Chapter 1200 One of them (2/2)
——
The large Bertha ship stayed in orbit away from the four planets. If one was to look through the glass in the command centre they could see two of the planets in the distance in view. If they zoomed in, they could also see two of the Dalki mother ships.
They would often stay in orbit after dropping the black pods. Seeing this was also the confirmation that the Dalki forces far surpassed humanity's expectations. When they had come to attack Earth, there had only been one of them.
Sach had just landed on Planet Killor. He had made sure to arrive on a part of the planet, where no battles were taking place. Since the fortresses were well guarded and stronger, ability users were prepared to fight off the Dalki. Seemingly realising that, the Dalki would come in groups to test certain things, and after a short battle retreat.
Once he arrived at the Shelter, the first thing Sach noticed was the state of the east wall. It was worse than he had thought. There was a large hole that had been slightly fixed with the Earth ability. In its current state it wouldn't even hold against the weakest of Dalki attacks.
Bunkers had been built a few hundred feet away from the Shelters as well. He could see scout groups heading out and returning, but the worst thing was that snow around the area was covered in blood. Red blood.
His first destination was wherever Samantha was. A soldier quickly pointed out the way and on his way Sach was wondering one thing. Was the fact that this planet was performing worse than the others related to the Dalki focusing more effort into it… or was this a result of her not really being in the right state of mind?
Reaching the north wall, he could see Head General Samatnha there, in a makeshift tent, looking at a digital map at the place.
”Supreme Commander Sach, I'm sorry that I couldn't greet you when you were coming in, but we are in a dire situation.” Samantha reported as she briefly looked up, to which he just replied with an 'At ease'.
Coming up to the map, Sach looked at everything it displayed, which was the locations they had seen the Dalki. She wasn't the only one in the room. There were also four strategists of war, they weren't great in strength, but had helped Oscar many times.
”Perhaps you could shed some light on our situation. Whenever our scouts have discovered a few Dalki scanning out the area, we have followed them, only to end up led into a trap time after time. No matter how cautious we are, or how we change up our tactics, they managed to trick my man!”
”At the same time, even when badgering up, and moving our defences to one side of the wall. It's as if they know which wall we borrowed our powers from. They seem to have great insight into our moves.”
Now, Sach understood how the wall had been damaged, if the Dalki were coming from the west section, then Samantha needed to make the choice to reinforce the wall with troops from the north, south or east walls for support. She had done so from the east wall, the wall furthest away, and yet somehow the Dalki had been ready with a strong force attacking from there.
”Am I the issue?….” Samantha couldn't help but ask it out loud. It wasn't as if she was unaware, that what happened to her father had messed her up. Usually she would be quite good at tactical warfare, being even more alert than Sach.
”No, the issue isn't you at all.” Sach said, pivoted his foot and swung his other leg out, slamming it at one of the strategist's head, hooking him by the back of the neck. With sheer power, he brought the man's head down and pinned it onto the ground.
That when they could see it, while the strategist was stuck under Sach's foot strugglin his eyes were glowing red.
”He was a…V?” Samantha realised. ”But how did you know?”
