Chapter 139 - 139 Preparation

Arc back in Specter was quite happy with Vealir of Crimto race as he was able to deliver the Blood Steel very fast saving Arc a lot of time.

Arc didn't waste any time as soon as he boarded the specter he began to travel somewhere in space that's far away from any prying eyes as there a lot of people watching and spying on him where ever he goes on space he noticed it the first time he went to space with the help of Eve.

He wasn't surprised by it, he would even be surprised if no one is watching and spying on him after all that's been happening his solutions is the hottest product in the market right now and many forces wants to get their hands on it, or what they call a piece of the pie or even the whole pie if they have a chance.

So the first time he travels to space he didn't explore places away from GFA influenced as he was defenseless at that time. But now that's no longer a problem, his unmanned mecha, and many drone combat sh.i.p.s are already been created and ready for combat unless the one attacking him Is GFA with its full power no fleet can defeat his defense.

His destination is outside the solar system somewhere in a milky way, as he plans to completely upgrade the Specter and that will attract a lot of attention.

So after activating its upgraded stealth features, he warped to several places before going to his final destination, and on every stop he planted some traps for those who plan to follow him.

And just like his predictions many small forces and groups started moving the moment he boarded the Specter, but unlike before that he travel in leisure this time he warps immediately caught those who are watching him by surprise.

After analyzing his warp destination they started following of course at a relatively far distance, but what welcome them is nothing, that's right as they arrive at the warp points they didn't saw the specter, so they assumed it was just in stealth mode and was just hiding somewhere. But as they approach and look they encounter a group of unmarked Ship that immediately attacks them.

At first, they didn't pay too much attention to it as it looks like a lone pirate crew who are waiting for prey. All of them have the most advance ship provide to them to be able to keep up with the Specter, so a few pirates can not even fill a fraction of their stomach to satisfy them. Not only that all of them are professional soldiers that have been through many space combats so when the saw the pirates they just laugh at it.

The reason they assume it is a pirate as only pirates or criminals fly an unmarked ship. And that's their biggest mistake as it was not a pirate crew but instead unmanned combat sh.i.p.s are left to welcome those who are following Arc.

By the time they notice their mistake the damage is already too great in just a few minutes more than 30 sh.i.p.s are destroyed by the five unmanned combat ship.

Alerting many sh.i.p.s who are not yet being targeted but by the time they reacted another group of five unmarked sh.i.p.s appears in their rear by then they wants to reorganize themselves more but by that time more than half is already destroyed and the unmarked ship already disappeared.

Many leaders of the spying ship cursed Arc for his cunning, they all believe that Arc was aware of the pirate's location, and he leads them into it while he or Arc ship slip away using advanced stealth. Not long after they found Arc or the Specter signatures and learned of his next destination. But this time they are more prepared and cautious when they warp there.

And as they expected they didn't saw the Specter but the unmarked ship didn't appear but instead an unmarked Alien looking mecha attacked them as they are already alert the no longer underestimate their opponents but what they didn't expect is that the Unmarked Mecha is so fast and moving like nothing they ever encountered before as those movements are impossible to do by any human just the amount of G force reflected into the pilot is enough to turn him/her into mush. Even with the most advanced G-force mitigator can not stop that much G-force. So they didn't doubt that it was definitely an Alien Mech.

And again after destroying many of them the mecha just disappeared.

They are now reluctant to follow Arc into the next Warp point that they have discovered, some of them are now suspecting that Arc is related to the Forces that attack them. But many didn't accept those theories as those Mecha is definitely not Human creation, and they didn't suspect that Arc's mysterious background is an Alien Race. First, there's no way an Alien race with that Advance technology will go to Earth just to form a small company, there's no merit in it for them.

So many of them believe that Arc somehow found out the location of the hidden forces in the surrounding Milky Way and uses it to attack those who are following him.

Many supports this theory, but the next question is will they continue to follow as they have no idea what will welcome them next.

So those who are following Arc now becomes quite close after fighting side by side two times they all agreed to join forces as they all have common goals.

This time only about 30% of the total ship who are following Arc remains.

So they form a chain of command and agreed to travel together in a group, of course, this is only temporary and no one wants to be cannon fodder, but they all agreed that traveling together is still the safest. But when it comes to battle every ship for themselves and will only help each other if they can but no promises, of course, there are some who wants to take advantage of the situation and wanted to become the leader of the group but how can others have their lives place into someones hands, so they didn't agree when some suggested they voted for a leader, many disagree that no leaders are necessary and if they want to be a leader they can form their own group, but no one wants to follow another leader so eventually those that wanted to take advantage can only give up the idea, none of them are idiots who would allow themselves to be cannon fodder for others.

As they warp to their next destination following the Specter trails the arrived at the edge of the Asteroid field. Making them very nervous.

They all stop as no one wanted to be the first to enter not knowing what awaits them.

So they send probes into the asteroid field but the probes came empty only the trails of Specter is visible and no sign of enemies what so ever.

"Maybe he didn't expect us to follow him this far. Said one of the captains," as they started an online conference.

"Maybe but who would go and test that theory?" Said another.

They all quiet down.

"I'll go but don't expect me to inform you if we found something in there as we are not your guinea pigs." Said another captain.

They all cursed him silently but no one voice it out loud, for they will do the same if they are on the same shoes.

"Well let's separate from here since there no enemy sightings and moving into the asteroid field in a large group is like asking of trouble." Said another captain.

"I agree, me too I agree" more than half agreed leaving those who what's to take advantage of others in dilemma.

As some of them wants to follow behind the group but if they all separated if they follow behind someone it will be seen as show aggression, and they will be treated as an enemy who would want someone following them from behind and who can attack or take advantage of them anytime.

"Very well, let's go separately and will enter in different areas." Said one the most influential captain.

"Anyone seen tailing someone would be treated as a common enemy." said another captain.

Agreed, Agreed... all of them agreed while some are cursing in their mind.
