Shepard and her Normandy No. 2 have managed to recruit their old friend Guerras?? Vakarian, Mordin, Serrarean?? Dr. Soles and Zayd, one of the founders of the Qingyang Mercenary Regiment?? Soon after, Masani left the Omega station to continue her tedious recruiting work.

As for the captives of the mercenary group who surrendered, Shepard released them all after some lawless little creature looted the star coins of that Jarosh.

After all, she didn't have to have too many grudges against the outlaws, and almost everyone on the Omega space station knew about her Shepard's glorious deeds, and also knew that she had 'unconditionally' released the mercenaries who did all the evil things after collecting the arms...... Presumably, those people will not come to trouble them again in a short time.

Anyway, she was able to benefit from the efforts of one of the little guys and the light of the other party, so that when they recruited Mordin, they did not suffer any attacks in the ghetto, and it can be said that they solved the plague problem and left the Omega space station without any problems.

After this battle, Shepard and Miranda once again looked at little Annie's talent more and more differently, and no one knew how the little guy had disarmed and surrendered at least two hundred mercenaries with a sniper rifle...... In short, whether it is Shepard or the 'Archangel' Guerras, who is good at sniping, it seems that if they were replaced, they would definitely not be able to force those evildoers to collapse with one person and one shot like that little girl, and finally honestly abandon their weapons and surrender!

But no matter what, apart from sighing about what has happened, they don't dwell too much on it, because they have more important things.

So, now Shepard is very conflicted, she doesn't know whether she should find a relatively safe Starlink colony to let go of that little girl and let her live in a relatively safe environment, or continue to take the other party to herself, or to contribute to the entire galaxy?

With the other party's strange 'natural marksmanship', it must be able to provide great help in her next actions, right?

It's just that she hesitated and felt a little ashamed at the same time...... I always felt that it was a little too cruel to take advantage of an eight-year-old girl...... At that age, one should be able to study and play happily on a home planet, rather than following them around the galaxy as they are now, and ready to fight powerful and ruthless enemies at any time, which should not be what people of the other person's age should bear.

But......

After thinking about it, Shepard finally sighed and shook his head, and went directly to a secret remote conference room in Normandy 2.

Now, she needs to meet her titular 'employer' - the Phantom Man of Cerberus!

Because, it is said that something big has happened on the human colony side of the Boundary God Galaxy, and her mission is coming soon! She breathed a sigh of relief, and while she was ready to confront those collectors, she could finally put aside for the time being how to deal with Annie's little guy and the troubles of arrangement.

Now they are very busy, and they don't have time to find a relatively safe place to settle each other, so they have to continue to keep each other on Normandy 2, and they can help them if necessary...... It's a helpless move, and it's not like she's trying to abuse little girls or hire child labor or anything, is it?

Once she had figured it out, she happily stood in the middle of the small cabin.

"Start scanning!"

Walking into the small conference room, which only he could enter, Shepard walked to the middle of the empty room and stood still, then let the holographic device start scanning itself.

'Command confirmed, scan starting......'

'Identification complete, Commander Shepard, a remote holographic projection conference is being set up......

Following Shepard's order, Normandy II's artificial intelligence EDI began to activate the remote holographic encrypted channel of this secret communication room, and began to connect to the leader of Cerberus, who was hiding in an unknown corner of the galaxy - the Phantom Man!

The level of security clearance in this cabin is very high, and only Shepard himself can contact the Phantom Man of Cerberus after passing the full body security scan, and after EDI authentication and passing, otherwise, anyone else who comes here will only find that this is just an ordinary encrypted remote conference room, and will not get more information and other valuable content.

'Real-time connection complete......'

'The remote holographic call scenario has been successfully established, and the current level of secrecy: the highest! ’

Soon, when Shepard's identity verification was passed, the small remote conference room suddenly went black, and a holographic 3D scene began to be projected around it, making Shepard feel as if he was standing in the room of the Phantom Man, the leader of the terrorist organization Cerberus, who was sitting in front of a chair...... In the background behind the other party, there is still the strange red giant star that I don't know where it is in the Milky Way, constantly emitting a strange red or blue light.

"Whew!"

"Shepard! I'm sorry to inform you now: pause your recruitment for now, now there's business to do! ”

After taking a puff of the cigarette in his hand and exhaling a mouthful of turbid air, the phantom looked at Shepard calmly and said softly:

"Collectors, I think we've got them on the trail again!"

"Right in the Boundary, a colony belonging to our Cerberus, that 'Horizon' colony planet suddenly lost contact, and just now! This clumsy method is exactly the same as the previous method of raiding our human colonies by the Collectors - it is still the same as cutting off communications, then raiding the colonies, and then capturing all the people who have been paralyzed by the swarm......."

"I'm convinced that if they're not being attacked by the Collectors, they're about to be attacked!"

"So, you'd better move fast, if you still want to catch the tails of the collectors and find out what they're doing...... By the way, the Serarius Mordine you recruited the other day, has he found a way to deal with that kind of probing bee colony sting control? ”

Without waiting for Shepard to take the initiative to ask, the Phantom Man of Cerberus simply explained the real reason for meeting Shepard this time, and directly issued an urgent mission to rescue the 'Horizon' colony of the God System in the world!

Luckily, according to his data, Shepard and her Normandy 2 had just left the Omega space station a few days ago, and now they should be able to turn around and go to Horizon to support! Provided, of course, that Mordin, the Dr. of the Serlarians, has found a good way to deal with the swarms, otherwise...... Shepard: I'm afraid they're just running away to provide the collectors with more advanced human specimen materials.

"Horizon Colony......"

"Dr. Mordin's progress is fast, but I guess he's not done it yet, after all, it's still a little too rushed, it's only a few days...... But I'm sure he'll find a good way. ”

"Even if he hadn't, I'd have left for the Horizon colony right away."

Although Shepard still has a bit of a grudge against the leader of this terrorist organization, she will not refuse to rescue the human colony and investigate the collectors no matter what! What's more, now that these two things have come together, she must be going to make a trip to that 'horizon' colony.

As for the problem of swarms, it's a big deal for them to go down with fighter planes or heavy equipment!

"Let's hope he's faster...... Collectors don't usually stay in the same place for too long, and you probably don't have a lot of time......"

"By the way, there's something I need to remind you of right now!"

"That old teammate of yours, Kayden?? Aranco, he's also stationed in the Horizon colony, and if you want to save him, I'd advise you to hurry up! ”

As if he was afraid that Shepard would prevaricate and delay, the Phantom Man thought about it and told Shepard the news truthfully!

Because he knows that this woman is very important to all the members of her previous team, and because of this, she is very loved and supported by her former team members! Otherwise, she wouldn't have been attacked by the enemy and successfully killed in order to save that little helmsman 'Joker'.

"Huh! It's hilarious! ”

"Leader of Cerberus, Honorable Phantom Man! Excuse me...... How many of my former members have been taken under your Cerberus? Do you need such a deliberate plan to guard against me? ”

Shepard was stunned to hear that another of his former team members had been sent by Cerberus to garrison the Horizon colony, and then began to stare with some resentment at the hateful guy in front of him who happened to be sitting in his office chair all his time, staring at him expressionlessly!

She feels that all the things and people or things she cares about seem to be controlled by the other party, and then used to manipulate and threaten herself? She had clearly promised to investigate the conspiracies of the Collectors, Reapers, Realm God Galaxy, and Destroyers for the other party, and she would definitely not go back on what she had promised! But why, the other party still doesn't believe it, and is deliberately wary of her?

Even if she, Shepard, really wants to draw a line with Cerberus in the end, she will definitely return to the Citadel as her 'Citadel Ghost' after solving the matter of the collector, completing all the tasks of the other party, and repaying the life-saving kindness, or return to the Star Alliance to continue to be her lieutenant colonel.

Of course, the chances of returning to the Divine Castle will be a little greater, after all, she has been reinstated now, but that will definitely be after the Reaper's troubles are solved!

"Nope! Shepard, I think you may have misunderstood something? ”

The Phantasmal Man was not agitated by any other emotion, still smoking his cigarette, and then explained unhurriedly:

"First of all, I want to state one thing: Although the planet and colony of 'Horizon' are the property of our Cerberus, it is indeed the navy of the Star Federation that is stationed around our colony!"

"That Kayden?? Aranco is now the commander of the Star Alliance Navy, and he was actually assigned by the Star Alliance Council to garrison and build fortifications on the Horizon! ”

"That guy who is not very good, the reason why he appeared there has nothing to do with our Cerberus's arrangement!"

"You're afraid you don't know yet, do you? Aside from the slight disagreement over the treatment of aliens and the position of humans in the galaxy, the relationship between us is not as bad as you think! ”

Yes, within the inherent realm of the Star Federation or within the scope of law enforcement of the Citadel, they Cerberus are terrorists wanted by both sides, and they are the existence to be suppressed and eliminated! This is a matter of political stance, even Starlink doesn't dare to mess around!

However, in the Boundary-God Galaxy, where the law enforcement forces of the Divine Citadel will never reach, they Cerberus are not as hostile to the Star Federation as they are in other places, and both sides acquiesce to each other's existence, and work together for human colonization in the new galaxy, at most, they don't interact much.

The demands of both Cerberus and the Star Federation to colonize the Realm God Galaxy and protect the human colonization are actually highly consistent with what the Star Federation is doing!

Therefore, when the Star Federation and the colonies of Cerberus were attacked by those so-called 'Collectors' together a while ago, the Star Federation waved its hand and directly sent reinforcements to all the colonists in the Boundary God System.

"Well, I'm sorry, I really seem to have misunderstood you!"

Spreading his hands, Shepard generously apologized for his wrong words and deeds. Still, to be honest, she was quite puzzled by the fact that the Star Alliance's troops had gone to help defend Cerberus' colony.

"It doesn't matter, it's not a matter of a day or two that our Cerberus is misunderstood by outsiders......"

"The relationship between Starlink and us is not as simple as you think, in many cases, we have some secret cooperative relationship."

The Phantom People have always felt that the only difference between them and the Star Federation is that at most one is an official organization to maintain the status and security of humanity, while the other is ...... It's just a private organization that is fighting for the future of humanity, nothing more!

To a certain extent, they are radical, which just complements the tall and glamorous Star Alliance.

This is also the fundamental reason why although the Star Federation has always declared them Cerberus a terrorist, just like the Divine Castle, as long as they Cerberus do not take the initiative to leave a handle for others, or do something too excessive, they can do business and make money openly without worrying about being suppressed too much by the Star Alliance.

"Alright, Your Excellency the Phantom Man!"

"You don't have to instill in me these common sense that only you politicians care about, no matter what kind of organization you are, I don't want to have too much to do with you!"

"Now, please send us the coordinates of the 'Horizon' colony planet, I will give the order to turn to that place now, I am sure that I will be able to catch those collectors this time!"

Hearing that the other party had actually involved some unsavory entanglement between Starlink and Cerberus, Shepard quickly reached out and interrupted the other party's words.

She is a fighter, a front-line commander, and not politicians who specialize in not doing business! Although she understands some things, she doesn't care about them, and she doesn't want to care!

It's like the old Elder Anderson, who was a councillor in the Citadel, said: 'He himself is a Star Alliance admiral, but he is a politician...... Having to waste your life in that never-ending political ball? So, the kind of dirty things that the other party just said are probably only discussed by guys like Udine, right?

And soldiers of their profession should seriously do their best to complete every combat mission and try to do their best, and as for other things, let those guys who are better at it do it!

"Of course! The encrypted coordinates are now teleported to you! ”

"I almost forgot, there seems to be one more thing here, Shepard......"

"I was already briefed on that little girl a few days ago...... Well, have you considered handing her over to us Cerberus? Please believe me, we Cerberus have the best resources and the best educational environment, and with our careful training, she will definitely become a superhero far beyond all of you in a few years! ”

"We human beings are in urgent need of qualified and talented seedlings like her!"

He had already heard about a little girl who had beaten nearly 300 heavily armed elite mercenaries with a single sniper rifle and surrendered! He even carefully read all the data and investigation reports about the little girl that Miranda presented to him!

Although, there are some things that he still feels a little incredible...... However, this event must not be faked!

Whether it's the personal investigation of those intelligence agents at Omega, or the report forwarded by Miranda, they will not deceive him! And if it weren't for the fact that this was a critical period, and he didn't want to provoke that still useful Shepard, I am afraid that the little girl, no matter what means he used, would have coaxed Cerberus into his hands.

He felt that such a talented and good material, when the Reaper's affairs were completely ended, he would definitely find a way to get that little girl into his organization!

"Don't you think about it!"

"Do you think I'm going to hand over Anne to you Cerberus and train her to be a killing machine? Just dream about it! Even if I send her to Starlink's special school, I won't give her to you! ”

Like a she-cat whose tail had been stepped on, Shepard instantly burst out, took two fierce steps forward with his fists in his hands, and stared at the Phantom Man, the leader of Cerberus, who wanted to hit the little girl, as if he had punched him twice.

Fortunately, she remembered that here, it was just a holographic simulation scene conversation, not that the other party was really in front of her.

"Humph!"

"Leave it to Starlink...... Is there any difference between it and giving it to us Cerberus? Shepard, you're still a little too naïve to see the essence of the matter. ”

Flicking the ashes, the Phantom Man continued to look at Shepard with a blank expression, then shook his head a little helplessly.

He felt that if that little girl was really handed over to them to be trained and arranged by Cerberus, in the future, the combat power that the other party could exert would definitely be terrifying, definitely far better than staying in the Star Alliance Navy and being constrained by those so-called rules and regulations!

Their Cerberus warriors can do whatever it takes to carry out their missions, and as long as they can ensure their completion, they are much better in terms of freedom and safety.

Moreover, they Cerberus are also more willing to spend more money on elite warriors, the best weapons, equipment and ships, how good they are! It's not like the starlink that picks the door, it takes a long time to build a spaceship and a budget!

At that time, they Cerberus might have built even a fleet.

“……”

"Anne's affairs should be chosen by herself, and I won't let any of you interfere easily!"

After a moment of silence, Shepard decided that he would never make any concessions on this matter!

She felt that what the little guy wanted, or wait for the other party to choose for himself in a few years, instead of irrelevant people to set the other party's future path casually, that was too ruthless for a little girl.

"Then let's do it first, the coordinates have been sent......"

"Shepard! I'm afraid it's going to be serious, and it's the highest level of security alert we've ever received! 'Horizon' there...... It may be dangerous now, whether it is our colony of Cerberus or the troops of the Star Alliance, they have all lost contact!

"So, good luck to you!"

After saying that, the phantom man was no longer verbose, and he didn't want to quarrel with Shepard when he was about to go on a dangerous mission! So, after taking one last look at the woman standing in the middle of the conference room who he had spent a lot of money to resurrect, he nodded indifferently and turned off the remote holographic communication.

“……”

"You should have received the 'Joker' coordinates, right? Now turn Normandy II and set off right away, setting the closest route to Horizon! ”

"I'll go to the lab first to see Professor Mordin's progress, and let me know if there's any situation!"

After watching the surrounding area revert to the cold and dark steel cabin, Shepard was silent for a while, then took a deep breath and decided to put some annoying things aside for the time being and complete the most important task at the moment!

Therefore, she directly called the helmsman 'Joker' in the bridge command room to give the latest order.

'Obeth sir! ’

'The coordinates have been entered, and the fastest route has been chosen! ’

'It is expected that our ship will be able to reach the orbit of the 'Horizon' colony planet on time after thirty-six hours and twenty-four minutes! Commander, I suppose you might as well have a good rest for the first time? ’

Soon, the voice of the helmsman clown located on the bridge was heard directly from the call sensors on the bulkhead, and then the ship began to jolt slightly, apparently the first time that the clown began to control the ship's steering and enter a faster-than-light flight state.

"Thirty-six hours...... Hopefully, it's still too late, right? ”

After a slight muttering and estimation, Shepard breathed a sigh of relief, turned and walked briskly towards the door of the secret conference room.

"Strange ......"

"Annie, that little one, why did she go to Mordin's lab again? Tut! I hope she won't be too naughty and affect Mordin's experimental progress! Otherwise, this mission will be in big trouble! ”

Turning on her multi-tool, Shepard saw that Mordin was busy in the laboratory of the lowest engineering department in Normandy, and at the same time, she saw that a little girl's signal was there at the same time, and she quickly turned around and walked briskly in the direction of the ship's elevator.

Dr. Mordin's research on controlling and paralyzing stinger swarms is crucial to their next mission, and if they are disrupted by that imp and their progress is affected, their actions in the Horizon colony may be miserable, and maybe they will not be able to move an inch?

So, she had to stop the little guy right away!

————————

Buzz Buzz......

Bored little Anne is having a relationship with Mordin, a Serarius man?? Dr. Sollers stayed in the lab, working together on a wasp about the size of a fist that was being locked in a large box made of blast glass...... Or should I say it's an alien big mosquito?

That's right, it's just to study together, definitely not to make trouble!

o(〃'▽'〃)o

After all, interstellar travel is really boring, and you can't go anywhere except to eat and sleep! And after the entire ship had been visited by her several times, and she couldn't get any more familiar, except for a monster crooked star with big eyes and a small head here in this laboratory, there really wasn't anything interesting for her to kill time or play.

"It's obviously a big mosquito, where is the bee?"

"You crooked bees, they all look so strange? Will it make that delicious honey? ”

(○???? д??)??？

Anyway, no matter how Anne leaned into the glass, she didn't think she was the kind of bee that could make sweet honey!

The big guy inside looks weird, with four legs that look a bit like frogs, sharp claws, a sharp beak like a bird's beak, and a thick shell and wings like dragonflies...... How can such a disgusting thing be called a wasp?

The other party looks like a bee or a wasp or something that obviously has nothing to do with it, it's just a little monster!

Buzz Buzz......

Syllable!!

Σ(°△°|||) ︴

A muffled sound!

Just as Anne leaned over to take a closer look, the strange thing that was floating in the middle of the transparent box suddenly accelerated and hit her fiercely, as if trying to pounce on her face and bite her?

It's a pity that the sturdy explosion-proof glass makes it ruthlessly block the innermost part, so that its pounce can only hit the glass in vain, and the sharp claws pierce the top, but there is not even a paw print or white mark.

"Huh?"

"You little thing still dare to scare me, I'll kill you later!!"

（｀へ?? ）○～

Anne, who was fascinated by her research just now, was really taken aback by the other party's behavior!

She was a little puzzled, just such a big and lost bug, and still wanted to pounce on her face? Hum! Borrow a hundred guts and try it, you can't burn it!

Not to mention that there is glass blocking it now, even if it really doesn't, if it dares to pounce on her face so casually, it will definitely die a miserable death!

Buzzing.....

m(ΘΘ)m

Syllable!

Buzz Buzz.....

Syllable! Syllable!!

Obviously, the little bug didn't understand what Anne was saying, and it probably didn't know what glass was, so it just kept flying around inside, desperately trying to rush out and bite the human girl with a small pink face who was watching it.

"Annie, please don't provoke it, we won't have material if it accidentally hits us in a while, that's the last living specimen."

"There are only five of us in total, and now you've killed three......"

On the side, Dr. Mordin, the Serradian who was designing and optimizing an armor part on a device, had to stop what he was doing at this moment, and turned to the little girl and whispered.

The lifespan of the Serari is very short, and the Salarians over the age of forty are very rare!

Therefore, they usually think quickly, speak quickly, act quickly, think and act very actively! And like Mordin, it means that he has entered 10,000 years, and there are not many years to live.

"Please stay away from it, or it will keep trying to attack you."

In the past few days, except for him, Mordin, who has dissected and studied one by himself, the other two have been played to death by the little girl...... The other one accidentally flew out, and when he was about to attack the little guy, he was knocked to the ground alive by the stuffed toy bear that the other party often carried in his hand, and then the little foot went up...... Just step on it!

Originally, Mordin still had a lot of doubts about the legend of this little girl in the Omega space station, after all, he had not seen that situation in person? Therefore, he has always been a little reluctant to believe that such a little guy as her can really beat three mercenary groups to abandon their weapons and surrender!

But...... When he saw that the other party had simply tortured and killed the bug, he was a little willing to believe it.

He knows the power of those bugs very well, even ordinary adults, without weapons, I am afraid that they will inevitably be bitten and paralyzed by the other party! But as a result, the bug was played with and trampled to death by the little guy like a toy, which does seem to say something.

At least, Mordin thinks that no matter how bad this little human girl is, she is also a quick-eyed little guy, maybe this is the talent of human beings, right? It is not for nothing that they have been able to grow to this point in just a few decades.

"Cut!"

(ˉ▽ ̄~) cut ~~

"Anyway, you've researched that kind of armor to protect against insects now, so what does it matter if it's dead now?"

"Let me tell you, how spicy and ugly it is, I don't like it when I look at it, so I want to step on it to death!"

(￣へ￣)

Anne doesn't like this alien bug called 'Wasp' very much, and if she can, she even wants to just let the other person out, and then secretly set a fire to burn it directly!

Besides, Shepard's big sister has said that these bugs are a gang of villains sent by a gang of 'Collectors' or 'Reapers', and it is always good to burn them.

"You're right, but Annie, you need to know ......"

"We've only come up with two effective ways to protect against bugs, but we haven't been able to find a way to attack them...... So, do we still need it to stay alive? ”

After thinking about it with the keen observation and non-linear thinking of their Serarians, Mordin uttered a statement that should be understood by the little girl, and that was why he wanted to keep the live worm and keep it all the time.

Engaging in genetic research and having a complete specimen of a living body is certainly better than preserving dissected living cells! Maybe it'll be useful at some point!

"Attack tactics against this bed bug? So what's there to study? ”

"You see, they're so weak, it's actually super easy to deal with this kind of bug, I can just step on them with one kick!"

(ˉ▽ ̄~) cut ~~

Isn't it just a big mosquito that has always had a big fist and can use paralyzing toxins?

If you let Anne come, she has 10,000 ways to deal with them! Whether it's a stick to death, a slap to death, a slap to the ground, or a slap on the ground, or magic or something, it's so simple that you don't need to study how to target them!

"This ......"

Mordin opened his mouth, but finally shook his head, and continued his work, while modifying his shooting, wanting to reduce the power consumption and volume of some kind of module a little more, while dealing with the little human girl next to him:

"Annie, these 'poisonous bees' are not just three or five, when they appear, they are overwhelming, at least tens or even millions...... Like a dark cloud, it can directly envelop the entire colony...... Unless you're wearing thick solid-state fully enclosed protective armor, or staying in a fully sealed house, no one will be their match! ”

"So, what we're not doing now is enough, we also need to have the most effective way to deal with them, rather than passively interfering with them and preventing them from attacking."

Mordin patiently explained that he had seen a small video of the 'swarms' attacking the colonies in the Seberus profile, so of course he knew the desperation of the colony's humans in the face of such a terrifying mass of flying monsters......

What's more, these 'poisonous bees' have conclusive evidence that they are controlled by those 'collectors', then this thing is very terrifying, their stingers can pierce ordinary soft protective clothing, if you don't find a way to restrain and kill them in large numbers, whether it is human or other races, when releasing this kind of 'swarm' that covers the sky and the sun for free, except for the heavy armored units, other soldiers will not be spared.

So, the next research is a must!

"Are there so many of them?"

"In that case, why don't you just burn them all with flames?"

~(￣0￣)/

No matter how many Anne there are, no matter how many of them are, whether they are using her lava shield or directly burning them with magic, there will not be enough for her to burn! If you want to beat her with quantity, it is a false proposition that cannot exist!

"Hmm......"

"Flames? Oh...... I understand. ”

Mordin thought he was talking about flamethrowers, hesitated for a moment, nodded his head, but quickly shook his head again.

"It's really a good way to use flames to deal with 'bee swarms', but the cost is a little too high, and it has a lot of limitations, so I'm afraid it's not very practical......"

Flames must be able to burn these flying insects in a strange state, in fact, flames can destroy almost all living creatures and machines, even in the current war, close-range inland flame weapons also have a great effect, and often appear in the weapon options of various races of marines, such as the human M415 Firestorm?

It's a pity that when dealing with those 'swarms' all over the sky, those flamethrower weapons with limited killing distance and limited killing area are not enough, far from enough.

"So what do you say?"

"Didn't we just make a high-temperature version of Mass Effect Shield? As long as the bugs come up, they will be burned directly, don't they want to die?! ”

ㄟ(▔，▔)ㄏ

This doesn't work, that doesn't work, Anne really doesn't know what this little alien old man with a small head and big eyes wants to do, this seems to be a very simple thing, why do you have to make it so complicated?

"Hmm......"

"Annie, that Mass Effect 'Lava Shield' you suggested to me is a great invention! At least, that's how it comes to dealing with these bugs...... However, that would be a waste of energy, and once it is besieged by thousands of bugs, the shield will soon be overloaded and offline! ”

"When the time comes......"

Speaking of this, Mordin smiled wryly and clicked on the simulation data on the console, and he quickly calculated that under normal circumstances, the number of shields when overloaded by bugs is ...... About three hundred?

In other words, even with the high-temperature version of the Mass Effect shield, it can only defend against a maximum of three hundred flying insects, which is obviously far from enough.

"You also saw it two days ago, and once they come out, they will attack us living people in a frenzy, without any fear or hesitation...... And in that sense, my armor that interferes with their bands is much more practical than the 'lava shield' you suggested......"

Mordin didn't want to discourage the little guy too much, so he said a few more words, and he was more patient with this cute and talented guy.

"This doesn't work, that doesn't work, it's really troublesome! So what do you want to do with them? ”

(￣.￣)

Anne is out of the question, the best way to deal with the villains is to set fire directly, if you come to one, you will release a fragmented fireball, and if you come to two or a group, you will burn a large piece and never fall!

If ah, if there is a villain who can't be burned with incineration, then she still has Big Ivan, as soon as she throws it down, she runs away, and the whole world is clean......

ψ(｀????) ψ

"I want to ......"

"We may need to look into a more efficient and targeted genetic insecticide......"

At this point, Mordin's big eyes suddenly became a little dull and uneasy.

Back then, he participated in the extermination plan of the Krogan people...... At that time, the genetic weapons he improved and researched made the death rate of newborns of the Krogan reach a staggering 99.9%...... This incident, all these years, has been condemned and tormented by his conscience and morality!

That's why he went to the slums of Omega and gave his life to research the antidote to the plague! This is the real reason why he wants to find out the real reason for saving those innocent people no matter what, even if he risks his life!

In fact, it is nothing more than his own redemption of himself......

This of course also includes the real reason why he agreed to Shepard's call-up and wanted to do more for the galaxy in order to save the world! If he can really make a contribution in the future and succeed in saving the world from the hands of those 'reapers', presumably the invisible condemnation of him by the affairs of the Krogan people should offset and alleviate a lot, right?

Originally, he didn't want to touch such a thing as a genetic weapon in his life, but if it was to protect the galaxy from threats, then he would still be willing to do it.

Of course, Krogan has never told anyone about the Gene Extinction Weapon, and has always silently hidden it in his heart.

"Doctor!"

At this moment, the door to the laboratory on the lowest floor of Normandy was suddenly opened from the outside, and Mordin and little Anne saw the Shepard stride in.

"Dr. Mordin, how is your research going, and have you achieved any results?"

“？！”

"And, Anne, please don't come here to make trouble, go somewhere else!"

After asking Dr. Mordin first, Shepard crossed his arms and stared at the little guy who looked like a little adult with some headaches, ready to start chasing people.

They can play anywhere, but not here, especially when she desperately needs Dr. Mordin to figure out how to target the 'swarm'!

"I didn't make trouble!"

ヾ(?? ｀Д????)?? hair

Anne has helped a lot in the past two days, and has given a lot of valuable advice, where is the trouble? At most, she just accidentally killed three live specimens! But there's only one left, so there's no need to worry too much about those things.

"Troublemaker? No, no, no......"

"Commander Shepard, you may not know, but this kid has inspired me a lot and helped me develop a more efficient Mass Effect 'Lava Shield' anti-swarm armor!"

"And, of course, the swarm misleading armor."

"Please come here......"

As he spoke, Mordin motioned for the other party to walk over to the console in front of him so that he could explain carefully.

"I found that those poisonous bees are not very intelligent?"

"So, this swarm misleading armor is something I've researched based on how the swarm is connected to each other and the special bands they emit, so that the swarm can mistakenly think you're part of their own swarm, and then they won't attack you in any way!"

"And the Mass Effect 'Lava Shield' is the inspiration that little Annie gave me!"

"As you know, the Mass Effect Shield only protects against high-velocity kinetic bullets and particle streams, and is so unreliable against low-velocity approaching targets that the swarm can easily approach us and launch a stinger attack...... So, at Anne's suggestion, I changed the shield setting a little bit, so that it could emit ultra-high frequency bands and heat up the parts of the enemy when it was touched by a foreign object at low speed, and then directly roast and burn the bugs! ”

"Look at ....."

"That's it, it's a great idea! It can also play a complementary role in the armor against insects, and minimize the danger of facing insects! ”

Mordin called up a model of armor on his holographic test bench and happily explained.

"It doesn't need to be produced separately, just add new modules to your armor."

"If I had enough time, I could have optimized it even smaller...... But how long does that take? ”

Mordin finished in one breath, and then nodded at some tsundere little girl.

"See, I'm amazing!"

(￣^￣)

“……”

"Well, I'm sorry Anne, I take back what I just said......"

Although Shepard was a little incredulous, he still encouraged the general to want to touch the head of the well-behaved little guy, but unfortunately, the other party easily avoided it.

"By the way, Big Sister Shepard, when are we going to land?"

゛(‘◇’)?

"Dock, what do you want to do?"

They had only been away from Omega for a few days, so why did they need to find a place to dock and resupply so early? Moreover, he is about to go on a rescue mission to the Horizon colony, and he will not dock at this time.

"Of course, it's to buy something to eat!"

?? (??????????)??

“……”

"We're going on a mission, I'm afraid we won't be on a mission anytime soon....."

"Huh? Where to go? ”

"A colony planet called 'Horizon', which can probably be reached the morning after tomorrow!"

"Is there anything good to eat?"

“……”

"I don't know, there should be, right?"

"Then what are you waiting for, hurry up and set off!"

“……”

"We're already in faster-than-light flight!"

"Huh? You won't just fold the prancing horse? ”

"Leap? What is that? ”

"It's teleportation!"

"There are no Mass Effect repeaters near here, and we are already in the Boundary-God Galaxy now, so we can only fly over there!"

"It's so bad, you can't break the ship!"

"Where is that kind of teleportation with a twist?"

"My spaceship has it!"

“……”
