Pant, pant, pant.. for the last 30 days Arc has been addicted to training in the 1-STAR rank training machine, he spends most of his time training non-stop, ever since he first step into it, he becomes addicted to it.. the training machine is an octagonal-shaped room, it's exterior is jet black metallic except for the door that's golden in color,
from the outside it looks like a regular fancy room, but the moment it was started it's like a whole new world was created, every time Arc entered it, it's like he was transported into another world,
so for the last 30 days Arc experience a lot of things, he died a lot too and the pain is real so he suffered a lot, but the training machine would stop every time he can't take it anymore to protect his mind, most people would be traumatized by the experience but Arc was different he only felt excitement and trill it's a first for him he wondered if this is what the adrenaline junkie felt like whenever they risk their life for fun and excitement...
And right now he was fighting a monster using only a hand made knife his body is already bloody and his left hand is dangling from his shoulder his face was pale but his eyes tell a different story, his enemy is also not looking good, one of its eyes is destroyed from a deep cut, a huge wound can be seen across its body one of its arms is missing.
And it keeps on roaring, the monster looks like a huge Orc it's remaining hand is holding a club full of spikes and blood can be seen dripping from it, it suddenly charges at Arc while trying to smash him to death, it swings its club at Arc, he already seen this kind of attack and was used to it but his body is barely responding, he tried to roll over to avoid the swing but it clipped his foot smashing one of them, he winced, he felt the pain he can never get used to it no matter how much he tried, but he can endure it longer and longer the more he experiences it and he no longer panic like the first few time he got hurt, and honestly he's been thru worst than this at least one of his hand is still working.
he stubs the orc-like monster in the thigh and he put all his weight in it cutting it all the way down, felling the monster the moment it fell his knife is already ready to cut its throat, but not everything went according to plan when it fell it fell on top of him crushing his head, he died.
As he exited the training machine his face is pale,
"shit!, so unlucky I almost have it,"
He looks at the time it's already late at night... he went to the bathroom and took a shower.. this has been his life for the past 30 days except giving his order once in a while he spends most of his time training...
A lot of things happened in the last 30 days shadow units already started training their first batch of recruit, most of them are girls age around 15 to 20 yrs old many of them are rescued from the criminal organization, the rest was recruited by Eve all over United Government, the first batch are numbered around 80+, they will be trained and possibly brainwashed by Ruby and Jem for the next 60+ days. their training started 10 days ago...
As for Tom and Jerry, they were able to recruit over 400 people, Arc didn't bother to know where they came from. their training started 15 days ago Biggs and wedge are also there helping.
20 days ago Arc uses his energy units on a rank 5 [Enhancement serum factory] that cost 150 energy. upkeep is 5en every 100 days if materials are provided if not upkeep 10+ energy a day, luckily materials can easily be bought in the market although some are quite expensive, money is something, Grand Trading Corp. Never lack just the sales of solutions are providing Grand Trading Corp. billions of revenue on a weekly basis not to mention the Hunter Equipments. In other words, Grand Trading Corp. is swimming in money, and most of it was being used for training and developing new facility...
who would have thought that in just a month or so, from being poor to a billionaire, in fact, the first time Dianna gives him the weekly financial report and saw the numbers, he thought it was a typo. he couldn't stop grinning the whole day on that day.
The enhancement serum will be given to the new recruits it will never be sold.
Also 5 days ago Grand Trading Corporation opens up a new company branch call Grand Technology Corp. along with the release of the product called GM alpha it's a mobile phone similar to the one Arc have only severely downgraded, Arc bought a new factory, a rank 5 Mobile communication factory for 250 energy its upkeep is 10 energy every 100 days if materials are provided if not 500+ every 10 days. this is the first step in Grand Trading Corp. stepping into the military business.
Also 25 days ago Lisa come back to tell him the response from their higher up, as expected they refused.. but funny enough 10 days later the first skirmish of HFA against the alien Force they nicknamed Ganesh as it resembles an old idol Ganesha they look like a bipedal elephant with four arms and they are heavily armored, they were 3-5 meters tall the biggest they encounter so far is 5 to 8 meters and they are strong luckily in space battle personal strength is useless only the power of their ship matters.
20 days ago when the first skirmish happened 10 ships of HFA 2nd squadron was lost and many are damaged the enemy didn't fare any better they lost 12 ships before they retreated in defeat, the success of the first battle greatly increased humanity moral, added to that, that even though 10 ships are lost not many have died because they were able to evacuate in time.
As humanity celebrates the navy top officials are having an emergency meeting the reasons? out of 10 ship lost 7 are supply ship, clearly, their enemies are targeting their supply line and they have succeeded, without supply ships, they're stuck until new supply ships have come to replace the ones that have been destroyed, and that's a big problem without supply ship all solutions they have will need to be consumed within 30 days or it will expire.
The supply ship purpose is to manufacture new solutions every 30 days in other words without supply ship the whole squadron will have to start fasting and stocking of goods is useless if after 30 days it will expire and regular food is a no go since it is not enough to supply their enhance body.. they have to eat 10 times a regular human eat to get the energy they need, inland or in the city, it's not a problem since food is abundant but in space, it's a big problem especially if you have to feed thousands if not hundreds of thousands of enhanced soldiers.
