Chapter 313: When Overcomers Move

Every continent, every nation had a different news report featured in their headlines. The sudden attacks and terrorizing movements of various mysterious groups had stunned the world.

The power that some caught on camera was shocking. 

In the past weeks after the Kraken fell, the Dragon's Fangs had reemerged in the world again. They blamed One China for the death of the Dragon and wanted to avenge the fallen Dragon.

At first, One China laughed at these accusations. But then the various bases near the Mongolian region were attacked. An army had suddenly surfaced. Leading the army was the well-known team that the Underworld dared not offend.

The Dragon's Fangs had indeed survived. Eight of the original thirteen members had surfaced, and a mysterious woman who had the Canadian Frost appeared along with them. The woman was revealed to be the Dragon's widow and had the power to destroy a base. The many recorded videos of the battle revealed that these Dragon Fangs were supermen. While they seemed to have no Exoskeleton, they fought with incredible strength.

One of the Fangs was recorded to cut down an entire Armor with a sword. Another was seen punching through Exoskeletons. A ghost was also seen, and a strange cloud of poison followed another.

The news in One China focused on that. Many believed that the technology that only the WGP had, the rumored Skin-Suits, were worn by these men. Others think that these men had One China's version of the Australian Dawn soldiers.

But this news later faded as another shocking news occurred.

India rebelled, and overnight, they declared their sovereignty and gifted One China with all officials' severed head in India. The many citizens in India that wanted to retreat to One China were forced to pay a significant toll. Most who returned to One China were all Chinese. Those of Indian descent who choose to stay as a new self-proclaimed President had emerged. 

It demanded China recognize its sovereignty and sent an elite team of soldiers to attack its base.

Because of the Dragon's Fangs threatening China for weeks, the forces based in the bases were few. But recorded videos of the battle in the few bases that separated India and China showed that werewolves were attacking.

India only took the bases and claimed that it would retain the land that it used to have before the Third World War.

In the West, another uproar occurred.

The Americas had created a huge, huge wall separating South and North Americas from Central Americas back when Central America revolted and nearly conquered all of the Americas. As the leaders of Central America refused to bow down to America, South and North's position issued a trade embargo that caused a decline in the economy, science, and military in Central America. These lands were 'living examples of dystopia'. And yet, a country that was believed to have no technological capacity broke the large barricade and caused havoc in the Americas. A war broke that left the nearby cities in the barricade devastated. While America held its position, it was in a state of emergency, as another powerful force attacked in the northern region.

Canada had employed a powerful Frost technology, and 'flying humans' numbering over fifty was said to have infiltrated the area. Without any techs on these humans that would have marked them for heat or magnetic-related attacks, the humans easily flew over the defense lines. The wind had also ragged as a powerful squall occurred.

But strangely enough, although Canada managed to conquer one of the strategic forts, they immediately retreated.

The Middle-Eastern and European region was not spared from falling into conflict.

The Kraken had resurfaced in those regions as it was pressuring all nations to capture the 'Planteds' that they had found in their base. This Kraken threatened the Caliphates and Africa, but a mysterious group appeared on the third day of their appearance.

They rode large underwater vehicles that were strangely based on fictional monsters of a certain game franchise. They called themselves Pioneers and were comprised of many notable and respected people in the African and Caliphate region. They used amazing techs that were unknown to the WGP.

These were all revealed as the WGP even streamed the battle for the world to see.

Ever since the WGP's defeat, it was looking for a moment to showcase its strength. The Pioneers controlled a strange large robot that looked similar to the Golems of the Caliphates. 

The Kraken, under the command of Fleet Admiral Intrik Roovite was able to deflect the incoming attack. But soon, various weapons of Mass Destruction were used, and the mysterious groups that fought them finally revealed themselves when the Atlantis sustained heavy damage. But then, it was later revealed that the Kraken had already combined with the Atlantis and had an Emperor guarding it.

Even then, the battle was tilting to the advantage of the Pioneers. They revealed technology after technology to counter the techs that the WGP used. Even more shocking was that although the WGP had long purged all 'Planteds' that spread all over the world, traitors still appeared.

The WGP believe that these Pioneers had Mind-Controlled as the very allies who fought with them and contributed greatly would suddenly betray them for no odd reason.

It was a formidable battle that forced one of the Emperors to use its Invoking.

The Call of Calamity was used. It created a powerful magnetic field that distorted the sensors of everything nearby. The moment it was summoned, not even the Pioneers' best techs could counter the attacks, and all the ships fell into the sea.

Soon, the Pioneers retreated, but they were hunted down by a fleet led by New Great Britain. Admiral Ramsden had surfaced once more and offered to be of full use to the WGP.

Various mysterious organizations came into existence. All news channels looked at the many conspiracy theorists that looked into strange techs that were rumored to exist.

The sightings of werewolves and vampires were even revisited. Black magic, voodoo, and even reported and its claims studied as they believed it could have been an advanced science.

The world fell to chaos. Currency was losing its value as trade plummeted. A new economic system was being proposed, and various countries that were tied by land created their form of trade and introduced a new currency.

To the Unlocked, they knew who or what was making these great battles. When the Overcomers move, the world will move with them.

In the Pangea and SPU region, the headlines all talked about the battle between King Naga and the Lingkaran.

The Lingkaran was believed to have sunk down deep underwater, and this King Naga vanished along with it.

There were various theories of what occurred. Many believed that the strange fluctuations that the Lingkaran gave off and the powerful energy was the Lingkaran blowing itself up to take the King Naga along with it. The King Naga never surfaced, and SPU lost all contact with them.

The King Naga had docked in it and looked like a worm devouring the Lingkaran. With the new techs available, the King Naga was being transformed to be a part of the Lingkaran.

Lynd was lying down in a specialized chamber inside the Lingkaran. It had been three days since his battle against Seeker. He watched the news and couldn't help but whistle as he watched the news. He had been switching from the news and from watching Eagle's sermons.

The doors opened, and Seeker stepped inside.

"You alright?" Seeker asked as he noticed the lost expression of Lynd.

"Yeah. It's just amazing. I can't believe that in a short few days, we've flipped over the world. It's so chaotic now.

"Wars and rumors of wars. As Eagle predicted."

"Is the Bible Study going to happen now?"

"No. Eagle found that it was best if we are able to bring out the other secret organizations, the Families, basically, any group that is a Seed of the Lost Primordial. Once we have it, we begin the Bible Study. Of course, such a gathering would be difficult to pull off. We'd need a Continental War to get all the Unlocked in that place."

"Does it really have to be an in-person event? I mean, I'm just listening at his sermons, and I already believe."

"It has to be. We need the full effect of his Path. In short, we must allow ourselves to be utterly convinced. Even the Tyrant Empress agreed on this."

"Did their mission succeed?"

"The Tyrant Empress? Come on, Lynd. She's practically the strongest among Overcomers. At least, right now, she is. You think she failed?"

"So this Admiral Roovite is ours?"

"Oh no. She didn't appear before him. We need him. The best spy is a spy that we didn't own. Take a look at what happened in that chaos! The WGP is even more paranoid now. They thought they had dealt with their traitor issue, but now, the Tyrant Empress just showed them her face, and nearly a third of that Kraken betrayed the WGP.

"A third?! Wow. You really can't trust the media. They said that over fifty betrayed the WGP."

"Since when has the media been unbiased? We even use the media to our own convenience."

"When will Meng and Amir Mann conquer One China?"

"We're waiting for the Presiders to move. Because we've leaked the truth of Planteds in the Caliphate region, most of the nations followed suit and discovered Planteds among them. And right now, the number of Pioneers and Planted in the Americas are being wiped clean by Richie. He's already completed his team."

"Did your Grandmother join?"

"No. We're still thinking of a way to get her to Nogard."

"Still… She should be like, the oldest Unlocked that we have next to Nogard."

"I hear that there's a very wild love story behind my grandfather and her. Her Path could be the science behind the Thought Transmitter!" Seeker revealed.

"WHAT?!" Lynd was shocked.

"Yeah! Richie felt something odd in the vibrations around him. So while his team began to attack the barrier in South America, he went in and met my grandma."

Lynd didn't know what to say but glanced at the freakish friend of his.

"I am never comparing myself to you again. I can't believe I dared to believe that I am the Way!"

"Well, you are. Thanks to your help, we now have a workable framework to apply various techs and create a dantian."

"So what's next for us? I mean, the Presiders ought to be busy gathering their men. They want to stabilize the region, and I understand the plan is to let them… We want them to come to Earth forcibly, and the Realm King was able to find a few of them… If I'm looking at the timetable right, we have around eight months till our big move!"

"Yes. But don't worry. We will be busy. Meryl is returning to Pangea. And along with Cliff and her girlfriend Charm, we will be moving on our own!"

"Wow. It's like the teen band is all back together! We're are he headed?"

"South America. But our goal is to find the secret underwater city in that area."

"There's actually an Underwater city in this world?"

"Yes. Not everyone welcomed the WGP when they rose to power. Back then, technology to do that was already completed. The WGP forced most nations to follow their protocol and would only create a limited number of large megastructures. But by then, thousands and thousands had already fled to go to the sea and refused to help the world recover. The Kraken guards the top, while the Atlantis is designed for watching over these cities. And that's where we are trying to go."
