The operation to kill the Emperor Tree ended in an explosive and dramatic fashion!
First, the battle ended in a resounding victory to the Larkinson Clan. The Emperor Tree had been felled. Its ebony tree heart had been burnt until there was nothing but charred remains left in place.
In order to confirm that the Emperor Tree had truly perished, a large amount of mechs quickly arrived to secure both the major Solus Gas deposit as well as the remains of the gigantic calamity plant.
Multiple shuttles and transports descended from orbit. Each of them carried multiple teams of biotech researchers and a large amount of specialized field equipment.
Progress in studying the enormous remains of the Emperor Tree was bound to be slow. There was just too much biomass. The manpower of Task Force Solus was also woefully inadequate to complete the excavations and examinations in a short amount of time.
