Outside, only the Empress remained at the hull. She had ordered the other Commanders to retreat and began to look for Seeker.

She soon found him, or rather, Seeker appeared and dealt a powerful attack that created a strange vibration and even caused the Emperor on the skies to feel it.

Emperor Cort was growing impatient. He had to finish this battle quickly.

He grimaced on each devastating attack he delivered. He had consumed a full quarter of the Kraken's energy. But as the enemy's Horn received significant damage on the last clash, Emperor Cort carried on with the attacks.

With another concentrated attack, the Horn finally exploded as a small crack appeared. The Titan then released another surge of lightning that would destroy the Horn from the inside out.

At the attack, the Horn exploded. 

"It looks like your ally is dead." The Empress called out to Seeker.

Seeker laughed.

"That armor was to protect us. The Dragon is now free to roam.

A powerful green light could be seen floating in the skies.

Rosa had allowed herself to fall to the ocean at the destruction of the Horn. Staying next to him would be dangerous even for her. Her Path that could resist Meng's desolation could no longer keep up as Meng grew stronger.

The appearance of the great pale green light that contrasted the bright green of the aurora of the Origin energy. This light started to move as if it was flapping like wings.

Seeker sighed in envy. His desolation has begun to harden. He was getting closer and closer to becoming a real dragon. The green lights grew darker and darker. Soon the wings had a very dark green color that was almost black.

"The Black Dragon from my memories..." The Adult could not help but sigh.

Greydon Meng was able to fly with his strange wings. A small rocket engine was attached on his back.

"Let's finish this." With his wings to guide his flight, Meng towards the Titan.

The large Titan reacted quickly and tried to swat Meng like a fly, but a tremendous force green force covered Meng, and it was as if a large arm with claws appeared.

It quickly hardened and turned black as it clashed with the Titan.

BOOM!

The Empress was shocked at the scene. But instead of worry, she was excited. She would finally be reunited with her love.

"Alright. You guys seem quite strong. So you said that I must do my Invoking. Why?" She asked as she continued to attack Seeker.

"To kill the enemy. Those that the Progenitor feared are here. Hiding in the skies above." Seeker answered.

"Then, when should I do the Invoking? If Emperor Cort had not summoned the Call of Titans, I would have made the Call of Poseidon. But now, I would need sufficient reason to make that Call. Even more, if you want me to make the strongest Invoking, I can do."

"Oh, you'll know when to make that call." Seeker laughed.

"For now, we fight!" 

"Alright. This auntie will take care of you!" The Empress charged forward. Knowing that Seeker wouldn't dare kill him, the Empress made her move.

As the battle continued, the situation inside the Kraken continued to play out. No one knew where the Admiral was, and everyone followed the orders of Chase.

With Chase by their side, Roselyn and Stanley could procure an Exoskeleton from the many rooms. 

Sammy also wore his own, and as the group traveled, they did not look conspicuous. As the team appeared on several parts of the Kraken and could be seen by the Commanders, they did not ask any questions and concluded that Chase asked them to accompany him. They had heard Chase order several soldiers along the way, and so, having three Exoskeletons accompanying him was not suspicious.

The group traveled towards the area where the main buoyancy chamber was as Chase explained that he was hoping to meet the Admiral.

The Commanders sent various teams to guard the high-ways inside the Kraken in case the Admiral went back to his Armor. The Armor's shell was soon found, but the Admiral was nowhere in sight.

As for Sammy and the team, they were about to part ways.

"And that's the mission. I believe that if you get to the bottom of the wreckage, you can be rescued.

"But why not the reactor? Why attack that area of the Kraken? Wouldn't we be able to destroy the Kraken if we attacked the reactor?" She was confused as she continued to follow Sammy. 

Sammy could only smirk. 

"Just follow my directions. I'm out. Richie's calling." Sammy gave his last reminders before moving along with Chase. 

Roselyn and Stanley glanced at each other. 

"Let's just do this. It does make sense. Our orders were never to destroy the Kraken. But to sink it!' Stanley explained. 

"I guess you're right." Roselyn sighed and went towards the weapons silo near the main buoyancy chamber.

The weapon silos were the most protected and guarded facility in the entire Kraken. The silo was a room which placed all the explosive underwater.

The liquid that was used was one of Canadas's most advanced liquid-ice techs. This was the concentration of Canadian Frost technology. It was this tech that matched the dangers of Hellfire technology and was even able to put it out. And right here, a large pool with all the dangerous silos being submerged made this area a lot safer than it would have been.

Detonating a rocket in this room would not cause a chain reaction because of various factors.

The pool was something that could significantly reduce hit and even absorb explosions of fire. It was dubbed the Kevlar of explosions and science, which made Canada strong enough to resist the Americas on the many skirmishes it had.

The frost had the strange ability to "spread" and pass on its coldness faster than regular ice. It was in this way that Hellfire technology, which could also spread heat, found its match. Through the spreading of the ice, even a WGP Exoskeleton would not be immune to this tech. The pilot would die from the frost even before the Exoskeleton would be damaged from the constant coldness. This made it practically impossible for ordinary soldiers to retrieve any of the rockets locked up in this room.

Tyler's team entered the room with instructions on how to open the door manually. 

The room had walking platforms that were floating on top of a deep blue pool. The entire room looked like a large grid with the walking platforms forming the lines, and the spaces in between the squares were the water. The water had a weak bluish glow and was transparent. The glow was faint, and with the Unlocked's enhanced eyesight, the group was able to see the various weapons and missiles positioned on each square of the grid.

Every single one of these silos was something that no other country could match. It applied various techs and even fused various sciences that many countries developed. 

The entire room was shut down. The refrigerating devices that provided a great increase in the room's cold temperature were also turned off. Of course, logically, turning this device off wouldn't be a problem. The cold refrigerating effect was only to increase the cold temperature of the liquid and maintain it. But without the devices that cooled the room, it would still take days before the liquid's temperature would drop. 

Of course, Sammy made Chase shut down the room so that no one could monitor what was going on inside it.

Chase had asked the Commanders what to do with the room.

The Commanders feared that perhaps the Admiral could manually bypass the system and force one of the rockets to be launched. Another way was to retrieve the missiles with the devices and pull them out of the cold liquid. It was impossible to take if someone would use a simple Exoskeleton. Unless someone was able to bring in a large crane that could function even with the frost, there was no possible means of getting the rocket out.

Chase only had to bring up the topic, and it was the Commanders themselves voted to shut down the device.

Even if it were the Admiral's Exoskeleton, the seeping coldness would kill a person as every inch of the human body would have their temperature immediately drop. This sudden change of temperature could kill a person.

And while the technology to resist the coldness was present, no one in the Kraken. After all, gaining access and abusing the weapons facility was something that could potentially destroy the Kraken itself.

And so, Tyler and his team immediately rushed towards the top of the many pools and went for a specific submerged missile. With Sammy and Chase working together, the group found a particular weapon.

One weapon was the enhanced version of New Great Britain's Wrath of Zeus. It was a weapon designed to penetrate and create a powerful concentrated explosion like that of a needle. Its blast would not spread out but would concentrate on a specific spot as if it was going to pierce through it.

The other weapon was a weaker version of the technologies used to make Europe's Big Bang Boom. This was one of the most potent explosive weapons with the same explosive force of a nuclear bomb. It could create devastation. But this bomb did not have any environmental hazards as it would not generate any radiation.

"Good. Just as Roselyn said, it is shut down. Alright. Remember, even if its shut down, the frost is still terrifying. Don't worry about triggering any alarms. Chase fooled the Commanders into doing a total shut down of this facility because they were afraid of the Admiral doing something. So without the plug, there are no alarms in this place that could trigger it." Tyler explained.

"So, taking a dip down there would be about just as cold as that temperature that Ranked Hero Rosa made?"

"That's what we are assuming. So keep your body temp as high as possible. Tap twice if you want to pull as out. If not, go ahead. We won't be able to pull you up with this rope since it might immediately freeze. Hank, Counter, Zidane. Get ready. If Earl can't resist the cold very long, then you are to run and fight your way and get to Roselyn and Stanley's position and pull those weapons for them." Tyler then used a metal cable to tie Earl's Exoskeleton.

"If after taking a dip inside, you think it's too much, tap out. If underwater, and you think you won't make it, tap twice on anything so we can send someone down to save you." Tyler reminded once more.

Earl nodded.

"Take too long, and you would die from the frost, or even if you do come out, you might still accidentally kill yourself from autophagy in trying to burn your cells. Remember your training." Tyler added.

Earl immediately dove to the deep water and moved as fast as he could.

The chilling frost immediately attacked Earl. It seeped into his Exoskeleton and affected his body.

Earl rushed towards the area where the missile was and continuously raised the heat.

"It's weaker than Rosa's frost. Thank goodness!" As having experienced various battles against the Ranked Heroes, he recalled fighting Rosa. It was Rosa who trained most soldiers to increase their body temperature and pressured them with an extreme frost that could seep into the bones almost immediately.

The basic principles that Seeker revealed on his first clash with Rosa was an oddly simple technique. With his Unlocked powers and his superior control of his body, Seeker shivered. 

The shivering was so powerful that the heat he generated could actually be felt by those nearby. Everyone was trained on how to drop and raise his temperature continually. The training was relatively easy, that even Gardo managed to learn it. Of course, his biology was one reason he could push down his body's temperature.

And so, Earl was quickly able to dive into the deep pool and retrieve the rocket. He used his Exoskeleton to attack the various clamps that held the rocket and immediately pulled it out and resurfaced.

"Scribbs can get the other missile. It's not that dangerous. But I don't think I have enough energy to go down again." Earl reported as he emerged from the water. The cold remained but the constant heat that. 

On two other places, the same scene was occurring.

"This isn't so hard! It's weaker than Rosa's!" Dara laughed as she moved down and grasped the missile and broke the various locks that held it in. She didn't even emerge but swam towards the other part and got the other rocket that needed.

As for Roselyn and Stanley, despite using the Exoskeleton of the WGP, they could manage one trip back and acquired their respective missiles. 

Let's go. It's been five minutes." Roselyn rushed out, and Stanley followed.

Stanley continued to count how long it has been. As for their mission, they were ordered to detonate both rockets on a precise time. Chase had already explained how to arm these missiles, and Roselyn had cascaded this information through the broadcast. The missile was immediately armed. If the warhead received tremendous pressure, it would explode or if an external heat would penetrate it.

The moment each team left the weapon silo, the chaos within the Kraken became more chaotic.

Commander Drake was attacked by one of his companions, and the other two soldiers who were reported with him were also killed.

The battle was soon transmitted as Drake reached an area where the cameras were working. More soldiers were caught up in the battle between Commander Drake and the mysterious WGP Exoskeleton.

The traitor wore a standard suit, but his piloting skills were so excellent that it made Drake look like an amateur. More soldiers were rushing towards the location of the Commander.

The Admiral managed to use some communication rooms and witnessed the battle between Drake and the mysterious Exoskeleton.

The battle that the two had wasn't fake. Drake was close to death if it weren't for the soldiers who came to rescue their Commander.

The mysterious Exoskeleton immediately escaped when more soldiers arrived.

"Chase him! It's the Admiral!" The wounded Chase shouted.

The Admiral cursed as he saw the video feed.

He was once again being blamed as the enemy. But the fight was so real. Chase received several attacks that pierced right through his Exoskeleton. In the Admiral's perspective, he even thought that Chase received a critical injury.

"What's going on? Is Chase not a traitor despite his questionable past? No! That Exoskeleton must have been either in league with Chase and played out this scene or is one of those mysterious invaders!" The Admiral concluded and rushed towards the reactor of the Kraken.

While everyone focused on these places, the Covenant, Tyler's team, and Roselyn and Stanley finally reached their assigned locations. 

Roselyn and Stanley had gone their separate ways. Stanley rushed towards the damaged buoyancy chamber while the rest were positioned on three main elevators.

These Elevators were no longer functioning as part of the protocol and would only work if the Commanders enabled it. As such, all the Elevators would automatically position itself on the lowest floor of the Kraken that was deep underwater.

The respective groups destroyed the elevator doors and prepared to drop the missiles.

"Drop it now!" Tyler ordered.

Elsewhere, Titan said the same thing.

And finally, Roselyn also made the drop.

Stanley had placed his missile inside the wreckage of the main buoyancy chamber and had retreated. His fingers were right on top of the trigger.

Roselyn dropped the rocket half a second earlier than Tyler and Dara.

With the weights each team tied to the rocket, the warhead fell headfirst.

Half-way through the fall of the first, Tyler and Dara's team immediately threw the missile and rushed to escape.

Back outside, the battle between the Titan and the dark-winged creature continued. The Emperor had used more parts of the Kraken to replace the parts of his body that the enemy could destroy.

Yet this wasn't enough of a reason.

The Empress knew that the WGP could still be watching this battle through the Kraken's video feeds. 

"What exactly are you waiting for? I need a solid reason to do my full-"

BOOM!

BOOM!

BOOM!

BOOM!

Several places of the Kraken exploded out, causing a great trembling.

The explosions pierced through the hull, and four large holes piercing right towards the ocean was made. Kraken.

The Empress was shocked at this sight. The Kraken was difficult to pierce through from the outside because of its ingenious designs. But an explosion of that force from the inside would have terrifying consequences.

For the first time, in the history of the WGP, the legendary sea monster that has sent countless ships to the deep abyss is now sinking to the abyss.

The Empress was shocked. Even with everything she witnessed tonight, she still hadn't expected that Seeker's goal was to sink the Kraken.

"As you can see, we don't need Medusa's head. I believe, that this should be enough of a reason for you to make that Invoking.." Seeker laughed.
