The cult priests and prophets launched orbital bombardment on the sacred ground prescribed by the cults.
Its not an impossible feat, but its not something that typically happens. No, to put it bluntly, its a very rare occurrence. This rarity stems from the fact that the sacred ground is a planet designated by the prophets after interpreting verses mentioned in the cults revered doctrine over an extended period.
The doctrine encompasses the past, present, and future of the cult, serving as a scripture and norm. Therefore, one cannot casually interfere with the sacred grounds mentioned in the doctrine, even if it poses a threat to the empire.
Originally, its like that.
No matter how devout a believer is, there are moments when compromises between faith and reality are inevitable. Cults are no exception.
There are exceptional cases where special measures are taken regarding the sacred grounds, one of which involves the entire planet corroding due to contamination.
Jason capitalized on this point, pressuring the Cult Council and Elders to enforce a purification mission. Cynthia, a member of the Prophecy Assembly, also supported this by claiming errors in the existing interpretation of the doctrine.
With the three major institutions of the Cult Empire the Council, Elders, and Prophecy Assembly in motion, a purification order contrary to the doctrine could be carried out. If the purification mission had succeeded, the current issues wouldnt have arisen. Removing the most dangerous contaminant in the Cult Empire would have deprived Jasons opposition of a basis for criticism.
However, the purification mission failed, and both the Empires battleship and fleet were annihilated. Due to the immense losses suffered by the Empire, Jason and Cynthias position became difficult, pushing them to pursue the purification mission at the risk of violating the doctrine.
Even if the pressure on Jason diminishes as things resolve, regaining the same level of power as before is almost impossible. Long-lived cults, due to their inherent conservatism, remember past mistakes, especially those of leaders like Jason.
Moreover, theres a really big problem.
Cynthia mentioned that Jason went into hiding to avoid the Councils attendance order, but Clo easily guessed what he might be up to.
Hiding is nonsense. He must be preparing to escape.
Anyone experienced in space survival knows that sending an empire fleet to the sacred ground is an action more fitting for players than cults.
The notorious 5th ranked, Amorph, is likely to know who attacked him or will find out soon. In other words, the next target hes aiming for is Jason.
If its him, hell chase us to the end of the universe.
Clo, having experienced it herself, understands well. Not realizing that he was Rank 5, she had once interfered with his evolution, nearly quitting the game because of his retaliation.
Jason has had a similar experience. He was on the verge of posting an apology on the community board and likely suffered even more than her.
Should I run away too?
While Clo is lost in thought, one of the previously silent monuments emanates light. Its the monument of Juvaka.
What happened to the records if the battleship was destroyed?
What do you mean by records?
Just because its called total annihilation doesnt necessarily mean that everything perished.
Whats that supposed to mean?
The military concept of total annihilation is used when the combat capabilities are so compromised that the mission cannot be continued. Even if the entire fleet is lost, its too early to say that there are absolutely no survivors.
Among those present, Juvaka is the only one directly involved in military affairs. He is the Grand Master of Star Union and the overall commander of the Mech Fleet. Therefore, he accurately understood what Cynthias words meant. Cynthia replied to Juvakas statement.
Among the ships that returned from the fleet, only one out of fifty is operable. Even that one is severely damaged, with 80% of the crew dying, and it returned through automatic navigation. The captain of the Imperial battleship Judicator of Damocles 08. perished, and only 20 survivors boarded the escape pod.
What caused the severe damage?
According to the investigation, cosmic bolts dark matter reversed and exploded due to an unidentified energy projectile.
What about the surviving crew?
To Clos question, Cynthia suddenly fell silent. Cynthia, who had answered fluently until now, hesitated for the first time.
What did they say?
They said that it was a demon with three heads that spouted lightning from its mouth.
What seriously?
damn!Follow current novels on novelb((in).(com)
A demon with three heads. Clo knows well what that nickname means.
Has he already evolved into the ascendant stage?
If its the ascendant stage, its understandable that the entire fleet was annihilated.
As a perennial species, Amorph becomes significantly more powerful as it goes backward. The adult form of Amorph can contend with elite armies and fleets. Moreover, considering that he annihilated the Imperial battleship and fleet, he might have secured numerous unique traits.
If its the Amorph has reached ascendant, were in danger too. You know that, right?
I know her actions were due to the contract I made with her. However, that doesnt negate the fact that the Mother of the Sky took care of me.
Later, when the opportunity arises, I plan to give her an appropriate reward.
Come to think of it, I havent apologized yet.
I tried to devour her, thinking she was responsible for Adhais death. It was a misunderstanding. Adhai, feeling left behind by Number 26 and the Mother of the Sky, made an unexpected move. She was not at fault.
I wanted to apologize, but with consecutive events, I havent been able to speak yet.
Theres a ship ahead. You probably know, but it seems there are some survivors.
Wait. I have something to say before that.
Something to say?
I quickly stopped my legs, which were moving fast, and stood in place. She also stopped running when I suddenly stopped. She, with an elegant eagle-like head, tilted her head. Looking into her pumpkin-colored eyes, I spoke.
About what happened with Adhai last time.
Hmm?
I misunderstood. So, I want to apologize.
Huh? Huh?
Having heard my apology, she blinked her eyes. As if she didnt understand what she heard, she asked again.
What did you say just now? Say it again.
Im sorry for not trusting you.
After apologizing again, the Mother of the Sky widened her mouth.
I judged hastily. Ill make sure this doesnt happen again.
Honestly, its hard to believe you now, but say it once more.
Im sorry. Ill be more careful in the future.
Whether she understood that I was sincere or not, she didnt tease me anymore. She looked into my eyes seriously.
Got it. I dont know if Im in a position to accept an apology, but it was true that I couldnt protect Adhai, Ill apologize too.
Hmm.
Then, thats the end of it.
Fine.
As I nodded, she sighed.
Wow. To hear an apology from the famous Amorph, which Ive never heard in the game. Its Unbelievable.
She shook her head, seemingly impressed at herself.
Why did it sound like she was mocking me though.
I considered pointing out that there had never been an incident in the game where I needed to apologize to her, but I refrained.
Well, I was wrong.
While thinking such thoughts, I detected movement from the auxiliary organs. Regularly repeating footsteps, tense heartbeats revealing anxiety, a unique smell of sweat and iron mixed together.
Combining all this, it wasnt difficult to figure out who the enemy was.
[ZZZ ZZ (Enemy)]
Right.
The Mother of the Sky, who realized later than me, turned her gaze through the trees.
Cult survivors. The number is
[ZZZ (Six)]
Their weapons are rudimentary, except for the Purple Spray Gun.
[ZZZZ ZZ ZZZ (Shouldnt be difficult)]
Its a suitable opponent to loosen up my body, which rested for a day.
