Chapter 398: The Ocean and the Sun

Name:New Game+ Author:
Among Mid-Tier Presiders, Andronze was reputed for taking a more eccentric path in the technologies she researched, and the Judges Claim that she made.

While most Presiders would save up their Claims to acquire the higher techs of a specific Technological path, Andronze took several mid-level Claims and had the most numerous mid-tier techs even when considering the Presiders back in their planet.

Dug Down Deep was the term that the people of Earth used in referring to Egypt's impressive underground moving technology. Not only did Egypt have a massive underground world, but it was also well maintained and protected that even earthquakes could no destroy or create a collapse in this underground world.

Aside from that, Egypt had techs where their devices could 'swim' through the dirt and rocks without leaving a tunneling path in its wake. This technology was so mysterious that even Lennox, who had been suspecting Egypt's involvement, could not replicate Dug Down Deep.

Egypt also had several techs that were hidden. Their Sandstorm technology was superior compared to Caliphates Dune Technology.

The bio-enhancement programs that allowed Egypt to breed the billions of locusts were scattered all over the land. It was used to scan, scout, detect, and even be used offensively as this locust could explode, and their blood even had a powerful acidic property that could melt certain objects.

The Locust was even had several species, which creates a different kind of explosion when triggered or could leave different kinds of corrosive properties that could attack different kinds of metal.

Kingless Control Science easily controlled the billions of locusts and gave the locust the means to apply strategies and tactics.

And finally, there was Nile Technology.

All of Egypt trembled as the many secret waterways and springs gushed out with water. The Nile river rose and began to move.

"There it is. Oh, man. This entire place has a riverway! Egypt is quite powerful!" Richie laughed.

Water columns erupted and sprouted from the ground, and the waters took the form of Flood Dragons.

The Flood Dragons didn't immediately rush towards the flying saucer but rushed at the sky.

Various locations below them opened up and began to attack rockets towards the massive sea serpents.

After amassing the rockets inside their body, the Flood Dragons rushed to the sky. 

The Pioneers in Shakstress's ships noticed a strange anomaly.

"Detecting a powerful and threatening signature from those dragons!"

"Quick! Shoot it down! It's becoming a Hydrogen bomb!"

Shakstress's flying saucer began to launch a barrage to destroy the incoming rockets, but the Flood Dragons kept on moving the rockets. They would even spit out beams of water that mysteriously exploded.

The nations watched as the strange water attacks managed to create explosions around the force field.

"How can water explode?!" A Commander marveled.

"Hydrogen. Those Water Dragons are just like the WGP's water titan! It can manipulate and perform various sciences that imitate a hydrogen bomb! The key is those rockets! They are fueling the harnessing the fission and fusion process!" 

The water dragons rushed upwards and continued to shoot out water bullets that created a terrifying explosion.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The eruption that occurred was powerful. It was as if several Hydrogen bombs exploded. But the size and range of each explosion were controlled and contained. There was no immense radiation that filled the skies.

Richie watched in amazement.

"Wow. It's like Lynd and Seeker's battle. This isn't just ordinary nuclear science or hydrogen science. Can you feel it, Hermes?"

"The Wind has changed. Of course, I do. This Mid Tier Andronze is already using the fourth dimension as an energy source. She can't tamper with it like that other woman Pridgeon is fighting, but she can draw from it. Omricon, this could be the secret to a sharper sword. A Wind that travels or harnesses energy beyond the three."

"I will not disappoint you, boss."

"Do we rush in now?" Alvin asked.

"Not yet. It's time for Shakstress to reveal her tech." Lowengren watched in anticipation.

"Deploy the Destroyer Suits! Now!" The commander of Shakstress ship ordered.

It was as if the entire skies grew dark.

Three dark armored suits emerged out of the flying saucer, and free fell towards the water dragons. It passed through the force field and began to devour the light around the area. The region around the flying saucer was noticeably darker, as if it was late in the afternoon. Any explosions that occurred inside the sphere looked like it was in a monochrome color.

The strange armored suits raised their arms, and almost instantly, a bright flash of light occurred and blinded all looking at it.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Three massive suns appeared on the sky.

It was a few kilometers wide and blocked the way to the Flood Dragons.

Arthur watched the scenes above and could resist the blinding light thanks to his unlocking. But as he saw the scene, he had one desire.

"We need one of those suits! It will put Meryl's power to World Champion level!" Arthur declared.

"Yeah. That suit will help turn Meryl into a cultivator! That suit could help her harness her energy! We need those suits!" Harker exclaimed.

"Those things weren't in my son's reports. He never said about suits that are capable of creating suns."

"That's because this Presider probably didn't participate in the war, dear."

"Richie. You will be in charge of getting us in. Create sound explosions on different areas to redirect attention. We also need to be moving faster than the speed of sound. I'll direct the route that we can take to avoid all of those."

"Avoid all those massive explosions?" Oark glanced up and had a frightened expression. Despite his mercenary training, diving into the sky full of suns and hydrogen bombs was a little above his pay grade.

"Relax. He who treads in the Lion's Den can lead us in." Richie chuckled.

"Hermes, I leave you in charge of procuring one of those Dark armors. It will be a tough battle, but can I count on you and your winds?"

"Leave it to us. Omega and Omricon are thirsting for battle anyway."

"Akasha, Gallium. The chaos of this war can make a good cover. There are several submarines waiting for deep underwater. This is your chance of creating more familiars or whatever liquid metal you may need to recover your lost blood. You can even raid some cities in the Caliphate region."

"There are tens of thousands there." Akasha frowned.

"Is that a problem?"

"I'm just asking if it's alright if I kill all of them. The innocent will be implicated."

"Innocent? You're a vampire, and you are worried about that? This is a battle for our survival. Putting aside the future fate of the Caliphates, which raged war against our team, it's better if those people become energy that you can use to fight."

"How heartless. But I can tell a lie when I see it. I know there is more to your plans than just refueling Gallium and me. You are after Gallium's liquid metal, right? All of this for your sister, eh? I wish I had a brother like you." Akasha chuckled.

"Lowengren and Harker. Contact all the other Egyptian bases and lead them accordingly for this battle. Use whatever authority you have as a new Pillar." Arthur ignored Akasha's challenge.

"Andronze will be too busy. Use this chance to expand our connections and control. You have thirty minutes to accomplish this. Then you two have to join us in battle..." Arthur then turned to Vender with a conflicted expression.

"..."

"Yes?" Vender asked.

"I can't believe I'm doing this. Vender, you will take command of our base. Contact General Aurom and work with him... I... I will leave..." Arthur was hesitating.

"I will leave the comm devices to you to broadcast your words all over Egypt."

"NO!" Alvin, Omricon, Omega, Austin, and Gallium shouted.

Even Hermes and Akasha frowned at Arthurs words.

"You're insane! Get that man off the mic!"

"Haven't you heard enough?!"

"Send him up to fight! I won't be able to concentrate if he's talking!"

An eruption of angry complaints was heard. Even the more silent members of the Winds of Hermes were shouting in frustration.

"You sure about this, Arthur?" Lowengren asked.

"He's very annoying. But this applies both ways. We must minimize the concentration of our enemies. We are all vying to be overcomers. You all have to overcome."

"That man infuriates Overcomers! I am against him holding a comm device!" Alvin pleaded.

"Hey, windy, don't argue with Arthur. He's the brains around here. As for you, your job is to blow. So get up there and blow all our enemies. If you do a good job in blowing those enemies, I can even write a rap song about you!"

"Hrm? Richie. Stop blocking the sound." Hermes frowned as he noticed how unaffected Richie's team was.

"Why was there no sound anyway?" Chris asked.

"CHEATER!" Alvin shouted in anger. No wonder those with Richie were unaffected.

"Fine... Ugh." Richie sighed and undid his power.

"Stugs! Stupax! Stupax" Vender felt the rap game coursing through his veins and began to rap.

"Here's to Windy, of the winds of Hermes! He'll blow you good! He'll blow your pe- pe... pelvis. Sorry. I couldn't think of any other words that rhyme with Hermes. My rap games off thanks to that uncomfortable zone-interfering power of those Presiders." Vender sighed.

"DO YOU SEE WHAT I MEAN?!" Alvin cried.

Arthur was sweating from what he heard. If anything, Vender's Path seemed stronger.

Austin wasn't a Christian. But he thanked God that Vender went with the word pelvis instead of another body part that rhymed with Hermes.

"We move now. A window will open for us. Hermes, I'll throw you right in the middle of the battle. Gallium, Akasha, rush back in to aid Hermes. You have ten minutes. Richie. Send us up."

The group immediately acted.

Hermes and Richie's team began to fly. A dust bowl kicked up and followed the flying teams as they raced towards the war between the Ocean and the Sun.
