The Bizarre Adventure of Tartaros Fleet

Damn it, I got caught...

Even the dullest person should know what happened to him—it was a psychic attack, a psychic attack from that device.

In the boundless darkness, there is a giant monster as huge as a mountain.It was a squid-like monster, with stubby feet hanging down gently, and several pairs of limbs behind the body gently sliding in the boundless darkness.The six eyes shimmered in the dark, like those glowing microorganisms in the deep sea.Its voice is deafening and hits the heart——

"Your thoughts are mine."

Suddenly, a strong sense of loss of strength caused Shepard to fall to his knees. The ferocious exhaustion reminded him of the training when he just joined the army as a recruit. He just wanted to hug the quilt and fall asleep, never to wake up again. Come.But in the end, he still resisted the strong fatigue, stood up staggeringly, only to find that the huge monster had disappeared, and there was only one person standing in front of him.

That was the head of the Oregana Legion of the Consolidation Department.

"Legion Commander?! This is... no, you are... the Reaper?" Even though he was starting to panic, he still kept his spirits up and pretended to be calm, "Get out!"

It has an abnormally dull expression on its face:

"We can read your memory directly, and we will see your essence at a glance. Shepard."

Hearing this, Shepard couldn't help swallowing.Judging from the edifying ability of the Reaper, this is probably true... This is really bad.Think about it quickly, think about whether there is any way to get out of the predicament... the only thing I can use is 'language'?Although his eloquence is not bad among soldiers who are generally not good at words, Shepard has no confidence in 'persuading' the Reapers.

But this 'false' was denied.

"I'm not the Reapers...the Reapers are the enemy, the enemy who wants us to be exterminated. They're just a copy, we've been around for a lot longer..."

Her voice carried a sense of arrogance out of the era, and an inexplicable sense of decadence, like the last nobleman after the collapse of a dynasty, guarding a narrow and simple old house in the new era, smoking cheap cigarettes and remembering In the past, those who were rich and powerful, sneered at those in power who seized the world, claiming that they were orthodox.

Shepard was amazed by this, as he found himself able to sense the 'emotions' floating in this space.I can feel them easily, just like the eyes see the light and the nose smells the smell, as if I have a special organ to do this job, this feeling has never been felt before.But it also means that the other party will definitely do the same.

He instinctively tried to hide his feelings, and asked bluntly:

"what are you?"

"Higher Beings," it said. "Before the cycle, our race was the top life in the galaxy. The lower races were our slaves, and they had to serve us. We became stronger, and they also got Our care. But we still can't prevent their self-destruction."

Shepard wasn't sure if this was a part of enlightenment, so he told himself in his heart that he must not believe it easily, and then continued to ask:

"why?"

"Over time, some races have been wiped out by machines of their own making - like the quarians driven to death by the geth. Of course the dead will not serve us." The fake Oregana blinked Blinking eyes - those eyes have a flame-like light "In order to solve this problem, we created an intelligence that was ordered to preserve life at all costs..."

Just when Shepard was trying to say something, he suddenly saw another thing appearing, and was immediately speechless.

It was Oregana, who was wearing red light armor and had demon-like flying wings on her back. She looked exactly like this guy in front of her, but she had long hair that she had never seen before, and it was specially combed into two braids hanging behind her head. .

She walked to the back of the 'fake' and stood there, then moved her shoulders and turned her neck like a gangster ready to fight.Not only her, but also some scary-looking things followed behind.For example, a demon with a bright red body and a rusty long sword, with a slender but muscular body, and a straw hat on his head for some reason; It is engraved with the coat of arms seen on the Very Leopard before; for example, a little girl holding a large double-barreled shotgun, with an ominous red and black (harmony) atmosphere lingering all over her body; there is also a flying dragon that looks like steel, Monsters with weapons on their bodies; and girls in long black tuxedos with strangely shaped white helmets and red V-shaped decorations on their chests.

And Liu Lizi, she just glanced at Shepard, then focused her attention on the back of the fake Oregana, and squeezed the big stick in her hand.

The anger in them is genuine.

Oh shit... When this group of people appeared, Shepard still couldn't figure out what happened.Although I was really taken aback and couldn't figure out what happened, but don't panic - I'm afraid her troops have already arrived in Benin, so what you need to worry about is not your own team, but those collectors up.Until now, Shepard can't forget the scene when Saron gave Oregana the axe and ran around all over the ground.

How many collectors have their heads cut off today...

Seemingly noticing the mixed expression of confusion and shock on Shepard's face, the 'fake' sensed something was wrong, and suddenly felt two taps on the shoulder.As soon as it turned its head, a white but hard fist flew towards it.

The fist sank deeply into the face, deforming that face.The fake rolled and fell to the ground, struggling to stand up but was caught by a foot:

"You're the one who said the forbidden phrase 'at all costs' to AI, right? You bastard! It's your fault that this world has become like this!! You guys really have face without trying to solve the problem! Useless!!" Oregana was full of trembling anger, kicking and kicking the 'thing' that fell on the ground, "Don't stand still! Hit! This is because the consciousness is not the body, and it can't be killed! Beat us hard! Beat him to death!! This guy deserves to be beaten!! You are fucked up today, let me tell you!"

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Fists, heels, inverted elbows, hooves, gun stocks, and sticks, fell like raindrops towards 'that thing', blood and flesh flew all over the face, it was horrible... But just like Oregana said, here is Invincible.So Shepard saw that this guy was gradually beaten into shape...

I don't know what happened, and what Oregana said seems to have some deep meaning, but this time, there is probably no way to ask clearly.Anyone with a clear mind knows that when violent gangs beat people, ordinary people passing by should never go over and pull a person to ask what happened, so he found a random place to sit and watch, waiting for them to fight After the fight, everything will probably be clear after that.

That would definitely be a shocking news... so let yourself relax right now, clear your mind, and watch the beautiful girls fight for a while. (sit down)

But at this moment, there was a blunt and heavy impact from behind, followed by severe pain that made people curl up uncontrollably. The warm liquid slid down from behind, quickly taking away the body temperature.Immediately afterwards, the boundless darkness surged up with a terrifying momentum...

The ancient past, the colossal blunders, the secrets that have shaped the world for millions of years...

The fate of reincarnation has strangled the throat of the Creator, the stars are shining and burning, boiling and shaking, and the power in the shadows will help it return again!

Please, don't die, Shepard!If you fall here, what will you do with the agreement between humans and the Citadel?What about the people who depend on you?

next time!Shepard's death!

Chapter 1216 Chapter 234: Death of Shepard!

Because of the activities of the collectors, the situation in Benin is heading for chaos—but our side has controlled the orbit and the surrounding space, and the troops responsible for the ground combat are UNSC, and there are still four Spartans in it, even if It is fighting inside the city, and they can handle it very well.These special soldiers with excellent abilities are best at short-distance street fighting.

When it comes to fighting an enemy with powerful firepower while covering the evacuation of civilians in a city with a large number of civilians, there is nothing comparable to UNSC except for the elite guards.Therefore, Oregana believed that her target, that is, the Salari with superb hacking skills had a [-]% chance of surviving.

If you're lucky, you'll be able to participate in the end of the battle when you're in position, and chop off the heads of a few collectors or something.

She wiped the blade of the chopping ax in her hand, and hung it on the hanging point on her back waist.Due to the changes in the nervous system of this clone, the heavy armor that was originally compatible with itself could not function normally. The neural channels that were originally used to control the extra posture controller and shield generator of the heavy armor now give way to the power amplifier and the shield generator. Nerve radiator, if you continue to use heavy armor, your mobility and defense will be greatly reduced.

So Oregana changed into the regular armor that was originally assigned to psionic soldiers, and only the helmet part was modified to accommodate the extra heat dissipation system.But this does not mean that there has been a cliff-like decline in combat effectiveness-the defensive part can be solved with a kinetic energy barrier, and I even have several more short-range attack methods and mental attack capabilities.

It is a great thing to be able to test performance with low-intensity actual combat.

"I'm about to arrive at the target galaxy." Liu Lizi leaned on the captain's seat, which was much larger than her body, and she seemed to like the feeling of "a young vampire sitting on the throne of an ancient castle" recently.

Everyone likes it. (nod)

"Boss, are you planning to use this equipment to attack?"

"Well, it's better to hit the sun than choose the day." Oregana inserted the grenade pistol into the hanger next to her leg. "I heard they said that civilians and collectors are mixed together?"

[That's right, the brain worm Apophis released the nerve paralysis drug, and the marines decided to make a quick decision. 】In the Ganaku airdrop area, Monica is throwing the equipment into the 'pipe fox' [Shepard and his party went to the Institute of Geology to recover the operating 'equipment'. 】

Miranda Rosen looked nervously at the jumping data on the electronic board in her hand:

"Are you sure you can resist the indoctrination of the Reapers?" She fiddled with her collar. "If the troops are taken away by the Reapers, it will be over!"

Miranda's worries are not unreasonable, no one is not afraid of such things as mind control.Since ancient times, mind control has been the most feared - many people can accept that they are no longer human beings, but they cannot accept that they are no longer themselves, and previous intelligence, research, and various evidences have shown that the reaper Possesses the ability to make people no longer themselves.Even a person as wise as Ghost agent Saren or as mentally tough as the matriarch Benezia cannot resist enlightenment.

Although Cerberus obtained the research data on the wreckage of the Overlord from the Star Alliance, there was no way to develop sufficient and effective protective equipment in a short period of time.And the current plan of the Citadel of God is - because the enlightenment of the overlord will take some time to take effect, so the soldiers should not be separated from them for such a long time, and use battleships to solve most of the problems...

Then a lot of resources are used to develop a new generation of warships, and everyone is currently spending a lot of money on the technology of directed energy weapons.

The Phantom Man scoffed at this.The current tactics of the collectors are to fight guerrillas and challenge the colonies to attack. The Consolidation Department also uses guerrilla fleets to fight, but from the perspective of Benin, it is impossible to prevent a thousand days of thieves without leaking water. The Ministry of Consolidation dispatched a fleet that tripled, and there was no way to support all the mass repeaters.The number of warships of the Collectors is the same thing, and it can be prevented at present, but what about the Harvesters?

The Consolidation Department's hole cards have not yet been played, and they must have a way to confront the Reaper army head-on-they used to fight monsters like the Dark Worm, if the large fleet is not strong enough to fight decisively, it will be gone long ago.But what if the Reapers don't fight your frontal fleet?It gives you a whole galaxy in full bloom, attacking thirty, forty, or even fifty colonies at the same time in one breath, and even directly hitting the earth directly from the mass relay of the solar system, do you think the reaper can do it?

Of course Natmeow can do it, if you can't do it, you will be a ghost.

Can you stop them all?

It’s a ghost if it can be stopped... The Star Alliance has deployed the main fleet at the base of Arcturus, which blocks the way to the earth. That is to say, no matter how lucky you are, you can barely protect the earth. There is no way at all.A large number of residents are controlled and fierce and long ground battles will inevitably occur. The residents and troops in the occupied area will be trapped on the ground to coexist with the Reapers for a long time-if they can survive until the reinforcements arrive, and this time It could be hours, days, or even months.

It is imperative to study the indoctrination of the Reapers and develop spiritual protection equipment. The Ministry of Consolidation has gone a long way in this regard...but Miranda is still worried because they have just faced the Reapers, a new enemy.

But Oregana is confident about it:

"The enlightenment strength of the Reaper is not a particularly powerful thing. Our individual mental protection system is equivalent to the frontal armor of the King Tiger tank to the 75mm main gun of the Sherman tank." She moved a little wrist "not to mention the more vulnerable collectors."

Before Miranda could say anything, the radar analyst said:

"There are still 3 minutes to reach the target! The energy in the subspace is very messy, and the negative emotions fluctuate strongly, which is in line with the situation of war!" She reported loudly, her eyes scanned the rows of curves and numbers, and suddenly frowned, "Huh?"

"what happened?"

She sent the data to Oregana's terminal with a puzzled expression:

"Look at this - there's a psychic link that spreads far in the Warp, and it's spread out radially across Benin. We can't intervene remotely, have to get close enough!"

"Is it remote control?"

In the original work, there is a reaper, which is the mind of the reaper, the oldest and strongest harbinger pioneer (Harbinger, commonly known as "Harbinger"), which can operate the collector's pawns through remote mind control. At this time, the collector The pawns can also get part of its tiles, and immediately change from an ordinary iron cannon ashigaru to a samurai general, which left a deep impression on the players in the game.

Of course, the impression left on the players on easy difficulty is relatively rough-because the Collector pawn controlled by this guy has a transformation process of about two seconds, and the transformation state is not invincible, so it is often given when transforming. The big sniper shot collapsed, and when the transformation ended, the person disappeared... (far eye)

Oregana's first reaction was of course Ha Bing...Ha Bin was controlling from a long distance, playing the operation of 'move this Sijin 50 meters to the left', and then planned to say, 'This Binbin is a scumbag' , the results look at the data...

its not right.

When the troops and the collectors fought each other before, they recorded the energy response and transmission waveform, but now at least [-]% of the comparisons are completely inconsistent.The mental strength of the 'controller' is very high, but the method is simpler and purer, just like... a prototype.

Binbin's prototype...isn't that Leviathan? !Leviathan's mental attack is so strong that it can suppress the Reaper!

Oregana's thoughts stopped for half a beat, and she quickly grabbed the communicator, then threw the communicator aside with a click, and walked to the Khorne crest engraved on the wall:

"Prepare for a super-level mental confrontation! The opponent may be Leviathan! We need to suppress Leviathan's combat power!"

--------------

[We need to suppress Leviathan's combat power!Let the devil get ready, and those who work in the field should also change their equipment.Ready to open the door with our coordinates. 】

In the core area of ​​the Skullmaker Fortress, Dapras put the paper cup with a string to his ear, and replied with a serious face:

"Come whoever can come? I know!" The servo skull on her right shoulder turned around, dragging the data cable and flying into another room. "Z sauce! Stop playing the video! Get ready to work!"

"Is it the boss!" Z sauce suddenly stood up with a happy expression, "I'll go to Ganaku right away! The long-lost world of two~"

"It hasn't been long, and it's not a two-person world." The jaw of the servo skull clicked. "You two don't sit still, Minerva, miso."

"Huh?" The girl who looked very similar to Z-chan, but with a black pocket on her head and a red little devil crest showed a surprised expression, "Isn't it the end this time?"

"Woo... I don't want to move..." On the other side, a girl with long blue hair and an expressionless face put down the handle, and on the screen Shepard (female) was fighting with a spherical drone that emitted lasers. It was too much, and he yawned a lot, "Ha~~~~ I will hit the collector base soon~~"

"Attack strength is only 10, so there is really no drama!" Z sauce slapped the younger generation on the forehead, and ran towards Ganaku with great interest.

In the Ganaku, the eyes of the three demon gods lit up one by one.

"Ready to go! The invincible power exists for me! The hearts of justice are all in the back row!!"

--------------

Just as Shepard touched Ashley's shoulder, before he could finish speaking, he collapsed and fell into the muddy water on the ground with a bang.

Everyone thought it was a sniper attack from around, Lex grabbed Shepard and dragged him into the bunker, Tully hurriedly checked if there was a hole in his torso - but there was nothing.He fell headfirst as if he had been hit by Avada Kedavra suddenly, blood trickled down his nostrils and dripped into the helmet.

"Shepard! Shepard!" Ashley also came to her senses. She looked around nervously, pointing her guns at locations where the enemy might be hiding. "Damn it! What's wrong?! What's wrong with him?" ?!"

"Indoctrination!? He's been tricked!" Liana took off Shepard's helmet with trembling hands, and held his face. "I'm going to drag him out!"

Of all the people here, only Liana has the deepest understanding of enlightenment—there are not many people who really know Benezia, and Liana is definitely one of them.Even her own mother, a matriarch who has lived for nearly a thousand years and has sufficient knowledge and tenacious will, also failed, and Liana was also skeptical about whether she could resist.

But mere meddling can at least disturb the opponent... if only for a moment, and then use this opportunity to wake Shepard to retreat.
