Harem In The Intergalactic Apocalypse

Chapter 263 Too Fast



Chapter 263 Too Fast

The Guardians were under Aiko's command, but she had a large group of people that she recruited from all over the world to be with her in the command center. They had more than enough people so that every pilot had a guide, acting like the Annokale had with the Systems.

The Guardians themselves were all clones except for Eddie, but it was harder to kill than a cockroach, and he was part of me, so if he did die, he would return to me. In a sense, he was like one of my children, just like the sisters were to Tiamat. It was strange to think that way, but it was true that I could just make Eddie a new body and return him to the way he was just before death.

I couldn't do this for everyone yet, but I was close with the girls. The problem was that Eddie was a part of me and always fully connected. If I really wanted to, I could listen to his thoughts without him knowing or knowing his every feeling. I didn't want that for my girls, so instead, I infused a clone into each of their mechs. I still had no real clue what the Gideons were capable of doing.

Even after we had people question Mox, his knowledge was limited by his rank, and he was the lowest in the military, and we would be facing some of the higher levels, according to him. This strike force that ran with Beta was an extremely new addition to his crew, according to Mox, since he was sent out the moment that they arrived. That time was around when I was born, according to how long it took Mox to get here, and the date that he landed when I was almost 8.

It was strange for him to suddenly see a new group of people, but an order from the top was an order. From what Mox could tell me, they were all expert killers and would probably train every day, which wasn't comforting in the slightest. With that being said, he never met them face to face.

All of this information led to one thing, and that was I couldn't risk Aiko or any of the girls in those suits. If Beta did have some sort of power like I did, they could just force their way into the suit's system and take over their body if they wanted to. I didn't want that happening, so each girl had a clone connected with them as well, and they would be stored in a safe place. It would also help me communicate with them during battle if things got too hectic.

Eddie didn't need it, but the rest of the Guardians did, from what Mox could tell me. The thing is that I could be wrong about this, and that was always a possibility. From my understanding, Beta was an extremely powerful Gideon, according to what Olivia said, but far from the strongest. That still puts him miles above Mox in rank and skill.

If they were anything like me, then they would constantly be changing as well to adapt to any situation that came their way, and that was something we needed to be prepared for. We had the advantage of planning this out before they arrived rather than getting caught off guard like when the Annokale had first come to earth or even my first entrance into Area 51. I didn't want a repeat of being caught without pants down, so I was here to go over some of the mechs to see if I could do anything that might help them. I was already going to have a clone to send out clones for me with Aiko, but they would be very strong, but they would lack my powers or true abilities.

My strongest one was in the Annokale master ship with Olivia, and she could handle anything that came her way. This was why I had given every Guardian a powerful long-range energy weapon before leaving. Gobbles helped with this so that they could fire on any enemy ship going towards the sun but not be able to harm our own ships or any planet's surface. It would take some time to charge up and then fire, so they needed to be careful when using this new power, but it would give them an edge if used correctly during battle.

"Ok, everyone! We are going to do a quick run-through of what we are up against so that everyone knows what they need to do! From what we have been told by Mox and other sources is that there will be three different groups attacking us," I explained as I looked around at all of the Guardians standing in front of me inside the base that we had been using as our home here in New Zealand. "The first group will consist of small fighters known for their speed and maneuverability. They are normally scouts, but they work well as light infantry. These are the only units that most of you are going to be familiar with. The Andariel's."

"These little fuckers are what we were up against when we fought them in the simulation," Eddie said with a sneer, and I nodded in response. "They are rather annoying but can be taken out if you hit them in the right spot. They go down like flies when you do, but they will constantly be swarming you."

"The second group is a bit bigger than the first and known for their durability and shields. The Alpha Andariel's, and they are slow-moving, but each mech is almost as durable as our sun," I explained, making everyone's eyes widen in disbelief. "These will be the hardest to take down, so we need to focus on taking out their engines first. The problem is that I just have images of what they look like in my mind and a small amount of info on each one, so this and then the next models are going to be harder to gauge."

"What about the last group?" one of the Guardians asked, and I took a deep breath before answering. "The last group is made up of what we believe to be their best mechs, the Duriels. They are a mix between speed and durability with powerful engines that make them hard to hit. There is also a step up from those, but there is only one of them. That will be their leader, Tor."

I let out a sigh as I looked at everyone. They were all trying to process this information, and I didn't blame them one bit. This was a lot to take in, but they needed to be prepared for whatever came their way.

"Ok, everyone! You all know what you need to do! We still have no clue when the Gideons are arriving, so make sure you are ready!" I called out before dismissing the Guardians and disappearing into the ground.

I came back out of the ground into Anya's place, where she was sitting quietly. The light from outside caught in the white blonde hair and on the Memory Crystal sticking out of her forehead. I had come in silently, but I could tell that my wife could sense me as she took in a deep breath.

"You're back," she said quietly as she turned to look at me with a smile. "How did it go?"

I walked over and sat down next to her before putting my arm around her and pulling her close. "It went well. We are as prepared as we can be for now. There are still other things not related to the fight going on right now, but I have all of my clones focusing on getting everyone into safety. There have been some deaths and resistance, but when I was gone in the red storm of Jupiter, I learned a lot about myself. This power that I have, it can really do almost anything, and this is really only the beginning. There are still things that I can't deal with yet, and we are hundreds of years away from being close to facing things like that."

"I guess so, but do you really see us all as monsters?" Anya asked. She had seen everything that I had been through and the hard truth that I had to learn, but it wasn't so black and white.

"No, You are my family, along with all the rest of my wives and friends, but everyone else I need to treat like a beast. There are going to be some that want to stay the way they are, but there are some that will evolve and want to become more. I can't tell the difference, so I have to be careful, but with time I will," I explained as I looked down at her. "But for now, we need to focus on the fight ahead and making sure everyone is safe."

Anya nodded as she leaned her head against my chest and took in a deep breath. "I just worry about you. You are constantly putting yourself in danger, and I know that you can handle it, but I still worry."

"I know, but I will be careful. I promise," I said as I kissed her on top of her head before we just sat there in silence and enjoyed each other's company. I had to enjoy these small moments, but it was only about ten hours since we had first discovered that the sisters were relatively close but still 200,000,000 Light years away.

This could mean that they were still two to five days out, depending on how far they could jump, but I ended up letting my eyes slip close. Overthinking things when I was missing information was just going to make my head hurt.

The moment I seemed to fall asleep, I felt Anya shaking me.

"Daniel!" Anya said with urgency, and my eyes snapped open, fully awake.

"What is it?" I asked, but Octavia popped into my view.

"The sisters just jumped! 100,000,000 lightyears in one go! We have exactly twelve hours before they reach our sun out close to us!" Octavia explained, and I sunk into the floor and into her tree.

This was too fast!
