Chapter 171 – Missiles!

Anutin got annoyed by the repeated call by his father.

"I know, pops. What's the rush? I said two hours."

[Change of plans. Mafdet City is under attack, and we're about to be overrun by monsters. Nuke both this city and Shelter 88 at once, or you'll be attacked by fire ants and the three-headed hydra!]

"What monster?"

[Fire ants! One of the otherworlders is siding with Shelter 88, and he is controlling these monsters!]

"…"

Anutin was astonished. Although he knew that his father could control a hydra or two, but controlling a three-headed hydra and fire ants was something unbelievable.

He also got scared by the discovery. If Shelter 88 expanded their influence, his shelter would be affected.

Since this was urgent, Anutin contacted his boss to rush his progress. At the moment, they had already threatened Sebastian and his followers, but they did not think that Shelter 88 would surrender that easily.

"Boss, please attack Shelter 88, now!"

Newin, the castellan of Shelter 87, was monitoring his missiles. When he heard the transmission from his right-hand man, Newin's mood got better.

"Give me a minute. I'm rushing the firing sequence. What's the hurry?"

"Sebastian is manipulating a monster army to attack Mafdet City! Their defense forces should be thinned."

"Oh? Interesting. Should I shoot both my missiles at Shelter 88 at once?"

"Yes, please. I'll handle their ion cannons somehow. Just fire both of them at the same time."

"Good. I want to nuke that base for a long time!"

Anutin immediately reported this to Prayut, so he could disable the satellites. Within the next ten seconds, two ion cannons of Crystal would shoot these warheads down, so Prayut had to be fast.

However, Prayut did not reply. His voice disappeared as if he was busy with something.

30 seconds after his contact attempt, Anutin sensed that something was wrong with Prayut's psionic link.

After Prayut had ordered Anutin, he turned his attention to Mia, whose mech swung a lightning sword at him.

He parried the sword with his lightsaber.

With a free hand, Prayut cast Blast on Mia.

Mia's triple-layered barrier got thinned as two layers got broken. The cannon's force sent him flying backward.

Mia summoned five more flying thunder swords and launched them at Prayut.

At the same time, Mia rushed at the crippled Prometheus again.

Prayut recast his barrier dome, but it could not shield a thunder sword.

All five swords pierced Prayut's robot. One of them got through his cockpit and destroyed the operating modules.

"NOOO!!"

Prayut had not activated the hacking program yet, but the console was already destroyed.

He would not be able to hack the satellites!

While Prayut was panicked, Mia's Prometheus touched his opponent's robot.


For the first time, Mia used his new skill.

Geokinesis: Terraform

It was a similar skill that Sebastian had. This skill could alter material objects, change their attributes, bending, or distorting their structure. However, it could only apply to natural minerals, such as ores and earth soil.

Mia tried it on Prometheus if he could destroy its frames and modules.

With one touch, bending metal sound rang as all metal components of Prayut's robot were twisted and cracked. Its tall figure distorted and revealed Prayut inside the cockpit.

Mia grinned as he sent a bolt of chain lightning, aiming directly at the overmind pilot.

"AHHHHHH!!!"

The 1,000 degrees Celsius thunder burnt Prayut to charcoal, ending this historical figure's life.

However, Prayut's overmind soul was still intact. His psionic possession skill activated as Prayut's soul tried to steal a body of an inferno ant.

Mia sensed the fluctuation of the psionic wave. He activated his psionic link onto the fleeing soul, dragging him and his soul core into his mind space again.

"Get over here!"

The Prayut's crippled soul reappeared in Mia's red wasteland. The grotesque Yggdrasil with human limbs as branches awaited.

Bloody humanoids emerged from the red swamp. They grabbed Prayut's legless soul and bit him as if they were hungry zombies.

Prayut gathered his strength to disperse these monsters.

*BOOM*

The blood monsters exploded from the burst impact.

Prayut's soul landed on the wet floor, but his body had cracks and missing parts from the bites.

*PU*

A red tree root punctured through Prayut's head.

*PU*

*PU*

*PU*

Sharp tree roots entered the overmind's torso.

Like how a monster tree on the wasteland ate its prey, the red Yggdrasil drained Prayut's life essence from his soul.

Prayut's soul turned into a skinny mummy, but he was still alive.

Mia waved his hand, delivering the finishing blow.

*CLANK*

Prayut's soul shattered into fragments, and Mia devoured all of it.

After digesting the memory fragments, he found interesting information.

Thorn was his son, which he had sent to sabotage Shelter 88!

Also, there was another threat within Shelter 87, Anutin, which was a unique dragonewt like Sebastian.

'A nuclear strike in less than a minute. Fortunately, he hasn't activated the hacking program yet.'

Mia's soul returned, and his conscience got back to his body. He sighed a relief when the system sent confirmation messages.

"… Finally, it's over. Wait, I have to warn Crystal about their plan and Thorn's relationship with this asshole."

The death of Prayut disconnected the psionic link within Anutin's soul, which alarmed him that his father fought against a formidable foe and lost.

'Shit. Has he hacked the satellite before he kicked the bucket?'

The operation was in motion, but the mastermind of the plan was killed.

'Wait, if each ion cannon can only shoot once per a few seconds, can we bait the shots?'

Anutin had an idea. He reported his new strategies to his boss.

"Boss, how many flying mechs and choppers do we have?"

"… About 20 if we include all F35-B and AH-64 we have."

"Can we use them as satellite baits? So, one of our nukes can safely land on that Sebastian's base."

"Ah, I thought of that a long time ago, and I even tested it. All of my mechs were shot down with one hit."

"Was that a charged beam or a pre-charged beam?"

"Is there a difference?"

"Yes. A charged beam has more destructive power that can destroy everything within a wide radius, depending on the power output. But a pre-charged beam can only kill one or two jets and missiles."

The pre-charged beam was as its name, a pre-loaded ion cannon with a default setting to counter all ICBMs. It was set to automatic system, so they could watch over the region 24/7.

The charged beam had to be prepared by an operator on earth, which required a long time to enable the firing sequence. The destructive force of this beam could obliterate their country had they used the maximum output.

It was ideal to possess one of the cannons. However, they did not have a sophisticated radar truck like Crystal. These demi-hydras were also too stupid and too incompetent to hack or steal a satellite from Shelter 88.

Anutin asked, "Did it take a long time before they fired the ion cannon?"

"Come to think of it, they didn't fire the cannons the moment we reached the altitude. We thought they didn't detect us at first, but a beam came five minutes later."

"Then, it's a charged beam that destroyed your men. If it's a pre-charged, it would have killed only one or two robots."

"… I still don't understand. Well, let's go with your plan. Send all flying units to bait for the auto-beams. Guard the missiles!"

"Yes, sir!"

A minute later, five F35-B jets, two AH-64 combat choppers, and 13 robots with flying modules were deployed. All of them flew to over 2,000 height altitude to test the auto-fire ion cannons.

Two missiles were launched afterward, locking on Shelter 88 as their target. They only required 30 seconds to reach the destination as they were only 100km apart.

All of the demi-hydras did not care if the radiation or blast radius would affect them since most of them were bloodthirsty freaks.

They wanted to see the world burn.

*VRRRRRRRRRRRRR*

Loud siren noise from Crystal's radar truck shocked everyone on the surface base. Crystal got on her vehicle to inspect the warning, while the battle crews rushed to their station.

Seth and Brim got to their esper robot. Thorn also entered his cockpit and activated his custom AHMU.

As soon as Crystal saw a missile warning on her radar and the remaining timer, she was shocked.

25 Seconds remaining to impact!

But there were 22 objects in the sky!

The pre-charged ion cannons were already trying to lock on the targets, it would take five more seconds to fire.

However, Crystal satellites could only fire two shots from two cannons.

Pre-charge cannons took 10 seconds to reload and fire another beam. Combined with another firing sequence, they could shoot down four targets from the 22!

Moreover, Crystal did not know if all 22 were the missiles or decoys.

"BRIM, SETH, INTERCEPT THE MISSILES! THEY'RE COMING FROM THE NORTHWEST, 290, 2500 Alt!"

Brim and Seth activated their Prometheus and flew toward the general direction that Crystal said. With their radar, they also spot the incoming hostile units.

20 Seconds remaining until impact!

The two pre-charged ion cannons fired. Two combat jets, which were leading the groups, got shot down.

Three more F35-B planes already got to the ten-kilometer range of Brim and Seth's mech.

However, the three jets already fired their homing missiles at Seth and Brim, creating more targets to confuse Crystal's radar.
