Arriving back at FISHERCOVE, Harvey and his escorts went inside the overwatch base. Harvey plans to stay at the overwatch base to further assess the situation and the ongoing operation, to also conduct proper actions when needed.

He removes his gears and puts them all inside a locker near a bunk bed inside one of the ventilated cave rooms of FISHERCOVE. After he removes all of his gear and weapons, he sits on the lower bed of the bunk bed and sighs in thought.

"What the hell happened there?" he thought as he remembers the sudden tremendous headaches he just felt when he spawned a submarine with many soul-less crews. He opens up again his Hud Systems. A blue square hologram hud spawns in front of him and he selects with his index finger to look upon its Military Development Tab.

*click!*

"Is it because there were too many crews to spawn?" he continues to wonder as he scrolls on his blue hologram hud to look for a manual or some sort.

...

Then, after a few seconds, he stops scrolling as he spots a paragraph mentioning the spawn units that didn't require Souls to spawn.

"Hm? What's this?" he uttered while reading the said paragraph.

" ..." Souls are required for the user to properly summon Definitive Units and the promotion of units embedded in the user's memory and thoughts. Indefinite Units, such as in Military-type vehicles and ships that require quantities of crews, are in don't need of Souls."....Hmm. I see. "

" ... " But in response, the system will overload through its user's thoughts and memory storage to indicate its definitive origin in order for the summoning of the Soul-less crews to accomplish. "

This left Harvey speechless, but at the same time, finally understood the reason for the headaches.

" Uh. So, from what I can understand, the system will go through my memory to search for the exact properties and models of the crews because I just knew some hardly, and they are different from the definitive units that I already know about? Makes sense. I don't really know how to fucking run a submarine. The same from those helicopters. "

Then, Rotter 3-1 pays Harvey a visit and greets him back.

[ FISHERCOVE ] [ Overall Commander ] [ Rotter 3-1 , 4th Bn. ] : " Welcome back, sir. How are you feeling? They said that you felt some headaches back there. "

Harvey looks at him shortly and looks back again to his hud and chuckles.

[ Harvey ] : " Hehe. Yeah. It must've been because of the numerous crews that I experienced those headaches, unlike the few crews of the helicopters back at H.Q. and Arkson Base. I guess too many crew spawns will definitely give me a headache due to overload or whatnot. "

Harvey then closes his hud and lays down on the bed to have a nap. He places his both hands behind his head and closes his eyes.

[ FISHERCOVE ] [ Overall Commander ] [ Rotter 3-1 , 4th Bn. ] : " I-I see, sir. Have a good rest, sir. I will notify you when further reports have been made on the operation. "

Rotter 3-1 salutes and Harvey salutes back.

...

" To think that so many crews will cause me headaches is somewhat a limiter for this thing, kinda pisses me off. " Harvey thought as he fell asleep.

...

...

...

*beeeeeeeeeeeep!*

"0810"
"USS Vermont"
"Dawen River"

...

...

...

The newly appointed commander of Task Force 01 - Rear Admiral Albert A. Aizenhower continues his task - that is to survey and observe the numerous Riman Forces along the Dawen River that were seen along the river and both Dittol Bay and Gulf of Drasthma. His nuclear-powered Virginia-class submarine is equipped with: BGM-109 Tomahawk Cruise Missiles, and Mk 48 Torpedoes. The submarine is now cruising at a steady 18 knots, submerged meters down below the water surface to allow its periscope to observe the upper surroundings.

Inside the Command Room, the Rear Admiral is holding and reading a clearbook that contains all of the procedures and manuals of the said submarine. He has been reading the manual for quite some time.

{ USS Vermont } { Task Force 01 Commander } { Rear Adm. Albert } : " Hm. Aight. I must have at least five-minutes or so to prepare for the cruise missiles huh.

But then, as he continues to read the clearbook manual, a radar crew notifies the Rear Admiral that the radar detects three to four unknown vessels.

[ USS Vermont ] [ Radar Crew 2 ] : " Sir! Three to four unknown vessels have appeared at three-hundred meters north-west! "

Rear Admiral Albert quickly puts off his clearbook manual on a tabletop near him and looks at the periscope crew near him.

{ USS Vermont } { Task Force 01 Commander } { Rear Adm. Albert } : " You know what to do, son. "

The periscope crew nods and adjusts the periscope to confirm the sightings as he continues to look into them.

...

After a couple of seconds of looking out at the waves, the periscope finally detects four wooden ships from afar. He immediately notifies the Rear Admiral about it while still looking inside the periscope.

[ USS Vermont ] [ Periscope Crew ] : " Confirm, sir! There are four ships north-west and are continuing coming west! But there are no indicative insignias on the ships and I can't distinguish whether they are Rimans, or not. "

{ USS Vermont } { Task Force 01 Commander } { Rear Adm. Albert } : " I see. Follow those ships and be on alert. "

Thus, the submarine quietly follows the four unidentified wooden ships at about four-hundred meters behind while they continue to observe the ships through its radars and periscope.

...

...

...

*beeeeeeeeeeeep!*

"0930"
"USS Vermont"
"Dittol Bay"

...

...

...

After minutes of stalking the four unidentified wooden ships, they finally reached Dittol Bay. The submarine observed that the four wooden ships were continuing further into the reported Riman Base located on the shores of the Dittol Bay just North of FISHERCOVE.

The Rear Admiral orders them to halt and stand by as they continue to observe the four wooden ships traveling into the shores. The communications crew prepare themselves to report to FISHERCOVE for the sighting and signal from the Rear Admiral.

...

...

And, after a couple more minutes, the four unidentified wooden ships docked on the Riman Base on the shores and numerous knight soldiers marched out from the said four wooden ships. All of them have Riman Force insignias and some were also carrying Riman Flags.

The periscope crew notifies the Rear Admiral about this and the Rear Admiral orders to report the sightings back to FISHERCOVE for further actions. The communications crew of the submarine adjust its radio frequencies and contacts FISHERCOVE into a designated frequency.

...

...

...

*beeeeeeeeeeeep!*

"0954"
"FISHERCOVE"
"Gargan Forest"

...

...

...

Inside the radio room of FISHERCOVE, Rotter 3-16 received a transmission from his radio table and the voice of a communications crew of the USS Vermont speaks through Rotter 3-16's headset.

[ USS Vermont ] [ Communications Crew 3 ] : " *radio* FISHERCOVE. This is USS Vermont. We are now reporting five-hundred meters north of the reported Riman Base at Dittol Bay. "

Rotter 3-16 replies back to wait and standby.

[ FISHERCOVE ] [ Radio Telephone Operator ] [ Rotter 3-16 , 4th Bn. ] : " *on radio* Roger that, USS Vermont. Standby. "

Rotter 3-16 then immediately contacts Rotter 3-1 inside the Command Quarters of FISHERCOVE. Inside there, he relays to the overall commander of the overwatch base seated on his table about the sighting report.

At the same time, back inside the radio room, another radio report came. But from the Overwatch Team 3. Rotter 3-17 picks up the transmission from his radio and the whispering voice of HOTEL 03 can be heard.

[ FISCHERCOVE ] [ Overwatch Team 3 Lead ] [ HOTEL 03 ] : " *whispers on radio* FISHERCOVE. Overwatch Team 3 Actual. There is another pack of Riman Soldiers docked at Dittol Base. Their base is reaching its maximum capacity. Over. "

[ FISHERCOVE ] [ Radio Telephone Operator ] [ Rotter 3-17 , 4th Bn. ] : " *on radio* Roger on that. Proceed with the operation. Out. "

As the transmission ends, Rotter 3-17 also quickly notifies Rotter 3-1 about the overwatch team patrol report. Inside, he sees Rotter 3-16 also reporting to Rotter 3-1. He waits until Rotter 3-16 is finished reporting.

Realizing that Rotter 3-16 also reported about the numerous Riman Soldiers coming out of the ships docked at Dittol Bay, Rotter 3-17 also reported the same, coming out of the overwatch team patrol's report. This confirms the validity of the reports, but, at the same time again, another radio report comes inside FISHERCOVE.

Rotter 3-14 received a transmission on his headset from Overwatch Team 2 that there are also massive ships seen approaching the southern shores of the Gulf of Drasthma.

[ FISCHERCOVE ] [ Overwatch Team 2 Lead ] [ HOTEL 02 ] : " *whispers on radio* FISHERCOVE. This is Overwatch Team 2 Actual. About six to eight massive ships that appear to be from Almeda Kingdom are approaching the southern shores of the Gulf of Drasthma. "

[ FISHERCOVE ] [ Radio Telephone Operator ] [ Rotter 3-14 , 4th Bn. ] : " *on radio* Roger that. Continue with the operation. Out. "

Rotter 3-14 also quickly goes inside the Command Quarters of Rotter 3-1 after the transmission ends. There, he also sees the other two RTOs and he was the last to report.

Because of the said reports, Rotter 3-1 concludes that the Almeda Kingdom is now also preparing their soldiers in case an attack or invasion would come.

Rotter 3-1 orders the three RTOs to resume their tasks and continue monitoring with the task force. The three RTOs salute as they leave the room and Rotter 3-1 stands up to wake up Harvey.

...

...

Inside the room where Harvey is sleeping, Rotter 3-1 wakes up Harvey by tapping his shoulders numerous times.

[ FISHERCOVE ] [ Overall Commander ] [ Rotter 3-1 , 4th Bn. ] : " Sir Harvey. Sir. There is something I want to report. "

Harvey quickly opens his eyes and wakes up. He sits and looks at Rotter 3-1 to ask what it is.

[ Harvey ] : " Wha-what is it? "

[ FISHERCOVE ] [ Overall Commander ] [ Rotter 3-1 , 4th Bn. ] : " Sir. Almeda Kingdom has also made their move on the Gulf of Drasthma. They are now starting to move their forces into its southern shores. "

Harvey is not surprised by it, neither does Rotter 3-1.

[ Harvey ] : " Oh I see. I guess that they are now also preparing for the worst huh. But don't you think it's a little bit early, no? "

Rotter 3-1 crosses his arms and thinks for a while.

[ FISHERCOVE ] [ Overall Commander ] [ Rotter 3-1 , 4th Bn. ] : " Hm. They must've got the info about the Riman Forces earlier on. "

[ Harvey ] : " Hm hm. Okay. Tell to Rear Admiral Albert to proceed with SCENARIO C. Remember that from the meeting yesterday, right? "

Rotter 3-1 is a little surprised by Harvey's response. He raises his eyebrows in little disbelief and surprise and chuckles a little.

[ FISHERCOVE ] [ Overall Commander ] [ Rotter 3-1 , 4th Bn. ] : " Wh-really, sir? Hehe. Of course, sir. Roger that. "

Harvey then lays back on the bed again with lax.

[ Harvey ] : " Good. After an hour or so, wake me up and I will head back again at our Designated Navy Base at Dawen River. "

[ FISHERCOVE ] [ Overall Commander ] [ Rotter 3-1 , 4th Bn. ] : " Understood, sir. "

As Rotter 3-1 salute and goes back to the radio room to notify Rotter 3-16 about Harvey's decision about the sighting report.

Inside the radio room, Rotter 3-16 radios USS Vermont.

[ FISHERCOVE ] [ Radio Telephone Operator ] [ Rotter 3-16 , 4th Bn. ] : " *on radio* USS Vermont. FISHERCOVE. How copy? Over. "

*pssh*

[ USS Vermont ] [ Communications Crew 3 ] : " *radio* FISHERCOVE. This is USS Vermont. Read you loud and clear. Over. "

Rotter 3-16 then speaks with a serious tone.

[ FISHERCOVE ] [ Radio Telephone Operator ] [ Rotter 3-16 , 4th Bn. ] : " *on radio* Roger. USS Vermont. Proceed to SCENARIO C. I say again. Proceed SCENARIO C. "

[ USS Vermont ] [ Communications Crew 3 ] : " *radio* Roger on SCENARIO C, FISHERCOVE. Out. "

The transmission ends and they all prepare for the operation.

...

...

...

*beeeeeeeeeeeep!*

"1027"
"USS Vermont"
"Dittol Bay"

...

...

...

Upon receiving the order, Rear Admiral Albert proceeded with SCENARIO C from their main operation plan. He orders the submarine to position itself on the Dawen River immediately.

The periscope is lowered down as the submarine will go into its full speed of 25 knots. While the other armament crews prepare the armaments and standby for further orders.

...

...

...

*beeeeeeeeeeeep!*

"1124"
"USS Vermont"
"Dawen River"

...

...

...

Arriving back at Dawen River, Rear Admiral Albert begins commencing SCENARIO C. He orders the submarine to halt and resurface for the submarine's missile pods to open. He orders four Tomahawk Cruise Missiles to be fired upon some of the vessels of the Riman Nation and Almeda Kingdom in hopes of decreasing their numbers and having them retreat to their respective countries.

Continuous alarms from inside the Command Room and quarters of the submarine echo as the submarine is slowly resurfacing and opening its missile pods. Then, as four missile pods are finally opened,

[ USS Vermont ] [ Combat Crew 4 ] : " MISSILE PODS ONE, TWO, THREE, AND FOUR ARE NOW OPEN, SIR! "

As one of the combat crews said to the Rear Admiral.

Rear Admiral Albert went to the map glass board and encircled two ships on each side for their targets with his red marking pen. After that, he then orders to pinpoint the four encircled vessels in their radar in about 2 and 3 kilometers distances each.

The radar crews then manage to pinpoint their targets with the help of the radio and radar antennas around Gargan Forest and numerous constant digital information coming from FISHERCOVE. With that, they signal Rear Admiral Albert that the targets are ready to be fired.

{ USS Vermont } { Task Force 01 Commander } { Rear Adm. Albert } : " Alright. Let's hope that they will be scared and come running away. "

He then takes a short sigh of uncertainty and hope as he stares back at the map glass board.

{ USS Vermont } { Task Force 01 Commander } { Rear Adm. Albert } : " *sigh* Alright - ... "

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

{ USS Vermont } { Task Force 01 Commander } { Rear Adm. Albert } : " ... - send it. "

As soon as the Rear Admiral orders the firing of the cruise missiles, the combat crews activate the release and firing of the four Tomahawk Cruise Missiles. 

One missile fired after another and they flew up into the atmosphere about cruising altitude
