46 - Transactions with Arkon-Steel Rescue or annihilation of the Earth? - The memory datas of a board positronic will be the deciding factor... Despite Perry Rhodans energetic proceeding on Aralon, are the galactic medical professionals not ready to throw the towel and make plans to destroy Rhodan respectively Terra. Gegul, responsible for Aralon´s security, is leading involved in the planning and soon Ara-couriers go across the galaxy to contact the Springer Patriarchs. Rhodan has meanwhile received holiday from the Robot Regent, but is, before he can leave M 13, asked by his new friend Talamon for an interview. This reported, that the Springers are blackmailed by the Aras to destroy Terra and that in the near future a meeting of the Patriarchs will take place in a yet unknown location. He offers Rhodan his honest intentioned aid, which in turn offers as cash Arkon-T-Steel from the spaceship graveyard Honur and gives Talamon a respite. The Aras determine in the meantime Laros, 18. moon of the planet Gom in the Gonom System, for venue, where their large, partly secret laboratories are located. They assume, that they have here enough resources available, to protect the planned meeting against any disturbing events, because they have learned the lessons drawn from the events around Goszul´s Planet. Rhodan and Talamon will be in agreement. In a first joint action, they deceive the Robot Regent and the Springers the departure of the TITAN and GANYMED to Terra. While the GANYMED, protected by their Structure Compensator, actually flies to Earth, the TITAN hides 8,000 lightyears from Arkon away until it picks up hypercom messages, that indicate a new crime of the Aras. In order to verify the information, the Terrans fly to the planet Exsar, which is inhabited by the sole Springer-clan, who refused to send a Patriarch to the meeting. Lieutenant Julian Tifflor reaches the planet with a Gazelle and convinces with his own eyes from the 3-hour-rhythm-plague, which has infected the planet as a punishment by Gegul. Two hundred thousand people perish per day from this illness. Tifflor informed with the hypercom station of the planet the Milky Way. Subsequently, the TITAN moves back to Honur. The Aras disclaim any connection with the illness and send free, as a sign of their goodwill, a medical ship with more than 6,000 physicians and all stocks of g/Z 45, the only antidote. The damage caused is enormous and Gegul is condemned in a summary procedure to death in the converter and executed. But his plan for the destruction of Terra is consistently pursued, now under the leadership of Chief-Biologist Keklos, who is resident on Laros. This is the most brilliant biologist of his people. In massive test series and cruel experiments, he tries one hand to explore the secret of eternal life, and developes the other hand the so-called Bios from the enigmatic basic substance of Gom: highly resistant organic creatures with just enough intelligence. From Talamon informed about time and place of the meeting, Rhodan goes into the Gonom System and smuggles with the help of the Springer a Gazelle with the mutants Ivan Ivanovich Goratschin, Kitai Ishibashi, Tako Kakuta, John Marshall, Wuriu Sengu, Betty Toufry, Ras Tschubai and Tama Yokida, under the leadership of Reginald Bull, to Laros. The most compelling goal - that not even does know Talamon - is the manipulation of the memory sector of the only alien positronic with the valid position data of the Earth in Topthor´s flagship. Although the mutants are repeatedly attacked by an unknown paranormal power, the complicated project succeeds and Terra is now the third planet of the Betelgeuse System, 272 lightyears away from its actual location. Subsequently, the mutants disturb also the meeting, but they can no longer influence the voting result in Terra´s favor and are also brutally attacked more and more. At the last minute they succeed to escape with the Gazelle from Laros. The actions of the mutants do not remain hidden to Keklos. He even discovered Talamons double game, but he can prove nothing without revealing the secret of the basic substance. In addition, Topthor, Talamon´s best friend, stands up massively for him, even if he also suspects that Perry Rhodan has a finger in the pie. But on one hand, Topthor is just as angry about the machinations of the Aras and on the other, Talamon has asked him to participate in a business with high profits in prospect. In space, the Gazelle is suddenly captured by immensely strong telekinetic powers and forced to crash on Gom. Marshall can just inform Gucky fragmentary about the most important before he faints. Rhodan, which may reveal his presence in no case to protect Terra, remains no other choice than to wait for the end of the meeting and the further developments on Gom.
