After what felt like an eternal in cold darkness of nothingness. Aaron finally felt a warm feelings that he had long missed. He could felt a beating rythm beyond the chest that was expanding and contracting as he breathes through a mask.
' What's happening?'
With a heavy eyelid, he finally opened his eyes and the fluid substance immediately collided against his eyes. Surprisingly, it isn't disturbing like opening ones eyes during swimming. Rather it's comfortable.
It didn't take long for him to realize he was in a tube filled with green fluid. But he was shocked to find he had no arm and legs. But before he could think any further, a hologram appeared in his mind or sight.
[ Exit Bacta Tank?]
Without a fuss, he hurriedly agreed with his mind and was only relieved when he found a heavy cybernetic limb was attached to him after exiting the tube.
No matter the tragedy or disaster, Aaron tend to see the positive side in all things. He's not a pessimist and this traits greatly helped him in this circumstances too.
But still, being able to move his limb without being able to feel it was quite weird. He quickly get rid of the depressing thought of unable to feel or touch forever. At least he could move.
He glanced around the room and found that everything was futuristic. With that in thought, he quickly get rid of this being possiblity of after life.
" So.. I had reincarnated?"
That was the only possiblity came to his mind when he remembered all the Reincarnation novel he had read on his past life. He didn't want to think a lot. Fussing over things outside of his control was not his type.
But there's also one thing he felt so strange. That was the feeling of having another body but he couldn't quiet placed it. The distinct feeling of being able to destroy a planet with his own hand.
When he focused on this thought. His consciousness transfer somewhere around the area. The feelings of having thousands of eyes and hands. It was amazing! Soon, he loses in this new abilities of him like dreaming.
" What in the.." A brief flash of light disturbed him from continuing his word.
In a distant place outside the room, beyond the specially reinforced transparent glass, a rock was destroyed into pieces as a cannon blaster shot at it.
[0.1 point gained]
His jaw dropped as he stared with a wide eyes before trying it again. Like before, a cannon blaster shot again toward the scattered asteroid and after a brief flash of explosion it was destroyed into pieces.
The fact that the explosion didn't produced sound sent chill down to his spine. Although far, that explosion was big enough and the explosion shock wave couldn't be seen around it.
[0.1 point gained]
"..." He didn't knew which part of him he should be surprised it. The fact that he was in a ship of some kind? He was in a space? He could controls this starship like his body?
Confirming this thought, he used all features the ship could produced. For a period of time, the desolate dark and quiet vacuum space lit up like a fire work as the whole ship unleashed all it's might. Even the big gun were taken out.
He was certain, what he thought was true and not him being delusional. Moving to the next issue, his mind soon approached to the endless notification when he destroyed the cannon.
[ Total point 267.1]
He didn't knew how much asteroid he had destroyed at first but judging from the first shot till the end. It gave him a '0.1' point every shot which meant he had destroyed around 2671 total of asteroid.
He was mesmerized by this result. Back on earth, everyone was pondering on how to destroyed an asteroid if it was going to collided with earth. But with this, maybe he could also destroyed a planet.
' Wait.. could I?'
Such ambition or curiosity was better left to be put aside although maybe it's not impossible. Putting his attention to the 'system' that he described appeared in his mind.
He began to exit the room with an awkward walk while examining this system and observing the ship interior with his naked eyes.
Soon, the flagship that was stationary was also now started moving as all it's Ion engine ignited and the propeller lit up. Of course, the beautiful fire work did not stopped while the ship flew slowly.
After a some time, a small jet and a circular object flew from it's many deck. The circular object flew some distance away far from the field of explosion and instantly let out an energy gas like nebula of which the small jet went through the gas and disappeared into the center of the object.
***
At zone 3, outer part of the galaxy. Planet Desra, N4 Star System
A planet with a desert surface was seen in sight. Although that, numerous ship flew in and out from this place. But one jet flew toward this planet from a different direction. If anyone was to pay attention to this jet, they would realized it came from the desolate part of the galaxy.
It descent to the surface toward where all the ship landed. A thin purple creature, the parking worker squinted his eyes in curiosity at the descending jet. It was because the jet look expensive and smart. To compare with other ship who landed here, it was like a neat Roll Royce and a scrap
To be said, all who came here were scavenger, bounty hunter, criminals or the likes. Their ship was mostly full of decal or rusty, the latter was result from being uncaring to their ship paint.
Whooosh!
Like other ship, the white jet let out a gush of wind as it descended. It's wing closed in like a butterfly as the ion propeller died out.
Gulp
The worker gulped a dry saliva when he finally remembered the possible identity of this lander. He approached the opening hatch in which a person slowly walked out from it. The other worker too, glanced at him and the jet before him before minding their own business.
In their mind, the owner of this jet should be an official of some powerful nation and they wouldn't want to deal with such people. That's because their attitude was mostly troublesome.
Strangely, this official was using a black robe that covered his whole appearance. He glanced around before his gaze landed in the worker.
" I'm here for the parking rent sir..." The worker said toward the person respectfully.
" Can you speak Craestan?" The person ask him in Craestan language. A rather native language of those from the the 6 to 9 zone.
" Ah, yes.. I'm here for the parking rent sir" He replied back in Craestan but he was confused at the same time. Official who doesn't know Enlish? The standard language?
" Hmm.. how much?" He pondered for a moment as he rubbed his chin with his robotic hand covered with glove.
" Just 5 credit sir.." When curiosity reached the worker, he attempted to take a peek at the half showed face. But stopped when he man replied instantly.
" Now that's troublesome.." The man sigh. The worker was again perplexed at him. But before he could think any further, the man handed him a blue gem.
" Take it, I only have these stones" The man left after handing him the gem nonchalantly.
The worker was speechless before he was exhilarated and he waved at the man.
" I'll took a good care of your ship sir!!"
Hearing the worker's excited voice. The man shook his head as he walked away. This man was Aaron, he didn't have a single cred which should be the Galaxy's currency but he had only a dozen of colorful crystal. Therefore he used it in place for the currency. Eventually, he had underestimate it's value. Even the top nation wouldn't spend it like that.
' Nevermind, now I need to find some convenience store or the likes that sales food.'
The reason he came to the closest star system was to find meals to fill up his stomach and the incoming soldier he had created. The Flagship did have kitchen or bars but there wasn't a single worker not even a robot in his ship. Other than that, the ship was void of groceries. He could enter the Bacta Tank again but he had a sense of adventure. Beside, it was also because he soon need to feed a human soldiers.
[ Infantryman 10 man squad - 1 day left]
After browsing the system in his head. It turned out to have a lot of features related to the ship's many facilities.
One of it's special features was to produce a soldier by undergoing a complicated process of raising a human's embryos through a chemical reaction. Of course, the embryos was limited.
But before that, the system restricted him to produce some soldier unless he purchase it using the point he had accumulated before.
He felt the system was a bit stingy, he owned the ship yet he had to pay to create it. The price was also an astonishing of 1000 point per squad.
After destroying the asteroid for a long time, the point he had accumulated had reached around a thousand.
But it instantly went down into a dozens after the purchase. Therefore, whilst he was down here at Desra. The ship was still working to destroyed the asteroid to fill up the point bar.
" No matter if I'm capable or not, I too once dreams of what it feels like to lead an army of space soldier.. Now given this chance, why don't I become a bit ambitious?"
With such thought, he soon stopped on a street in front of a slightly crowded Bazaar. The first step to his plan was, finding a person who sale foods and maybe a stable food supplies for him.
