"Start up the moment you get my signal!" Rhodan repeated calmly. "It all depends on the success we
have with our trip to Arkon. You know I resent dancing to the tune of a machine. According to my
experience with robot brains of Arkonide design they all contain a safety factor which prevents them from
going beyond certain limits. ItтАЩs unlikely that the local brain will behave differently.

"You forget that that same machine has administered a paralysing shock to the Administrator Sergh,"
Khrest interjected excitedly.

"Sure, but it was our fault. IтАЩd intruded into the palace with Bell and Tako. At any rate IтАЩm going to take
a look at that peculiar Imperator. You can bet on that!"

Thora stared at him admiringly with wide eyes. This was the same forceful man she had met for the first
time 13 years ago on TerraтАЩs moon. He had begun to exert his dominance at the outset and little had
changed his attitude ever since.

Tifflor rushed out and the Ganymede soon was caught up in a burst of frantic activity.

Finally Bell couldnтАЩt keep his question any longer and he asked with a growl, "Would you enlighten us,
mastermind, how you figure you can escape with the Gazelle and land on Arkon? If I remember correctly
weтАЩre sitting right in the middle of a battery of field projectors."

"Which however donтАЩt respond to five-dimensional energy frequencies," Rhodan stated dryly. "The
prescription is simple: take a tele-transmitter and zoom away! YouтАЩll admit that not even the Arkonides
have technical achievements like that in their bag of tricks."

Bell was dumbfounded. He closed his eyes and thought:Of course, that fabulous machine from the
planet Wanderer! What else!

"Are you coming with us?" Thora and Khrest heard the question directed to them and exchanged a
quick glance with each other. Rhodan observed Thora blanch.

The telepath John Marshall suddenly perked up and stood stiffly in front of the open door. Rhodan
became apprehensive. Narrowing his eyes he tried to understand what Marshall had discovered.

"Do you plan to land directly on Arkon?" Khrest inquired hesitantly.

"Where else? IтАЩve got to talk to the right people. WhatтАЩs the matter?"

Marshall came slowly closer. RhodanтАЩs brain received his warning impulse at the same moment Thora
decided to reveal her last secret. "IтАЩve no reason to keep silent any longer," she said quietly. "Perry, if
you want to land on Arkon youтАЩll have to decide on which of the planets you can carry out your plans."

Rhodan became more relaxed again when Marshall confirmed that the truth was out. "On which planet?"
he repeated helplessly. "I donтАЩt understand. Arkon is Arkon, or is it?"

"This is something which youтАЩve never been taught in your hypno-training, Perry," Khrest interjected.
"Arkon consists ofthree worlds which are all named Arkon. Arkon #1, the Crystal World, is exclusively
reserved for residential dwellings. #2 serves the Galactic trade, internal industries and agriculture. #3 is
the planet of war where the fleet is stationed and the biggest munitions of the universe are located. It is
