New Game+

Dune World was a Caliphate power that had changed the course of the battles in the desert. While the Caliphates had no strong capabilities in conquering other nations, no nation would dare wage war with the Caliphates by sending in ground forces. And even their air forces would find it hard-pressed.

The Caliphates could recreate and terraform the dunes and sand by altering its properties through the harnessing of the sand beneath them. Since the Third World War, this project has made the Caliphates one of the most challenging places to invade.

Even Magantae did not wish to clash directly and wanted to infiltrate the place. But now, the technology they feared that the Caliphates would use was nowhere.

Dune World would create an artificial sandstorm that would create electrical sparks as the magnetic movement would create friction, heat, and even electrical charges.

Every fortress was capable of commanding the sand beneath them. Within the sands were tiny sensors that allowed the Caliphates to detect where the enemy's positions were through metallic identification when these sands would touch with the enemy units within the sandstorm.

Even the Exoskeletons of the WGP could not deceive this tech, and as such, they were immediately detected.

The Planteds who were on standby immediately detected four Exoskeleton suits. The mirage techs that the WGP employed were seen through, and it even vanished as the constant attack of the sandstorm raged over them.

All the Planted's immediately rushed and attack Magantae's team.

In the midst of the Sandstorm, most projectiles won't work as the raging magnetism would cause the aim to miss. And even the most complicated sensors and targeting devices won't work in such an area.

In this region, the Arabian Contained Flame Technology would show its true powers.

Several reddish lights appeared in the dark and sandy surroundings.

"Flame Sabers! They deployed them!" One of the Commanders paled as he saw the number of lightsabers that seemed like floating lights.

The figures of the enemy Exoskeleton could be seen near them.

"Don't trust your sensors! The distortion from the magnetic sandstorm will cause our sights to haywire. And don't also trust your sight. Remember, their Mirage techs still work in the sandstorm!" Fleet Admiral gave her orders.

The Commanders knew what to do. Their suits transformed, and several pile bunkers appeared on their arms.

The Planteds were approaching, and their scanners were picking up the location of the WGP Exoskeleton. Their sensors did not follow the usual forms but used the sandstorm to locate the enemy's positions.

The Planteds slowly moved with a large shield in one hand and a saber in the other.

Before the Planteds could charge together, the Commanders all rushed out and began to attack the soldiers.

The charge was fast, and even though the movement broke the sound barrier, no eruptions were heard as it used a variety of technology.

Even with the Planted soldiers' superior sensors, all they could see was a blur. Commanders, Admirals, and Generals had changed ever since World War Three. Those given these positions were not to those who sat in the office, but only when they have proven themselves in battle. The WGP bloodline was born with the precious and mysterious "Bloodline Superiority," and a common man among them would be experts in the world. But even with Magantae's mixed blood, she managed to reach where she was through skill. And in the era where secret wars in the Underworld and the deep sea occur, the Commanders and Fleet Admiral Magantae had the skills to back their positions.

BANG!

Several explosive attacks were heard as the Pile Bunkers smashed through and destroyed the heads of the Exoskeletons.

"WHAT?!" Maver, who watched from his office, was shocked that a few immediately died without even having the chance to fight back.

"But- But!" Maver was speechless.

"These are experts of Underwater Warfare? This squad could be from an Atlantis! No wonder that vessel could hide so deep from the surface!" Commander Owens frowned.

"Focus the Dune Tempest in that area! Activate High-Resistant mode! The enemy can travel at three times our speed!" Several orders were made, and the soldiers immediately followed.

BOOM! BOOM!

Several explosions reached the sides of the fortress, and another icy bomb began to appear, damaging the Base's sensory and communication channels.

Lowengren had secretly released another, and since this weapon was not launched in a rocket, the attack surprised everyone.

The attack surprised the Commander, and he turned his attention to the battle. It didn't make sense. No rockets were detected, and the battle at sea had grown intense. Yet despite this, the Commander focused on the fight against the WGP.

Despite their numbers, the submarine that had now revealed itself to have a form like a large blue whale with two large arms, and it hovered over the water.

Lowengren noticed it and realized that Lennox's ship was based on a certain fictional character.

"What a nerd." Lowengren shook his head.

General Vender continued to pilot it and used his Unlocking to maximize his advantage. But the ship itself already had a lot of powerful attacks that required no pilot. It was, after all, a ship that Lennox designed. The entire ship had a very powerful and almost sentient artificial intelligence, the first of Lennox's creation.

This submarine had a lot of offensive attacks and even used hardened electric bolts that would pierce like swords and retreat in the large whaleship. It could gather the water from the ground and shoot it to surround the areas, making it a powerful shield. With cold fusion applied, these waters would even become ice when it would detect a powerful attack.

"Vender! Distract the Commander of that base! It looks like that bomb wasn't enough to make him ignore the WGP. He's quite skilled and has already begun a dangerous counter-attack at the WGP soldiers!" Lowengren sent a message.

"But I'm already fighting! What can I do?" Vender complained.

"Do something like what you did earlier! Talk! Annoy him! Lead him with a lie. Tell him you know the location of the Lost Primordial! That will get a base to listen to you! And then do what you do best! Talk and get their attention! You have received an experimental drug from Charles that relied on Seeker's Path! You must have evolved it already! It has become a Skill!"

"A Skill? But isn't it too early for that? I just got injected now two days ago!"

"Do it! It has evolved! Your recent antics have proven it!" Lowengren lied. Although Lowengren knew that this Vender was annoying and almost out-of-rhythm in his words, Lowengren used his lies to make Vender confident.

And it worked.

"Alright! I'll make my move now!" Vender roared confidently and piloted the blue ship forward.

The Exoskeletons and Armor retreated as most of their weapons couldn't even hit the large ship with all of its defensive protocols. They distanced themselves and switched to long-ranged attacks.

Vender activated the Trumpet Protocol installed. It was a broadcasting tool that utilized Richie's ability. And while it couldn't emulate Peals of Thunder, it was able to create a loud and almost heart-pounding sound that shocked everyone.

"Hey, can anyone tell Commander Owens that I would like to challenge him into a one-on-one battle?" Vender suggested.

Because of Dune World, communication was very limited. And so, to communicate, special communication drones would accompany the squad, which allows them to communicate back and forth.

"Commander! This General wants to fight you one on one!" One of the Major's reported.

Commander Owens frowned as he heard this.

"Ignore him and fight!"

"I have a message from the Lost Primordial!" Vender declared. He modified Lowengren's suggestion, but this was enough to make Maver open the line to the Major.

"Transmit what he says to us!" Maver interjected, and Commander Owens also approved the order.

They listened and waited for Vender to speak.

"Yo! Uh! Uh! Word to my dawgs, the Lost Primordial! Uh!" Vender began to talk like a wannabe rapper.

His rhythm, timing tone, and pace were so bad that it made those who had moderate to advanced knowledge in music and rapping annoyed.

"Stugs! Stupacks! Stugustupack!" Vender began to beat box.

"Is he beatboxing?" Lowengren frowned but then suddenly realized what he was doing. Lowengren had already reached the coastlines and stopped moving due to his agitation at Vender's actions.

"Ugh! I got distracted! Is this a Skill? Scary…" Lowengren shook his head and began to move into the sandstorm, fearing that he would get distracted from Vender's actions.

It was then that Vender began his rap. With his Unlocking, he could think faster and started to write a lyrical rap masterpiece. Vender believed that he could create bars of such lit fire that it would make Arabian Contained Flame technology look like a candle.

"Throughout the seas and over the lands, no General can survive my hands!"

"In every battle, the soldiers flee, for there is no one who is like me!"

"So all you soldiers, you better prepare! Cuz I'll cook you up like medium rare!"

"I've got African blood through and through, so if you call me racist, well, screw you!"

"The General MC is here to battle! So ugh… erm… just…oh! A cattle!"

"If you like being straight, then protect your member! For I am the great General! Gender Vender!"

"Mic drop! Word to your mama." Vender felt very good with himself.

While he was rapping, he continued to navigate the ship and relied mostly on the ship's auto-attacking protocols.

"Why did I marry you?" Vender's wife wondered.

  "So, how was it?" Vender asked excitedly as he began to fight seriously.

  "You suck!" One of the soldiers couldn't help it anymore and cursed at Vender.

BANG!

The soldier died because Vender snipped him.

"Critics. They can't understand my genius." Vender shook his head.

Meanwhile, back in base, the group was surprised and too annoyed at Vender's actions. Many were cursing at the stupid rap.

But their frustration suddenly changed when their eyes turned back to the battle against the WGP.

"Commander! Half of the Planted's are dead!" Maver then noticed as he finally realized what happened when he turned his attention back to the screen. The one minute when Vender called for the Commander's attention cost them, several dead soldiers.

"ARGH! That cursed man! Pull back Squads Charlie and Echo! I want Hotel and Kilo squads to replace them! Keep each squad close with each other and have their shields up at all times! Maver now is a good time to use the squad equipped with those special weapons!"

Maver was silent, and then he heard Lowengren's confirmation.

"It's alright. I've just gotten word with Arbiter. The Dune World allowed me to communicate without raising suspicion. The device is armed. They will no longer just be what it looks like. But the Dune World has to be disabled! With the metals whirling around, it could also kill your men!" Lowengren was able to reposition himself and communicate with Maver just in time for them to use the secret weapon.

Maver sneered as he heard it.

"Commander, we've confirmed with the General. The weapons are armed. But to prevent friendly fire, we must stop down the Dune World!"

"Then send your men in! On my signal, disable the magnetism of the Dune World!"

The Planted's were outmatched. Even with their superior technology, the experience of these Commanders and Magantae were two levels higher.

The Planteds were assuming defensive formations while Magantae and her team were out to hunt.

Suddenly, a new group of Planteds approached the team without any shields.

"WGP! Fleet Admiral Intrik is on his way here. Surrender now, and we will make General Vender's death light!" Commander Owens suddenly broadcasted as the Dune World vanished.

The thin but powerful Exoskeleton frames seemed fragile, but it was one of the most feared suits.

"Is that… a Commander level?" Commander Owens was shocked.

"Where is General Vender? Return him, and Africa will cease its attack!" The Fleet Admiral asked with her voice distorted.

"Africa? That's a WGP Exoskeleton!"

"If you want the right stuff, you can sell your soul in the Underworld." Magantae laughed as she quoted a very popular saying about the Underworld.

Owens frowned and turned to Maver.

"Use the weapon now!"

Maver nodded and contacted all the Planteds through his Comm device.

"Activate it now!" Maver ordered.

The Planteds charged off and finally withdrew the weapon that Lowengren had outfitted their suits.

Immediately, they did as Lowengren had instructed earlier and raised it to the sky holding only the tip of the base of this weapon.

And then they saw it for the first time. Lowengren was very strict in instructing them not to remove it from its cases unless it was to be used. This was because the signals of this weapon would be very distinct.

The Planted, Commander Owens, and Maver had bizarre expressions as they saw the secret weapon.

It took them a few seconds to finally absorb it, but they all identified this mysterious weapon.

"It's a dildo!" One of the female officers exclaimed and blushed.

"What's a dildo doing in their suits?!" Owens shouted at Maver.

But while everyone was still shocked at what they heard, what followed was an even more confusing scene.

Magantae took one look at these dildos and made a very horrifying conclusion. The Caliphates had already retrieved Vender's weapon.

"Admiral! It's the dildos!" One of the Commanders shouted in a panic that he accidentally broadcasted it.

"Retreat for now! Avoid the dildos!" Magantae quickly ordered, forgetting to turn off her broadcast.

The WGP Exoskeletons immediately retreated and positioned themselves forty meters away from the team of Exoskeletons that were holding dildos.
