《A Journey Through the Worlds.》071: Blue Mambas.

After they finally entered the range of his ability, he opened his mouth and in a strong voice he told them about what he saw.
Hearing that, Abram said after a while of contemplating:
"I can't feel most of those, which means one of three things, first they found a way to hide from my ability, which can be crossed out as they probably don't even know about me, let alone find a way to deal with my ability this quick.
"The second is that there's something in those things that is effecting my sense and that it's happening unintentionally, and this can be true as even though something like this don't exist in our Area, it might exist in theirs, but that didn't happen in the last battle against them as I was able to feel them all so the chance of that is also way too small.
"And here comes the third possibility which is... Those flying things heading toward us, that Barney was able to feel and I didn't feel any life in them have no one inside them."
Abram's explanation was acceptable, as it took most of the things into consideration, so everyone there didn't add anything as they just waited for the battle to start to make sure.
By the times the warships and careers of Area 02 become apparent to everyone; all the divine armies were ready for the fight.
There were many weird new types of warships and vehicles among the army which appeared in front of them.
One type of the two most eye catching was one that was huge, bigger than anything they saw from Area 01, and the second was a blue machine which seemed flat, to a point that you can't possibly imagine a person inside of it, and those were hovering in the sky, by engines under them, they moved by the speed of the army.
"I can only feel life on those huge flying things, the ones which are way bigger than usual." Abram said while pointing at the carriers, the carriers were way bigger then usual warships and they were being surrounded by the other normal sized warships as if protecting them.
Just as Abram pointed which warships he felt life from, the carriers started landing, and they did that slowly.
After they landed big doors from their side and behind opened up, and from them soldiers got down, from their armor, it was apparent that they were of the elite, each and every one of them.
There was also another type of warships which was also quite big, they also landed and from them different types of vehicles landed.
After all the soldiers were on the ground the carriers turned around and left, while the normal warships started hovering above the soldiers, who were moving in at a great speed while still keeping a perfect formation.
Seeing that Athena whistled, and as she did the Ice Phoenix lifted its head released a loud screech and flow toward them.

And as it did that Athena said:
"It is probably the third possibility, there are no humans inside those flying things."
The other Gods also sent their mounts, they didn't want their soldiers to going the fight yet.
But this time as the seven Gods' mounts started flying toward the warships and the soldiers, the almost flat aircrafts moved toward them and fired a few missiles at them, their speed was astonishing, and the mounts weren't expecting that those planes would be that fast so all of them except Lana's dragonflies' queen which was able to avoid it by few meters, got hit, they didn't suffer much damage but they got mad.
Seeing that they were able to land a hit, the blue Mambas didn't try to land another one, they all turned around split up and moved toward different directions.
And just as they expected the mounts of the seven Gods all turned around and followed them after releasing angry roars.
As the four heads of the alliance, who were watching what was happening through a drone saw that they all release breaths of relief and smiled, at the very least the blue Mambas were able to deal with those monsters and keep them busy for a while.
The seven mounts kept on chasing the blue Mambas, but to matter how fast they tried going they couldn't keep up, the only monster that could catch up to them was Adam's Mngel's Messenger it was after all the fastest being in Area 02.
At first the monsters were getting close to the blue Mambas, but then a sonic boom happened and the later accelerated to an astonishing speed, leaving all the monsters behind, but that didn't stay for long as soon after that all the mounts there released roars and accelerated, as each and every one of them broke the sound barrier.
And as that happened again, the mounts and the blue Mambas resumed their chase.
They kept on accelerating and accelerating till finally some of the mounts weren't able to keep up with that speed.
The first to start falling behind was Snake's Two Headed Snake, as it wasn't a speed based monster, it stopped at the speed of 1 km/s and after it, the others started showing signs of falling behind.
The second to fall down was, Lucas's chief Earth Dragon, as it also wasn't a speed type, after that, it was Ethan's Phoenix and after it, it was Lana's Dragonflies queen which had a major advantage on term of maneuvers, reflexes and even short distance speed, but was totally horrible when it comes to long distance speed chases, leaving the Athena's Ice Phoenix, Carlos's Roc and finally, Adam's Angel's Messenger.
Adam's mount was to be expected, because it was the fastest being in the world, but the Athena's Ice Phoenix and Carlos Roc being able to hold on for that long was a surprise.
Finally after The Blue Mamba's made it to the speed of 3 km/s Athena's Ice Phoenix started falling back, which left only Carlos's Roc and Adam's Angel's Messenger chasing their respective Blue Mambas, till finally the Roc also started falling back leaving the only one mount able to keep up with The Blue Mamba it was following.

The angel's messenger was able to make it to the same speed as The Blue Mamba which it was following, which was the full speed for both of them or that's what appeared to people, because the Angel's Messenger seemed as if it wanted to keep on going.
But as a faint unnoticed white light started covering its body, it suddenly started falling back, and decreasing its speed, made a turn and started returning to the battlefield, it wasn't the only one doing that the other mounts too were returning.
Seeing that the faces of three of the four big leaders of Area 01 changed, but just as they started freaking out a little bit, Moore said:
"don't worry the AI is programed to keep the mounts occupied for as long as possible, it will not stop just like this." And just as he said, all the blue Mambas that were chased to different places turned around to the battlefield and started attacking normal soldiers, till finally the mounts started chasing them again, and that kept on repeating for a long time.
The blue Mamba's AI was so advanced and their maneuvers were something a human can never hope to get, they also learned the patterns of the monsters which were following them while they ran, as what they would do before an attack or,their body movement before taking a turn… all of that and more was being studied.
While that chase was happening between the blue Mambas and the mounts, the war was raging down below.
That time the ones who had an advantage were the soldiers from Area 01 as even though the people from Area 02 had the seven Gods, that unstoppable power, they were just seven people and they had to deal with that huge fleet of warships and other vehicles of Area 01.
And the soldiers of Area 02 weren't as much as the soldiers of Area 01 which added a lot more pressure, not to mention that on top of them being more, the soldiers that they were against that time weren't just normal soldiers like the time before, instead they were elite soldiers, with unhuman reflexes and power, not to mention the weapons that they had were stronger then the weapons that the normal soldiers used.
This time the fight lasted longer than before with no winner decided, as both sides lost a lot.
For Area 01 they lost a lot of soldiers and most of their warships, while the loses on the side of Area 02 weren't that small either as they lost a lot of people, and even though their human losses weren't as much, the number of mounts they lost were astonishing.
For the Divine Armies their mounts were just like another part of them, they had gone through a lot of different and dangerous situations together, they even understood and knew their mounts better then they knew and understood their families, so losing them was just like losing a part of them, and that made their hate for Area 01 grow even bigger.
Inside the building that Lucas made for the meeting of the seven Gods, all the seven Gods and important people who had an important part in the war were there.
"My great God, I did as you asked and I followed them without getting found, and from what I saw it seems that they had made the western side of this continent as their base of operation." A man who was camouflaged from head to toe said while kneeling at the feet of Snake.
The man was a member of Snake's shadows, the shadows were a group under Snake, and they were the best scouting tracking and assassination team in Area 01, no one knew who many shadows there was, or the abilities that they had, it was one of the most mysterious teams in Area 02.
"So they really did that." Ethan murmured
.
They had expected that the people from Area 01 would make their base in the opposite side of the continent to where, as that was the best way to keep them from advancing any further.
So they decided to make sure of that and see where the retreating troops of Area 01 were returning, and from what the shadow had just said it seemed that what they had expected did actually happened.
"With Adam's ability we shouldn't worry about any surprise attacks or anything like that, but that can't be said about them, so them making their base there gives us no disadvantages at all, but instead it can make it easier for us to give one big attack." Lucas said.
"It's just as you said, that makes no different at all, what's important right now is the formation." Athena said.
"Yes it is the most important thing right now, after all if we weren't outnumbered today we wouldn't have lost that much fighters, and the fight could have ended in a better way for us." Carlos said.
"We should give a big blow soon before they get used to the way we fight and our abilities." Snake added.
Then that they all looked at Adam who after staying silent for a while:
"Don't worry the formation will be ready soon enough, probably by tomorrow morning, there's no reason to worry about that at all."
***
Half a month passed just like that 'new half a month, which is a month and a week in the old timing.'
In that half a month a lot of thing happened in many parts of New Earth, and we will mention all of them starting from the top of Barbarossa.

Shift (Ben 10+DCU Fanfiction)
Omnitrix+ DCU, what's not to like? The main character will not be Ben Tennyson, rather someone from our world who gains the Omnitrix Hello! This fanfiction Shift is what I wanted to do for an homage to what I thought were underrated pieces of media, Ben 10 and some DCU characters. However, I would be remiss if I didn’t add context to two of the major works that inspired Shift, Dial, and A Practical Guide to Evil. Dial is another ben 10 fanfiction, however that story takes place in the MCU, and with an adult that is already a grown-up at the beginning of the story. Dial, by my own accounts, is more superficially Like shift, even though the Omnitrix is a central device in both. My protagonist starts out around 18 years old, so is less serious and can build relationships with some of the junior justice league members, and then later on in the story meet the Justice League officially. The tone will be more light-hearted at the beginning of the story as teenagers are known to use sarcasm and jokes at each other’s expense. Furthermore, in Dial, the protagonist has a well-developed knowledge of the MCU which he uses to have knowledge on events and characters, that the character in Shift will not have. While the MC will have some knowledge of people's abilities, lesser-known characters and people's real identities will be not included as much, but the MC of Shift will have some knowledge. APGTE's influence is deeper than Dials'. The epigraphs at the beginning of every chapter are an example of that, a place for light-hearted jokes and worldbuilding that's not pure exposition, but I also want to incorporate narrative stories to Shift (heroes win more than lose, providence, etc) on a lighthearted scale. While the heroes of Shift will have to work to win against villains, the MC of Shift will be allowed limited precognition, through narratives tropes and archetypes as a trade-off of less knowledge of the DCU. For example, a villain a hero faces might monologue, but the MC will not instinctively know how to counter every villain they encounter. I also wanted to bring in more realism than usual superhero stories, ie: the MC cannot just walk and have a meeting with Batman or Superman, he would have to “work his way up” in terms of credibility and whatnot. The Aliens that show up in Shift I tried to make different than the ones in Dial, just to share the love for lesser-known characters. And to make it fairer for the villains of the DCU, the main character will not wantonly use if gain at all an Alien X or a ben 10 form of Kryptonians, just so the characters have to work a little bit for victory. I urge anyone reading to consider checking out both APGTE and Dial as they are both amazing works, and I hope you enjoy them. The beginning of how the MC enters the DCU will not be as important as him actually existing in that universe, so that is why a ton of time is not spent on that part of the story. Chapters will be around 2.5 thousand words and come out around every weekday.

Theodran [A Slice of Life, Progression Fantasy]
Release schedule: Thursday and Sunday at 12:00am CST. The world of Uneira is a desolate wasteland full of horrors and danger behind every rock, every bush, and every scraggly tree.

Only the most exceptional people brave the Unholy Wastes. But, inside of the Aetheline Chalice in its capital of Aethel, rank and status is determined by talent, skill, and archetype, but those that are extraordinary compete for prestige in the Pageship Games, where they’ll climb up the ranks to stardom or earn the right to carve a name for themselves in the Unholy Wastes after winning. *Magic is split up between Talents, Skills and Archetypes. It's my approach with a System like story without the system or other front-end applications of one. It's going to start as a bit of a slowburn coming of age, but that's really only for the first book. **There are three POV characters: Theodran, Modran, and Alanna.
