Having returned back to Adelaide from Thailand by midday on the 15th of February, Esmond returned home before jumping straight over to the space.

He dealt with the series of notifications once he returned to the Spatial Ark Star World, since Esmond couldn't be bothered asking Carter.

Appearing within the space, Esmond immediately noticed the second planet within sky far above.

From what he could see with his enhanced eyesight was the planet was covered in waste of all kinds.

Esmond shifted over to the surface of Gebrion with his mask on to filter any toxins in the air.

What he expected was biological waste and similar rubbish all over the planet's surface, however Esmond saw various starships crashed out.

Many seemed to have gone through battle and were ripped apart, but Esmond could tell that if some work went into repairing the ships, they could be operational.

Looking around, everything seemed to have gone through some kind of battle or fight before being sent here by the powers of the Retail Market.

"Ahh! You're here!

Makes things much easier to deal with."

Maverick suddenly appeared beside Esmond on Gebrion.

He explained to Esmond that the waste on the planet and what would be sent to their site in the world of the Retail Market, was collected by the Market somehow.

The items on the planet were collected throughout galactic space which was made up of ships that'd gone through battles.

.

Because of the analysis done by the Spatial Ark Star World, Maverick told Esmond there seemed to be much more than they bargained for on the planet.

"There are traces of Elves, Dwarves, and other magical races on the planet?"

"Yea, from what I can tell they are at the bottom of this heap of waste, but I can't tell if they are alive or dead." Maverick replied to Esmond who was surprised that any of the races that Henry Talbot had on the planet survived the dumping.

"Start a major clean up immediately of the planet before we start restoring everything."

Maverick left with Esmonds orders, who also left and returned to the Mainland before opening up the System Store.

Esmond had more than enough Credits to purchase a certain number of items currently on offer, but he quickly went over to hardware and purchased some drone factories.

Even though Carter or anyone else could easily create a drone factory with the resources in the space, Esmond was purchasing industrial level drones which could deal with the processing of ships and other huge structures.

Shifting over to the patch of area where the other drone factories were, Esmond asked for some help from the automated humanoid drones controlled by one of the A.I Spirits to organise land.

Finding a large enough plot of space, Esmond set down the factory and immediately changed up the coding and make up of the drones, just like he'd done with the first drone factory he'd purchased.

Echo and Carter sent over a swarm of drones to quickly finish the upgrades, especially the updated materials they were being used to create the drones.

.

"Carter…

How is Rashid doing?" Esmond stood back and watched the drones at work while called out Carter's name into the air, knowing full well that he would appear like a genie to his side.

"Better than I expected him to be doing…

That tenacious bastard keeps pushing through the changes."

Carter had taken Rashid the second he arrived into the space over to the medicinal garden where they had body strengthening and organ cleaning potions which would help him deal with the Spring.

So far, Rashid had started to stand up and walk around on his own, though it would require some effort from his side, it was much better than his previous self that always needed assistance.

Esmond had already told the old man that he would be going through a tough time so Rashid could live longer and fix his order.

Carter had already told Rashid in Esmonds place that the Order of the Hassassins could only be fixed by Rashid himself.

Rashid didn't understand at first but the more his movement returned to him, the faster he realised that Esmond might task him with cleaning up his mess.

While Rashid wouldn't be wrong to assume so, he didn't know that Esmond had already started taking action to stir the pot of the Hassassins.

.

Esmond was ready to leave once the first drones came off the production line and shifted straight over to the library at the cabin and went searching for a particular comic.

Going over the Marvel section, Esmond quickly found the comic he was looking for.

Believing it could do him more could than harm…

Hopefully…

Anyway, Esmond thought that if he got the certain reward he expected, then he might be able to deal with a big problem straight away.

After all, being able to fly through the air and vacuum of space without any issues was something extraordinary, especially at his level.

Because of his body being a Primordial Human, and a Noble one at that, it meant a huge sum of energy and power to help him advance into the next evolution stage of power and strength.

Esmond just prayed the serum could possibly help him shorten the gap.

[Name: Sentry #1]

[Year of release: 2000]

[To Recreate What Was Lost…]

[Dr Erskine, known as the father of the Super-Solider Serum, had died and with that so was the formula for the serum.

A joint venture between two neighbouring nations created a program that was designed to find the answer to the Super Solider forum however what was supposed to be a government program spilled out of control.

With no real oversight, the program went into the hands of private contractors who wished to have a crack at the mystery.

Eventually it led to one professor finding the answer, though it was on a whole another level compared to the original Super Solider Serum.]

[Believing there to be a fix for his addiction, two men broke into the labs of a professor with the Golden Sentry Serum, the successful and incredibly powerful drug]

[Their actions would lead to the death of some innocents that would happen to be around the labs by foolishly taking and consuming the potion]

.

"Ahh fuck…" Esmond didn't have time to waste as he shouted for Carter in his mind to help him out while sprinting for the Campus that he appeared before.

'Get in and pulled the fire alarm!

After that, run full tilt till the fucking labs!' Carter was screaming directions of any students that might be too far away to hear the alarm or connected with another alarm system in a different building.

Sprinting everywhere, with his Lifeforce Pace Control working overtime, though since Esmond levelled up and his Body Core was much stronger now, he had more than enough inexhaustible energy to waste away.

Esmond even activated his magic and started to send Lightning charges through his body to hugely increase his speeds, even if it left a wake of damage behind at times.

Because the Body Core contained the sparks of his affinity, Esmond could utilise any of them at a moment's notice.

What mattered was the application of the magic.

Esmond could easily send Mana Energy, formed from his Universal Internal Body Energy to his legs to create the Lightning bolts to increase his speed.

Combining it with his Lifeforce Pace Control, Esmond was whizzing around the campus finding people within seconds and safely removing them to fair distance away.

Many people had confused expressions when they noticed they were standing some else far away from their previous position, but nobody dared to question what was happening.

For now, anyway…

.

"How… long do I… have left?"

'1 minute, 10 seconds…

Time to save the guards…' Carter said to the exhausted Esmond who was quickly pushing his limits having tried out several different techniques at once.

He would easily be able to manage for another few minutes, it was just a realisation that practical training was needed as soon as possible.

Esmond left to find the guards by the lab who were heading in the direction of the lab as the alarm went off.

Not waiting for them to notice, Esmond quickly grabbed onto the nearest guard and started to move them out one by one, eventually leaving only one guard and the two thieves.

Esmond was ready to grab onto one of the thieves and guard, leaving behind the one who would be drinking the serum, but Esmond couldn't figure it out right now.

Removing the guard, Esmond returned to find one of the thieves was nearing in on the potion's sections of the lab while the other was checking out some tech.

Esmond was about to grab the guy near the computer until he clicked some button and a few golden serums appeared.

"Ahh fuck…" not wanting to stick around Esmond grabbed the guy by the potion section of the lab and left, before watching from a distance as a part of the university campus blew up into the sky.

"Two serums…

Did not expect that…"

Esmond was checking out his rewards, including the new artificial intelligence he was rewarded.

He also had another artificial intelligence that came along with the Ringworld Installation named Spark, though Esmond renamed him Gilly, as it preferred taking Spark as its last name.

Esmond found it a bit weird, but its personality made it special.

Gabriel and Gilly both seemed to get along well and started cooperating together to transform the Ringworld with a vast and improved ecosystem.

Gilly was also helping out with the study of the Ecumene technology.

.

Seeing that he had another A.I, Esmond called Carter to the library before asking him to pass the system to Scarlett to incorporate into her systems since it would be helpful in identifying emergencies.

After that was sorted, Esmond left for the mancave since he wanted to inject the serums immediately.

Carter came along to watch over everything just so he could prevent the worst-case scenario if the Esmond was about to implode the space below the cabin.

"Ready, Esy?"

"… Better now, then later…"

Esmond brought out the two serums and swallowed the two serums before serious pain started to envelope his body.

Echo even shifted over to the mancave once he noticed Carter was beginning to be assaulted by the changes to Esmond.

Seeing the poor state of Esmond and Carter, Echo heavily sighed before calling the others to come over.
