On a patch of grassland to the north of the city laid the camp in which Michael remained. With him were fifty other Androids standing guard.

Michael was inside the tent situated in the center. There, he finalized the operation that will end the Theocracy.

The plans for the operation were laid out as a holographic projection. In the projection were the divisions which were labeled accordingly.

Three infantry divisions of ten thousand drones each. One division of armoured vehicles and one division consisting of Mech Walkers and mechanized battalions.

The three infantry divisions were situated north west, north east and south. The armoured division was situated to the north and the mechanized division to the south west.

The airport which was situated to the southeast of the city was under a blockade of their warships. The airport itself had been rendered useless after the bombardment and thus no troops are needed to reinforce.

A small battalion of Androids were dispatched to take formal control.

The airforce consisted of one hundred Assault Drones and twenty fighter jets. The fighter jets were the newly reverse-engineered but low quality variant of the prewar modern fighter jet employed by the human government back then. Despite lagging behind the original, the fighter jet was still more than capable in fulfilling its role of shock and awe.

These were the summary of the forces tasked to capture the city. All of which were under Michael's command. From his tent, Michael relaxed as the deadline was almost over.

Suddenly, Michael heard footsteps. They were getting closer and closer to his tent.

It was Artemis. Wearing his full commander clothings.

"Ah! Commander, glad to see you" Michael said.

"I see" Artemis said. Artemis was dragging behind him a chair since he thought that Michael won't have a spare. And he was right, there was only one chair inside Michael's tent.

He placed the chair against the holographic projection directly facing against Michael and sat down.

"What brings you here? So far off from the battlefield" Michael asked.

Artemis pushed himself against the back of his chair and said. "You cancelled the bombardment, it's been a day and a half since the last shell. I was curious of your plans since you have not informed me directly of them"
