Lex and his teammates have been stranded in the Null zone for over 2 months, and in these two months, a lot of changes have happened.
Lex had built a large base that spanned over 10km in the canyon, with several robots moving inside it.
The robots even came in different types.
The robots were maintenance robots, in charge of running the base.
Combat robots, equipped with various weapon systems to hunt fracturers.
Service robots for logistics and support on the battlefield.
Scouts for exploration, with many others.
A spaceship assembly line had even been formed, capable of producing 12 standard spaceships each day.
Vera had acquired numerous mechas, each one suited for a particular role, and some were even balanced and could be used for any role.
Vynn was not left out; he had also gotten a neural trigger sniper, capable of shooting with thoughts, and bullets can be controlled with thoughts to adjust mid-flight.
However, the person with the most significant change was Lex himself; he had over 15 mechas in his core, various elemental weapons and rifles, along with several explosives, which were strong enough to destroy planets.
The only thing that was causing them a headache was where Lex was getting the materials from. Every time they asked, he would say he had kept them in his core previously, in case emergency.
But how could they continue believing him, when the resources seemed endless, and who would take so much just because of an uncertain thing?
But after asking several times, and he told them the same thing, they felt it was normal for everyone to have secrets, and they did not bother him again.
Vera and Vynn, please meet me in the conference hall, a voice that resounded throughout the base said.
Hearing the voice, both Vera and Vynn left what they were doing and ran towards the conference hall.
Look at this, he said as the huge screen in front of them lit up slightly.
This is footage captured by a scout robot earlier, he said as the image zoomed in.
Wait, is this the fracturer that ate Alice? Vera said.
Yes, it is. According to this image, it seems to constantly pass this route, so I was thinking we stage an ambush on it, Lex said as another screen lit up.
Since I got the intel, I have been devising a strategy.
He began explaining to both of them, explaining when they were confused.
That is all, you should both go and prepare, it will be stressful throughout tomorrow.
Lex was now alone in the hall, looking outside the window.
Then a small smile crept to his lips.
Alice, we are going to avenge you, he said in a relaxed tone before leaving the hall.
Lex entered the training hall in the base and was surprised to see both Vera and Vynn there.
I thought you were meant to rest, to prepare well for tomorrow's battle.
Do you think we would just sleep off when we are having a battle tomorrow? We are not as bad as you perceive us, Vynn said.
Lex just smiled as he heard this.
How about a spar, 2 against one, Lex proposed.
