Beneath the surface of the sea, numerous dark shadows darted about, locked in a fierce struggle.

Dozens of helicopters hovered in the sky.

As for the giant vessel that had set out initially, it was now ripped into pieces by these marine overlords beneath the sea, leaving behind only scattered flames that faintly revealed the massive figures darting beneath the surface.

...

Conversations buzzed over the radio.

"Commander, the energy fluctuations beneath the sea have exceeded the ninth level. We can't go any lower, the magnetic currents below will shred us."

"Drop the trackers and keep monitoring."

"Yes, Commander."

Hundreds of trackers were dropped from the helicopters overhead.

But in an instant, most were destroyed by the massive creatures below.

...

The command center at the nearby harbor base had been commandeered on short notice.

The dark-cloaked elder leading the group was none other than the Judges of the Nine Solar Wings.
