Three months wasn't enough for Rhodes to earn much system gold solely by relying on the Monster Ranch or the Emperor's Avatar among the Grey Knights. So, he needed to go out on a hunt, hoping to gather more system gold for unexpected needs.
The Terra Expedition required him to deal with two Chaos Primarchs at once—Magnus and Fulgrim. Soon, even Mortarion might show up to join the ss.
Rhodes himself couldn't leave Macragge, as he still needed to develop his three star systems. But his monster army could! At the Monster Ranch, Golza had already absorbed enough fla energy to evolve into Fla Golza. With Bemstar, Red King, lba, Guigass, and filas, the planet's defenses were more than adequate.
To deal with Tyranids, long-range attackers or chanical units were best. On his side, the advanced mothership fortress, the Iron Giant, and the newly upgraded King Joe robot were all at peak strength.
Plus, he had Boss King Joe, cha Ace, cha Seven, and the invincible Iron God Empera—each one a formidable force against the Tyranids.
The more Rhodes thought about it, the more feasible this plan seed. He could even farm a million gold off the Tyranids and upgrade the second Pedan mothership.
Rhodes imdiately contacted filas to inquire about the Monster-Ork Ranch planet's status and told filas he was considering a Phase 4 psychic upgrade.
"Master, with and a few bio-monsters here, it's enough.
The next batch of orks needs the planet to recover a bit before they'll grow.
If you upgrade my psychic powers to Phase 4, I could probably handle all the orcs on the planet alone," filas replied.
Over the past month, that tal skeleton hadn't shown up to cause trouble. After several defeats, it seed he'd learned his lesson—or maybe Rhodes' two bait monsters had satisfied his collector's itch, and now he was busy admiring his new collection.
"Good. I need all your chanical monsters transferred here. You and the bio-monsters defend the ranch.
In three months, co to and pretend to be my subordinate.
You might face a powerful psychic Primarch, so I hope your psychic powers can suppress him," Rhodes said.
This ti, Rhodes didn't want to end up like in canon—captured and imprisoned by Blackheart Huron alongside Guilliman. If Abaddon dared interfere again, Rhodes would wipe him out. After all, that guy had a Blackstone Fortress—a super-advanced weapon that could blow up a star if the three of them worked together.
"Don't worry, Master! My psychic powers will win against any enemy," filas promised.
Every psychic upgrade was a qualitative leap; his powers were formidable!
"When you co here, I'll arrange for a new powerful monster to take your place."
"There's no need, Master. The orks on this planet won't mature for another six months. If I leave for a few months,
and you reclaim all the bio-monsters, there'll only be so immature ork fungi left.
Even if that tal skeleton cos, he won't have any interest here.
Besides, no one else but is good at defending against him, especially among the chanical monsters," filas explained.
Rhodes' monsters weren't enough yet. Though there were 100 war model King Joe robots, they were mothership-bound and couldn't fight far from the ship—so no support here.
Plus, against Necrons, ordinary tal robots are countered—Necrons have many ways to paralyze machines. Last ti, cha Ace, King Joe, and the Iron Giant were all disabled by them. If not for filas's psychic powers, the enemy would've succeeded.
Only beings with special powers like filas could deal with Necrons, so filas shared his findings with Rhode.
"I see! From now on, no more chanical monsters on your planet.
In three months, I'll remote-recall all monsters. Once Terra's campaign is over, you'll return to the ranch." Rhodes agreed.
filas was right. Why try to guard against thieves every day? Just take away all the valuable monsters and robots, leaving nothing to steal! If the Necron liked, he could have the immature ork fungi!
Using a million system gold, Rhodes upgraded filas to Phase 4 psychic powers.
This ti, filas's psychic abilities were even stronger, able to immobilize living creatures. Telekinesis, gigantification, elental control, cosmic energy, teleportation—all greatly enhanced. His power soared!
If that Collectible King showed up again, he'd be taught a lesson for coveting Rhodes' monsters.
After finishing with filas, Rhodes spent his remaining million system gold on a hundred draws from the mid-tier system shop.
Though this was for the Tyranids, Rhodes didn't choose chanical monsters—he had enough firepower. What he lacked were unique talents, so he opted for aliens. The system flashed with golden light—110 gold boxes appeared, bursting open, revealing monster shards.
Rhodes received 140 monster shards, with many boxes yielding double rare shards. Half were alien shards, and finally, the one he'd longed for—Dinsional Yapoolian, the expert in super beast creation. Seeing the completed Yapoolian set, Rhodes was moved—finally, he'd got him!
He hadn't drawn Yapoolian before, but his creations—cha Ace, Dinsional Killer, and the Super Beast Notebook—had been of great help. Now, the real deal was here. Rhodes imdiately synthesized and created the Dinsional Yapoolian.
Giant Dinsional Yapoolian—50 ters tall, 82,000 tons, the heaviest monster Rhodes had ever summoned, even heavier than the original form of Dark Giant Dalam.
Using his teleportation bracelet, Rhodes returned to his mothership and summoned the gigantic Yapoolian in his secret training room.
A flash of red light, and a fifty-ter-tall, spiked, bizarre-looking red alien appeared.
"Thank you, master, for pulling from the depths of death," the massive Yapoolian said, shrinking to a two-ter-tall human form and kneeling before Rhodes.
Like other aliens, Yapoolians could easily disguise themselves as humans.
"Yapoolian, I've been looking forward to eting you.
I've obtained many of your inventions—your lab notes, cha Ace, and especially the Ace Killer, which helped a lot," Rhodes said, patting Yapoolian's shoulder.
"Master, you have my Ace Killer! That's my masterpiece. They can absorb beams, an ability unique to our kind.
The Super Beast Notebook is a hand-copied manual I sold, but so fusion thods are incomplete.
As for cha Ace, that was just a rough prototype," Yapoolian replied.
Ace Killer was his pride, the Notebook decent, but cha Ace was just a test subject, ant to be destroyed.
"Haha, your race's skills are legendary. I've made two super beast fusions—Bemstar Golza, and Red King Miklas. Both are being cultivated and should be ready soon," Rhodes said.
Balt and Zett had been working on the super beast project, but now with Yapoolian himself, he could take charge.
"You found the right person, Master.
Super beasts are my specialty. Bemstar is a fine subject. I even made a monster called Black Pigeon on Earth using Bemstar's genes.
The Red King-Miklas fusion is also a good idea, but fast synthesis requires my super beast fusion machine.
Without it, you can only make bio-super beasts, not those using dinsional energy or conceptual powers," Yapoolian explained.
Other aliens learned the technique from him; he even sold the full super beast thod to Magma aliens.
