Gerhard Stahl and Karl von Schlafenberg are staying in the Herschel secondary bridge. Stahl browses throught the work logs in a communication console, which now works more like a note pad for the Chefingenieur. He activates the large construction coordination hologram showing up the frontal part of the Admiral's flagship and nearly complete laser drilling device. Front side of the cruiser no longer looks like a giant green tumour as during the first construction phase. Typical shapes and lines are slowly returning back to the frame of the Herschel. It's Stahl's time to summarize all of the boring routine work of the last twenty five hours and compress it into like five minutes, making a report to von Schlafenberg.
"Herr Admiral, the work wents as intended and we are no longer behind the plan" "Gut gut Herr Stahl, can you tell me what is this?" He comes to the hologram and points at a thick cable comming directly from the MOX nuclear power reactor of the Herschel to the previous position of various sensor systems. "Ja Herr Admiral, several days ago, we had a situation.. Power network which was previously bringing electricity to the communication and sensors were far to enough when it comes to supporting the laser. It would take hours to dig inside the Münster module without the cable and create at least something what would be called a hole." "How big hole?" "If successful, the U.L.D.D. will be able to make a seven meter wide tunnel hole within one minute" "Haven't I told you how small I feel when walking through the extraction corridor? It's good that you have made it this massive, who knows what will we encounter in the module?!" Karl underlines his last sentence with a smile under his dense moustache. "Nothing is an issue for the Black Legion troopers Herr Admiral" "Exactly, this is why they will be the ones going into that thing, the best of the best" "Shall I call for the Legion Oberst sir?" "Nein, take care of the laser. Herr Oberst is my concern. If you need me, call for me or come to the main bridge" Karl smiles at Stahl and leaves the secondary bridge with the hologram showing half-done laser behind.
Karl opens an internal facility-wide channel, types in some passwords allowing him to choose one particular communication channel under the BLACK security level protection and calls for the Oberst of the Black Legion, ground troops rumored to be one of the hardest and most skilled in the whole sector. "This is Karl von Schlafenberg to Oberst Wulfrik Wolfmann, report to me on the Herschel bridge, over" No response comes back to Karl like a boomerang as a high ranked man like Karl would expect and prefer. Instead, Wolfmann himself shows on the bridge few minutes later.
With a serious look on his face, Wolfmann says: "Hier I am Herr Admiral, I believe that I know why did you call for me" "Really, why would I call for you Herr Oberst?.. Want a cup of coffee?" Karl points his left hand to the elevator leading to the ship kitchen. "Nein danke. You want us to break into the module right?" "Not literally break into, we will drill an entrance using a laser.. I believe you know. Your troops will enter the module, restore the artificial gravity systems to some reasonable degree and save as many of the contents as possible" "Nothing we wouldn't make sir" "Gut, get your Legionäre ready, use middle-force assault gear because... Not even I know what is inside, and if I knew it, I would told you" "Verstanden Admiral, I will put together the best soldiers on the facility" "Do it, you have two days for it"
