Point Zero Aer-ki Jyr (best color ereader txt) 📖

The Saiyan didn’t have time to take them all prisoner. The information in their minds would be valuable, but the records might be more so. Plus, they had time to engage their sabotage nodules and there was no way he could use his Regenerator on more than one at a time unless he could lay them next to each other and pull some shit that way.

But in the middle of combat, with him barely keeping them distracted from trashing the equipment, deleting more files, or someone bringing a bomb with them and just shredding everything…

There was only one way to deal with this situation, and that was the fastest way possible.

Nathen ignited both death saber blades in his armor, with the flat, glowing, and screeching energy weapons glowing Star Force blue popping out just over the top of his hands from his elevated wrist gauntlets and extending straight as if an extension of his forearm bones, for they couldn’t rotate or twist. They were locked in place.

The Saiyan fired several stun blasts at the Chixzon manning the consoles as he leapt at his nearest active targets in a blur, then started engaging them with lethal intent in mind as another three came out of a doorway and jumped toward him…

Nathen moved faster than them, thought faster, but there was only so much he could do and process in a tenth of a second, so as more reinforcements poured in and was surrounded with enemies clawing at him with their glowing green cutting spikes, he used his Ubven and dropped a restrainment field over everyone within range…then he moved through it as if it weren’t even there and wove his way through the temporarily trapped enemies and back towards the free ones near the consoles.

Those that turned to engage him he sliced and diced, but the ones who did not he shot with multiple stun blasts, for their biology was resistant to it. Fortunately Star Force weapons were adjustable, and he amped up the power level enough that it would kill other races, but would take the Chixzon down with several shots each.

They might not be fully out, and they’d have time to kill themselves if they weren’t, but he wasn’t going to kill them if all they were doing was destroying data…even if it lost him some of that data. But he wasn’t going to lose all of it.

The Saiyan blew out a Jumat ring just over the consoles so it wouldn’t damage them further, knocking down the tall Chixzon who were working at them and giving him a little more time to get around and render them all unconscious before his Ubven field eventually failed and the aggressive ones were free again.

An energy blast whizzed towards him, but Nathen saw it coming in time to twist his left shoulder out of the way as one of the arriving Chixzon had a rifle…until the Saiyan telekinetically ripped it out of his hands and flew it into a quick death saber slash. After that it was back to slice and dice, though some of the Chixzon turned to the equipment again.

It took several minutes, but by the end of it Nathen was standing alone over several stunned Chixzon, the pieces of dozens that were cut up and strewn across the floor dripping blood out of their cauterized flesh, and a room-full of equipment that looked like a pack of metal-eating beavers had gotten to it, but at least some consoles were still visibly functioning.

First priority was the stunned ones, and Nathen got to them, shot them redundantly to keep them out, then established telepathic links to them all simultaneously so he could monitor them as he used his armor’s Regenerator to two at a time remove the sabotage nodules inside their bodies and secure his prisoners.

Before he finished another Saiyan arrived, and he instructed him to get to work on the terminals with a mere thought, for they were all still battlemeld-linked…at least those in range, and when they came back into range they automatically relinked without hardly having to think about it.

So Nathen knew as soon as the other Saiyan began hacking in that he had been somewhat successful, for there was a multitude of data files available, and in exactly the format that Star Force was familiar with the Chixzon using thanks to Nefron. They hadn’t changed a thing in all these years…

Grand Admiral Han Tyver watched from the bridge of his personal flagship, The Lady of the Lake, as the Saiyan first wave teams quickly secured all the major cities on the planet, as well as few unknown ones discovered once they were on the ground. From there they moved on to all the rest, with the second and third waves doing most of the leg work. The Saiyans were here for the Chixzon, and it seemed they were not spread across the entire planet, but rather only in a few pockets in the public cities and one hidden one buried even further beneath the surface than the Kiio ones.

It had been raided and secured, with some 3,291 prisoners taken and a partial data theft of their main computers. It was estimated that the Chixzon had managed to delete or destroy about 30% of it, but currently the prisoners’ minds were being searched for the most pertinent data, with follow up teams to do a full cataloging of their secrets before they were even allowed to wake up.

The prisoner count from across the planet added another 832, with 93 more having died in combat and some 24,012 dead from self-inflicted damage. It was clear that they knew they weren’t going to escape, and rather than try and survive most of them opted to die before their minds could be raided for information…save for 4 who actually surrendered. And it was those 4 that the Grand Admiral
