At a certain deserted part of the continent, Antarctica.
This was one of the numerous ruins left from the great battle of supremacy decades ago that was not restored to its previous state.
Dilapidated buildings filled the surrounding, evident of the fact that this place was once a city. Some of the buildings were already completely submerged by the snow, only the taller ones could still faintly be seen.
Over the years, the wear and tear of age already affected them and they now seemed like a fragile wood that would break with just a slight bend.
Across the all-encompassing world of ice and snow that submerged this city, depressions could be seen on various parts which were a testament to the great war that wreaked havoc here decades ago.
The chilly wind in the atmosphere blew at times gently, while at other times roughly, making sure that the temperature in this region was super cold 24/7.
Structures like mini-mountains covered in snow-filled some parts of the city, while at other sides were filled with mountain-like icebergs formed entirely out of snow and ice.
Few animals were in this region because of the chilly cold, but some were still able to thrive and survive here. They populated the region, filling it with vitality and the beauty of nature.
A small freezing lake was at a corner of the city, and penguins could be seen jumping around it while others dove inside the chilly coldness of the water.
On the surface of the lake, a tiny black object suddenly emerged out of the water. It was so tiny that the penguins swimming around it could not notice a thing.
The tiny black object rotated slightly in place, it was like it was secretly observing and taking notice of any notable factors in the surroundings.
As it rotated in a negligible manner, it suddenly paused in a certain direction. Then, slowly like it didn’t discover anything, it continued rotating slightly before silently being submerged back inside the water.
“2 Lauren beings on patrol discovered”.
“Every other discovery negligible”.
This mechanical and almost silent voice to the surrounding lake water resounded in the comms of some soldiers in military attire.
Without needing to exchange any words between themselves, they activated their exotic armors and silently emerged out of the lake. They moved in sync like the perfect cogs of machinery.
Emerging out of the lake, the nearby penguins were not alerted nor could they see anyone- all the soldiers were currently invisible. Without a word, the soldiers divided into 3 parts and went in different directions.
A few meters away, a strange humanoid creature with a blue scaly body, glowing scarlet eyes, and buff muscles like a silverback Gorilla squatted close to the floor as it surveyed its surroundings alertly.
Mysterious patterns flickered in its scarlet eyes, making them seem like the eyes of truth that could see through any illusion and disguise.
Suddenly, its nose twitched. It instinctively raised its head a little higher to sniff at the surroundings. Its eyes slowly changed like it just discovered a terrifying enemy, it raised its nose higher to confirm the smell.
Ptui!
A bullet suddenly hit its scaly blue head. It subconsciously tried to turn and escape, but the paralysis bullet held it in place.
Before it could recover, a sword was slashed 8 times and its blue body was dissected into 8 pieces. Its eyes flickered in agony and unwillingness for a few more minutes after this but it could do little as it finally died.
A few dozen meters away, the same thing happened as the 2nd unit of soldiers easily finished the Lauren soldier who hid there on the lookout.
Without a word, they continued their mission, penetrating deeper inside this deserted ruin. On the way, they met and killed 8 other Lauren soldiers.
…
Underground, a group of Lauren soldiers was in what seemed like a military bunker. They seemed to be guarding something as they formed a circular battle formation around the protection target.
The target of protection was another Lauren soldier, the only difference was that she was beautiful, slimmer, and less buff with muscles than all the others.
Also, she had long antennas on her head that glowed with a gentle blue light.
Right now, her beautiful fluttering eyes were shut tightly like she was in a deep sleep. Suddenly, her scarlet eyes snapped open as she jumped up while panting like she just woke from a nightmare.
The other Lauren soldiers protecting her tensed upon feeling this but they did not turn to check on her, only one who was also leaner than the others turned to face her.
He asked in an indiscernible language. “0&%^$#?”
The female Lauren soldier looked at him with unwillingness, frustration, and horror in her eyes. “!@#%^($!” [Humans- Helix!]
As soon as they heard what she said, the Lauren soldiers grew solemn expressions on their faces while the slim Lauren soldier carried her and started dashing towards a narrow tunnel immediately.
Boom!
A pitch-black sword with a dark energy force revolving around it tore a hole through the walls of the military bunker.
Through this hole, 12 soldiers immediately rushed inside the secret Lauren base. 3 soldiers led this operation, Elite Commander Helix, Elite Commander Aragon, and Elite Commander Lam.
This lineup alone was enough to tell the importance of the operation.
Immediately as the human soldiers entered, the Lauren soldiers lunged at them with their weapons in hand.
Elite Commander Aragon suddenly clenched his gloved hands, sprouting raging fire from mid-air as he punched his way through the Lauren soldiers.
He was not left to go free for long though, a Lauren soldier who was more buffer than the others suddenly appeared. On his head was embedded a big (&) symbol, this was the symbol for Lauren Commanders.
Raising his hands, the ice in the surrounding suddenly converged towards him then he rushed forward and punched hard at the Elite Commander.
Boom!
Shockingly, this Lauren soldier overpowered the Elite Commander in just one punch. Without a word, Elite Commander Lam went to reinforce his companion, and his uniqueness was similar to the Lauren Commander- Ice.
As they both restrained the Lauren Commander, the 5th rank high-grade soldiers behind them were unrestrained as they hunted down the other Lauren soldiers.
On the other side, before the slim Lauren soldier could escape with the female Lauren soldier, blacklight materialized before him and from this darkness stepped out Elite Commander Helix.
His eyes were now a pitch-black color, his army uniform fluttered without any wind blowing as a black energy force kept on revolving around him.
Seeing him, the 2 Lauren soldiers showed expressions of horror but they immediately decided to give their all.
The slim male Lauren soldier controlled a Green uniqueness as his eyes suddenly turned dark green, and without hesitation, he rushed at the human Elite Commander.
Unlike him, the slim female Lauren soldier controlled a gentle Blue uniqueness. It flowed gently like water streams containing hypnosis powers but they also had a hidden destructiveness in them.
Without hesitation, she joined her comrade and clashed with the dreaded human Elite Commander.
Boom!
…
15 minutes later, the slim male Lauren soldier was already dead, including the Lauren Commander and all the underlings. Only the severely bleeding slim female Lauren soldier was left alive.
Seeing the hated Elite Commander walking towards her, she bit her lips, grounded her lips, and called out.
“Helix!”
The Elite Commander paused on hearing that, but it didn’t last as he continued towards her with a poker look on his face.
“You won’t get anything from me, just kill me”.
As she spoke, her blue energy uniqueness suddenly flared, making her body bloat like she was about to explode herself but Helix still had a nonchalant look on his cold face.
His eyes turned pitch-black again, he glared at his target as all her uniqueness powers faded like the wind, returning her to her normal state.
Once this was done, she fell down, exhausted completely.
Without a word, the Elite Commander bent down, hauled her over his shoulders before turning to leave with his companions.
“Last Lauren base has been cleaned”. He spoke into his comm.
Hearing his words, the female Lauren soldier’s expression twisted amid her exhaustion and pain.
She spat out. “Humanity will fall…”
