If the reports were accurate, this was certainly a very interesting development. Both for the Empire and themselves.
The Initiative hadn’t had much chance to study the technology of Chozo Power Armors in-depth, the one partial sample they’d managed to acquire still proving rather daunting to study even after a decade of dedicated, cautious research.
Still, what little they’d managed to learn had opened up various alternative approaches and innovations in current GDI biotechnology, even helping to cause a breakthrough in their side-research on Inusannon technologies.
And given how incredibly lethal a certain Chozo suit-user was, any further insight regarding Chozo suits was definitely worth finding out about.
And so, off Red went to meet Astrid. Under the guise of a casual visit to the Empire, he’d met with the goddess once again.
“Hey, Astrid. Just thought I’d drop by.” he greeted with a small, friendly wave. “If I may talk to you about a little something? It just cropped up; and I thought you might need to know.”
“I’ve got a bit of time to spare,” Astrid replied with a smile. “So, what’s on your mind?” She was always happy to help her friends out with whatever they needed, after all.
“We’ve had a few quiet reports that some individuals possess some variant of Chozo suits. Given what they’re capable of, I figured you needed to know,“ Red said in a much lower tone.
He wasn’t sure if those individuals belonged to the Empire or not. If they did, he was much less worried. If they weren’t, though…well, that would be trouble. Anyone with Chozo tech posed a risk to trillions of lives if misused or malevolently turned.
“I just wanted to ask if you happen to know anything about these people. Is the Temple of the Glorious Body working on personal-scale Chozo technology?”
