[EA-2 to all Gunships]
Johnathan, his psychic link with the drones, said to the other Gunship Drones.
[Gunships with guns to go in first and provide close-in support while others with anti-shipping ordnance to commence bombing of that worm next]
[Roger]
The rest of the Gunship Drones replied and the attackers formed up into a 5 - 5 - 3 formation. The first five Gunship Drones were armed with twin .50 caliber guns and a dual 20 mm gun pod dipped their nose, then the Drones appeared to burst into flames as the guns fired while the other three Gunship Drones with their anti shipping bombs pulled up higher to gain altitude.
Streaks of red tracers licked out towards the sea monster that was dazed by the shelling provided by the Battleship Destroyer. The heavy rounds hit the thick hide of the Leviathan and the rounds managed to be easily pierced through its slimy surface. Unfortunately with the Leviathan's large size and regeneration capability, it is still not enough to kill the monster even though they shot it hundreds of times.
"RAWWWRR!!!"
In anger, its large tail struck towards the drones at fast speed.
At a greater speed, the five Gunship Drones spun away as they dodge the tail, flying in a higher altitude. Seeing them dodging its attack, the Leviathan roared in anger as it missed its targets.
Not before long, the second wave of Gunship Drones dived down at an angle of 50 degrees from the skies with air screaming through their wings. Each of them releasing tens of load of two cast 1000 pound Bombs, they quickly pulled up one after the other and large water spurts erupted around the squirming sea monster as the delayed fused bombs detonated, the powerful shock and energy waves further hurting and shocking the creature.
The Island Whales bayed in fear and swam further away, trying to escape the sudden loud explosions. The Whales raised their serpentine heads out from the waters and watched the struggle of the Leviathan while the strange buzzing creatures roared loudly at it.
As the squadron flight regroup after their strafing and bombing run, another volley fired by the Battleship Destroyers hammered the sea monster in the distance.
But killing it is still fruitless as its wounds keep regenerating every time it keeps getting bombarded.
As the Leviathan kept getting bombard from all directions, having had enough, it look at the Gunships in the air flying around it at great speed, suddenly, a blue light emitted located on its throat.
Michael, in the Battleship Destroyer, notices a strong energy fluctuation from its throat and speaks to his partner.
"Johnathan, the Leviathan was about to attack,"
"I know," Johnathan replied, he then began to message the Drones to fall back, realizing the Sea Monster is about to use whatever attack it will bring.
As the Drones were about to return, a second later the Leviathan already did its charge.
And at the next instant, the beast breathed out a massive beam of energy that severed the sky into two.
And surprisingly, the magic energy within the beam has the power at the level of a Super Tier Spell.
But with their superior speed, the Gunships dodges the attack and manage to escape from it, their armor could withstand the attack but with how powerful is the magic beam, it could disrupt their systems and probably automatically shuts down and land on the sea.
With the Island Whales and the Gunships gone, the Leviathan roars in rage, its prey escapes and it can't get its revenge. But some of its attackers didn't escape from it yet, its gaze suddenly turned to the fleets of Battleships, remembering those things also causing it to feel immense pain, the Leviathan plans to destroy them for its own revenge.
Seeing the Sea Monster turn its attention on them, the human crewmates in the ship start to panic.
"Sirs! The Monster turns its attention to us! What are your orders??" One of them yelled in panic at the two Elite Drones on what their plans next.
"Oh, simple….. nothing." Michael replied, to the crewmate's surprise, both of the Elite Androids seemed very calm. He couldn't tell because they don't have any expressions but judging by their behavior they seem to have a plan.
Trusting his leaders, he tells the other crewmate to calm down and sees what their leader's plan is exactly.
Then, another blue light emitted on the Leviathan's throat ready to blast its attack with the power equivalent to a Super tier spell.
Together with its roar, the Leviathan once again shot down its attack.
If they have human faces, Michael and Johnathan's expression remain calm.
At the next instant, a massive beam of energy came out of its mouth but more larger than before was shot and severed the sky into two.
As the beam of energy was 10 meters from the ship, suddenly it then clashed against a force field protecting the ship.
30 seconds has passed, the Leviathan stops its attack because the longer it holds it, its mana will drain at a faster rate.
But then, to the Leviathan's surprise the forcefield didn't seem nearly breaking after the 30 second long attack the Leviathan gave.
"Ha! Dumbass, this force field could withstand dozens of Nukes at once, you only drain 12% of the ship's defensive system!" Michael yelled, taunting the monster.
Right now, the force field that covers the ship top, side, and the bottom stood still, as if it taunts the Leviathan's ultimate attack.
As time passed, not before long a loud horn noise was sounded across the northern coast.
"Finally… it arrives," Johnathan spoke, looking at the distance behind the Leviathan, the infamous project that Artemis made has finally come for round 2.
The Leviathan, felt another being the same size as it, but before it turned around immediately, the back of its head was grabbed by a large hand, before it could realize something was wrong, the large being threw the Leviathan several kilometers away.
After landing in the water creating a ginormous splash, the Leviathan stood and looked at the newcomer in anger.
In front of it is none other than Project: Colossal, the Titan Drone that Artemis invented and uses the Drone during the siege of the capital city of the Theocracy.
After getting defeated by the Primal Wind Elemental Aurora summoned, the machines began to reconstruct the Drone back to its full glory, but not before long Caitlyn, with the knowledge of pre war tech modified the Titan into a more powerful drone that could defeat the Primal Wind Elemental with ease.
And now, they have used it for the second time.
*HORRRRRN!*
A loud and powerful horn echoes the surrounding areas as it faces the infamous Leviathan. The creature itself stood firm and gaze at the metallic giant with bloodthirsty eyes.
"Hell yeah, Battle of Titans once again, to be honest I kinda love these giant monster fights," Michael spoke in excitement, he also not the only person who kinda likes to see stuff like this as some of the human crewmates also love to see it.
"Let's try to be silent and enjoy the show, shall we?" Johnathan said to his partner, standing at the very front of the bridge to see two Titans clashed.
Time passes as the two Titanic beasts stood, it seems hours have already passed but it's just 4 seconds in real time.
Another few seconds has passed and silence still prevails at the scene until the Leviathan immediately rushed at it, the ocean split into two by the Leviathan's great speed.
Immediately, as the Leviathan engages in battle, the Titan raises both of its arms and the next instant both of its shoulders, biceps, and forearms open, releasing hundreds of missiles with each being at 0.9 kilotons of TNTs.
The barrage of missiles were ahead towards the beast at unpredictable speed, the missiles exploded at the beast but it continued to rush ignoring the immense pain it felt. But thanks to its regeneration, its wounds are healing rapidly making the Titan's attacks fruitless.
The explosions caused a large grey cloud around the Leviathan covering its body, it thought it could hide from the Titan's gaze and could cause a surprise attack on it but as it did, it only met with a hand grabbing its neck.
The Titan already knew where the Leviathans were thanks to its infrared sensors, before the sea monster struggled and tried to break free, the Colossal Titan's fist emitted with red light, containing a large amount of Argent Energy within it while at the same time red lightning appeared around the fist in each second.
With a powerful force the Titan punches the Leviathan's face, hurting and stunning the creature for a few seconds as it lands on the ocean's depths.
As the Titan was about to unleash another attack, a large tail came out on its side and bitch slapped the Titan in the face, making it stumble to the ocean floor.
"Damn, the Titan just got bitch slapped", Michael said as he, Johnathan, and other Crewmates watched the fight ongoing.
Getting the opportunity to attack, the Leviathan immediately swam through the ocean below heading towards behind the Titan itself.
The reason it's not going to tangle the Titan is that the Titan itself produces an unnatural energy in its body, and its senses say if it does that, then it will get heavily damaged if it wants to squeeze the Titan to death.
It is both a smart move and its instincts at the same time.
Before the Titan could fully stand up, the Leviathan wasted no time and unleashed its powerful breath of destruction, the mass beam of energy cutting through the air leaving a vacuum in its path until it managed to hit the Titan's back, pushing the metallic humanoid more.
When it thought it managed to overwhelm the Titan, to its surprise, the Titan stood back up unfazed by the attack, the Leviathan kept shooting its beam which is still useless against the Titan, the Primelium layer armor in it helps it defend against something like this. Moreover, if it's the same Titan like the one before, its systems will malfunction by the magic in the energy sabotaging its systems because it manage to enter the weak point of the Titan, however, this time it has no weak points, making it as one of the Machine Empire's most strongest Drones out there.
Wanted to deal with the situation quickly, the Titan wasted no time shoots a powerful beam of energy out of its one eye, shockingly it split the Leviathan's attack, the red beam of death was immediately in front of the Leviathan, helpless, the Sea Monster has no choice but to receive it.
As the beam hit the beast's face, it created a massive wave of energy in the area. The Leviathan was launched back a kilometer away with three degree burns on its rubbery tough skin.
"Rawrrrr!!"
The creature roars in pain from the energy beam the Titan gives, as it tries to get up, a large metallic feet steps on its body, at the same time the feet shoot something on its body that messes its bioelectrical and shuts down its nervous system, paralyzing the creature.
Lifting it up from the ocean floor, soon the Leviathan's eyes lockdown on the Titan.
Menacingly looking at the monster before it, the Titan's other hand activates its huge Energy Blade, the energy within it is extremely powerful that is unfazed by the ocean below while creating a large steam it produces when made contact to the sea water.
Noticing the danger lies ahead, the Leviathan desperately tries to struggle out which is useless because of its body being paralyze.
The Leviathan only helplessly watch the Titan shoved its sword on the monster's center, then cleanly moving it upwards, bypassing it's thick skin that not even peak <A+> rank could penetrate the skin easily, at the same time bypass its magical and natural defenses with ease, destroying and burning both of its internal organs and monster core, instantly killing the monster.
Now, the legendary Terror of the Deep that the residence fear a long time ago died, its upper body was split into two like that.
Dropping its body as it fell to the ground, a large amount of blood came out of its corpse mixing with the clear and beautiful ocean floor.
"Ho! That went great, good thing Caitlyn modified it, it could probably kill 10 Godzillas at once with it," Michael says, satisfied with the fight in the distance in front of him.
"Cease fire to all ships, the target is dead."
Hearing Johnathan's orders, the crewmates from other Battleship Destroyers cheered, which boosted their behavior towards the Machine Empire on how capable they are.
[RTB for resupply over]
With that, the 500 meter large Titan returned back to base while the flight of Hovercrafts launched from the Machine Harbor took over observation duties over the sea monster.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In a speeding boat, there is a person in front that seems to be the gunner of the boat. As they arrived at the corpse of the Leviathan, he gave out a cry of excitement as the boat arrived.
Lero, one of the residents in the City of Halledge, the Fortress City in the kingdom of Atira near the Alnub forest and the Theocracy border, ever since he was taken and then became a citizen in this strange new nation, his life was kinda fine for the past month, but for some reason he doesn't fully remember how he became a citizen of theirs in the first place but everytime he tries to thought about it, he keeps thinking other topics for some reason, but he usually ignores it.
As he watches the corpse of the large monster he has always heard stories about. He then peered over the gun shield of his weapon and saw a huge purplish grey island coming up ahead.
A flight of Hovercrafts buzzed around above them while in the far distance several islands with flippers and heads appeared to be swimming closer to them.
"Heavens!" Lero gasped in amazement as the PT boat came next to the floating carcass of the Leviathan. The boat pilot reduced speed and the PT boat made a circuit around the sea monster. The water was filled with a dark red stain which Lero assumed to be the blood of the Leviathan.
The huge lifeless eyes of the serpent stared dead ahead and Lero counted a total of four eyes, two on each side of its splitting face. It bobbed up and down with the waves as the smells it produces is worse than shit.
"Is it dead?" Lero heard one of the crews below yelled as they all looked at the monster floating there. Lero shuddered at the thought that if it wasn't, they would be the ones dead!
Still, he aimed his armed double barrel Mount Turret at the creature as the boat slowly powered next to the creature. As they came next to the creature, the stench was overwhelming, smelling like a mixture of rotting garbage and spoiled milk.
Coughing madly and pulling his sea strained uniform to cover his nose, Lero's eyes teared as the stench irritated his eyes. Commander, Petty Officer Jade quickly ordered the pilot to back the boat away and not get too close.
Both the PT boats moved away from the carcass and stayed roughly two hundred meters away from the mound of flesh and upwind from it.
"Fuck! That is disgusting!" Lero spat over the side before taking out a canteen of water to rinse his face and mouth. "No wonder no fishes are coming to eat that thing with a smell that bad!"
As he capped his canteen, he noticed the Island Whales coming closer and closer. "Hey, Boss! Those weird island fish are coming closer! What do we do?"
Petty Officer Jade heard his yell, clambered up to the flying bridge and looked out from his pair of binoculars. "Don't need to worry, they are quite docile and friendly. Maybe they are just coming over to say thanks?"
"Erm, will they flip us over when they come too close?" Lero swallowed his fear as he saw the moving islands coming almost right on top of them. He could even see wyverns roosting in the trees on the backs of those creatures and thick vegetation growing on their backs.
The one which was grappled by the Leviathan had its back look like it suffered a hurricane, as the foliage on its back was torn and trees were broken here and there. Lero wondered how these creatures came to grow an island with trees and plants on their parts at some point.
The Island Whales paused several meters away from the two boats and both sides stared at each other in curiosity. The heads of the Island Whales looked serpentine, with thick folds of skin and intelligent beady eyes. Their mouths were beak shaped like a Pico Pico bird and they have turtle-like flippers.
"So what do we do?" Lero asked again as he nervously held on the butterfly gripes of his dual mount guns.
"Fuck, as if I know," Jade whispered back. "Gonna make a damn call." With that Jade climbed back into the wheelhouse leaving Lero alone in the turret mount.
Time passed and the Island Whales just watched them while the injured Whale once in a while gave a bay of pain.
The unique hull shape of the Machine Empire's Battleship Destroyer soon appeared over the horizon. The Island Whales gave out a cry as they saw the ships but did not do anything else except watch.
Michael stood at the launch deck and watched as the wind changed and the stench of the monster drifted over. He estimated the length of the sea monster to be at least 3 times bigger than the Battleship Destroyer itself and he peered over the side of the ship into the dark waters below and wondered what other horrors were there underneath his feet.
He turned to the assembled crew on the deck and yelled, "Alright boys, we got a shit job to do!"
Pointing to the Leviathan's corpse, he shouted.
"And that is to stow that sinking bag of shit monster back to Harbor!"
He then raises his arm pointed towards the Island Whales looking at them curiously as he continues to speak.
"As for the Island Whales, let's dig some good ol 'booties inside!"
"Commander Michael, are you sure we'll do this, they might get hurt," One of the crewmates asked, feeling worried towards the giant creatures.
"Of course they will be okay, it's kinda like taking wool from a sheep, we have studied them not too long ago."
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As the crews of humans take care of the Leviathan's corpse, Johnathan steps forward beside Michael.
"We did our job well," Johnathan said.
"Yeah, yeah, to be honest, controlling bunch of humans is way harder than contolling a Drone. I really needed a break. I'm kinda tired of all of this fantasy crap already; Like magic, Demi humans, Kaijus, what's next, Mermaid people?"
"It felt like you just jinx it,"
"Nah, I don't think so,"
As if Life teases Michael, or just gives him the middle finger, the ocean surface splashed as three figures emerged from the water.
All of the crews who were working immediately aimed their weapons at the figures who were armed.
Michael and Johnathan raised their hands as red energy emitted from their palms, just a single touch of the energy, the person's entire body's matter would disintegrate instantly.
As the area was clear, three figures, the one in the middle looks old and the other two held tridents and their smooth skin and face made them very handsome that made every woman succumb, it didn't took too long for the two Androids to learn that they are revealed to be Tavai also known as Sea Elves, a quasi-independent group of elves living in a tropical archipelago north of the continent of Fordalt of the same name famous for their affinity to Water-based Magics. They are descendants of Elven Penal Colonists who, after several generations involving scarring transformation rituals and body-altering potion consumptions were adapted to love within both the land and under the sea of the Tavai Archipelago they live in.
"Identify yourself and state your business" Johnathan said while the red energy started to glow brighter ready to shoot.
"Lower down your weapon, our savior. I am a messanger, were here to give you a reward for your people have slain the Terror of the Deep who have caused devastation and haunts our kingdom for hundreds of years, we thanked you."
The one in the middle who looks even older said, if what he said was true then Michael and Johnathan would know he would lie if a tiny bit of trace of it was seen, lying to them is completely useless.
Johnathan steps forward and starts a conversation to the Sea Elves, a long one of course while Michael communicates with Caitlyn in the Network link.
"Madam Caitlyn, we have some Sea Elves we encountered, are we gonna trust them?"
[Of course, follow them, while our Drones entering their underwater kingdom a week ago, we have discover a few artifacts in their treasure room, unfortunately the Drones couldn't enter because the creatures known as Guardians guards there, few Drones got destroyed because of their laser things out of their eyes, for some reason I felt familiar with this dangerous fishes. You could take a few except the Conduit in the heart of their palace because according to the information, taking it would destroy the palace, kinda similar to a dungeon core, so don't, it might cause a relationship between our nation. Not to mention we could made a good relationship out of these Tavai people like we made a diplomate with the Dioz Kingdom]
"Sure, and also does the Number One Gun you were planning to build be almost done?"
[Yes, the Number One Gun was halfway there, once we create it, we might dominate even the heavens soon, but don't let your hopes up because dominating the heavens will take a very long time]
