>>5747441Glad to hear!
>>5747651Also glad to hear! I've got a lot I've still got in reserve like-
>We gonna meet Rom the Space Knight next too?Stop reading my notes!
>>5747966Well, there is something the Ginyus developed...
And okay, we are back!
>>5747428“Okay, last unimportant chunk!” your uncle calls out, hefting up a big piece of the mech’s internals. You take your position, Power Pole gripped tight in your hands, extended up a few meters. “BATTER UP!”
He flings it at you, and you swing the Power Pole, using your Wind Magic to make sure this hit doesn’t smash it to pieces but instead send it flying. And… it’s going… it’s going…! IT’S OUTTA HERE! You pump your fist in the air, the crow goes wild!
…Well actually they seem mostly just kinda amused by your antics, but hey, you had your fun. Sadly, you gotta focus back on important stuff, as Irico contacts you all. “We’ve successfully infiltrated the laboratory. A couple near-misses, but no detections just yet. Nalitaty is currently trying to hack into a central computer.”
“Good to hear that you’re both safe still. What have you been able to uncover so far?” Eagalia asks.
“Well, Demiurgos has definitely been attempting to track you all still, but it looks like you’ve delivered her quite the setback by destroying that scorpion mech thing.” Irico answers. “There are a couple other ‘projects’ we’ve come across in the infiltration. Big focus seemed to be on reconstructing some kind of silvery alien jet and a red, white, blue, and chrome… jetbike of some kind?”
Eagalia looks down and sighs. “I shouldn’t be surprised. Are they active?”
“No, though concentrations of Destron Gas are high in the area around them, from what Nalitaty has been able to detect.” Irico replies.
“...And we might have bigger problems. Recently accessed files include two standouts: Project Mugenbine, and Project Ashura-X.” Nalitaty says hesitantly. “I can try to access both of them. It’ll take a moment.”
Zubastik crosses his arms. “…That’s another risk you’re taking. Are you sure that’s wise?”
“We’ll be fine!” she enthusiastically replies. “How about the rest of you? We caught some stuff on what Eagalia’s group was up to.”
“We’ve recovered most of your missing Clan members.” Pantea states over comms reassuringly. “And cleared out both the Metal Beasts and the Rust Devil.”
“...Rust Devil?” Videl repeats.
“A… sort of nanite swarm thing that could take solid form. Didn’t have a way to affect organic life, but had a pretty close call for a moment there.” Pantea explains. “Nalitaty, we probably have sufficient forces for apprehending Demiurgos, but we’ll need a bit before we can head there. One more point of interest we’ve got to go through.”
