"Mmm… H-hello…?"Esmond sleepy voice carried through his phone, earlier scrambling to find it as it started blaring aloud and disturbing his sleep.'It seems like I've disturbed your sleep, Mr Mars…'Like the wind was knocked out of him, Esmond sat right up, as the drowsiness left his body…"Not at all… *cough* just resting a little, after a long day… anyway, how may I be of service?"With no clue who was on the other end, other than someone important through Anton, Esmond did his best to sound authoritative and relaxed.But being caught off by his sleep made him ill equipped for the conversation, he soon fell back into rhythm and took hold of the conversation..'My… child, Anton, has given me your letter… as well as this simple phone…While I appreciate the two, it seems the wooden box is more of an important gift than the two.'<
֍ Sametime in Iraq ֍......"I am exhausted…Seriously… what the hell am I doing? I'm supposed to be relaxing in Thailand but no… still gotta trek through the goddamn desert!"Anton was stuck dealing with the misery of travelling alone on camel back through the Iraqi desert while trying to reach a hidden military compound.It was his last stop before leaving for Thailand and resting with that little time he had left to enjoy the luxuries his boss had bought the new recruits and their families before training started.His own wife and children were already there and enjoying themselves as he would hear from them during his evening calls every so often.It all made Anton jealous and furious that he had to be out in the desert alone on a camel, but he more thought about the rewards and benefits his work wou
"My Lord, if you wouldn't mind me asking a question?"One of the G.A.E humans called Janet, a red-haired beauty who could change her hair colour and length with just a simple thought as part of her specialised augmentation ability, wanted to ask Esmond more about the body coding and augmentation as she was curious about having some of her own."Sure, go ahead.""Could the body coding be made for specific organs…?What I mean is, currently I have gathered from my quick skim through the information that the coding affects the body as a whole.But why not affect the organ instead.If we wrote the coding for, let's say, improved eyesight, could be write it on the organ and increase the body coding any person could be subjected to."Esmond like their idea and even thought it worked better that the current method which meant it could give his soldiers a greater sense of power and strength.His snipers could be deadlier than an
'I knew it was too good to be true…Fuck my life'"Carter! Help me out here…"Esmond massaged his head as it throbbed in pain from his carelessness to not read labels properly.He cursed his luck for wasting credit just like that for something that would require time and patience, and he didn't have any to spare if he wanted to get started as soon as possible.Before he completely discarded what he brought from the system, Carter gave him a rundown of what he bought.Much to his delight and surprise…"What you bought, of course, isn't the complete Buklish Special Security Forces which would mean they could be summoned at the square, instead what you got is a way to create your own super soldiers with accelerated growth development.Plus, it's set with a universal list of genetic coding which means it can be used on the Zadrisian, humans and even the G.A.E.The pods make the operation seamless and ove
Esmond hadn't started using the Virtual Labs he'd bought from the system store along with the Virtual World which the labs were connected with and integrated into.Though the system had removed the side effects and problems associated with Virtual Labs, the Virtual World would allow Esmond to both test out his simulations with near identical environment to the external world.Now getting the System Knowledge Databank as a reward, he felt it would perfect for him to recreate some of the items and projects from his past lives.He might not need it now but uploading it to the S.K.D would definitely bring him some sort of benefit."Carter?!""Yo yo yo!What do you need fool?"Carter was twirling like a ballerina, trying his hand at dropping some hot verses before Esmond called for him.He'd come across rap music by chance while fascinated by the graceful movement of ballerinas, so he started performing them at the same time which E
"….Mmm…. hello…"Julias sleepy, croaky voice spoke into the mouthpiece of her housephone, waking her up before her alarm for work.She felt like cursing at whoever it was for ruining her sleep, however the voice from the otherside just happened to be the person she most dreaded and feared, having been tortured by their mind-numbing calls that broke down Julia at times."Goooooood Morning! JULIA! RISE AND SHINE!" Carter's voice came screaming through the phone awaking Julia right up and ruining what left of her sleepy mood and she knew instantly her day was going to be long and arduous."I've got some great news for you today!So, wake up and get dressed.Also bring your daughter along today.The office has been updated and prepared based on Esmonds thoughts.All the instructions have already been sent to your email, with that to do.Also, today is the first day for James Trudell, the new CEO so I hop
Oscar recounted the past of his people and planet while the other G.A.E humans were conversing and chatting freely with the Zadrisian people who'd come out to chat and act as guides for the newest members of the city and space.Carter was also busy gathering all the details and information of the new citizens of the Spatial Ark Land, so he couldn't stick around and continue to listen to Oscar's past for now."If I remember things correctly, the insectoid race was called Chisidin, a planet conquering nuisance that had 6 eyes, though you would only see 4 on their faces while the two remaining were hidden at the back of their heads.Those pricks were difficult to deal with honestly… especially the captains within their ranks could shapeshift, I think so… or was it Lord ranked…?"Esmond added his thoughts to the conversation, thinking back to a time in the past when he came across the 6-armed, 6 eyed creature which ripped apart assailants
Esmond moved according to Carter's instructions, however the cut through side streets and alleys to catch up to the small motorcade that surrounded the personal secretary.He circulated his body energy to increase his speed and movement which removed most of Esmonds need for a vehicle, but it got to a point that he needed more than his body to assault the security detail in the motorcade.Follow the roughly direction and estimations of Carter, Esmond eventually found the motorcade slowly approaching a backed-up region of traffic.It seemed like the perfect place, but it would cause a huge scene and mass casualty..>Master, please summon some drones, I believe I may be of some assistance…<Esmond felt relieved and summoned a gate, letting a dozen or so drones entered before shutting the gate.A guilt fluttered in his heart for not getting in contact with Echo once he was
