Chapter 42 Dark Garden

"The drones we sent have sent back a video recording of the place," LTC. Coil's word buzzed through the speakers in the room as the ten members of Cemetery Wind were getting ready to put on their tactical suits and gear.

LTC. Coil's voice continues. "We still don't know what kind of power is in that place. But we have obtained data on the Magic power of the Elves from the bunker to the west."

"With the strength of the equipment and weapons you currently have, I'm sure you will be able to overcome all of that."

The members of Cemetery Wind wore thin armor all over. But when activated, the armor will emit a wave that will become an invisible shield.

In addition, they are also equipped with the latest Exo Suit technology. This new gear is shaped like a skeleton that covers the hands to the fingers, toes, and shoulders of the member of this special unit.

With the Exo Suit, Cemetery Wind members can move faster and have stronger strength, and their mobility is also larger because this Exo Suit is equipped with a propulsion system. Of course, this is not a technology that is known to everyone.

This technology is still very secret and only known by a few people in the military ranks. LTC. Ibis and LTC. Coil of course used their power to access this equipment and gave it to Cemetery Wind.

All of their gear had the same extraordinary features as the one Steve and Anna had when stealing the keys. That is the ability to be invisible.

All this technology looks like something that can only be achieved with Magic. But no, in fact, they only use technology that has been developed very far.

After all, any advanced technology is indistinguishable from Magic.

The portal opened in the hangar. Precisely in the middle of the plane and other vehicles parked in there. A white vortex opened and showed glimpses of what was behind it.

The glassed woman was standing next to the Portal and looked inside with eyes full of admiration. She is still there after opening it to admire this Portal to another world.

Ten members of Cemetery Wind entered the hangar with full gear and weapons. They were waiting for orders from their superiors to enter the Portal.

"Ah, too bad I can't go there." the woman lamented in a tone that sounded like a combination of sadness mixed with disappointment.

LTC. Ibis and LTC. Coil entered the hangar shortly after. After giving some details of the mission they had to do and a recording containing the woman's voice saying the words to reopen the Portal, they immediately ordered them to enter the Portal.

The ten members entered the Portal in succession. Before long they had disappeared into another world.

LTC. Ibis, LTC. Coil, and the woman stared from behind the closed Portal. LTC. Ibis and LTC. Coil was in the same mind. They smiled at finally being able to get the secret of the Elves' immortality.

But Elis, the woman wearing glass, was disappointed. She wanted to enter that fantasy world.

Since childhood, she has always been interested in fantasy fairy tales about Elf, Magic, Dragon, and others. And dreaming that someday she would be able to get into one.

Unfortunately now she can't enter because it will only interfere with the mission.

"Don't be too disappointed, Elis. If all goes well you can get in there," LTC. Coil said.

Elis looked up with sparkling eyes. "Is that true?!"

"Yes," LTC. Coil said with a smile. "If all goes well."

LTC. Ibis just remained silent without looking at Elis. He didn't care about the woman at all other than her knowledge and functions.

LTC. Ibis's eyes turned his attention to the Portal that finally closed. He waited with an excited heart for their comeback with the water from the fountain.

Cemetery Wind had finally arrived in this other dimension. Their eyes spread out in all directions trying to find anything that looked dangerous. But they found nothing.

What they saw around them at this moment was a garden overgrown with flowers.

They couldn't see everything because it was still dark. Even though they used night vision, all they could see was a scene with not-so-clear colors.

But they know they have to focus on more important tasks right now.

On their visor, they could see a map showing their destination. The members of Cemetery Wind immediately followed the directions on the map with caution.

Moments later they heard a voice from far away. The rumble sounded closer and closer to them. The members of Cemetery Wind became alert.

"Hide!" their leader gave orders.

They immediately hid behind trees and bushes. After that, they activated their stealth technology and immediately melted into the night.

The Elf army led by Aerchon riding the Unicorn arrived at the Eternal Garden. They immediately put on alert eyes to look around.

Their Unicorn eyes lit up giving light to the surroundings. But they saw nothing when they got here.

"What happened?" Aerchon mumbled. This time he didn't use Magic so only elves could understand what he was saying.

"We can't understand what you're saying," Erend said in an irritated tone. He undauntedly glared at Aerchon.

Aerchon stared back at him with equally irritated eyes. But he wasted no time arguing with him and immediately used Magic.

"There's nothing suspicious here." Aerchon who had used Magic said to Erend.

Erend, Billy, and Lt. Boartusk spread their gaze around and they really couldn't see anything.

"They can disappear," Lt. Boartusk said.

The laughter of several Elves could be heard.

"Disappeared? Since when can humans use Magic?" Aerchon said with a mocking smile.

"That's true. We managed to steal the key because they have suits that can make them disappear," Billy said.

The elves still couldn't believe it. They considered what Lt. Boartusk and Billy are nonsense.

Then Aerchon ordered them all to start scattering around.

"Fifty-three," the leader of Cemetery Wind said everything after getting confirmation. "On my mark. Let's finish them quickly."
