575. Crow In A Cage
In an unknown underground location, the leader of the Resistance, Calvin Merson, was hanging by his lean arms while his body glistened with sweat as the dim flame of the tiny gas lamp flickered in the darkness.He was covered in fresh bruises from head to toe, while his upper back was resplendent with scars.An empty steel tankard lay upturned on the ground before him, alongside a half-eaten plate of sticky white rice mixed with a dirty gray gruel that reeked worse than a sewer.“I…need a drink!”Calvin’s hoarse voice echoed in the empty room as he leaned forward, struggling with the iron chains that strained his arms with every movement.“Water! Somebody…just give me a drop of…water!”Calvin’s desperate cries eventually fell on the ears of the warden posted outside“Stop your yelping, you dog!” he snapped. “You had plenty to drink last night. No more water for you!”“It’s…been hours since then. I need water!”Calvin’s chains rattled as he raised a ruckus.“Just give me one drink! My
574. The Grand Chessboard
Inside a soundproof conference room, at a secure private mansion in Glenmonte, Xander was surveying the virtual world map, which covered the entirety of his 72-inch LED screen.Standing behind him were Captain Williams, General Ebenezer, and Master Lukas Windrose of the Blood Moon Academy.“Gentlemen. We are finally standing on the edge of tomorrow. Three years ago, Valheim won the first war through deceit and treachery. But now, we have the chance to reclaim our complete sovereignty and crush them so badly that they’ll never dare to gaze in this direction again.”Still facing the screen, Xander narrowed his eyes on Valheim.“We’ve already wrecked their navy. Their warships and combat boats are sleeping at the bottom of the sea. And their aircraft carriers are undergoing extensive repairs. We only have to deal with their air force and ground defenses.”“I will handle their ground defenses,” General Ebenezer volunteered.“And my boys can handle their troops,” Lukas Windrose joined in.“
573. The Council’s Verdict
President Igor was preparing to strike back with everything in their arsenal to teach Alexandria a painful lesson. But as dawn broke over Valheim, he was hit by several phone calls and messages directly from the International Peacekeeping Council.The Peacekeeping Council had taken notice of the conflict between the two nations and was prepared to intervene directly to prevent further escalation.Both President Elaine Braithwaite and President Igor Vasily were summoned for a high-level meeting with the council on the island of Barakas.President Elaine Braithwaite arrived right on time to defend Alexandria’s actions, but the President of Valheim chose to stay behind.Instead, the one who arrived to represent Valheim was Yosef Kuroshev, the Minister of Defense.After all the top dignitaries from the member nations filled the secure conference center, the Chairman of the Peacekeeping Council began the session.“I hope everyone knows why I called you to this meeting. We are here to discus
572. Zeus
General Ebenezer returned to Alexandria, escorted by Captain Williams and his team.Xander led the way, flying them down to his new military base on Santini Island.It had been 3 long years since General Ebenezer had set foot on Alexandrian soil, and being rescued by the man he admired like a hero felt like the perfect homecoming.“Commander Payne….”Words failed the General as he beheld the one whom he had believed to be dead all these years.“It really…is you. They told me you’d been killed in a missile strike, but I was never convinced. Every single day and every single night, I’ve prayed for your return.”Xander held the old General reassuringly and replied, “I was never gone. Only biding my time. I am sorry I couldn’t reach you sooner. Please forgive me, old friend.”General Ebenezer lowered his head.“Please do not dishonor me by asking for forgiveness. I am the one who should be apologizing for failing you all those years ago. I…couldn’t stop those bastards from Valheim. They p
571. The Mad Emperor
By the time Major Morris arrived on location, Xander and his paratroopers had already exfiltrated and returned to Alexandria.The military encampment at the beach had been razed to the ground, and the Shock Troopers lay dead, dismembered and full of bullet holes.Major Morris didn’t even dare to step out of his tank.It was as if the Shock Trooper camp had been raided by a bloodthirsty demon.Looking out of the machine gunner’s turret, the Major contacted General Varoose on the radio.“Report! Did you get the prisoner?”“Negative, General. They are all gone,” Major Morris replied in a faltering tone.“What do you mean, gone? What about the paratroopers?”“They are gone too. They destroyed the beach encampment and killed all our Shock Troopers.”General Varoose couldn’t believe his ears.“Just how the hell did that happen?” he barked, overcome with rage. “You told me the Shock Troopers had them all lined up and disarmed! How did they manage to kill our soldiers then?”Major Morris move
570. Divine Intervention
Twenty assault rifles and three mounted machine gun turrets were trained directly at the three trucks, making it impossible for Captain Williams and his men to squirm their way out of this way.Even if the paratroopers somehow managed to fight their way out, the rocketeers waiting in the distance were sure to blow them up with their shoulder-mounted smart RPGs.“I am not going to ask again. Get down or prepare to be eliminated!”The lieutenant began the countdown and turned the safety off, aiming for the first driver’s head with his tactical SMG.“Five…four…three…”“We’ll come out! Don’t shoot!” Captain Williams yelled back.The lieutenant immediately turned his attention toward the box truck.“Huh? So, you are carrying human cargo, is it?” He snapped. “Open the damn container and come out slowly. Try anything smart, and the machine guns will shred you to pieces before you can utter an apology.”Captain Williams unlocked the door and stepped forward, but advised General Ebenezer to st
