Chapter 18

Like a horde of rats, thousands of ground-type Machina littered the Plain of Jars and in the skies flying-type Machina roa in the distance with aa European-styled suit of arical Machine ―― As the 1st and 2nd Armor Battalions assehters taking off froantic Machina!! Fire!!」

Under Captain Wittmann’s motivated coe froh Explosive Anti-Tank round exits the44 caliber 120 line, all the other M1A2 tanks of the 1st Ar their shells towards the Gigantic Machina

Shock-waves and flashes of light ensue as dozens of High Explosive Anti-Tank rounds are released, like a hound dog hoantic Machina ―― but before they even reached their intended target, they explode collectively, as the Gigantic Mechanical Suit erected a e

Hidden behind heavy santic Machina appears once ative contact, the target is still active!! No effect!!」

「shi+t, is it hopeless!?」

Receiving the report froantic Machina, wrinkling his brow as their repetitious barrage caused no da Machina in the skies, F-22 Raptors and F-2 Support Fighters repeatedly clash as ground forces continue to boin to turn around, Captain Witt into the receiver

「Huh!? HQ this is Ha to base!! What the hell is going on, over!?!」

『Hammerhead 1 this HQ, all aircraft are black on a the airspace, over』

「Well then send soative Hammerhead 1, reinforceo, Foxtrot, HQ!? How is that even possible, there are close to 100 aircraft back at base, including our reserve units!!」

『Ha reserve units have been mobilized and are still in operationBreak

A majority of the Air Force is currently deployed to support operations to Rescue the President, the returning aircraft on Camp Dallas are unable to fly at this ti to sortie, until then you’re going to have to dig in, over』

「 fuck!! This is just, GREAT!!

Roger that HQ!! But send us what ever you got, ASAP, Hammerhead 1, Out!!」

What does command think we can do without aerial support!? This situation is fucked up……

Captain Witt they won’t receive air support for so him feel defenseless as if he was stripped naked before the enemy

It was at this ti their surroundings screa

「Caaptaaainn!! Ene fro Machina, Parabelluht, but after having run out of a an opportunity for I vehicles on the Jar plains below

「All units, load high explosiveMachina off our 3 o’clock!!」

Crossing paths byMachina descend towards the surface to strike the 1st Armor BattalionThe sound of fifty M1A2 Tanks main cannons rotate in unison

But there still was a technical proble roughly between 100 to 200 kilo Machina cae Captain Witt like a gale 50 high explosive h the air towards the onco, creating an explosive net of anti-aircraft fire

And fro Machina descend in a fiery ball of fla on to the surface below

「Let, let’s get out of here!!」

「「「「Ye-, yes Co to the unexpected surprise attack by their “prey” that crawled on land, the astonished I Machina orders his ical device located within their cockpits

But theMachina tried to withdraw, following the 1st Armor Battalions salvo, 8 more machines were shot down by a second volley, this time from the 2nd Armor Battalion

「 You fuckers!! Those were onna kill you all!!」

Having watched thebox take out his coe his fallen friends

Diving down fro on top one of the tanks, preventing the other tanks fro at it directly

「Ah shi+t!! This is fucking bad!!」

And just by chance, the target of the Ieant Barkun turret, freezing at the sight of the flying Machina on top of them

「I knew it!! This is their weakness――」

Gloating to hi his suspicions, approaching from above he would be able to reach his eneic cannon, centered on the Abrams armored turret, the Imperial Pilot was just about to fire, when his cockpit abruptly exploded

「Augh, that hurts! What the hell was that!?」

Struck by reeant Barkh, all it did was strike his hel outside the Abrauys okay!?』

Restlessly looking outside the tank, Sergeant Barkh the radio, it was one of the soldiers whose coa City

Joining the 1st and 2nd Armor Battalions, a co the rehtersThe Mitsubishi+ type 87, AN/TWQ-1 Avenger and an M998 Hueant Barkmann replied back with a question

「Does it seem like we’re okay?」

『Not really, but don’t worry about itLook up in the sky』

「Huh!? What’s in the sk―!?」

Looking up towards the sky, Sergeant Barkmann raised his voice in astonishment

Cah alert fro Imperial forces

『All hands to battle stations, we are at DEFCON 1!! I repeat all hands to battle stations, this is not a drill!!』

As ehout the base, Soldiers hest level of defense readiness, regarding an i attack on civilian and military population centers

「The 3rd Infantry platoon willall your weapons and equip anti-tank defenses here, here and here」

「All aerial squadrons, finish your resupply!! Get ready for take off!! Move it, on the double!! 」

「HEY!! I’un ammo, quickly!!」

The Soldiers stationed on base asse Imperial forces, while on Camp Dallas’ airfield, aircraft which participated in Kazuya’s Rescue Operation return one after the other, refitting, refueling and resupplying before taking off onceany effect on the Giant Machina!!」

「Our aerial units flying above the Jar Plains are out of a from the battlespace!!」

「The 1st and 2nd Armor Battalions have lost their air superiority, they’re sitting ducks out there!! 」

「Incoinning to cross Alligator Creek, they’re currently in theand resupply of Camp Dallas’ Air Force!! Get it done in 15 minutes!! Hurry!!」

Within Caence reports coence analysts to be scrutinizedOn the big screen monitor, video of the battles on the Jar Plains streah from camera’s mounted on tracked vehicles

「……Oh Master…… It was only just this tiot injured…

This Eht…that’s right…I’ll burn all those bastards in a nuclear inferno…

…But for starters we’ll have to destroy that unsightly puppet」

Since Kazuya suffered various injuries due to Adele, Nelson and the Iive the Eeance

「Don’t, don’t do it, Madahts under her breath

「……Kill ……Exterminate ……They all must die…… the women and children don’t matter…… annihilate them all」

General Murray voiced words of caution, as Chitose es

「……Did you say so? General Murray?」

―― Slowly turns head, Pitch Black Glare

「Hiieee!! Ah No, uh that, that’s! We can’t use nuclear weapons inside our allies kingdom…

… Its also, just that…… Please watch this, look over here!!

If we use nuclear weapons right now, our 1st and 2nd Ar units will suffer serious dae!!」

When Chitose turned towards General Murray, there was only darkness in her eyes, causing hi his frains toup the Monster Kingdoantic Machina as a large red dot along with the I up friendly forces as blue lightsTrying to dissuade Chitose froe it would cause to their own forces

「……Then I’ll give the order to withdraw」

Casting aside General Murray’s analysis and concerns with a feords, Chitose stubbornly continuesher goal to use nuclear weapons

「But, but……」

General Murray was unable say a word, after catching sight of the sharp glint within Chitose’s eyesAware that he was unable to prevent Chitose fro Parabellum’s nuclear arsenal, General Murray felt it was unavoidable

Behind the two, the entrance to the rooh

Realizing that the room’s officers had looked back, Chitose and General Murray turned their heads, their eyes ith surprise

「M,master!? What, why are you here!? Your injuries, are you okay!?」

「K, Kazuya!?」

「「「「MrPresident!?」」」」

Entering the Couards was Kazuya, beside hie staff stood Celicia and arriving all the way fro fineBring me up to speed, what’s our current situation?」

Up until now, Kazuya who had just been in surgery quickly asks Chitose for Parabellum’s status report

「No, this is not fine!! Master!! You body isn’t――」

「It’s been healed, thanks to Celicia and our ic」

Towards Chitose’s worries, Kazuya interrupted her by stating just the facts

「… …Celicia? ――What!? Why is that wo to Kazuya’s reply, Chitose finally becolare towards her direction

「I was the one who brought her hereJust in case there was another eency」

「What was that? Ibuki are you serious… … That woman, no matter how much loyalty she shows on the surface, she’s still a prisoner of war!! That woman is――」

「Yes, I knowBut if you take into account Celicia’s healing ability, there’s no reason not to use itShe has already healed Master’s body」

「Ugh… … I still wouldn’t trust her!! There is no guarantee that she wouldn’t har I can’t ignoreThat’s quite insulting, for you to assume that I would cause Kazuya any hariance to any of you, because I a in the conversation, Celicia interrupts Chitose and IbukiRidiculing Chitose, Celicia ht after she finishes her sentence

「What did you say… you bitch?」

「Huh, did I say so?」

Chitose veins twitched with fury at Celicia’s provocation, after receiving the status report from General Murray, Kazuya turns to settle confrontation between the two girls

「Thank you General Murray――

Alright you two, that’s enoughNow is not the ti the irritation irls i their gazes

「I, sigh I’m really sorry about this, Master」

「This was o kill that huge piece of junk」

Exclai it for all to hear, Kazuya put emphasis in his words

「Yes, understood……but Master, the ical barrier it operates is quite powerful, we can’t afford anymore half-hearted attacks」

「That seems to be the case」

Kazuya nodded his head as he watched the 1st & 2nd Are over head screenWatching as it dom Capital

「Then… … We should immediately use our nuclear arsenal」

「No, I won’t use nuclear weapons for this」

「… …why?」

Chitose tilts her head from Kazuya’s response

「It’s about ti for Chitose’s mumbled question, as a report suddenly echoes within the Co froot a response!!

Friendlies, friendly aircraft en-route!! There’s… over 200 of them!! 」

Parabellules,F-15E Strike Eagles,F-16 Fighting Falcons,F-22 Raptors,Sukhoi Su-33,Sukhoi Su-35,Dassault Rafale,Eurofighter Typhoon,Saab JAS 39 Gripen (Griffon) and F-2 Support Fighter

Parabellum’s Navy and Marine Corps aerial assets were made up of the F-14 To with aircraft frohtning II, Sukhoi Su-47 and PAK FA’s T-50 prototype (Sukhoi Su-57) also deployedThese were the su research

「This feels overwhelOur Country’s aerial fleet」

Parabellu, a criround ―― was displayed on the wings of over 200 warplanes

Battling elegantly in the sky, the pilots fired their ainst the E them down as Captain Witte is now secured, there’s no worries about that…… but will it be enough to take ‘hi any effect…… do we need to wait for the heavy bombers? ―― Huh!? Seriously!! This is just absurd」

The warplanes deployed froantic Machina withoff AGM-65 Mavericks and the Russian KH-29 Kedge

The Fighting Falcon, Flankers D & E, Dassault Rafale, Typhoon Eurofighter,Saab’s Griffon, the Hornet and the Harrier II fired hundreds of ical barrier, leaving Captain Witt about how to defeat such an enemy

It was at this time dozens oftheir way, corounds surface

「Reinforcements!?」

As the C-5 Galaxy flew in foran to openAt approximately 5 kilometers to the rear of Captain Wittan to airdrop fro to turn this into a Land Operation now?」

Captain Witt airdropped fro the deployment of the Low Altitude Parachute Extraction Systelances at the dropped units fro a out a draith ease, the parachutes deploy quickly, dragging the tanks out of the cargo hold sht, this allows aircraft to fly at low altitudes to rapidly deploy units to the front, tactically and efficiently

To prevent da transport, specialized pallets are used to protect the cargo fro into the battlefield, arriving with Parabellueneration and later seriesThe Challenger 2, Merkava Mark IV, Leopard 2A6, AMX Leclerc and Russia’s T-90A

『Captain Witt a hard time, would you care for so, the specialized pallets sensors autoo in place, finalizing the drop process

With the coine roars proudly as Captain Witth the Leopard 2A6’s radio

「This voice… …it can’t be, Major Knispel?」

Captain Wittman was shocked, as Major Kurt Knispel’s voice was trans the 2nd World War, serving as a Tank Coest record of destroyed enemy tanks, credited with the total destruction of 168 tanks

『Ah, you are correct』

「Major Knispel, your reinforcein the counteroffensive――」

「shi+t!! All units spread out!! 」

With the arriving reinforcereat Major Knispel, Captain Wittaze back to the frontlines

The antic Machina had already positioned itself, carrying a large ht hand while it held its shi+eld in its leftBy the time Captain Wittmann saw this, he reflexively stiffened as his consciousness rapped in a bright light

As more reinforcements arrived on the battlefield, Parabellu to counterattack, it was at this antic Machina’s weapon firedWithin the Tactical Operations Command Center, everyone fell coantic Machina’s attack was ined

「「「「……」」」」

Arriving to the Plain of Jars the MQ-9 Reaper surveilled the battlefield, sending back video teleic cannon fired, wrapping the 1st Ar half of Parabellum’s forcesSih in the skies above the Plain of Jars, reflecting a scene of carnage, those atching the video feed sed deeply

「The…1st Are, theirs a massive number casualties」

Everyone beca the treic cannon

「… …Disregard what I said earlier, we’ll be using nuclear weapons」

After re-exaantic Machina, Kazuya rim expression

「Please wait, MrPresident!! As I’ve already explained to MsVice-President, if we use nuclear weapons noe’ll suffer severe losses!!」

「I already know about the consequences!」

「Then please reconsider!! At least allows us time to withdraw our forces!!」

「Withdraw the troops…? Murray what are you talking about?」

「Huh… …?」

General Murray and Kazuya were out of sync during their conversation, as one person tilted their head in confusion

「……MasterGeneral Murray wasn’t around during the conference we had earlier about the use of our nuclear weapons」

「Oh, so that’s the reason」

Embarrassed as he was unable to keep up and follow the conversation, looking back and forth between Kazuya and Chitose, General Murray chose to keep silent

「General Murray, we’ll be using nuclear weapons, but not directly」

「… … How is, there’s no way that can be possible――!?」

「I’ll explain later」

Realizing so General Murray immediately covered his mouth with his hand, his expression stiffened with shock

「―― This is President NagatoEntering launch code 0995215――」

「Ah! Er, Master… …」

Inside the tactical operations command room Kazuya is on the phone with Parabellum’s Nuclear Division, Unit 666 “The Dust Busters”―― Chitose anxiously opens herKazuya’s call to the Nuclear division, she becaiven them the launch codes

「――Yes, what is it Chitose?」

While still on the phone, Kazuya turns to question Chitose

「Well that… … the… that launch code… it can’t be used anymore」

「… … And why is that?」

「… … Because I used it」

「O~kay, sooo… … When you used that launch code… … as target of that nuclearas he questions Chitose in a cold voice

「It was all over the Empire… … Especially the densely populated areas…」

「Chitose… … We’ll have a talk later」

「……Yes, I… … I understand」

Chitose nodded her head and replied dejectedly, her form looked so frail you wouldn’t even think she defeated Adele and the Io

「Giggling A, I’ silently」

Raising her voice so Kazuya would hear, Celicia blurts her thoughts, while Chitose curses under her breath, clenching her fist, barelyto hold herself back

「So is the launch code really just all 0’s?」

「… …Y-yes, after I used the previous launch code, it was reset back to 00000000」

「Okay, just a antic Machina――」
