"You have me on your side this time, so this won’t be like the battle at the Null Zone; you can be assured of that."
Hector felt a sudden surge of raw hope pouring out from somewhere deep inside him when he heard Jason say this! For a long time, Hector had managed to get rid of every thread of hope that ever rose from his heart about killing this beast! Hector had seen what the Pharynx was truly capable of, and he had always thought that it was impossible for humanity to ever defeat a beast like this! Things had gotten so bad that Hector had secretly been working on a Project known as EDEN that would allow two young humans to escape this planet so they could repopulate a different world and continue the human race, and Hector had even decided that Haruto and Rei would be the teenagers to leave this world since he knew that they were the most compatible pair! That was how bad things had gotten! Hector didn’t have the slightest belief that they could win this battle against the Pharynx! But at this very moment, Hector felt all the hope that he had been suppressing rising once again against his will! Was there really a chance for them to win this!?
Hector knew that they didn’t have any power that could help them fight against the Pharynx itself, but if they had Jason on their side, then wouldn’t things be completely different! Hector felt his hands squeeze into fists and his eyes narrowed! Why was he even thinking about this!? This wasn’t just some random encounter that they had with this man! The gods themselves had sent Jason to help them, and Hector was still doubting himself!? No! It didn’t matter what happened from this moment forward! They were going to join Jason and fight against this beast right here and now! Because Hector knew that the odds had always been stacked against humanity ever since the Pharynx arrived on Varigan, and this was the first time in history that Hector could see a possibility of complete victory for humanity!
Hector immediately switched the comms to another signal that would allow him to communicate with all the various squads in all the settlements of Varigan, and he spoke in a serious tone.
[To all Zen Mecha Pilots in all Varigan Settlements, my name is Hector Zen, and I come to you today with a message of hope. For years, we have been tormented by the Pharynx, unable to stand up to its destructive might. But today we have been granted a chance to fight back and eradicate this monster once and for all. We have been granted a saviour. I call on all of you to place your trust in me today more than ever before. Forget all of your missions. Forget all of your duties. Move immediately to the Giverna Valley with your Mechas. I understand that this is a sudden mission, but this is the moment you have all been waiting for your entire lives. Today, we will kill the Pharynx, and you must play your part.]
All across Varigan, teenagers were looking up in shock as they heard the voice of their commander through the comms! Teenagers who were training, bathing, sleeping, or on missions around the world could all sense the intensity in Hector’s voice and words, and they knew that this wasn’t just some drill! This was real, and they had no choice but to accept this mission! The pilots immediately began to hurry to change and get into their mechas! They were all teenagers, children that should be in school, or going on dates to try and build a future, but they had dedicated their entire lives to fighting for humanity, and they never once thought about their chances of survival as they paired up and entered their mechas quickly! The roar of large helicopters powering on made the ground rumble as they attached long cords to the Zen Mechas, and dozens of helicopters took off at the same time and carried the Zen Mechas as they made their way to the Giverna Valley. Hector took in a breath, and for the first time in his very long life, he said a prayer to a god he didn’t believe in. This had to work! If this didn’t work, then they would all die!
At the Giverna Valley, Jason hummed in curiosity as he formulated a proper plan in his mind. The valley was extremely large, and there was more than enough space to hold a battle. Jason’s Legion was more than powerful enough to take care of the Pharynx, and the only issue they would have is how many Lynx the Pharynx would be able to create at once. Right now, there were more than five hundred Lynx attacking Jason’s subordinates already, and from what Jason could see, the Pharynx could still create more. Jason needed to kill the Pharynx before this got out of hand.
’Go in there and help Raya drag it out. Try not to damage the core too much.’
Jason gave a simple command to his Legion, and more than a hundred of them appeared from his Alternate Dimension. The large Diamond Bear Boss roared into the sky, and all the soldiers around took several steps back in fear when they saw the sheer number of monsters that had been called out! The Diamond Bear glared at everything around it before it turned to Jason and poked him with its nose. Jason just patted the beast calmly before gesturing towards the ground and telling it to get a move on! The bear huffed before it turned and began to dig into the earth! The other subordinates followed after the Diamond Bear as they went deeper, and Hayley spoke up in confusion.
"What are you planning to do?"
"Just brace yourselves. And don’t get in the way when the fighting starts. If you can’t hold your own against the Lynx, then find a safe place and wait there."
Gina was the one who answered, and Hayley frowned for a moment before she told all the soldiers to get ready for a battle! The soldiers began to move their armored trucks to one side, and the Mechas shifted into a battle formation to wait for their orders. The entire valley was silent for a few seconds as nothing seemed to even breathe, and Jason smiled as his subordinates reached the core and emerged right on top of the Pharynx.
Jason immediately activated a Legion skill.
[Kamikaze] has been activated!
DOON!
All the soldiers immediately stumbled as the ground under their feet rumbled with intensity! Some of them fell to their asses in shock, and both James and Hayley had to hold onto the cars beside them to try and stay on their feet! Jason and Gina were just watching the empty space in front of them calmly, and Hayley spoke.
"What happened!? Did something get destroyed!? Was it the Pharynx...!?"
Neither Jason nor Gina bothered to answer the barrage of questions, and Hayley was about to ask it again so she could understand what was going on, but before she could even open her mouth, she felt another massive explosion rock the ground under her feet! This time, the rumble wasn’t the simple shaking of the earth that had happened before! No, this was something deeper! The entire world seemed to be shaking and vibrating at the same time! There was a deep, intense tremor that prevented anyone from being able to stay on their feet at all! Hayley looked to the side, and she was shocked to see that even the giant Zen mecha were being forced to take steps back from how much the ground was shaking!
