A Heroic Federation human 'T'-shaped battlecruiser is slowly navigating the deep space universe of the Mass Effect world, flying faster than light to the next Mass Effect repeater in order to accurately jump to the Tudra's Palevin system to join their great Führer Anne.

Until now, so many days have passed, and they still have not obtained a complete star map of the Milky Way, and what kind of huge work is still in the process of intense comparison and improvement...... And the backward star maps provided by Starlink are completely unusable!

Because, those guys of the Star Federation or other races will only use ready-made mass effect repeaters to jump, and there is no perfect space and leaping technology of the humans, zergs or star spirits in the star region, and their technology is actually boosted by the reapers and the previous Proscenities, although it looks very advanced, but it is actually a generational growth, and it is a very unreasonable development model!

Therefore, the humans and star spirits in the star region can only slowly expand the star map by themselves, in addition to slowly jumping outward from the solar system to explore the star map route, they can only learn from the star associations in this world, using those mass effect repeaters to assist jumping, so as to quickly reach the place they want to go.

The ship's livery, which was on the way, differed from the usual human battleships and battlecruisers in the Sector: it was not a metallic black color, but a recognizable fiery red livery, plus a full, hideous-looking flaming giant bear painted on the hull......

That's right, it's Anne's previous ship in the Star Sector, the 'Führer' magic battlecruiser!

However......

"Ugh!"

In this extraordinary battlecruiser, the bridge of this magic battleship that can be called invincible in combat power, but there is a rancid smell of alcohol...... A sloppy bearded man who was sloppy and lying cross-legged on the captain's leather seat, covering his face with the dirty Federal Admiral's hat, wearing a general's uniform without rank, but still holding an empty wine bottle in his hand, burped violently.

Poof!

The sound of a heavy object falling to the ground sounded, and then the old man who was lying in the captain's seat and fell asleep was stirred up.

"Little cubs, hurry up and work hard!"

"Don't think that if Lao Tzu is drunk, you can pretend that Lao Tzu does not exist? Does Lao Tzu seem to be the kind of person who is very patient? Hurry up, speed me up! Keep accelerating! Acceleration relentlessly!! ”

"I'm going to get to that bullshit turian Palaven system quickly, and beat those reapers, so they know that I'm Captain Planck!!"

After a loud sound from the wine bottle hitting the ground, Planck, the captain of the drunken Führer, threw away the general's hat covering his face, ripped open the collar of his military uniform, revealing his chest full of flesh and brown body hair, and shouted at the elite officers of the Federation who were sticking to their posts with an unhappy expression.

He had drunk a bottle of wine and slept soundly, but how could he have thought that these fools had not yet driven his precious spaceship to its destination! Therefore, he subconsciously felt that they must be lazy, so he had to scold them fiercely!

“……”

“……”

However, none of the federal officers and crews who were busy at their posts paid any attention to their captains, and it was clear that they seemed to be used to it and didn't take it too seriously.

"Sir!"

"As a captain, you should lead by example rather than insult the crew after getting drunk like this!!"

Stunned blue must be everywhere will not be less!

No, before Planck could find the bottle that had fallen somewhere, he heard a stern shout reprimanding him for the offense?

"You ......"

He stared up and down at the other party with his drunken hazy eyes for a while, however, he didn't recognize the other party.

"Huh?"

"What a rarity! Why don't I remember that I still have you on my ship...... Chief mate? Who the hell are you, little bastard?! ”

Planck looked at the other party's rank and hat and knew the other party's position, and felt a little strange in his heart...... Since the other party is the first mate, where is the first mate who never dared to talk back to him before?

What a reversal!

His Uncle Planck's ship was mixed with a newcomer, and he didn't even know it?!

"Report to the Captain!"

"My name is Salvatore, and I just graduated from the Fleet Command major of the Federal Military Academy of the Sea Wing! Before coming into this world, be sent to your 'Führer' for an internship! I've reported to you before, but you're drunk! ”

In fact, Salvatore did carry out a complete boarding report process before, but unfortunately, their captain was drunk at the time...... In fact, the other party has been in that state for a long time in the past few days, so it is normal not to know about his existence.

“……”

"Forget it! It doesn't matter who you are, and it doesn't matter which bastard you are arranged to mix qualifications on Lao Tzu's ship! ”

"At that time, boy, you listened to Lao Tzu: never interfere with anything with my Uncle Planck, you understand?"

Planck won't bother to remember the other party's name, he just needs to know that there is such a person, as for the rest, it's none of his business, even if the other party is the second generation of some bastards who have arranged for him to fight here, he doesn't care!

"Yes! Sir! ”

The first mate nodded, and bowed with some grief and indignation.

"Very good......

"Don't worry, Uncle Planck won't let you die easily, study hard! Belch...... By the way, where are we now? ”

Planck looked up at the star map, it was an unfamiliar galaxy, and their Führer seemed to be moving at high speed towards a certain location?

'Report! ’

'We're on our way to the Turi Paleven system! ’

I don't know which officer suddenly said this, which made Planck, who had just woken up from a hangover, scratch his head a little when he heard it...... He was a little distracted, and suddenly he forgot what they were doing in Paleven now.

"Hmm......"

"Well done! Keep up the pace! ”

Since I didn't remember what I was doing in that place called Palevin, I couldn't go wrong with a little encouragement to my subordinates!

"Hah!"

Soon, Planck sat back down on his captain's seat, and then pulled the tiny flask from one of his pockets, and took a big gulp with his eyes closed.

“……”

"Sir, I don't understand...... With your qualifications and merits, you can be promoted to a federal general, but how can you ...... now?"

After the first mate finished speaking, he looked at the other party's face with some words and stopped, not knowing whether to continue talking.

He made a special trip to check the resume of this federal veteran, although some secrets could not be seen with his authority, but as far as he could see, the other party should not be mixed up like this...... Although the other party's position is still the most advanced (or the most magical?) The captain of the 'Führer' magic battleship, but the rank is empty, which is very undeserved......

He felt that with the qualifications of the other party, no matter how bad the mix was, it should not be like now, the military rank should be directly emptied! So, he is a little confused?

"Huh? Hahahaha! ”

Planck suddenly burst out laughing, and his voice was very smug and arrogant.

"No more nonsense! Boy, hurry up, you come to take over the captain's work temporarily, let Lao Tzu go back to sleep first!! ”

With that, Planck drank the liquor from the trimmed metal bottle in one gulp, then staggered to his feet, and left the captain's room directly.

“……”

The first mate didn't understand, why the other party's expression suddenly changed, and the mood was still a little lonely?

'Sir! I advise you to never talk about it again!! ’

At this time, a kind crew member whispered.

"And why? Do you know?! ”

‘……’

You'll know later, anyway, so I'll tell you: Captain Planck drove this spaceship alone not long ago to blow up his enemy's family, the pirates who robbed the passenger liner and killed his family, and the enemy's entire space station......

“？！”

"Exterminating pirates, that's a good thing, why should you be punished?"

The problem is that the entire space station is dead, and not a single one is alive! Even, including quite a few civilians and agents of our Federation...... So, that's it in the end.......

'After that, Captain Planck became more fond of alcoholism......

'Isn't it?' ’

'If this man has no hope, it would be nice to just become our captain!' ’

'But the captain's venting of anger was indeed a bit too ......much.'

'Bullshit! We sacrificed our lives to kill the enemy on the front line, but when we came back, our family was gone, and if it was you, would you not be crazy?! ’

So this matter is just an internal matter, isn't the captain just removed from the rank? Wait, when the reapers of this world are cleaned up, the staff will definitely reinstate him! However, I'm afraid it's unlikely that he will be transferred back to the star sector again......

‘……’

'Under war, there is no soul...... Therefore, if our Kpulu Star Region can be peacefully reunified, that is our greatest luck! ’

That's right! Didn't the bugs slaughter at least billions of people in our Tyranid Empire? ’

'Shhh Shut up! Now if we talk about this kind of thing that destroys unity, it will be punished! ’

‘……’

'Yes, I wish the captain had made it through sooner, right?' ’

'Alas......'

Without waiting for the new first mate to have any opinions, the crew whispered to each other, until they accidentally touched on a sensitive topic, and then they all fell silent.

——————

Bang! Bang!

When the last bullet in the pistol was fired, Ashley, the female warrior of the Star Alliance, was a little stunned...... I could only hold the slightly overheated M-6 pistol in my hand blankly, looking at the disgusting bug that was still shaking its head and lying on the ground.

The other party still has nothing to do......

Just now, she directly hit the Mass Effect pistol in her hand, the barrel of which turned red and sounded the alarm! But who would have thought that even the other party's carapace was not broken? And if it were the kind of Reaper monster with a shield, after so many bullets from her, the shield would have been broken a long time ago, and the body would have been directly smashed into a pile of broken pieces, right?

“！？”

"How could there be such a strange thing, this shouldn't be like this......"

Ashley didn't try to attack any longer, for she had seen it so clearly that there wasn't even a single white mark on the larva's carapace!

Such hardness and toughness are already obvious!

And since she couldn't break it after so many shots, then even if she continued to shoot, it would definitely be in vain...... It's just that what she doesn't understand is that she obviously saw a lot of monsters like jumping and jumping insects with a pair of small wings and snakes that spew spines like snakes, and many of them were killed and injured by the reapers, but now, how can this inconspicuous insect be so weird?

"Haha! You see, it's bounced off, right? ”

"No matter how you shoot, it's useless, it's very powerful!"

o(^▽^)o ??

Even if she had never attacked this kind of small bug alone, Anne could see at a glance how tough the other party's carapace was, and this was the reason why she was so gloating just now and letting this big sister Ashley shoot at the bug!

It's not that this kind of insect can't be killed, it's just that it has been protected by the Zerg, and if you want to hurt them, you need to find a way, such as picking on the weak joints, mouthparts, etc., instead of shooting at the opponent's carapace.

'I warned you, Ms. Ashley......

You don't have to look like that, I'll tell you: I once made a bet with someone, and I used my sword to cut it...... And then I lost a month's salary......

At this time, the Galen hologram in the communication also comforted the Ashley lady of the Star Alliance. Remembering that he had made a bet with the bastards to chop the larvae, his face was still a little dark...... Obviously, he has been cheated once, but now he has a deep memory!

"Look, what are they doing now?"

At this time, Liara, the Asari who had been silently observing the movement of the insects, couldn't help but exclaim.

It turned out that those strange bugs with wing-like wings, the kind of people who can levitate and fly without flapping their wings, are now starting to spread a strange dark red substance on the ground of the planet Menell, and she doesn't know what they are going to do...... The blanket-like thing, as if it had life, began to slowly spread flat on the ground and slowly expand around the earth.

'It's called a fungus blanket!' ’

'A biochemical substance that nourishes and sustains the colony of the Swarm, and on top of it, they heal Zerg units and provide a speed bonus...... Of course, there are some more magical effects! ’

Galen, who had been hostile to the bugs, was certainly familiar with everything about them!

After all, they have long studied all the habits and peculiarities of each other, whether it is the reproduction methods of insects, troops, genetic evolution, hive construction, etc., they have a relatively detailed understanding! Not to mention that now, after the unification of the star sector and the many battles side by side, their understanding of the insect swarm between humans and the star spirits has become even deeper.

He couldn't have imagined that the Zerg buildings were actually just giant organs and organisms!

And the colonies on the entire Zerg planet, no matter how big or small, as long as they are linked together by the fungus blanket, they are just a part of a living creature! Suffice it to say: a whole colony of biters, it's a massive, individual creature!

That's right, it's just one!

A separate swarm base, whether it's a small footprint or one that covers the entire planet, is really just a creature, not a swarm! Huge structures like those of the swarms, whether they are hatcheries, split pools, wormholes, infested abysses, main nests, thunder caves, or other swarm buildings, are actually just a component of the entire swarm base, not an individual entity.

And the more they have organs, the stronger the wisdom and strength of the swarm base, and the higher the production and hatching capacity!

This kind of thing, he Galen only gradually learned about this after the star sector was completely unified...... It is precisely because of the existence of the fungus blanket that the insects can provide this huge population with the nutrients they need, the conditions for evolution, and the basic tissues for hatching and mutating.

As always, whenever the Zerg go to a new place, they will inevitably produce an active biological carpet tissue first, and they call that thing Creep! Mushroom blankets can be produced from hatcheries or from some kind of expanding organ building, and they can eat away at any land that can reproduce very quickly, such as the current Turi planet Menel!

The insects that took over the planet must have started with the fungus blanket! If there is no restraint, in the near future, the base of the insects, those fungus blankets and all kinds of hive buildings will definitely completely cover the planet Menel and 'drive' the Turks out?

Of course, Galen would definitely not tell those Turui people about this kind of thing!

So. In the Kpru, whether it is a human planet or a planet of the astral spirits, they strictly prohibit any bugs from laying a fungus blanket on their inhabited planet! Because if you are not careful, it will cause extremely serious consequences!

One is that the fungus blankets themselves are very long-lived, and they grow, expand, divide and expand all the time, and only shrink from the encroached land when the hatchery or colony is destroyed, but they are not completely dead, and someone needs to do a special removal work!

For example, using a fire tank to burn little by little or something? However, it was a protracted and costly process, and no one on that planet would choose to do that!

Therefore, if something like the Legion spreads out on a certain planet and builds a colony of bugs, it will really be a huge disaster for that planet......

"What magic works?!"

Asari's little Lolita Liara, well, if you don't look at her age of more than a hundred years, but just look at her size, it should be a big Lori? Anyway, now she is particularly interested in academic questions, especially the alien insects she has seen for the first time, and she says that she is very curious about everything about them, and she really wants to study them!

So, after watching the strange insects in the distance gradually spread a thick layer of strange things on a large area of land, she couldn't wait to ask General Galen, who seemed to know a lot of things.

'Actually, there is no ......'

You see, they are starting now...... The base of the swarm is now finally starting to spread out......

As soon as Galen's words fell, all of them could clearly see that in the distance, on the huge blanket of fungi, one by one the flattened levitating worms began to slowly turn into a fleshy chrysalis lying on the blanket, wriggling and rapidly expanding like hearts.

Soon, they turned from a ball of meat about one person tall to a huge ball of meat several people high? And they're still wriggling and expanding?

"What an amazing thing...... That's how the swarms' base came about?! ”

Liara was amazed, she had always thought that the bugs were just digging holes in the ground to build their nests, just like the various bugs on most of the living planets in the galaxy now! And, of course, there are the Ryk-resistant bugs that were once exterminated by the Citadel, and that's how they burrow into the planet to build their nests.

But who would have thought, now these alien insects would be such a novel way of nesting?

"It's disgusting!"

"It looks like a wriggling lump of rotten flesh......"

Miranda squinted and looked away with some disgust.

She didn't like that kind of thing, a large mass of weird wriggling meat, which looked a little too unacceptable to accept, and made her feel like goosebumps were standing up in an instant.

“……”

(ー`?? ー)

"I'd never want to eat the flesh of those bugs, even if they're big and look like animals?"

(/▽＼)

After staring at the other party's appearance when building the base for a while, Anne immediately extinguished the idea of continuing to catch a certain big guy here and continue to play for a while! She also feels now that if she stays under her cover, her appetite will be seriously affected!

“……”

"Your Excellency Führer Anne, and ...... I'll go preside over our swarm first, goodbye. ”

Hearing that the other party actually spoke ill of their swarm in front of it, the Zagala Bug apologized a little unpleasantly, and directly moved its slightly large body, clinging to the cliff, and led her larvae to climb towards the hatchery that was under construction and expanding in the distance.

Now that the swarm is starting to establish itself on this planet, it may be time for the genetic experts of the swarm to have that guy from Abbather come over and preside over the evolution...... Only then will it be able to maximize the combat power of their swarms!

And now these creatures here, whether they are humans, Asari or Turkish, except for the little head of Annie, who can't be provoked, he dare not slack off, the rest of the people are not taken seriously by the queen of worms.

If they had changed places, they might have been eaten as food by its swarms!

'Alright, everybody! ’

"Now that you've got your matter settled perfectly, I should end the call too, I've had a lot of things going on lately......

After seeing that the dust had settled on the planet Menel of the Turks, and that the swarm had begun to reap, the Reapers would definitely no longer pose a threat to the Turks, Galen, who was busy dealing with other things, directly opened his mouth and planned to leave:

'Wait! Seems like there's one more thing? ’

'Führer Anne, the Astral Spirits seem to have caught two strange creatures, they were brought from the Kprue Zone, and if you have time next time, you can go back to the solar system? They should still be in prison on the Spear of Arden? ’

Galen, who was about to leave, suddenly remembered the powerful red monster they had seen on the Spear of Arden and another strange fish-man...... So, by the way, he said a word in front of their Führer.

"Oh......"

(????.????)

In response, Anne directly picked up the communicator and turned it off!

She didn't want to care about what kind of strange thing the Star Spirits had caught! Now, she remembered that the cook on Normandy No. 2 must have almost finished her lunch, so she had to hurry back and fill her stomach before she stayed here.

'......'

'Commander? Normandy 2 received a strange communication, and I thought, if you guys have got things done on the planet, you'd better get back quickly? ’

At this time, Shepard's multipurpose also rang out, and the voice of the Normandy No. 2 helmsman clown could be heard inside. Normandy II, which is now in Menel's orbit, must have seen everything that was happening on the ground, so it was at this time that the clown reminded everyone who seemed to want to continue watching the swarm build the base.

"Understood! We will be back soon! ”

Not to mention that Shepard almost forgot that they seemed to have to rescue Liara and their Athari Athena Nebula!

However......

“！！”

"Anne, where did she go again? I was still here just now! ”

As soon as they turned their heads, Shepard found that a certain little guy who was still behind them just now was missing again? Therefore, she was in a hurry to go back, so she could only turn her head and search around.

"What do you mean by looking at me like that?"

Shepard commanded...... I really didn't take her to mess around this time, I'm still here, and I don't know where she ran away!! ”

Miranda glared back at Shepard unceremoniously, she herself was still here, how could this kind of thing rely on her?

‘……’

'Commander! Her Excellency Führer Anne was now in the dining room at Normandy No. 2, and she suddenly appeared here.......

At this time, the artificial intelligence of Normandy 2, the EDI voice, appeared in Shepard's multipurpose tool in time.
