond... a revolutionary carbon allotropic figure, amazing... I'll call it, Morphonus..."
Copyrights were inflicted that day.
While the explosions kept ragging around his figure, he analysed the material that had composed the external armour of the robot that he just erased from existence.
White sparks of lightning flashed within his palm as the mass of tungsten changed in colour, becoming darker as the material's entire properties changed into that of this 'Morphonus'.
"Let's test it~"
The God lifted up his arm and the mass of morphonus, and it took shape becoming something that could only resemble a massive arrow.
The arrow then shot like a missile against one of the firing ships, and as if the strongest lance met the strongest shield a dance of sparks and lights took place before the forcefield eventually crumbled!
*FIIIUSSSHHH!!!*
*BAAAANGGGGG!!!*
The ship got thoroughly impaled as it seemingly imploded.
"Indeed, it's extremely more efficient than the 'TungstenX' this is too easy..." He moved two of his fingers to the right and the mass of Morpheus once again transformed into an arrow that shot towards the next ship!

A few kilometres away, the mothership could be seen floating above a small hill, deploying dozens of ships, just like the one Morpheus just destroyed...

*FIIIUSSSHH!!!*
Together with the dozens of ships that were already being deployed, now, several dozens of armours similar to the previous ones shot through the skies, way faster than before, with lighter armour, faster propulsion and vision capable of detecting the void.
The Wisdom King... is learning.

While Morpheus continued the party outside, Null together with her eighteen infantry units stepped inside the facility, intending to locate the data centre.
Shots rang through the corridors, she ran and engaged the units in hand-to-hand combat while her units covered.
*BAANGGG!!*
After inserting her plasma dagger inside one of the units' cores, she kicked it, promoting it to blast against another three ones behind.
With the scheme of the facility going through her head, she moved to the next intersection.
'With the Wisdom King already here,
'What are our odds against
'Without network connection to the main hub in Manchester... 50%'
'It's high enough... and what are his odds of defeating
'... our core is acting oddly, V2|N.'
'Our core is fine... what are his odds?'
'With what we have witnessed so far, more than 40%... perhaps even 50%'
'Just that much?' She stopped in the middle of the corridor for a few seconds, her expression beneath the mask, unknown.
'His true capacities are unknown to us... but we're completely aware of the deterrent that the
'... He's going to do fine... I know.' She assured herself, he managed to resist a single blast from
'How do you know, V2|N?'
'He's a God...' That's what he said, and she... believes... it?
'God is an irregularity, it doesn't exist...'
'...'
*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!-------------
!!!
An explosion took place outside, so big in fact that the entire building shook!
'He's going to be fine...' She convinced herself, a machine doesn't know about faith... just about results, and to her... he will be fine.
