14-Meeting

Rogue slowly opened her eyelids, revealing the Golden Amber Eyes. She looked around and found herself in a Wasteland. It wasn't the peaceful grassland. Typhon then appeared right beside Rogue and also noticed the Wasteland. Rogue had a serious expression and began walking towards the Small Hill in the distance. The Two of them climbed the Small Hill and finally had a good picture of the Wasteland. Rogue turned her gaze in the distance and found many Monsters waiting for her. It seemed that the Monsters were expecting her to be mind-controlled.

"It's time to meet them," Rogue said with her soft voice as Typhon nodded. The Plan was to meet them and forced them to be under Rogue. They would abandon the Hivemind and be Rogue's Personal Army. It would be hard as the Monsters were too deep in the Hivemind Influence. The only monsters Rogue could talk to would probably be the Hero Type Monster. The Two walked towards the Monster in the distance without fear.

While walking towards the Monsters, Rogue had an Idea within her Mind. It would probably help her in the negotiation and if a fight broke out. She then stopped walking and looked at Typhon right in the eyes. "Typhon, Give me all Basic Fighting Techniques and Intermediate Fighting Techniques," Rogue said as Typhon was surprised at what she heard. Rogue's Ability to download data from Books was useful. Although her body wouldn't copy the Fighting Techniques with ease, The only thing that she needed was Information.

"Are you sure about that, Master? The Fighting Techniques might be complicated, and Master's Ability would be overused." Typhon didn't want Rogue to Download the Fighting Techniques all at once. It was better to bite what you can chew, or else you would get choke if you go beyond. "Don't underestimate me. I know my limits, so it should be good to release the fighting techniques and give them to me."

"Well, if that is what Master wants..." Typhon couldn't help but worry for her Master's wellbeing. No matter how Rogue acted like a Mature Krieg. She was still a 5-year-old Girl. Children weren't supposed to be dealing with adult business. Rogue was different as she could easily rival adults and deal with the problem with efficiency. A Lot of books appeared right behind Typhon. It was Thousands of Fighting Techniques within the Krieg Archive.

"This will take a while to learn." Rogue stretched her body and looked at the Books behind Typhon. Typhon then walked right beside Rogue to not obstruct her vision about the books. Rogue would always read the book while downloading it. It was a good thing to do as it made the Downloading speed faster, but she didn't have enough time to do that. Rogue would have to download all of them at once.

The Energy within her body was getting stronger. It was slowly adapting from Monster Influence. The Blood of the Monster probably fused on her body. She didn't know what would happen, but the energy within her body was growing at a fast speed. She wasn't even absorbing the Energy around her as she was currently in the Chamber within the Preservation Capsule. Looking at the Books, Rogue began her Download.

She could feel the energy within her body seeping out at a fast speed. The Download Process began as the Notification about it echoed deep within her mind. The Books got listed on the Notification, and the list was quite long. Rogue didn't bother reading it and focus on downloading the Books. Long ago, After discovering Energy. Rogue could easily download anything without touching it. It was an interesting ability as the only thing she needed to do was to look from afar.

The Downloading Process was currently on the way, and Rogue sighed as she looked at the distance. Typhon was right beside her, guarding her in case something happened. This Wasteland was beyond the Virtual World as it was currently under the Hivemind's influence. There was a reason why the Grassland changed into a Wasteland. Typhon could only control a small part of it.

The two of them stayed for a while until Rogue felt a giant headache within her mind. She took too much knowledge from the books, and the headache was a lot worse than before. Typhon noticed that Rogue's brain activity was spiking. She understood that it came from Rogue's ability, but the current brain activity was 10x worse than before. "Master, your brain activity is overloaded. Stop using your ability."

Rogue didn't say a single thing. She closed her eyes and looked at her Awakened Ability. Digitilized was calmly within her without any problem. It didn't have any consciousness, and it didn't put any limits within it. The Rules of the Digitilized was calm and not strict. Rogue could easily download many things at a fast speed if she knew of it beforehand. She already mastered one of the fighting techniques, so downloading other fighting techniques would be faster.

The Brain Activity spike within Rogue slowly calmed down, and Typhon sighed in relief. Rogue opened her eyes and had a smirk plastered on her face. She looked at Typhon and saw a flick hitting her forehead. Rogue couldn't react and felt pain for the first time within this World. She stared at Typhon while putting her hands on her Forehead. "You shouldn't do this again." Typhon hugged Rogue as the Brain Activity spike might make Rogue braindead.

"I'm sorry..." Rogue apologizes as she knew that she was in the wrong. Unlike before, She wasn't alone roaming around Reality. She would meet many people like Typhon, and she understood that she needed to change her ways. Being careless about her body would probably be the first thing she needed to change. But that would be hard to do as to rise in power. Was to force her body to be in danger.

Typhon smiled and shook her head. "I'm sorry for going too far, Master," Typhon said with her calm tone. Rogue then looked around and spoke. "I'm finished downloading the knowledge. The only thing I need to do is to master them." Hearing Rogue's words, Typhon nodded, and the Books disappeared. The two of them walked towards their Original Path to meet the Monsters.

After a while of walking through the Wasteland, The two of them finally arrived at the Monster's Area. Rogue looked around with curiosity and found many Monsters staring at her. The Monsters had the same sizes, which were surprising as she expected them to be Buildings Tall. Most of them were rather the same size as Elephants. It was big but not too big. "Bring me to your Leader," Rogue spoke with a cold voice.

The Monsters stopped blocking the way and gave way to Rogue and Typhon. They walked through the Path given to them and finally found a Monster that was the Size of a High-rise Building. It was the Hero-Type Monster. It was the strongest monster within the Planet Exodus. The Hero-Type Monster stared at Rogue and noticed that there was a problem with her. She wasn't completely under the Hivemind's influence.

*This isn't the first time a Krieg managed to pierce through the Hivemind...* The Hero-Type Monster spoke to Rogue. Its voice was Ancient and Distorted. It would be horrifying for a normal human in Rogue's old world, but this new reality had many creatures like this. Rogue would have to get used to it. Rogue walked in front of the Monster and stared at it right in the eye. No fear was hiding in her Golden Amber Eyes as she faced the Monster.

*What do you want, Little Krieg? Why do you want to meet me?* The Hero-Type Monster asked. It was curious how a Little Girl could act like this. It already gained information about toddlers, and this wasn't any part of it. The information might not be complete, so there was no need to blame the Information as no one can know everything in this Universe. "I want all of you to join my Army."

*Why would we join your Little Army? We monsters have roamed the Cosmos, and there is an indefinite number of us within the stars.* The Hero-Type Monster said. It was the truth... There was no reason for the monsters to join an Army with a Little Girl as its Commander. Rogue understood such a fact, but she had a trump card within her mind. She currently has a Part of the Hivemind. They weren't connected to the Main Hivemind, so there was no need to fear for information to scatter.

"You're correct, but have you forgotten that the Krieg Race is still within the Cosmos. You might have noticed the disappearance of the Core Imperium, but you still have no idea the weapons stored within the Colonies." Rogue smiled as she places one of her cards in front of the monster. It would probably interest the Monster. The Monster looked at Rogue and asked. *Weapons?*

"That is right!!! Weapons... The Krieg is an advanced species that studies everything that crosses its path. The Monsters and the Undead have been within its path for many years, They Colonies might not have the technology of the Core Imperium, but I assure you. Wiping a race from reality would be something they could easily do." Rogue smiled as the Monster's interest in the Weapon grew.

"The Monsters are all around the Cosmos. The only way to defeat them is to use the Warp and plant a bomb within it. The Bomb would be a Semi-Warp Bomb. It would take all the monster's DNA and turned all of it into targets. The Bomb would then exploded in the Warp, which would spread all over the Cosmos. It wouldn't kill anything other than the Monsters." Rogue explained the Weapon that could kill all the monsters.

How Rogue managed to learn about such things from the Book about Monsters. It talked about the ways to kill all of them. The only reason why the Krieg didn't do it was that they weren't interested in wiping out the Monsters. The Monsters were special beings like the Krieg. Although they weren't as powerful as the Krieg, They were still a special species within the cosmos.

The Current Colony System of the Krieg wouldn't probably look at them as a Special Species. The Krieg were going extinct, and the Colonies were probably planning to bring down the threats of the simple races in the Cosmos. The Undead and the Monsters would reign all over the Cosmos of the Krieg disappeared, so they plan on building such weapons and prepare for war. Rogue didn't blame them, but the Monster was still a special race.

*Why are you doing this? Isn't this no less of a betrayal?* Never did the monster thought that they would meet a traitor amongst the Krieg ranks. Hearing the words of the Monster, Rogue had a cold expression plastered on her face. Betrayal? Was she betraying the race? Typhon took a peek at Rogue's expression and noticed the cold looked. "The Krieg wouldn't look at it as a Betrayal. They would probably praise Rogue for taming the Monsters and making them her Personal Army." Typhon spoke.

Rogue looked at Typhon and saw Typhon smiling towards her. Rogue smiled and continued the plan. Betrayal was something Rogue didn't want to touch. She was disgusted by it. "To be honest, Even I don't know if it is betrayal, but I can tell you one thing. The Krieg would be happy if their Image is about their Comrade having an Army of Monsters." Rogue said as she remembered the words of the Krieg High-Ranking Officers about their image.

*I see... Well, After scanning through the information you have given. Before being trapped in this place. I already felt their strange activities. If you're correct, then I would be willing to work for you. I entrust my race to you, so I hope you won't disappoint us.* The Monster spoke as Rogue smiled and answered. "I'll bring you race to its full potential."

"Typhon, activate the Warp Field around the Ship," Rogue ordered as the Monsters were currently all around the ship. The Warp Field blocks anything that comes from the Warp. It was a good defense against the bomb. It was one of the best technologies within the Colonies. Unfortunately, The monsters didn't have such things as only machines could operate them.
