Alex listened to what SCP-6000-A had said, as she than spoke out to him.

"Don't you remember what you had done within one of the Earths you had visited, one where you had absorbed your counterpart?"

Alex looked down at the ground, as he thought of what she has said to him.

"Yeah...I...I did do that. But...hue why are you asking me that?"

SCP-6000-A smiled at Alex Mercer, at SCP-6000-1 in the eyes, as she than spoke out to him.

"I am asking you this...because...what if you can gain the power by absorbing countless versions of yourself. What if you can gain immense power by having then all become a part of you, Alex. Think about it, there many infinite versions of you that exist throughout the entire multiverse, each of them of a different race, a different species, a different heritage, age, powers, divine parent, and yet...all of them, every single one of them are the sons!daughters of the Skarlet King."

This made Alex shocked, as he cannot believe what he had just heard. Absorbing all of his counterparts throughout the known Multiverse, that is utterly insane to even do. This is someone that he has never done before in his whole life, nor has he even tried it. So why in the world would you even try something like this, if you have never done that before?

"You want me to try...I have never done this sort of thing before. I may have the Astral Regulator, but I never did it before!! Hell, I don't even know if I can even pull this sort of thing off!!"

Tilda Moose than stepped forward, and she than spoke out to Alex Mercer.

"You can do it. You have the power to do it. The Astral Regulator gives you the power to do it. It is not limited to just being able to absorb any living firing in a single direction at your line of sight. When you go to an area, such as with the area in where the Tree of Knowledge resides in, you are technically everywhere at once. You will be able to gain the power to absorb all of those versions of you that reside in the Multiverse."

Alex and Rex were a little bit uneasy, as White Witch than took the turn to speak out to Tilda Moose.

"Umm...I hope you didn't forget about this, but...you do remember that the Scarlet King has destroyed countless Earths throughout the Multiverse?! So even if we go to the Tree of Knowledge, we will not be able to pull this sort of thing off. And besides, even if we did absorb what remains of the counterparts that are still left while we are inside of the area that the Tree of Knowledge resides in, it will not be enough for all of us to go out and try to defeat the Scarlet King. Not to mention the fact that...we have no idea where the Tree of Knowledge is located at, if we don't find the entrance to where it leads to.

Tilda Moose than smiled at White Witch, as she than spoke out to him.

"That is where we have a solution to the problem, White Witch."

Rex than took the turn to look at Tilda Moose and spoke out.

"What do you mean by that?"

SCP-6000-A than spoke out to the 3.

"Tell me...have you ever noticed something odd when you entered through those portals, where you can see some earths returning and reappearing, and sometimes it is empty, sometimes it is full, all those changes outside?"

This caught their attention, because truth be told...yeah. They remember that sort of thing. When the Scarlet King began his reign of destruction, they can see that earths are continuing to pop up time and time, sometimes it appears, sometimes it vanished, sometimes the area is almost entirely empty, sometimes it is full with so many earths, and they have no idea as to why in the world this sort of thing is happening.
