Chapter 0573 - Fusion ☢ Strike ☢ Detected on the Way
"Anne ......"
"Didn't you already eat a lot of snacks when you were on the top of Normandy II? Why are you looking for something to eat now? ”
Miranda is a little puzzled, how can this little guy with small arms, legs and belly look better than her?
Kailin on board?? Dr. Jakovos has obviously examined this little guy, in addition to her excellent physical fitness, strong ability reactions and strange magic, this girl seems to be similar to a normal human little girl, and her metabolism has not found any difference, how can she know how to eat and eat all day long?
“!!”
"You mentioned this to me, you just ate more than me! I didn't eat it all, but I still came together to exploit my bag, so I haven't eaten enough yet! ”
(っ`-?? c)??
Eat well, sleep and have fun, this is what Anne wants to do the most, and eating is at the top, she is now thinking about eating, only when she is full can she have the strength to sleep, and when she sleeps enough, she has the energy to play, this simple truth is what Miranda is so spicy, she doesn't even know?
Is...... Stupid!!
"I'll eat an extra one of yours!"
Miranda almost laughed, this stingy guy has been so long ago, and it's almost digested, this little ghost still can't forget it?
"It's two, two!!"
?? (???? v????)??
Finding out that the other party had lied about the numbers, Anne quickly stretched out two fingers and reiterated! It's only been less than half an hour since this incident, and she will never be mistaken!
"My God......"
Miranda covered her forehead and turned her face away, not wanting to leave this nasty imp again!
"I'm sorry, we're in the barracks here, and it seems that there is really no ...... for anything other than the d-amino acid food that is suitable for us Turks to consume themselves."
"Maybe I'm mistaken, they're over there anyway, you can go and see it? However, I don't recommend you humans to eat it casually...... While they won't be fatal, they will at least make you humans uncomfortable for a while. ”
General Corinthus, who was standing intently in the middle of his bunker-like command center, standing in front of the console looking at the military map, was obviously not in the mood to receive the human child, so he just casually pointed to a corner of the bunker command center.
There, there were a bunch of metal boxes and round stuff littered on the ground, all of which were canned military ready-to-eat food! Some of them were already open and empty, and some of them were completely new and untouched, just a little messy in the corner, and no one wanted to tidy them up or anything.
"Huh? Is there really something delicious? ”
?? (???? `??)?
Ana, who was bored and idle anyway, thought that there was really something good, suddenly leaned over, picked up a can and began to examine it carefully.
Syllable!!
However...... It had only been a few seconds before she quickly threw it back in disgust and grinned disgustingly.
"I don't eat your canned worms, I feel super disgusting when I look at it!!"
(ˉ▽ ̄~) cut ~~
If it's something delicious, regardless of whether it's a dextro-amino acid food or a levo-spin, Anne can go and eat it, anyway, the xenoprotein or something, it will definitely not poison her!
But......
What the hell is it like the disgusting sticky bugs printed on the shells of the cans in front of you? Anyway, it's definitely not for people to eat!
No matter how delicious it is, she is not sensitive to the insects eaten by these turbulent crooked stars......
Although little Anne herself has long stood at the top of the food chain of many worlds, from dragons to fish and shrimp, she has eaten them all! But bugs and stuff like that...... The kind of thing that makes you sick to your stomach when you look at it, she will definitely be excluded from her little recipe for the first time, and she will definitely not choose it!
“……”
The Turkish general Corinthhas simply glanced back at the other man, and quickly turned his head again.
He still had a very important military situation to deal with, for, at every moment, countless Turui warriors or people above Palevin were slaughtered by the Reapers; With every second of their time, their lands will be stained with more blood of their turians!
That's why he didn't have time to waste time talking to that little girl!
All he could do now was to pray that Shepard would repair the communication tower on time, and then put them in touch with their new Turkian patriarch so that the so-called reinforcements could arrive and rescue them!
It's just that......
What he didn't know was, where exactly were those reinforcements now? Were they above Menel's orbit, outside the Palaven system, or further away, and didn't jump through the Mass Effect repeater?
He didn't know anything about it......
"Hah! Bub! ”
"If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense! These canned bugs, they are the top military ingredients of the Turks, if you buy them outside, it will cost you almost 10,000 Star Coins to buy a can, which is much more expensive than the ones we usually eat! ”
"And I've heard about ...... They're still delicious, and the average Turk can't eat them even if they want to? ”
Miranda, who didn't go with Shepard to repair the tower, also followed little Anne a little bored, but she was well-informed, and she recognized at a glance that this kind of canned food belonged to the army of the Turks, and only those troops who were fighting the enemy were eligible to eat it, and ordinary people, no matter how rich they were, could not eat it if they wanted to.
Of course, this kind of food, which symbolizes honor in the army, is a little bad in appearance......
Even Miranda couldn't help but feel a little sick to her stomach when she remembered that these turian soldiers had grabbed goomy, maggot-like bugs from the cans and put them in her mouth...... Perhaps, this is where the differences in customs between creatures of different races, cultures, and aesthetics lie?
Just as most of them on the earth like to eat fish, but there are a small number of people on the earth who adhere to the tradition and resolutely do not eat fish, and they still think that the people who eat fish are the kind of people who are very evil, disgusting, and shameless?
"Is it really that delicious? So what are you going to eat now? ”
*(?? *ˊ?? ˋ)?? *??
In the blink of an eye, Anne suddenly picked up a can, made a gesture to open it, and handed it to the big sister Miranda...... As long as the other party eats one in front of her, she recognizes that this is a good thing!
Of course, she herself would never eat with each other.
Lunch or something, it's better to wait until they've finished the reapers, and returned to Normandy II, and then go to the delicious lunch that Uncle Chef Sergeant has prepared for her!
"Hah! Thanks, but I'm not hungry right now! ”
"You better take some back and feed the archangel Garrus, whom you almost killed! In that case, I think he'll be grateful to you. ”
Seeing the harmless look on the little guy's face, Meng Mengda kindly handed herself a can, Miranda quickly took a step back without a trace, and then suggested to the guy who wanted to see her make a fool of her.
She wasn't a Turk, so how could she eat such a thing?
Think of the guy Gaylas on Normandy II right now, the hapless guy who dies and eats the food of other races, and that's a lesson from the past!
"I didn't fix him, obviously he himself had to come to me to ask for snacks, so what does it matter to me?!"
(???? ˇ?? ˇ????)
This pot Annick doesn't carry it, she never thought of going to fix that crooked star called Garas!
At that time, the cheekless guy, when he begged himself for snacks, he ate so happily, who knew that the other party would be so useless, and after a while, he even vomited bile?
That kind of thing, it's disgusting to think about!
"But we all think that you deliberately misled him like that at that time?"
Miranda crossed her arms and stared down at this cunning little guy playfully, she would not be like that Garas, who was fooled by the other party twice.
"I didn't!!"
(???? ˇεˇ????)
This Miranda villain is just talking nonsense, and Anne herself will definitely not admit it anyway!
"You...... Not good! Squat down quickly!! ”
Rumble! Rumble!
Thundered!!!
When Miranda wanted to say something, she found that something was wrong with the electricity, so she subconsciously shouted and squatted on the ground with her head for the first time!
At the same time, almost instantly, outside the bunker-like command center of the Turks, several huge explosions rang out violently, and then ...... Countless fragments exploded with that red firelight, and the blasting shards, sand, and steel debris swept directly along the firing port, leaving several unresponsive Turui soldiers and officers to break through the Mass Effect shield on the spot and fall directly in a pool of blood with a wail.
"Wow......"
〣(?? Δ??) 〣
"Oh no, a lot of monsters have fallen from the sky...... It doesn't seem right to say that, they must have been deliberately dropped by those reaper villains, right?! ”
∑( ̄□ ̄*|||
When she saw the red flames and energy exploding outside, Anne thought it was these unlucky Turks, whose base had been bombed by the Reaper's spaceship!
But who thought, that turned out to be a new landing method for the Reaper monsters, they didn't use landing craft to land, nor did they use that kind of monster flying machine to fly, let alone other modes of teleportation, but directly smashed down from the sky, and by the way, it could be used as a bomb to bomb a round?
(…… )
(Little master, this little one knows!)
That's actually the Reaper's advanced application of the Mass Effect Field, and they can not only cause explosive damage to the enemy when they smash down like that, but also keep the impact within the range that those modified monsters can bear, so that they will not be directly stoned to death?
??????????????
- Because those reapers, they don't have to care about the life and death of the soldiers, and they don't have the advanced teleportation matrix of the star spirits, so they like to use this simple and crude way. And this knowledge, Tiebs has actually seen it with his little master, but it is just ...... Some nasty guy didn't take this boring thing seriously, and it Tiebs himself had just made a note of it. )
"Quick! Hurry up and fight back and destroy them!! ”
Seeing that the reapers, who had accurately found their command center, General Corinthus didn't care about anything else, and hurriedly shouted to the commanders and soldiers who were not injured or lightly injured to quickly take up their weapons and prepare to counterattack!
As for the guards standing guard outside, he didn't have much hope......
Under that kind of serial explosion, many of them in the headquarters had no time to dodge and were seriously injured, not to mention the soldiers outside.
Dada!!
At this time, the sentry guns on the top of the surrounding buildings and the countless large and small mechanical turrets on the ground had begun to violently fire countless red mass effect bullets or blue energy pulses, and began to frantically suppress the reapers, who wanted to raid their turbulent headquarters.
"Quick! Stand up and take up your weapons!! ”
General Corinthus picked up a turbulent Mass Effect rifle and shouted at the soldiers who were still lying on the ground wailing.
Sou! Sou!
The two Touareg soldiers, whose Mass Effect shields had bottomed out, had just grabbed their weapons and opened the iron door and rushed out, but before they could find cover, they were knocked to the ground by the enemy on the spot, and Miranda next to them quickly kicked them and locked them directly from the inside.
As for whether the two unlucky guys outside are dead, she won't care!
“……”
Seeing this situation, General Corinthus couldn't help but sigh in his heart......
From this point of view, the information rumored by the outside world, as well as the claims that the Reaper monster has a high IQ shown in those materials, must be true!
Their headquarters is so hidden that it can be discovered and raided by those reapers?
If, add their disrupted communication towers, then it is not difficult to imagine: those reapers, it is clear that they want to first paralyze the command and communication of their Turks, let their Turkian command fall into chaos, and then raid the large and small command centers, and then divide and encircle and strangle their bases one by one, and finally completely annihilate their entire Turkic race?
The other party's strategy is very vicious, very efficient, but also very practical!
However, even if he knew the enemy's plan, there was nothing he could do now! Because...... The enemy is now outside, and his command is suffering heavy casualties, and if the soldiers from the rest of the base can't come in time, they'll be dead!
Even if the Turui warriors finally destroy this handful of enemies who have raided into the base, by then, the opponent's goal has already been achieved, and then ...... Nothing makes sense!
"Bastard!"
Da Da!!
Miranda got up and shot a few monsters that looked like the Turks and fell in response, then quickly retracted as her Mass Effect shield sounded the alarm.
"I've warned you, why is the reaction so slow?!"
After discovering that in this command headquarters, there were heavy casualties in an instant, and there was only one sudden general left who had just run out brainlessly to die, and Miranda couldn't help but curse sadly!
Just now, she had clearly shouted loudly for everyone to squat down for the first time.
Results......
At that time, except for this turian general, who reacted in time, the other turians were still standing dumbfounded, and were successfully attacked by the explosive fragments from the outside, and the shrapnel that swept in from the horizontal fire port of the pillbox, so that now there is no helper to help stare at the shield and shoot to suppress the enemy!
Now it's okay, only the three of them are still intact, but the monsters outside seem to be determined to take out the headquarters of this Turk, what can she do now?!
"That's it!"
"Who made you grow so tall, look at me, you don't have to squat, but those fragments can't up just now!"
?? (?? ˉ?????? ˉ??????)??
Anne hurriedly brought over an iron box as she followed Miranda's example and reprimanded these foolish crooked star turrets.
She didn't crouch down at all, but her height was not as high as the firing port of this headquarters bunker, so the fragments that swept in after the explosion just now couldn't hit her at all, and it was just some stones and iron slag that burst from the top of her head.
And this is the advantage of a child, the target is small, the body is short, and the enemy's attack can easily hit her!
Of course, the disadvantages of lack of height are not without it, for example, now, Sister Miranda and the Turkian general who is not good at marksmanship can already shoot outside, but she can't see the situation outside, so she can only bring an iron box to put under her feet first, and then barely reveal half of her body from the shooting port of the pillbox.
“……”
Sincere! Sincere! Sincere!
General Corinthus didn't have time to pay attention to the complaints and taunts from the little girl's mouth, nor did he care about the wounded officers and soldiers, he just stood silently on Miranda's other side, using the rifle in his hand to cooperate with the earth woman to suppress the reaper monster that wanted to rush in from the other side of the bunker!
They'll have to hold out until the soldiers find out about the situation and rush in for reinforcements, or the sentry turrets succeed in clearing out the Reaper's raiding forces! Otherwise, once the enemy rushes in, then they will all die.
"Huh? Doesn't seem right! ”
"Are those really Reaper monsters, and why do they look like you crooked stars?"
!!? (??''????)?? 【デ═一Bang!
Finally got to the shooting window, and just as she was about to shoot, Anne noticed that the Reaper soldiers who attacked here seemed to look exactly like the Turui? They may look a little uglier, but it's clear that those villains are the same creatures as the Turks, and there must be nothing wrong with them!
So, after smashing the other party with a single shot, she turned to the Turkian general who was crouching down and waiting for the Mass Effect shield to recover.
“……”
Dada!!
"Those, we call them 'marauders'...... They are the ...... transformed by the Reapers after the death of our warriors."
"Be careful, they have shields that are even more powerful than those of our warriors, and they are armed with our Phaeston assault rifles! And remember, knock off their heads, or they will infect each other's fallen companions or soldiers, and 'resurrect' them directly! Also, they unleash those troublesome ability shields on each other!! ”
After firing a shuttle of bullets, the turian general still couldn't kill the marauder in the distance, so he could only sigh and shrink back and wait for his shield to cool, because those guys were too difficult...... Even if they have a defensive advantage, the situation is not so good!
Therefore, he vaguely felt that if that Shepard didn't call for reinforcements sooner, I'm afraid their base might not last long.
Bang!!
"But, they don't seem to be very good......"
∑(?? △`)?!
The three Reapers, who were in a tactical formation, trying to consume the shield of one of their companions in front of them and wanted to rush in, were easily strung with a single shot from Little Annie and lost three heads, and then fell limply on the cold ground in front of the fortress in unison.
She killed three of them with a single shot, and it seemed that they were also very ordinary, and she didn't think that the reapers, who had been turned from turreans, were any better!
"That's because your weapon is too powerful!"
"Hurry up, Annie, don't be stunned, hurry up and concentrate on packing them up, and the two of us will cover you up!!"
Finding that the 20mm sniper rifle in Little Annie's hand was surprisingly effective against those marauder monsters, Miranda quickly came up with a tactic that worked, working with the general Corinthas, turning the muzzle of the gun and starting to shoot at those guys who were too close to the fortress, suppressing the speed of the opponent's touch, but not requiring that the opponent must be killed.
She believed that Annie, a powerful fellow, would be able to solve them easily!
“……”
Dadada!!
General Corinthus, a Turk, didn't say much, just silently cooperated.
He also didn't expect that this human being was a little bit of a human being, and the other party didn't follow him to mess around, but really had the ability? Looking at the opponent's marksmanship that must hit each hit, it is obvious that he is at least an elite sniper?
Don't...... The training of human beings for warriors has started from children?
"No problem! Don't worry, Sister Miranda, none of them will get in! ”
(??????????) 【デ═一 Great!
Bang!
A marauder who was firing and trying to rush over the chest exploded directly to pieces with the sound of gunfire!
"Look at it, I'm here, make sure none of them can fight!"
(*?? ︶?? *).。 【デ═一 .:*??
With her, the great Führer Anne, here, the two of them will definitely not die! However, those guys who have been accidentally blown up just now, then she can't care about it.
Bang! Bang!
One by one, the Reaper monsters, the kind of monsters that looked exactly like the Turks, fell to the ground one after another......
Soon, with Annie's efficient shooting, the monsters began to be killed one by one on the way to the charge, lying down in a large fan-shaped area outside the bunker!
They're all smashed to pieces or have lost their heads!
The rest of the people, at last, didn't dare to rush towards it without thinking, but under the suppression of the three of them and the sentry machine guns, they retracted into cover one by one, and began to shoot in a stalemate with the headquarters of the Turks.
Obviously, with their advanced wisdom, they can't rush now, and they don't dare to rush...... If this continues, it will only be a matter of time before it is eliminated.
"Whew! Thank you for your help, and now we can finally stabilize the situation! ”
General Corinthus finally breathed a sigh of relief as he replaced his rifle with a thermal magazine.
Outside, there were at least hundreds of Reaper monsters, and after dozens of them were killed by this little human sniper, the rest of them finally didn't dare to emerge! I'm afraid they also know that it is useless to rush any longer, and they can only engage other soldiers who are coming to support them from a distance.
He believed that if he waited a little longer, none of the reaper monsters, those marauders, who dared to come and raid their headquarters, would not even think of running!
However......
Rumble!!!
At this moment, a red ball of fire fell rapidly from the sky, and after it exploded, it directly blew up the distant sentry machine gun position into a mess of debris!
Immediately after, the red light and the flames of the explosion dissipated, and a huge monstrous monster and a group of corpse golems rushed out of it! Especially the huge monster, the opponent rushed directly to the top of a building, and in a single click, he easily smashed the turian soldier who was firing fiercely on the top and the twin large-caliber machine gun tower into a puddle of broken pieces!
“……”
"W-What's that weird thing?!"
Miranda swears she's never seen that kind of monster in Normandy II or the Starlink database! And looking at the other party's size and the amount of madness she showed, she didn't have to think about it to know that the guy in the distance was definitely not easy to mess with!
"It's over......"
General Corinthas's face turned pale as he watched the monsters that were wreaking havoc in the distance, destroying a single turret and automatic sentry machine gun position between charging and bouncing...... That kind of monster, they had seen before, at that time, the other party even rushed into their array and killed and wounded an entire squadron of their Turui, more than a hundred soldiers!
Moreover, the other side is full of crazy and cruel attack methods of ramming, tearing, and smashing, which is a very serious blow to the morale of their troops! If it weren't for the fact that they had a lot of heavy weapons on the periphery at that time, I'm afraid that the defense lines outside the base would have fallen under the impact of those many monsters.
However, now there is no heavy firepower in their base...... So, he's suddenly feeling a little hopeless right now? Or are they going to rush out now while the marauders outside haven't suppressed it too much?
"That's the 'Beast'......"
"They may have been formed by combining the body of a Krogan with the head of a Turk with the ability...... But it doesn't matter, it matters: they have powerful armor and shields, as well as immense strength and furious charging speed...... What is even more terrifying is that ordinary light weapons cannot deal with them......"
"Look ......."
At this time, in the distance, countless machine gun sentries kept aiming their guns at the fierce beast, and at least several bullet chains were firing fiercely at the other side! However, the opponent just kept hammering the sentry turrets into a puddle of tatters with a chain of bullets, until there were no more automatic weapons to shoot at them!
"Not good! It's over! It's coming!! ”
Miranda also tentatively shot a shuttle of bullets at the other party with those high-powered rifles of the Turks, and did not stop until the thermal magazine was red, however, she was shocked to find that even if she hit it accurately, not a single bullet missed, but the other party really seemed to have nothing at all, and slowly turned his head, and stared at her with bloodthirsty and cruel red eyes?
She Miranda accidentally provoked hatred?!
'Howl~Roar!! ’
Sure enough, the beast first roared at Miranda, and after the terrifying sound swept towards this side, it was short and charged towards this side at high speed!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The sound of loud footsteps resounded on the ground and caused a tremor sensation...... It seems that the other party is planning to directly bump into this bunker where they are hiding? And that metal gate, which is a little thin, will definitely not be able to block the other party!
Singularity!!
With a single blow, Miranda summoned almost half of her abilities, cast a dark orb and created a high-intensity Mass Effect field, and threw it directly in the direction of the monster's travel! As soon as an enemy gets close, they will be sucked into the orb and temporarily unable to do anything, and then they can take the opportunity to destroy the opponent when they have no shield!
However......
"Run! It's really going to crash in!! ”
Seeing that the other party was not afraid of the ability she unleashed at all, but charged more violently, Miranda was so frightened that she directly dropped the turbulent rifle in her hand, and turned around to pull up little Anne and escape through the other door of the bunker.
As for whether the turian general Corinthas next to her could run away, she didn't care too much about it now.
But......
Bang!!!
A familiar gunshot rang out, and then ......
There's nothing then!
The sound of Miranda's fearful monster crashing into the door did not sound, but instead there was a 'poof' sound that stretched out, as if it was the strange sound of a heavy object falling to the ground and rubbing the ground somewhere?
And when she turned her head to look outside the bunker in a daze, she found that the great reaper monster called the fierce beast had fallen to the ground, and after a few violent convulsions, it finally remained motionless?
"That guy is so stupid, does it think I can't hit it if it retracts its head?"
(????????????)??
The head of the big turian shrunk into the gap in the armor of the shoulder armor, although the gap was not very large, but Anne still managed to shoot her 20 mm caliber high-power bullet directly and accurately, and then, the other party lost his head, and he would definitely die directly!
She swore that she really didn't cheat just now, she just used the powerful lethality of the ghost rifle in her hand to take out the enemy.
So, it turns out that no matter how powerful a monster is, it must protect its head, and once the head is knocked off, no matter how strong the body is, no matter how thick the armor is, it is useless! As long as you don't have a head, you're going to die!
"This ......"
"Well, I've forgotten what you're capable of as a little guy!"
After being stunned for a while, Miranda came back to her senses, and then she breathed a sigh of relief, and sat directly on a box next to her, and began to calm her heart that had just fluctuated violently.
She was so dizzy just now that she almost forgot what this little guy was capable of!
“???”
This little human girl...... How could she be so powerful? Kill a ferocious beast with one shot, and in the form of a headshot?!
Still, that's fine......
General Corinthus, the turian who didn't know what the other party was, could only squat to the side silently, holding his weapon, just like Miranda, and watched the little girl who was still standing on tiptoe on the box as if playing, shooting the remnants of the reaper monsters outside, those marauders and scattered corpse puppets one by one.
In this situation, there is nothing to do with him, a general who is not very good at fighting.
————————
The Citadel Space Station, every city, neighborhood, passageway, and room is now filled with the sound of the sirens calling for emergency evacuation!
At this time, the city of the Five Great Districts of the Divine Citadel has now completed the closing of the arm, and it has been condensed to form a huge cylinder that is impregnable! That's right, the councils intend to use the tough shell of the Citadel to defend against the onslaught of the Reapers.
In this terrible situation, they really have no other way than to defend passively like this!
"How's it going?"
"Those reapers, how did they come to this star field of our Divine Castle?!"
Congressman Asari panicked and rushed to the Council's office in the Turian Council, followed by the Serari Councillor.
At this time, the human councillors, the Udina and the turian councillors, had been waiting for them here for a long time.
“……”
However, seeing the arrival of the two of them, Udina, the human councilor, did not speak, he first opened his mouth slightly, and finally, just glanced at the turian who was also silent without a word, and shook his head and stood aside silently.
The main force of the Citadel's fleet is now commanded by the Turi, and whether it is the Human Star Federation, the Asari, or the Serra, their fleets have already sailed back to their home planets to defend against the Reapers! Originally, the Star Federation could have sent some fleets to garrison here, but because the route was cut off by the Reapers, the arrival of the Grand Fleet would definitely cause a reaction from the Reapers, so it has been delayed until now.
After all, neither the fleet of the Star Federation nor the fleet of the Hero Federation of the Kpruh Star Region could directly steal like Normandy II, and then unknowingly sneak into the Citadel space station of the Serpent Nebula under the noses of the Reapers.
Although the warships of the Star Hero Federation can carry out the so-called twist and turn by themselves, they will definitely not dare to use long-distance teleportation without positioning and exploring this strange galaxy, and can only rely on those mass effect repeaters to arrive at the star regions one by one and complete the detection work, and after getting accurate data and the trajectory of the stars, they can carry out those ultra-long-distance jumps!
"It's bad, in fact, there's nothing worse than it is now......"
The Turkish Congressman finally shook his head helplessly, he didn't have much to do now.
"They jumped out of the blue, and then before we could react, they cut off communications and broke down our alert fleet, leaving not a single ...... behind."
"And the hundreds of cruisers that we Turks and the Fortress clans have put together, they will certainly not be the match for those twenty Reaper ships...... Just now, our Turui general also said that those twenty Reaper overlord warships are enough to destroy our fleet until we completely occupy this Divine Citadel space station! ”
"So ......"
At this point, the Turkian parliamentarians fell silent......
Now, once again, he learned about the power and horror of the Reaper!
Think about the overlord reaper warship that Saren and Geth got at the beginning, it was just one, and it almost allowed the other party to succeed and occupy the Divine Citadel! At that time, the Citadel's fleet even had two dreadnoughts of the Turui, the Destiny of the Asari, plus a thousand cruisers and frigates, and even reinforcements from the human fleet......
But the result?
They were just facing an overlord, the Citadel fleet was almost wiped out, and even the most powerful 'Destiny Transcendental' almost fell, and if it weren't for the human Shepard who killed Saren in time, smashed the other party's conspiracy and destroyed the overlord by luck, I'm afraid that by now, the Citadel would have been theirs a long time ago!
Since, when the Divine Castle was at the peak of its strength, when facing an overlord, it could fight like that...... And now, in the face of a full twenty identical Reaper Overlord ships, what can they do? Is it just the hundreds of cruisers, frigates, and patrol boats that are left to make up the numbers?
The turian capital ships that were originally stationed here in the Citadel have long been sent back to the Palaven system to guard against the Reapers; And the Destiny Transcendent of the Asari also returned to their Athena Nebula at the same time, to the second planet in their Panisha system; As for the Serraians, don't mention it, they don't have many decent fleets at all!
Finally, there are human ......
Here in the Divine Citadel, although the Star Alliance only has less than ten frigates left, in the solar system, it is said that their fleet now has tens of thousands? However, the distant water can't save the thirsty, and if there is no accident, their fortress will not wait for any help to come, and it will be completely occupied and destroyed by the reapers!
What's more, they can't send any messages right now......
Those reapers, those overlord warships, the moment they jumped to this star field, they interfered with all the communications in the area around the Citadel space station, and used their powerful main guns to accurately destroy all the communication beacons around the Citadel, successfully preventing them from sending any information!
Although, the Reaper's moves are already very old-fashioned, and they are always the first to interfere and block communication wherever they go...... However, it cannot be denied that this trick, which has been known by almost the entire galaxy advanced civilization race, is very effective!
In the face of absolute strength, the opponent's tactics are simple, rough, and tried and tested!
Even if they knew, they could only do nothing in vain......
"We're trapped here by the Reapers, and there's no support ......"
Congressman Turui sighed and silently turned around to look out the window.
On the left, there is the deep space universe beyond the Ring Zone, beautiful and deep, still so fascinating......
On the right, there is a cylindrical pipeline that closes to form a closed state, and countless personal lifeboats, large and small spaceships, cargo ships, etc., are frantically escaping through the gaps in the ring area towards the universe outside the fortress......
He knew that it should be the dignitaries and wealthy merchants who had evacuated before the Reapers arrived, but no one wanted to stop them now.
Because, even the C-SEC department of the Divine Castle is now beginning to fluctuate, and they are busy preparing for the evacuation, and there are not many people who stick to their posts anymore...... And if it weren't for the large number of security robots and those 'nurses' who were still dutifully maintaining order, I'm afraid that the city in the guard area would have been chaotic a long time ago, right?
"So what should our council do now? Is it to organize an evacuation immediately, or ......."
Congressman Asari had just wanted to speak out about a plea for help or a big retreat, but after thinking about it, she also felt that she was a little dizzy, so she stopped.
Because, now that the communication of the Divine Citadel to the outer space has been completely cut off, they will not find anyone to rescue their Divine Fortress! And evacuation, too, is almost an impossible task, and the Reaper will not give them that time!
Now the situation of their fortress is as embarrassing as the Turkian councillor just said! Even, on the verge of being destroyed at any moment?
"Alas! If only I could have found out sooner......"
"Councillor Turui, I think that if our fleet can buy us enough time, the Citadel Space Station should be able to evacuate this Serpent Nebula directly?"
After glancing at Councillor Ashari, one of the Serarians muttered for a moment before taking two steps forward and speaking.
As councillors of the Citadel, all of them obviously know that the Citadel Station can move and jump somewhere else on its own if necessary! After all, the Citadel has a tough shell, and now that it's completely folded together, even a Reaper can't easily break through the Citadel's protections!
But......
That would take the fleet enough time to prepare for them, at least, it should take an hour or two?
After all, this Citadel space station is just too big...... With a population of more than 20 million people alone (13.2 million in the Wei District City + more than 10 million in the Ground-based World), jumping to other star regions is a huge and difficult challenge for the Citadel Space Station, not just an ordinary spaceship, which can be walked casually.
Otherwise, if you are not careful, it will cause a huge disaster!!
"No way!"
"I'm afraid our fleet will be wiped out in less than thirty minutes!"
The Turian Councillor turned and said, staring at the Serarian with blazing eyes.
He had just talked to this human Udina about this option, even if they could really abandon the location of the Serpent Nebula, which is located in the central artery of the galaxy, and jump directly to a safer place, it would take a lot of preparation time!
But now, what they lack is time!
Because, the reapers came so suddenly...... They didn't have any preparation at all! Originally, this option was intended to be implemented only after the fall of the outerer star sectors and Mass Effect repeaters, but who would have thought that those reapers, would use their elite fleets to raid such a bridge of the Divine Citadel?
What's even more terrifying is that they seem to be successful?!
"So what now?!"
"Councillors, the importance of the Citadel is unquestionable! I'm not going to give this place to the Reapers, I have to think of a way! ”
Councillor Asari spoke out loud, and although she seemed a little hysterical, her determination to hold on to the Citadel, even to the point of dying here, was irrefutable!
She will never abandon their homeland, which has been colonized for countless years, like those bureaucrats and wealthy businessmen who are fleeing in panic!
Yes!
The Citadel Space Station is home to the Asari! And they have always regarded themselves as the masters here, the real masters!
Because they have been living and colonizing here for more than 2,000 years...... They still don't fully understand every detail of this place, but there is no doubt that the Citadel nominally belongs to their Asari, and she believes that people of other races think so too!
"That's right! The Citadel is vital to our plan! ”
"If we don't get it, then our plan will be put on hold, and then the Reapers can use the Citadel to control the repeaters and lock us in the sectors until they destroy us once and for all!"
"So, ladies and gentlemen, when necessary, I advise...... Even if you destroy it, you must not give it to those reapers!! ”
Udina said with a somewhat grim expression, and his opening was to destroy this Citadel space station!
In fact, after negotiating the terms with Shepard, their council acquiesced in lending this Citadel space station to the Star Federation when necessary, and lent it to the Hero Federation to activate the 'Optimus Furnace' and deal with the Reapers! Of course, that must be done under the supervision of the Citadel Council!
however
Just as they were patiently waiting for Shepard, who had gone to the Palven system to carry out a rescue mission, the home planet of Turi, to reply to the letter, and then prepared to carry out the plan to counter the enemy, fate played a big joke on them!
The reapers, they don't want to give them a chance...... They directly crossed the countless star sectors and successfully attacked the Divine Citadel, and as soon as they struck, they were a full twenty powerful Overlord-level Reaper warships!
“……”
"Ladies and gentlemen, the Reapers are now invading our asteroid-converted space station, and most of them have landed there and are slaughtering our soldiers......"
"But! Actually, we still have a chance, the last chance! ”
After seeing that everyone began to fall silent, and no one could do anything better, the Turkian Councillor finally turned his head viciously, although he spoke in a slow tone, but his eyes flashed with a bloodthirsty and resolute red light!
Yes, he has already thought of a way to deal with the Reaper!
Although it may be a little cruel, it is a little unfair to the soldiers who are fighting a bloody battle with the Reaper in front of them, but ...... They don't have a choice! Because, that's their only chance! If you miss it, you won't have the slightest chance of defeating your enemies!
At that time, the entire galaxy will be completely destroyed......
"What's the solution?!"
"Come on, Congressman Turui, at this time, please don't sell it again!!"
Together, the Asari and the Serrarui asked the turian with a hideous expression.
Although they can also see that there is something wrong with each other's current mood and state, no one cares about those details now! As long as they can successfully resist or repel those Reaper ships, no matter what the cost, they will agree unconditionally!
"Blew it up! Blow up that space station, along with those Overlord Reaper battleships that landed wherever they landed! ”
"Blow them all up, and leave no !! left"
The Turui Councillor gasped and raised his fist in a hideous expression.
Although I know that there are many earthlings, asari, and serari people in that space station, there are also many more turian warriors and soldiers of other races!
But now they have no other better way!
Even if they didn't do it, in the end, those warriors would definitely be destroyed by the huge monster Reaper overlord warships lying on top of them...... Since the result is the same, it is better to make the final contribution to the Divine Citadel now! That is - let the warriors who are fighting be destroyed along with the Reaper!!
Although it is cruel,
But......
This is war, and the most ruthless thing in this universe is war!!
“……”
Udina didn't speak, because he already knew about the plan before, and he had seen the Turkian Councillor arrange everything with his own eyes, so he just had an ugly expression, but he wasn't too surprised.
“……”
And the face of the Asari councillor is much more ugly, because on that huge, asteroid-transformed space station, there are at least 10,000 of their Asari! Although it occupies only a small part of the hundreds of thousands of fighters, this decision ......
She couldn't bear it, and she didn't know if she should do it...... At this moment, her heart is in turmoil, and she is no longer a qualified politician and diplomat.
Therefore, silence became her last choice.
"This, how does this work? I'm sorry, Congressman Turui, but I don't think we can do anything about it?! ”
"Those reapers, they won't give us the time they will arrange, our space station, it doesn't seem to have a self-detonation program......."
Councillor Serarui thought for a moment, then quickly shook her head, she didn't think it was a viable idea.
"Hahaha!"
"I see, is that why you asked Grant to come here for a meeting?!"
At this moment, under the stunned gazes of the Serari and the Asari, the leader of the Krogan rebels, who never showed up and only met with holograms, the lord of the Third Guard City Autonomous Alliance, and the Crowbrother Root, who threatened to blow up the Citadel and replace it with an entire Third Guard city, arrived in the office of the councillor of the Citadel with several of his own men.
"Hahaha!"
"I knew you guys must be beating up my three precious ideas, am I right?"
Grant walked in unscrupulously and made a big deal to a chair.
"Humph!"
"It's not impossible for me to take action to destroy those overlord reapers clinging to the space station, and they will all be finished with a bang!"
"But ......"
As he spoke, Grant stopped, a sly glint flashing in his eyes.
"I want a seat in the Legislature, and I want it now!!"
“……”
“……”
"Humph! I advise you to hurry! After those overlords leave the space station transformed by the asteroid, if they detonate Big Ivan in the universe, the damage range is very limited, and if the overlords are far away, maybe there will be several ships left? ”
