Chapter 20

A Legend Begins

The Camarilla was in shambles, the right wing was burnt, melted, and everything that made it the giant ship a majestic creation was now in the trash.

It was only able to stay in the air because of the effects of the Caterpillar Line on the base of the ship.

Hoverstones really are useful at these circumstances that’s why it was a standard requirement whenever a designing a ship. There were a lot of useful uses for the Hoverstones except for warship bases. 

For example, advanced users use Hoverstones in their weapons to boost their attack and/or minimize its weapon unit (we). 

In exchange for the trouble of finding the mineral and spending a minimum of Z10M for the right to use an officially announced one of the protected resources.

At this regard, the Camarilla who had a whole level dedicated for the caterpillar was like a large snail with multiple cannons. Smokes were coming out of the right wing as its melted parts were meshed together like liquid plastic.

Though the main thrusters behind were okay, the balance and weight distribution on the body and the wings were all messed up to the point that they’ve even decided to just cut both wings off.

“Do it!” Ordered Elsass and the operator’s trembling hand reached for the console and dialed an emergency number. 

At the next moment, both of the wings with all its components, were detached itself from the main body of the Camarilla. Still, [Ship balance dropped by 45% sir. Main thrusters are online sir. Initiating side thruster engines.]

“Minimize the use of the side thrusters! We can’t risk losing them too!”

[Aye captain!]

“Order all the troops to deploy in maximum assault formation! Safari, Hyperion, Piranha, Asakura, initiate defensive formation-T. Counter attack using Cyclones and do whatever you can to bring those ships down!”

[Sir! Heat signature detected! Prontera-class warship equipped with four Tomahawk missile pods and Flamer directional cannons! It’s coming from the Taal Range’s edges! Its an underground facility! Distance is 120km north-northeast! It’s leaving the battlefield sir!]

“Darn these fools! They know they’re losing so they escape! I won’t let them! Order the Cyclone second fleet to follow them! Don’t let them escape!”

[Incoming message from the Mooran HQ!]

“Mooran HQ?! Che! Patch it through.”

A blink changed the main monitor’s view from the war to the face of commander Matsuri. His expression was calm with his hands on his back and wearing an aura of dignity and elegance with his cape and time woven face.

[Been a long time, master Elsass.]

“Coward! You know you’re losing and are trying to escape shame by fleeing the battlefield! You are not worthy of being called a Power!”

[You are mistaken, if you think that the ship that left this base had me in it. It was simply just a guest that I let escape.]

“Hmp. You think such a lie would actually hit me on the head? I will take my revenge.” Elsass sat down on his chair and motioned to press a button when Matsuri spoke that made him pause.

[I did not order any attack on you, Elsass, you know it and you still do this.]

“YOU…!! YOU MADE THEM QUIT! THEY’RE THE FIRST FRIENDS I MADE IN YEARS AND YOU EVEN CAUSED ME TO…TO…I WILL NOT HEAR YOUR LIES! TODAY YOU SHALL FACE THE SHAME YOU HAVE PUT INTO THE TITANS AND THIS WILL MARK THE DAY THAT OUR NAMES SHALL BE ANGRAVED IN HISTORY!”
