章 27: Destruction of the Solar Cult (3)
Even though he knew that the military forces of the Solar Cult wouldn't be advanced enough to threaten something that was for a long time considered pinnacle Battle Droids of the Type 3 civilization in the form of ABD-Spectre MK Battle Droids, he still anticipated some losses.
In the end, the numerical odds against the Battle Droids were too huge and there were only four of the Spider Bastion Battle Droids that walked through the battlefield like unhindered juggernauts without any equal.
Yet, hearing that there were no losses among the Battle Droids increased his mood because every single destroyed Droids meant heavy losses. If the Droids were destroyed entirely, then it was an entire loss.
If only partially, then he could still have them reconstructed by the Red Queen back in the obscures by the Worker and Construction droids, that were working day and night, maintaining the Obscurus or carrying out some minor modifications.
Meanwhile, the Battle Droid "Army" was wreaking havoc above the ground; Arcutrus was cutting his way to the place where his walking treasuries were walking.
Another reason he wanted to have a talk with the leaders of the Solar Cult before they lost their heads was to get the codes for their Vaultbank Accounts.
The organization's size of the Solar Cult should have a good number of Universal Credits stashes somewhere. And even though the organization preached hatred for everything that didn't originate in the Helios Star System, they still utilized the services of the Cosmic Vaultbank.
There was no way that someone could hack into the accounts of the Cosmic Vaultbank; not even the most advanced Artificial Intelligences in the known Universe could achieve such a feat, so he needed to go through the good old way to get it out from them.
As he cut down another of the members of the Solar Guard, he was also conversing with the Red Queen Alice. With his heightened intelligence and enhancements brought by the Neural Extranet Terminal Gene Implants, he could easily focus on several things at the same time.
'Are you sure your idea would work?'
He asked while, at the same time, dodging to the right and swinging his power sword at the head of one of the Solar Guards, who didn't have enough time to react and was instantly killed in one hit.
[Yes. This specifically made a version of the Nanobots would be inserted into their bodies through your Neural Extranet Terminal Gene Implants and I would be able to overwrite their consciousness and take control of their mind and split the codes to their Cosmic Vaultbank Accounts or just transfer the money.]
If the Red Queen was telling him that it would work, then he would give the method the benefit of the doubt. It was worthwhile to try because he could possibly obtain several hundreds of thousands of Universal Credits if he was lucky.
That would be a grand boon to his ambition because he could expand his army of droids, and buy better equipment and better resources for Red Queen to experiment with.
If he completed this mission and obtained the EsPsion Crystal and awakened as Psyker, he would need a tremendous amount of money for resources to cultivate as Pskyer, because it seemed that advancing the Psyker Ranks was extremely costly.
'The number of these guys is getting less... your doing?'
When he killed the twentieth or twentieth-second Solar Guard, Arcturus noticed that the number of enemies within the premises was getting lower and lower for whatever reason it was.
[Yes. I managed to activate some of the traps installed in this place and kill fifty-seven of the Solar Guards. On the side effect, parts of the headquarters have collapsed due to that and it is possible that the stability of the entire underground building has been destabilized.]
Hearing that made him frown and smile at the same time.
'Lovely...'
He managed to say, as he was close to arriving at the vault-room, which served as the panic room in case an emergency was declared within the territory of the Solar Cult.
The higher-ups went on it smartly because they managed to build the panic room in a hidden part of the complex, and without precise navigation or knowledge of the entire headquarters, it was virtually impossible to find.
'Unlock the door.'
He commanded the Red Queen, who had long ago taken control of the security systems of the underground complex, as he stood in front of the huge steel vault doors for some time.
When he thought that the entire place could crash at any time, he decided to end this entire endeavor as soon as possible. With the battle droids raging above, it would soon enough end, and they would start clearing out the remnants of resistance.
Just as he was thinking about the situation above, the doors started slowly opening, and Arcturus instantly ran to the side because the Solar Guards inside started shooting madly at anything that was in front of them.
'I can't even drop them there a few grenades I collected along the way...'
He needed the people inside the entire, or at least part of the people that were inside, intact.
Especially the leadership needed to be captured alive, so he could get all of their money...
This was indeed a unique opportunity that allowed him to collect far more wealth than just the rewards from completing the missions issued by the Star Mercenary Association and bounties on the Bounty Hunter Guild.
After several minutes the shooting stopped, as they probably ran out of ammunition or needed to reload their guns. Though he could hear that a few of them started advancing out from the vault-room in search for the intruder.
'One... two... three...'
When the first three of them approached the end of the corridor where he was hiding, he swung with his power sword, severing the head of the first of the Solar Guards, while sending a kick to the chest of the second one, breaking his ribs in an instant.
With one fast movement, Arcturus turned around and hacked his power sword into the last Solar Guard's stomach, effectively killing the man in one moment.
