The group walks all through the bunker, the only place the key appearing to fit within some sort of control panel in the middle of a wall seeming linked to nothing.
they would actually start by heading to their chosen spot: one of the larger population centers(i don't know the names of them). they had a cargo they were going to sell to a buyer there, and hopefully do so without being detected.

Markheev waits for the rest of the connections to be made, before he uses a remote to activate the control implant. The test subject jerks once, twice, three times, it bursts into a sitting position, stiff and robotic. -------------------
Konrad Chernikov: "Alright, here's the plan. We'll push towards Kargostov in a mass spearhead, and then branch out to take the surrounding area. While this is done, you and your team will assault the Kargostov nuclear plant. Certain rumors lead me to believe there might also be old nuclear weapons there. I want you to investigate, and retrieve them if possible. Understood?"
"I dunno! I never seen stuff like them before. Hell I'm only the guy who manages the railgun and drives the station."

(I don't know the names either lol) They head to an Unggoy World, the Unggoy, stout, sturdy, and the type of species that doesn't fit in with the others. If something illegal is happening within the Potentate theres a strong likely hood it's done by an Unggoy.
The planetary shield is down, only being up in wartime situations to allow more ease of access for trade between the planets. And a landing bay is open within the depths of the city

“Obtained them?” he asks with a puzzled look, he turns to the now departing trade ship and looks back at the scientist.
“They just gave us a ride here, but there are plenty of master back home with abilities to drive you crazy, I’ve trained for almost as long as they have and haven’t reached their heights.
One master travelled into the void and confronted the traders, that’s why they agreed to bring us here.”
"i think you're lying to me. tell me the truth, or you will regret it. you will not like what i have in store, and its a lot worse than a slap, which you probably liked."
they carefully move in, waiting to turn off their stealth only when they're in the coard of other transport ships and thus can no longer be easily detected.
the Hopper pirate band has long heard of the hidden wealth of an Mtech world, guarded by large automated defenses; only something worth a lot would be guarded so well.
and that was why there were now 12 ships, fast blockade runners, waiting near one, as their scouts looked for the best way to get onto the planet and not get shot to death by the massive automated defenses.

The hangar manager gives an understanding nod to the ship as it passes by, it seems as though the whole city sector is in on the smuggling trade (not just with you) They land in the open hangar and few Unggoy waddle towards you, shady looking fellows that look like they've broken the law since they could waddle their little legs around. One of them snorts to you "You got the goods?"

“Perhaps There’s a way to turn this on? There has to be something.” Shu’Jugla says. He looks around the panel for a way to turn it on. “Try turning the key maybe?”
Gaamak remnants
“Well, okay I guess I should have expected that. If you would like to harness the mysteries of your world and the universe, I can send experts in the scientific fields your way. What do you think?”

Election Results After a long campaign season and many candidates, the most popular candidate has been voted in as emperor. His name is Gak’Hamaal. While he is an average Meklo in many ways, he has excelled in leadership throughout his life. The coronation begins later today, and the Gaa’Mak Empire sends out invitations to all friendly galactic species to join. An assembly will be held at Sanctuary’s capital megacity, the first completed metropolis on the planet, population 250 million. There are gigantic crowds expected. Along with this great day in Gaa’Mak history, the Dyson Swarm around Sanctuary’s star has been completed. This completely removes the need for any other power plants in the system. New resources from mines all over the solar system bring resources into the empire and settlements are now springing up on the other planets in the solar system. The first colony ships to nearby solar systems are expected very soon. The refugees have finally settled into their new home. The Crisis is Over
one of the pirates brings out a box and opens it to reveal the promised cargo; drugs, contraband, body sized pillows, the works. "we expect full payment. now, if you will."

Defense Measures
The automated anti-ship cannons cover the entire area surrounding the planet and are built at regular intervals meaning disabling one wouldn't create the needed hole in the defense to get a large ship through. No facilities other than military bases and the anti-ship cannons appear on the desert world, including power stations to deliver the immense energy that the lasers would need to operate.
Best choice
A small and fast ship would be able to avoid being targeted by the massive lasers, but would still be assaulted by whatever other defense systems existed on the planet.
Gaamak remnants
Gaa’Mak shipyards, for the first time, begin to roar with life. New civilian and military ships are now being produced to ensure that peace can be kept. These ships will make the empire seem less like a vulnerable, easy target. The main “ships” being produced are defense platforms, which should be enough to keep the system safe. Individual ships also are made for individual Meklo, who use them for their own purposes. Things are looking up.
Expansion The Gaa’Mak Empire has a few colony ships filled with Meklo, which are destined for the nearest system. There are two habitable planets in the system, a large ocean world dotted with islands and an alpine world covered in mountains with large ice caps. Preparations begin to claim the system.
Kinmoon finishes their expansion and forcible movement of several populations to far, far outer space. New planets are finally settled and claimed, and ultrafog is utilized alongside construction drones to quickly build up new industrial centers and urbanized areas.

Arrival A new home...
Like an exploding sun, a blinding flash of light fills the system, a wormhole has opened bringing a new species into the galaxy.
A hivemind fleeing an everlasting war in another dimension has found its way into this galaxy, looking to create new life through its love of biological science.
The arriving fleet of the hivemind has set course to the nearest oceanic planet to establish colonies for the greater number of its population, though for now keeping its arrival quiet, the hivemind has launched probes from the fleet to survey more nearby planets for populating.

Terrified that the Annihilators followed them, the Gaa’Mak Empire sends multiple ships to investigate. Although, it appears that this species has suffered a similar fate as the Gaa’Mak Empire.
"To be honest I didn't feel the slap. And about the bots. Uh, well we don have access to most the helios systems. Guy who owned it previous locked it down good and not pyn or me could unlock the damn thing. I dunno HOW she turned those things on or how many them are in there."
Evelyn does her best to pull at panels around the control panel, wrenching one off and falling backwards before reforming. Underneath is a keyhole and large breaker type switch.
Ulysses laughs manically for a few seconds before shutting up and fist pumping the air.
Ulysses: "Hey trep, I know you listen in on this stuff. TAKE THAT YOU AI SON OF A-" ----- Kira: "Understood. I'll have enzo drop me and the best forces I have over the power plant. Mel should be able to set the reactor to scram mode and hijack the nukes while I keep the guards off him. Cass will bring the whole building down after this is over."
The bandit points to an area above the railgun between decks 13 and 14.
