Harem In The Intergalactic Apocalypse

Chapter 245 Get Along

After a brief explanation, I found out that Gornars were good at building things, and Gobbaldopedri was a great mech pilot that had his own special mech. I decided that Gobbles was better because he had a strange pouch like a kangaroo that seemed to be a bottomless pit that could hold anything he could fit in the pouch hold that also stretched quite a bit. He could also pee a stream of hot acid that was really useful for melting things.

"I have never seen anyone put so much trust into a creature they just met," Mox said, bemused, as Gobbles jumped on my back, but the moment that he did, I poked thorns into him and ran a full scan on him. The info was almost identical to what he had told me, and now I could tell if the creature had tried to lie to me.

"I don't just trust anything. Like how you will be, Gobbles can't lie to me now or do anything that will hurt me or the others. I am not looking to control people unless I have to. I am not in a position to trust anything," I explained, and Mox nodded but then reached a hand out to me.

"I would sooner have you fully trust me, so you can do whatever you did to the white rat," Mox said, and Gobbles made a growling hiss noise, but I ignored him and took Mox's hand.

Instantly, I was assaulted by thoughts of distrust and betrayal, but I forced my way through them until I saw his memories. He had been betrayed in the past by people that he thought were friends, so it made sense why he wouldn't fully trust anyone. Even so, there were people that he did trust to an extent, like Gobbles here. In the end, Mox was just a victim of circumstance that had happened to grow a really hard head because of it all.

I closed my eyes and slowly started to change Mox. I took more time with the big guy than Gobbles because I was making him more compatible with humans or what they were going to become. I also gave him something that had been stolen from him in a sense. The body was not normal; even though it was a Gideon, I was confused with the way his body was set up. I was not sure if it was something that all Gideons had or just Mox.

It was like he was hardwired, to tell the truth, but his other emotions had been restricted, and there were almost no pleasure sensory receptors. That meant that he just did everything for the sake of doing it, but there were some pleasure sensors connected to his hearing, but it was also connected to his brain. I assumed that was so that he enjoyed hearing Alpha's voice.

The first thing I did was add more emotions to him and increase his reaction time a little, so he wouldn't be so reckless in battle. Then I increased his loyalty to me, but not to the point where he would be a mindless puppet like my clones were. In the end, Mox was still going to be himself for the most part; he would just be less likely to turn on me.

I wasn't really sure how much better I was than Alpha, but I knew that what I was doing was much different than what the golden demon was. I was trying to control people, but that was so everyone lived peacefully and could have fun or fulfilling lives. Maybe it was just my excuse, but I didn't really care about what was coming.

"There you go," I said as I finished and released his hand, "You should start feeling better soon."

Mox nodded but then looked down at Gobbles, who seemed content on my back for now, and sighed. "I don't trust that thing as far as I can throw it."

Gobbles made an offended noise but didn't say anything else, but then Mox looked down between his legs, but he was covered by my armor.

"What did you do to me? Why do I have something between my legs?! Is this some kind of a joke?!" Mox demanded, and I looked at Gobbles, and then we both burst out laughing. "Do not laugh at me! What is the meaning of this?!"

Mox was getting angry now, but I just put a hand on his shoulder and shook my head. "Relax, Mox, it is nothing bad. I just gave you something that was stolen from you."

"What do you mean?" He asked.

"Well, you never had one, to begin with, but I gave you a reproductive organ," I explained, and Mox looked like he was going to say that he didn't need it, but I put a hand up. "It is also for pleasure. You know, when you used to hear Alpha's voice, it would make you happy, right?" I asked, and Mox frowned at me but then looked away from me.

"How could you know that?" Mox asked after finally turning back to me.

"It was programmed into you. I actually expected to find mutainium inside you, but there was none. Your emotions were also mixed up, so I evened them back out to what I would consider normal. I don't know if that is the right choice, and it will take some getting used to, but I think that you will enjoy it. The feeling you will get from that organ I gave you will make Alpha's voice feel like a cruel joke when you feel the true pleasure from release," I explained, but it seemed to only confuse the Gideon even more. "It is something that you will figure out with time. For now, we are going to head deeper into the base and get to where the Extradimensional Containment Chamber is. I need to get a scan on it and then figure out how it works."

"And what am I going to do?" Mox asked, and Gobbles hopped off my back and grabbed one of Mox's guns.

"You are going to protect us," I said as Gobbles handed the gun to Mox, who looked at it like it was a snake. "Guns are not hard to use. Just point and shoot."

Mox rolled his eyes, still looking unsure about the whole thing, but he took the gun anyway before we started walking again.

"I don't know what I am going to protect you from. You are clearly much stronger than I am," Mox said as we left the room.

"There are still some things running around up ahead, but most of them are hiding from something bigger. I need to put all my concentration on the containment unit, so you and Gobbles are going to watch my back, so I don't have to keep breaking my attention from the task. I will have some clones working with me, so you two are going to be in charge of keeping the monsters away," I explained, and Mox shrugged as we walked, but I stopped, and he turned back to me as Gobbles jumped on my shoulder, pulling out a small gun. "The only thing is that you can't kill them. You can injure them, but killing is forbidden. I just want you to corner whatever is attacking, and I will take care of the rest."

"You have got to be kidding me?! I have guns and sharp weapons! How am I supposed to do that?!" Mox demanded, but Gobbles jumped from me to him, and Mox started to freak out. "Get this thing off of me!"

"He is just trying to help. Gobbles is going to be your partner, so you need to learn how to work with him," I said as the two of them wrestled on the ground, but eventually Mox got control and hoisted Gobbles up by the scruff of his neck, but Gobbles bit his hand that was uncovered, and then jumped for Mox's gun and started to tear it apart.

"What the hell is wrong with this thing?!" Mox yelled as he dropped the gun to grab his other hand, and Gobbles kept tearing at the weapon, but he was also using some other tools at an almost blinding speed as Mox Glared at me. "This thing is a wild animal! Look what it is doing to my weapon!"

I was watching, but I could tell that Gobbles was doing some kind of upgrade.

"Just give him a chance. I think he is fixing your weapon so you will be able to do the job that I asked you," I explained as Mox shook his bleeding hand off to the side.

"I don't know how you do it, but this thing is going to be the death of me," Mox grumbled as Gobbles finally finished with the gun and handed it back to him.

The Gideon looked at it for a moment before holstering it and then started walking again, but I stayed where I was for a moment longer as Gobbles looked up at me. "What?" The creature asked innocently, but I just shook my head before following after Mox.

"You should try to use words, and you might get along better with the big guy," I suggested, but Gobbles just shrugged at me and then ran to catch up with Mox, who he jumped on, making the Gideon freak out again, and I sighed.
