Chapter 292 - I’m General Vender!

Ever since the Caliphates' establishment after World War Three, the Caliphs have enjoyed a state of security as none of their original and claimed lands have ever fallen on enemy hands.

Dune Technology cannot be deployed outside of this region. But inside the burning deserts, no other country could best it.

It was rumored and noted in other nations' satellite feeds that the Caliphates even tested nuking their area. But with the sandstorm could contain and limit the explosions of weapons of Mass Destruction. Even New Great Britain's Lightning Rod technology could not bring a strong storm to make landfall as the strong sandstorm could change the weather and create such heat to stop the storm from raging.

And so, no fortress on the edge of the Caliphates or on the coasts that faced Africa ever experienced defeat. The reported attacks of the WGP up north managed to do a lot of damage, but the base was not totally decimated.

Even the headquarters of this base and the power plants functioned.

Magantae knew this, and so, after threatening the Caliphates, they retreated. Had they chosen to attack, it would not destroy this base.

The surrounding bases and even the forces based in the middle regions had already sent reinforcements to guard the area. Even if Africa attacked that location, the base could still hold

Never has there been an incident that a base would be totally crippled that it couldn't active Dune World.

Many Caliphs had watched the battle via satellite feeds.

"What tech is that? And where is General Joab Barak?!" One of the Caliphs demanded.

All the Caliphs of the Caliphate began to discuss and talk about the battle. The wild battle had already alerted them, and they were already viewing the video feeds.

Soon, more information surfaced, and that General Joab Barak had betrayed them. The details about the Planteds were made known. However, they weren't publicized. It was also revealed that one Planted Commander was proven guilty, and the Commanders made quick attacks to execute the Commander promptly.

But all eyes remained affixed to the shattered ruins of the base.

Magantae opened her eyes as her suit managed to resuscitate her. The wounds in her stomach required more healing, and her Commanders had already sprung to action.

"The Enemy? Is he?" Magantae immediately asked.

"Gone. We couldn't her signal, but Salathiel managed to land a critical blow."

"General Vender! Find General Vender!" Magantae recalled.

On the other side of the wrecked base, a group of soldiers was able to escape the wreckage and crawled out in the open.

It was Maver and the surviving Planteds.

"Let's get out of here!" One of the Planteds shouted.

"To where? This place is crawling with soldiers! Besides, Commander Owens has revealed the Planteds! We aren't safe here in the Caliphate!" Another Planted argued.

"We have to go see Pioneer Flantter! He will definitely save us!"

"That's right! He's the only ally we have!" Maver nodded and began to move through the wreckage.

"Grab whatever weapon you can find and try to pilot an Exoskeleton! There are still soldiers around the base!" Maver ordered.

On the other exit of the base, Owens Shedd and his group of soldiers continued to move and searched for the said vessel. The beach was dark, but then, a faint light could be seen surfacing.

"It's a Pegasus!" Owens exclaimed.

"A Pegasus?"

"It's a vessel connected to the Heart of Atlantis, or more specifically, several Pegasuses makes up a Heart!" Owens answered.

"General Vender?! Where are you?" Commander Drinths began his broadcast.

Everyone was alerted at this cry.

Although the base exploded, many of the soldiers who were outside were able to flee as they flew off when the explosions started. Some had been thrown off by the powerful shockwave that exploded and was yet to reach the base.

The soldiers returned and began to open fire at the source of the voice.

The WGP moved and began to fight. Without the Dune World, this battle was to their advantage.

Suddenly, powerful light beams attacked the WGP.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The force fields of the WGP were deployed as the group all combined their energy to create a strong force field.

"WGP! Lost Primordial! I don't care who you are! Surrender now, or you will die!" Pioneer Flantter declared.

The soldiers took notice of Pioneer Flantter. He had allowed his suit to illuminate brightly, which revealed his form. Those with Exoskeletons were able to determine the appearance of their General.

"Caliphate Soldiers!

Stand down! Do not believe the lies of your Commander! You have long known of our bad blood! He has betrayed the Caliphates! I was generous and will not charge you for treason even though you all attacked me! But now, see here! This is your General! General Joab Barak! Anyone who sides with Owens will be branded a traitor! Stop fighting me and attack the WGP!"

The soldiers were now unsure of what had happened. Their base was in ruins, and Flantter didn't fight.

"If you can kill that Owens in the process, I will even reward you! But I doubt they survived that attack! Look now what your Commander has havocked! For the first time, a fortress of the Caliphates has been left in the dust! This fortress has been disabled and is now a hole that our enemies can use to enter our lands!" Flantter argued.

Magantae frowned.

"We have to do something! We cannot allow the remaining soldiers to unite once more! It will be difficult to find General Vender." She cursed.

As this broadcast occurred, Owens Shedd cursed. He was just about to board, but now, it seems that the WGP is not allied with Joab Barak.

The remaining soldiers were urging Commander Owens to go inside the ship.

"Commander Owens. Lieutenant Phallus has already told me about you. We have no time! We need to leave!" A tall masked soldier called out as he surfaced from the water. This soldier was Charles.

"I can't go now!" Owens cursed. He needed to convince the remaining soldiers to believe him.

"Since we have the Heart of Atlantis, the WGP looks like a lesser threat! I have to-"

"Allow me. Lieutenant Phallus is in communication with me. We'll handle it. I have an idea. It seems that General is also after General Vender!" Charles explained.

"Go!"

"Can I trust you?" Owens asked.

"If you trust Lieutenant Phallus, then you can trust me." Charles explained.

"Go inside! This suit is a WGP suit. I should be able to escape after this."

"Save Lieutenant Phallus."

"I wouldn't leave without him." Charles immediately used a strange tech and disappeared. This was made possible with the mirage technology that Lennox acquired and improved.

"Soldiers! Do not believe General Joab Barak! If he is truly innocent, why did he rush here alone? He has left his forces and didn't even bring an elite team! He is hiding his true intent!" Charles suddenly broadcasted.

What was strange was that the sound came from all over. It was not contained on a sing place but as if there was a huge surround-system in the area.

Even Flantter was confused at this and did his best to locate the origin of the sound.

The many soldiers hesitated all the more.

"If you are truly on our side, General Joab Barak! Then tell me, which Caliph sent you! And where are your forces! Surely you have them!" Charles challenged again.

"Owens and Joab Barak! The enemy that we fought that Lost Primordial, has ruined our plans. We, the WGP, will retreat. But give us General Vender!" Magantae suddenly shouted.

The Commanders were surprised at her sudden interference. And she even admitted to being the WGP!

"Admiral…" Drinths muttered.

"It's alright. The cats out of the bag anyway. The techs we displayed cannot be that of other countries. Even so, the Caliphate will agree and feel threatened at the mysterious enemy that we just fought. And now that the sandstorm is clear, I'm sure that the Caliphate armies are watching this." Magantae explained.

"In this situation, we can only retreat and save what we can." Magantae explained.

"The Admiral is right." Salathiel arrived.

"Commander Salathiel!" The other Commanders happily greeted.

"It's dangerous, but that General Vender is amazing! He managed to fight back that enemy. I'm sorry, Admiral. The Nuke Emitter is damaged beyond repair…" Salathiel explained.

"As long as you are safe…" She sighed.

'Where is General Vender?"

"I don't know. He said he has to finish something."

"Can you hear me, General Vender! Where are you?" Magantae asked.

"Commander… We have to be careful. The enemy knows that we are allied with General Vender. They might…"

"I know. I won't fall for that trick again!"

"What a coincidence… WGP. I also am looking for that General Vender! Why do you think I don't have my forces here? I had to send my forces to stop another uprising, thanks to this General Vender! So I sent my team while I rushed here! Who would have thought that the traitor Commander Owens would turn the entire base against me! Is he working for the WGP? The Lost Primordial?" Pioneer Flantter explained in one breathe.

Flantter was trying to keep his emotions. Most of his mission was completed. All that was left was to kill General Vender.

"Even if the base fights me, I just need to ascertain the position of this General Vender and kill him! I can retrieve the Gehanna Piercer and kill them all!" Flantter calculated.

"Hmph! Commander Owens has captured General Vender! And we intend to keep him prisoner! If you want to get him, kill that wicked General!" Charles laughed.

"Prisoner? Don't make me laugh! Your base is in ruins, and that Vender is as slippery as an eel! Give him to me, Owens, and I will retreat!" Flantter suddenly offered.

"And all you soldiers! If you stand in my way in rescuing General Vender, I will kill you!" Flantter warned.

"This General Vender must be a Planted! But he is serving Presider Crostfree. If I play my cards right, he may think I'm here to rescue him!" Flantter thought to himself.

"Why is everyone looking for me? And why am I in the middle of a Mexican standoff?" A strange and confused voice was heard. This was one of Lowengren's secret weapons. To defuse the oddly confusing scenario, Lowengren instructed Lennox.

General Gender Bender appeared wearing a rather colorful bluish Exoskeleton.

"Team Aqua's Gender Vender at your service!" The real Vender Hirock introduced as he hovered and used bright lights to show himself.

Everyone was startled at his appearance.

"But since everyone is after that Vender Hirock, I want in as well! Where are you, General Vender Hirock?" Vender asked.

"What's going on?" A soldier asked another next to him.

"How about we turn tail and just serve the Africans? This place is confusing and crazy!" The other answered.

"I'm General Vender Hirock!" A strange voice muttered.

It was a damaged Caliphate Exoskeleton suit. It hovered slowly and eventually fell on the rubbles. The voice it had was pleading as if it was dying.

Everyone looked at the Exoskeleton and wondered.

"WGP! My friends! Save me!" The Exoskeletons pleaded.

Flantter frowned. This didn't look convincing.

"Is this really necessary?" Piloting this damaged Exoskeleton was Lennox. The suit was an empty shell.

"Yes. it will make that guy brave enough to appear!" Lowengren urged.

"No! I'm General Vender Hircok!" Maver ran from his cover. After discussing it with the Planteds, they decided to fake being this Vender to be saved by the General.

"I am a Planted!" Maver shouted as soon as he was on a visible platform. He was waving something like a baton to make Flantter notice.

It was a dildo.

Maver was wearing a strange helmet that hid his face. Recalling the description that Lowengren gave when he reached the base, the Planted's knew that Vender could change his voice. He believed that Pioneer Flantter would see through his lies. But this allowed him to declare his allegiance and hope that Flantter would save him.

"Pioneer Flattner… Please…" Maver hoped that Flattner would understand his intention.

"A dildo!" The WGP Commander noticed.

"It is a dildo!" Another Commander answered.

Flantter heard it and readied himself to move. The Gehanna Piercer was nearby, but right before he was about to move, another voice shouted.

"You are all idiots!" A confident voice shouted.

"I'm General Vender!" A man stood up on top of a small mountain of rubble. The stones began to collapse, and this man was having a hard time maintaining their balance.

It was Lowengren. He made the real Vender Hirock make an entrance so as to disrupt the pace and rhythm of the talks. This would allow Maver to speak as well.

Everyone else had a strange expression when they gazed at Lowengren. He was wearing only a mask and white underwear.

"That Exoskeleton and that confused Planted is not the real General Vender! I am!" Lowengren declared.

"Why is he naked?" Flantter was shocked.

Maver laughed. Why would this idiot make such an appearance?

"You're Vender Hirock? Prove it!" Maver challenged.

"Oh? An imbecile with a dildo dares to challenge me?"

"What do you have that more powerful than a dildo?!" Maver asked.

"THIS!" Lowengren showed it.

"My eyes!" A soldier cried.

"How formidable…" Another praised.

"Yup. I'm joining Africa. I am done with this place." A soldier tossed his weapon and began to walk away.

The group looked at the three possible choices.

A damaged Exoskeleton with a possibly dying pilot.

A Planted Soldier.

An exhibitionist who was maintaining his pose as hard as he could.

"It's him!" Magantae suddenly declared.

"You know who it is! Go!" Magantae ordered.

Flantter also moved as he saw the WGP move. He began to shoot the WGP but was then attacked by Team Aqua's Gender Vender and the soldiers nearby.

"Damn it! Everyone attack all of them! Barak! WGP! Team Aqua! Go!" Charles cursed and gave his orders.

As the soldiers still trusted Owens more, the battle prompted the soldiers to fight. Of course, one soldier was now near the sea and sought a means to cross the ocean and live his life as an African.

Flantter flew at a strange direction and arced towards the ground. It was then that he retrieved the Gehanna Piercer.

"Sir Phallus!" Flantter shouted.

"Don't worry. Just throw it." Lowengren answered.

Flantter threw the rocket to the only possible answer. Maver said he was a Planted. And Lowengren had implied that this General Vender was an Aragarian who was secretly serving Presider Crostfree. And this Maver was holding a dildo which meant he might have been a carrier of Phallic Techs.

The moment the rocket was thrown, it was coated in electricity, and the rocket was reactivated. The thrusters activated and raced with incredible speed.

The many attacks from the surrounding soldiers did not damage it as it moved with great speed.

The Gehanna Piercer suddenly roared to life.

But then, Flantter realized that the WGP ignored Maver and headed towards the most obvious contender of who the real Vender Hirock was. They were headed towards the naked man.

"Wha-What?!" Flantter was stunned.

"You idiot!" Lowengren angrily chastised Flantter.

Maver's expression grew grim as he saw the incoming Gehanna Piercer. Why did Flantter throw it? He believed himself to be the strongest contender. In his last moments, he could see the WGP rescuing the naked man.

"Why? But… I have dildos!"

The Gehanna Piercer began to spark bright lightning bolts.

Unbeknownst to everyone, a certain rocket that Vender Hirock fired was directly on top of the falling Gehanna Piercer. The moment the Gehanna Piercer struck the ground near Maver, it exploded.

A powerful bright light that turned the night into day exploded out.

BOOM!

The Gehanna Piercer exploded as well.

When the dust settled, the WGP, Vender Hirock, and the naked man were nowhere to be seen.

Those watching through the satellites lost visuals to the key figures.

All that remained was General Joab Barak and the surviving Caliphate forces.
