บท 144: 144 Harvest

Arc woke up after sleeping for about 6 hours, 6 hours was enough for him to rest his mind and body.

"Welcome Back Boss!" Eve greeted him.

"Yeah, that's a good rest let me clean up a little." Said Arc.

After taking a bath a eating some food, He asks Eve about Status Report.

Boss take a look at this, Eve shows him the dead body of Ganesh it's about 5 meters with a huge tusk on both side of its mouth the tusk is about a meter long and about 8 inches in diameter, and it's glowing.

"Boss after some analysis we have found out that the tusk is made of pure energy crystals, a single tusk is enough to power a small town for 3 months, and what's more its bone is made of the same materials." Said Eve.

"Is that?"

"Yes Boss, I'm 100 percent sure that's the real reason for the war."

"I see, can we use it?"

"Indeed, we can boss by combining it with our tech we can create an even more powerful weapon specifically an energy base weapon, but the most effective way to use it is by combining it with any energy base substance. We have learned that by introducing it to liquid energy it greatly increases the purity of the energy and increasing its energy output, it has many applications. But for us, it's better if we use it as an energy source for our weapons." Said Eve.

"Sigh, I don't like harvesting another intelligent being for resource, but if they come to us to fight then it's their fault." Said Arc.

"Boss, we also found out that many of the Ganesh have the same DNA sequence." Said Eve.

"They are clones?" Said Arc in surprise.

"Most likely they are not born naturally but manufactured, at least that's what we learned from their DNA," said Eve.

Arc thinks of something and immediately ask Nine.

"Nine are they created by tools from the Sovereign Empire?"

Nine… "Yes!"

"Holy Shit" no wonder they are fearless... This is going to be troublesome." Said Arc.

"Eve how many have we harvested?" More than 200 thousand Tusks. And...

"No need to say it, it's gross. Do whatever must be done." Said Arc frowning.

"Yes, boss." Said Eve.

"With the Tusks, the integration of mother drones and Specter will much more efficient, and the effect would increase by at least 35%," said Eve.

"That much? Wow, no wonder GFA is willing to spend a huge amount of resources to acquire it."

But Arc is worried if Ganesh is made by Tools of Sovereign Empire then defeating it won't be that easy, "I'm afraid that the one we are fighting at the moment is nothing but a test subject and rejects and the real Ganesh is still out there waiting for the right time." Said Arc in his mind.

...

6 hours ago In GFA HQ.

"Sir we have spotted a large armada of Ganesh entered this sector."

"Send some scouts we need to figure out where are they going."

"We already sent several scouts but that sector is isolated because of the natural jamming coming from some Asteroids."

"Forward this report to the top have them decide what to do next." Said the Officer.

"Right away sir."

"Sir! We just got news! Look." A video recording of the Ganesh Armada, when they saw it they were stunned.

"What the hell!" Around 50 huge Ganesh ships of all size can be seen but many of them are on the brink of collapse it's easy to tell they just got out of battle. And from the looks of it, they are running away as they are moving at full speed without repairing first.

"Just what kind of battle they went through? And who did they fight with?" Said the Officer.

"Sir judging by the remains of their fleet they lost about 60-70 percent of their ships. In just about 2 hours what kind of power is capable of that?"

"A pack of Space Beast! Who knows! Send more scouts inside we need to find out where or who are they fighting with. And if we're lucky we might find the remains of the battlefield and have a great harvest." But before that send this video to the top. Said the officer.

"Yes, sir."

As the GFA is scrambling and forming a fleet to explore and find the battlefield, Arc was sleeping peacefully.

Scout ship detected. The mother drones transmitted to Eve.

"Destroy them all," said Eve.

"No one should disturb Boss from his sleep." Said Eve to the mother Drone.

"The mother drone comply and send a group of Combat drones to deal with scouts."

"It has been 4 hours what happen to the scouts?" Said the officer.

"The asteroid field is like a black hole it devoured all the scouts they sent."

"Sir that's, that's a hundred scouts so far, should we continue to send them?"

Send them to where? Hell? No! Stop sending scouts... Send this report to Admiral Hansley, he was the one assigned to the operation on locating the battlefield. Said the officer.

"Yes, sir."

"Retrieval complete" the mother drone transmitted.

Start building combat drones stop everything else continue to do so until combat drones reach 10 million. Said Eve.

"Affirmative"

As for Arc, he was still sleeping like a baby.

"Admiral we have received reports..."

Admiral… "Hmm, it looks like this won't be easy."

"Connect me to commander Markos."

"Admiral Hansley... I have received the report. And we decided to continue with the mission. It's just too good to pass it without trying, but if it's become too dangerous you can decide on what to do. Good luck Admiral" Said, commander Markos.

"Thank you, Commander."

"The mission is a go," said Admiral Hansley.

"Mission is a go, I repeat mission is a go… Begin entering the asteroid field."

Hansley watch as his fleet entered the Asteroid field.

And that's the last Anyone sees Admiral Hansley and his fleet. And only Eve and the mother drones are witnesses to their final moments.

And Arc? He was sleeping like a log.
