What could only be described as a modern military campaign formed within the plasma barrier, V2's flagship continued to shoot missiles, most of them would be deflected towards the skies while the rest impacted the facility's antennas that were raining hell on them in the form of missiles and beams.
*RUMBLE!*
'I only have enough magic for a 1st Tier Spell, it seems I'm going to have to go back to the good old times.'
After placing a magic array in both Sarah and Rachel, combined with all the spells he had used recently, 2nd Tier and 3rd Tier, this is no doubt the day Morpheus has consumed the most out of his magic core, and even as it actively regenerated he'd have to rely on his Seraphin features, light magic and... several other interesting gimmicks.
Null had been falling at a regular pace as she analysed the entire facility with her vision, trying to figure out their objective.
'We will have to do with what we have, there are several tower-like buildings located at your 75º, clear the path for two units to investigate and see if a terminal can be found, if we're lucky,
'Understood.'
She then moved her gaze to the side as her body evaded a missile, but even then, the missile still exploded upon approaching enough to her body.
*BOOOOMMM!!*
"UGH!!"
A forcefield protected her, but the force of the explosion was enough to send her out of the formation.
*FIIUUSSH!!*
She saw how the six-winged shadow fell towards the ground faster than all of them together, falling right in between some ground units!
Morpheus fell like a sonic bullet, noticing that the ground wasn't made out of the soil, but rather, metal.
'Better!'
*BOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMM!!!!*
The God crashed against the ground like a meteor, falling between at least twenty of the enemy corps that had expected nothing but a dull impact.
Nothing farther from the truth, the moment Morpheus crashed against the ground his hands rocketed in a kind of white lightning as he palmed the metallic floor.
*RUMBLE!!*
A dull yet mightful noise resounded, equal to the noise of two colossal ships clashing against one another as that white lightning spread through the entire metal ground of the surroundings, but this wasn't a flash of lightning charged with electricity.
This white lightning gave Morpheus control over a big margin of this floor!
*RUMBLE!!!*
As if the iron ground had turned into a sea, waves started to spread through the entire front of the gigantic building, tumbling all of the forces as they lost their balance, but then, as if alive snakes, the 'metallic' ground contorted and bent in weird shapes, restraining and crushing everything that moved!
*BOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMM!!!-------
*BOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMM!!!-------
*BOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMM!!!-------
Many of the units exploded right at that instant, but as fearless as a machine, they kept coming out and beams permeated through the skies, flashing against the Magic God without any mercy.
'Just this much huh? as expected, I have become too weak...' Raising up, he lifted his hand, pointing his index finger upwards as the metallic ground in a radius of twenty metres started to rise as if he was controlling water, even going as far as to 'melt' the destroyed units and join them to the massive ropes of mutated iron.
While Morpheus disdained his current capacity... Null struggled to not be surprised in front of what she was seeing despite not being human herself.
'Ridiculous... it is not time to delay.'
"Morpheus, our first objective is to reach any of those antennas... we need to find a terminal for me to hack and get the building's scheme, that way I can know where the datacentre and the reactor is. After that, we can sneak in through the main door." Indeed, right now is not the time to be surprised, the more they take, the more time they're giving
*BOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMM!!!!----------
Several of the ship's missiles impacted the tower, but they didn't do anything... clearly, that's not some weak-ass metal.
'It's an alloy of TunsgtenX, they're truly investing everything they got into protecting these facilities, we don't have the firepower to destroy this alloy... but he should be able to... that metal that he's using, it's also TungstenX. an alloy of one of the strongest metals, Tungsten, compressed ten times through the void, it's not something a mere missile can even dent'
Yet, this man... it's taking it and moving it as if it's water!
"Is that so? those antennas?" Morpheus kept moving his finger back and fro, moving the torrents of mutated iron across the land, swallowing the flying missiles, swallowing the shooting units and joining them to his ever-increasing torrents of mutated TungstenX.
He pointed at one of the antennas that were being bombarded by V2's chip and Null nodded as she continued firing at the incoming units, they seemed to be popping out from the floor, the number surely couldn't be counted, but they're weak units...
"I'll send one of my units to enter the terminal if there is one, but we don't have the weaponry to forcefully tear a hole in that material, please... I'll cover you."
Null's entire unit was covered behind shields, firing at the ceaseless units from the facility's defence protocols.
"..." Morpheus blasted an incoming missile with one of his wings and flew straight to one of the towers while the swarms of tungsten followed behind, flashing in white lightning.
He raised up his arm when he reached a moderate distance from the tower, the 'liquid' started to take shape into what could only resemble a gigantic blade, and then... he slashed down.
*SLASH!!*
*BOOOOOOOMMMMMMMM!!!!---------
As if in front of a fantasizing movie, the entire tower got bisected into too... the part above the cut started to slowly slide down as explosions rocketed through the entire internal building.
Null's arms slumped at that moment.
"There, the hole is done... do what you must." The God smirked, his wings did all the job for him, sadly, he didn't have the capacity to control the entire volume of this tower.
"I told you to make a hole... NOT TO DESTROY THE ENTIRE THING!" Null shouted with exasperation as something resembling a grenade fell beside her, if it hadn't been enough annoyance before.
"Details... hurry up and get to this 'terminal'..."
"There might not be any terminal anymore!"

England, Crawley via Brighton.
[ATTENTION: Target Locked On]
...
Flying through the skies at a moderate speed, was what could only be described as a 'mothership'.
A gigantic black ship with at least a hundred metres in length, but twenty metres in height flew while using its anti-gravity engines... wantonly covering the skies without even bothering to use camouflage, it didn't need to.
Wherever this gargantuan ship appears, blood will flow and a group of individuals will die, it would never be deployed to deal with a single individual.
Its mere presence was so imposing and terrorizing, well-known and feared, that no one would dare go against it in this world, no revolutionary group, no independent hacker, no adversary government.
Only a selected group in which the terrorist group, V2, is included.
A compartment within the ship opened slowly, and from there a figure could be seen walking, not mechanically... the way this 'person' walked couldn't be any more human.
But its features depicted it as a robotic piece of engineering.
*RUMBLE!!!*
*BOOOM!!!---*
The figure's two red 'eyes' shone as two bursts of energy exploded from its back, and as if desacceleration and friction didn't exist in this world, the machine flew through the skies at ridiculous speeds, easily destroying the hypersonic barrier.
The main objective of today's hunt...

After a small rant, Null managed to infiltrate one of her corps inside a tower where indeed, there was a terminal.
'The permission granted to this terminal's profile is not high enough to open the main door unhindered, but there are indeed some schemas of the facility, although they seem to be deprecated, they're from three years ago.'
'That should be enough, it can't have changed that much in three years.'
Null was about to tell Morpheus to open the main door with that miraculous power of his, but there was no need.
The door was 'flying' around him after having become a part of his mutated tungsten.
...
'The flagship is running out of ammo and resources, the plasma forcefield still hasn't been dissolved and connection to the metropolitan connection is unavailable, I'll proceed to use protocol: sacrifice'.
'Understoo-!'
*RUMBLE!!!*
Just as V2's ship was about to crash itself against the enemy corps that never stopped spawning, the barrier opened by itself?!
"Ohh...?" Morpheus saw the whole incident with lifted eyebrows, could it be Null did it?
*WOOSSHH!!!*
Without even being able to utter a single word, the moment the barrier dissolved, a gargantuan purple beam directly clashed against V2's flagship!
*BOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMM----------------*
Morpheus and Null saw how the ship got directly obliterated as if it had been paper meeting wildfire, nothing was left behind.
*FIIUSSSH!!*
*BAAANGG!!*
Just as quickly, a phantom snook inside the barrier, landing heavily onto the TungstenX remoulded ground producing a metallic noise upon arrival.
For a few moments, no movements were undertaken as even the enemy's corps started to retreat...
Morpheus' visage remained in this machine as he floated with his arms crossed, still with his shadow mantle active and with a gigantic transmutation mass floating together with him like a metallic river encircling his sacred self.
"..." Null's eyes furrowed deeply beneath the mask when she witnessed this machine's appearance, it had been sooner than she expected...
"It's the Wisdom King from Blitzkrieg... Morpheus, don't underestimate it!"
"Wisdom King? quite the flamboyant title..." Morpheus smirked amusingly, a machine dares to place the word 'wisdom' and 'king' in front of him, hilarious.
"Singularity... Vector2..." The 'Wisdom King' spoke at that moment, now totally raised up as it regarded the two individuals in front of it.
*CLACK!*
*CLACK!*
*CLACK!*
Seemingly giving priority to Morpheus' threat rather than Null's, three small drones were released from its body, flying towards Morpheus who only raised up his eyebrows as they encircled him.
*FIIUSSH!!*
His metallic ocean rotated at that moment but right as he was about to take down these three drones, he felt something and gaped.
!!!
Sarah's array triggered, as he expected she had been in danger.
...
"MORPHEUS! DON'T LET THOSE DRONES-"
[Target
[Warfare Module: Point Blank, Fire...]
It was at that moment that the three drones deployed a three-way forcefield around Morpheus... encasing him inside it.
And a sudden shiny white star appeared within the darkening skies, getting progressively brighter.
Before Null couldn't even finish her words, a shower of brutal world-annihilating plasma covered the Magic God!
*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM---------------------
Within the limits of the forcefield, a gigantic pole of light that shone the entire region, shot up to the skies, not destroying anything outside of that small barrier, but everything inside of it... had to get utterly annihilated.
Null gaped when she saw this, she didn't expect Wisdom King to use outer space measures right off the bat!
'H-How is he!?' With franticness she herself wasn't privy of, Null asked... no, yelled to her 'inner-conscience'.
Right in front of her what lay is utter obliteration, the wisdom king just stood there, seemingly appreciating his work of art.
'... I'm unable to detect life signs at the moment, please wait.' Unlike always, there was a brief pause before she received that communication through her circuits.
...
"Ufff... I hadn't felt pain in so long... that's quite an interesting measure you have there..."
!!!!
*WOOSSH!!*
The triangular forcefield dissolved, as the cloud of smoke within it resurfaced with a vengeance, yes... smoke is all there was.
A triangle-shaped hole dug as far as the eyes could see, but flying atop it was the Magic God, his body suffered several 2nd-degree burns beneath the dark mantle, but otherwise... he's okay.
The Wisdom King glared at the individual that should have been more than a little exterminated by now... perhaps dead is too much to ask.
[Warfare Module: Pointblank, report... the enemy
[Measures ineffective... switching method.]
[Learning...]
...
*WOOSSSHH!!!*
*BOOMMM!!!*
A light phantom flashed through the void, arriving right beside the re-calculating machine in a heartbeat, the sonic boom came too late.
"My turn..."
