On witnessing 2 of their warships being destroyed in the span of just over a dozen minutes, horror gripped the hearts of the Mocan army. Disbelief filled their hearts but they knew that they were not hallucinating.
For years, the Mocan and even the Spartan soldiers believed that only warships could destroy warships. In their perspective, those were war weapons of technology that already transcended human capabilities.
Now, this notion in their heart was ruthlessly cut off and replaced. Seeing the 2 crashed warships, they felt fear grip their soul.
Despite the shock, the Mocan war leaders were able to react instantly.
Immediately, they improvised in even more drastic ways. The Mocan army did not dare leave anything to luck and chances again.
Blue fire spewed out of the sides of the enormous Leviathan, pouring out enough heat to propel it with speed as it immediately rushed to the side of the nearest warship closest to the Spartan President.
Thanks for reading.
The same way that the Mocan forces infiltrated the Spartan republic in droves like an unstoppable tide, so also did they retreat like a tide of headless sheep without a shepherd.The Generals and military leaders who were part of the commanding brass tried to make it an organized retreat, but the vengeful Spartan soldiers did not let them.Now unrestrained, the Spartan air force finally had the opportunity to rule the skies. Spartan Fighter jets, War helicopters, airborne war machines all filled the skies in pursuit of the enemies.Bringing 80% of their forces for an invasion was an extremely risky venture from the onset, now the Mocans suffered the repercussions for real.Under the leadership of Commander Rashford and Commander Arthur, the Spartan army went on a rampage.Both Commanders did not hold back at all, they vented all their pent-up rage and frustration over the past 5 days, using all these to draw more power to massacre more efficiently
When morning finally came, Clark and the other soldiers of Vatican City still didn’t have the luxury of sleep. All the corpses in the city needed to be taken care of and they as soldiers were needed for the burials. With bloodshot eyes, Clark did not participate in the cleaning as he walked towards the Vatican government building after giving orders to the soldiers. He did not know the current state of his car as his implant could not connect with it. His mind was not focused on that now though, he had other more important pending matters. As he walked, his eyes subconsciously wandered randomly, taking in all the damage along the way until he got to his location. As soon as he got to the government building, he met the city commissioners. Head Commissioner Patrick looked a few years older, it was clear that the war took a toll on his health physically and psychologically. On seeing their leader, the commissioners greeted him but with much less
In the Presidential Villa, as the cities were slowly being cleaned by the soldiers in other to begin proper recovery measures from the war, the same thing also happened here.Before the sun brightened completely, the Spartan soldiers already engaged in a huge clean-up. With heavy hearts, the soldiers removed the corpses of their comrades and cleaned the blood of their friends.As this was done, a proper record of the war was also compiled.…In the President’s mansion inside the Villa, Commander Rashford and Commander Arthur whose war armors had cracks and were still stained by blood and dust walked inside the mansion.After the war ended prematurely, while their subordinates went out to hunt the Mocan soldiers vengefully, they both remained behind to arrange things and return everything to the normal order.Just like the other soldiers, they didn’t get to sleep throughout the night. Only their physiques as 5th rank high-g
“Who are you?” The Spartan President asked again as he did not get an answer the first time. While he asked, his hands already slid inside his jacket. After his fingers laid down on the daggers, he finally felt a little secure. Yes, he did not feel secure but only felt a little secure because this person sitting before him was like a different existence entirely. As a 5th rank high-grade soldier who was at the pinnacle, his perception was extremely frightening. Right now, the aura being released by this stranger was so crushing that he found it a chore to remain standing. “Who is this? Who did I offend? Is it related to the war?” As he looked at the stranger warily, his brain already geared into overdrive as a lot of thoughts went through his mind. In this world, few existences could suppress him so completely with aura alone. He already had a guess but he did not dare confirm it. Seconds passed and still getting no response fr
The day after the end of the war was New year's day.The Mocan republic celebrated the new year like always, but the atmosphere in the country was strange and oppressive compared to recent years. It was like they committed an abomination.About wars, it was only normal for civilians of any country to hate it. Too bad that they were not the ones in the decision-making brass, the President of the country and the military Commanders were the ones in charge.Though during the war period news from Sparta was cut off from the whole world and only optimistic news of the Mocan army winning was sent back, most Mocan civilians could still imagine the brutality.Throughout the years, the Spartan republic hardly ever takes the initiative to invade but there are rare examples where they did.Those that lived in that period knew how it was, so they didn’t want to see such a thing happening again.Only the true lunatics who craved violence enjoyed th
Vatican City, 5 days after the war. The city was now in full recovery mode as soldiers, constructors, architects, and engineers patrolled everywhere, measuring and calculating various statistics on how to best reconstruct the city. The recovery was not as fast as predicted, this was because of the huge money that the city lost in the war and there was little that can be done about it. Vatican City was among the cities in the republic that lost the least money, despite this such money was still staggering to them. After addressing the whole city, Clark finally convened with the citizens and a mass burial was organized 2 days ago to bury the dead. It was a sad atmosphere throughout but the deed was done and nothing could be done to revert it. After the burial, the city pooled its remaining cash reserves to compensate and support the families of the deceased soldiers, and also to slightly help the civilians. This was the best that could b
Clark didn’t go back to his mansion immediately after leaving the bar. He instead took a cut and went to a boisterous corner of the city; his destination was precisely the company- Trailblazers.This was a place that he loved visiting when he was younger, he also brought Benny and Leo here when they were spending the week-long vacation given to them by the Python military division.He knew how unstable he currently was, he wanted to come here and see if the entertainment scene here could enliven his mood.Entering, he was surprised as the place was filled up. He quickly understood what was happening; just like him, some people also wanted to forget the trauma of the war and they sought help here also.After finding a chair to sit on, he tried to open up his mind.It did not take long before the show started. This time, it was for an hour as highlights of legendary footballers, and soldiers were shown to him.When the time elapsed, he w
Northern Sparta, headquarters of the Spartan army. After days of preparation and planning, today was the burial day for all the heroic Spartan soldiers that died in the just concluded main invasion war. Due to the war, the headquarters of the Spartan army suffered a lot of damage but as time went it was already almost reconstructed. As it was standing at the same level with the Presidential Villa as the symbols of honor of the Spartan republic, it was a given that priority would be given to it after the recovery measures started. Almost all the soldiers of the Spartan army seemed to have been gathered in the enormous military cemetery built inside the city-like territory of the army’s headquarters. Outside the walls of the cemetery were gathered a large group of soldiers, their numbers were so much that they seemed like locusts flocking the skies. As all of them were dressed in black both men and women, they formed a uniform table form
6 months ago, the sky turned red which according to world leaders signified the start of the war that would decide the fate of humanity.2 months prior, the news was finally publicized, spreading worldwide panic but with all the most powerful world leaders working together, the panic was easily curbed and order was restored.According to the government, humanity was not hopeless, they had heroes in the form of their soldiers and elite soldiers.Not only that, humanity had a superhero, the great Elite Commander Clark Pendragon. After the special training started, a fuse seemed to have been switched on as the Spartan soldier experienced a period of rapid growth.With veteran Elite Commanders around to guide him and with every resource he needed available, he encountered no bottlenecks, he improved at a superhuman speed never recorded since the human race was born.In just 4 months, he broke through 2 times, going all the way to the Elite-grade rank.
A month later, in the Gen. Clark Pendragon Mansion.At the big balcony attached to the mansion, Clark stood, looking out into the distance as a lot of things went through his mind. The past one month has been the best in his life, and he was grateful for it.Despite it being the best in his life, as a 4th rank high-grade soldier now, his intuition told him that something was happening.As a high-grade soldier and mercenary, things happened everyday around him but he knew that this was not the normal happenings, his intuition told him that this was far higher than anything that he has encountered before.And after making connections from the recent happenings, from his famous marriage ceremony, to the big 5 jointly broadcasting it, a lot of other things and now the Spartan President personally calling for him, he confirmed his guess.Something big was happening, it was just that no one deemed it right to inform him about it yet. As a man
Vatican City Central Church, General Clark Street. This was the church where the big things were happening for today. Not only people from all over the Spartan republic, even esteemed guests from foreign high-grade countries came to grace this occasion. Today was the day of Vatican City hero’s marriage ceremony. After 22 years as a single, General Clark Pendragon was finally ready to tie the nut with his fiancée. The name of the street where the ceremony was commencing was given and commissioned a few days after Clark became a General. Some of the most esteemed guests attending the marriage ceremony were the legendary President of the Spartan republic, Leonidas, and the armor tycoon, the billionaire Mr. Calibri of the Dakran republic. These 2 people were such powerful and well-known personalities in their own rights that their attendance alone shot the attention being given to the marriage ceremony to the highest point. Not only that,
“Leonidas, you wish to attend?”Hearing that, the Spartan President sighed, exasperated. “If you were not my mentor, I would have probably fired you already. Cough…, sorry for that but I’m really going, what’s the big deal?”“You’re really asking me that right now? Of course, there’s a big deal. Apart from military burials, do you know the last time you have for social gatherings?”“I dunno, probably a decade or 2”.“No…, 4 decades! 4 whole decades! You get that?” The old man emphasized by waving his hands vigorously, showing 4 fingers at the powerful soldier.“Suddenly going to a social event after such a long time staying at home, what do you think will be people’s reaction. They may feel that something is happening, they may even panic”.“And just because he’s a 4th rank high-grade soldier does not change anythin
A day after the reunion with her family, Sonia took permission with her parents before going on the first official date with her boyfriend. It was a date, but they just wanted to spend more time together and close to each other. The few years apart was torment to them, now that they had the opportunity, they wanted to make up for it by all means. At first, staying together left them feeling awkward but they soon got over it and started reliving the feelings of a few years ago. For the destination for their first date, none of them planned for it as they were both individuals who have never interacted with the opposite sex in such fashions before now. As the only daughter of a famous billionaire, other billionaire sons already tried courting her in the past but she simply didn’t find them appealing enough, so she always ignored and avoided them. After just a day of staying with Clark, her brother, and her parents in her childhood home, she now
Among the 3 Pirate Gods in the Sahara, though none of them never publicly claimed the spot as the strongest, the Black Pirate God was the one most recognized by pirates as the strongest. After him was the powerful Red Goddess Pirate, then the Lilac Pirate God. Compared to the first 2, the Lilac Pirate God was on the more glaringly weaker side but he still had the strength to back his title. At this moment, in the Black God Pirate City, a surprising piece of news was being circulated. Pirate Queen Anamel was dead, and Pirate Queen Cobra was secretly a student of the Red Goddess. Not only that, the most shocking piece of news that took the city by storm was that of Pirate Queen Cobra’s intention to leave the Sahara and settle in normal human settlements outside. … “Is this news verified?” A deep voice asked with suppressed anger in an underground room with far better living conditions than most of the others out there in the desert. “Yes
Though they both wanted to just remain in each other’s embrace forever, Clark and Sonia knew that they were still in a pirate city and what it meant. With reluctance, they quickly left the city with Arthur.Even if they tried to cover it up, it was impossible so they didn’t bother. In minutes, the news of Pirate Queen Anamel’s death spread through the pirate city and beyond.For long, Clark has always been worried about his reaction when he finally saw Sonia again but he was surprised when he did. It was like they never separated; it was like they’ve lived through all these years together.15 minutes later, they got sufficiently far away into the desert from the pirate city so they finally had the time to speak things out.Sonia brought out the stolen pistol first, which Clark handed over to Arthur. After this, she finally started detailing her encounters after Clark asked.According to her, after the fierce battle on her fa
While Arthur asked the pirate, Clark already went to work as he closed his eyes to focus. As experienced soldiers, they already put a lot of contingencies in place during their tour around the pirate city.Even if they wanted to catch some fun, it was too unrealistic for them to just keep touring without setting anything in place.With his implant, Clark immediately accessed the hidden cameras that they placed around the city, most especially this bar. It didn’t take him long; he saw a hooded female going out through the bar’s back door.“Found our target”.While muttering to Arthur, Clark already turned to storm out of the bar. Arthur simply knocked the 2 pirates out before storming out also.In seconds, they were out of the bar’s main structure.…A few meters away from the bar, a hooded lady walked through the streets at a leisure pace as she kept a close but alert eye on her surroundings.<
The next day, Clark and Arthur woke up with the intention to remain patient while waiting for their informant to contact them. They didn’t even go into the pirate city, it was too disgusting for them to stay in it. The more Clark felt this way, the more he feared what his girlfriend may have become now. If just a day staying in it could make him this irritated, he just couldn’t imagine what staying here for 4 years could have done. Thinking of this, he felt guilty again. “Why didn’t I come earlier?” Souring his mood with such thoughts, the day moved extremely slowly to him. Perhaps, having noticed his current mood, Arthur didn’t disturb him and opted to go out hunting alone. When he came back, he had a desert antelope with him. Seeing the catch, Clark was left speechless. “Can we finish that?” Arthur wasn’t fazed by his question. “If we can’t finish it today, we’ll just finish it tomorrow or the next. Don’t worry, I have preservation gadgets with me, and besides, your girlfriend
