The Bizarre Adventure of Tartaros Fleet

Crazy doctor Black Jack said:

"There are undeniable traces of dark worm infection, and a very small amount of dark worm energy reaction." She pointed to the bottom of the bottom, "It all comes from the bottom of the vertical well of the abyss. I think this should be used as evidence-the things left by the dark worm there Still alive, it hasn't been wiped out. But the infection is limited to the vertical well, there aren't any infected individuals outside."

"Hmm... Although I have prepared for it, there is still something I don't understand."

"How about looking at this?" She handed another piece of information to Oregana, "This is the biometric data of some local people scanned now, including those captives who have been carefully inspected—all of them are potential Psyker."

The so-called potential psykers refer to [psychics who have not been officially discovered by the authorities] in some places, but in the Ministry of Consolidation, this word means people who have the talent of psykers, but they don't know it themselves.There is a very simple way to distinguish potential psykers from ordinary people:

Find a Kewpie, throw it in front of people and smell it.If this guy stands up and says 'Make a contract with me and become a magical girl! ', that's right, the potential psykers are right-yes, they will say the same when they see men, mainly because after experiencing the mental shock caused by Amuro Ray, the Cupids have already figured out how to make men also A technique to become a magical girl.But it must be matched with Kampfer (or translated as 'Kempfer') mobile armor to be effective.

And Tartarus used the technology of the Tyrannian Empire to detect potential psykers.The Tyranid Empire once used DNA profiling and unique scanning techniques to determine whether a newborn had psychic potential.If they are found to have psychic potential, they will be recruited into special institutions. While cultivating their psychic abilities, they will also undergo military training and body modification surgery. In the end, these people will be cultivated into superhuman beings who will frighten both the enemy and their own people. Warrior, also known as Ghost Agent.

This technique is quite proficient, and the Tartarus Naval Academy also uses this technique to find psychic individuals from new students for specialized training.And the result of using this technology in the current galaxy is that there are all potential psychics here, but its civilization does not have the feeling of a psychic civilization—such as the Putuo Temple.

Oregana's mood sank slightly:

"Is it the same as Nascatron back then?"

"Well, this is the structure of the brain - the captain's, the silver-haired sister's, and those two cult soldiers with guns." Black and white fox Jack sent data packets one after another to Ao Lei Janna, and marked in the picture "This cluster of synapses that looks like a tumor that has stopped growing has nothing to do but suppress the individual's psionic energy. This structure is an additional structure written into the DNA Yes, like a cover, 'covering' the psionic talent."

"It's almost exactly the same as the dark worm's neural structure..." Oregana saw several familiar neural structures inside, "but it's completely composed of the human nervous system, just simulating that effect. Because it doesn't contain deep The organization of the dark worm, so our sensors cannot detect the signal of the dark worm..."

"That's it." Black Jack took out another scanned image while speaking.

In that image, the neural structure used to shield the psychic response appeared in the brain in another form—it looked like a piece of seaweed, quietly laid in the groove circuit of the cerebral cortex:

"Here's the psyker's, with the cap removed and the synapses turned into forms that power psionics. And the same thing for Parisio's, but Parisio's 'cap' Not all of them are opened, just some of the neural structures are gone. They obviously come from different planets, and the DNA has changed to adapt to the slightly different environments of each planet, but these structures are the same."

"Tsk... what about the analysis of the DNA spectrum?"

"A large part of it has been analyzed." Black Jack's face was covered with a layer of haze. "From the current results, although it looks like a human, the genes have been changed beyond recognition."

Oregana could understand why Black Jack suddenly changed his face.

The analyzed DNA data is very complicated, with a large number of inactivated recessive fragments mixed in, this feeling is like analyzing the gene chain of the cursed child, no wonder Blackjack feels uncomfortable.

"Lots of inserts."

"Yeah, the obvious traces of gene editing, the randomness is very low, and they are written like this on purpose." The fox said, "These fragments can be activated, and after activation, the life body will change immediately—it doesn't matter if the restrictions in the brain are suddenly lifted, the body It doesn’t matter if something grows on the body, just like the cursed son’s wild liberation. It’s just that the wild liberation is ordered by the brain itself, but the instruction to mutate here is issued by the external environment.”

The wild liberation of the cursed son is to activate those gene fragments to change his body.Some people—such as Liu Lizi, have always kept the activated state and never turned it off.This was a very dangerous behavior in the past. Once the erosion rate of the original enterovirus was too high, it would cause extremely serious mutations. A large number of contradictory gene segments were activated at the same time, and the only result was to become a monster.

This is because the original enterovirus basically evolved by itself in the later stage, and the gene chain has great randomness. After Tartarus adjusted and corrected the gene chain of the cursed son, its gene chain became stable. And safe, wild liberation has become easy to use and safe.

However, the analysis of the genetic structure of the local people so far has shown unpleasant results-the genetic chain here is not random, but deliberately modulated.In other words, it is all man-made. Someone has adjusted their gene chains to this way. The technique is unprecedented, but the purpose is unknown.

"Is the receiver also this ganglion?"

"That's right, it's actually not accurate to say that it's a cover. It's a one-way valve or something, and the psychic signal can only go in and out. And the individual who receives the relevant psychic signal will be activated certain gene fragments..."

"Maybe it was a remote control or something at first, but judging from the current situation, this set of equipment may have failed. I mean... the aspect of the control end." Black Jack scratched his cheek. His ears were straight, and he seemed to be in high spirits. "The signal from the control terminal is not as reliable as the whole system was designed at the beginning - the control terminal itself is already very unreliable."

"..."

Oregana couldn't help swallowing.

Although she said it was 'unreliable', it was like a galaxy bomb... no, to be precise, it was a beast that was played wantonly.As soon as someone pushes a button, they become no longer themselves—in a physical sense.

"We guess that this is the essence of being 'cursed' or 'blessed' in the vertical well of the abyss." A pain boy next to the fox added, "Staying in the vertical well of the abyss for too long, just received a certain signal, so The body reacted by itself and activated a certain gene segment, or activated all gene segments at once. The data of the gunboat machine confirmed this - the thought wave of the dark worm was scattered and chaotic, and it seemed unable to maintain a stable Spirit, and the scope of the thought wave is only limited inside the vertical well. This may indicate that it is in a very weak state now."

"It's possible. After all, judging from all the information we have now, it may have been preyed once." Oregana pondered for a while, and then expressed her guess, "Maybe it didn't eat up, and the remaining one A small part of the thinking system is still stuck at the bottom and continues to act as a demon... But, can the eggs that have destroyed most of their structures still live for so many years, and still make waves?"

No one can answer this question. The vitality of the dark worms has exceeded the comprehension of ordinary people. It feels like they can always scare people in this respect.

In the silence, Oregana spoke:

"We should conduct a comprehensive search on the vertical well." This may be one of the "hard evidence" that she hoped to get before. If she can get it, she has no reason to give up or ignore it. "This galaxy is very likely to be a breeding ground." ——The largest scale, the most exquisite workmanship, and the most promising breeding farm in all records. There may have been an astonishing number of dark worms supporting this galaxy in the past. What happened here and what is happening here, we must know Figure it out."

Perhaps, the answer to the mystery here is right in front of us.

"Understood, we can start as soon as the follow-up reinforcements arrive. It is very easy to persuade the local government to let us enter the abyss to explore, and it is equally easy to persuade the neighboring powers to obtain their consent-people in war-torn areas usually know that It makes sense." Haitu said cryptically, and added at the end, "But we still have to be careful, we don't just have to deal with local aborigines."

"yes……"

And at this moment, Liu Lizi, who had been paying attention to the subspace communication channel, patted Oregana on the shoulder:

"Boss, Nuonuo wrote back. She wants to speak to you directly."

"Okay, put the communication in."

PS1: Ask for collection and recommend microphone 0w0

PS2: continue meow 0w0 tomorrow

Section 910 leave note: update postponed for twelve hours

Because after swimming in the morning, it may be so cold that it starts to have a fever. After taking the medicine, the whole person is groggy, and the liver feels a little immobile (cover face)

It may be a bit difficult to update the new chapter before [-] o'clock in the morning, and the update should be resumed before [-] o'clock in the afternoon qwq

Everyone, I'm really sorry, qwq (Dogeza)

Chapter 911 Chapter 817: I'm really sorry we're late qwq

When Nuonuo's familiar face appeared on the screen, Oregana had no reason to feel at ease.Even knowing that it would take a long time for her to come right away.It's a bit embarrassing to say it, but it's actually more reassuring to see those hands.If I can be touched by those hands on the head, I will be able to sleep happily and peacefully for several days afterwards.

'Boss, you have Yoshikage Kira's expression on your face. '

Maybe it was because of the bad expression on her face, Liu Lizi reminded in a low voice behind her.

"It's okay, we also have cats and cats behind us that can make the enemy explode," this is the unwavering answer, Oregana puffed up her chest, "Are you right?Queen Killer Requiem. '

'What the hell is that...'

'Everything touched by the Queen Killer will turn into a bomb. If the Queen Killer grabs the earth upside down, can the earth also be turned into a bomb?The kind that easily blows up space monsters with faders and travels at sub-light speed? '

"You actually turned the topic back to Nuonuo at the end..."

Oregana let out a laugh from her nose, looking smug, Leopard felt a little pain in his head - it felt like Lin Chong who was beaten by Coach Hong at Chai Jin's mansion, wanting to take a stick Knock the guy in front of you.

It didn't take long for the image on the screen to stabilize, and the sound of stumbling began to flow smoothly:

"Oregana, long time no see." There was a starry sky in the background, and the back armor of a battleship could be vaguely seen.Nuonuo was sitting on this piece of armor, and while eating the small dried fish and vegetable sticks with the space-packed Kufi, he said, "I've heard the general story."

emmmmm... This appearance feels too homely, like JK sitting on the cushion in the living room, eating snacks and chatting with friends.But in fact, it is sitting on a powerful combat vehicle in a vacuum and discussing military issues with allies.

A long time ago, Nuonuo mentioned that she wanted to be an ordinary girl like Nuonuo Lili, and also wanted to be a selfless and great space pilot like Nuonuo Lili.Obviously, she has now found a balance between these two ideals... a balance that is so weird that others don't know how to complain.

"Big Sister," Oregana sat cross-legged on a chair, and used her honorifics properly, "do you have any clues? Is there really a battleship that got lost at some point?"

Nuonuo's expression became a little helpless, because this is also a legacy problem that has always existed.She stuffed the strips of vegetables into her mouth, and patted aside the debris floating in the vacuum:

"There are indeed quite a few." A row of data flashed behind her eyepiece, the hair on her head swayed slightly, and a dazzling jet of light appeared behind her - a whole fleet of battleships was moving in the direction of the hair. Flying away, it should be that she found something there. "Especially in long-distance raids, or when large-scale space maneuver warfare is involved, it is very common for some battleships to lose contact."

Nuonuo seems to be still on a combat mission, although she herself behaves very leisurely.

Oregana had a puzzled expression on her face:

"common?"

In the process of long-distance raids, there will indeed be battleships left behind due to lack of experience or mechanical failures. This phenomenon is especially obvious in the fleet formed by newcomers.For example, the recent Fist of Tartarus rookies took out 88 Caracal-class cruisers, marched through 75 star gates and 110 star bridges, and made a regular jump of [-] hours to assist the Ansador family in destroying a criminal gang To be honest, although it is a necessary and honorable act to kill the villains who brought huge disasters to the marginal colonies and the indigenous people with backward technology, but in terms of the scale of the battle and the strength of the enemy, this belongs to bombing with a ton of bombs. A small sampan.

The purpose of bringing so many warships out is not to create a crushing situation, but to train troops.For newcomers, this is a long-distance maneuver that requires concentration, and the newcomer instructor Shadow Hunter who leads the team has no idea of ​​slowing down or waiting for others-because the first few actual combat trainings not only exercise skills, but also dispel these The meaning of the new grad's inflated self-confidence is inside.The result is:

Nearly 0 caracal badgers were lost on the way, and two light aircraft carriers were used to recover them, which took nearly three weeks.According to past experience, after recruits have gone through three to four long-distance training sessions, the fleet's dropout rate will drop to nearly 0% (excluding low-probability mechanical failures is [-]%).

This is acceptable for people, but it's weird that the Buster Legion lost a ship.Except for the commander, this legion is equipped with pre-recorded AI, which is fully trained. When operating in a group, the data link is extremely tight. If you want to compare it, each individual is like a body different limbs.

Can you still run and lose a rib while running?

But facing Oregana's doubts, Nuonuo nodded:

"Yes." She said, "At our time, long-distance pursuit and interception included creating a large-scale gravitational well and dragging the opponent out of the transition bubble. Because the target is the entire swarm fleet, there is Sometimes even at the supermothership level, the strength and range of the gravitational well far exceed your warp disruption force field generator."

Does this mean the battle before the shelter was built?

The scale of the battle at that time was indeed beyond imagination - the number of swarm fleets desperately drilling into the refuge world group is by no means comparable to what it is now.In order to avoid damage to the galaxy itself, or the refugees have not yet had time to board the ship and leave, in many cases, it is impossible to do the preset battlefield that is often played by the Ministry of Consolidation.

In that case, in order to protect the galaxies behind from being affected by the flames of war, the battles took place in the black field between galaxies.The two fleets maneuvered together, and the jump bubble and the jump bubble projected mass weapons or space interference to each other, and dragging the opponent out of the jump bubble to fight in a normal space was considered a routine battle.

You don't need to think about it at all to know that the danger of this kind of battle is absolutely extremely high.

The super-mothership class has a huge mass and huge energy, what can be used to intercept that kind of thing?Forcibly fight with it?Or use a naturally formed black hole as a trap?Or...Using the shrinking furnace on the battleship and the physics law rewriting mechanism on Nono's hands to forcibly create a fake black hole?

This is a matter of course, without exaggeration. If you want to intercept that kind of thing, you have to come up with the same exaggerated thing to stop it.

"And it's not just that, because the battle will be fought the moment it is pulled out, so our troops must be within the range or edge of the gravitational well at the same time. At this time, the most able to withstand damage is my Buster army and the 'flock', So most of the battles are on the edge of us." Speaking of this, JK, the interstellar decisive battle, couldn't help but spread his hands, with a helpless expression on his face, "Generally at this time, the gravitational field is already strong enough to sag in space, even with The subspace is as thin as a takoyaki board, and fighting in that kind of place is completely desperate."

"...Although it is understandable, why is it a takoyaki plate?"

"I'm learning to do this recently, don't pay too much attention to it."

Haven't you been on the front line all this time?Where did you learn how to make takoyaki with what ingredients?

I really wanted to complain, but I always felt that I would get a pretty amazing answer after asking, so Oregana finally held back and didn't open her mouth.

As if not noticing the tangled expression on Oregana's face, Nuonuo continued:

"In short, fighting in that kind of place, you may be caught in the turbulent flow of space and thrown to another world. Although we can come and go freely in the subspace, we still can't do it [-]% in that turbulent flow. Stable. Whether it is the black goat cubs or my Buster army, there are still a certain number of them that are still wandering outside and become what are called "abandoned mines". Although some of them will be recovered in recent years-for example, I have contacted you before The black goat cub named Saya who passed away is a drifting individual recovered from another world, but that is only a minority."

It's like fish can swim freely in the water, but in places with strong surges, the only result is being rushed. Originally, a battleship with a strong hull can easily pass through the subspace, if it is washed away in a chaotic area of ​​space If you go to a strange place, you probably won't be able to come back for a while.And at this time, the greater the mass, the farther it will be rushed, and it will be as difficult to find or rush back by yourself...

No...Compared to this matter, climbing to the sky is nothing, as long as you see the launcher catching up from behind and open the throttle to full throttle. (nonsense)

Liu Lizi poked her head out from behind Oregana and asked:

"Generally speaking, what will happen to this floating individual?"

"As for the black goat cubs, most of them will enter a dormant state, waiting to be picked up while using low-consumption means to contact and perceive the world they are in, waiting for the day when they are taken back in sleep - they and the local civilization The result of contact is usually not good, leaving no happy memories, so try not to contact, but there are always exceptions." Nuonuo tapped his chin with his right index finger, "and the combat units of the Buster Legion will find their own The dark worms in the local universe fight until they collapse. If this process is long enough, they will gradually evolve during the battle and become the most suitable for fighting in that universe and continue to fight... Generally speaking, they will continue to fight until it sinks."

The exception she mentioned probably refers to Saya... I just don't know which line Saya took here. Oregana thinks it may be the ending of the glass shoe. Due to etiquette issues, she must Be patient with your curiosity and don't ask about her past. (convinced)

Oregana understood the characteristics of the Buster Legion very well.

Any one of them is actually not a pure machine, but a compound form of biology and machine.And the appearance of the factory is not the same as they have been since then - this kind of mechanical creature will actually evolve, and the evolution speed is very fast.In order to fight, they will immediately start to adapt to the environment as long as they are offline, and they can change themselves beyond recognition in a thousand years or even less.

In the past, in the process of guarding the solar system, because the commander was offline, they began to grow blindly with their eyes closed. They looked exactly like the space monsters they were fighting against. As a result, the earth, which had sealed up most of its technology, mistakenly regarded them as space monsters. Monsters, this grotesque 'civil war' did not end until Nuonuo returned.
