Chapter 315 315. Markus Is Catching Up

"Stop!! Don't shoot!! No one is allowed to shoot in that direction!!" Professor shouted, finally losing his control.

And why won't he, because he had seen Kizy, standing at the deck, leading the ship like the ice queen she always was.

And fortunately the men stopped on time, before any mishap would have happened.

However, within the next thirty seconds, they saw Markus's ship catching up from behind. And once again they all turned back towards the professor, waiting for his next command.

*KIZY's SHIP*

"Increase the speed Joel. Markus is catching up." Kizy said in a cold voice, not wanting Markus to reach them.

'Young madam, I am already going to get a good scolding for not listening to my boss and accompanying you to race ahead of them. Can you not see that the boss is worried about you?' Joel cried internally, but still signalled the captain to increase the speed.

With that both Kizy and Joel went inside, preparing for the fight.

"Launch three missiles in succession." Kizy ordered coldly.

"What if they fire back?" Joel asked almost instantly.

"He won't. No matter what, he would never shoot at my ship. Hence the only thing we need to take care of is that Markus is never overtaking us. If we block their path, then they would never shoot at us." Kizy simply explained while picking up her own gun.

Though she had said that she won't be participating in this battle, how could she let her near and dear ones face this alone? Especially when all this had started because of her.

And though she wasn't responsible, Kizy still somewhere blamed herself for whatever was happening around them.

"Should we shoot?" Joel asked for a final confirmation.

"Yeah." Kizy replied in the coldest voice Joel had ever heard.

And thus, without any further delay, three missiles were shot straight towards the Imperial Nation, welcoming Kizy's ship to their kingdom.

*MARKUS's SHIP*

"What the hell are you doing?? Why aren't we overtaking that ship? What are you waiting for?" Markus shouted at his team after watching how Kizy was nearing the bay while they were still lacking.

"Boss, we are at our fastest speed right now. Unfortunately that ship turns out to be better in some aspects, speed being one of them. We won't be able to overtake them." The captain replied, his voice literally diminishing by the end of his speech.

And Markus should have expected this. Afterall he was the one to select that ship for Kizy with highest safety measures and advanced technology. How could he blame the captain now that it was his mistake to begin with.

"Boss, they shot missiles towards the Imperial Nation." Team Charlie captain informed Markus, his voice soon followed by three loud crashes in succession.

*IMPERIAL NATION*

Just when Markus's ship was overtaking Kizy's, Professor ordered.

"All of you, leave the gates. We are moving inside." The professor said, as if already seeing through Kizy's plan.

"Professor, we can shoot Satan's ship." The captain gathered his courage before speaking.

"Hazel will never allow us to shoot them. Look at that." The professor said and all of them turned to look back at the sea, where Kizy had successfully hidden Markus's ship behind hers.

"Now leave this place quickly. She already has her next move ready." Professor said before getting inside his royal car while others instantly followed, taking their respective vehicles and leaving the gates.

Though many of them weren't approving of the Professor's plan of leaving their gates open for the enemies and running away, they didn't dare to speak it out loud.

Just as their last set of men had left the gates, they heard three loud crashes behind them, making the earth below their feets tremble badly.

They all turned to look back, only to see the gates destroyed with smoke and fire enveloping the same place they were standing moments ago.

And they couldn't thank the professor enough for probably saving their lives for the first time ever.

"Head back to the main quarters." Professor coldly ordered, knowing he had no other way to attack.

The only option he had was to let Kizy and others step on their land and then attack while making sure he won't hurt Kizy at all.

Afterall he was doing all this, going to great lengths of fighting so many people only to achieve Kizy i.e Hazel. Thus if something was to happen to her, how could he take that?

*KIZY's SHIP*

"Increase the speed. We need to land right now. We can not give them much time to settle down." Kizy ordered.

'Young Madam, the ship is already at its fastest speed. How much faster do you expect it to run?' Joel thought, truly amazed that Kizy wasn't afraid of the current speed.

"We will reach the land within one minute and thirty seconds." The captain of the ship announced, informing the team on board.

"Let's head to the control room first." Kizy said to which Joel simply nodded, before both of them left for the control room.

Once inside, Kizy immediately took the announcement mic, intending to explain her plan to her team.

"Our team will be divided into two groups. One will be leaving the ship immediately after reaching land. This group will be responsible for attacking the front line along with me.

Second group will be staying on the ship for some more time with Joel. You will be watching over the island, any snipers or any other dangers that might come our way. You will end all of them.

Once you clear all those, immediately join us on land cause we will need more force. We will approximately need almost ten minutes to reach the main palace while attacking and defending at the same time.

There are two things you need to keep in mind - first, please protect yourself before attacking. Don't give them weaknesses to target easily. Is that clear?" Kizy asked and paused to which all the members replied a 'Yes' in unison.
