Somewhere over the skies of South Pacific United, was a large aircraft that continued to fly over it. It was there to forever guard the skies of South pacific United from any attacks coming from the surrounding nations. This aircraft held the best sciences available to South Pacific United.
It guarded the skies from any actions from Pangea and Australia. It was one of the few most advanced aircraft allowed to move within the territory of the Kraken. The plane had the most advanced detectors that would only be surpassed by the SPU. They had the most advanced stealth technology, as was the center of their Technological Possibilities.
Aboard this vessel was the best and brightest that all of the SPU could provide. The training they received for combat and strategic planning were high. They were trained to be able to think so fast that when someone pulls up a gun in front of them, they could react without missing a beat. Every personnel on that craft was the most loyal agent of the united countries of South Pacific.
And all of them were dead.
The entire crew died without any wounds in their bodies. They did not die from any form of poisoning.
The first to die was the pilot. The windshields suddenly broke as a large gash appeared. Something had sliced it in half. And along with the sliced glass and windshields, the necks of the pilot and the co-pilot were immediately severed. A group of six soldiers suddenly entered the plane through the holes that were made.
A woman rushed off into the next room. Yet no one noticed her.
The group of trained elites sensed nothing as she entered the room. And then it happened.
The entire group suddenly realized that they couldn't breathe. The woman who was unseen simply made sure that none of them could ever make a distress call or communicate with the bases below.
And like that, everyone died.
Three hours had passed since then, and it was then that the anomaly occurred.
"Father… An EMP attack on the Kraken." The beautiful young woman reported to her father. She had flawless white skin with a strange light blueish glow that looks like it was radiating.
The man she reported too was tall and lean. He had a very relaxed expression and gave the woman a carefree look.
"Isn't that better? This means we can easily infiltrate it since there is an ongoing battle there. We just need to find the location of where they kept New Great Britain's techs." The man laughed.
"Father. We should not treat our infiltration there with our success in infiltrating this ship. This ship and the Kraken is incomparable."
"Yes. But the Kraken has an ongoing battle. Also, is this far enough for you to sense his presence?"
"No, Father. But please, do not cast aside my suggestion! We have to make a plan! A decent plan."
"What do you think, Austin?"
"Listen to your daughter, Sir." The man called Austin was busy on the computers looking at files.
"Interesting. We should have done this earlier! The data and techs here should inspire greater works for my research."
"You just want to ensure that you get their techs before we trash that place."
"Sir. Technology will be our force to fight this enemy that you claim to have been mentioned by your predecessors."
"I didn't need technology to bring you guys here."
"Your disgusting power is taken from technology!" Austin argued.
"Regardless, sir! we should infiltrate key fortresses, bases, or planes like this one to acquire more technology."
"I don't think that would be wise, Austin. The reason we can infiltrate this is that we blame it on Australia or the WGP. As for the WGP, they'd think that this was something the SPU did. Our goal is to take what we can but ensure our secrecy on this matter." The woman argued.
"Miss Irvana is so strict." Austin sighed.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Haha." The tall man laughed.
"Just be contented with what you can get now, Austin. Besides, you'd probably be surprised at what technologies we will face down there."
"Of course. It's the WGP!"
"No. I'm not talking about them. You see, no one knows that I am the Wind seed that the Progenitor left behind. Others, who are my peers, would think that the inheritance has been lost. And to protect the identity of the Progenitor, they may try to acquire it. It could be out of selfishness, or it could be from the loyalty they have with the Progenitor."
"So people like you will be down there, Father?" Irvana asked.
"Perhaps people stronger than me. Regardless, we go as planned. Once you're done with the download, you can make the plane crash down the Kraken."
"We're already headed down, sir!" The man who was currently on the pilot seat shouted. Oddly enough, though the windshields on the cockpit were wide open, the wind did not enter.
"What?! Alvin?! What are you doing?! I'm not yet done downloading!"
"We haven't even made any strategies!" The woman called Ivana cried angrily as well.
"Continue with your course, Alvin." The man laughed.
"Father!" Irvana cried.
"Sir!" Austin also pleaded.
"Crash landing on Kraken in five minutes!"
"There is no need for us to make any plans. I'm sure you've noticed it now, dear daughter. The strange fluctuations. Is that why you're so keen on making plans?" Grant Hermes gave a wild laugh.
"How many are there?" Grant Hermes asked excitedly.
"About five. I don't know. What's going on? I've never felt it before? Why now?"
"You don't quite understand us, dear daughter. The fluctuations you feel and the sense of danger is now appearing because we are about to battle. I don't hide it anymore. And they most definitely don't need to as well. And the reason why you can sense it now is that it's tied to their emotions. You could always sense emotions and gauge our enemy's power. This is the height of their pride. Their excitement for battle draws near!" Grant laughed.
"So why won't we make any plans?"
"Because at this point, it is pointless to make any! Who knows who we will meet down there? Who knows what they plan to do?"
"But wouldn't this rival of yours, Lennox... Would he make plans, Father?"
Grant Hermes laughed.
"Trying to agitate me?"
"Wouldn't your recent defeat make you worry?"
"I wouldn't say that was a defeat. He didn't get what he wanted. I managed to understand his plan along the way. Me and Lennox were two opposite poles. He is as accurate as a lightning bolt hitting a metal pole, while I am as free and random as the wind. A free spirit that roams this earth."
"Sir! I think, I just detected several missiles locked on to this plane. They should be arming it up now."
"Perfect. Then it means it will hit us within less than a minute. So it looks like we'd have to abandon ship now."
"Really, Sir? That's for boats." One of the other soldiers commented.
"Whatever, Randy." Hermes rolled his eyes.
"Let's go!" With a wave of his hands, the right side of the plane suddenly exploded as a square-shaped cut appeared. Everyone was immediately sucked out by the wind.
"Sir! I'm not yet done downloading!" The flailing cries of Austin were heard as they were thrown off along with the computer that Austin was on.
"There. Are you happy?" Hermes laughed as they continued to free fall alongside the plane.
"That's not the point, sir!" Austin screamed.
Meanwhile, back on the Kraken…
The Emperor made the Rule retreat back.
"Why are you retreating?"
"I fought a single soldier, and he managed to damage me. I won't take any chances. He has more of his companions with him now. Fighting all of them would mean that I would have to go all out. Bad for the Kraken. Empress… Should you invoke the call?"
"No. The Kraken hasn't detected it yet, but I could sense several signals approaching. They are taking advantage of the disabled sector of the Kraken. A blind spot that allows them to enter."
"Then why haven't you used it yet?"
"It's part of the enemy's plan. How far have they infiltrated our ranks? Do they know of the Invoking? Do they know of the secret of the Kraken?"
"You want to lure everyone here first?"
"Yes. That way, we can kill them and the nations that are taking advantage of our momentary defeat."
"What do we do for now?"
"Our jobs as protectors. What are the techs they have?"
"Super-human tech. It was as if he had no weapons or metals around him. Perhaps it's similar to those Dawn Soldiers. They appeared to have the ability to heat up their bodies. It's like their mutants with superpowers."
"Oh? Then they're only at that level."
"I don't know. That enemy I had was able to redirect and fool my own attacks back at me."
"Then it might be that they have cybernetically enhanced perceptions."
"If it is that, then they have something that can surpass my sensors. I couldn't see any such technology in that person's body."
"Alright. Send the report. For now, we have to take this seriously. Use your Invoking."
"I was about to suggest that. With this, we wouldn't need your Invoking. If I use my Invoking, wouldn't it be almost impossible for these traitors to use the Kraken against us?"
"Not unless you are that traitor." The Empress answered stoically.
A great sense of dread rushed over the Emperor. They did not use video communication, so he didn't know what the expression of the Empress was.
"I would never…"
"I didn't mean that. What if they have a way of high-jacking your Invoking?"
We'll reserve your invoking for later."
"Our first priority is to get rid of the intruders inside the base. I've already ordered some to review the CCTV feeds inside of the Kraken. They should be able to pinpoint where those intruders are. Once you complete the summoning, take half and eliminate the threats outside the base while the other half kills those inside the base."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Alright." The Emperor had a stern expression.
The World Governing Powers had several influential individuals. The latter were trained since childhood to be capable of having the skills to man and use the various technologies of the world. They called these soldiers as the Elites of the World. Each Elite is trained to the extreme. These Elites secretly clashed with the various task force and secret services all over the world and had always been on the winning sight. Yet their powers and capabilities couldn't even match one-fifth of what an Emperor could do.
The Emperor's privilege, known as the Invoking, allows them to access the most advanced technology known to man.
"I invoke my right as an Emperor of the World. I beseech the Kingdom to heed my request." The voice the Emperor rang out as the Rule that he sat on started to glow with a strange hue.
Aurora started to appear on the dark stormy skies above them.
Gardo saw it from a distance and could not help but sigh.
"An Emperor's Invoking. They are that serious in trying to kill us." Gardo laughed.
Cliff, who had heard of Gardo's description before the attack, also gripped his fist. Who knew what horrors awaited them?
The aurora that appeared over them wasn't a natural one. As the Origin science of the WGP improved, they had created means of communicating that simply bypassed and was unhindered by any forms of distortion. No science could block or hinder when the WGP used their unworldly technology to its fullest.
An Invoking had happened several times in history. When various covert countries teamed up and tried to attack the Elites that guarded the metal discovered in the arctic regions, several Elites were killed. The Emperor, who was their leader, became so angry that it used an Invoking.
The world soon knew of its power.
Call of Chimera was the weapon that became the world's grim reminder of who the world's emperors are. From then on, no organization or government dared to trifle with the WGP.
The aurora quickly moved around the world, garnering the attention of many. It appeared all across the globe. The science of Origin power was not something contained or kept in one building or facility. It was allowed to roam the world. And so, at the Invoking, various skies turned transformed and created the fantastic scene before them.
Cities around the world noticed it and were shocked at the sight of the growing brightness that lit up the sky.
Over the Kraken, the once dark clouds were now bright with lights. Several figures could be discerned at the sky as various aircrafts hovered over the area.
The Kraken roared with life as it began to attack the crafts that were approaching. The Origin power that came from the aurora brought life to the dormant state of the and various defense mechanisms and scanners that couldn't function functioned once more.
The aurora started to gather around the Rule of the Emperor.
"Call of Automaton!"
The aurora that was compressing on the Rule exploded spread enveloped the Kraken.
Cliff and Gardo stopped at the aurora that fell around them. Strangely enough, the Kraken's metal absorbed the aurora, and the once black steel that where Cliff and Gardo stood now had a strange glow.
The turrets, mortars, and other weapons that were shooting up suddenly moved and aimed at where Cliff and Gardo's team were standing.
Several rockets that were racing towards the sky suddenly arced about and were headed towards Cliff and Gardo's location.
"What the!? It found us?!" The man Gardo called Archie panicked.
"Not just us. Even the guests wanting to enter this party are all detected. The aurora is giving us away." Gardo frowned.
"So, this is the power of Origin force." Cliff gazed at the coming volleys of rockets.
"Forget the Overcomers. The WGP alone can already kill us." Cliff sighed.
The Kraken launched various attacks and shot down multiple ships and aircraft.
Even the ships and planes that were out of the agreed borders of the Kraken were also targeted.
Various laws and limitations were made to ensure that the Kraken cannot interfere with the affairs of the nations around them. Of course, the countries cannot freely enter and exit the borders around the Kraken. But the WGP had long warned the world that the limits would double in size in times of war. Anyone or anything within those borders will be attacked immediately. It would no longer leave anyone alive and would aim to kill all.
The Origin power magnified and capabilities of the Kraken.
"Release the Kraken!" The Emperor laughed wildly as he commanded the Kraken to launch its wild attacks.
