Will of chaos
1251 Cap 1249: The insect war begins part 3
Pov Haku's (???):
It's only been a few weeks since I woke up, I couldn't imagine from the things mother told about me, it seems like my incompetence last time was disastrous.
Fortunately, the mother's research that did not work out in the past in our universe was more positive with the resources found in this universe.
"How's the power source implementation going?" (I)
"The implementation is failing, there seems to be something wrong with the power fluctuations." (Assistant A)
"Check if there is something interfering outside the Planet, I don't believe that our plans to change the flow of energy are wrong, it must be some external influence." (I)
"Ma'am, these are the data on the organism's growth..." (Assistant B)
"Don't call it that, my brother was a volunteer, call him by his name." (I)
"Yes, Mr. Peter seems to be following the expected growth patterns, his total mass has already reached the last continent, but the integration is facing resistance, he is unable to leave the lower region." (Assistant B)
"The planets in this universe generate unique energy creatures that work as antibodies to the planet, they call it world spirit or something..." (I)
Sigh
"Unfortunately only the mother managed to get rid of one of these things and even she doesn't know how she did it, so just ignore it for now, as long as Peter takes the planet for himself this thing won't matter, and will hopefully disappear." (I)
"This appears to be interfering with the progress of the next phase." (Assistant B)
"Was the process interrupted?" (I)
"According to our latest information, no." (Assistant B)
"But the delay will be 7 times the estimated time." (Assistant B)
"So just keep going, take this time to gather more detailed information, these are just initial tests and some margin of error was expected, collect as much information as possible." (I)
"Yes ma'am Haku." (Assistant B)
I was walking through the caves heading to my room, a group of Assistants around me as I manage this incredible project, luckily the problems are not many and nothing is blocking the progress of the project.
I look at the white cave I'm passing through, the shape and texture of the bones seem to be progressing well, unfortunately, there are no veins around to measure the blood flow.
"(Everything is going well, that worries me.)" (I)
While I was lost in certain thoughts, an assistant with wings on his back comes flying through the tunnel to where I was, the other assistants make room while the newcomer kneels unnecessarily, the recruits from this universe are too formal with hierarchical figures superiors, this kind of thing is an inconvenience within a research group like ours, it's just not efficient to maintain useless formalities.
"My lady, I bring urgent news, one of the Bug Empresses has reported a sighting of a creature hiding outside of the star system we are currently in." (Assistant C)
"Great news, I was getting worried they wouldn't show themselves." (I)
"Ma'am, should we send all our forces? It could just be one of the Monsters in this universe, many of them travel the stars." (Assistant A)
"That possibility exists, but the greater probability is that they are enemies, the Dragons, Elves and the group I lost against in the past wouldn't lose the movement of as many Bugs as we did here, so it must be one of them." (I)
"Observe his movements and initiate the surveillance system, I'm going to my office to monitor and give orders depending on the situation." (I)
I run to my office, and with a reading crystal in my hands I start to write down some things before an eye opens a hole in the wall creating a hologram, I use magic in my hands to make the various images pass through.
"What the hell is this!? What creature is that? Those damn recordings using Familiars don't have settings to measure scales." (I)
"It's clearly moving like a creature, but it appears to be made from part of a planet, how does water stay still?" (I)
"That thing might not be made of flesh, but if I got my hands on that body it would be an excellent study to inspect how that thing moves or if it's alive... it could be a Golem, there's that possibility..." (I)
As tens of minutes passed, I went from seeing one Familiar to another, I had to bring other eyes that emerge from the wall to keep more than one screen working at the same time.
The Swarm of insects that I kept on guard outside the planet sharing the surroundings were just numbers, but their real function was to be the first line of defense, with so many eyes it would be easy to find any approaching enemy while even in their deaths they were still useful as sacrifices.
But the speed with which the Swarm was being destroyed was worrying, clearly, these enemies were preserving their real strength, a monster of that size wouldn't bring back 10 enemies.
I was already surprised when they discovered the second line of defense, the Poison Worlds trap, I thought I had disguised them well, but they were still noticed and that creature that looked like part of a planet took them somehow.
"(It must be some form of spatial isolation or teleportation.)" (I)
What caught my attention were the precise attacks made against the Insect Command Symbols, we used the blood and flesh of an Insect Empress to perfect dozens of Insect Queens of various types, transforming it into an object capable of connecting with those of the same type in a colossal area, each of them had protective spells and had really strong guards protecting them.
The attacks with great precision destroyed 49 out of 57 of them, many were destroyed at the same time, this attack came from a blind spot or there must be hidden enemies, I was only sure about the hidden enemies when that Dragon appeared out of nowhere, clearly there must be more Enemies waiting.
"By destroying the node present in these 49 points the construction of the mutant specimen was reduced, I have to reduce the requirements and time for its creation, and we also lost control after its creation, fortunately, I insisted on using one of ours for this test, even outside of control was still loyal." (I)
"But that tree..." (I)
It seems that all external lines of defense have been removed, they haven't finished off all the insects yet, but it doesn't matter, it has been proven that even using flesh strengthening is not enough against them.
"Madam, it seems that some of the Insect Empresses want to intervene in the battle above." (Assistant A)
Tell her to shut up and strengthen the army, use the strengthening compound V2, even in its experimental state it is still stronger than the old version." (I)
"I will do it now." (Assistant A)
I watch him walk away as I analyze the base being built, unfortunately, I can't be sure without taking a closer look as these Familiars don't have the same capabilities as a real computer.
"That tree is exactly in the center of that barrier, even though construction is being done around the tree, it seems like the distortion I see in the space near the tree makes sense... a natural energy collector..." (I)
"They are setting up an operations base within our territory, too close." (I)
I didn't fear any enemies, they can delay our progress on certain things, but they are also essential for field testing.
What I really feared were hidden enemies, the worst attack is always the one you can't see, that's why I'm so happy, even though they hide their forces, their way of attacking is head on, they've also given me clues about their companions hiding using space magic.
"I'm ready, but they should take days, building and reinforcing a solid base to be used like that will take days even with magic." (I)
"I intend to enjoy every second of these." (I)
-----------------
Pov Silvia's:
I was inside our base, Hela was still strengthening the defenses along with Irina and Layla while the rest of us were discussing next steps.
"So they managed to alter the flow of raw power between the worlds." (Magnus)
"Now I understand why the Saint of Life decided to interfere." (Vanessa)
"I can't sense the World Trees, it should be a constant presence as their powers serve to receive that power and regulate it as it integrates with the planet." (I)
"But it seems they injected a Soul into the raw energy flow, it was the creature that you destroyed Hades." (I)
"What should we do now, their preparation outside the planet was much more than we previously thought and we don't even know what we will face inside the planet." (Hades)
"It doesn't matter, we are not alone this time, Zadiris should arrive by tomorrow according to his message." (I)
"Clearly the strength of the Apostles of Truth is greater than we expected, what do you think of them, Haku?" (I)
"From what I know, they are creative and won't do anything without planning ahead, what we face today won't be everything." (Haku)
"But luckily it looks like we'll have company soon." (Haku)
"Dragons must..." (I)
"She's not talking about the Dragons, the Master seems to be about to come out of his training, we can sense that he's fine, which means he should be back soon." (Hades)
"But the door is still on the Life Saint's Familiar's back, which means it's in his Territory." (Irius)
"Don't worry about these two here, we won't have any problems." (Natasha)
Natasha points to Alice and Karina in the corner, it seems like she knows something that we don't.
