Target Morpheus System
by Marc A. Herren

The fear of the Death Wrestlers of Orontes towards the World Scourge has not decreased in all the millenniums since the first disaster. Clan Mother Syb fears that the World Scourge might be lured by the presence of the Galactics. A seer states that the World Scourge has been stopped recently from refreshing itself, and now looks for new victims. Therefore, in a conversation with Mondra Diamond on the 26th of October, 1469 NGE Syb demands the departure of the Galactics. The Clan Mother grants only a short time extension for the repair of the engines of the CHISHOLM. In the interim they must search for a new shelter. While on the search, the cruiser TUBLIR observes a battle between a fleet of the Quolnäer Keretzen and the spaceships (reminiscent of a praying mantis) of the Tiradeure, a race they have not met up till now. The TUBLIR ends up between the fronts, but is able to escape. It appears that the battle is shifting steadily in the direction of the Morpheus system.

Meanwhile Mondra Diamond tries to define her new relationship with Ramoz. She puts questions about his past to the former feline being, but demands too much of Ramoz with it. He falls into a perpetual state of shock. Then the mathematician Martin Felten presents Mondra a theory that the suicide flash wave of the Quolnäer Keretzen can be absorbed by a certain kind of rock from Orontes. However, to prove this theory would require an experiment with a living representative of this people. The opportunity for this arises shortly after the return of the TUBLIR when the first ships of the two hostile fleets reach the system. Mondra, Sinaid Velderbilt and Felten stealthily approach the wreck of a ship of the Quolnäer Keretzen with the space lens ARCHIMEDES. A crew member is still alive, and the Galactic really are largely protected by the Orontes rock brought by Felten from the injurious mental impulses of the being – but not completely. A much larger amount of the rock would be necessary complete protection. The Galactics must hurry to leave the enemy ship, because its self-destruction mechanism was initiated.

After a period of time, the fighting fleets disappear by themselves – the warning which has been sent out for millenniums by a space fort in the orbit of Orontes has not lost its deterrent effect. A few days later the CHISHOLM leaves the system in peace. On the 12th of November Perry Rhodan arrives at the rendezvous point with the MIKRU-JON, the SICHOU-1 and the KADURA. Ennerhahl also appeared with the other three ships in his light cell. Mondra suddenly receives word that Ramoz has awoken. He wants to speak to Mondra immediately.

2639 - The Green Sun

2639 - The Green Sun
Die grüne Sonne
from Hubert Hansel

Ramoz awakes, but behaves strangely. He speaks incomprehensible words and seems to recognize no one. Ennerhahl’s measurements show that the thorn growing from the eye of the former lynx like being is acting as a transmitter / receiver for pulsing hyperstructures. Ramoz suddenly speaks of a green sun, which limits the search for the possible destination or source of the Hyper-pulses. Two locations come into consideration for this. One is a sun with the expected wave spectrum. The MIKRU-JON and Ennerhahl’s light cell head there. The slower SICHOU-1 and KADURA follow behind. Mikru is fascinated by Quistus . Due to his special talents the Iothone would make a far more suitable pilot than Perry Rhodan. Ramoz, now completely regains consciousness and offers Mondra Diamond an alternative to her previous "vagabond life." Rhodan is not pleased with either.

The flight is interrupted on November 14, 1469 NGE when an emergency call is received. A Xylthe vessel of a type which has not been built anymore, according to Ennerhahl, for seven hundred to eight hundred years, is pushing inexorably into a black hole, while a Tryortan gullet in its environment too. When the MIKRU-JON approaches the ship - it is the PARTOGA, a freighter, loaded with native crystals - there is a para-reality resonance exchange along with temporal phenomena, which causes a crew member named Jeketi to keep experiencing time over and over again, as Rhodan comes on board and then disappears. The PARTOGA is pulled out of the hazardous area with tractor beams.

The MIKRU-JON and the light cell arrive at the green sun on November 17. The surrounding area seems to be completely empty, but Quistus recognizes an eighty-five million kilometer wide warping of the space-time structure. The MIKRU-JON can only penetrate this anomaly, as Rhodan and Quistus work together as pilots of the Obelisk ship at the same time. The interior of the anomaly is saturated with blue Chanda crystals. There, the visitors find thousands of spaceships of various types. Ramoz claims that this is his fleet, and points out the MIKRU-JON to a particular ship. Rhodan and Ramoz are admitted. A voice recognizes Ramoz as authorized to take command of the fleet and speaks with him.

2640 - Splitter der Superintelligenz

Splitter der Superintelligenz
Splinter of the Superintelligence
by Christian Montillon


Upon exiting the anomaly, the RHYLINE is surrounded by spaceships of the Kingdom of Harmony. The situation is hopeless. Alaska Saedelaere and his companions surrender. They fall into the hands of Carmydea Yukk’s twin brother Craton, who commands the huge battleship DRUSALAI. The only card up their sleeve is Eroin Blitzer, who makes himself invisible and had previously stunned Swift, so that he cannot betray him. Craton invites his prisoners to take a captain's dinner. He harbors no fraternal feelings for Carmydea. He goes there purely and simply, to extract information about the resistance movement from her. He does not shrink from torture, as he makes abundantly clear to Carmydea by applying a shocker against her while eating. Even Guard Lieutenant Pridon and Rhizinza Yukk are at his mercy. The former Duchess was being held in a Medo-tank. She is only a shadow of herself.

Since returning from the anomaly Alaska Saedelaere has repeatedly had visions, especially of a doll that embodies Princess Arden Drabbuh from the Cautionary Play. She claimed he was not in danger, and that she would meet him soon. The prisoners are taken to a Drama Theater and meet Melwai Vedikk, the Chancellor of the Kingdom of Harmony. Harmony Guard Uyarı Lydspor is also present. Alaska is treated kindly because TANEDRAR’S arrival is finally imminent, and the superintelligence wants to speak with the Terran. Alaska is led through the Palace. Many living beings are present, and suddenly all of them are filled by a feeling of excitement and euphoria. People rip their clothes off, take off their masks and surrender to an orgy. Each Harmony adherent’s splinter of the superintelligence becomes visible. Alaska feels a presence - TANEDRAR has arrived.

As in his visions, one of the Princess dolls comes to life, animated by the super-intelligence. She promises Alaska that he will understand everything soon, and awards him an Escaran, even though he does not want it. Alaska is still aware of the fact that he is affected, but the feeling of an all-embracing Harmony is getting stronger. The super-intelligence begins to tell the story of its origin ...

2641 - TANEDRARS Arrival

Beitrag von jerrys109 »

Nr. 2641
TANEDRARS Ankunft
TANEDRARS Arrival
by Michael Marcus Thurner

While everyone in the Empire of Harmony provided with an Escaran splinter from TANEDRAR indulge in the ecstasy associated with the Arrival, Alaska Saedelaere is experiencing the original emergence of the super-intelligence in the hyperphysical chaos stricken star island.

Two hundred ninety-three years in the past the relatively new entity NETBURA dominates one of the four galaxies, which has been penetrating another for 9.8 million years. There is a conflict with the entity TAFALLA from one of the neighboring galaxies. TAFALLA’s assisting race, the insectoid Krol, are preparing to conquer NETBURA’s realm. As the entity tries to bring a huge fleet of his own principal aiding race, the Schwanta to safety, they fall into TAFALLA’s trap. The enemy entity appears with an overpowering Krol force and wants to incorporate NETBURA into himself, but then the area is shaken by tremendous space-time quakes. The opponents are separated, so NETBURA can flee and hide in a miniature universe. Both aiding races are killed during this event.

Only two hundred thousand years later NETBURA emerges from his hiding place. A researcher named Lanistar of Breugelt is there and becomes NETBURA’s avatar. The entity reinforces his contact with his aiding race by giving each individual a splinter of herself. More than ten thousand years later NETBURA first encounters two other entities from the other two neighboring galaxies: ARDEN, which sees itself as a female and DRANAT who is always ready for a bit of levity. The three entities, unlike TAFALLA, which also reappears, are peacefully inclined. A merger would be possible, but TAFALLA is reluctant. Finally, NETBURA recognizes the driving force behind the aggressive actions of his archenemy: TAFALLA is afraid.

Over time, the entities grow closer together until it in twelve thousand four hundred years ago the beings merge into a single mental being, which has the status of a superintelligence: TANEDRAR arises. At the same time, however, massive space-time quakes occur again. This event disturbs the merger, and TANEDRAR is influenced by the inner conflict of its thickness concentration. Therefore, the four components of the new superintelligence still think of themselves as independent entities. In the following millennium, the system of giving and taking between TANEDRAR and its aiding races is perfected. The superintelligence feasts on the mental energy of living beings and simultaneously controls them by the splinters. The latter happens on TAFALLA's request. A cult of personality arises around a man named Morrceta from the people of the Lirbal, leading to the general wearing of masks. The origin for this is that it was a protective mask, which the Lirbals had to wear in order to survive on their homeworld. The Empire of Harmony takes on its final form.

Eight thousand seven hundred years ago ritual of arrival and departure arises. One of the four entities is released at regular intervals from the collective to travel around the empire. Through the euphoric feelings connected with the ritual, the sense of togetherness of the aiding races is reinforced. Two thousand years later the kingdom is visited by Renyi Hemdebb, a servant of the higher powers . He knows that TANEDRAR suffers from the fragmentation of its mental substance and the ritual of arrival and departure, and has an offer to make. The one of the Four Who Are One - beginning with TAFALLA - should work on behalf of the higher powers in the multiverse. In return TANEDRAR will receive Sontaron generators from the funds of the higher powers, and Sholoubwa will install and maintain the splinter process and the separation ritual. TANEDRAR agrees to this.

TANEDRAR’s report ends with the comment that matters began deteriorate with the events related to TRYCLAU-3 …

2642 - The Mask Creator

Nr. 2642
The Mask Creator
Der Maskenschöpfer
von Michael Marcus Thurner

Fartokal Ladore is a mask creator. He lived more than ten thousand years ago on Lirbe, the home planet of the Lirbals. To protect against radioactive fallout and the effects of global environmental pollution, Lirbals must wear hermetically sealed clothing and masks. Ladore dies after an unpleasant encounter with a client who is a privileged nobleman, and goes to TANEDRAR. The superintelligence makes him her avatar and releases him into a new life in the following millennia with various orders. He fulfills his first mission in the identity of the inconspicuous technician Morrceta, who disempowered the nobility and led Lirbal to the stars.

After further jobs, for which he is transferred to various guest bodies, Ladore experiences the arrival of Renyi-Hemdebb, whose offer TANEDRAR accepts despite Ladore's warnings. Calmed by the beneficial forces of the Sontaron generators, which make it easier for the superintelligence to absorb the mentality of their helpers, TANEDRAR is not interested in destroying entire planets in the Empire of Harmony through the production of relief supplies for the higher powers. The empire threatens to be bled economically as Sholoubwa, who literally divides himself among the members of his Technogarden and thus can be active in many places at the same time, begins the construction of the forty-eight petals of the Time Rose. When the BOTNETZ is completed, it is transported to the controversial Cosmonucleotide TRYCLAU-3 and activated there in a protracted process. TAFALLA also goes there and Ladore accompanies him.

While there are terrible battles between cobalt blue ship ships of the Cosmocrats and units of the Terminal Column TRAITOR, TAFALLA is sucked inside the Cosmonucleotide. Nega-psiqs infect the entity and convey their gruesome insights into potential futures. TAFALLA fled and returned to TANEDRAR, but had to be expelled, as he threatened to drive his three partners into madness. The "reduced" superintelligence kills the higher powers' envoy and creates the cautionary play of the Lake of Tears as a trap for TAFALLA. Thousands of para-gifted beings remove the negative components from the entity, which is thereby weakened, but also cured. The negative components form a new entity, which is then sent away

When Ladore travels with ARDEN in 1372 NGE, there is almost an encounter with the superintelligence KASSORR, who is currently speaking with a messenger of the higher powers. ARDEN recognizes that he cannot be perceived by the other entities. This allows them to completely hide the Empire of Harmony from the rest of the universe. Nevertheless, TANEDRAR cannot control everything. Anomalies are formed and a superintelligence called QIN SHI seems to secretly seek for a foothold in the empire.

After the end of the story, which was his last assignment, Ladore finally merges with TANEDRAR for good. Then TANEDRAR tells Alaska Saedelaere that he is the perfect person to complete an assignment for her.

2643 TANEDRAR's Puppet

Beitrag von jerrys109 »

Nr. 2643
TANEDRARS Puppe
TANEDRAR’s Puppet
by Christian Montillon

Alaska Saedelaere has heard TANEDRAR’s history and received an Escaran. Therefore he is no longer a stranger in the Empire of Harmony, but a Harmonious, is automatically trusted by the other Escaran bearers and accepted by them as a friend. Vice versa he feels mistrust towards all Unharmonious, even if they were his trusted companions before, like Carmydea Yukk. This becomes clear to the Terran when he is invited to another banquet in the DRUSALAI in which the princess doll enlivened by TANEDRAR takes part. Saedelaere knows that he is being influenced, but cannot completely defend himself against these feelings. TANEDRAR acquits Rhizinza Yukk, who has clearly recovered, of all charges against her. Carmydea brings forward that she had become unharmonious by no fault of her own and, just like the other Jyrescaboros, does not regard herself as an enemy of the empire. TANEDRAR wants to give her the opportunity to rehabilitate herself. Carmydea is to take part in an expedition led by Alaska Saedelaere into the anomaly he had already visited before. Such anomalies were observed at many locations within the four galaxies, but only one still exists because the entity SIL has stabilized it. The empire believes it will be used for an invasion. Therefore, SIL should be removed from the anomaly or be destroyed. For this purpose the RHYLINE is reequipped. Saedelaere is particularly interested in the anomaly when he finds out that it has a connection with the Polyport network. In case of a success the Terran will receive help with his search for Samburi Yura and information about Sholoubwa – in fact two "presents" left by Sholoubwa are installed in the RHYLINE. One of the two big cylinders is a solar bomb of immense destructive strength. The intended purpose of the second aggregate is not known, but as Saedelaere approaches it, the device seems to register his presence (or that of his cell activator chip). In the language of the Mighty the cylinder announces the beginning of a reconfiguration.

The RHYLINE penetrates into the anomaly. Saedelaere first inserts a stopover at the space jet B-SJ-031 which he had already discovered with his first stay in the anomaly. This time he discovers a survivor there – or at least, he succeeds in establishing radio contact with a chef named Endreas Konno. Nevertheless, the man has been dead for a long time. He alone survived the escape from the BASIS and the transfer into the anomaly because he was the only crew member in the space jet at the time caught in a sort of time field. This time field transmits radio messages from the past into the future and vice versa. Konno’s corpse lies in a cabin. He must have spent a long time alone there.

The conversation with SIL turns out to be difficult, because the entity is no longer completely sane. Although the second cylinder, which has an unknown function, activates by itself and causes great pain to SIL, the entity agrees to leave the anomaly with them. The body of the entity is anchored to the RHYLINE and transported outside where it is wrapped in a chain field for safety's sake. The solar bomb is left behind in the anomaly and explodes. As a result it breaks down.

Everyone returns to the DRUSALAI. Saedelaere receives information which should help him to find Sholoubwa, as well as his own ship: the SHEYAR. Chancellor Melwai Vedikk announces that Carmydea will now be the official mediator between TANEDRAR and the Unharmonious. She is to begin negotiations between the Jyrescaboros and TANEDRAR...

2644 The Guerrillas of Terrania

Beitrag von jerrys109 »

No. 2644
Die Guerillas von Terrania
The Guerrillas of Terrania
from Verena Themsen



The Terrans resist the occupation of their home world. Again and again, patrolling Fagesys disappear without a trace. And the unauthorized use of a transit parquet in Terrania is determined. The High Marauder Chossom wants to execute a Terran for each missing Fagesy but Marrghiz discourages him in this and asks for patience. Fydor Riordan, a callous opportunist (and supposedly a distant descendant of Tipa Riordan), who has taken on the leadership of the TLD is to take care of the matter. However, the resistors are difficult to capture because they avoid open struggle and rely on guerrilla tactics. In addition, the various resistance cells do not know each other and act independently - in any case, nothing is known about a joint leadership

On October 12, 1469 NGE, the resistance Cell X formed in the apartment of architect Barisch Ghada, who takes the lead role. Ghada, three other men of his acquaintance and the Matten Willy Snacco get trained by the former TLS agent Sharoun Beffegor. Each of them had lost somebody when the Augurs kidnapped the children of Terra. They are now planning an assassination attempt against Fagesys. They acquire the weapons required from a friend Sharoun’s, the Topsider Chakt-Vachtor, working in Beijing as an antique dealer. On October 23rd, the time arrives. Cell X finds its way to the bridge of the hotel “Terrania Silver Bridge" in the middle of Terrania, in order to attack three armored gliders. The coup threatens to fail, when two more Fagesys unexpectedly appear. Two members of Cell X die and Sharoun is already preparing to die, but a shadowy stranger intervenes and turns the page in favor of the resistance before he disappears again.

Sharoun and her remaining companions escape with the last surviving Fagesy. He is imprisoned in Barisch's apartment and interrogated. Barisch prevents Sharoun from shooting the prisoner and is able to communicate with him. The name of the being is Oachono. From him the Terrans learn for the first time that they are considered thieves who had stolen ALLDAR’s Psi-body, and also that there are Fagesy dissatisfied with the Omnipresent Rearguard. Not all the Fagesys believe in the promise that ALLDAR will return soon. Moreover, by examining a tissue sample from Oachono, it is learned that the Fagesy may be genetically manipulated, artificial creatures.

Through his collection, Riordan picks up the track of Cell X. He is always looking for old coins, and Chakt-Vachtor is one of his suppliers. When Riordan looks at new arrivals with the Topsider, he has his assistant, Ferrone Ve Kekolor with him. The young woman is a weak telepath. She reads Chakt-Vachtor's thoughts and sees a connection to Sharoun. Riordan fears being compromised and murders the Topsider. When Sharoun finds out, she is aware that the service knows about Cell X. A member leaves the group. Sharoun and Barisch get in contact with Urs von Strattkowitz and offer to hand over Oachoni. In return, the child Dweezil Beffegor is to be released. At a second meeting the Secretary of State agrees to the exchange.

The meeting will take place on the 4th of November at the Terrania Zoo, but von Strattkowitz comes alone. It turns out that the whole thing is a trap by Riordan, and the second conversation was probably actually conducted by him. The Fagesys attack. Again, the "Shadow" appears and allows the rebels, as well as Oachono, to escape. Von Strattkowitz is killed in the firefight. This had not been planned, but Riordan is quite satisfied. The TLD chief believes that von Strattkowitz was somehow involved in the matter with the transit parquet. There is something found at the scene where the "Shadow" was lost. It is a component of a non-Terran nano-machine .

This information is kept secret by Riordan when he is called up by Marrghiz. The Sayporan says that the reformatted young people will soon return to Terra. They will form the Umbrian Council - the new government of the Terrans. Marrghiz believes that the humans will quickly give up their resistance as soon as they have a government of their own, but which will act in the interests of the Sayporans. Riordan is of a different opinion. The TLS chief has recognized that the "Shadow" is a new power in the game, whose goals are still completely unknown.

2645 The City Without Secrets

Beitrag von jerrys109 »

Nr. 2645
Die Stadt ohne Geheimnisse
The City Without Secrets
von Wim Vandemaan

Shamsur Routh is looking for Anicee throughout the sterile looking city Anboleis. Nobody disturbs his presence. With the pattern dress, a symbiont that he had received from 1113 Taomae, he can camouflage himself in an emergency and even make himself invisible. On the 8th of November, 1469 NGE, three weeks after his arrival, Routh discovers two of Anicee’s friends: Kathiko and Chensit. He finds out where he can find Anicee and that her reformatting is almost complete. Anicee stays distracted, but she talks to her father and lets him stay with her. She explains that she will soon return to the Earth. She and the other mentally transformed youths, calling themselves Sayterranians, will form the Umbrian Council there. Thus the people will be able to free themselves from the bonds of the immortals - who are just marionettes of the superintelligences and the Cosmocrats . Before that, the Sayterranians must connect themselves with the Universal Spainkon, a vast knowledge store, which has just been contacted by another, equally comprehensive archive. With this, the Sayterranians will absorb all the knowledge of the Sayporans. When asked about Benat Achiary's death, Anicee said the young man had been incurably ill and wanted to die.

Disguised with the pattern dress, Routh goes to the Spainkon and crosses a sort of portal. A human in it named Zachary Cranstoun talks to him and explains to him that he is within the Continuous Sediment - the brains of the Favadarei are a new intelligence added to the archive of the Spainkon. Routh finds himself physically in a million-year-old memory and "experiences" the story of the race of the Chaom ingichiy chaodhas buchesgha. This insectoid people living on the planet Chaom fachis in the galaxy Khooch had developed the Mentronics: Computers, into which the brains of an individual, and then several other dead beings from various races were implanted. From the Mentronics the Chaom first developed the dead-brain, and from the combination of many of these dead-brains, the entity Alldar emerged. The Chaom and all the other nations became more dependent on the extensive influence of Alldar in all the processes of life, so that it amounted to a shock when most of the dead-brains left their planetary bases for the last step towards becoming the super-intelligence ALLDAR. ALLDAR'S slumber came some time later, when the black hole, in whose orbit ALLDAR had moved its seat, became a quasar.

On November13th, Routh returns to reality. He has gained important knowledge. The anomaly in which the Earth is trapped is an independent universe that has been "implanted" into the standard universe. The miniature universe is unstable and can only be stabilized by the psi-body of a superintelligence ( ARCHETIM ). This was the reason for the abduction of the Sol system. The miniature universe is to be controlled by ALLDAR’S brain. It would thus be a kind of living being, a universe with a brain - a Neuroversum.

Despite his camouflage, Routh is discovered. He is barely able to escape immediate capture, but is encircled. His ‘foster father’ Chourtaird appears with his unusual little space ship ANAIRY and picks up Routh. The Terran is thus safe. Chourtaird says that Anicee is an important person, among other things for the Academy for Logistics on Druh. This is the secret government of the world-wreath system and the seat of the usurpers of the Sayporan culture. The space ship leaves the world-wreath system. Routh believes the trip is going to Terra…

Die Tage des Schattens
The Day of the Shadows
from Leo Lukas

QIN SHI personally meets with Marrghiz and talks about the progress made in the Sol system. According to Chourwayr's ancient Explicator, who can communicate with the Spenta because of its para-ability, it will only be a matter of time until the Psi-body of ARCHETIM is finally extracted from the sun. However, time passes differently inside the anomaly in which the Sol system is trapped. There are three other sites with bodies of superintelligenes ( Zyorin Zopai , Conybara and Djeenoun ), but there have not yet been any significant successes.

Despite the guerrilla attacks on Fagesy patrols, the situation on Earth is considered to be quiet. The Terrans believe that the Fagesys and Sayporans have not come as conquerors, but as friends who will lead mankind to a happy, peaceful future. That's why Marrghiz is not pleased with Chossom's independent action. The Fagesy attacked the Waringer Academy on November 8, 1469 NGE, because according to an anonymous source ALLDAR’s corpse is being hidden there. Hundreds of Terrans are wounded, and fifty deaths are to be lamented. The so-called Shadow is becoming all the more popular, as he haunts the invaders with nonviolent actions. In one act, he draws a giant smiley face on a star galleon and places a basket with a new born white donkey on the pyramid of the Ellert Memorial, where Fydor Riordan actually wanted to trap him. In addition, the unauthorized use of a transit parcel is registered for the second time.

Phaemonoe Eghoo is tasked to devise an event to put the invaders in a better light. The return of the first Reformatted youngsters, scheduled for November 15th, would be a good occasion for accomplishing this. The government spokeswoman prepares a folk festival along with the ceremony at Dolan Memorial Park.

In the meantime, a strange man is talking about himself in the Café Trieste in Terrania. The new regular guest is named Toufec dresses like a desert nomad and keeps his enthusiastic audience amused with profound bits of wisdom. He also speaks to Phaemonoe, but fails with her. Kornel Krisch, the head waiter at the Café Trieste, is suspicious at first, but the man behaves himself and pays well. As a means of payment, he uses 4500-year-old, extremely valuable frankincense beads.

The return of the Reformatted youths via transit parquet proceeds as planned. On the other hand, the sense of reunion is restrained on both sides. The returnees behave reserved, as if they are strangers. Anicee Ybarri, daughter of the First Terran and one of the Reformatted, takes the floor. She declares that she and her thirty companions are the new government of the Terrans. The Reformatted will form the Umbrian Council of Sayterrans, and Anicee will be its spokeswoman. The first meeting will take place in three days.

After the departure of the Umbrian Council, the Sayporans immediately begin recruiting new youths from the audience, but they are unable to transport them across the transit parquet, because the Shadow takes control. Strange animals, which look like a mixture of camel and lion, are unable to be stopped by the defense fire of TARA battle robots. These animals are obviously products of superior technology. The chimeras transform into drilling rigs and destroy the transit parquet. Phaemonoe talks about the incident live on the scene and has even a better sensation: the Shadow reveals his true face and gives her an interview. It is none other than Toufec. He calls himself an emissary or a harbinger. He was allegedly sent to Terra to announce that salvation is approaching. There is a power that fights against the Fagesys and Sayporaners. All the Terrans, who are of good will, are to stand by the side of this power. Then Toufec disappears on a flying carpet.

2647 The Umbrian Gong

Der Umbrische Gong
The Umbrian Gong
from Leo Lukas


With the help of the Shadow Sharoun Beffegor, Barisch Ghada, the Matten Willy Snacco and the Fagesy Oachono Fydor escape Riordan's agents. Toufec meets with Sharoun and announces that he is working for Rhodan. The guerrillas cannot return to Ghada’s apartment. That is why Sharoun gets in contact with Undine Comerell, a colleague who, unlike her, had remained with the TSD. The two were not girlfriends - actually, they had a real catfight during an exercise mission in 1466 NGE - but Undine has lost confidence in Fydor Riordan since after Chakt-Vachtor's death. The Topsider was Sharoun's and Undine's instructor. Undine rightly assumes that Riordan murdered him. That's why she is helping Sharoun's group escape.

After the media covered attack of the Shadow on the transit parquet at Dolan Memorial Park, Riordan is making every effort to get Toufec into his hands. The mysterious man is declared state enemy number one. This does not bother Toufec much, as his fans begin to imitate him. He continues to deliberately attract attention. With his superior equipment, which even allows him to walk like a structural runner through solid matter, he thumbs his nose at the TLS and the police again and again. Riodan needs to find the right bait to put pressure on Toufec. He believes Sharoun and her companions would be appropriate hostages. He quickly finds that there is a link between Sharoun and Undine. The latter had disappeared since November 5, 1469 NGE, allegedly moving under the cover of a Unither woman into a witness protection program. The security measures of this program are so sophisticated that even the new TLS chief must come up with something special to find his victims.

The first meeting of the Umbrian Council, however, is scheduled to meet. It will take place on November 18th in front of three thousand spectators in the Cosmopolitan Opera House. There are numerous journalists present, but interviews are not welcome. The whole event is a farce. Anicee Ybarri is officially appointed Councilor. She announces the founding of a new state for Humanity called Formatted Terra Umbra (FTU), in which the older non-Formatted Terrans and beings from other races will be simply tolerated until they die off of old age. The first measures to be taken by the new government will be to set up a large number of transit parquets, which can be used to send further youths to the Weltkranz system. The artificial suns will also be darkened some for the comfort of the Sayterranians. The Umbrian Gong is also to be delivered as a gift for the Council. This eleven meter-thick, light pink film is installed at a height of twenty meters above the Solar Residence . The gong hits for the first time at exactly 10PM local time. The audible sound makes all Terrans (even Toufec) fall into a pleasant trance for a few minutes. According to Pazuzu, Toufec's technical jinn, simple ear plugs are sufficient to protect oneself against it.

On November20th, Riordan and Ve Kekolor, head of the Residence Ministry for Mutant Questions, visit the TIPI. The para-gifted Terran Ofner Kiwanika is to help in the tracking of the guerrillas. The twenty-two-year-old man has been traumatized and is mentally retarded, but has an ability similar to the sensor gift of the mutant Fellmer Lloyd. Kiwanika can only find people who mean something to him. But he does not have to know them personally. Therefore, in the TLS Tower, he is shown how two arms are separated from a Fagesy (Oachono had the same thing happen), while Kiwanika's para-ability is enhanced by an experimental hyper-drug. He feels Oachono in the space habit Nuevo Quito Orbital. Riordan personally directs the attack there on the next day, but Sharoun's group can escape in time by a cage transmitter. Undine had already contacted an agent of the Society of Absent Friends. The refugees meet at Heathrow Spaceport with Homer G. Adams, who invites them to the fort in New Ganymede. The refugees fly out with the LADY LAVERNA .

On the same day, the Umbrian Gong beats for the second time. However, it is then destroyed by falcons - the "animals" consist of nano-machines and were sent by Toufec. Marrghiz takes the setback smiling. He believes that by this action, Toufec had lost a lot of his popularity. In addition, new gongs are to be installed. Toufec, however, is fine. He gives Phaemonoe Eghoo (who publicly takes this occasion to quit her public office) a new interview, which is broadcast on all channels. Toufec warns against QIN SHI and the imminent fall of the anomaly. He proclaims again that salvation by his master, who is already in the Sol system, is approaching. The name of Toufec's master is Rhodan! After the end of the transmission, Pazuzu creates a small spaceship. Toufec and Phaemonoe set off to meet Rhodan.

All the events on Terra are watched carefully from the fort. In this well-equipped and shielded station in the middle of the construction site of the emerging moon New-Ganymede, in which Reginald Bull is hiding, the twenty-three sleeping crew members of the BOMBAY are also quarantined. Kirte Otorongo, Chief Medic of the fortress, is trying to wake them up. Nachtaugs Beisohn, one of the crew members, is monitored by Geronimo Abb and DayScha. He is on the road to recovery. Meanwhile, Morse code signals are received on November 22nd. Someone is asking for permission to enter the TOLBA - signed: Rhodan! Bull gives the permission, but when he sees the TOLBA - a one hundred and ten meter transparent sphere with a seventy-five meter diameter sphere embedded in it, he is doubtful ...

2648 - The Soul of the Fleet

Beitrag von jerrys109 »

No. 2648
Die Seele der Flotte
The soul of the fleet
from Christian Montillon

The MIKRU-JON is inside an anomaly. The hypercrystals there have a detrimental effect on the ship and its crew. Cold is spreading, most of the crew members are unconscious, and Mikru is shows signs of dissolution. Even the Suit of the Universes becomes problematic. It tells Perry Rhodan that he has failed to exploit his full potential. A creature resembling an Oracca speaks to Ramoz. Since the latter cannot find the right words due to missing memories, he has to prove himself in a test to be the " soul " of the fleet waiting for him for a long time in the anomaly. Perry Rhodan, Nemo Partijan and a Lare named Numenkor-Bolok - a former pilot of the MIKRU-JON, who is given a new material body - are transferred into the partly real, partly unreal world.

Partijan recognizes that the hypercrystals somehow influence all the events in the anomaly and keep the fleet in stasis. Rhodan does not know where the scientist gets his knowledge from (Partijan's back pain seems to be related to it somehow), but trusts him. He thereby succeeds in penetrating into the headquarters of one of the foreign ships. There he does something with a control console that brings the fleet under Ramoz's command. However, the wait was a bit too long: only one ship is currently operational.

Ramoz and Mondra Diamond decide to stay in the cold space. From there, they can observe what is happening in normal space, while trying to make the rest of the fleet operational. If they succeed in this, Rhodan wants to possibly man it with people from the Desperate Resistance. Rhodan leaves the anomaly with the MIKRU-JON. He has to reach the BASIS, the transformation of which is almost completed, according to Partijan. After the MIKRU-JON has passed the structural lock of the miniature universe, conditions return to normal. Numenkor-Bolok's body begins to dissolve. Rhodan has to "kill" him so he can return into the datastreams of the MIKRU-JON.

2649 The Master Builders of the BASIS

Beitrag von jerrys109 »

Nr. 2649
The Master Builders of the BASIS
Die Baumeister der BASIS
von Michael Marcus Thurner



QIN SHI kills Kaowen to punish him for his failure. Before the mind of the Protector receives a new clone body, it enters the superintelligence and learns how it fills itself with the mental energy of the population of two worlds, killing them. As he then dwells again among the living, Kaowen finds that he carries a splinter of QIN SHI, who had tormented him, but at the same time gave him new insights and abilities. The preparations for the conquest of Escalian are in full swing. A huge fleet is being brought together at the shipyard APERAS KOKKAIA. The fragments of the BASIS are wrapped in a cloud of hypercrystals. QIN SHI hopes to bring the vessel - or the suspected Suit of the Universes and the Multiversum Ocular - into its possession in this way.

However, the metamorphosis of the BASIS is inexorably advancing meanwhile. By November 6, 1469 NGE, the fragments begin to reunite, while at the same time undergoing fundamental transformations. The material dissolves and then forms new structures. Gradually two spheres with a diameter of 12.5 and nearly 6 kilometers are formed. The last surviving Galactics aboard, who have been fighting for survival for weeks against the invaders and transforming segments, cut off from their own, are in mortal danger. The group led by Trasur Sargon includes Tino, a criminal whose true identity is unknown until the drugs he is addicted to run out, so that he reveals the truth in his withdrawal delirium. He can remain in the group, because with his abilities he is valuable for the battle against the enemies remaining in the BASIS.

An announcement is made by the computer of the BASIS, according to which the Phanes configuration has been initiated. Form energy humanoid figures appear from thin air and perform mysterious activities. Tino succeeds in forcing one of these phenomena into a dialogue. The humanoids refer to themselves as Raphaelites. The had not expected anyone to be in the BASIS. Since they do not want to kill anybody, all living intelligent creatures on board are told to meet in a certain location for evacuation through a transmitter tube. Trasur Sargon and his people must convince their enemies to join them. On the 17th of November, Tino speaks to Reparat Haogarth, the commander of the invading command, and comes to a truce agreement with him.

The evacuation runs smoothly. About seventy Galactics and one hundred fifty Xylthenes, Dosanthis and Badakks are placed in a BASIS fragment, which remains stable. But there, the Galactics fall into a trap. Korech Zadur, a Dosanthi from Haogarth's squad, sacrifices himself to trigger a huge panic wave. The Galactics fall there helpless. The invaders load their weapons, preparing to kill the foolish Galactics…

2650 The Phanes Circuit

No. 2650
Die Phanes-Schaltung
The Phanes Circuit
from Uwe Anton

After various difficulties in leaving the anomaly are overcome, the MIKRU-JON and Ennerhahl’s light cell fly back to the location of the BASIS. The old long- distance spaceship has completely converted itself into two different sized spheres. At the same time, more and more attack ships are gathering to invade the galaxy Escalian. QIN SHI orders the transfer of the BASIS to the interior of the shipyard APERAS KOKKAIA, but its conversion could not be prevented. All attempts by Kaowen to crack the protective screen of the BASIS were in vain. Suddenly the screen expands in two waves, destroying the hypercrystal cloud in which the ship was wrapped. In addition, the APERAS KOKKAIA’s screen collapses, which the MIKRU-JON takes advantage of to fly in. Perry Rhodan and Gucky teleport inside of one of the BASIS-spheres, because the mousebeaver felt mental impulses coming from it and energy shots were registered there. Erik Theonta and other crew members there are saved from Haogarth's Xylthes. But few have survived the fighting.

A Raphaelite and the original Raphael appear. Ennerhahl is recognized as an authorized representative of ES (although not authorized to act as a proxy). Rhodan learns that the transformed BASIS is in fact the Multiversum Ocular. The actual Ocular is located in the larger spherical cell, while accommodation and supply facilities are accommodated in the smaller one. Due to hyperphysical phenomena inside it, no one can enter the larger sphere. Supposedly, the Gray Room, the Phanes Configuration and the Multiversum Ocular were part of the BASIS from the beginning. They would have given the Galactics the opportunity to enter the Arresum, but that had turned out not to be necessary at the time. Someone must have had access to the Gray Room and blocked the Phanes circuit during the time that the BASIS waited for the Tarkan Federation to return. It was recently activated by an unknown person. Rhodan assumes that Delorian is behind all this - when he mentions the name, Raphael does not react. He does not know the name. The suspicion grows in Rhodan that everyone has been manipulated by Delorian, including ES himself.

The BASIS begins to move and approaches the anomaly in the center of the APERAS KOKKAIA. Apparently, the BASIS is to be brought to Escalian. Suddenly parts of the shipyard are torn by a huge explosion, in which Kaowen's last clone body is destroyed. It is shown that a solar bomb was sent through the anomaly and then blown up halfway through. It is now no longer possible to cross the anomaly. The Suit of the Universes informs Rhodan that he had been its second "second choice" as a bearer. Its actual bearer, says the suit, is somewhere nearby. Gucky jumps with Rhodan, Ennerhahl and Nemo Partijan to a prison section of the shipyard. There they find Samburi Yura, who is only a shadow of her former self, her body rapidly aging, and they take her back to the BASIS cell. QIN SHI appears personally on the scene, but does not seem to notice the Galactics and moves on towards the anomaly. Samburi Yura's body quickly disintegrates. She mentions a morning nurse and the term Anaree, then dies and dissolves completely. In the puddle of her remains, Partijan finds a star sapphire…

2651 - Save The BASIS!

Nr. 2651
Save the BASIS!
Rettet die BASIS!
by Leo Lukas



Nemo Partijan notes that the remains of Samburi Yuras are genetically unstable. It was probably not the real Enthone, but a replica. The super-strong protective screen of the former BASIS goes out. Gucky is tormented by QIN SHI’s psychic broadcasts and they elicit incomprehensible warnings from him.

QIN SHI is confused and lets countless individuals out of his collective consciousness. They are physically inside APERAS KOKKAIAS, suffer under the condition of being released and do everything they can to return to the superintelligence. Like QIN SHI, they are looking for vital energy and set up a slaughter among the crew of the shipyard. Kaowen is powerless, because the affected sectors are closed off and QIN SHI’s confusion is also affecting all his people. Gucky, Rynol Cog-Láar, Quistus, Nemo Partijan and Perry Rhodan are suitable prey for the beings released by QIN SHI due to their para-abilities and cell activators. They are kidnapped with a kind of fictive transmitter and, separated from each other in the shipyard, have to deal with the former components of QIN SHI. Gucky learns that ES is responsible for QIN SHI’s confusion.

Rhodan meets Hauge Hay'änn and his queen Kand'ak Sarshaktin from the people of the Yuneti. Both are Concepts or avatars of QIN SHI. Rhodan's cell activator is to serve them in a return to the superintelligence reserve of consciousnesses. Rhodan must play for the cell activator and wins. He is allowed to keep his cell activator, but he is also supposed to be subsumed into QIN SHI. He is inaugurated into the plans of superintelligence. The anomalies stabilized with entities or their corpses (created with Sholoubwa’s aid) should serve as a means of transport and weapons, but above all as an area of retreat. In the interior of the anomalies, QIN SHI would be deprived of any access by the higher powers. In preparation for the invasion of Escalian, QIN SHI would first have to stabilize the anomalies herself. The superintelligence, however, fears that someone could find and destroy their anchors, which they apparently must leave behind in the anomaly.

QIN SHI pulls back in the emitted consciousness content and penetrates the anomaly. Rhodan is threatened by the same fate. He is, however, saved by Gucky, who has already retrieved the other abducted people. They all return to Ennerhahl's light cell, where the MIKRU-JON stands, and has now docked with the smaller of the two BASIS spheres. Raphael appoints Ennerhahl as commander of the supply sphere. He himself has to bring the larger sphere with the Multiversum Ocular to safety by means of an emergency transition with an unknown destination, because the current Paratron screen could not provide adequate protection against Kaowen’s attacks. The top priority is to save the BASIS! The supply sphere also flees, while the anomaly expands and destroys the APERAS KOKKAIA. The supply sphere contacts the SICHOU-1 and the KADURA. Meanwhile Kaowen fled with the RADONJU from the shipyard.

2562 - Dream of the True Thoughts

Beitrag von jerrys109 »

No. 2652
Dream of the True Thoughts
Traum der wahren Gedanken
by Susan Schwartz

Tormanac da Hozarius is the "adviser" to the Arkonide Imperator, a man of far-reaching authority and great power, but hardly anyone knows his true function. He is Bostich's right-hand man and does a variety of tasks for him - often without the knowledge of the Imperator. For example, on the planet Travnor, an important hypercrystal discovery is owned by Shekur Mapoc da Akkat, whom Tormanac considers a member of the notorious Ark'Tussan Faction. To investigate this, Tormanac travels personally to Travnor with his friend and bodyguard, the Naat Ghlesduul. Two assassination attempts and a dinner in Mapoc's estate later, Tormanac is certain that his host actually belongs to the Ark'Tussan, but not he, but his nephew Anelag is behind the attacks. Ghlesduul locates the assassin, a simple Anelag employee named Herm Porlt. The man is babbling about Genesis Plasma, a pool of true thought in an underground facility, and the Badakks.

In the meantime, the oppressed Unither workers organize themselves into a kind of union and send their spokesman Kormph to Anelag. The Arkonide does not allow Kormph to speak, but announces the relocation of all factories for the further processing of hypercrystals to Travnors moon Travsheyn. The Unithers are to be relocated there. On the way back, Kormph is kidnapped by robots and placed in a basin containing a liquid that penetrates his body. After that, he hardly has his own will and tries to convince his comrades that it would be good for them to give up their homeland and live on Travsheyn in the future. Kormph physically gets worse and worse. He thinks he has to go back into the pool again, or else he will die. His friends Vlck , Knfl , Robff , Stozi , Uwtn , Rcst and Brcl try to help him.

Tormanac is also on his way to the underground facility where the pool is located, but alone. He falls into the hands of strange cylindrical creatures and is paralyzed by them. HE is placed in a basin filled with an oily, gelatinous fluid. As the substance diffuses into him, he feels strange thoughts. They are exposing memories that Tormanac has repressed a long time ago…

2653 Arkonide Intrigues

Beitrag von jerrys109 »

Nr. 2653
Arkonidische Intrigen
Arkonide Intrigues
by Hubert Haensel




Tormanac da Hozarius remembers his past, starting with the failed activation of his extra sense after the otherwise extremely successful conclusion of the ARK SUMMIA on Iprasa. His family hires a mysterious man named Cregon to take over Tormanac's education. Tormanac accompanies the stranger, who always hides his face behind a distortion field - but only after he has accepted a challenge from the young Arkonide and found a lost family symbol, the Crystal Star of Emperor Hozarius XIX. As it turned out, Tormanac da Hozarius always wore the crystal star on himself.

For the next three years, Tormanac learns everything one needs to know as an agent of the Arkonide Intelligence Service, without actually being admitted to the Tussan Ranton Celis. Under Cregon's guidance, in 1407 NGE he participates in various missions on planets in the Dashkon Star Cloud. In this area, which was embedded in a hyper-cocoon until the Hyperimpedanz-increase, there are always Arkon- hostile actions in motion. The Tu-Ra-Cel takes care of the problem. In an incident in an antique shop, in which Terran Samurai swords are sold, Tormanac figures out that Cregon must have a special relationship with the Terrans. He learns that Cregon is a Kralasene. His real name is Shallowain.

Thereafter, Tormanac and Cregon / Shallowain spend an entire year on Aurora, home of the New Galacticum. Tormanac works in Galakto City as an assistant to Tu-Ra-Cel Adviser Joresska. He briefs her on a recent purge by Imperator Bostich in the Dashkon Star Cloud, and is sent to the Sol system shortly thereafter. After completing his relatively minor job on Mars and returning to Aurora, Shallowain has disappeared. Joresska is behind it - she belongs to the Ark'Tussan Faction, in whose machinations the Ragnaari-Khasurn is also involved. Joresska can be tracked down with the help of some Kralasene, but she resists arrest and is killed. Shallowain is also dead. He had been kidnapped and committed suicide to prevent revealing information that could damage Bostich. Tormanac gains access to a specially encoded Shallowain file containing a voice recording from May 1332 NGE. The message proves that even then there was a plot against Bostich. Tormanac now intends to track down the other people involved in Shallowain’s death...

2654 Signs of the Time

Beitrag von jerrys109 »

No. 2654
Signs of the Time
Zeichen der Zeit
from Hubert Hansel

Tormanac da Hozarius works on Urengoll, the twentieth planet of the Arkon system. The ice world is the fiefdom of the Arkonide Chief Scientist Aktakul and has been expanded into a huge research center. Tormanac is promoted and demanded by Aktakul. He masters all his exams with flying colors. After two and a half years - five and a half years after Shallowain's death - Aktakul introduces his protégé to the Naat Ghlesduul from one of his teams. Tormanac's blemish (the failed activation of his extra sense) did not remain hidden from Aktakul. Ghlesduul is assigned to serve Tormanac as a bodyguard and "external extra". The Naat accompanies the young Arkonide everywhere as a sounding board, repeatedly questioning Tormanac’s decisions, and knows how to deliver a snappy comment for everything. In addition, he is a capable helper in every situation. The two soon become friends.

In 1417 NGE Tormanac leaves Urengoll for a round trip through the Milky Way. More than eight years later, he is recalled by Aktakul. Tormanac's mentor has aged significantly and is nearing his end. He presents Tormanac with the choice of working either for the SENTENZA, to which Aktakul once belonged, in the future or joining the Science and Research advisory board under Imperator Bostich. Tormanac chooses the latter. In addition, Tormanac is asked to conduct the funeral ceremony for Aktakul, who died on December 29, 1425 NGE. Bostich attends the disintegration ceremony on January 29, 1426 NGE. On this occasion, Tormanac personally meets the Imperator for the first time. The SENTENZA is also active there and tries to steal Aktakul’s research data. Agents of the SENTENZA penetrate into the sensitive areas of the facilities on Urengoll. Tormanac is committed to ensuring that they at least receive copies of some of the data and are allowed to withdraw without hindrance. He even contradicts the Emperor in this, taking the initiative for himself.

Thirty-seven years later, Tormanac, now seventy-nine years old, has risen in the hierarchy and heads Bostich's advisory board. He is a member of the Arkonide delegation, which travels to the Blue System on March 25, 1463 NGE at the invitation of the Akons. A stranger - probably a member of the Ark'Tussan Faction - informs him of the impending sabotaging of the firing of the Akon Beacon. Tormanac is among the scientists who prevent the disaster, by calling for an evacuation in time. Bostich then turns him into his unofficial right hand man.

Six and a half years later, shortly after the disappearance of the Sol system and the abduction of the BASIS in September 1469 NGE, Tormanac meets with Ronald Tekener and warns the Smiler against the " Ark'Tussan Faction". Thus, the assassination of the LFT conference can be prevented, in which Arun Joschannan is elected the new First Terran. Tormanac himself is still trying to locate the instigators of Shallowain's death, which he also suspects to be from the Ark’Tussan Faction. For this reason, he goes to Travnor and ends up in the power of the Badakk…

2655 Garrabo Beats Phenube

Nr. 2655
Garrabo schlägt Phenube
Garrabo Beats Phenube
by Arndt Ellmer


Before his capture, Tormanac da Hozarius was able to make an emergency call. Ghlesduul saves him. Mapoc da Akkat is informed about the most current incidents. He assures Tormanac of his support. The secret facility is under investigation. Nobody can make sense of the terms “Badakk” and “ QIN SHI”, which Tormanac now knows, but it is clear that extragalactic infiltrators are active on Travnor . They fled the secret base, but still have to stay on Travnor. Tormanac decides it's time to call on the USO. Ronald Tekener shows up with the JULES VERNE and ten Posbi Fragment ships of the Galactic Fleet. The TRAJAN arrives shortly afterwards. The genesis plasma from the Pool of True Thoughts is analyzed. The mucilaginous substance consists of modified Badakk cells. It invades any host body where it envelops organs, creates its own ganglia, and evolves into a second, conscious entity within the host body that can fully direct its host. Whoever carries such a quasi-Badakk, gains weight just as significantly as its appetite is increased, because the parasite is dependent on its food intake.

Tormanac assumes that there are already numerous victims of the genesis plasma on Travnor. He himself was not in the Pool of True Thoughts long enough, so he can escape this fate. With the Unither Kormph, the process was also not fully completed, but unlike Tormanac he carries enough of the pseudo-Badakk inside him to be partially controlled, but his physical condition steadily grows worse because the process had gone on for too long. Anelag, Mapoc's nephew, is identified as the carrier of a fully developed parasite and captured. Tormanac believes that the Badakk had chosen Anelag because he is a Garrabo Master whose strategic skills they want to profit from. In order to learn more about the strangers and save Kormph, Tormanac orders the Unither to be put back into the genesis plasma and lays down in it as well. In this way he learns that both the Badakks and the Sayporaners, which have been encountered under the name of “Augurs”, are helpers of the super-intelligence QIN SHI that aim at destabilizing the Milky Way. The Badakks have infiltrated the Ark'Tussan for this purpose. The system of destabilization has existed for at least two years.

Tormanac is pulled in time from the genesis plasma before it can take him over. However, Kormph is probably beyond help. At the same time, many inhabitants of Travnor are beginning to behave strangely - they are all carriers of parasites, and their masters, the Badakk, have given them up as they attempt to flee with Anelag's spaceship the DREAM OF TRAVNOR. When the ship is caught by the JULES VERNE and the TRAJAN, it is blown up by its crew. Only one Sayporan named Marrnuur, who has remained behind on Travnor, falls into the hands of the Galactics…

2656 The Feynman Command

Beitrag von jerrys109 »

Nr. 2656
Das Feynman-Kommando
The Feynman Command
von Wim Vandemaan




The TOLBA is brought to the fort on November 22, 1469 NGE. Reginald Bull personally receives the man who steps out of the ship - it is not Perry Rhodan as hoped, but his son Delorian. He no longer considers himself the Chronicler of ES and now wants to do what his father has always lacked the courage to do. Delorian declares that he has arrived with the Star Alliance in the Sol system (Toufec is one of them) whose job it is to lead the Feynman Command working on Terra. He does not reveal any further information, but invites Bull to accompany him to Terra on the TOLBA. The Resident is not enthusiastic about this, and he looks with suspicion at the effect that Delorian has on the crew of the fort: The Galactics seem to see something almost like a savior in Rhodan's son.

Bull receives a message from Nachtaug's assistant. A strange ship has supposedly penetrated the Sol system and is now near Uranus. Bull first wants to know if this is a new threat before deciding on Delorian's invitation. He flies to Uranus with the heavy cruiser CLEOPATRA , which serves him as an emergency vehicle. He is only accompanied by Shanda Sarmotte; The CLEOPATRA is largely automated, under its biopositronic’s control and does not require a crew. Three star galleons are on site; apparently they are also looking for the intruder. In the protection of the Paros shadow screen the CLEOPATRA is safe. Guided by Shanda’s Para-ability Bull discovered an unknown ship in the crater Skynd of Uranus’ moon Umbriel - it's the ANÄIRY with Chourtaird and Shamsur Routh on board. The two of them are not in good condition. The small ship is taken on board and brought to the fort. Previously, Bull fakes the destruction of the CLEOPATRA to fool the star galleons. Since Bull has to deal with the newcomers, Shanda flies with Delorian to the Earth.

While Shamsur Routh's condition remains worrying, Chourtaird recovers quickly. Bull receives some important information, from the two new guests in the fort and the Medic Kirte Otorongo, who examines the Sayporaner. Chourtaird is at least one thousand years old – or at least some of his organs are. Some are younger, some even older. They are obviously from other creatures. Chourtaird's genome is not homogeneous; there are hundreds of dominant DNA patterns. Chourtaird is unique. The Sayporaner confirms this and says he that, like all "elders who have survived," he cannot reproduce. Routh reports on his encounter with Zachary Cranstoun in the dead brain, which is supposed to stabilize anomaly and must awaken for this purpose. Otherwise, the anomaly will be destroyed and the sol system with it.

Chourtaird adds that QIN SHI would be unassailable in the Neuroversum - even by the Higher Powers. The Neuroversum could thus become the nucleus of a new cosmic superpower. Undoubtedly, QIN SHI will soon be hunting and killing superintelligence to use their bodies to stabilize the anomaly. Eventually, QIN SHI might reach out to more rewarding prey, such as Matter Sources. Then the entire known universe would be in danger. After informing Bull about some peculiarities of Sayporan culture, Chourtaird says that his people have fallen for QIN SHI. The Inspectors of the Academy of Logistics on Druh had made sure of that. Chourtaird asks the Terrans for help. In return, his group will see to it that the Sol system is left to the Terrans and transferred back to regular space, if the people so wish. However, the Sayporans can do nothing against the Reformatting of the youths and the Fimbul Crust of the Spenta. The Terrans, however, will receive the coordinates of the Lichtwirt system, the home of the Spenta. Bull then assures him of his help.

The TOLBA lands undetected in the middle of Terrania on the 23rd of November. They meet with Toufec and on the following day with Phaemonoe Eghoo, who spreads Delorian's recorded message via SIN-TC. Rhodan's son proclaims, "We'll get the Sol system back," and asks for "a grain of patience." A little later, Fydor Riordan arrives at SIN-TC and kills Phaemonoe, deliberately making him a bogeyman on behalf of his new bosses. Meanwhile, two other Star Alliance members meet Delorian: Clara Esleve and Duncan Talbot , the head of the Feynman Command. They are protected by mental hoods against telepaths. Talbot takes off his hood and lets Shanda participate in the mission of the Feynman Command, which neutralizes the Fagesy nano-weapons. Thus, no more earthquakes can be triggered. In a second prepared message on November 26th, Delorian tells this people this.

Thus Reginald Bull learns that the occupiers of Terras are reacting to the destruction of their most important means of pressuring the Terrans by activating the protective screens of the Solar Residence and activating the secret order Winter Silence. With this code, which is meant to prevent the takeover of the fleet by enemy forces in a crisis, all the spaceships of the home fleet are virtually frozen in the Sol system. Except for the life support systems and other basic functions, the ships can no longer be operated. Through these measures, all attempts to overthrow the enemy are to be nipped in the bud. Chossom, who has always been an advocate for tougher action against the Terrans, prevails and calls for reinforcement from home - several tens of thousands of Utrofarian Ovoids, which are making their way to the Sol system.

Anicee Ybarri is not pleased with this development, as she has been convinced to be doing something good for her fellow human beings and to achieve a peaceful integration of humanity into the Sayporan kingdom. Nevertheless, she causes the deactivation of the artificial sun. This is meant to achieve a "cooling of the minds". Anicee gives a speech in which she invites Delorian Rhodan to the Solar Residence. She presents it as if the nano-weapon was going to have been deactivated anyway in the near future. It's a trap: TARA battle robots reinforced by units of Fagesy move to the Residence. This is the moment when Flotilla Admiral Tanny Abro loses patience. Parts of the FIrst Terran Space Division, which she has commanded, have so far remained in readiness in Terrania's underground . Now they move out and form a second encircling ring around the Residence - a stalemate arises. Oachono turns to his peers from the fort with a speech and makes heavy accusations against the Omnipresent Rearguard, which are ignored by Chossom.

Chourtaird gives Bull more information about the Spenta. Among this sun-dwelling people, there is a group of them called the Light Hosts who reject the coexistence with planet dwellers sought by all other Spenta. Only the Light Hosts are currently active in the Sol system. Chourtaird demands the release of ARCHETIM's psimaterial corpse in exchange for his help. Bull agrees. The pact is sealed by dismembering Bully’s tip of the left pinky and attaching it to Chourtaird. Bully’s mutilated finger is repaired by the injection of a regeneration agent.

At the same time, many citizens of Terrania celebrate the hoped-for early liberation of Terra. A group of teenagers use holograms to show caricatures of Fagesy during a joyous procession. The starfish like beings cannot accept this insult. They attack the revelers with paralyzers and capture them. Abro sends soldiers to free them. The troops are supported by Toufec and some Haluters. On November 27, 1469 NGE it comes to short, but fierce fighting, after which the Fagesy have to retreat.

In the meanwhile, the crews of the eight hundred meter battleship KRAKAU II and the LEIF ERIKSSON IV succeed in undermining the secret order Winter Silence. In the case of the KRAKAU, Security Officer Qester Brnowatz comes up with the idea of feeding glitches into the computer system via a so-called vampire tap. In the LEIF ERIKSSON, Residency Minister Vashari Ollaron is able to use her overriding authority. Bull, who is generally thought to be dead, contacts Ollaron and Abro. Because the tide could turn badly for the Terrans by the upcoming arrival of new Ovoid spaceships , the League Fleet must be released immediately from the secret order Winter Silence. For this purpose, Bull must go personally to the Residence to gain control of LAOTSE. Bull knows a way to get inside, but he can only do so alone.

2658 The Hour of the Resident

Die Stunde des Residenten
The Hour of the Resident
von Verena Themsen


Although Delorian Rhodan has promised comprehensive protection for the Sol system, it cannot be deployed until November 28, 1469 NGE. But Chossom requested reinforcements that will arrive earlier, which would find the LFT fleet helpless due to receiving the secret order Winter Silence, which immobilized it. Reginald Bull must therefore penetrate into the Solar Residence and take control of LAOTSE. Delorian claims that he can access the transit parquet installed by the Sayporans in the Residence and send troops from the 1st Terran Space Division as soon as the Paratron screen of the Steel Orchid is deactivated. Time is still pressing for another reason, as the Spenta are already releasing ARCHETIM's psi-corpse from the sun. Bull uses an override code to enter the Residence. After checking his personal impulses and the vibrations of his cell activator, the way is clear.

Meanwhile, some March Givers of the Fagesys decide on their own authority that the waiting is over. To find out where the Terrans have hidden ALLDAR’s body, they want to take advantage of the opportunity and read the central computer of one of the paralyzed LFT ships. In an action not sanctioned by Chossom, they board the MANNHEIM, whose crew is desperately trying to defend themselves but is ultimately fighting a losing battle. At the same time, the Earth gradually cools down as a result of the extinction of the artificial suns, causing many plants and animals to die.

Reginald Bull is led by a holographic guide in the guise of Siganese Ulan Soso through the Residency Museum and uses more holograms to confuse the Fagesys. He releases nanomachines from Delorian's collection, which immediately start on their own way to the transit parquet in order to reprogram it. LAOTSE is less willing to cooperate than expected, because the Umbrian Council has lawfully obtained power of the government and the Resident has no sole authority. Although LAOTSE switches open a structure gap in the Paratron screen, only fourteen space landing soldiers and twelve TARAs in Toufec’s accompaniment can penetrate before its closing, and only the one who gave it has the right to repeal the secret command Winter Silence - presumably Henrike Ybarri because the codes of the first Terran were used. However, LAOTSE does agree to disable all combat robots that have not yet been reprogrammed by the Fagesys.

Nevertheless, there is heavy fighting in the Residence, because the events do not remain hidden to Chossom, Marrghiz , Fydor Riordan and Anicee Ybarri. Cleverly, Bully misleads his pursuers, making his presence public, and then locating Henrike Ybarri. However, the First Terran did not activate secret order Winter Silence; it was her daughter. Bully challenges Anicee and makes it clear that the peace efforts have in fact failed. The Facesy's attack on the MANNHEIM proves that Chossom is no longer in control of his own people.

Anicee cancels the secret command is canceled. Now it is easy for the crew of the MANNHEIM to throw the attackers out of the ship. The fleet eliminates the ovoid ships of the Fagesy. The Residence is occupied by Tanny Abro's forces, but the TLD Tower is still being fought for. The Umbrian Council resigns and is placed under house arrest, and LAOTSE is deactivated for safety reasons. Marrghiz and Chossom have disappeared. The solar satellites are switched on again.

On November 28, forty-eight spherical, eighteen kilometer wide structures appear around the Sol system. Delorian explains that they are objects made of modified hypercrystals that his Star Worthy have stolen from QIN SHI With Bull's permission, the obejcts are activated, creating a Sextadim veil that completely shields the Sol system.

Shanda Sarmotte asks Bull for a conversation. She could finally read Toufec's thoughts…

2659 Toufec

No. 2659
Toufec
by Richard Dübell



In the era of the Regent Belshazzar of Babylonia, more than five hundred years before Christ's birth, the oasis city of Tiamat on the edge of the Nefud desert is a haven of thieves. A young man named Toufec, who considers himself the cleverest caravan robber of Tiamat lives there. He works for the mighty " Uncle " who holds his protective hand over Toufec - Toufec suspects he is the illegitimate son of the Uncle. One day, a robbery goes awry due to a mistake by Toufec's younger brother Asincommits. Toufec's spies die and the entire booty is lost. Toufec and Asin barely get away alive. To make up for his failure, Asin walks out into the desert and approaches a sandstorm. He believes in the legend told by Toufec that, according to him, djinns dwell in the sandstorms, fulfilling the wishes of those who succeed in catching them. Toufec must commit treason towards his Uncle to follow Asin, but he cannot find his brother. It is Toufec's fate to die in the sandstorm. But Delorian Rhodan, who knows the course of his life, has other plans for the desert son and saves his life.

Delorian brings Toufec, who believes he is in the hands of a wizard, to the planet Sanhaba in the dwarf galaxy Ecloos with the spaceship TOLBA. On the planet is the city of Aures, a structure that juts into the sixth dimension and is very ill, as it has to feed on peoples’ mental life. Delorian provides this life by procuring new residents for Aures. In return, Delorian is allowed access to the superior technology of the city. It takes a long time and requires some hypno-training until Toufec understands what Delorian is talking about. He will live in Aures from now on. The stay does not hurt him and Aures adapts itself to his wishes. The "genie" Pazuzu (an autonomous conglomerate of microscopic nano-agent robots ), who helps acclimate Toufec, keeps him company. Toufec never gives up the hope of finding Asin one day, who is lost in time, according to Delorian. Toufec spends a long time in cryostasis whenever Delorian is absent.

Two thousand one hundred eighty-two years later, when the year is 1631 AD on the Earth, Toufec learns what his task is. Delorian plans to rescue a few dozen people from the Earth whose death is already determined. For this he needs someone with Toufec's special skills. Toufec brings the doomed people to safety with Pazuzu's help. If necessary, they are replaced by dummies, so-called "imagos". Toufec's first target is Clara Esleve, who is to be burned as a witch at the behest of the Witch Commissar Franz Buirmann in Rheinbach. Toufec travels to Germany during the Thirty Years War and frees the beautiful young woman from the dungeon. He falls in love with her, but ignorantly, Clara considers him a demon.

Centuries later, in December 1960, Toufec has brought a total of fifty-four people to Aures. Toufec receives a companion for his last, particularly difficult assignment: Delorian awakens Clara Esleve from deep sleep. She is now "enlightened" and meets Toufec as a friend. The two are to portray themselves as Americans. Duncan Talbot, a physicist and colleague of Richard Feynman, the father of nanotechnology, must be saved from a falling plane. Contrary to Delorian's instructions, Toufec also saves Caspar Obadiah, a child who reminds him of his missing brother. However, Toufec leaves Caspar on the Earth. Toufec's is sad to see that Clara Esleve is romantically interested in Talbot.

Thus, the Alliance of the Star-Worthy is complete. Further rescues are not possible, because soon the superintelligence ES will intervene in the fortunes of humanity and prevent such manipulations. The Star-Worthy stay in the Slow House in cryo-stasis until Delorian wakes them up for their last mission. This time they are to save the whole Earth...

2660 The Jumping Stars

Die springenden Sterne
The Jumping Stars
by Christian Montillon

Ramoz is overwhelmed by memories of his past. He shares them with Mondra Diamond, who observes how the crystals of the Cold Space slowly merge into a huge face during the narrative.

In the double galaxy Chalkada formed from Dosanta and Zasaonta, the Oraccameos train very talented pilots. Ramoz, one of many aspirants of the Zasa race, wins the respect of Wörgut Gooswarts, the highest-ranked Orccameo, through a risky flight maneuver. He is appointed a full-fledged pilot and receives his ocular thorn. This enables him, among other things, to control two spaceships synchronously. At his request, his friend Sajon, who is not as gifted as Ramoz, receives the same operation. Ramoz learns how to use the hyper-cracks known as Viibad Fissures to quickly get from one place in the galaxy to another. After some time, he manages to control more and more ships at the same time. He learns that the goal of the Oraccameos is to create safe zones in the galaxy filled with hyperphysical chaos - the skeletal beings create miniature universes.

Ramoz basks in glory and honor and receives an improved version of the ocular thorn, but also suffers setbacks. One day he receives a call for help from Sajon. Ramoz's friend had been trying to gain access to a jumping star (a Polyport Trade Star). This was destroyed in the process. Sajon is brought to justice. Seeing how Sajon is being punished, Ramoz finally realizes why he is sometimes plagued by dreams of seeing little, furry predators that only follow their instincts: Sajon receives an injection that turns him into one of those creatures. This is true manifestation of the Zasa race. Their development has been accelerated by the Orccameos through genetic manipulation, and this rapid evolution can be reversed at any time.

After some time, Ramoz receives a visit from a man named Nijas. It turns out to be Sajon, who has once again been transformed into a humanoid. He was pardoned because the Oraccameos need as many pilots as possible. Nijas claims that the Oraccameos seek collective spiritualization and want to become an entity called QIN SHI ("Lord of Faces"), who they claim to exist already and who has made contact with them. While Ramoz gets the assignment to hide a fleet in an anomaly, Nijas is ordered to sacrifice himself to destroy a Trade Star. The first Trade Star damaged by Sajon is being redeveloped by the Oraccameos. Since Ramoz is reluctant to fulfill his own mission, he is subjected to the Reduction process and transformed back into a small furred being. His leggings accommodate projectors to create a stasis field. He is sent via the Polyport network to the Polyport Court Kyon Megas, which bring the Halftrack Changeures to Markanu. There, Ramoz sometime later meets Mondra Diamond.

2661 Anaree

Beitrag von jerrys109 »

Ennerhahl manages tp activate the star jewel that was found with the dying woman they had intially thought was the Cosmocrat servant Samburi Yura. Perry Rhodan touches the star jewel. As a result, the life story of the Proto-Enthone Anaree is projected into his mind. For a day – from shortly before midnight of November 18 until midnight of November 19, 1469 NGE - he is unresponsive to his companions.

Anaree is one of many Proto-Enthones of the Dayfolk, who live in the LUMINOSITY. She looks like a clone of Samburi Yura. It happens time and again that someone from the Dayfolk touches one of the gems that sometimes hang on the trees in their environment. These Proto-Enthones soon disappear without a trace. This is what happens to Anaree, who cannot resist the temptation of a star jewel. She is then suddenly no longer five, but fifteen years old and has an encounter with the Morning Sister Samburi Yura. In the following period Anaree (as others before and after like her) are shaped by Hypno-schooling and intensive training under the guidance of the small android M'ian Mor to become Samburi Yura's bodyguard. She is provided with a battle cocoon, a hyper-energetic web from the arsenal of the Cosmocrats, which makes Anaree invulnerable and can be used by her as a weapon.

Anaree accompanies Samburi Yura on various missions. She secretly observes a meeting of the Cosmocrat servant with Delorian Rhodan, in which the two forge plans in which QIN SHI seems to play a role. Anaree also witnessed Monkey and Alaska Saedelaere entering the LUMINOSITY, and was approached by a projection of the LUMINOSITY onboard computer DAN. DAN makes dark hints and assures Anaree of his help. She receives a star jewel that Samburi Yura does not know exists. On the homeworld of the Lokopters, Anaree realizes that Samburi Yura does not even think about retrieving the BOTNETZ for the Cosmocrats, since then she and Delorian would not be able to use it for their own purposes. At last she learns what Samburi Yura really has planned for her. Since Anaree looks exactly like the Enthone, she is to be put into the hands of QIN SHI. The superintelligence will thereby be made to believe to have made Samburi Yura harmless, trapped in the battle cocoon.

Anaree is captured by QIN SHI. Though safe inside the combat cocoon, her body cells begin to decompose. Anaree knows her death is inevitable, but at least she can entrust the truth to the Star Jewel DAN had given her.
