General Vega stood in front of his soldiers. The situation was tense and grim. They just got the news about the massive invasion. It was predictably five times greater than the Zergs Invasion in Lebth Province. 

"My fellow comrades, we will be facing a danger five times greater than the Zergs invasion in Lebth. We are facing a threat of five Giant Zergs here. I know that we need more manpower, more soldier to fight. But as you know, Sweren is quite far from the capital city, and reinforcement might take a while to make it here."

"Thus, we do not have any choice but to fight and hold the invasion until the reinforcement arrived. My soldier, we may not make it alive, but believe me that we shall die protecting the future of humanity! We will die a hero! Repeat after me. We will die a hero!"

"WE WILL DIE A HERO!" 

"WE WILL DIE A HERO!"

"WE WILL DIE A HERO!"

General Vega prepared himself for the war as he heard his soldiers ready to die with him. He was sure that he wouldn't return alive after this war, knowing the massive amount of Zergs compared to his soldiers. 

[Pupa, what is the chance of me surviving here?]

[Pupa: Five percent.]

[Eh, that is relatively high. Am I just being pessimistic here? Or am I actually better than I expected?]

[Pupa: No, I was just trying to cheer you up. Honestly, your chance of survival is almost zero here. There is no way you can beat five Giant Zergs without the help of the reinforcement army, or at least three SSS soldiers with you.]

[… you can just lie, you know. To boost my confidence.]

[Pupa: No, I wake up and choose truth.]

[Ah, it's sad that I can't say goodbye proper to Altair. I'm not sure why his Breakmeter and Fatemeter stilled after he is having sex with Prince Rigel.]

[Pupa: Well, an Alpha and Omega that are fated pair can take the whole day or more to finish their game.]

[… how enviable.]

General Vega entered his mech and led the army to the gate of Sweren. The air was cold, and the sky was dark as well. It was a depressing day. But they were ready to die because humanity should survive no matter what.

It was the doctrine of the soldier.

After waiting for an hour, they felt the ground shake, like a small earthquake. The soldiers saw the army of Zergs marched towards them. The Zergs in this invasion were different from regular Zergs because they all had shining red carapace that protected their head. 

"On your position, soldier!" General Vega commanded. Everyone was ready with their mech suit or their weapon. General Vega counted the amount of Giant Zergs that was coming at them. 

[Four Giant Zergs, two Giant Cockroaches with spiked carapace, the other two are Giant Mantis and a giant moth.] 

General Vega counted the moment before the Zergs reached the middle of the battlefield, and then he shouted, "ATTACK!" 

The loud rambles from the soldiers who were charging against the Zergs filled the battlefield. Their boots stomped the ground as they fired the guns towards the Zergs. The regular soldiers fought against the Zergs army, while General Vega and the Lieutenants fought against the Giant Zergs. 

General Vega saw the Gaint Cockroaches, Mantis, and Moth. He concluded that the Mantis and moth were the most dangerous because the Giant Cockroaches didn't seem intelligent and didn't really have any attack other than charging with its spiked carapace. 

"I will handle the Giant Mantis first! All of you, try to hold other Giant Zergs. We can defeat them one by one!" General Vega commanded.

"YES, SIR!" 

General Vega dashed towards the Giant Mantis with his mech, the Man Drill. He already upgraded it by replacing the saw blade with a machine gun. He first used the drill to attack the Giant Mantis, who dodged skillfully.

General Vega continuously attacked the Giant Mantis, and he intentionally isolated himself with the Giant Mantis. He glanced at his Lieutenants, there were six Lieutenant Generals, and they handled other Giant Zergs skilfully. Although without his help, none of them would be able to defeat those Zergs.

The Giant Mantis was about to help its allies before General Vega fired his machine gun at the Mantis, and one bullet hit the Mantis' wing. The bullet made a hole instantly because General Vega already smeared all bullets with anti-Zergs that could burn them if they got hit by it, "I am your enemy!" 

The Giant Mantis opened its mouth and made a weird noise before attacking General Vega with its scythe arm. 

General Vega used his drill to fight against that Giant Mantis, and he pointed his machine gun at the Mantis, "I will not die so easily!"

General Vega fired at the Mantis' heart, in which the Mantis backed off and did the same thing just like what the previous Mantis did. It called upon its swarm of smaller mantises towards General Vega.

"HAH! Do you think I will fall for the trick twice?" General Vega pressed a command button inside his mech. The machine gun automatically fired thousands of needles in rapid succession. 

"RAAARGHH!" General Vega attacked the mantis wave with the giant needles. The needles shot at a faster rate, thus giving no chance for the human-sized mantises to dodge. The Giant Mantis shrieked when it saw its babies died quickly. It dashed towards General Vega with its scythe arm raised.

General Vega used his drill to hold the attack, but just when he was about to use his machine gun again, the Giant Mantis used its other scythe arm to cut the general in half.

General Vega retreated back skilfully and attacked the Giant Mantis with a machine gun again. The shriek of Giant Mantis roared across the battlefield when General Vega damaged its chest. 

The Giant Mantis was severely weakened, but it used its last resort and called another mantises army wave.

"Do you think you can beat me with the same trick over and over?! As expected, you Zergs are nothing but mindless monsters!" General Vega flew around with its mech to guide the wave of mantises to follow him.

And then, he hovered above the Giant Mantis who was severely weakened, the army of mantises were coming at him from below after he guided them, "This will end you!" 

General Vega pointed his machine gun to the Giant Mantis below and yelled, "Machine Gun Needle Shower!" 

General Vega used the machine gun full power to attack the mantises. The mantises were hailed and pinned down by hundreds of needles that penetrated their bodies. The Giant Mantis tried to dodge, but its legs were pinned down by the needles. The Giant Mantis shrieked and died after every inch of its body were penetrated by needles. 

General Vega was trying breathing steadily. His hand trembled because he used a lot of strength to control his mech, but he raised his machine gun and shouted at his soldiers, "THE GIANT MANTIS HAS BEEN DEFEATED! WE CAN DEFEAT THEM ALL TOGETHER!"

The soldiers saw hope after General Vega defeated the Giant Mantis. The Zergs started slowing down after seeing their second leader, the Giant Mantis, got killed. 

Now everything was on the Giant Moth. 

The Giant Moth roared at General Vega and flew towards him.
