Chapter 297: Eye of the Needle

The smoke and fire hid him, and with the escape of the disk-shaped vessel, the army got distracted and focused their attention on it.

The past three weeks have been busy for the Unlocked. They had an Atlantis and a Kraken, which had now combined and became the Leviathan created a unified chamber for experiments.

Lennox was quick to work as he immediately uploaded the protocols of his creation to the Leviathan. Meng gave the data of his team, and Harker also did the same.

The additions of new techs didn't end there. Grant Hermes also provided Canadian Frost. Amir Mann also shared his experiments and commanded various families also to offer up their techs.

The lone soldier employed a manifestation of stealth technology that the various scientist was able to derive from Irvana. With the science that Meng was able to provide on how to mix cells into various metals, the Exoskeletons they created had a tech that surpassed the Guerilla techs of SPU.

But the mix's limitations made this Exoskeleton a suit that would emit a strange fluctuation that could only be seen if ultraviolet detecting scanners are used.

But the huge explosion left strange rays that covered this Exoskeleton.

The pilot was cranky and angry. While his friends attributed it to the fact that he hasn't seen his girlfriend in three weeks, there was a far more nefarious reason why he was.

The armies quickly approached, and finally, he began to move.

The first one to struck was the pilot of an Armor about to shoot its rockets to the disk-shaped aircraft.

The attacks created no gunshots or explosions but a powerful needle materialized and pierced through the suit that even stabbed the pilot.

The attack caused the pilot to move his Armor and bump into the nearby Exoskeletons, and the missile he fired shot towards the large flying serpent.

BOOM!

The attack caused great alarm. While the rocket could not penetrate and breach the serpent, several nearby Exoskeletons were engulfed on the attack.

"What happened?" One of the Generals suddenly exclaimed.

"Sir! One of the Armors was attacked, and the pilot is dead! The pilot died just moments before it launched the rockets!"

"What attack killed him? Our scanners couldn't detect anything!" Another General questioned.

"Generals. To our position. It seems the battle is here." One of the Generals moved, and the Naga's Heart began to move and transform to bring the respective Generals to their own Command centers.

Only one General remained at the bridge of the ship and sent a series of orders.

The large Serpentine ship opened several ports and began to fire rockets. But then…

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The rockets veered off course and killed the nearby soldiers.

In the disk-shaped aircraft, Tyler and Scribbs were laughing so hard that they were slamming the desk.

"What…? What's going on?" The former WGP Commanders watched with a bizarre expression.

"How strong. He even managed to do Chaos Order." Titan took a peek at the monitor and went back to his game.

"How close is he to Chaos Order?" Dara asked John.

John took a loot at the screen and observed it for a few seconds.

"His aim and movements are just like the boss. It's like an exact copy of the boss's movements on our training sessions."

The newly unlocked soldiers of the WGP watched in horror and amazement at how the soldiers were shooting off each other.

"Wow. He can even do your trick, Titan!" Danny laughed.

"He's actually better…" Titan sighed.

The SPU soldiers were panicking as they couldn't see the attacker. With the sudden attacks from the King Naga, some even believed that there were traitors on the ship.

"All soldiers, hold your fire! Hold your fire!" The Commanders and Generals in the King Naga gave their order. The explosions and attacks were causing an entire army to plummet into chaos.

"Amazing…" Earl praised as he zoomed in to see the battle.

"We could have done that with an entire team. But now, the General is doing it alone!"

Suddenly, several SPU soldiers began to shoot at a certain location. Soon, the group began to attack as if it could see an invisible enemy.

"Looks like they discovered that the ultraviolet sensors could detect the suit." Earl narrated.

The army of SPU soldiers was now synching with the vision of the serpent. They could see what the serpent could see. With a complicated algorithm, the soldier's view would be replicated by the system perfectly and even displayed in a three-dimensional format.

As such, all the soldiers could see the attacker's location even if their Exoskeletons didn't have the capacity to the ultraviolet lights.

The barrage of a full army lit the sky as it attempted to deal with the immediate enemy.

"The General is in danger!" One of the former WGP soldiers exclaimed.

"We have to help the General!" Another added.

"Relax! You guys! That General down there is an Inhuman. And an Inhuman with a legit Path! I thought you were all thought that an Unlocked with a fully developed and useable Skill has the potential to kill a squad of Unlocked! That little thing isn't something that can kill the General!"

"An army is shooting after it! How can that be a little thing?!" One of the Unlock cursed out.

"I'd rather have an SPU army shoot at me than stand in front of an Overcomer." Earl laughed.

"What?"

"This is what you guys need. Actual experience. You see, at this point, our victory over the Kraken and the Atlantis seemed to have neem achieved through plots and trickery. And while that is true, it was because we have the skills to back it up. But the issue is, telling you what we are capable of is not effective. You have your pride. This little joint crusade of ours is for you to see the true power of the Unlocked. If we have some of the best soldiers see it firsthand, then you could tell your other friends what exactly you saw." John explained.

"Yeah. If we told you ourselves that running towards an army is possible, you wouldn't believe it. You'd underestimate just how strong an Unbecoming is compared to a human. But now, you get to see the higher heights of the Unlocking in action. General won't fail, nor will he get hit. It's all according to plan. He has Chaos Order, after all. It should start anytime soon." Danny added.

"What should start?"

"Arthur taught me that in order for my trick to work, I'd have to make the enemy confident in shooting." Titan was the one who explained.

"The General is making the enemy think that they can shoot without any consequences. And when they're at a trigger-happy moment, he begins his attack."

As if right on queue, the General fighting the army suddenly began to shoot. He used the same sound bullets earlier to attack the rockets that the King Naga shot out.

It didn't have any penetrating power, but the force behind it could throw off and redirect even a rocket at full throttle.

These small sound bullets shot at the various soldiers, and it all happened. The sudden redirection of their arm, their aim, and the launched rockets created chaos. Soldiers ended up shooting each other, Exoskeleton flying and whirling out of control, hitting others and causing even more chaos.

The cause of this chaos saw the entire fleet before him. But at the same time, he was also immersed in his memories. Two weeks' worth of mathematical studies and training came to view. The practices and mock battles pitted the pilot against armies in all forms of scenarios. Underwater battles, aerial battles, ground, land, mixed battles- everything that he trained for were surfacing, and his memories could even bring out more memories at the same time.

His body copied the precise movements that followed the exact theoretical actions that he should do.

A massacre was made though he didn't shoot to kill.

"Tyler. Begin your attacks in thirty seconds. I should have a shot in infiltrating this ship." The General contacted Tyler.

"Aye Aye, General," Tyler answered.

The newbies kept looking at the screen and were amazed at the power.

"This is a Skill?" The former WGP wondered.

"No. That is a Path."

"What's his Path?"

"Memory. The way he recalls is vastly different from us." Dara explained. Her heart was beating so fast when she saw the chaos that their General brought.

"Memory? That's it?!"

"Yup. To think such a strange ability could create such havoc. But that's the truth. Right now, he doesn't have an official Heroes Rank and title, though."

"I'd put him above Alean but below Lowengren." Danny guessed.

"Your list is too wrong. The Thief in the Night better than General Alean? Please. Don't underestimate her!" Scribbs laughed.

"You're just loyal to the Cipril family. You even put General Harker on that list! He isn't even Ranked yet!" Danny argued.

"What's the winning vote for his Ranked Heroes title?" Dara asked Titan.

"Using memory, he is capable of challenging impossible odds and scenarios. That training session with Typical was proof of it. I heard the boss didn't want his title to be similar to his, so they decided to look for another reference in the Bible. I'm not sure what it is now. Haven't checked on that email thread."

"The Lion's Den is the bosses. No one should have a similar title to his! Besides, the boss is definitely an Overcomer! He just hasn't the chance to fight!" Danny asserted.

"I'm checking it now. Unless He Who Remembers Win, the winning title would be General Cliff Fangwood, He Who Treads Through the Eye of the Needle."

"The Eye of Needle…" The former WGP Commander repeated as he watched the battle.

Scribbs began to launch several attacks using the various techs that the ship was equipped with.

The attacks couldn't be detected. Armors and Exoskeletons were suddenly attacked by some invisible needle or were melted as they were caught in the greenish explosion of a horn-shaped metal.

The chaos erupted all the more as more Exoskeletons were deployed.

The large serpentine ship had several docks that opened, and many Armors, Exoskeletons, and Jets began to fly out.

"Jets?" Dara was confused.

"We haven't seen those since the Third World War. It looks like this one should have powerful techs if the SPU dares use it in this battle!" One of the newbies exclaimed.

BOOM!

Several jets immediately exploded as they crashed with each other due to the attacks of the lone General.

"Then again, maybe not…" Earl laughed.

"Covenant, you're up," Tyler ordered.

"Best two out of three, later?" John asked Titan.

"Sure," Titan answered as they stopped playing. Their respective cubicles suddenly became an enclosed pods, and they were already wearing their Exoskeletons.

"Alright. Danny, you take the lead." John gave his directions.

"Titan, you're with me. I'll draw their attention, and you attack them. Dara, draw the argo of the enemy from John so he can make a clean shot. Leave the Exoskeletons and jets to me. Once General Cliff gives us the signal, we breach the King Naga. Tyler, take care of the newbies. Earl, you're up to when the sun appears."

The group was immediately shot out of the ship as the floor beneath them gave way.

Four Exoskeletons raced through the skies.

"John… Keep one of those bays open!" Danny ordered.

The sudden appearance of more Exoskeletons that began to massacre the group caused the SPU to duplicate the visuals. One half used the ultraviolet detecting scanner that allowed the SPU soldiers to see the rampaging General Cliff, and the others used normal sight to see the other Exoskeleton.

Dara's Exoskeleton ran straight to the enemies ignoring the incoming barrage.

As the barrage approached, her suit exploded out as if struck.

But Dara kept jumping from one piece of her suit to the other.

She kept jumping, and a small pile bunker appeared on her right hand as she jumped and punched an Armor right at the chest. The force of her punch and the pile bunker killed the pilot instantly.

Her other suits reformed right in the middle of the formation of several Exoskeletons.

These Armors' jet-speed didn't bother Dara, who only wore a small part of her Exoskeletons as she moved to dismantle another Armor.

Danny was spinning like a top and began to slice through the blockades. Danny's speed was the fastest among the group as it could create a powerful boost that shot itself several kilometers in almost an instant.

John Octavion III kept sniping from afar and aimed for the nearby large transports.

And as the chaos continued, Titan reached the very center of the battle and released a small orb.

In that exact moment, John Octavion III aimed at the opening nearly ten kilometers away from where he was.

BOOM! BANG!

Almost simultaneously, a Pangean Everbright exploded and brightened the skies as John shot around towards one of the launching pads of the King Naga.

A railgun bullet shot with incredible speeds that immediately crossed the distance. The bullet utilized the dimension-breaking ability of the Void Assassin. While it couldn't teleport just like the Void Assassin, Lennox was able to find a means and a working calculation of allowing inorganic objects to speed up the movement.

The scientific studies that Lennox showed combined with the mysterious Realm science of the Realm King allowed bullets to travel at shocking speeds.

The bullet crossed the distance as it traveled through compressed space.

BOOM!

The explosion damaged the gate that was supposed to close. And this momentary pause allowed an invisible invader to move in.

Earl also dropped out of their ship and joined the battle.
