I'm the King Of Technology



1961 Counterattacking Is A Must!

It was incredible to think that the war that seems to have lasted for an eternity, was finally over.

Sadly, they did lose a few good souls, causing the atmosphere in Baymard to remain heavy.

Rather than having a 2-day period to mourn the dead, Landon gave an exception once more, giving 7 whole days for mourning

Families wept when they got the news, but didn't regret their children/partners or relatives ever joining the

army.

No!

It was a privilege to fight and die as Martyr to keep them all safe.

If everyone refused to go to war, who would protect their great empire?

A long time familiar pain eroded the hearts of all Raymardians, as some rewatched the battle, weeping and kowtowing to those who fell in battle.

Thank you... Thank you for protecting us."

A grand mass was held at the Cathedral, with all bodies placed in coffins and kept out on the vast open courtyard that resembled Rome's Vatican back on Earth, only it was 3 times bigger.

On day 5, the Grand mass was held, and everyone in the entire Baymard wore black.

The Cathedral was so full tk the bum that one could see a long line of figures in black engulfing miles and miles f street.

Projectors were stationed and many watched the mass from various corners of Baymard.

A total of 40 Priests took over the ceremony, as they sprinkled holy water on the coffins and did prayers to the ancestors to please, warmly accept the fallen.

Ambassadors from various UN empires and even monarchs who were already in Baymard, attended the mass. singing alongside everyone, as they held the Hymnals (mass booklets), singing hymn to hymn and following along.

Today went down in history as one of the saddest days the world had ever known.

Pictures of the fallen were being high and paraded, and on the trees, the dreary parade made many cry themselves to stupor.

Even children of 1 who truly didn't understand anything, were crying and mourning bitterly while their parents carried them tight.

"Mother, I will become a soldier... I will become strong and protect you and our people!" A young boy of 7 proclaimed, with teary eyes, clenching his trembling fists in fury.

His mother on the other hand, nodded proudly, rubbing his head warmly "I believe you, my little baby. Whatever you do, your mother will support you. But you must learn to protect yourself and do your hardest... mother will look forward to the day you wear that uniform too!"

What a sad day indeed.

The world had never seen such a laborious Funeral before. It shocked many Non-treaty empires that such a procession wasn't for a King, but for ordinary peasants who died at war.

Crazy! Crazy!

The world was truly going crazy!

The families of the fallen were also treated well.

Every month for the next 15 years, they will receive a sizable compensation,

It will be delivered by cheque, or submitted directly to their bank accounts.

In today's military within Baymard, most soldiers had already made their wills, talk less of settling how their military compensations will be distributed.

Many had already stated that in the case of their deaths, their military compensations should go to their wives, children, parents, etc.

If one person dies, there is a secondary and tertiary beneficiary to receive compensation.

Again, some people stated that all compensations should be kept with a well-known Trustee organization. The organization can only allow their families to take a certain percentage of what is paid out, until their families reach a certain age.

There is a young soldier who died today, whose wife also died during childbirth 7 years ago before Baymard was truly the Baymard of today.

His son was now 7 years old. For him, he stated that only after his son has reached the age of 16, can he get the full money paid once every 6 months.

Before then, the Trustees will make sure to pay his tuition and the mortgage for the home they live from the compensatory amount paid.

In the end, that was the best thing to do.

Even many UN and Non-UN empires were shocked by the way Baymard took care of its people.

No wonder the citizens here still looked forward to becoming soldiers despite the gruesome battle.

Baymard truly took care of its own, and those registered as spouses or children of Martyrs were hailed as children of heroes.

They had a particular card given to them that granted them 10-15% off several services in Baymard. They would enjoy the benefits of this card until they die.

...

Like so, the deaths of the fallen were handled carefully and with utmost priority in Baymard.

For the next month and a hall, several people wore black from head to toe.

In Baymard, everyone subconsciously agreed to only wear black, and no one else wore anything of color

excited about their work or school uniforms.

And after a month, color clothes slowly came back, with many no only only wearing black.

Now, they could wear black shirts with blue pants and so on.

At least one of their items must be black, even if it's a black bracelet and nothing else.

Today, Landon met with several others to discuss the war they barely won.

Several people still had dark faces when recalling the war.

Minister Devin from the Ministry of National Defense, Minister Gonovich from the Industry of Innovation, science and technology, Lucius, and several others were here.

Bam!

Gonovich slammed his fists hard on the table. "Damn those Morgs! So they also mastered enhanced metal technology? What would have happened if we faced them with our former metal strength?"

Wouldn't their weapons be cut like tofu if that was the case?

Several people nodded with heavy faces, feeling that indeed, one could never be too careful in this world, While they were building up their forces, who knew the enemy was also advancing their tech in the same

way?

They suddenly understood that the world doesn't stand still for them.

If they did not keep advancing, others would overtake them sooner or later.

And in this cruel world, it would be they who got eliminated without mercy.

Fortunately, they had his Majesty Landon on their hands, a tech wizard whose brain was far beyond their reach. It was because of him that they could get to where they were today.

Again, this also allowed them to understand that Morgany itself was also no joke. Adonis too had somchow advanced their technology as well.

Their shields, although not as strong as Adonis, were also stronger than ordinary metal.

Everyone was a little panicked, now wondering what their enemies were up to, not knowing that the true reason behind the enemy's enemy's metal enhancement was solely due to the Holy Core in Morgany and the Holy Feather in Adonis.

"Your Majesty, we must fight back!"

"Yes, yes your Majesty! Now is a good time to strike!"

Seeing how passionate everyone was, Landon chuckled, happy they too thought the same as him.

The enemy will not get the news of their defeat anytime soon because whether they like it or not, the spies in Adonis would have to first leave the cities they are, head to Coastal cities were their ships are, hope on the ships, sail out, reach Morgany, move on horseback to the Capital city before the news can reach the ears of all 3 Morn Emperors.

In short, it would take at least another 9 months before the enemy gets the news and starts preparing for

counter attacking sometime in October or November.

But who will give them the chance to counterattack?

Who were they? Baymard!

They had flying aircrafts, fast mobile vehicles and ships that sailed incredibly fast in these dark times.

So of course they would make their move long before the enemy gets news.

It's estimated that by October earliest is when the enemy can get any news. So why not attack sometime in

May?

That's right.

It was now February, and Landon felt he should give the soldiers time to rest before heading out on a

full-scale war against. Morgany.

When Landon said FULL-SCALE, he meant full-scale.

All 3 Empires would get attacked at once, and Raymard can't do it alone.

Why? Because no matter how he looks at it, Baymard's population, despite the technology, couldn't defeat

Morgany's grand size.

That's why this time, he will ask all UN forces to join in.

He'll send letters to the monarchs, so they can finally fight Morgany, as well as Adonis and nip this whole thing

in the butt.

All these people have to do is ready the soldiers and Baymard will be in charge of picking them up and heading

straight for war.

All forces need time to get ready for battle.

It would also be a good time for them to test their newly developed arm crossbow weapons.

That's right, the Soma empire had invented the crossbow which was the first automatic firing now in the

world.

No longer would one have to develop enough raw strength to string a bow. Just place the arrows and it gets shot instantly after you press the handle.

In the empire of Arcadina right here in Pyno, they also developed what was called a Wrist Crossbow.

Amazing!

Landon swore he hadn't pit, any technologies that don't exist yet into Baymardian games or movies.

So it was incredible that they could develop it, even if they only made a crude design.

Yes, in Assassin's Creed and many games back on Earth, one can see devices around the wrist of certain game

characters.

The device could shoot smaller arrows from their wrists. This was the wrist crossbow.

One could wear it on their wrists as a very long wrist to elbow bracket.

And when it was time for action, a single click would spread the bow's wings from the sides.

Know that within the bracket were 10 slots where small arrows could fit.

Think of it like bullet spaces, only for these smaller sized arrows.

Because of the agreed technology share between all UN empires, all empires also began researching and

creating their own Crossbows and wrist crossbows after the information was made available in the UN

libraries within Baymard.

Of course, the empire that creates technology would get a particular token reward, granting special perks on certain aspects for the next 23 years.

It was because of this that many empires didn't feel they lost anything by sharing their findings.

What's more, don't they also benefit from other empires when technology is shared?

Think of the siege weapon technologies they got when they weren't the ones who developed it.

All in all, it was a win-win situation for everyone.

...

"May 25th... We and our Allies will attack Morgany and Adonis!"

Landon's words made many brim excitedly.

It was better to deal with the enemies fast than to allow them to keep developing and growing

Who knows if during their next attack, Baymard's I'll lose thoroughly? Who knows if their metal enhancement.

technology has already upgraded even more during this time?

"Your Majesty, I agree!"

"Yes, your majesty! We will all prepare for war!!"

Looking at their excited faces, Landon knew they had to give it their all this time around.

Not just them, but their allies too. Landon also felt that leaving the War for May was great, seeing as he had too much to do right now.

The most important thing is that he must reach the Moon in early May before going out for War.

Again, another thing made him extremely happy.

After finalizing his plans for war with others, Landon headed back to his office in District C, closed the doors

and warped into his space.

Voom!

He was now standing in a pile of scrunched paper, but didn't care.

Swinging his way out of the paper, he finally reached the desk at the far end that had several sheets of spread

out paper pinned to the table by a sharp dagger.

Well, this way, he doesn't lose sight of his work.

Bahahahahahhaja-

Landon held the documents and was now laughing from mar to molar like an insane person.

"I did it.. I did it.. I created an Internet and communication Tesseract!"

(^u^)
