Chapter 227 - 227

V.25

With these actions, GT once again became the headlines of all news. Elevating their status as a champion of Justice. Of course, Dianna was only following the rules Arc had set for everyone in GT. 

When the news came up. Every GT employee had their head held up high. Every one of them are proud to be part of GT, some even used their company uniform to go shopping or just simply walking around just to let others know they are working for GT. 

And following that, GT along with Future Technology released its very first combat ship ahead of schedule, in order to take advantage of the renewed interest in fighting the Ganesh. Along with the news of the rescue of the grandson of one of the elders of GFA commander Markos. The news of the rescue was greatly celebrated giving hope to the family of those who was missing in the Ganesh surprise attack. 

The rescue effort was doc.u.mented along with the ship they were using. Solar MK the name of the ship was clearly depicted at the side of the ship. The elegant design coupled with many state of the art equipment which was clearly featured in the rescue operation. 

Originally the ship was not going to be used in the rescue operation but when Tiffa heard that Solar MK was already operational she suggested using it instead of the regular ship of Fallen Angels. As it will give good publicity and authenticate the ship as a true combat ship. Being able to complete a high-level rescue mission in the territory of Ganesh would solidify its capabilities. 

Of course, many of the functions were edited out as it contains GT secrets such as advanced AI support, those features are not available in the commercially available ship. Only those who are part of GT and the Grand Army can enjoy those features. After all, the said AI is Gaia. Of course, the regular ship is equipped with a standard AI capable of auto navigation and internal functions but not for combat. 

Unlike Gaia who can be used to control the weapon systems in combat mode greatly increasing the ship's combat ability. 

The rescue mission was edited like a movie and many of the boring scenes are edited out. The Combat and escape scene was both exciting and thrilling; if it was not tagged as an actual combat video anyone would think it was scripted, even the expressions of the rescued individual was caught in vivid details along with the interview about their experiences. 

But the most amazing thing is how the combat was captured so closely and in clear details. Even some of the conversation of Fallen Angels and their coordination was captured clearly. Of course many of those dialogues are scripted as Fallen Angels don't need to actually talk to each other to coordinate, as Gaia was the one giving them real-time instructions. But for the sake of appearance and also to hide Gaia's existence they need to play this act. And the Fallen Angels are quite used to it after all; they are running a reality show under the two sisters' supervision. 

And besides, much of the dialogue was not really part of the actual combat situation, it was recorded before the actual mission and was added afterward. Many of the combat scenes were also edited out especially when they use weapons that are not commercially available. 

Like real-time drone support and advanced weapons, all of them are edited out. But the video was edited out so skillfully that those who are watching wouldn't figure out. Even if they did, it is understandable that many of the actual scenes would be filtered out. As it contains company secrets. But mostly they are thankful they are able to see actual combat scenes and not some reenactment like many organizations do. 

The one who was overjoyed is commander Markos as well as commander Mikaela who would have thought that one of her sons is actually part of the VIP crew who was able to escape. It turns out Commander Mikaela's son, his ship was in the Command center undergoing routine maintenance when the attack happened; no one was able to figure it out as the command center was completely destroyed and even the Black box was nowhere to be found. 

Therefore they have no way of knowing who was in the base when the attack happened. Only after making a roll call on all the surviving sh.i.p.s were they able to figure out what sh.i.p.s were destroyed and of course their crew was automatically designated as either KIA or MIA. Only after the rescue of the survivors did they begin to hope that maybe there are other survivors who managed to escape during the attack. 

Believing in something impossible is better than giving up hope such as human nature. 

Commander Mikaela was finally able to smile again after several days of tireless work looking for her missing sons and grandsons. At Least one of them was able to survive and maybe just maybe others were able to escape as well.

GFA is in a celebratory mood despite the severe loss they suffered, finally something worth celebrating after days of the gloomy atmosphere. 

Over the next few days, the survivors were invited to many prominent talk shows to retell their harrowing experience. Only the main characters of the rescue operation Fallen Angels, the real heroes were missing, that is because they once again went on a secret mission only this time they are rescuing one of their own. A stranded shadow unit and this time GT and Grand army are not pulling back any punches. 

GT and Fallen Angels mercenary group received countless invitations from many prominent shows and also a personal invitation from commander Markos and Commander Mikaela... Unfortunately, all of them are politely refused as Luna and her team was nowhere to be seen. 

Meanwhile, another group of mercenaries under the Grand Army is in the heat of battle. Carnage mercenary group was combating a regiment of Ganesh with Fenrir leading the charge. 

The reason is simple: they are a bait to lure the enemies while Luna's team would sneak into another of Ganesh territory to rescue a survivor. 

And unlike Gaius and GFA survivors this rescue operation is not a simple one. After all, the survivor they are trying to rescue is a prisoner taken captive by a group of Ganesh. Luckily they weren't able to figure out her identity yet, if not Ganesh would do anything to protect her at all costs, until they can extract all the information from her. 

Fortunately, she was able to activate and release communication drones without Ganesh being aware of it. The drones then did as it was programmed to secretly send messages. It took several days for the drones to finally escape the Ganesh jamming field and successfully sent a secure emergency transmission. 

Glamor was part of the first batch of shadow units. Unfortunately, she wasn't as good as Dove and Michelle or anyone of the top ten for that matter, in fact, she was at the bottom in combat ratings after all her talent lay elsewhere. Infiltration and information gathering was her forte. When it comes to those two things she is at the very top of the list. 

Before being rescued by Ruby and Jem she used to be an actress but unfortunately, she was abducted and constantly r.a.p.ed by the son of the owner of the network she was working with, everyone thought she got into an accident on one of her hiking trips. 

But in reality, she was abducted, tortured, r.a.p.ed, and later sold to one of the criminal organizations. Before being rescued by Ruby and Jem. She already made peace with her past, she already claimed her revenge to all those that wrong her. She never revealed herself to her family members. To her, the past her is already dead and the Glamor is her new identity as a different person and she already has a new family, the shadow unit. 

She was a good actress, a talent she was able to perfect in her days as a shadow unit. And served her well into many infiltration missions she underwent. 

And this time her mission is to infiltrate one of the leading organizations in the war against Ganesh, The Coalitions. An organization created by many different races mostly victims of Ganesh conquest. It's a difficult mission after all humans are a minority in organizations like the Coalitions. 

But she quickly found out that no race was immune to her great acting skills and so she quickly rose in ranks and even was given a position in one of the Coalitions flagsh.i.p.s. Unfortunately, her squadron was ambushed and despite giving everything it has ended up being annihilated, she was able to escape using emergency escape pods only to be captured by the Ganesh. Fortunately, she and her group weren't killed immediately for some reason the Ganesh are keen on taking them as prisoners, which is considered good news for her. 

And so therefore during one of the times, they are transferred she was able to secretly send a communication drone out without alerting her captors. And this led to the current rescue attempt. Of course, she has no idea if her drones were able to successfully send the emergency transmission. And therefore she was constantly looking for the right time to release another one not knowing Luna and her team are already near them just waiting for the right time.
