Chapter 697 - 377 - Rivers of Blood (Part 2)
Although the disappearance of Major General Lucas, a member of the noble Kain family, warranted a second of sorrow from everyone,
the mission had to continue nonetheless.
They refused to believe that the enemy could pull off so many tricks without paying a price.
Otherwise, why would they consistently carry out sneak attacks in civilian areas?
Admiral Siskan of the Kain household, also direct kin and a charming middle-aged man considered an uncle to Major General Lucas, took over the heavy responsibility of overall command.
Upon the shuttle’s arrival at the Underground City, he ordered the original command post to be bombarded without hesitation.
There wasn’t a trace of consideration that his nephew might still be inside.
After all, the higher-ups, meaning the Kain family, wouldn’t allow anyone but them to continue commanding such important operations.
Moreover, using the new batch of weapons and equipment he brought with him, he launched high-pressure incendiary bombs capable of generating extreme heat.
The intense heat melted the command post’s steel reinforcements into molten iron. The scorching temperatures could be felt by soldiers ten miles away.
There were indeed, at least audibly, results from the battle.
