The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

2025. The second telepath

Even Tang Xiao was surprised now, "Locked himself in the escape cabin? How did he do it?"

Admiral Chiara nodded solemnly, "Yes. This is an incredible result."

Let’s briefly review what happened on the Destiny Weaver... First, Darth Malthael entered the battleship from the hangar platform, and then the Marines inside the battleship began to come over to encircle and suppress him, but he was killed and passed through. , first destroyed the hyperspace engine, and then entered the bridge.

Then during the telepathy with Gixtus, Gixtus still showed a bit of gentlemanly demeanor at the time. He asked everyone to cease fire and welcomed Darth Malthael to the bridge. At this stage, Gixtus should have used the power of mind control, which means that everyone on the battleship should have lost their self-awareness and become puppets of the Grisk people.

Later, during the battle between Darth Malthael and Gixtus, the Grisk found that his defeat was certain, so he once again used his mind control to order all members of the battleship to gather towards the bridge and prepare The siege of Darth Malthael.

But then Darth Malthael turned all the life on the entire battleship into undead, and then issued the order to siege the bridge again. And this time, the process of besieging those Grisk people took at least 5 minutes!

There were two orders to go to the bridge, and the duration was not short. Under such circumstances, it was impossible for anyone to still stay in the escape cabin located in the middle of the battleship.

And since he has become an undead creature, he cannot resist Darth Malthael's death force.

So in this way, the situation is clear - this person is not controlled by the Grisk people! When Gixtus used mind control to order everyone on the battleship to move towards the bridge, he did not obey the order, but locked himself into the escape cabin!

Therefore, after he became an undead spirit and lost his wisdom and consciousness, he continued to be locked there because he could not open the door of the escape cabin. Then, the escape capsule located in the middle section will survive the devastating explosions of the bridge in the front section and the engine in the rear section in the self-destruct position!

"Bring him here immediately!" Tang Xiao said.

Admiral Chiara clicked on the communicator, and soon four B-2 super combat robots came in from outside the door. They led in a tall humanoid species with iron chains.

This species is about 1.9 meters tall, has a slender body, and its skin is as rough as tree bark. It is composed of red and white stripes, and the stripes are very irregular. It seems to form a mysterious pattern on the body, and even makes people intoxicated at a glance. and confusion. He has no lips, there is just a gap in the mouth, and his pure black eyes have no pupils or whites.

"Do you know this race?" Tang Xiao asked Qiara.

"I don't know." Chiara shook her head.

"So, what's different about him that allows him to escape the control of the Grisk people." Tang Xiao stood up and came to this person.

The man who had turned into an undead spirit was shaking, and his throat kept making an unpleasant sound like two pieces of rusty metal rubbing against each other. His body exuded a putrid smell, which could not be stopped even if it was embalmed.

Only a faint shadow was seen separated from this man's body, and then his body suddenly went limp, and it was held by those iron chains that he did not fall to the ground.

The phantom flew into Tang Xiao's hands, feeling a little confused and a little scared. It kept circling around, but still couldn't get out of control.

Then, Tang Xiao took a deep breath, and the shadow was directly absorbed into Tang Xiao's body.

Tang Xiao closed his eyes and carefully recalled the memories in this man's soul. However, he had been dead for five days, his body had even begun to decay, and the information remaining in his soul was very messy and fragmented.

It took Tang Xiao a full half hour to put the pieces he saw together. He opened his eyes suddenly and said: "This race is called the Agbui. They are also a telepathic race!"

"What? A mind-controlled race? The second one!!" Admiral Chiara was shocked. "Isn't one Griske enough? Here comes the second one?!"

"It's telepathy, not mind control." Tang Xiao corrected.

At this time, the understanding of the protoss is deeper. Rasdian said: "The only explanation for such a situation is symbiosis. There must be commonalities and complementarities between the telepathic abilities of the Grisk and Agbu people. Can you know their abilities?"

Tang Xiao nodded, "This aspect is relatively clear. After all, it is their instinct."

He walked over and grabbed one of the Agbu man's hands, only to see that his fingers were very slender, and there was a light blue light emitting at the end of the fingers.

"The Agbu people can sense each other's soul through touch. And this ability should be communicable... In other words, if he touches one of the people, then the relatives and friends that the person is familiar with will be sensed. . And the longer they touch, the deeper they can sense the subject's mind."

Admiral Chiara frowned, "What's the use of this ability? It sounds like it's far from the Grisk people's mind control."

High-ranking Templar Rosales shook his head and said: "No, this ability is indeed useless on its own. But for the Grisk people, it is of great use."

Rasdian also added: "The prerequisite for mind control is to be in tune with the person being controlled. If you know nothing about the other person, it is impossible to control this person. And Agbu People, however, can help the Grisk people do this.”

Tang Xiao pondered for a while and said: "Your statement explains some of the incomplete fragments I saw. Indeed, I saw that this Agbu man had come into contact with many Nirkaton people, and then went back to meet Gixtus reported... So it is the Agbu people who open the minds of the controlled ones, and then hand them over to the Grisk people for final control."

Rasdian and Rosales both nodded in agreement, "Indeed, this is the only possibility."

Keith Maxwell, who was listening to this topic as if he were listening to a book from heaven, finally heard something he could understand. His eyes lit up and he said, "I understand! The Grysk people are obsessed with their own mother." The stars and even their own country are very well hidden, but the Agbu people are not like that! We can further find the Grisk people’s home planet by finding the Agbu people’s home planet!”

Tang Xiao smiled coldly and said: "Their home planet is called the Agbu planet. The specific coordinates are unclear, but it is certain that it is located on the Chasdemonus Route!" (End of Chapter)
