With the blocker operation Dark orders Philip to begin the planet landing the sooner this is done the sooner they can start utilizing the planet the troopers order are simply clear the planet of hostile animals while scouting the planet for a good location to set up a larger hydroponic farm to provide large quantities of food for the forces he has Dark had already idea of what to do with this new planet taking a page from the kaminoans by using the planet as one giant Clone Facility but he also plans to use a small section for Hydroponic farms to provide food this project will take months and alot of resources so Dark orders the sentinels to build a station in orbit this station acts as a remote base that connects with the command station in the Hoth system allowing the sentinels to receive orders without having to be in this system.
After the troops begun securing the planet Dark took the fleets back to the Hoth system only leaving behind Philips fleet and a large amount of sentinels to build the necessary infrastructure in the system while they wait for the troops to finish so they can begin building on the planet according to Darks instructions.
Luckily for Dark this system has a few more worlds that have atmosphere but do not have the necessary gases to make it breathable but at least they could use the UNSC's terraforming tech although it was slow and would take years it was still worth it since Dark had a feeling that the systems goal was to eventually absorb the universe he visited into his realm but i knew that would take understanding all a universal laws of that univers despite his current fast pace which he found out was due to the systems help this help only applies to laws that exist in all universes while the rest will not have help but acording to the system understanding basic universal laws shortens the time needed for more advanced ones that why the estimate for the law of the force was 8 years its based on him understanding the basic laws of this universe because as it turns out the saying that the force exist in everything that the jedi say alot was literal even being in the basic laws of the universe.
Dark and his fleets minus Victor's move away from the planet before making preperations required for them to go back to the Hoth system ones they are ready the engage the hyperdrive and the ships leave the system making the return journey.
On the planet surface a team of Clone Spartans lead a platoon of clone troops that are wearing a downgrade version of the Mjolnir armour that Red had designed for the Spartans this armour still covered the clones full body and head and even had a shield device but was not as thick as the Spartan version while also not having any of the extra addon modules that the spartans could add to give the Spartans abillities like dome shield device but was stiil better than normal armour as for where they were heading they are following a radar thats included with both versions of the armour to none friendly dots oth the radar with their weapons ready.
Their weapons are a mix of electromagnetics weapons and laser weapons both effective but both have drawbacks that's why dark went with a mix especially since amount the tech that was in the data Red received was a tech from mass effect that allows weapons to fold making them compact allowing for more weapons to be carried these troops and Spartans have four range weapons in total a shogun, rifle,sniper and a pistol covering all ranges of distance they also have a blade on thie waist for close quarters combat.
Moving through the forest killing any hostle animals that they come across the Spartans and their troops come across a clearing and inside that clearing was a shiny object that was poking out of the ground that looked unnatural but due to time it had been incased by dirt over the hundred of years it's been her but that's not what surprises the clone Spartans it's the energy it's radiating that attracts their attention due to their modification they can feel the energy trying to make the more aggressive realising this they order the regular troopers to move away it seems that this is what's making the animals aggressive and it has a weakened affect on them and their troops but the effect is still there untill a scientist gets a look at it they are not sure why it's weaker on them.
Philip is in the bridge of his command ship above the planet when he receives the information about the object without much time wasting he immediately sends the information back to the Hoth system where Dark can decide what to do with it while Philip waits he orders all the teams in the area to converge at the object just incase anything goes wrong.
It does not take long for about 6 teams to meet up with the original team that found the object making 7 teams to guard the object while they wait for order from Command as they were waiting their radars start to freak out as hundreds of red dots appear on their radars seeing the the Spartans order their troops to get ready for battle the team leader send the report back to Philip in the command ship while making a cycle around the object ready for battle.
Not long after a large amount of animals exit the surrounding forest at running speed the moment that the animals are in view the Spartans give the order to open fire the troops waste no time in firing their snipers to kill as many as they can before they close enough for their rifles to kill them.
The bodies of animals begin to pile up but the animals ignore this and continue making their way towards the object once the animals get close enough the troopers as well as the Spartan ls switch to their rifles before continuing the slaughter yet still the animals keep coming as they get even close they switch to the shotguns while trying to avoid the attacks of the animals a few troopers got injured but as the animals were about to deal the finishing blow fights came swooping down shooting the animals while a large dropship descends Infront of the Spartans dropping some tanks and excavators without wasting time the Spartans board the tanks and begin firing at the animals at this point the animals seem to snap out of whatever was causing them to attack up on seeing the bidies of their comrades began to run away causing the spartans to sigh in relief.
After the animals had left another dropship began to descend this dropship however had a large container this container blocks all kinds of radiation as for how they knew the size of the object Philip up on receiving the information of the object he had his ship trying to scan the object and he was lucky enough that ot actually worked giving him the size of the object not waisting time he had the small production center on board his ship to build a container the same one coming down with the dropship once the object was dug up it was put in the container once the container was closed all teams around the planet report that the animals have lost thier aggression.
