The hivemind is conquering for me?-Chapter 368: War On Bastion IX

With her prime wreaking havoc upon the world's surface, Jewel began sending her troops below ground into the intense tunnel networks of the defenders. When Prime three arrived, the impact had sent The Bloodfiend down into the ground instead of up like Apollo and judging from what Jewel was seeing, The hybrid was having fun once more.

The restrictive space to move meant that while she only just managed to fit inside of the tunnels, it meant that as she moved her body, nothing could get past her at all. So instead of swinging about her claws, slowing herself down, The Bloodfiend just ran. Through everything and everyone.

Of course the defenders tried to stop the Bloodfiend, one time they actually fired an anti tank round directly through its midsection, creating a gigantic hole, but the Bloodfiend, not feeling anything in its delight just kept running and running, its open maw with stained red teeth the last thing a large of amount of defenders witnessed before becoming meat paste upon her front.

...

Meanwhile Orchid fell right back into her old job. She was not inside the domain when Prime three descended unto the planet and she figured that she would be useless in fighting the god so she began taking control of the backlines, killing straggles and ordering warriors of her former gene-strain to begin sweeping for biomass and to pile it up, making it easier for the hive to retrieve said biomass.

It was monotonous work, but She had done it for a few hundred years before Apollo was found and was her natural function. Of course she would drop the work in a second the moment Apollo finished floating around in space and would rush to his side upon re-entry.

...

"What the? Oh are you kidding me?" I muttered in dissatisfaction. I had decided to use my brain and used my Gyrokinesis to pull myself between various pieces of debris in order to make my way to the planet faster.

The plan had worked, but I did not expect the domain of the god to have a roof I could not get through. I was literally just standing now on top of the domain, the planet's gravity now pulling me enough that I was not floating around...

I did not know what to do as no hive entities had come near me within the last hour and my telepathic capabilities were not great enough to reach out far enough to any. Still, at least I knew where I would be falling now. It was inside of the defenders territory, but without me standing amongst the hive, I would wager I would not be attacked right away and could just act until I was rescued.

'I also need to have a word with the massive hive form that had sent me flying up here in the first place. Watch out for the Apollo when coming in hot will be ingrained into that creature's mind.' I muttered at the end as I began caressing my lower back which had a cylindrical container that held another cylindrical object inside which was used to punish bad hive entities attached to it.

That would be later though. For now I sat down and just began stargazing as I waited for the hive to finish the god thing off

...

In the Coalition defence war room, The generals were beyond hysteric. They were demanding that the acting leader, Cor'voth, begin immediate evacuation. There were not many ships left and they knew that barely half of the remaining defence force would be able to evacuate. For the sake of the Coalition, they had to survive and prepare future defences and write appeals to sanction the use of black technology and weaponry to destroy the thing passively destroying their defences while fighting the Seer.

Cor'voth, however, was not listening to any of them. He could not even hear them. Inside of his battle mech, which was only three meters tall, Cor'voth was busy sending out orders to the currently constantly changing frontlines while taking control of the Thurx fabricators and turning the perfected robots into mobile explosives as they were picked up by flyers and dropped into the incoming hunger in mass.

He was also keeping constant checks on the total % of the planet lost. 28.71% was still too high. His Seer had been doing a good job of keeping the thing of titan size to him away from the front lines, only fighting it where the area had already been destroyed.

As he looked out of his cockpit for a quick second, he noticed the generals surrounding him, all shouting about something he could not hear. Shaking his head, he decided upon retreating to the next planet, which had been constantly informed of what was proceeding thanks to the brave war reporters of which many had lost their lives in their pursuit of documentation, that he would discharge the 'show' generals and bring in lower ranked, actually qualified individuals.

The senate would not appreciate this move of course and Cor'voth would receive quite a large disciplinary action when he returned. But to save as many citizens as he could, it was worth it.

Suddenly, there was a large disturbance in his scanner that brought Cor'voth to attention and made his way to the nearby window. In the distance, he saw the titan for the first time out of his recordings and gulped.

Still, his Uralg flap extended across his head as he turned and shouted through the mechs modulator, making him sound menacing for once. "Evacuate the building. The thing is coming right for us!"

The generals needed no further excuse to leave; the empty room now only housed one tiny individual and his mech. "Well, if I'm being crushed, I am saying fuck it!" Cor'voth naturally came prepared to back those words up as he had packed his suit with black weaponry. Volatile weapons, mostly untested and can do significant damage to those around if something goes wrong.

All of a sudden, a large Cannon, twice the size of the very suit he was wearing suddenly emerged from said suit somehow and began charging. The cannon was loaded with a large Damatrium shell that was being empowered by two shrunken down FTL drives within the suit.

Cor'voth was playing a game that no one else would dare to play as he was about to fire the galaxy's strongest and most durable metal at light speed. He then asked for blessings from his suit to keep him safe from harm. He wasn't a nutter like that chick that follows the king of Spartari around, but he knew there was something in machines that was more than just their wires.

As the titan came within 500 meters of the Plipit, he became trigger happy and fired his weapon. In an instant he was sent reeling backwards by the recoil and was thrown out of the heavily fortified building, unable to see the instant success of his work.

The ball of Damatrium, reaching the paradoxical mass and energy of FTL speed passed straight through the titan, its gigantic thorax opening up in an instant as it was sent reeling backwards for miles due to the impact.

Jewel also noticed the sudden, dangerous, energy and slowed her perception of time as she watched a sphere of energy pass through the planet's atmosphere, through one of her unfortunately located ships and into the depths of space where it would travel at that speed until the end of existence.

...

Aeletha was stunned. Being inside of her domain, she naturally knew what Cor'voth had done and was shocked that he had not shared this weapon of his with the Coalition, even if it would outright be classified as too dangerous for war.

Aeletha then brought her attention towards the beast and felt a sense of melancholy surround her. For all her power, she was unable to destroy the colossus, yet a genius' invention was capable? She knew she was harnessing the power of a god with a lowercase g, but still... This stung."

All of a sudden, she felt an overwhelming sense of danger from behind her and before she had time to teleport away, she was struck with the flat of a gigantic sword and sent tumbling through the large trench the FTL weapon had made during its shot.

Prime three upon landing back on the ground after using her regeneration was packed to the brim with adrenaline. "Such damage sustained! I want more! I want to kill the being that destroyed my entire Thorax with one blow!" She was not even sure how it did it as she was nearly killed in a fraction of a second, but she wanted round two so she could attempt to observe it and devour its strength.

Still, Prime three's battle tactics took hold. She should deal with the god now that its domain had crumbled in case the injuries it sustained were recoverable and it could put its domain back up.

Prime three had killed millions passively, but she assumed that the god would count as more than one kill. All but assuring that she was the one that spent the next week with her mate!
