The scientist look at the Giant figure with solid chains wrap around its body it was humanoid and like Ganesh, It has four arms but the head looks very human-like. Its whole body is jet black with golden rune-like tattoos all over its body.
The Berserker is remnant weapons of the old gods when the gods are still at war with the primordial Elementals, but after the war, many weapons of the old gods were forgotten and remains scattered across the universe and the Berserker is one of them. This uncontrollable weapon will attack anything on sight be it friends or foe. And its power is no joke.
Back in the main Universe one superpower was arrogantly declared war on a relatively reclusive old clan, for a simple reason as they took fancy of the main house daughter but was denied by the head of the family. So feeling insulted they declared war but before they could do anything the old clan released a berserker on their home planet and the results all life on the planet was extinguished. And the few remnant of them who was able to escape to space easily fell from the old clan soldiers. Wiping them from the universe.
The Berserker only stop moving after a whole year of destruction and when the old clan came to retrieve it the planet is no longer the same planet it uses to be. And because of the insident, the berserker becomes very famous and many forces are looking for it. But most berserkers found were already dead or destroyed.
So who would have expected that the professor was able to find a perfect condition berserker and hide it in the base for study.
That's why the commander is so mad when he finds out about it.
Professor gestured to the commander and said. "Let's go we can't be here when we release that thing."
The Commander nodded and follow the professor out. The commander looks at the soldiers remaining and shakes his head. "What a waste," he said.
They are all disposable after all only he and the professor and his team of scientists are important in this base everything else is disposable.
They goes deeper into the earth near the artificial Core. Behind the Commander are the professor and hundreds of scientists working for the professor.
Their job is to improve and upgrade the Ganesh combat ability and the Professor thinks the Berserker is the key to that, so he used all his connection to get himself a perfect condition Berserker.
The professor sigh. Kill all power we will release the berserker in 30 minutes. The berserker can sense enegy as well as life energy so to increase their chance of hiding they must cut all power and prayed the berserker won't find them.
Fenrir and Luna were unaware of the Berserker existence, and so they continue to fight the remains of Ganesh forces. The destroyers have taken a big chunk of Carnage since the appearance of Destroyers many of Carnage members are heavily injured and casualty are increasing so Gaia would immediately blink them away when they are in danger, unfortunately, some are killed instantly by destroyers before Gaia can blink them away. Oda didn't expect the high number of deaths from Carnage as he knows how strong they are and how capable they become since they become part of the Grand Army.
But even so, Oda was calm death is part of being a soldier he knows this most of all as it was ingrained in his being. Unexpected yes but it is also a lesson for him. So in the future, he will train the beast lord much better to avoid this kind of problem from repeating again.
He knows that on the Fallen Angel side there were no casualty or even injury meaning it can be prevented if they reach the fallen angel level.
But somehow he has a bad feeling about something but can't put his finger of what is it. So he just focused on the mission. The field testing of the capability of the new mech is a success, the new mechs are showing great improvement on all charts. Making him very happy. As the mechs have mostly consisted of none system parts.
Because Arc wasn't able to build all the factories needed by his army before he leaves so Oda and the rest can only improvise they already have the means especially with the cloning Factory and with other factories like weapons and armor as well as the multi pupose factory. They only need to fill in the rest, and they can build anything, of course, it's not as good as the one comes from the system but it will do for now. Until Arc comes back and builds a better Factory from the system.
Luna and shakis are the first to enter the main pyramid building there are guards everywhere, so they didn't suspect that the commander of the base was already MIA and was planning to release a weapon of mass destruction like the god's Berserker.
Luna looked around the inside of the main pyramid and knows that it was indeed a research facility rather than a army base.
Their main job is to find what is it the Ganesh is researching and to look for the storage warehouse of the Ganesh. They want to find out who or what really a Ganesh and who is behind them. They are hoping there are some clues in this research facility.
Fenrir was next to enter after cleaning all the destroyers outside he left the rest to the others. When he entered he was greeted by many guards, but he just made quick work of them as almost all of the guards are just normal soldiers. 10 minutes later he was able to rendezvous with Luna and Shaki when Shaki saw Fenrir her eyes brighten fortunately she was inside her mech and no one notices her behavior well except Gaia.
Fenrir silver mech is covered by dried and fresh blood of Ganesh making it look menacing compared to almost spotless mech of Luna the contrast is huge.
But they didn't linger longer Fenrir released countless small drones the size of a fly. Gaia was the one controlling it the drone's job was to look for the command center.
Even though the pyramid is huge inside it is mostly empty. And the real facility is underground.
As the group continues to explore the underground Ganesh facility. Deep underground commander and Professor and the rest of the scientists are very quiet no noise can be heard except for the voice of professor who was informing the rest about the countdown.
"5 minutes to the release of the Berserker." Said the professor whispering.
4 minutes

Berserker released...
Warning! Warning! Warning! Massive energy detected... Gaia's warning rang on everyone's comm.
Fenrir and Luna were able to detect it as well.
"Oh no! Run!!" Fenrir shouted!
But Gaia already one step ahead of them She blinks all of them outside the facility at the same time she blinks the rest into the emergency transport.
Unfortunately, Fenrir and the rest weren't able to blink again after Gaia blink them as a massive energy blanketed them rendering their teleportation unusable.
Luna and Fenrir both shouted "Run!! To emergency transport."
They know it's not time to argue so the rest comply even Shaki who wants to stay behind with Fenrir have no choice but to comply for she knows she will only be baggage if she stays.
So using full power they divert all power to flight to run to the emergency transport ASAP.
Luna and Fenrir stayed to give them time to escape.
And it wasn't long before a massive hands tore the pyramid in half and jet black humanoid stands before them it stands at least 50 meters tall it has no weapon nor any armor but Fenrir and Luna know they are in deep shit!
Fenrir saw two bright Golden pupils looking at them, and he shuddered.
The Berserker howls and dash to where Luna and Fenrir were located.
The berserker was very fast despite its massive bulky body it moves very fast.
Fenrir and Luna were able to escape the first attack, they saw as the building behind them disintegrated from the Berserker attacks.
Shaki and the rest heard the howls and almost pass out from fear it is a kind of fear that comes from within them. thats when their training kicks in despite the fear they continue to travel in full speed to escape they don't need to look behind to know how powerful this new enemy is.
Their body is full of sweat even the Fallen Angels are no exceptions, in fact, the fact that they all come from the system makes them sensitive to energy fluctuations. So they are aware of how powerful the enemy is just base on how much energy it is releasing.
Berserker notice that his target escapes, and he focuses on a black wing Mechs not far from him.
Luna's eyes contracted when she saw the Berserker focusing on her. "Fuck!" She cursed.
