Chapter 1029: A Quest from the Council

The door opened silently.

A middle-aged man walked into the room, reached out and pressed his brow, and sat down behind his desk. I saw that the middle-aged man thought for a moment, then stretched out his hand and opened the contact.

"Pick me up SSV Normandy, Commander Shepard."

"Please wait a minute........."

The mechanical electronic sound quickly faded away, and after a few moments, a young white woman with blonde hair appeared on the screen in front of the man.

"Hello, sir."

While speaking, the white woman gave a military salute to the man in front of her, and seeing this scene, the man couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"Alright, Commander, you don't have to salute me, I'm no longer your commander, I'm a councilor........."

"Okay, then Congressman Anderson."

Hearing Anderson's words, Shepard also quickly changed his words, and the two looked at each other and smiled, and then their expressions quickly became serious.

"Commander Shepard, what's going on with the Normandy?"

"It's all right, Anderson, but our main mission right now isn't to track down and destroy the remnants of the geth, you know, the Reapers' are our worst enemies!"

"Uh-huh........."

Hearing Shepard's words, Anderson also had a gloomy face, and he naturally wouldn't forget this name.

Anderson remembers very well that not long ago, the human planet of Eden was attacked by the geth and a large number of humans were captured, and it was Shepard who was in charge of investigating the matter, and in the end, she discovered that it was led by the rebellious ghost agent Salen, a conspiracy to summon a terrible species called the "Reaper" back to destroy the entire galaxy.

The situation was very critical at one point, and even at the last moment, the geth army led by the Reaper "Overlord" on which Saren rode occupied almost the entire Citadel, and at this critical moment, it was Shepard and her Normandy who stepped forward to destroy the Overlord and put an end to the Reaper's conspiracy with Salen.

Despite the victory, the members of the Citadel Council were wiped out, and Shepard recommended Lieutenant General Anderson, who had been his superior, to join the Citadel Council as a representative of the human race.

Shepard had intended to continue her investigation of the Gatherers and Reapers, but the Citadel Council insisted that the so-called Overlord was nothing more than some strange and huge mechanical weapon created by the geths, and that Shepard's vision of the future was nothing more than a hallucination of her own making. Therefore, the Council of the Citadel has now issued an order for Shepard and the Normandy to continue tracking and cleaning up the remnants of the geth.

Shepard was naturally very dissatisfied with this, but Anderson had nothing to do, although he was one of the councilors of the Divine Castle, he was only "one", and it was impossible to overturn the decision of the Divine Citadel Council.

But this time, Anderson contacted Shepard, not for this purpose.

"Shepard, I have a very important task for you to complete this time."

"What task?"

Shepard on the other side of the screen also immediately became serious, while Anderson frowned, and then said helplessly.

"Maybe you don't know, in fact, just a few days ago, a border fleet of the Turui Empire was attacked by an unknown person at the edge of the wandering galaxy, and the Turui fleet was completely wiped out........."

"Is it a reaper?"

Hearing this, Shepard suddenly became excited, and Anderson hurriedly raised his hand.

"Wait, calm down, although I also hope to be a reaper, but in fact......... According to the news from the turian side, it was our human ......... who attacked the turian fleet."

β€œοΌŸοΌŸοΌŸβ€

Hearing this, Shepard looked confused and looked at Anderson with a look of "what the hell are you talking about", and Anderson was also speechless. In fact, when he got the news from the Turkish parliamentarians, he was also helpless!

"Is this a sign that Turui intends to attack humanity again?"

Shepard immediately had her own thoughts, and it was no wonder that she thought so, in fact, after humans stepped into the universe, the first war with aliens was fought against Turui.

At the time, the human exploration team was trying to activate a dormant mass repeater, which was discovered by the patrolling Turui fleet, and since this was forbidden by the Citadel Council, the Turui fleet launched an attack on the human exploration fleet, and after that, it also captured one of the human colonized planetsβ€”β€”β€” Shanxi.

At that time, the two sides fought for several months, and the humans finally succeeded in retaking Shanxi from the hands of the Turui, who was unwilling to give up and prepared for an all-out war with the humans.

Because of this, the war between the two sides attracted the attention of the Citadel Council, and finally made peace with the mediation of the Alyssa clan, and the humans joined the Citadel and became a member of the Cosmic Alliance family.

Although the current relationship between the two sides is gradually improving, and even the Normandy is a joint construction of human and turbid warships with their own cutting-edge technology, Shepard obviously cannot forget the original war.

"Although I also think this is on the side of Turui, but......... They submitted evidence. ”

As he spoke, Anderson sent a video file over, and soon, scenes of images appeared in front of Shepard.

Turbulent fleets, unnamed terrifying monsters, peculiar fleets, and......... No matter how you look at it, it looks like a human young man.

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€¦ Report to the Citadel Council immediately............"

Eventually, amid the screams, the video playback ended, and Shepard stared carefully at the snowflakes on the screen, silent for a long time.

"What does Starlink think? Isn't this really our fleet? ”

"Judging from the signals and fluctuations intercepted by the turbulent fleet, the other side is completely different from ours."

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€¦ Could it be Cerberus? ”

The Cerberus mentioned by Shepard is a notorious human supremacist who claims to protect humanity and regards its interests above all other races. But the biggest problem with Cerberus is that they often kidnap aliens and conduct inhumane experiments, and they have a very poor attitude towards other aliens......... Or rather, hostile.

"We've considered that as well, but for now......... It's hard to say. ”

Anderson shook his head as well.

"You've heard that they completely deny having anything to do with us humans, and if it were Cerberus, they wouldn't have said that."

"That's ......... too"

Hearing Anderson's words, Shepard also nodded approvingly, Cerberus is a die-hard human supremacist, and at the same time proud to be human. In the previous video, the other party did show an indifferent look about it.

"But no matter what, we have to look into it."

Anderson stood up and stared at the screen.

"The Turian Lord has already issued a protest and warning to our Star Alliance through diplomatic channels, a bad one, maybe our human race and the Turki all-out war will really break out, so Commander Shepard, I want you to lead the Normandy and immediately go to the wandering galaxy to investigate everything about this matter! I want to know where this mysterious fleet in the video comes from and who it is! ”

"Yes!"

Hearing Anderson's order, Shepard put his feet together, raised his hand and gave a quick salute.

"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"
