Odyssey To Dominion

The expedition team of 5 panzers cut through the forest with ease, often encountering golems or automata on patrol or stationed there. After travelling for 20 kilometers, they come to a stop.

Nytri takes a radio and speaks into it, "Alright everyone, stay sharp. After here, we'll be out of the green zone. All units are to return fire to anything that attacks us." A combine response come through, "Yes sir!" she starts the panzer and drives as the other 4 follows behind her in a straight line.

A clone opens the hatch on the panzer and mounts the turret there, the same happens to the other 4. Rocker launchers and cannons appear from the sides and front of the panzers as they drive through the forest.

After 30 minutes of peaceful cruise, they picked something up. "Look alive everyone, boogie entering firing range." The panzers readied the weapons. In a few minutes a rhinoceros monster appears before them, this one had feathers and 2 horn with 6 limbs. "Bicorns approaching!"

The Bicorns aim at the panzers and charges at them. Nytri pushes a button making spikes appear around the panzer and 4 lances appear before the panzer. The turrets fire at the monster then Nytri steps on it as the panzer charges at the monster. The 2 clashes as the monsters are impaled and stuck to the lance, the turrets rip it to shreds.

"Level up, nice." Alarm blares in the panzer. "There's more coming, offensive positions. We're charging out of here." The panzers speed on as the turrets fires ahead of them. In the distance is a herd of them as about 50 of them could be seen rampaging towards them. "Time for the cannons." She pushes a button as the cannons fire up, they aim and fire metal balls that explode on impact. The rockets fires into the air and pierces the monsters before exploding, the turrets then shots the monsters. They speed up as the lance impales the monsters and run some of them over, this went on for an hour before they were free of pursuers.

"Coast is clear, we're approaching the watering source in 5 minutes." Nytri notifies them as she continues ahead of them. The panzers have a few scratches but nothing too severe, though feathers are stuck on some of them.

They see the watering source ahead of them, the place is like a lake about 5 kilometers and strangely the trees get smaller the closer they get to the place. The arrive by the lake and observes the place, the trees are now similar to ones on earth in terms of size but the lake is blood red. "How's there a lake of blood here?"

Clone2 replies as she gets up from her seat, "There seems to be tracks around the lake. That means the monsters came to drink from here before it became like this."

Nytri nods as she observes through the screens in the panzer. "Yeah, let's check it out. Automata take control of the panzers in case we get attacked."

Nytri gets up from her seat as an automaton sits down. The back of the panzer opens like a shutter as they get down from the panzer holding bows and swords. "Secure the perimeter, make sure there's nothing that can harm us." The rest of the automata arms themselves and patrols the place as the golems stand still in a square formation.

Nytri and the clones move around the place setting up a table with a computer and a satellite dish, they turn it on as the computer checks for anything in the lake. "*Sighs* There's no living thing in the lake except a giant object which looks like a head."

Clone6 walks over, "What died?"

Nytri presses buttons on the computer as it starts to scan the area around them. "No clue, but if we're gonna fix this we need to remove the head. About time we went for swimming."

Clone3 shudders, "Swimming in a lake of blood, nothing strange about that."

The clones activate ARMORED SHELL and walks to the edge of the lake, Nytri turns around to the remaining party. "You're on guard duty." She turns and activates ARMORED SHELL and joins the clones. They walk into the lake as they start to dive into it. They struggle to dive as they resurface, Nytri looks at the other. "Using our hands isn't going to help, we need actual fish parts to reach the bottom. We molded Armored shell to cover our wings, right? I think we can use it to make flippers."

The clones nod as one affirms, "Yeah, we can also make blades at our feet to speed us up." They all agreed and started to change.

They activate their wings as it gets covered up and looks more like flippers than wings. Their feet also have rotating blades there. "One more time." They all dive into the lake, this time with little resistance. They moved quickly till they reach the bottom which is about 1.3kilometers deep, they see the head and start to observe it before swimming back up to the surface for air. The swim to shore as they lie on the ground for a bit.

Nytri breathes heavily, "Damn *Breathes*, what a big head"

Clone2 sits up and looks at the lake, "How the heck are we going to remove it?"

Clone4, "We've got webs, don't we." They all smile and rest a bit.

After 20 minutes of resting, Nytri gets up and the clones follow. "Time for the hardest net ever made." They get to work and start making a net. They work on it till the sun came down and climbs the sky again. The sun doesn't move across the sky.

When the sun is high, they finished. Nytri holds her waist with a satisfied smile, "Alright time to fish a head." The clones stare at Nytri, "What?"

Clone4 tilts her head, "You do realize we're pulling it out not fishing, right?"

Nytri shrugs, "It's the same idea." They dive into the lake to the head. They start to cover it with the web and try to push the head into it. They manage to do it after several pushes then they swim to the surface.

Nytri reaches the surface, "Now, PULL!" the golems start to pull the web as the clones join them. The automata who aren't on guard duty join as they slowly pull the web.

After nearly an hour, they finally see the head on the surface of the lake. "Crap this is bigger than I thought." Part of the head was buried so when they pulled it out, it could reach 60 meters. "What kind of monster was it before it got like this?" the pull the head to land as they examine it.

Clone7 gives a crazy idea, "Wanna make an undead out of it?" they all freeze, then they grin. All of the clones and the real Nytri's eyes dim a little at that thought.

"APPRAISAL" Nytri appraises the head.

[INFORMATION MAGIC DISPLAY LEVEL 6

TARGET: Head.

ORIGIN: Target seems to have been killed in a battle, time of battle dates back to 67,000 years back.

Nytri(Clone1): So this thing died 67,000 years ago, it's killer is probably dead too.

NOTICE: Negative. *The clones are shocked* The head seems to have lived for 1,347,000 years or even longer.

Nytri: Aww shit. Can I turn it into an undead?

NOTICE: Negative, its size is interfering.

Nytri: So, if I chop it into pieces, I can make it an undead?

NOTICE: ...…Affirmative.

Nytri: Sweet.

END]

Nytri turns to her group, "Alright, let's start chopping some head. We'll bring our undead army back into the fray." Nytri takes a sword which behaves like a chainsaw. The golems and the clones get to work chopping the head into pieces making over 40 pieces.

They arrange the pieces of flesh ahead of the clones as Clone7 steps up. "I'll convert this body into EP to activate the skill, hopefully using all my EP will make some killer undead."

Clone7 steps up before the rotting flesh before her, activating RAISE DEAD. "Arise my minions, come to life and serve your master." EP explodes from her but it doesn't notify the monsters around them, rather all the EP is focused into the flesh. The flesh twitches it starts to move making limbs and parts. "My EP is almost out. ENERGY GENERATION." This skill allows her to generate EP in her body and amplify it up to 10 times. The huge amount of EP infuses into the flesh as it creates undead.

Nytri by the side stretches her hands towards the undead being formed, blue spheres come out of her hands as it enters the undead. Each sphere is the personality of the precious undead army she had.

Standing before her are 27 undead as the rest of the flesh enhances the 27 undead making them stronger. Clone7 turns to dust to complete the undead creation. Nytri smiles at them as the undead bow before her saying. "My liege, we serve and obey." Nytri is elated, she appraises them as a screen appears before her, she reads it, she jumps in shock. "WHAT THE HECK?!".
