Nexus observing the live feed of the movements of the said Battlefield .
"As discussed, Jugranths commence firing and maintain the line, then fall back in 25 sec delay. Seven of cloaked Eclipse Fangs, moved to their assigned vectors and support the Ironveils till Jugranths are retreated."
"Riftguard RG1 to RG 5, follow the Eclipse Fangs and activate the ADB (Area Denial Bubbles). Control the enemy advances."
"Three of the Five Crownlord take the Jugranths' places and support the
shield of Ironveil."
Nexus gave the orders constantly. Then after some time the Jugranths are retreated and Crownlord took their places.
As the new formation became stable, he thought.
It is time to be active, get ready for the Fireworks SERTHRAX DAWN.
"Jugranths execute siege formations. Pincer the enemy with the help of the Ashdancers."
"AD1 to AD10 follow the both Jugranths, 5 for each. Harass and intercept their ships. Provide the area for Jugranth to fire."
"Remaining 8 Ashdancers form three squads of three in side and two in middle. Maintain the enemy center till both Jugranths flanked, then go rogue."
"Try to lure as much as their Maelvarn carriers."
Nexus finished the commanding and called the Alfred. As always the AI flickered at the side of Nexus.
[Yes, Grand Commander.]
"Ready the both Jugranth Prime."
[As you command.]
This is the secret weapons that Nexus mentioned in the communication with
Kaios. These are the custom-built Dreadnoughts. In the battle between the both rank 1 and rank 2, there is the unspoken rule to not use any Super Capital
level battle ships. Otherwise, losses would be catastrophic, even for them. That is why Capital Battleships are the highest level used in the battles.
But this time CLAYMONT REQUIM made two custom-built Capital level Battleships,
those have the same level of firepower as that of Super Capital Battleships.
These are the two Jugranth Prime, but due to having the insane firepower they have to sacrifice its defenses, due to this nerf it will not be categorized into Super Capital level.
They had invested heavily to win this battle and snatching the rank 1 from the SERTHRAX DAWN.
As the NEXUSSIRE preparing their secret weapon to defeat their enemy fleet, on the other side of battle, oblivious to this Kaios or Kaisor continuously observing the new development from the CLAYMONT REQUIM sides.
Kaios looked at the squad of Jugranth and Ashdancers performing pincers from
flank and Eclipse Fang cleaning the front liners with the help of the Riftguard.
He also saw the remaining eight Ashdancers going crazy in the center.
Kaios chuckled as he saw this, "So they finally came out from their cave, huh… well, let's start the show shall we."
"Cortana, initiate the 'Domain' and secure the flanks first."
"As you wish, Grans Commander."
Cortana send the order to initiate 'Domain' as per the command of Kaios. All the battleship started to move in their pre decided paths.
"Vortex class form the secure the flank, use three on each side. Activate 45 second ADB for two to one at the delay of 17 second. Match the timing."
"Spitefang 1 to 14 intercept their ADs on flank with 5 to 7. SP1 (Shadepiercer) to SP6 fall back and engage with the Jugranths on both side with 1 to 3."
"Maelvarn 3 go to the Left flank for support. Maelvarn 2 retreat and go to the right."
"Remaining Spitefang from 15 to 20 take the place of Maelvarns and join the 9 SPs to break the balance."
"BM 1 slow the advance. BM2 and BM3 increase the advance to create gap."
"MV1(Maelvarn) send the support towards Gap created by BM1, attack the ships those are trapped."
"Maintain this until I order otherwise."
This is the one of battle formations created by Kaios which hadn't used by now.
Its code name 'Domain'. This formation was created to counter the pincer. It used ADBs to secure the both flank by not giving any opportunities to the battleships of other side to close the distances. Then the interceptors will deal with the fast mobile ships of the opponent while anti battleships will try
to destroy their siege or Dreadnoughts.
In the front line the tanks will form the crescent shape while luring the enemies then destroy them by the help of carrier ships.
Some time passed till the initiation of the 'Domain'. The balance that slightly
shifted in the favor of the CLAYMONT REQUIM is now completely tilted after
Kaios's command.
Their fleets are decreasing rapidly. Their frontline is also getting pushed. The damage upon the Capitals is heavy.
Inside the mothership of CLAYMONT REQUIM.
"H..how the hell our battleships are getting destroyed this quickly."
Nexus is surprised as well as fuming in the anger seeing the destruction of their fleet. His stress level is increasing with every destroyed ships.
"Alfreds, reports.", Nexus asked in frustration.
[Sir, fifty-five percent of the fleet is destroyed
3 Ironveils are destroyed, 4 are at only 40% capacity.
Jugranth on the left is at only 34 percent, while right side is at 55 percent.
2 Aegiron are destroyed and half of the Eclipse Fang are demolished.]
"What about the interceptors (Ashdancer) and Riftguards.", Nexus asked while clenching his fists.
[10 Ashdancers survived from the deployed 13, of the 5 Riftguard 2 are demolished.]
"What are our current capabilities?", Nexus thinking about his next moves.
[Ironveils-7
Aegion-3
Eclipsefang-6
Ashdancers-15
Riftguard-6
Grand Commander, this is our current numbers,that survived after the battle.]
[Jugranth, Crownlord and Aegion being the partially operational.
Also, the full number of Oathkeepers, Sol Invictus maintained their full numbers, as they are not deployed]
As Nexus heard this, his face gained some colour.
"Alfred, deploy all remaining Crownlord to the front to form a defense line, control the losses."
"Send both the Sol Invictus to the place of the Riftguard, maintaining the balance on each side."
"Use the Oathkeepers as the support for these and to ambush the strayed ones, when opportunity arrives."
"Order the both Jugranth to retreat towards the Oathkeepers for the remote repair, use the remaining Ashdancers as screen to open the way."
Amidst giving the order Nexus pondered.
It is too soon to reveal it, but there is
no way either.
"Also Alfred…"
[Yes, Sir]
"Start preparing the Jugranth Prime."
Soon Nexus finished giving the new commands to the fleet. After the commands
were given the fleets started to move as per the order.
Kaios is observing all this from the command center, as he is looking at the
movements of enemy fleet suddenly Cortana's voice heard from a holograph.
[Sir, a large amount radiation is detected from the rear side of the enemy
fleet.]
[It is suspected to be an attack at the level of Super Capital level.]
Kaios was surprised as he heard it from Cortana.
It could not be a Super Capital level
battleship, Nexus will not be this dirty handed.
Kaios calmed and ordered, "Send the fastest knight drone and use LIDAR to
check only outline."
[Knight Drone, Deployed.]
After Half a minute.
Beep…
[Scan completed
Hull Analyzed: 78% matched with Jugranth
Result: A custom Jugranth, Low Super Capital
Level attack power, Below Sub level Defence.]
So, this is their secret weapon Nexus was
talking about. Hmm.. custom Jugranth.
"How much time does we have, till the impact.", Kaios asked to
Cortana
[ESTIMATING THE TIME OF IMPACT
TIME ESTIMATED:
13 MINUTES 45 SECOND]
Kaios thought about it for a second.
Well, Nexus you forced my hand. This was a good battle while it lasted.
"Cortana", Kaios called
[Yes, Sir.]
"Activate Dance Of Destruction: Wrath of Ra'…"
