Anomaly 7 is a single Biotech hive mind which which had taken control of entire robotic force was now restricted to the thirteen sentinels. But to contain the threat the Sentinel he has the most influence of them all. He has to maintain his existence as he was now competing with the other fragments which had developed themselves into fully fledged personalities has now taken complete control over the vessels. Acting as a connecting link between the other androids and also acting as a boss giving the vessels Instructions.
The squad of seraphim flew in a fan pattern. Two went over the north and two towards the south and one heading straight towards the opposing army. Seeing this the Head gave an immediate deploy order to anomaly 7. From there thr hive mind connected telepathically and relayed the orders instantly to wherever the droids were deployed.
Even among the generations they are divided according to their combat type. Here are their specifications below :
Long ranged : Markov and Flora.
Melee : Granz, Christina. and Codena
Defenders : Reynar
Magic : Tobias and Cresse
Support : Ori, Bellor and Marie
All rounders : Sekar and Kitara
The all rounders were more like jack of all trades they had little bit of each but as they say
"Jack of all trades, master of none" there are limits to their specialized equipments.
The main difference between the sentinels and normal androids is that. The intelligence is coded in the androids while the intelligence in the sentinels is natural and based on a human life form.
King :
Sentinels eliminat the threat.
Christina eagerly replied
Christina :
Yes sirr, I am very excited to be deployed this early.
Sekar :
Sentinels form units according to the plan and deploy.
There were 5 units made to combat the threat
Unit 1 : Ori, Markov and Christina.
Unit 2 : Bellor, Tobias and Codena
Unit 3 : Kitara and Granz
Unit 4 : Sekar, Flora and Marie
Unit 5 : Reynar and Cresse
All of these units were connected through the hive mind thus they could have constant updates and whereabouts over each other's situation.
The five seraphim were soaring river the skies and trying to go around the border to attack strategic locations.
Such as the communication tower, supply chain, armory, medical area and one heading straight towards the Heads.
Sekar :
Unit 1 and unit 5 intercept the targets north east.
Units 2 and unit 3 take the south. I'll be guarding the third Head.
Unit 4 is now on standby against the bullrushing seraphim. But the other areas needed to be intercepted. This unit 1 and unit 5 flew towards the moth east where unit 1 will intercept the farthest and unit 5 will intercept the nearest. Similarly in the south the unit 3 will take the southernmost and unit 2 the one near to the battlefield.
Christina shouted at the other side of the mic.
Christina :
Sir yes sir. Orders taken.
Meanwhile Codena calculated Sekar.
Codena :
You just want to curry favor by standing beside the head don't you.
Sekar :
How brilliantly deciphered, a piece of my fleeting consciousness.
Seksr is a narcissist who believes that every Sentinel is his own creation because they are their own consciousness.
But the others despise him for this attitude.
Markov :
Will you all shut up. I'm trying to listen here.
About Markov he is a big fan of Russian fishing. Even though he can't eat fish. So he donated everything he has caught to food banks and government regulated orphanages. He is an expert marksman and prefers to stay silent and listen to others rather than giving his own thoughts away.
Meanwhile,
King :
I want to test a theory out bring anomaly 4.
The anomaly 4 was bought by a few soldiers where his entire body was restrained and his face was covered by a breathable cover Phoenix covered his own eyes out of fear as he remembered his memory of trying to commit suicide. It had permanently settled as an unnatural feeling.
The seraphim had one giant eye and from the eye several wings sprouted out. The wings were made both of feathers and iron. But fore charging like a metiorite towards the ground it made metallic sounds. Thus from afar it was a smudge of white and gray hanging in the air. While shining beneath the all enlightening sun. Casting a shadow on the Humans granting them shade from the heat and ultraviolet radiations from the sun.
Sekar :
Don't worry sir I will protect you.
Sekar's hand unfolded to reveal a chainsaw arm. Wildly buzzing to life. Rotating at an incredible speed with teeth designed to tear through both flesh and metal. And still keep thr stability of the user.
Roy :
You have not been given orders to engage yet.
King :
I'm removing the cover don't even indirectly look at his face.
Phoenix quickly turned to the other side while both Jay's and Roy's eyes were fixed on the Seraphim charging towards them. The smudge in the sky was getting bigger and bigger.
Roy removed the cover and when the seraphim was in the perceivable distance it perceived the anomaly 4. It went absolutely ballistic. It's eyes immediately was filled eith blood it's eyes shriveled they wings of the seraphim started shedding it shrieked in an unknown vocal and charged it's laser and wildly started spewing it in random directions.
The King gave orders for barriers to be raised. A temporary barrier was deployed which covered the entire camp. The laser energy was reflected as well excess energy was absorbed to empower the barrier even more. From the ground it would seem like the laser just changed direction as if it had hit a mirror.
The more time it was exposed to anomaly 4 the more it went ballistic. It even damaged their own troops and vaporised an entire batch of troops in an 5 meter radius. Before it used it's own steel wing to stab it's eye and shrieked even more as it's body which was levitating in the air fell down high from the sky and when it touched the ground it created a tremor as it dug a hole for itself and died in it.
This broke the opposing morale even more. Firstly their allies now a seraphim had bitten the dust.
While on the other side there were 0 deaths. Although there was 1 injury because a worker fell and hurt himself badly while being on a run to shelve the supplies. And was being currently treated.
Meanwhile on the other side.
General :
How is the tunnel digging proceeding.
Captain :
Not good it seems that they have anticipated our every move. While digging there were explosives rigged even under the ground. And we have also lost one of our seraphims.
The other seraphins are right now under combat.
General :
They have something that can cause even a seraphim to kill itself. Thus war is not on our side. If somehow we can penetrate their defenses we can regain our ground.
We still have time before the day ends.
This is a war of attrition. Mindlessly throwing our troops won't get us anywhere. Order the troops to hold their position. They have something that can kill the seraphim I'm a fell swoop.
As the words of the commander the situation was soon reflected on the battlefield as after a big loss they decided to stand their ground neither moving forwards nor backwards. While they hoped the seraphim would circumvent the enemy defenses and weaken them.
Meanwhile, on the northern east.
The Seraphim was trying to take a long route and circle around the land of Dragons to strike directly at their heart the capital. And unit 1 was connected with an external handler as they entered the land of dragons. They thought that they would be welcome. Under the Foundation they have an autonomous right to the barren land and the mountains. Inhabiting various species of dragons.
They didn't take both the Seraphim and Sentinels kindly. As behind the sentinels many dragons tried to ambush it.
The seraphim was like a giant sword with wings with an eye oenetrating from the Hilt. Many dragons flew up to the seraphim and bit the sword. And with their fiery breath melt to scrap.
The seraphim is the second last stage before Archangels. The seraphim had gained sentience over itself and gained a human form. But it is still monstrous. It can survive high temperatures.
Christina :
Hello dragons of the Foundation we are your allies. Please don't hurt us.
Markov :
...
Ori :
Whhh what should we do. There are dragons everywhere.
Ori, another personality which sprang out from the original. She is specialized in support. Supplying ammo, mana and first aid over long distances. She's afraid of scary things and dragons rank very high. Alongside spiders even though both don't want anything to do with her.
Markov did not respond. Instead he readied his sniper rifle. And using the built in iron sights he aimed at the Seraphim and shot the bullet. He had already accounted for elevation, distance the bullet could travel, the speed of the bullet, wind speed and errors into account.
Thus the bullet hit the seraphim right in the target and it fell down to the ground. While Markov just loaded another bullet into the chamber.
