The Bizarre Adventure of Tartaros Fleet

Even if the beach is unable to move, the Tsiolkovsky has the hull and artillery of a battleship after all, and not all miscellaneous fish can come up to provoke it.However, due to the angle of the beach, it was difficult for the secondary battery to fire on the ground. This caused the ground troops of the geth robots to rush into the ship three times, and the battle was extremely tense.And when the marines of Ghost Fox Fairy landed, the situation immediately stabilized.

The geth droids were shredded by bolters and particle rifles in an instant, falling in rows like wheat before a scythe like imperial recruits before the elite Fiona warriors of Batonia.

Recalling the battle just now, Captain Yang Sili sighed heavily:

"It's almost over."

At this moment, he was standing on the open space that was just a battlefield, surrounded by fallen trees, and the remains of robots scattered everywhere. After opening the mask, his nostrils were immediately filled with a burning smell.The marines with cat claws and Khorne skull decorations on their shoulder armor were busy, and the sound of the engine of the medical transport plane produced by the Tyranid Empire echoed in their ears, giving people a sense of peace of mind like the survivors.

Even Ansari Wind, the adjuster little shrew who usually kept making troubles, now calmed down, yawned, and waited obediently for the transport plane to transport him to the hospital ship.In fact, if it is quiet, it is quite cute...

Just thinking about it, a marine walked by. Judging from the shoulder armor with extra patterns on her shoulders, she was a squad commander.During the battle, her helmet was damaged, so she continued to fight wildly in the second half. Judging from the white pointed ears on the top of her head, it might be the lotus seeds of a fox—I heard that Oregana’s army commander’s guards were full of them. cats and foxes.

But whatever her personal tastes, the soldiers were really good.

It’s just that Yang Sili guessed wrong. Commander Muye Lanhua was not a fox’s lotus seed but a wolf’s lotus seed—but there’s nothing she can do if she’s mistaken, because even she thought she was a fox before entering school:

"Well done, the average person wouldn't have survived. And there were no dead. It's remarkable."

Yang Sili didn't think he could get the evaluation of 'remarkable'. Although everyone did their best, it can only be attributed to luck that the injury was so slight after going through such a tragedy.The most seriously injured person was a damage control officer. When the damage control officer landed, his legs were crushed by the twisted and deformed corridor. Before that, no one guessed that the entire corridor would suddenly collapse. The entire team did not fully The reason for the extinguishment was also because it was bound by a suddenly falling cable and thrown to the other end of the corridor.

It is a mystery why the cable is thrown out with actions that do not conform to the laws of physics after it falls.It's just that the people who were rescued later found that there was a strange sticky substance on their armor, but they haven't had time to check what it is.

He didn't think about it, and pushed the rescued storage device (the size of the ice cream freezer in his hometown) to Kino Lanhua:

"It's just luck. This is the data when the accident happened. Fortunately, the storage device was not damaged."

"At that time, you marked that newly discovered element as [G-like element]?"

"Well, because the nature of the appearance is somewhat similar, it is too late to give an official name." Yang Sili replied, "I think it is because of this reason that we were suddenly teleported."

In addition to combat personnel, Kino Lanhua is also a technical kid, and she excitedly connected the data cable:

"Oh——! Let me take a look!" The data shows that these detected cloud-like particle clouds have been polluted by the subspace, but their properties have not changed much. Its activation results in a space warp.She records the data and sends it to the very leopard, where someone will compare it with the 'zero element' found in the debris in orbit, and investigate whether this is the zero element used to activate the mass effect field After the erosion of the subspace, the results of mutations are produced.

But at this moment, Muye Lanhua noticed an orange object dangling not far behind Yang Sili's heel, and it looked like it was in a bad mood and frequently stretched its claws at Yang Sili's heel.It looks furry, with black stripes, eight legs, and a cat-like head.

What the hell is this? !

"Ok?"

Kino Lanhua frowned and grabbed the guy.After being lifted up, this wonderful creature kicked its eight legs wildly, bent its tail, stared at the person who was lifting it up in front of it, and let out a dissatisfied 'meow' sound.

Yang Sili turned around - isn't this what he saw in his dream before? !

"Ah!! Do you know... what this is?"

Kino Lanhua also showed a puzzled expression:

"Well... this is a warp creature, it seems to be fascinated by you. But the file shows that you are not a psyker."

Take a closer look, isn't this the guy who cast a net on the beacon to help spread the signal?

Creatures of the Warp seldom approach humans. In these 'rare' cases, most of those who are approached are psykers. The reason is simple-the soul projection of psykers is like a delicacy to creatures in the non-material world. delicious food.In essence, this closeness is the same reason that the mosquito sauce buzzing on a summer night is very close to you.

Moreover, if a subspace creature absorbs energy, it will not be able to appear in the material universe, whether it is a powerful subspace demon or a general subspace creature—except for a guy with plenty of tiles like the void whale—if you don’t By virtue of the power of psykers, they cannot even assume a form in the physical universe.Even if you want to stick with ordinary people, it is physically impossible.

Yang Sili is also very aware of this, he himself does not have any spatial recognition ability:

"I'm not, so why...?"

Could it be that...at that time...

Before he could think about it, Kino Lanhua took out a device similar to an infrared temperature gun and put it on his head:

"Please relax...you are indeed a psyker now, and the energy waveform...is almost exactly the same as element zero?!"

"?!"

In space, the aftermath work has already begun.

The rescue ship 'Hom' sailed among the wreckage and debris. The wide-area life detection radar scanned the uncooled wreckage, and then a specially-made drone stepped forward to open a hole in the damaged spaceship to 'take out' the survivors. ——That was indeed 'taking out' rather than a more gentle 'rescuing', as if Melissa Mao used a chainsaw sword to pull a bomb out of an airliner.

This is the result of putting the risk of secondary injury and the risk of staying in the boat for a long time on both ends of the scale. In many cases, people do not have a [-]% safe solution to solve the problem.If the degree of damage to the ship is not high and it is only incapacitated, then you can take it slowly, but now there are fragmented cruisers hit by the flagship bombardment everywhere, and you have to act quickly if you want to save lives.

Luo Jule originally only thought of coming to save the crew of the scientific research ship, but now he is doing his best to save all the remaining soldiers of a fleet.Looking at the tragedy in front of him, he couldn't help but think of the day when Heliopolis was destroyed - at that time, his attention was all on the two heretics he discovered, and the series of battles that followed made it even more timeless think……

When everything settled down, I occasionally wondered, in that ruins, were there any survivors who hadn't had time to escape from being trapped inside?I am afraid there are.It was a city full of citizens who were used to false peace and didn't think about anything, and the reliability of the escape system was not that high. After warships and mobile suits took turns making noise inside the colonial satellite, how many equipments were there? It is also unknown whether it can operate normally, and it is also unknown whether the escape cabin can sail normally.

How many of those trapped inside persisted until the rescue team arrived dozens of hours later?

After that, even though he was threatened by the mercenary, he still insisted on repairing the destroyed ship outside Artemis... How much of this is due to a change in mentality, which even Luo Jule himself can't figure out .He landed on a cruiser, prepared the rescue gel with his left hand, and the cutter with his right hand, quickly cut a hole at the place marked by the alignment system, and then quickly applied a layer of gel.

In the next moment, the air pressure inside engulfed the crew members who were sealed in the cabin and fell into the gel. The gel was blown by the gushing air, and then fell off like a child blowing soap bubbles. The trapped crew members It was well contained in this layer of gel.Lo Joel dropped the 'bubble' and immediately a drone grabbed the bubble and dragged it to the nearest rescue boat.

"There were heavy casualties." He sighed. "The enemy only had one ship, but they wiped out the entire fleet. The gap in technology is too obvious."

The professor who was operating the scanning system lit a cigarette and responded casually:

"Yeah...and ours."

"what?"

"If the head of the legion brings the dreadnought, we will be able to salvage the hull of that ship later instead of the removed secondary guns."

really……

The flagship marked as 'Overlord' was besieged by the Poseidon-class cruiser fleet and was beaten into a rather embarrassing situation. Although it fought back with all its strength, it failed to sink even a single Poseidon-class. Instead, it was washed all over by the cruiser's main guns. Scarred, and two mechanical tentacles equipped with secondary guns were shot down.Its main gun is indeed powerful, but it is meaningless if it cannot hit the strongest attack. In addition, the protection is really fragile. Although the ability to adjust the protection method according to the situation is a bright spot (even relying on this to save life), but... …

If there is a Divine Revelation class dreadnought ship on the battlefield, it will not have time to adjust its protection methods.It's over if it can withstand three rounds of salvo at most.

If this is the highest level of combat power in this universe, then the head of the Oregana Legion doesn't need to worry too much—unless it has any special secrets, or there are a lot of them.

But that's not something you should think about.

Right now, it will take more than three hours for the human troops in this world to come to support them, and the only ones who can save lives here are their own team and the guard of the head of Oregana's army.Rescue here will inevitably have a series of benefits-the human civilization of this world, that is, the Star Alliance, will definitely be grateful for this kind of help, but Luo Jue himself has not thought about it that much for the time being.

He was just trying to save lives.

But the medical facility on the Home was unable to treat a fleet of wounded soldiers, so it was the big guy's turn to play—

[Please avoid route A112, the medical ship 'Senica' is about to end its jump. 】

"learn."

[Three, two, one. 】

When the Nestor-class battleship ended its short subspace voyage and entered the orbit of Eden, the eyes of the Star Alliance soldiers in the bubble were straightened.

————————————————————

Dreadnoughts—the name of the most powerful warships in this universe, they are flagship-class warships with a length of a thousand meters, equipped with heavy long-range firepower weapons.Such expensive and powerful warships are only used in the most important missions, and there are not many of them.For example, the Star Alliance currently has only six dreadnoughts in service.

Based on the potential military desires of each race and the maintenance of the current balance of power, the Citadel Council races signed a treaty called the "Farixon Treaty" at the Farixen Naval Conference. Just like the Washington Naval Treaty signed on Earth in 1922, the number of dreadnoughts for each civilization is proportionally limited.The specific rule is that the ratio of dreadnoughts between turians and the other two council races and council cooperative races is 5:3:1.That is to say, the Turians can build five dreadnoughts, the Asari and Salari can build three, and other races—for example, humans can build one.

Although everyone other than Turians is cheating in various ways, for example, the Asari relied on their own high technology to build a battleship with a long axis of 900 meters and insisted that this is a dreadnought. For example, humans thought about it It was discovered that the kilometer-class aircraft carrier was not considered a dreadnought, so a batch of kilometer-class aircraft carriers was built, but in any case, one thing is certain, that is, this kind of warship is definitely not a high-end commodity.

Three kilometer-class warships have appeared in front of the captain of the Normandy, David Anderson. This self-proclaimed commander of the Tartarus Legion of the Ministry of Civilization has invested three dreadnought-class warships on the Eden star. From her quiet and indifferent expression, it can be clearly seen that she really doesn't take these ships very seriously.

It's as if it's not a dreadnought, but a frigate that can be touched casually.The captain of an aircraft carrier lost a carrier aircraft more than she lost a thousand-meter warship.

Oregana was sitting in the captain's cabin of the Normandy, introducing in detail the Civilization Circle of the Consolidation Department and the reason why they were united.Those contents made Anderson feel that this guy was telling a fairy tale, but the other party was still able to produce evidence-they knew nothing about the mass effect field and zero element, and there was no equipment based on this basic technology. , their soldiers are equipped with high-caliber live-fire weapons and particle beams, shields and power furnace technology that make them feel as if they are from another world.

That's right...they're from another world. (cover face)

Now the situation is complicated—first, the mission may have failed. Although Shepard and the others are still looking for the Prothean relic on the ground, judging from the explosion just now, it may have been blown into ashes; Sarah's betrayal, Anderson knew that Saren hated humans, but the behavior of a ghost represented the will of the council, and their mission was above personal thoughts. If Nerus didn't know about it, then Anderson would You will feel that this is the parliament's black hands against human beings; then the defense of Eden star was broken, and this gap cannot be filled in a short time; the last is the biggest trouble, the Ministry of Consolidation.

In the final analysis, does the Star Alliance have the authority to bypass the Citadel Council and directly conduct diplomacy with another political system?Have it?do not have it?

But whether there is or not, Anderson can see the goodwill of the Consolidation Department-now the wounded are being rescued on the ground and in space, and it is the people of the Consolidation Department who are rescuing the wounded.As a soldier who has gone through life and death many times, Anderson is very grateful for this rescue.This kind of initial communication is much better than the communication with the Turians in the 'Shanxi' space colony.

The millet in the 'Shanxi' space colony is one of the best in the universe, but it only feeds humans, not Turians, who eat them and send them to rescue. (far eye)

Thinking about these messy but unavoidable questions in her mind, the girl in red and gold two-color armor in front of her had already finished her work. She took two sips from the water glass handed by the adjutant, and let out a heavy 'ha--':

"We're done talking, and that's about it."

"I have to..." Anderson nodded. The middle-aged man looked a bit haggard. "Can you give me some more time? Just a few minutes, I need... to think about it."

"No problem." Oregana shrugged and embraced the cat circling around the chair. "Now we still have time."

The other cat seemed very interested in Nilus, who was covering his shoulders. It walked up to the Rabbit Man, stretched out its paw and patted it twice. As soon as the ghost agent bent down, the big cat jumped to the ground with amazing agility. Two meters away, I will stroll back after a while, and I will never tire of coming and going.

The search operation is still going on, and Shepard should still be tossing around for a while.Medical support has also started, and there is nothing to do by yourself for the time being.Oregana sat with her legs crossed, focusing all her energy on diplomatic activities-humans in this world can't speak much at this point in time, and the prestige of the Consolidation Department and the Star Alliance will only exist Between the Ministry of Consolidation and the Star Alliance, it will not become the prestige of the Council of the Citadel, but this will be a breakthrough point for him to contact the Council of the Citadel.

"It's going to be troublesome after this." Kaiden's face was still covered with thick scalding medicine, and his frowning look obviously came from the complexity of the current situation and the pain in his face. "The fleet protecting Eden Star was defeated by a ship. Our more than 30 ships are all gone, and now it is difficult for the Star Federation to prepare a force immediately to protect the safety of this galaxy."

"And the geths have also started to move around, and it will be very dangerous if left unattended." Nilus also said, "They haven't come out for hundreds of years, this may be the beginning of a large-scale attack..."

In this regard, Oregana said:

"Our fleet will be here temporarily - to protect our property, lifting that ship from the bottom of gravity's well is no easy task, and we don't want anyone to touch her until we're done with it .”

Going beyond the Citadel Council to protect the subordinate races of the Citadel Council would be regarded as a provocation, and Oregana did not want this kind of misunderstanding to happen.If the other party didn't offend or threaten me, then I have no reason to break other people's rules.Contact the Citadel Council and explain to them the threat of the Reapers, and then discuss with the Citadel slowly before deciding what to do—this plan is currently used as a benchmark for action.

But the defense of Eden Star is now a vacuum. In order to prevent possible attacks—although there is no such thing in the original work, but who can guess what the overlord thinks—Oregana needs to deploy troops near Eden Star, so the reason is to use 'Protecting the wreckage of the scientific research ship' is just right, both sides have steps to go down.This move is somewhat similar to the mooring ships in the solar system in the mass effect world before, the difference is that one is to help the allies to support the action scene, and the other is to find a step for everyone.

Anderson immediately understood the meaning of this sentence, and he said:

"I'll report it to the Star Federation, it's a reasonable request."

"I must also report this matter to the Citadel Council immediately—whether it's the start of the Geth's activities or Saren's betrayal." Nerus had given up on catching cats. "There is also the matter of the Ministry of Consolidation."

"That's right." Joker sat back on the swivel chair, muttering in a low voice, "The Citadel Council may not react yet..."

Oregana asked:

"When are we leaving for the Citadel?"

"After three hours, we will finally search for the wreckage of the Prothean ruins. The legion leader..."

As soon as Anderson spoke, he fell silent, as if he was considering his words.

"Why are you so hesitant to speak?"

After a long time, he glanced at Nilus before he made up his mind and said slowly:

"The Citadel Council controls the entire universe. Azali, Turians, and Salari have established an order together. They don't want anyone to destroy this order, no matter what those people look like—whether it's a guy who is exactly like a human, or A ferocious race with a height of [-] meters and a whole body of hair."

"We think so." Oregana waved her hand, "But we don't want to disrupt the order here."

"It doesn't matter what you think, because you have this ability, and the attitude of the Citadel council will be decided by the council itself." Anderson said, "The news has reached the Citadel, and they should be thinking about what to do now. "

"What do you think the council will think?"

Oregana looked at the only non-human cosmic being present, the Turian agent.But Nilus did not answer directly, his jaw moved slightly, and finally sighed softly.
