Chapter 1651 Defending Daimon -Part 40 (Final)

"Understood." Lead Commander Grieves received word that they are going to do the last phase to clear the Metal Ogres once and for all. Some of the soldiers had no idea what was to be done but there were some commanders briefed on it.

They quickly relayed the information to the other soldiers and they understood what was coming. It was actually a sort of expendable cage where oxygen would later be removed within the area. Now that the monsters were trapped within the construction materials, both injured or killed, this was the best time to finish it up.

Putting a cage around the affected area, would secure the area remove the oxygen within the area, and suffocate any of the surviving Metal Ogres within the area. This was to prevent the loss of any other soldiers and Mechanoids attempting to remove the debris and get killed from a desperate attack.

This way, the monsters would be killed and the debris could be removed without too much trouble. Of course, some had argued that the Metal Ogres could attempt to dig through the ground but they had forgotten that there were still multi-layered mines being buried underneath all those debris. Should any Metal Ogres try to dig, there is a high chance the mines would kill them first and cause the debris to splatter them.

Not to mention, the process to remove all oxygen required a few hours to get it all out. The site would later be guarded for the next 24 hours and the mines would be deactivated for the subsequent removal of the debris. If the Metal Ogres do not die from the lack of oxygen, they might as well be indomitable spirits.

For now, while they were waiting for the cage to appear, the soldiers were doing their job hunting any Metal Ogres who were still breathing from the surface. And they were merciless in doing it. Shots and more shots of shotgun slugs were plunged into the bodies of the Metal Ogres to ensure that they were dead. Some of the more unfortunate soldiers managed to be grabbed the Metal Ogres who were relentless even in their moment of death and they were the ones who had lost their legs or arms as others tried to rescue them.

Other than that, most of the Metal Ogres were killed on the exterior and finally, there were choppers with Diamondz Insignia on them carrying in a huge transparent yet expendable cage. As soon as the choppers came close to the 'accident' site, the cage slowly expanded with the choppers getting into position. After which, Diamondz Mechanoids came down from the choppers and started to manually adjust the cage.

Once it was done, a console emerged at the very edge of the cage and the Mechanoid employee started to key in some numbers and they could hear the cage start to rumble. The deed was done. They believed that no matter how strong a Metal Ogre could be if they were lack of oxygen, there was no way they could emerge out of the compressed construction debris.

"A bit of an overkill?" A commander asked General Grieves but the latter did not give any opinion on it.

"It might seem that way but if it could really work and suffocate those Metal Ogres to death, that would be the best."

"Why would they want to do that though? Wouldn't it be better than to just kill them outright with iron and fire?"

"You saw how fierce they could get, and how tough they were. You want to remove the construction debris bit by bit and get ambushed by those critters?" Grieves asked and the commander apologised. "Station a few guards and a few tanks here in case there was some crazy variant like that Twin Swords Metal Ogre.

"Yes, Sir. But if there is really a variant, how do we handle it?"

"Call up the Interim Leader." Grieves did not hesitate and used Jin's name. "He will take care of it. Otherwise, we will need to expend a heck lot of resources to stop it."

"Ehh... Understood Sir." The commander saluted and began to make the arrangements. Even though it was the end, there were no cheers, unlike the time the Metal Ogres got exploded into many pieces when they walked through Line 1. However, there were sighs of relief and some even sit down on the ground to relax for a moment.

Their hands were shaking from all the shooting, their eardrums probably busted from all the loud explosions but they were relieved that it was finally done. And to mark the end of this operation, General Grieves shot a signal flare to tell everyone that it was over.

When General Ost saw that and opened the communication channel between Grieves and Jin to report that they were still prowling the area to check for any remnants of the monster horde. However, Jin told them that his Pandarens would be doing the scouting and defeat any remaining.

"Come back. You all deserve a break."

"At much as we appreciate the gesture, this is still our city. We will do the patrols. Your Pandarens or Pandawans had did a good job aiding us. Please let them rest instead." General Ost said and Grieves concurred with him.

"As much I do not wish to admit this... For an outsider, you did a job better than the military council." Grieves said. "The Western Front Force will do a sweep from the opposite side.

"Alright, then I shall do as you guys recommended. In the meantime, I will get Central Defence to start up the trains and some food for your Western Front guys. Thank you for your hard work and good job guys. I did not expect we can clear this in one day." Jin said and the both of them acknowledged Jin.

"I do not think both of us ever imagine this could be done in a single day too. We assumed the fight would be longer and more protracted within the city." General Ost said. "The losses were minimal compared to what had been estimated and as much I do not wish to admit it as well, the losses might be more if you had not intervened personally. Now we understand why Archduke Dyke had decided to get you to hold the fort and investigate Diamondz."

"You are one person we should not underestimated as an enemy."
