It has been 4 days since his first real battle and the Specter was completely dismantled, everywhere Arc looks there's a facility that is converting and creating new parts for Specter the Two mother Drones are completely merged with the Specter Core creating a new and improved Mother Core, this core will then create a Drones that will become countless part of the new Specter, the parts would then be a combination of blood Steel, black sun Steel and Ganesh energy Crystals that are made from Ganesh Tusk and bones...
The combination of those materials along with a very special Steel that only Builder droids using energy conversion can create that metal that is unique to the Sovereign empire. According to Nine, it is called Sovereign Steel, the steel is capable of absorbing energy from its surroundings, Sovereign steel has several grades, and right now Arc can barely create the lowest grade by converting a huge amount of materials. Good thing the asteroid field is rich in all kinds of materials if you know where to look and the mother drones are experts in searching and mining them.
Over the past few days the mother drones who are responsible for protecting them have managed to create over 30 million combat drones when Arc learned of it he immediately asks it to stop making combat drones and focus on creating mining drones and harvester drones. As he needed a lot of materials to convert into Sovereign Steel.
Arc name the mother Drone Legion as recognition for protecting him for a few days. Mother Drones are very intelligent the greater their number the more intelligent they are. So Legion was very happy and proud to have a name given to it by its Creator Arc.
Arc didn't know that the name Legion would soon become one of the most terrifying beings in the Universe.
He often talks to Legion, and he appoints it as the leader of all Cluster Drones or Mother Drones. He plans to combine them all together anyway as there's no purpose in having them separated. So at whim, he appoints Legion as leader of all the cluster drones he released in the galaxy.
He often talked to legion like he talks to Eve he even suggested that Legion Created a body for him/her self in the future and as long as he/she can create a cool looking body He would appoint him/her as his general in the future.
Of course, Arc was just talking nonsense and just making conversation to pass the time, but to Legion, it becomes a goal to create a cool looking body, Legion even ask for access to the galactic net to study, which Arc granted as he didn't see any problem with it, he likes the initiative of Legion to learned, what he didn't know that Legion only want to study what cool looking body means and what it looks like.
Back on Earth.
Oda and the army is busy making preparation for the upcoming operation on Maharlika kingdom.
But what Arc didn't know His encounter with Ganesh would start a chain of events that would affect everything around him.
Somewhere in the bright galaxy.
"My Lord, we have discovered a new Enemy."
"I know, I have seen the report that black Mecha is far beyond our capabilities, but the Army with it is the same as what we encounter in sector 89-sg6. I need to report this to His Highness." Said the huge shadow.
"But my Lord is that wise? We were tasked to subjugate the whole Bright Galaxy if we.."
"Matters not, I suspect that black Mecha is related to the sovereign empire, if I'm right then we are not a match with it. Not even if we use the knight class dominator. Or what the humans called Ganesh."
"You mean my Lord there's a sovereign tool holder here in the bright galaxy? But we have thoroughly studied the powers on this Galaxy how come we only heard about it now?"
"I suspect it is like us not exactly a Tool Holder but like us, someone sent by a Sovereign Tool Holder."
"If that's the case should we withdraw? I remember his Highness saying to avoid all conflicts with a Tool Holder."
"And that's why we are reporting it, we can let his highness decides what to do here." Said the huge shadow.
Moments later.
My Lord, we have received a reply from his highness...
"He only said one word, CONTINUE."
"Then we will continue as his Highness decrees, order all knight class to prepare for battle, it's time to unleash them and increase the production of dominator whatever the cost. And lastly, I want to learn about this new enemy of ours." Send xxxxxxx to investigate." Said the huge shadow.
"Yes my Lord."
Time flies in the blink of an eye 25 days have passed since Arc's first battle.
The Specter is already been completed all upgrades have been completed on the outside it looks no different from the previous Specter but in reality, it's nothing like the old specter. But the specter is not truly complete, yet. It doesn't have an army of drones yet. No, that's yet to be created. But for now, the ship is ready to sail again.
Arc next destination is liberty, he has a meeting with Shaira the antique shop owner, in fact, Shaira called Arc the very next day but as Arc is stranded while the Specter is being upgraded, he made a bunch of excuses to delay the meeting, this makes Shaira even more desperate. But since Arc can't do anything about it as well he has no choice but to delay until Specter is capable of moving Again.
Arc left part of Specter with Legion to create more Combat drones for Specter. As only the upgraded Specter can create its very own drones it is far more powerful than any drones Arc has ever created. The Specter is now a 1-Star ship according to Nine. After its upgrade and the drones it created is also 1-Star and that's why it can only be created by part of the specter.
After leaving some instruction to Legion he left for Liberty.
