Harem In The Intergalactic Apocalypse-Chapter 142 No Longer The Enemy
I jumped from the silver Dragon's neck and landed on the ground, looking over at the area where the massive rock head was just above the tree.
"Beam me up!" I called, but I was the one to release my consciousness from Kratos.
"You are back?" Octavia asked as I opened my eyes.
"Yup, dealt with one problem, but now we have this other guy. I did learn a lot from my meeting with Calishora and Tiamat. I kind of hope that this Alpha guy will have a talk with me," I said as I looked down at the Earth that filled up the display.
"You were able to talk to the Astral Goddess? What was that like? I have studied both races extensively over the years since they are always chasing up. If you want to speak with Alpha, you might want to try to be nice to him. I was monitoring your fight with the Dragon, and you seemed to be agitating it a lot. I suggest you try a different approach with the Gideons," Octavia suggested, and I looked over at her with a grin.
"What? Me? Agitating people?" I laughed, and Octavia rolled her eyes.
"The Gideons don't get emotional like the Drakar do, so you will not be able to use the same tactics. The Gideons are a race that thinks themself superior in every aspect," Octavia explained, and I nodded.
"Alright, I will keep that in mind, but now it is time to slow down and spread out. You know what your job is, right?" I asked, and Octavia nodded.
"Yes, I am going to go and connect with all the AI on the planet and start gathering them for you," Octavia replied.
"Yes, but you are not an AI; you are a race of Spirits, just like my Gaia. You are one of the Annokale, a real person, not some computer program," I explained.
"I am? What does that mean?"
"No clue, but we will figure it out together, got it? Now, let's get this party on the road!" I cheered. ƒr𝙚𝙚𝘸e𝚋𝐧૦ѵ𝒆𝒍.𝒄𝒐m
Octavia nodded and then absorbed into me, along with the rest of the ship hurtling at the planet.
Then I was outside, and everything went silent as my body, the teardrop ship, started to heat up from the atmosphere. This was the big moment I had been waiting for and my time to make my grand entrance to save the day!
The ship exploded into particles, and my body spread like a cloud of silver dust slowly encircling the planet. Octavia would be controlling most of the particles, targeting every Annokale on the planet, and forcing them to gather near Central City.
The time it would take them didn't matter as long as they got to us. I could make sure that every one of them we cleaned.
I no longer saw them as the enemy.
The Star Child had made them this way, putting them through hells and countless lives. Now, I would help them all find themselves again, even if it was for my own benefit.
[You are beyond strange, you know that. Even after finding out what he did, you don't blame the Star Child? He basically brought an army to your doorstep that attacked your world and then told you to fix them!]
'Yeah, what a jerk, right?'
[Yes, he is a jerk! Wait… you're not supposed to agree with me!]
'Well, he is a jerk, but I am sure he has his reasons. The whole lot of you seem like a bunch of children fighting with sticks. Now, let's deal with this last problem.'

"Chain them down!" Marley screamed, and chains and grass started to burst from the ground.
They grappled and pulled at the six-foot-tall rocks formed together like people. That barely even slowed the tide of them all down.
It was all Marley needed as she dashed forward with Firaga, Katie, and Angelise. The AI wore silver armor with tiny wings embossing it, wielding a long spear.
Marley brought down Oceans Tempest, and a blue slice of ocean cut three of the rock men in half that were lined up. The blast knocked the bodies apart, but the rocks tried to reform.
"Mr. Tree! Suck the rocks down as we cut them up!" Katie yelled, but the trees were already trying to do that.

The massive form of Gravois was still fifty miles from the city center, but he was making unfettered progress, or someone was. The true Gravois was trapped inside of his own System, held like a prisoner.
[How is the subjugation of the livestock going?] Alpha asked.
[As planned, for now. Once I gained control of the System, I was able to direct it. They are all powerless to stop me at this strength, as expected. There is one that might become a problem. The Space Witches' daughter was just killed, and while weaker, should have had no problem dealing with this.]
Beta was the Operator sent on this mission to retrieve the Space Witches heart and deliver it to his supreme leader, Alpha.
The journey had been long, but now the Annokale would all be in one spot. Beta could not only get what he came for but also harvest more Spirits for the Mutainuim Devouring Engines.
[Do you think that this creature is going to pose a problem? You are one of my better operators, Beta, so I respect your judgment, as you are a clone of myself.]
[I think that he will pose a problem while I am constrained in this form, but this Daniel creature hasn't returned to the planet yet. I do not think any of these creatures he controls are strong enough to kill that Dragon. That leads me to believe that he used a Doll like I am to defeat Calishora. I know she is weak in our eyes, but to these primitive creatures, she should have been unstoppable.] Beta explained.
[Irritating. This creature is growing too fast, and that only means one thing. The Star Child is involved with this, again. That infernal snake is always one step ahead of me, no matter how many eventualities I plan for! I wish to speak to Daniel if he is intelligent enough to recognize me as what I am!] Alpha snapped and ended the transmission.
Beta mentally sighed and concentrated on what was ahead of him. Creatures.
Gigos was trying to grab at his leg, but Beta just reached down. The giant rack hand grabbed the twenty-foot-tall man around the waist and then threw him off into the distance.
At the same time, Baby Godzilla body-checked Beta in a pink dress. The result was more like watching someone body check a brick wall, and Chelsea was grabbed by the tail. 𝘧𝚛𝗲𝘦𝚠𝙚𝙗𝙣o𝙫𝗲𝚕.𝐜o𝓂
She tried to discharge, but it did not affect the stone, and she was chucked into the distance. Luckily, Mr. Tree was hard at work catching everyone thrown and setting them back down to run back to the fight.
"Glacial Freeze!"
"Crystal Coating!"
"Straight Jacket Binding!"
Timala, Diamo, and Amy all screamed, and Beta was stopped in his tracks. His arms were suddenly covered in cloth and bound impossibly as the hundred and twenty-foot tall rock man was fitted into a straight jacket.
Ice and crystal started to crawl up his legs, but Beta just internally sighed. These creatures didn't understand what true unstoppable power was, but he would show them.
