Chapter 367: White heart
🕑 Added 2025-11-09 17:26:16 +0000 UTC“Alright, let's give it a try,” Adam said as he controlled Spector Unit 6 to fly towards the Scorpo’s corpse while the remaining seven drones reattached themselves.
As it arrived above the Scorpos corpse, Spector Unit 6 pulled out one of the beam sabers from the compartment in one of its legs before looking down at the corpse as Adam studied the overlay that had appeared on the HUD showing where he needed to cut in order to remove the heart.
After studying the overlay for a few moments, Adam had Spector Unit 6 hold the beam saber over the corpse before activating it, causing the red energy beam to emerge and come into contact with the corpse.
However, instead of piercing directly through the corpse, the beam saber seemed to meet resistance from it, as it battered against it while the area around where the two made contact started to glow red as it heated up.
[StealthAssassin9 (Earth): Don’t think this is working streamer.]
[Beinglittleisnotadisadvantage (Strathorp 7): The streamers' AI is correct. While you can’t tell yet, give it a couple of minutes, and the beam saber will penetrate the corpse. This is how people normally go about cutting the hearts from Scorpo corpses.]
[AlamoMatador4thewin (Earth): That thing's body is that resistant? 😮]
[Emojisonly (Earth): 😮]
After a couple of minutes, the red beam of energy from the beam saber fully penetrated through the Scorpos' corpse as it appeared out the other side.
After it penetrated all the way through, Adam controlled Spector Unit 6 to start moving its hand at a very slow pace as he had the beam follow the outline that Spector had placed on his overlay.
{So is the heart really all we need from this thing?} Adam thought as he continued to cut out the heart.
[[Afirmative. While Scorpofacid and the heart are the most sought-after parts of a Scorpo, they are not the only valuable parts of its body; however, the heart is the only piece necessary for the experimental drive.]]
{It will take way too long to cut this thing up, so we will just stick with the heart.}
As Adam continued to cut along the lines as indicated on his HUD, several ships appeared at the edge of the stream's vision and quickly approached the Scorpos corpse, while Adam suddenly heard a voice that was broadcast over an open channel.
“Spector Unit Six, this is the captain of the Catonian cruiser, Prime of Leonian. We have been dispatched to this location because of the appearance of the Scorpo; however, we witnessed on the Sportscast feed that you successfully managed to kill it. Thank you for your assistance.”
“That was on the Sportscast feed?” Adam asked in surprise as he looked behind him and noticed the small camera that was still following him.
“Indeed, since you have already killed the Scorpo, please allow us the handle the corpse and dispose of it for you.”
[HackerSu (Trillion): They're only offering to do that because the corpse is valuable and they probably want the heart.]
[OfficialMuriel (Aqua Primus): Can’t argue with you on that.]
“You appear to be trying to remove the heart from the corpse. Is that correct?”
“It is, is that a problem?” Adam asked in return.
There was no response for several minutes while Adam continued to slowly cut the heart out.
[Superhearofangirl (Earth): Why are they taking so long to reply?]
[LadyErkath (Deverinian Prime): They are probably communicating with their superiors and asking them if its ok for Adam to take the heart, which is the most valuable part of the Scorpos corpse.]
[1000yearsofdeath (Earth): My money says they're stupid and try to stop the streaming, claiming the heart, which in turn leads to another bloodbath. Kekeke.]
[Phoenixempress (Fenix Nest): I doubt it, I don’t think Matriarch Maiya would be foolish enough to try and keep the heart, especially since it would no doubt offend Adam and, through him, Diva Lorelie, who still needs to do her concert tour in the Felidae Galaxy.]
[DeverinianLordMalacoss (Deverinian 9): Agreed. The heart may be valuable, but is it really worth making an enemy with someone who can take down a Scorpo single-handedly?]
[1000yearsofdeath (Earth): Can you classify using a mech as single-handedly? Kekeke.]
[DeverinianLordMalacoss (Deverinian 9): You know what I mean.]
“My apologies for the delay, but I had to pass on your request to someone with more authority than I since the heart of a Scorpo is a valuable resource,” The captain of the Prime of Leonian finally replied.
“Was it a request?” Adam asked as he had Spector Unit 6 start cutting the final section.
“I guess not, I apologise for my poor choice of words. However, I am happy to report that the Matriarch herself has stated that it is fine for you to take the heart since you were the one who defeated the Scorpo.”
“I’m happy to hear that.”
[Whostolemyduck (Earth): Finally, a sensible leader.]
[Handsome3horns (Vinox 2): Damn, I wanted to see some more bloodshed. 😖]
[Lizziethetruepower (Palalxia): He still needs to go pay the bounty hunter guild a visit, remember.]
[Handsome3horns (Vinox 2): Oh, you're right, 📣]
[Prestigious3horns (Vinox 2): Do you know for certain that he’s heading there?]
[Lizziethetruepower (Palalxia): I know how my baby thinks.]
[MercheadAnderson (Palaxia): Babe. 😭]
[Noobkiller9000 (Earth): I honestly can’t figure out if Lizziethetruepower is just messing with MercheadAnderson as a form of punishment, or if she's serious.]
[1000yearsofdeath (Earth): Well, he is basically stuck on the couch for the rest of his life by now. Kekeke.]
[MercheadAnderson (Palaxia): Don’t remind me. I’m gagging for my wife's touch. 😭]
[CEOHopkins (Earth): TMI 😐]
[Lizziethetruepower (Palalxia): I might actually just leave you on the couch each night after making that sort of public comment. 😡]
“Do you need any assistance removing the heart?” The captain of the Prime of Leonian asked.
“No, I’m done,” Adam replied as he deactivated the beam saber.
After storing it in its compartment, he had Spector Unit 6 grab hold of the section of the body he had just cut out before he yanked it away, revealing a strange, slimy, silver-white object.
“It’s not red,” Adam said in surprise.
[Phoenixempress (Fenix Nest): Silly boy, not every creature in the universe has a red heart; we Phoenix’s have gold hearts, for instance.]
[CEOHopkins (Earth): Gold hearts? 😱]
[Celebrityhunter69 (Earth): Seriously? 😱]
[Emojisonly (Earth): 😱 💲]
[Sparesomechangebro (Earth): I wonder how much change I could get for a gold heart.💲]
[Phoenixempress (Fenix Nest): Indeed, if you think that's surprising, then you will be even more surprised when you learn that dragon hearts are the same colour as their scales.]
[Superhearofangirl (Earth): So Tephe has a white heart?]
[Phoenixempress (Fenix Nest): Correct, while her mothers, Senator Pevaphio’s, is purple.]
[NonpareilRaphilia (Aaru): Scorpos have white hearts because of the special energy they possess that allows them the travel through sub-space.]
As Adam has Spector Unit six reach inside and grab hold of the Scorpos white heart, a section of the mech's armour opened up, revealing a hidden compartment that released a mist of cold air.
Adam inserted the white heart into the compartment, which closed back up before saying, “It’s all yours. I need to leave now as I have other matters to attend to.”
After speaking, he turned Spector Unit Six towards Felinia Seven and flew off towards the planet, leaving the rest of the corpse to the Felinia Seven Defence Force.
[Gunlovergirl (Earth): Back to dealing with the Bounty Hunters Guild, let's gooooooo.]
[1000yearsofdeath (Earth): This is going to be fun. Kekeke]
[Noobkiller9000 (Earth): Those idiots signed their own death warrants.]
[Superior4horns (Vinox 3): Errr, guys, I think the Levithen is following the streamer.]
As Spector Unit 6 flew towards Felinia Seven, the young Levithen followed behind it, easily keeping up with it while performing rolls and waving its tail-tentacles in a way that made it seem like it was happy.
[NonpareilRaphilia (Aaru): I think you're right.]
[OfficialMuriel (Aqua Primus): Am I the only one getting happy vibes from it?]
[CEOHopkins (Earth): Nope, you're not.]
[Celebrityhunter69 (Earth): Do you think it wants to be friends with the streamer?]
[AlamoMatador4thewin (Earth): Can you even make friends with a Space Whale?]
[Puntanghunter69Ver2 (International Space Station): Maybe it’s a female and wants to join the streamer's harem. 😏]
[Noobkiller9000 (Earth): WTF, you're actually on the ISS? You were being serious?😵💫]
[Gunlovergirl (Earth): Good lord, I can’t believe this guy is actually an astronaut.]
[Puntanghunter69Ver2 (International Space Station): I explained this before, why so surprised when I told you I was on the Challenger shuttle?]
[Gunlovergirl (Earth): I was hoping you had found some way to trick the stream.]
[Noobkiller9000 (Earth): Same.]
[Puntanghunter69Ver2 (International Space Station): Wow, that's fucked up.]
[[NOTICE: The Levithen is following.]]
“What?” Adam asked in surprise as he spun Spector Unit 6 around while flying towards the planet so that it looked like he was flying on his back while he looked back at the Levithen that was happily following him.
To his and everyone on the stream's surprise, the Levithen mimicked Spector Unit 6’s movements by spinning in space and flying on its own back.
