Since I was so busy with 02 all of the time in the room. I was not in the loop. I got caught up on what was going on. All the 13 clans made 3 AEP units and stopped. They were focused on their own affairs in their spheres of influence. After it had been confirmed that 05-001 and 10-001 were dead, the mission was seen as a failure. The clans did not send more of the clan members after humans in clans anymore. That was good for all of us. We did have some things to do with our Researcher faction. It was not looking so good for us. Both Magnetic and Erosion Clan and their AEP units were taken out by the humans. I was just in time for reviving Erosion Clan. We were going to give them shelter and comfort as they got back on their feet. Magnetic Clan was going to be next on the list. We were going to get some new allies from the exchange. We were great on that. Of the 13 main clans, we allied with 6. We also had the non-aggression pact with Void Clan. Our huge personal grudge against Water and Toxic Clans had not faded. I was not surprised that when they had found Water Clan.
It was Paul and Brett beating the drums of war. Cold Clan set a new decree based on what happened. Void Clan was going to cosign it too based on the alliance. All the members of Volition Clan. Their new decree was that anyone that tampers with an AEP unit's reproductive functions was to be killed on sight. There were no exceptions to this. The threat of the AEA units being used against the progenitors was too great to ignore by the cyborgs. It was not like we wanted to do that. Lola and her team were trying to get Cold Clan to sponsor our gymnasts. They got famous after their first tournament. A repeat performance would convince the clan that it would net a big profit to them. With that big update, it was time to get back to work. Brett and Paul welcomed me back. We were immediately getting ready to attack Water Clan. They had a public pool and water park complex to themselves. It was open to the public and that was how they made all their money. Since it was open to the public, we were going to go and find their AEP units. We were going to attack them all and cause a scene.
Payback was a dish best served cold. Paul Brett and I wanted this to send a message to the rest of the continent. The guild did their hacking and research to brief us on where we might expect them and what would be the best things to destroy. We kept the PEP units out of it. Salt water and the cyborgs did not mix well. I would not put it past them to use saline water to attack us when we were not looking if we engaged a big group of them. That left some PEA units and us human Players. That was all we needed for a mission right now. It would have to wait for Erosion Clan's return. They were next after Magnetic Clan. Instead of revealing their plans, they just told me about their operation. There was a small region of the west side of Nova City that was so lawless and poor that the very taxed government and public services did not go there to keep order. Nova City was to the northeast of the continent where there was the archipelago of 5 islands. An hour south from the beach was Nova City. The whole city was in very bad straights after the financial crash that tanked the east's economy.
