Varian's face scrunched as he saw an Abyssal in golden armor.
The moment he saw the two patrol guards noticed them, the Abyssal's eyes turned red.
His arms morphed into crystalline red wings and his legs became metallic talons. Finally, his face twisted and a blood red beak grew replaced his nose.
"Hmph!" With a snort, he flapped his wings.
They were at least five hundred meters away from him, but with a single flap, the distance was halved!
"Varian, report and stand by." As she ordered, Sarah's body was covered by a blue hue and the next moment, her figure blurred as she appeared in front of the Abyssal.
The Abyssal raised his wings. His metallic feathers shone red for a moment before protruding outward like pointed spears.
He wasted no time and slashed at Sarah with all his strength.
"Die!" With his roar, he released his Level 6 Aura.
"Scum." Sarah spat and raised her fist. The blue hue on her body concentrated towards her fist, forming a radiant sight.
Stacking the strength of both Body and Water Awakeners, she punched down.
Boom!
Varian got away from the battle sight and opened his comm. He needed to report the situation here.
"Commander Xam, we found the—huh?" Varian stopped midway and looked up.
In the distant horizon, rings of fire spread. Soon, in multiple spots across the sky, Varian saw bright red light for a moment before a huge ring of fire bloomed into existence.
In just a few moments, flowers of fire bloomed everywhere across the sky.
'Master, the battle ships are taken out!'
Varian didn't need to be told. The scene played itself in front of his eyes.
A metallic object on fire crashed down at great speed.
"Dammit!" Varian cursed and ran away to escape from the impact.
Boom!
It was like a small earthquake. The ground under him trembled and Varian raised his arms to shield himself from the cloud of dust.
Even though he was quite some distance away, the impact was too great.
Just a single crash caused such damage. What would happen if this happened across the planetoid?
"What the fuc-" Varian was about to curse when his comm buzzed.
"ATTENTION! Abyssals have started a full scale conflict. Soldiers on the border, hold them down with your full strength. Do not let them breach the line of defense."
Varian's body went cold as he saw the ground shake.
With an ominous premonition, he connected his comm to the border surveillance.
He got the border view for the first time.
It wasn't a pleasant experience.
There was a buffer zone between Human and Abyss territories. On either sides, both sides beefed up the infrastructure.
Heavy weaponry including but not limited to laser guns, stun bombs, plasma weapons were all aimed at the Abyssals.
The Abyssals had a mix of human weapons plus their own infrastructure—spiralling towers, vibrating castles, and crystal cannons aimed at the human side.
These weapons, despite their lethality couldn't capture the highly agile mid awakeners.
But they served as a deterrent and had their own role to play.
The borders were guarded strictly.? Despite that, there were infractions every day. They could only be taken care of by the patrol guards.
Varian and other cadets were such patrol guards.
When planning the mission, they considered the worst case scenario.
It would be a small scale conflict with Abyssals. Even then, the fighting would be limited to the border.
As patrol guards, they would be safe. Even if someone learnt their identity and wanted to target them, the border would serve as the shield.
But now, the border was a hell.
Boom!
Bang!
Kacha!
The buffer zone was hollowed out and what replaced it was a massive crater hundreds of meters deep and miles long.
In the sky, battle ships from both sides engaged in a deadly conflict. Every second, dozens of battle ships from both sides would be blasted to pieces and crash to the ground.
On land, as powerful awakeners entered the scene, the situation quickly escalated.
Space Awakeners from both sides were the first to engage in conflict. They infiltrated each other's defense infrastructure with a clear intent to neutralize them.
The awakeners guarding the crucial weapons already knew what was coming and stood guard.
The Space Awakeners and the protectors of weapons started a fierce battle.
Despite their struggles, the fire power on both sides quickly dwindled as weapons of massive destruction were pulverized one by one.
Apart from a few areas where the fire power was still strong, the battle field turned into a perfect ground for Awakeners.
The first round started.
Tens of thousands of Body Awakeners, Beast Morphers rushed at their enemy.
Fists connected with fists. Kicks faced kicks. Bones were broken, muscles were torn.
The air was blasted and the ground caved in.
As the awakeners engaged in the most primitive way of solving dispute, the next wave of awakeners started.
Fire balls, Water arrows, Lightning spears flew in the sky.
As the injuried were dragged to rescue, earthen walls were erected to shield them.
Another phenomena also increased.
During the fight, some awakeners would pause for a split second. It was harmless at normal times, but in a war, even the slightest distraction was fatal.
These awakeners proved it by losing their lives.
Of course, as veterans, no one would pause in the middle of a battle. But they were made to pause.
It was the Mind Awakeners.
Close enough, but hidden, the Mind Awakeners used their prowess to impact the battle field.
The only good thing was that since they used mental sense to interfere with others' action, their interference could also be cancelled by other mind awakeners.
At the same, they could roughly detect each other's positions.
As the Mind awakeners reported the location of the other side's Mind awakeners, the second salvo of Space Awakeners began.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
This time, Elemental Awakeners also joined and bombarded the hideouts of telepaths.
As the fire power on the hide outs increases, a few figures shot into the air from the mind awakener locations and rushed towards the battle field.
One such figure waved his hand. The next moment, the enemy Abyssal was flung back and before he could retaliate, the individual clenched his fist.
Boom!
Boom!
It was as if paper was crumpled, the Abyssal's body twisted unnaturally and he died in no time.
It was a common misconception that all Mind Awakeners fought from a distance. It only applied to those that took the telepath branch.
There was another different branch.
Telekinetics.
Wrapping themselves with mental power, they flew at great speeds, helping comrades and fighting enemies.
Bodies continued to pile as the ground was dyed in red and green blood.
Both sides were doing their best.? Even though it looked chaotic, each awakener was connected to at least seven more comrades forming a team.
Each team member complemented others perfectly and turned into a killing machine.
Unfortunately, this was true for both sides. Thus, the battle was destined to continue for a long time.
If this was a moon, Humans would have had the advantage due to Heaven's Will. After all, it reduced the strength of Abyssals around 10%. Of course, as the Abyssals grow stronger, the suppression decreases. But even a Level 9 Abyssal cannot ignore Heaven's Will.
Unfortunately, Heaven's Will only applied on planets and their moons.
Planetoids were artificial and hence Abyssals were not suppressed.
On the battlefield, the majority of the fighters were Level 3. Some was level 4.
There were a few Level 5 Awakeners, each facing their counterpart.
As the strongest combat powers on the battle field, they would be decide the outcome of the war.
