Field Report: Omicron interaction with "Bounty Hunters"
Author: Dr. Shinji Kano, Zoner Scientist
Date: 15.07.835
Location: Omicron Pi
Cayran San ...
I went to Omicron Pi for continuing the researches after the "Entity" Encounter, Thinking there gonna be some hints around, at my arrival there was some people :
A freelancer Named "Lazurith"
AI unit "Overseer" and also "Theta" was here to hide
2 and after 3 Bounty hunter under the Aegis| company : Omen, Bullet and Ashton.Wodd
Let's say those "Barbaric" Bounty Hunter were chasing the "Overseer" seems someone put a bounty on it. On a AI .... Bakayaro, the "Overseer" was standing and remain silent until those Bounty Hunter started to threaten it to destroy ... Until they did ...
I tried to calm the situation, saying i personally mandated those AI for research purposes, it was a lie of course, and i didn't precise wich AI honestly, but that was the only thing i had in mind for trying to save it, but they destroyed it. But what came after was beyond imagination and "brainless". They tried to intimidate/Threaten to destroy me/and dared to say that the Leadership, Begged them to defend our Station ! Fuzakeruna ! who they think they are ?! After i jumped back to Delta, i had a malfunction and my ship went Dark i couldn't communicate nor receiving their transmission, they left after.
Before that, they said they will send an invoice of a sum of 100k credits for sparring my life, what a Joke they are ... i just wanted to protect those AI ... those idiotic humans calling them "junk metal" was ... unbearable to hear that, but once they started to disrespect you, i couldn't stand iy anymore and i stood my ground. Did i do wrong ? Maybe ... i just thought that was the good thing to do ...
If they gonna send that invoice, i'll pay. But i'm disgusted by those people. I'll provide the picture i took on the Overseer destruction and the blackbox with the transmissions during the encounter.
I deeply apology if it made Phoenix in a uncomfortable position. I guess i have to buy some cupcakes for Karen

[14.07.2025 21:17:39] Aegis|Ashton.Wood: Majority of the scrap is just scrap.
[14.07.2025 21:17:59] Lazurith: This ain't like snatching someone else's pod.
[14.07.2025 21:18:05] Aegis|Ashton.Wood: This isn't a human.
[14.07.2025 21:18:07] (\^/)Muses: hmm well hello there
[14.07.2025 21:18:15] Lazurith: Hey.
[14.07.2025 21:18:45] Aegis|Ashton.Wood: Seems like the toaster ain't cooperating or giving anything.
[14.07.2025 21:18:49] (\^/)Muses: lot of people here, what's going on ?
[14.07.2025 21:18:55] Aegis|Omen: Thankfully, the Core will pay us regardless.
[14.07.2025 21:19:04] Aegis|Ashton.Wood: So will the Rheinlanders.
[14.07.2025 21:19:07] Lazurith: The Core? I thought the Rheinlanders were your contractors.
[14.07.2025 21:19:08] Aegis|Ashton.Wood: After all the contract does say kill it.
[14.07.2025 21:19:15] Lazurith: Are you telling me there's a second bounty on the same target?
[14.07.2025 21:19:19] Aegis|Omen: We have relationships in many places.
[14.07.2025 21:19:30] (\^/)Muses: wait, a bounty ? on who ?
[14.07.2025 21:19:40] Aegis|Ashton.Wood: On that heap of junk.
[14.07.2025 21:19:52] THR-Overseer.Unit-42-F: :|"If" you act in aggression|:-:|"We will act in Self Defense"|:
[14.07.2025 21:20:07] (\^/)Muses: wait there is a bounty on a AI ship ?
[14.07.2025 21:20:10] (\^/)Muses: that's make no sence
[14.07.2025 21:20:29] Lazurith: No, no. It makes enough sense.
[14.07.2025 21:20:35] (\^/)Muses: Why tho ?
[14.07.2025 21:20:40] Aegis|Omen: We don't care much about what "makes sense". We're here to do our jobs.
[14.07.2025 21:20:41] Lazurith: Rheinlanders.
[14.07.2025 21:20:55] Lazurith: They've put up the bounty. And these gentlemen are here to collect.
[14.07.2025 21:20:57] Aegis|Bullet: Greetings, gentlemen.
[14.07.2025 21:21:00] Aegis|Ashton.Wood: Bullet.
[14.07.2025 21:21:03] Aegis|Omen: Good to see you.
[14.07.2025 21:21:05] Lazurith: But there's a little... problem with the plan here.
[14.07.2025 21:21:13] Aegis|Ashton.Wood: Stand by for now.
[14.07.2025 21:21:19] Aegis|Ashton.Wood: The plan is simple.
[14.07.2025 21:21:24] Aegis|Ashton.Wood: Really.
[14.07.2025 21:21:26] Lazurith: Sir - if I may.
[14.07.2025 21:21:34] Aegis|Ashton.Wood: This thing hasn't said anything.
[14.07.2025 21:21:35] Lazurith: Can I remind you of... where you are right now?
[14.07.2025 21:22:02] Lazurith: Omicron Pi - this place, somewhere, somehow, holds a ton of other toasters like this little fella.
[14.07.2025 21:22:03] Aegis|Ashton.Wood: I know full well where we are, that has no consequence to me or mine.
[14.07.2025 21:22:20] (\^/)Muses: i wouldn't be so sure if i were you Bounty hunter
[14.07.2025 21:22:23] Lazurith: So - it stands to reason, that maybe it might've just... y'know, transferred all of its data already.
[14.07.2025 21:22:35] Lazurith: You know, the same data you've set out to snatch out in the first place?
[14.07.2025 21:22:36] Aegis|Omen: Then we have nothing to lose by killing it and sending its remains to the Core.
[14.07.2025 21:22:47] Aegis|Ashton.Wood: Doesn't work like that.
[14.07.2025 21:22:50] Aegis|Omen: These toasters are bountied Sirius-wide.
[14.07.2025 21:23:09] Aegis|Ashton.Wood: But.
[14.07.2025 21:23:12] (\^/)Muses: also wich one has the bounty ? Overseer?
[14.07.2025 21:23:13] Lazurith: Sure enough.
[14.07.2025 21:23:15] Aegis|Ashton.Wood: Since you've given me the idea.
[14.07.2025 21:23:17] Aegis|Omen: However, if this little asshole would give us what our OTHER clients are looking for, it would spare him his life.
[14.07.2025 21:23:18] Aegis|Ashton.Wood: Bullet.
[14.07.2025 21:23:25] Aegis|Ashton.Wood: Go chase that other thing.
[14.07.2025 21:23:53] Lazurith: Yeah, good luck with that.
[14.07.2025 21:24:20] Aegis|Ashton.Wood: Omen, blast it. We'll see what the Rheinlanders pay for his junk.
[14.07.2025 21:24:27] Aegis|Omen: Sure.
[14.07.2025 21:24:27] Lazurith: Alright - gentlemen, gentlemen. If you wish to tear this thing to pieces, so be it.
[14.07.2025 21:24:34] Lazurith: But - you ain't getting the data you were looking for.
[14.07.2025 21:24:40] Aegis|Omen: You could have been nice, toaster.
[14.07.2025 21:24:42] Aegis|Omen: Now you pay.
[14.07.2025 21:24:59] (\^/)Muses: HOLD ON !
[14.07.2025 21:25:02] Lazurith: Fellas, that's a little unfair.
[14.07.2025 21:25:05] Lazurith: Two on one?
[14.07.2025 21:25:11] Aegis|Omen: Life isn't fair, Freelancer.
[14.07.2025 21:25:15] Aegis|Omen: You're welcome to help him.
[14.07.2025 21:25:17] Lazurith: C'mon. It's not like you're fighting a friggin' Nomad over here.
[14.07.2025 21:25:37] Lazurith: And no, thanks. I'm good.
[14.07.2025 21:25:43] Aegis|Omen: Then shut the fuck up.
[14.07.2025 21:25:57] (\^/)Muses: STOP IT RIGHT NOW BOUNTY HUNTER !
[14.07.2025 21:26:00] Lazurith: You weren't the one I was talking to, sir.
[14.07.2025 21:26:03] Aegis|Omen: You have no business, Zoner.
[14.07.2025 21:26:08] (\^/)Muses: Actually i Do
[14.07.2025 21:26:08] Aegis|Omen: Stay out of itl
[14.07.2025 21:26:34] (\^/)Muses: i mandated those AI to help with my researches
[14.07.2025 21:26:42] Lazurith: Well, now they're killing it.
[14.07.2025 21:26:57] Aegis|Omen: Unfortunately, our contract-at-hand takes precendence.
[14.07.2025 21:26:58] (\^/)Muses: so if you destroy them, then you disturb our Work
[14.07.2025 21:27:06] Lazurith: You can protest, if you want. But they're gonna jump you with all they've got.
[14.07.2025 21:27:09] Aegis|Omen: You can find another toaster, Lazurith says there's plenty out here after all.
[14.07.2025 21:27:10] Aegis|Bullet: Quit yapping, both of you.
[14.07.2025 21:27:31] (\^/)Muses: you don't actually understand how AI works
[14.07.2025 21:27:40] (\^/)Muses: for you its just piece of junk
[14.07.2025 21:27:58] (\^/)Muses: but for us its a valuable assets for research purposes
[14.07.2025 21:28:04] Lazurith: Well, too late.
[14.07.2025 21:28:09] Lazurith: They don't really care, I'm afraid.

Subject: Success on the modified Fearless ZCV-Bululu
Hello Daniel,
I'm back from vacation now. It wasn't exactly relaxing, but it was worth it!
The tests on the ZCV-Bululu are now complete.
I gained valuable experience patrolling with Lieutenant Alex Russel from the 34th Hades Brigade.
The number of Solaris turrets was reduced from six to four to free up two slots for a flak turret, which can defend against torpedoes, and a pulse cannon, which can disable the shields of smaller caps.
Further tests showed that the pulse cannon was ultimately superfluous because the Desolator Missiles used against the snubs also effectively disabled the shields of smaller caps. Therefore, the pulse cannon was replaced with a second flak turret to defend against incoming torpedoes from all directions.
There were a few encounters with smaller Corsair formations that ended disastrously for them.
ZCV-Bululu is a real force against snubcrafts, and its strength is evident in the way it takes down its opponents. It also can defend itself against smaller capital vessels.
The prototype will remain with Militant Zoner groups in the Omicrons for the time being and will be transferred to the Phoenix fleet at a later date. However, the Phoenix fleet has access to the cruiser's resources at any time.
By the way, I saw Karen this morning, and she has really blossomed like a fresh flower. Is there a particular reason for this?

Subject: Emergency call of a pirated Freelancer transport vessel in Omicron Theta
Loveliest Karen,
Zoner units received an emergency call today from a Freelancer transport ship at the base Corfu. It requested assistance because it had been pirated by an unknown ship in Omicron Theta near the jump hole to Omega-41.
The Zoner units arrived too late; all that remained were parts of the wreckage, an escape pod with a seriously injured pilot, and the ship's black box.
The pilot is currently in a coma on the intensive care and has not yet been able to be questioned.
The evaluation of the black box can be found in the attachment.
Of course, no one should be accused for the time being, but the evidence from the black box weighs heavily.
Might we should reconsider doing business with the Individual in question until the case has been fully clarified.
Especially please don't marry him, if he want's to put a ring on your finger.
He might steals your life (and your wallets) and pirates you.
