"Good Afternoon General, How's the night?" Mikhail said with a straight face.
Lance got shocked with the disappearance of Mikhail's random Russian word in the conversation, "ты в порядке, товарищ?" He asked while shaking his body violently.
"Что за черт? Генерал, остановись, я не сумасшедший и я в порядке. General, I'm ok and well. What is wrong with you?" Mikhail replied in Russian, and his Slavic accent had returned.
"I was worried that you have turned into Americans," Lance said as he took a very deep breath.
"Americans? What are you talking about? Even If I were American, I'm still what I am. Russian or Americans, either way, Mikhail is still Mikhail, and I'm still I am," Mikhail said to prove his point.
"What?" Lance asked shockingly.
"You're still in the era of the cold war, closed-minded, aren't you, General? See, the fact that we are working together now has eliminated our differences both as a race and as a nation. It doesn't matter even if I have to use American equipment because Americans also don't mind using Russian equipment. General, we are a unity in diversity. Everyone fills each other flaws," Mikhail said to Lance as he waved around his HK416.
He wasn't wrong though, Lance's AK-47 had been replaced into an HK416 as well. A squadron of F-15E flew right above his head.
"What are those Eagles doing here?" Lance asked Mikhail.
"The Eagles? They are on patrol, I think, that was quite a ruckus last night, you know?" Mikhail said.
"Well, have you gathered all of the clothes that the soldiers that were stationed here wore?" Lance asked him.
"Yes we have, why did you ask? We thought it will be a good idea to wear that on the mainland if you send us there," Mikhail said.
"Well, Capitan, you're a promotion material, you know?" Lance said to the Captain.
"Thank you, sir," Mikhail said as Lance left him to operate the radio again.
He got out of the fortress, and d.a.m.n, what a fortification. The soldiers were making a barricade using the barbed wire and dug out a trench for them. The hole in the fort wall had been patched, and a reinforced concrete road had been built between the Fort and the AFB. They were using the remnants of the battles.h.i.+p for target practice for the Carl Gustav M4 operators. Lance didn't expect the civilization around him became so advanced. If the Lance that occupied this body were the old Lance, he would also be surprised. The island was literally turning into a small city.
The spy planes had already flown around the base to scan for a structure. Lance had not to get the recon report yet, but he will get it soon, and he will get along with the first recon battalion since his army has expanded a lot. Brigadier General Kochler had already been promoted to be a Lieutenant General by now. He should have another general as his adjutant right now.
A Blackhawk helicopter was parked near the fort. Lance walked to the helicopter, which a soldier had already piloted on it. Lance put the strap on his belt, and he sat down at the door of the helicopter. The pilot asked him, "Sir, where do you want to go?"
"To the Heathen base please," he said as the pilot flipped a few k.n.o.bs, and the rotor of the helicopter started to spin. The helicopter took off and gained some alt.i.tudes. The helicopter flew above the road that was connecting between the Heathen base and the fort. The breeze of wind hit Lance's face and blew his hair.
He saw the animal running around in the forest surrounding the road, looks fun. The base have aircraft took off from the runway, including the big one since the airbase has expanded a lot. Now, the airbase has more than twenty flying squadrons. The airbase was very busy indeed.
The hangar was full of planes: F-22A, F-15C, F-15E, F/18F, F/18E, 10, B-52, B-1, B-2, AC-130, E-3, KC-135, U-2, and many other NATO planes. The planes were parked neatly on their perspective hangar, but some of the experimental planes like the SR-71 were parked outside of the hangar.
Sadly, the trip had to come to an end once the helicopter landed on a helipad near the hangar. Though Lance wanted some rest, he simply can't because another recon report had come in the form of a white cla.s.sified file. A Major General was the one that gave it to him, which was unusual.
The report was showing him the location of all of the landmarks on the island. As it turned out that the island formerly was a city that was completely wiped out by the dungeon on the island, but since lance had bombed the dungeon out of existence, the island was relatively safe again. The report suggested that the landmark was an abandoned village, an abandoned port, and an abandoned mine.

'System, what do you mean by this? Do you mean that I don't have to visit the structure? So why don't you gave me the discovery sooner when I invade that fort?'
[System decided that soviet era picture wasn't good enough for the discovery status since the picture was very blur]
'Gee, what a great argument, system accept rewards.'
[System can't display user rewards since the user didn't have any naval base yet]
'Another mission, then? Yup, I want to do it the easy way this time.'
The Major general shook his general, who was daydreaming, "General, Are you ok?"
"I'm ok Major, " Lance said as he retrieved the files and opened it at the section, which gave the position of the abandoned port and showed it to the Major General. "General, do you know what is this?"
"This is an abandoned port sir, do you have any plan with it, sir?" The general asked lance with an enthusiastic tone. "I can a.s.semble a battalion to occupy it," the general suggested and further brightened Lance's face.
[Warning, a boss-type creature spotted on the abandoned port]
"I agree with you, General, a.s.sembly the squadron, and I will join in the attack too. I will be with the F/18E squadron," Lance said to his subordinate.
"Ok, sir, I agree with that," Lance said as he walked away from the general into the hangar. In the hangar, there were a lot of fighter jets. One of them was his plane, which was an F/18E "Super Hornet." Not much can be told except that the aircraft was one of the carrier-capable fighter jets that were very versatile for any mission. Not that Lance didn't want to choose an F-15E, which carried a heavier weapon load, but he wanted to land on the CVN-78 once it got summoned simply.
He ran to the nearest changing room and wore his flight suit. He wore the G-suit and left his HK416 and his Rig in the locker. He brought the Royal clothes that had already been washed from the blood and stains from the pirate's raid back in the day. He put it into his cargo pod underneath the F/18E fighter jet.
He knew that the mainland was about 2000 kilometers from the island since the speed of a sailing speed is about 4 knots because of the bad weather, and it took about three weeks to reach the island. However, with a modern s.h.i.+p, it will only take three days at most, which were quite a difference, but with any jet fighter, the distance can be covered in only 30 minutes if the option of mid-air refueling is available since the afterburner was thirsty of fuel.
Lance finished packing up his stuff and climbed to the jet, and closed the canopy. He began the engine starting procedure. He taxied his plane to the runway and request for taking off.
He pushed the throttle upwards and turned on the afterburner of the F/18E and left the airs.p.a.ce of the AFB. His job with his squadron was to provide support for the infantry underneath him.
He brought 2 AGM-65 Maverick and 2 AGM-130 G missiles. Both of them are capable of destroying a tank, and surely a boss creature wouldn't be a problem.
The flight wasn't long because of the abandoned port only fifth kilometers away. Once they arrived, they see what the boss creature is; a Kraken.
"General, Alpha squadron at your service," the flight commander said to Lance.
"Roger that, thank you alpha two," Lance replied as they flew in Arrow formation.

The alpha squadron dived down towards the sleeping Kraken. They fired their ATGM and intentionally missed the Kraken.
The Kraken woke up and became enraged by the annoying fighter Jets.
Alpha 1: "Alpha 2, bring the creature to the sea."
Alpha 2: "Alpha 2 copy."
The Kraken got baited into the sea. Now, there was not worry about destroying the Naval port since the Kraken had already gone to the sea.
The squadron launched their full salvo of G missiles and blasted the Kraken to the oblivion and beyond. The octopus turned into a b.l.o.o.d.y lump of meat, and the sea had turned red.
Alpha 3: "Mission completed, Kraken is destroyed."
Alpha 4: "Flight leader, RTB?"
Alpha 2: "I do not know, for now, General?"
Alpha 1: "Mission success and completed. Alpha squadron, you may return to the base. I got another business I need to take care of."
Alpha 2: "Sure thing, general. Alpha squadron RTB."
The other F/18E left the formation leaving only Lance and his plane on the formation. Lance had fuel for another 8 hours of flying.
[Batalion for the invasion of the abandoned Naval port have been aborted. User may build a naval base on the abandoned port, and the quest rewards Will are automatically added]
[YES/NO]
Lance who was checking on his flight equipment noticed it and leaned back at his chair. 'yes, build it.'
