"The fleet is three hundred kilometers from the target"

"Optimal. No signs of retaliation from the dinosaurs?" Quaritch murmured, chewing his own saliva. "It is now impossible that they have not spotted us"

“It is probable, but they still do not act. Not even the marine reptiles are doing anything: our submarines confirm that there are no signs of life underwater" replied the man on the radio. "It seems they want to use our ultimatum to the last"

Quaritch sighed deeply. “Keep your eyes open. Don't be fooled: they are around there somewhere”. He stared intently at the screens in front of him. “Let's move on to phase one. Let all the jets take off and bomb the coast"

As soon as his command reached the fleet, a flock of planes rose from the aircraft carriers. At least 150,000 jets lifted off the ships' decks and set off for the coast.

Three hundred kilometers was not a huge amount for jets that could fly at supersonic speeds. M

    As soon as he received the approval from the NMWA, the Colonel immediately set to work. He knew he didn't have much time: he had to act immediately and take over the Eternal Palace as soon as possible.The Colonel was in no doubt that after the NMWA's attack, the dinosaurs would show their true nature as brutal killers and attack Beleriard. Even if the NMWA's fleet could keep them busy, even a small handful of those monsters could have exterminated tens of thousands of people. The nation had to rely on NMWA protection right away, before the dinosaurs made any move.The Colonel gathered his soldiers in his base and made his speech: “Brothers! Today is the big day! We will finally get rid of this plague. Today we will conquer the Eternal Palace and bring the nation back on track. There will be no more room for dinosaur sympathizers; the country will once again take sides with the species to which we belong, humanity! Because humans are the only ones who have the ri

    The Colonel looked at the man who had appeared in front of him. "What a surprise... Abraham, the new minister of defense" he laughed. “Or rather, a security guard playing minister of defense.

We know all about your plan and all the intrigues the NMWA has set up. Let's avoid further bloodshed. Give up now and cooperate, and maybe the law will be kind to you""Tsk!" The Colonel wasn't intimidated. "Do you think I'm falling for it? I have studied my strategy for a long time. You may know something, but it is impossible for you to know everything. And even if that were the case, you can't hope to stop us. You are too few and we have the best weapons"“Even if you manage to reach the Eternal Palace, how do you think you can rule the nation?

    Hoskin Bay was quiet that day; there was no wind and the sea was calm. The sky was clear and nothing suggested a worsening of the atmospheric conditions. Logically, nothing could have disturbed the tranquility that the ocean enjoyed that day.Yet suddenly the sea began to boil. It happened for a few seconds, then a giant metal box emerged. Small waves formed around it and the fish fled as it passed. The submarine was more than 170 meters long, like the Typhoon-class ones on Earth.Other submarines emerged one after the other. Very quickly at least fifty submarines were making their way to the coast. Then they became a hundred. Eventually, two hundred submarines could be seen in Hoskin Bay.When they docked Colonel Wainfleet was the first to get out. Behind him came hundreds and hundreds of soldiers equipped with the best technologies. Very soon more than ten thousand soldiers were gathered on the ground."Hurry! In line for three, and in combat gear! Kill

    "President, Abe has announced that he has completed his assignment" Jackson said as he entered the room. "The NMWA's army is defeated"“I was already aware of that. Al informed me”Jocelyne replied. The girl was talking to the allosaurus, who was quickly explaining what had happened. "How many losses have we suffered?""About two hundred, plus a few dinosaurs" Jackson replied."We dinosaurs have suffered eight casualties" Al completed.Jackson lowered his head. "Yes. Excuse me, Mr. Ambassador""I understand" Jocelyne murmured. “I will immediately announce the results of the battle live nationally. In the next few days we will have a monument built at the site of the battle to commemorate those who fell on this day""Sounds like a sensible choice" Jackson said.

  • I'm a spinosaurus with a System to raise a dinosaur army   Devastating battle

    As soon as Sobek gave him the green light, Buck had teleported with the entire assault legion to the center of the fleet. The ships were literally overrun in a second by hundreds of heavily armed dinosaurs.Since it was the first infantry, Sobek had provided each member of the assault legion with armor and a weapon; that had drained his reserve of bonus money, but he didn't care as he was sure to receive more once the war was won.When the dinosaurs teleported to the deck, the large animals forcefully launched themselves at the humans using their bodies as weapons, while on their backs the smaller dinosaurs used machine guns, rifles, bazookas and other heavy weapons to take out the humans from a distance.The humans were completely unprepared for that lightning attack; before they actually realized what was happening, thousands of soldiers were already dead. And even when they realized the event, their recovery was slow: the chaos in which the fleet was pouring

    The explosions and roars were so loud they could be heard even from the center of the forest.To prevent the weaker ones from getting involved, Sobek had ordered Old Li to bring elders, puppies and all those not fit to fight in the thick of the forest, in the fortification erected by Eema. Together the triceratops and the ankylosaurus had brought everyone to safety and were now waiting for the noises to stop."This mess gives me chills" Eema murmured as she listened to the distant explosions."You don't have to worry" Old Li replied."How can you be so calm?"“I am not at all. But I know that by worrying I would get nothing but make things worse. So it's better to get distracted and wait for news"Eema sighed, then agreed that the ankylosaurus was right. "Yes, okay" she said, nibbling again on a blade of grass.Shortly thereafter, however, the explosions ceased. Eema and Old Li raised their heads in the direction of battle, foll

    If anyone had decided to pass near the South Sea that day, they would have witnessed an unprecedented sight. The sea water had turned red, so dark that you couldn't look under it. Thousands of corpses of huge ships lay in the water; most of them were submerged, but some protruded from the ocean since the seabed was so covered with wrecks that it was impossible to descend further. Fish and other sea creatures moved frantically through that graveyard of ships, devouring the remains of all the humans who had been aboard. And out of the water some aquatic dinosaurs wandered among the remains of the ships not yet submerged, looking for any survivors.That place would in the future be remembered as the Naval Cemetery and would become a historical place. A monument would have been erected on the nearby cliff, consisting of dozens of tombstones bearing the names of all the soldiers who died that day, or at least those whose identity was known. Treasure hunters would often venture amo

    Sobek's announcement was broadcast around the world within minutes. The whole of humanity was waiting to know the results of the war campaign, and as soon as the video was put online it went viral. The media did not hesitate to broadcast it on all their platforms and within half a day there was not a single human being on the planet who had not seen it.The first reaction was panic. When people saw the first few minutes of the video showing the destroyed fleet, they were terrified. Many had not even finished watching the video and had fled to the shelters expecting an attack by the dinosaurs at any moment.But the moment of panic did not last long, and was immediately followed by the most total despair. There were many families who had lost at least one family member in the war. Inside the fleet there were parents, uncles, grandparents, brothers and children, and now they were all dead and did not even have a grave. The families did not even have the opportunity to ret

    Epilogue

    It took Sobek a few moments before he realized he was back in the room where it all began. That room where time and space ceased to exist, and where everything and nothing seemed to have changed at the same time. He already knew where he had to go; walking through the infinitely large (or perhaps infinitely small) room, in a few minutes (or perhaps a few centuries, who knows) he reached the familiar armchair on which was seated a woman with white skin and light hair.God didn't even seem to move since she sent him to Eden. Even her expression didn't seem to have changed at all. She was still the same, beautiful and terrible at the same time, whose gaze was both magnetic and loving on him. “Welcome back, son,” she greeted him in her crystal clear voice.Sobek advanced on her. This time there wasn't an armchair waiting for him, but a large mattress wide enough to allow him to lie down. She lay back on it and gazed intently at God. Even now, after he'd grown i

    Death of a legend

    On the continent of Maakanar, near a river that was once a typical spinosaurus nesting place, something immense could be seen. A huge creature was lying on its belly, but nevertheless it was so tall that its dorsal sail towered over the surrounding masts.Sobek was now thirty-three years old. To say he had grown into a behemoth was an understatement: he now measured 150 meters from head to tail and reached 45.6 meters in height. Even without activating the mutation he was now larger than Godzilla: the gigantic atomic reptile was a tiny lizard compared to him. All kaiju would be small compared to him. Even King Ghidorah would have been forced to acknowledge its superiority.In the last five years he had hardly moved. After the death of his last loyalist he returned to his birthplace and settled there. He ate what was provided to him from the [Personal Manger] and drank the water from the river. Otherwise, he remained calm, warming himself in the sun or admiring the star

    The last fight

    After a few days Nefertiti settled at the lake together with her father and her last remaining uncle. With the help and indications of Sobek she built a comfortable nest and there she laid her egg.Thus began the brood. The female spinosaurus never moved from above her little egg, keeping it constantly warm. Sobek and Buck brought her food and water. When Nefertiti was hot, Sobek used her huge wing as a parasol and Buck fanned her with his tail. In the rare moments when it was cold, the two of her huddled to help her warm up.That routine went on for three months. Finally, at the end of the third month, a familiar clicking sound came from under Nefertiti's paws.The female spinosaurus reared up and looked down. A small crack was opening on the egg. With a smile she moved from above it. The crack widened more and more and finally a large piece of egg broke off, showing a lively green eye that stared intently at Nefertiti.“Hello, baby. I'm your mothe

    The first true hunt

    Time had passed again. Sobek couldn't even figure out how much time had actually passed now. One year? Two? Maybe three? He didn't know.After his retirement, Sobek had gone deep into the forest of Maakanar. It was hard for him to move his huge body through the trees and very often ended up destroying them: his passage was evident as a trail of uprooted trunks was always behind him. He had moved permanently to the lake where he had met Buck and where he had established his first army. And he hadn't gone there alone.Carnopo and Buck had joined him just a month after his departure. They, too, had decided they'd had enough and abandoned their roles entirely. After all, in the new world there was no longer a need for either an army commander or one of the shock legion. Now there was peace, and the old war veterans had no reason to try to find their place in their world. So they had decided to do what they had always done: follow their pack leader.The trio spent th

    Passing to the next generation

    Another year had passed. In Sobek's eyes, time seemed to have begun to flow more rapidly. The months and weeks all passed almost the same and in a flash the morning turned into evening.Humanity had continued its advance. By now, Aphrodites had been fully colonized. Whole cities had sprung up on it and millions of settlers had begun to live there. Davis had now reached more than a billion inhabitants and Hermes now owned thousands of mining establishments.Thanks to teleportation technology it was so advanced that traveling between planets was even easier than going from one city to another. Since energy and material consumption were now no longer a concern thanks to solar panels on Hermes and mining plants on asteroids, everyone had a portable teleportation device. By now, being hired to work a mine on an asteroid was no different than being hired to work at the local convenience store.Colonies on the moons of Leviathan and Behemoth had multiplied, providing e

    More time, more changes. In just one year, many things had changed.Nefertiti had assumed control of the entire astrophysics division of the dinosaur pack, effectively acting as acting pack leader for them. After the first shared mission, she had begun to promote more policies of integration and union between humans and animals. She had facilitated interspecies interspace operations, sending animals and humans to work together in the new worlds to be colonized. Furthermore, there was still much to colonize, as human attention was slowly shifting beyond the outer Solar System to the dwarf planets and comets of the Oort Cloud.The work was not cheap and with it the possibilities of working together. With the Dyson Sphere nearing completion, energy was no longer an issue. After determining which moons to colonize, the Eden Union had begun an intensive mining program in the asteroids of the main belt in order to be able to build huge lenses to capture the sunlight and also

    Path of the giant

    One more year, more innovations. The more time passed, the more progress seemed to accelerate. It was like a speeding train that multiplied its speed every second: first slow, then faster and faster, until it turned into a giant projectile.Sobek knew that progress was bound to accelerate more and more, after all it was his nature. For each new discovery, countless doors open. And every door leads to other doors. This was the nature of progress. It was no coincidence that it took humanity less than two hundred years to go from horses to aircraft capable of leaving the orbit of their home planet.He recalled that on Earth, where he came from, progress had become so fast in the 21st century that it was enough to be born even a generation later or further back to find oneself in a completely different world. While in 1990 the main communication system was the satellite phone, in 2020 people used social networks for the most disparate things. While in 1990 movies were watc

    Science is eternal

    More time had passed. This time it was a year… or maybe a year and a half? I don't know. Not that it mattered much, actually.The world's attention to the inner solar system was gradually waning. Now that three planets had been terraformed, even if one of them still wasn't enough, and Hermes had become a stable colony that was continuously producing large panels of glass that joined in the orbit of the Sun to form the Dyson Sphere, the humanity was beginning to anticipate new challenges. From the inner solar system it was time to move to the outer solar system.Although some colony outposts were already present on some moons of Behemoth, they could not be defined as true colonies. However, now that energy consumption was no longer a problem thanks to the Dyson Sphere, which although not completed already released enormous amounts of energy, the Eden Union decided to start an exploration program of the entire outer solar system, or at least of the space between B

    Giant of the skies

    Two more years had passed. The advance of humanity towards the stars continued inexorably.The hypotheses of the scientists had proved to be correct: using a combination of gravity control technology and energy obtained from the Dyson sphere, although still incomplete, they had managed to accelerate the rotation of Aphrodites. The planet was slowly accelerating, though not too fast. There was generally talk of an hour each week. At this speed there was no risk of destroying the infrastructure already present on the planet. Yes two years, the rotation period had gone from 2082 hours to 1978 hours. Continuing at this rate, it was expected to reach 24 hours in 'just' another 38 years.Once this process was completed, the huge orbiting mirrors could finally be taken off. The day/night cycle would no longer be artificially determined and there would no longer be the risk that something would go wrong due to the impact of a micrometeorite. In addition, the accelerated rotati
