Chapter 289: Owens Shedd

Lennox was slowly controlling the entire energy of the base. As such, the electric energies were moving and diving into the depths of the restricted areas and scanned for all the weapons.

"It would be a shame to destroy all these long-ranged rockets. Too bad there are no weapons of Mass destruction here." LennoxV2.3 sighed.

"This is just a region fort designed to repel possible invaders after all. I doubt we can find better weapons. You don't want Dune Technology?"

"While it has its uses, I think it would be detrimental. Since most of our battles will center in the so-called Cradle of Civilization, the many nations involved will make specific preparations for Dune Tech. We'll see what we can do. I'm sure that my Main body will gain a lot after meeting with Seeker. For now, my focus is on Egypt and creating a team for the Tyrant Empress."

"Oh. Is there any worthwhile technology in this base? I'm sure Dune Tech has many other uses."

"Yes… Surprisingly there is one that piques interest. It's the technology that is used to control the sandstorm. It uses magnetic and electric pulses. It's very interesting. I think with this. I can create specific electric points in a person's body and control them."

"Wait… Mind control?"

"More like electric control. My lighting isn't just simple codes, you know."

"So sort of like create a human puppet? Interesting. You plan to create Frankenstein?"

"Frankenstein's Monster." Lennox corrected.

"Every time I say it!" Lowengren cursed as this had been a common correction he received by snarky know-it-alls.

"I know he's Frankenstein monster! But saying that is longer! That character has no official name, so either we call it that, or I'm naming it Arthur My Humps!"

"… Yes. I plan to create Frankenstein." Lennox acceded and used Frankenstein instead.

"Are you aiming for Flantter to be Frankenstein? Wouldn't that be risky?"

"No. With him as a spy, it will be interesting. We can kill him without killing him, you know? There is hope that the Tyrant Empress could kill a person without even hurting him. If this man dies from seeing the Tyrant Empress, I could use his fresh body and make him Frankenstein's Mo- Frankenstein. The Tyrant Empress should have this capability."

"Betting on an Overcomer. The best bet one can make. Alright. You go ahead and do what you do. Do you have enough power to maintain this suit? I'm sure Alean wants to get out of here as soon as possible. I'm not yet done playing with Magantae yet. I plan to enter the Caliphates with her."

"Do whatever you want. But you don't have a suit. I advise against showing the power of your physique and Unlocking."

"Don't worry. Magantae and her team will save me. Just play along with whatever happens. I'm betting on Alean's Path. I'll be taking Salathiel with me."

"He is yours to Command." Lennox explained as the Exoskeleton suit Lowengren was wearing opened up.

Lowengren emerged from the suit and wore the same mask he had worn when he first met Magantae.

"There is a certain pod within the Heart of Atlantis that seems to contain a backup of its database along with several weapons. I'll prepare it for your departure. That way, your infiltration to the Caliphates will give you enough weapons to complete it. I've also taken the liberty to add several sodas. The WGP houses several flavors, which are the ones that you like." Lennox spoke.

"?" Lowengren was confused. Why was this Lennox so… thoughtful?

"It's part of my Programming. Don't ask." Lennox explained.

Lowengren shook his head and moved on. A part of him wanted to get away from this Lennox, after all.

The outside of the power plants had powerful thunderous explosions and broadcasts happening left and right.

The Behemoth had positioned itself on top of the base with a strange form of a large beast standing over the buildings and warily watched the skies.

The battle between the WGP and the Lost Primordial had grown extremely intense that the many soldiers feared participating in this clash.

But what was scary wasn't the Nuke Emitter but the powerful greenish explosion that produced far deadlier radiation than the Nuke Emitter itself.

On the ground, the WGP had surfaced again and began to kill.

Magantae had used their link and their deceptive mirage to silently kill soldiers. The WGP kept staying on regions that were attacked by the Lightning and had low power to avoid getting detected. The techs they used to kill varied.

And so, soldiers were being killed. Some Exoskeletons were attacked, and the point of attack couldn't be detected.

Soon, even an Armor fell.

"They're after the command center! Emphasize our soldiers to maintain positions and guard three regions! Don't let them scatter!"

"Sir, why not make them defend this place?"

"That will make it obvious that we are here! We don't know when the WGP or that Lost Primordial will attack us. This is why the WGP is secretly killing our soldiers in different places and not recklessly charging through even though they can! They are looking for the headquarters!" Owens explained. Hiding the Command Center was one of the most important strategies to consider as the world has the techs to attack it. And Owens continued on this façade.

Lowengren had just entered this room and could not help but praise Owens.

After leaving Lennox, he wore the attire of the soldiers and moved among the group. With his lies, he managed to enter the command center once more. Lennox, who was slowly taking over the system, opened the doors that made Lowengren reach the place safely. The command center was in chaos. While the Commander and his top officers were in the upper room and were relatively peaceful, the lower levels of this large room had soldiers moving in and out.

Lowengren had positioned himself on an empty chair with several prepared lies about the power plant and for several tweaks, he needed to do in the main control room. The details he spoke off, which Lennox explained to him, were perfect.

"Now, let's see what Flantter will do. And let's see the skill of this Owens." Lowengren pretended to work. After ascertaining his identity, the soldiers around him went back to do their respective tasks.

BOOM!

"Sir! A Lost Primordial's attack reached the eastern buildings! We're losing power as the power supply from that quadrant cannot supply the main base!"

"Use the primary power plants! Get the Behemoth to protect that area. We have to wait it out! If we cannot defeat the enemy, we stall as long as we can and make the world learn of this battle! The Commanders might believe me now and should be dealing with Commander Chershel! But I'm sure that the Satellites we have been monitoring this battle! We stay as much as we can!"

"Satellites? They'd need General Barak's permission to do that!"

"Not anymore. Those Commanders will inform the Caliphs, and a coup d'etat will follow! Regardless if we live or die, the Caliphates will know of Barak's betrayal! So keep fighting, men! Hold on!" Owens ordered.

And as the battle progressed and the soldiers began to arrange in a defensive formation, it finally gave the WGP the opening they needed.

"The soldiers have left the medical facility!" One of the Commanders reported.

"Move now! Deploy the fake death signals so as not to raise suspicions and rendezvous at the medical facility!" Magantae ordered. The wound on her stomach was aching as her movements caused the wounds to open once more. But she gritted her teeth and forced herself to bear the pain.

The WGP groups immediately disconnected the link by making it look like they died. In all the chaos and the ongoing battle, no one had time to confirm the deaths as everyone was moving to make preparations.

Magantae and the Commanders hastily traveled towards the area and even used powerful booster techs, which caused them to rush towards the area.

"Sir! All the WGP units have been detected! They are headed towards the attacked location!"

"Fire the Gehanna Piercers towards that location immediately!"

"Belay that order! If you want to defeat the WGP and that strange Exoskeleton, follow my orders!" A new transmission was received.

General Joab Barak appeared on multiple screens on the base.

"Joab Barak! You finally showed yourself!" Owens shouted.

"Owens Shedd. There has been some bad blood between us! But the Caliphates is at risk-"

"Shut up! I have figured out your wicked schemes. How was it that you managed to assign Planted among us? Who is that Presider that you serve? And where is the Planted who betrayed you?" Owens shouted.

Joab Barak was surprised at what he heard.

"And here's the thing! I figured out how to trigger those bombs! I've already reported it on all nearby bases! The Commanders are all doing their tests and might have captured and killed all the Planteds! Your little scheme has been revealed!"

Pioneer Flantter was stunned at those words. If that were true, then that means the identity of the Aragarians would be revealed. This was the biggest taboo that everyone wanted to avoid. Regardless of how selfish each Presider was, there were no benefits that could outweigh the risk of revealing this information.

"Relax. It's part of our plan. We've long known that many Presiders have been trying to send their spies in. What Owens knows is a trick. Only Planteds who aren't loyal to Presider Pridgeon would be captured. The rest are safe. This is our plan, after all. This way, Presider Crostfree wouldn't have his spies in this region." Lowengren laughed.

He immediately spoke to Flantter in a secluded place as everyone was stunned to see Flantter appear.

"I see…" Flantter sighed in relief.

"Attack him now!" Owens ordered, and the entire army began to shoot at Flantter.

"My power is slowly infiltrating and drawing energy on the other quadrants of this base. Keep stalling. Try to find that General Vender and kill him. Use whatever means necessary. Presider Pridgeon no longer needs that spy from Presider Crostfree. Have a good fight. Presider Pridgeon is watching." Lowengren laughed.

"I understand." Flantter began to move and activated the might of his supreme Exoskeleton.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Several sonic bombs were created as Flantter charged towards the area. His suit didn't even need acceleration as it immediately reached max speed.

Flantter immediately evaded all the attacks and began to shoot various powerful energy beams.

All Exoskeletons that had flight equipped all charged to the sky.

Many of these Exoskeletons revealed large shields and large cannons on their other hand and began to attack.

"Owens Shedd! Since you have betrayed the Caliphates, I'll show you why I am General!" Flantter moved and didn't hide the techs he was equipped with. He estimated that the entire Caliphates would lose more than half of the Planteds. And so he feared getting tossed aside by Pridgeon.

Flantter attacked and shot the Armors and Exoskeletons. Even the thick and large Armors would be pierced through by Flantter's powerful beams. The shields of the regular Exoskeletons were of no use.

"What?! That's a Supreme Exoskeleton!" Owens shouted in shock. Only the WGP and Russia had such powerful technology.

Flantter, however, was very impatient during the fight. He could not detect where the headquarters was. And the enigmatic Phallus didn't tell him where.

"This must be a test! I must save the Gehanna Piercer for later!"

The Gehanna Piercer was placed on the ground to avoid getting noticed and attacked during this time.

"Once I find that base and where that General Vender is, I'll swoop back in to get that Gehanna Piercer and kill them all at once!"

Owens on the base began to give out orders to counter the techs that Flantter was revealing.

The Behemoth was now busy attacking Flantter, and Flantter kept evading the Behemoth's attacks and didn't even bother shooting it.

Lowengren observed the battle and figured that Flantter knew his tech wasn't enough to break through the Dune and sandstorms of the sand golem.

"Enlarge the sandstorm of Dune! I want all power up! Activate all protocols and create four Sandstorms on these locations!" Owens listed the location.

"Sir, what about the Gehanna Piercer?"

"No! Not yet! That man was able to capture one Gehanna Piercer. Firing another could be reckless! Now that General Barak has shown himself, we use that once we create the perfect opportunity!

Owens then began to rearrange the formation of the soldiers according to their weaponry and techs.

Lowengren was impressed at Owens' decisions and countermeasures and all the more admired this man.

"Even in this scenario, he can think. He's not like those trigger-happy Generals. He's even better than that Garland of Australia. Why is his position so low? Isn't this man a hero?" Lowengren wondered as he recalled Owens conversation with General Vender Hirock.

"Why haven't I fought this man in my games? Did Flantter destroy Owens's reputation? He'll make a fine addition to my team. I must save him! Lennox? Did you hear me? Is that attack ready? Make sure that you don't kill that Owens! If possible, I want his entire team!"

"That can be arranged. Use whatever lies to make them retreat to the eastern side. The WGP is rushing out with the metallic cube you've hidden. I will time my attacks and link with the electric charge of that cube with the electric charges this base will release."

"What about the sandstorm? The Lightning won't be able to course through this place with that in place wildly."

"Relax. I have a few prototypes of those Repent Bombs that Richie have."

"Repent bombs?"

It's a prototype attack of Richie. It seems to be his next-generation bomb. This one is rather loud. It will push the sands just long enough to allow the attacks to reach the heavens. Alean and Salathiel are also getting ready."

"Good! Let's end this!"
