[ 16:01 ] [ The Diamat Square, Fortner City ] This was the occupied area of the Special Division, clearing out the Dark Intrinium foot soldiers with relative ease. This is where most of the battle occured, with White Eye soldiers fending of Nextellar soldiers while the Dark Intrinium soldiers were left to be picked apart by the Soul-Core soldiers. The no-killing rule doesn't apply to normal soldiers since they don't have the capabilities to capture them. They were simply a nuisance to them. One bullet to the head ends any scuffle instantly. However, there were some powerful ones among them, arguably just as strong as the Uprising of Kytron. If the Cloud Rulers or even the Star Gazers aren't able to fend off them. Maybe the Special Division can. “You done hacking, Kenel? Bring the gates down already!” A loud-mouthed petite girl yelled at Kenel. “Distractions won't help me, Mica.” Mica watched Kenel’s fingers move at a rapid pace on the tablet he brought with him. He didn’t even look at it, like he instinctively knew what to press. “There are atleast tens of thousands of them waiting to slip past the gate and rain Hell upon us! Unless you wanna get cooked!” They were initially told to fall back by the general infantry, but the Special Division stood their ground. “If they carry Anti Soul-Wielder weaponry or even rockets, then we’re in for a ride...” said Mica, as she facepalmed, staring at the ground. Anti Soul-Wielder weaponry are loaded with bullets that can, when hit, induce a Soul-Stun or a Soul-Lock lasting up to a minute. With it comes the consequences of not being able to use your Soul-Wielding arsenal for the time being, reducing Soul-Wielders to ordinary people. Dark Intrinium uses those bullets to gain the upper hand in large-scale ground offensive. The bullets are often purple, with a glowing effect. Just another product to kill people with. “What's the hold up, Kenel?” Mica asked, standing up from her cover, throwing her knives at two incoming soldiers. Kenel was quiet as he closed his eyes. His Soul guided him through the digital world, something only he could see... or what he projected it looked like in his head, a blue digital sea. “Almost there...” Prior to the battle, Fortner City threw themselves in a city-wide lockdown which encrypted all sensitive information, gate checks included. “They thought of all security measures before Dark Intrinium started their attacks.” He said. “I noticed that all doors leading to the shelters are encrypted with a unique key only those in charge can input. Only after checking for a pulse and a face scan will the door open. You're not getting in if you're not supposed to.” “Great. Then what am I supposed to do? Keep babysitting your ass?” Mica gritted her teeth, throwing another knife. “Get those hands working!” As she peeked out to throw another knife, she saw a sniper pointing a barrel her way. “Oh fuc-” But then... a massive wolf the size of a moose bit the entire top half of the sniper, peeling his intestines out like string cheese. The wolf turned its head, howling at the Special Division squad. That is Spiker, their Hybrid-Type Soul-Wielder. While he was a hybrid of a wolf and a human, his unique ability allowed him to take on a massive form of a wolf, giving him increased durability, agility and strength. Mica was in awe, watching the beauty of a wolf protecting it's pack in it's utmost peculiarity. However, the noise of a gunshot made it more short-lasted than it was supposed to. “Ah!” Mica ducked into cover, grabbing 2 knives from her pouch. She was breathing heavily and her ear was ringing. “That was close...” “Mica?” Kenel turned his head toward Mica. “Keep on hacking, you dweeb!” she yelled. The petite girl looked at her 2 knives. One had a small, intricate design on the blade, she watched it, admiring the look of it. Her blacksmith forged them perfectly for her. Both Mica and Kenel heard a rumble from behind the gate, a heavy one. As they looked, they saw a convoy of
