Star Citizen Online: Isekai Edition

Arcturus observed the Branch Manager of the Starlight Drive Yard Industries closely, noticing the sharp edge aura around the man, something unnerving that was screaming danger about the elderly-looking Asuryani.

For sure, the man was a skilled killer and deadly warrior; that was as much as he could tell from his body posture and the way he appeared.

This was something that he knew from his personal experience on Earth; while he was a primary lecturer and professor at the University, he also practiced law as a barrister.

His specialty in the area?

War Criminals, hired killers and even professional assassins.

So, he had some kind of third sense that allowed him to tell if someone was dangerous, especially if the person attempted to hide it. During his life on Earth, he met many professional assassins that he defended at court, always winning naturally.

Or retired soldiers or commanders of units that were charged with War Crimes, which was pretty common and one of his specialties. There were a lot of them, considering the state that the Earth was in.

The World War III left the world and global politics in a catastrophic state and both sides went all out in the war and committed countless unspeakable things on both sides, which meant a lot of clients for him.

And the Branch Manager of the Starlight Drive Yard Industries was certainly giving him an even more dangerous feeling than anything that he had felt before. It was clear that this elderly-looking man in luxurious clothing was something extremely deadly.

"Thank you for your time, Brach Manager Alvix."

Arcuturs said politely as he looked at the Branch Manager of the Starlight Drive Yard Industries Karleon Alvix.

"So, what can the Starlight Drive Yard Industries do for the fellow member of the Asuryani Highborne?"

Branch Manager Karleon Alvix sat opposite Arcturus, as he was holding a datapad in his hands.

"Firstly, I have some cargo that I want to sell. Here is the list of the things; most of it was taken from the pirates who were robbing a bunch of Type 1 space nations and maybe some of the Type 2 ones."

He then showed the holographic projection to the Branch Manager, who scanned the list with his eyes at a fast speed, calculating the price within a mere moment.

"48,000 Universal Credits for the cargo."

That was very similar to the price that the Red Queen Alice calculated, so he was another 48,000 Universal Credits richer. However, this was before he would start buying the Droids that he needed for his ship.

Branch Manager of the Starlight Drive Yard Industries Karleon Alvix knew that the cargo originated from the pirates. Most probably robbed from their transport ships when the Type 1 Civilizations were trading among themselves.

And naturally, he didn't give a shit about that because Imperium would never really put Type 1 or even a heavy majority of the Type 2 Civilizations and Star Nations in their eyes. They were too inferior to even complain to them about something, so he naturally took the cargo, as it contained a lot of precious ores.

From his time in the Imperial Navy, Karleon Alvix knew that the space pirates must have robbed some very important trading vessels, like very important and probably owned by the Star Nations themsleves.

"Excellent, then; I need to buy a few droids... mainly three categories of droids: Mining Droids, Construction Droids and a few Battle Droids for protection. Naturally, I want the best ones that the Starlight Drive Yard Industries has available."

Arcturus knew that this was his initial investment, so he didn't spare anything on the best Droids available. He knew that as long as he kept improving and competing in quests and collecting bounties, then Universal Credits would just come and come.

"We have a rather extensive selection for all three types of Droids, especially for the Combat Droids; some of them are installed with even enhanced Basic A.I."

The Basic A.I. that the Branch Manager of the Starlight Drive Yard Industries Kaenlor Avlix talked about wasn't like Red Queen Alice that was on the Obscurus. She was in fact categorized as Sentient Super Artificial Intelligence.

Compared to that, most of the Droids were installed with just Basic Artificial Intelligence, which wasn't very advanced, but it was enough to be able to fulfill any task given to them and they were able to converse with any intelligent lifeform.

But they lacked the super advanced computing capabilities of more advanced Artificial Intelligences.

The first thing that Arcturus started looking through were the Battle Droids, because he needed some internal defense of his ships. Even though the Droids have some Basic Artificial Intelligence, he planned for the Red Queen to act as the Hivemind.

This, in turn, will strengthen the Red Queen and allow her to perfectly command all of the Droids, while also evolving the Red Queen at tremendous speed because she would be assimialting the Artificial Intelligence of every single Droids.

"This one looks interesting..."

Arcturus said as he looked at the spider-looking Droid.

"Aaah, yes the Spider Bastion... it is the newest Battle Droid developed by the Starlight Drive Yard Industries. We have stylized in biology of the spiders and it is indeed a marvel of engineering and killing. Each one of them has eight legs; every single one is capable of being used as a bladed vibro weapon.

Additionally, the Spider Bastion Droid is armed with several smaller Laser Weapons and has an in-built personal shield generator. It even has one smaller Main Plasma Weapon on the top. The entire Droid is made from the B-Grade Alloy that is used for the Military Spaceship, so even if the shields are destroyed, the durability of the Spider Bastion Droid is enormous."

The more Arcturus listened to the Spider Bastion Droid, the more he wanted the dammed things on his ship. They would do a splendid job in guarding the spaceship, additionally, after Alice figured out the blueprints in the future, she could replicate them.

"And their cost?"

Something like that for sure would cost a good number of Credits.

"10,000 Universal Credits per Unit."

While it sounded little, it was actually a pretty high price.
