The war was finally on its second stage and the King ordered finally for the anomalies to be bought out. On the battlefield was anomaly 3 : Her Highness. But because of her habits a voice modulator was strapped to her mouth such that the voice will be only in the front. And her neck was held in place by hand such that she wouldn't have the chance to get the Foundation troops in her control.
Her head was held by Phoenix and neither Phoenix nor Roy were royalty. To deal with this they were granted the title of King of two territories for 4 minutes each. Finally Phoenix became the former king of Weiss land and Roy the King of AREA-KC119. located to the northernmost part of the Foundation.
She was given a megaphone and from the megaphone she shouted.
Highness :
This is against my wishes, leave me at once peasants.
Roy :
You are in no position to negotiate. Do whatever we say. Disobey then we shall send you to the gods directly.
She knew she was on no position to negotiate with her eyes bloodshot from rage she shouted with all her might.
Highness :
Peaseants stand down.
Those who heard it stood still just staring at their highness. They had been entranced. The initial outcome was less as the noise from the stampede drowned her voice.
Such that she shouted once again.
Highness :
This is your queen, I order you once again to stand down.
This time many more heard it. About 20000 standing in front of them. They were just left standing. The troops behind tried to knock some sense into them.
Soldier 1 :
Why are you standing still. We need to attack them.
Controlled soldier :
You want us to raise arms against our Queen. You need to be taught a lessons.
The controlled soldier raised his sword and struck the soldier down. And just like a quick blazing chain reaction soon the twenty thousand followed suit. In a daze and being controlled they raised their arms against their own.
The normal soldiers tried their hardest to not hurt their comrades. But on the flip side they would do anything even attempt suicide.
King :
Prepare anomaly 4 as well. And get anomaly 6 on standby.
If they refuse to take us seriously then we'll also have to do the same.
It was like a war but with a deck of cards but the question is which game are they playing. The King know that they have hidden cards under their sleeve but it was it would be risky to send someone to confirm.
Meanwhile,
Captain :
Commander, it's an emergency our troops have been brainwashed and they are attacking our own.
Commander :
Hold out for a more time. We can't strike until we have seen their hand. They are capable of killing angels after all. Have we identified their strongest.
Captain :
Yes, we have may I read their names.
Commander :
Yes I want to hear their titles.
Captain :
There's a peculiar made up title I received . Enemy of the abyss. We haven't been able to decipher a name yet. But I'm sure he's the backbone of the war.
Commander :
Enemy of the abyss. Who does this belong to.
Captain :
We are on it right now. They haven't shown themselves.
Commander :
Identify them and report as well as deploy the anti mind hack device.
Captain :
Yes commander.
And as per the orders from the back of the field the angels tried to flee something in. It was a huge metal box which was very conspicuous was being bought by the angels. And it was very difficult not to notice it.
Phoenix :
Shall I?.
King :
I want to see what will they do. If I'm guessing correct it's an mind restoration device.
King :
Sniper 01 and sniper 02 shoot the angels
Within a few seconds the angels were seen falling down from the sky I guess you can now call them the fallen angels.
The fallen which were watching from afar was empathetic and feeling the pain as they saw their own kind falling from the sky like birds. And the cargo they were carrying also fell
The God's from the heaven were watching. The Humans fight on the ground.
Death :
What is that girl thinking she's just letting her troops be killed one after the another. She killed two thrones to just turn some land. Do you know how much of a pain it is to give birth to a throne.
Life :
The burden of pain is mine to bear. Watching all of my children raise arms against each other. My heart aches with each moment. This war can't it be stopped. If not I will head down myself.
Peace :
Seeing war is also plaguing the peace in the lands but because of this Chaos. Why don't we expel him such that there shall always be peace in the lands. I will make it a true sanctuary myself before our Lord has to even lift a finger.
Chaos :
...
Darkness :
We can descend and end it all. But the commander has a very huge grudge on the Immortals that we all share don't we.
Let her have the moment, if something turns wrong. Then it will be more benifcial for us to intervene.
Since when do God reach out at the beginning instead at the brink of despair.
Didn't Phizon teach us that value is only born at the time of need.
The point was clear only to arrive at the end. To farm value and trust.
Chaos :
What has happened to you. You weren't like this none of us were. Can't we go back to the old days?
Peace :
If the olden days is your desire then why don't you bring them back.
There was nothing that could halt the war mongerors scheming. They were themselves becoming ungodly.
Meanwhile on the land.
A great news had arrived for the struggling heavenly army.
Captain :
The gods have allowed use of their army without barring.
Commander :
Wonderful news. How are things proceeding outside.
Captain :
They are struggling against themselves. The Foundation has broken the device.
Commander :
Order them to kill anyone who moves against the army.
Even if they are our own.
The captain took the order and relayed them to the soldiers.
The soldiers who heard this message were shocked that they had been ordered to kill their own brethren. Some of them froze and got killed themselves. Some of them like cold blooded machines fought back and raised their weapons. While some had lost their entire motivation and tried to flee.
This was clearly an ethics violation and nothing could be done until the second machine was deployed.
At first the army was taking losses but then for survival the Humans began fighting back. Some hacked their comrades out of respect some were bloodthirsty that anything would be fine. The ones who had good skills were able to subdue them with non lethal methods. Only to be killed by a bullet from far away. Or luckily dodging them.
At this time some had began to yawn while some were horrified of the desb bodies which had started to pile up.
If the sword demon would have been here he would have been exhilarated.
But many of the young prodigies were ordered to stay behind. Unless absolutely required.
From the heavens a fleet of seraphims of different groups arrived but instead of pile driving straight into the other side. They split directions and went into separate directions.
Phoenix :
We might have to split, there are five Seraphim heading into five separate directions. And one heading straight towards us.
If the Seraphim were heading in different directions then it's possible that they were trying to cut of supply chains or attack from the back or get in a tactical positions. Where hitting the Foundation would be easiest without much interference.
King :
Deploy the sentinels have the split into groups of 2.
The sentinels which were itching for war theoretically finally had a chance to prove their worth. These sentinels were built from the ground up just for the intention of fighting angels. They have several and poisons at their disposal and their body is made up of seperable frames which connected very tightly via electromagnets. Their consciousness was connected via the hive mind but they also retain a separate developed personality. Thus they have dual personality.
The hive mind controls them unless absolutely needed.
They are also divided into generations and depending on the generations their specs are also different.
The thirteen sentinels are named as such..
1st generation :
The first generation has a very rudimentary systems and a in flight system. But lacks weapon variety. Can fight for days and recharge energy via the sun and and inbuilt mana convertor.
Christina and Markov.
2nd generation :
The second generation gives them an extra durable frame with the newest components and an inbuilt antenna for backup. It has increased weapon variety and an inbuilt bomb for Kamikaze attacks.
Reynar, Cresse, Marnie
3 rd generation :
Major advancement in energy generation and energy diversion allowing them to use an inbuilt rail gun and apply enhancements to weapons just like mana stones. The runes are now inscribed under the skin this there are no visible marks or symbols on the skin.
Flora, Codena, Bellor
4th generation :
Have advanced analysis that analyze the moves of the opponent and devise strategies for neutralization. Frame and components improvements. Can use mana for mana combat.
Granz, Tobias, Ori.
* The Loki units were also from these generations *.
Latest generation :

Sekar(Anomaly 7) and Kitara
The hive mind cannot dilute or change their personality and the behaviour of other sentinels as per mana oath.
These sentinels were now charging towards the Seraphim.
