At a certain part of the Green Mist Sea stood a huge Atlantian military base. This base was erected at the base of the water, forming a sturdy foundation on the rock for all the military defense and offense weapons to be erected.

The military base spanned an area covering 2 kilometers. At the very forefront of the base stood the gate that led inside, every other part was covered by a faint blue shield that protected inside from all outside vices.

Besides the huge gate on opposite sides were mechanical weapons of magic and technology. The machine looked like a square-shaped robot but with hidden muzzles where pressurized water beams are shot out.

It had a mechanical energy core that powered it from the inside but it required magic machinations for the water to be precisely sucked in and transformed into pressurized magic water beams to be shot out.

These 2 were the very first defense structures of this Atlantian base. Behind the gate, along the passage inside that seemed like a long corridor were lined tons of defense structures. 

There were defense structures like thief traps that when an unauthorized person stepped on would erupt like the jaws of a Mammoth Crocodile, others were in the form of fire traps, thunder, a myriad of defense structures were placed along the passage that led inside.

Hovering outside the shield in the water, at the top of the base were dozens of huge machines that looked like submarines but in a more magical fashion.

Putting aside their main weapon armaments that could blow seamounts to smithereens, the stern-faced Atlantian soldiers that manned the outside ports attached to the sides were enough to scare any opportunistic enemy away.

These were just a few of the defense structures in this base protecting it from outside influence. With such manpower, no sea creature was foolish enough to steer close and court death.

This was but a mere fraction of the power that made Atlantis the current ruling power of Oceania, a mixture of technological and arcane knowledge.

At this moment, inside the main building in this military base, 2 high Atlantian officers were seated, speaking with each other while another stood listening to the 2 superiors respectfully.

After speaking for some minutes, one of the 2 high Atlantian officers finally raised his head to address the soldier standing before him.

"Staff Sergeant Barnes?"

"Yes Sir!" The soldier saluted respectfully.

"Good!" The Captain nodded in satisfaction. "I believe that you also heard of the announcement made by the Queen. A new Sea King has been born and the mission has been placed on us to identify and assassinate it".

"Are you up to this task?"

"Yes Sir!"

"Good!" The Captain picked up a printed book from the side with a cover and paper that was water-resistant, enabling it to be kept completely safe and intact.

"Take, this is your guide, mission details, and everything you need to know about your mission". As he spoke, he handed the book to the Staff Sergeant.

"Your mission location is B-129, a region close to an Ocean Volcano. I hope you will not disappoint the trust that we placed on you, Goodluck Sergeant".

"Thank you, Sir!" The Staff Sergeant saluted again but before he was able to leave, he was interrupted by the other Captain sitting there.

"Remember, when you get any clue, no matter how inconsequential about the appearance and use of the Water Transmutation skill, don\'t inform us, inform headquarters immediately".

"Yes Sir!" The Staff Sergeant stood at attention and saluted one last time before being allowed to leave. 

…

As soon as Staff Sergeant Barnes left the main building of the military base, still with a stern expression on his face, he turned and swam towards his fleet.

Unlike the mainstream military units of earth, Atlantis used a different military unit system. Atlantian military units were divided into a team, squad, company, battalion, fleet, brigade fleet, division fleet, and mega fleets.

Like on earth, 4 Atlantian soldiers make up a team. They are the smallest military unit and are mostly deployed for the lowest-graded missions.

Unlike on earth, a squad consisted of about 15-20 Atlantian soldiers. Squads are mostly deployed to wipe out small sea animal territories for construction and other small-scale missions.

Atlantian military companies consisted of 300 soldiers. This was the basic number of soldiers to crew an Atlantian warship, and companies were mostly deployed with at least a warship accompanying them.

For Atlantian battalions, like on earth was comprised of about a thousand Atlantian soldiers. They are allocated a maximum of 5 warships for missions which were one of the only differences between them and fleets.

Atlantian military companies and battalions were commanded by Sergeants. 

Unlike on earth, Atlantis was the ruling power of a boundless territory ranging 7 enormous Seas, it was a given that they found it a chore governing them all. This was more prominent with the existence of monsters like Sea Kings.

As soon as an Atlantian soldier got to the rank of Sergeant, it was assumed that he/she was strong enough to handle matters which warranted the heavy responsibilities being heaped on them.

To cover and properly oversee the whole territory, they had to let Sergeants command such large armies of soldiers.

And with the existence of the powerful weapons of technology, the work of soldiers was a lot easier and efficient but it was still plenty dangerous.

As a Staff Sergeant, Barnes was commanding a fleet. Just like a battalion, a fleet was comprised of faintly a thousand soldiers, the difference was that they had a much larger warship allocation of 20 than the 5 allocated to battalions.

Unlike battalions, fleets were mostly sent for deep-strike missions that lead them into dangerous uncharted territories of the Ocean which warranted their much larger warship allocation.

The next military units following that experience a sharp increase in requirements like manpower, special units, and the Commander rank. 

The brigade fleet comprises 10,000 soldiers, the division fleet comprises 30,000 soldiers while the mega fleets were a whole other unit on their own.

Mega fleets could only be commanded by Atlantian soldiers ranging from the Captain rank upwards, and the highest mega fleet unit could only be commanded by Queen Auralis herself.

It did not take Staff Sergeant Barnes much longer before he arrived at the location of his fleet and without hesitation, he faced and addressed them.
