《New Game+》Chapter Three: Mission Star Killer
Advertisement
The stellar wars intensified in space. The Full Divide allowed evasive maneuvers for the compartments minimizing the number of dropships that could penetrate to the different compartments.
“Have the fleet focus on defending the Balmung.” The captain ordered. Soon he stared in frustration at the one monitor most of the crew drew their attention too.
The thin frame of Seeker Carlean stood confidently amidst the dead bodies and burning metals.
Seeker Carlean’s right arm was fractured. The last battles final seconds ended in what looked like a blur with Carlean on the winning end. The blue ring started glowing again.
“This is it, boys. We are about to find out if our intel's right or we die for nothing.” Seeker broadcasted his message to all Link-accomplished soldiers.
“Squadrons, in three…two…one. Initiate!” Seeker commanded. All Link-accomplished soldiers flipped the switch at the same time.
At a push of the buttons, various mechanisms installed on the engines in the different compartments of the Balmung began to light up. The star energy that held all the compartments together started to tremble.
"What's happening?" The Captain panicked.
The pilots of the Balmung quickly checked all system settings in an attempt to understand the anomaly occurring. On the compartments which the different squads managed to reconfigure, the electrical energy which connected the compartment to the star energy slowly turned red in color. Of the thirty-four compartments, a total of sixteen compartments were configured.
The tremors that rang out on all compartments started increasing. The movement of the star energy and the orbit of the compartments of the Balmung were now getting out of order. Compartments started to crash with one another at the distortion of the star energy.
In the Central Sector, Seeker started dashing and running around the compartment trying to keep his balance. The compartments were in chaos and all on board the Balmung struggled to keep a good footing.
“Dropships! Initiate pick up! Squadrons send your pings!” Seeker commanded as he dashed towards the nearest window to observe the situation outside.

Several dropships which seemed to be zooming in confusion then started to dash at specific areas of the Balmung. The dropships penetrated through the thick metal and then stabilized the hole which it generated. The surviving members of the different squadrons immediately boarded the ships.
“We did it! And we’re alive!” Suarez rejoiced.
“Commander, the dropship has arrived. We are about to detach and head back home.” A report came in.
Seeker stood with a grim expression as he saw the state of the star energy.
"It's not enough!" Seeker frowned.
A mental response spoke back. "General, the Star Core is slowly increasing in density and energy. By the looks of it, our mission is a success."
"The speed! That's the problem! The rate of its increase is too slow! If some of the compartments detach themselves from the Star Core our mission will fail!" The General sent back angrily.
Boom!
A sudden crash on the central compartment was felt. A dropship had rammed through the compartment. The bullet-like funnel in its front pierced through the walls but immediately, several panels expanded locking the gaps created from the crash. The pressure in the room immediately stabilized.
"General! I'm here to pick you up!" A mental message spoke directly to Seeker.
Seeker was deep in thought at this point. For a human with an Unlocking of 70%, it was rare for him to have paused and thought.
"General!" The mental message shouted once again.
"Fish, detach from my compartment. Don't pick me up." Seeker ordered solemnly.
"What?" Various mental messages immediately cried in Seekers thoughts.
"Listen up everyone. Every second count at this point. If any compartments disconnect themselves from the Star Energy, the mission will fail. My Four Force Accelerator is designed as a miniature model of Star Energy. In theory, I can detonate the FFA energy in the core if I undo the compression on each of the FFA. The energy would be similar to having an additional four compartments compartmentalize. I may even immediately overload the energy. It should cause enough increase in the Star Core to accomplish the mission. Every second count! This is my last order. I can only allow 30 seconds before I make my jump. Ensure that you are in space at 15 seconds. No questions." Seeker's tone was firm and decisive.

No mental messages were sent back to Seeker. A few seconds since the last message the dropship piloted by Fish suddenly detached itself from the central compartment.
"Good." Seeker smiled. He was receiving mental messages from all the surviving teams. Gryphon, Chimera, Basilisk, Wyvern, Phoenix and even his own team reported having successfully boarded the escape dropships which have returned.
"A General could never ask for such a decisive and trusting team such as you." Seeker sent his message with tears in his eyes.
"Zeek." Zera sent back.
"Zera, protect our home." Seeker sent as he dashed towards a door. A mask suddenly covered Seeker’s face as he clicked on a small button near his neck. Oxygen was then released. Once he was a foot away from the door, Seeker stopped. Behind this door was the hole left by the dropships penetration.
Seeker banged the hilt of his sword pushing the button of the door. As the door opened, Seeker was sucked in by the immense change of pressure. As he was sucked out in space, he engaged the Four Force Accelerator and he flew towards the Star energy which held all of the Balmung’s compartment. Seeker tinkered with his suit and the dark blue blast emitted by the Four Force Accelerator started turning to a shade of red.
When he made the jump all the dropships were already fleeing from the Balmung. Seeker closed his eyes as he neared the electrical energy. The burst of the Four Force Accelerator increased to the maximum. And right before Seeker collided with the electrical energy, he smiled.
"Thank you." A short and simple mental message was sent.
The moment Seeker collided with the electrical energy holding Sector Nine, he was immediately sucked in towards the core of the energy holding the Balmungs parts. A miniature red explosion could be seen and the Star energy immediately gave a brighter shade of red.
The trembling throughout the Balmung's compartments increased. The compartments started to merge into the star energy as if something was sucking everything towards the center. But before all the compartments could merge in the center...
BOOM!
The star energy exploded. A Yellow-green like flame rushed out incinerating everything in its path. The shockwave was so immense that the other Gigas Class orbiters nearby were shaken by the shockwave. All the stellar capable jets of the UN army pushed their ships speed to the max Mach speed it could manage.
Because of the sudden shockwave which shook almost all ships only the UN armies were prepared to get away from the massive flames that continued to envelop the space. The Gigas Class orbiters could only sit and watch as the raging blaze approached and disintegrated them. Some of the U.N's Armies Stellar-capable ships was also erased from existence. But the losses from this friendly fire was far outweighed by the gain.
The entire Orbital fleet was wiped out of existence.
As stellar-capable jets of the UN’s surviving fleet returned to Earths atmosphere, the whole world was in celebration. They now had achieved peace for the next months or maybe even years to come. Humanity had hope once more. Earth now has more time to prepare and fight for the next battle.
But no sound of victory was heard in the Myth Squadron dropships returning to Earth. For them, this was a pyrrhic victory. They won the war but lost their General.
Mission Star Killer, Codenamed: Super Nova, Successful.
Victory attributed to the brave sacrifice of the 6-Star General, Stellar General Seeker Carlean.

8 2509Rise for the Sky [Slow-Pace Multi-Lead Dungeon Crawler]
Sixty people have awoken at the bottom of a one hundred floor dungeon. Together they must confront the terror of monsters and seek the answers to why they are here. Expectations: This story is written from multiple perspectives, male and female. Most chapters are a single person, but there will be chapters where there are a couple of quick scenes with different people. The story does take place in a dungeon, but there is no leveling system. This a realistic take on the classic litRPG and iskai tropes written like a traditional novel. There is a profanity warning because I wish to be natural with how people talk and cursing is a thing people do. So it will happen where it makes sense. Gore is warned because this is a realistic take, and people will be torn apart by monsters. I don't plan to be overly detailed with it but be warned it will happen. Updates Every Monday. Chapters will be between 3,000 to 5,000 words. Fulfill Patreon goals to increase updates
8 198The Fabled Islands
Somewhere out there, in the great expanse of space and time, exist the Fabled Islands. Nobody knows how or why they exist, but only that it is a strange and special place that operates under laws separate from the universe. The Fabled Islands are made up of vast floating continents. They vary in size, with some ranging from the surface area of a small planet, to a star. If you look at them from afar, you would find that they are placed in a line. Each island is separated by a vast amount of space, so there is only one way to travel from one island to the next; a gateway on the edge of the island. Each island is governed by strange rules. The only thing they share in common, is that the rules are governed by the System. The rules change vastly from one island to the next, so you must quickly adapt. Tristan was raised on the first island, Fertility Island, and has finally been allowed to become a Brave; a respected profession throughout the islands. Fertility Island is a peaceful island. There are hardly any monsters, the land is fertile, and the people kind. This is the complete opposite of what Tristan wants. Bring on the monsters! Bring on the magical items! I want adventure, loot, and to put my life on the line! Where are the dungeons, caverns, and mountains to be explored? Where is the mythical equipment to be found? The next island? Then the next island I will go! His adventure begins now.
