3-46 Communication with the Ancients

"This is the Federal Foreign Office Special Foreign Affairs Operation Ship Shixiang, and I am the Federal Military AttachΓ© Steven, and it is a pleasure to work with you. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Standing on the bridge of the Incident, Ambassador Steven looked at Talos, the commander of the 7th Company of the Golden Locust in brass-colored armor, with a serious face on the other side of the screen: "Is it the combat order issued by the Galactic Theater Command to your regiment?" ”

"Yes, after the communication between Field Marshal Lincoln and Commander Cranshaw, it was decided that the Seventh Company would be in charge of carrying out this mission, and we would work with the Second Company of the Holy Silver Angel Legion and the Fourth Company of the Soul Drinker to complete the operation against Lendinium and provide air support; If necessary, carry out anti-ship missions. ”

"Thank you for your assistance." Steven gave a military salute: "I will send the details to me soon, please receive it." ”

"Thank you very much, that's the call." Talos returned a military salute before turning off the comms.

"End of call." Steven exited the communication channel, then leaned back and collapsed in his chair.

"What, so nervous?" Captain Carl watched as Steven slumped in his command chair and took out a bottle of Quantum Coke and drank it, revealing his ...... Subtle smile: "Still not used to communicating with Space Marines?" ”

"I'm afraid it is, after all, in a way, Space Marines are not the same existence as us."

Steven shook his head: "Although I personally respect them, how can I say it...... What they receive, the transformation surgery that originated in the Empire, will more or less turn them into ...... Unusual from the ordinary, huh...... Although as warriors, as protectors of humanity, they do deserve a lot of respect. ”

Steven snorted: "Say, what are we going to do next?" Straight to the Imperial World called Lendinium? Seriously, this operation is not very diplomatic, as such a use of force to intervene in the territory of the Empire that has not been invaded by the Tyranids would seriously irritate the Empire's nerves. ”

"But the Federation has people and property there to protect, and besides, you shouldn't know exactly what the Chaos Invasion is all about, right? Our policy of chaos is not much different from that of Empire. ”

Carl clasped his hands to his chest and squinted his eyes slightly: "Besides, that guy Burke seems to be there too...... He seems to have been caught up in the situation. ”

"Burke? He has been searching for death since Axe's death...... Well, that more or less provided us with a personal reason to go there. I'll go with the other representatives on our ship and hope they don't have any objections. ”

Steven stood up, and then casually activated the degradation program to disassemble the Coke bottle: "Okay, then I'll go, I'm not very good at phase calculation, so I won't make a mess here." Goodbye, Carl, Sigma. ”

"Goodbye, Mr. Steven."

"Okay, get out." Karl waved his hand impatiently, and Steven smiled helplessly, turning and walking into the teleporter.

With a burst of white light, Steven appeared in the Elephant's lab, and as expected, he saw three regulars in the lab.

"Actually, Mr. Immorton, I don't know much about space necromancy...... I'm afraid of the scientific information of the dead, but I must say that you are the most knowledgeable scientist I have ever met in my life, and damn it, the professors in the Society are probably willing to break the bank to exchange an academic opinion with you! How did you come up with this data algorithm? ”

Marco, the ship's only high-ranking engineer, was now looking feverishly at the Necromantic Aspect Technician standing next to him, his face flushed unnaturally.

"Calmly, Engineer Marco, you're overloaded with adrenaline, which isn't a good thing for an organic life like you. Actually, this algorithm is something I came up with recently, and it's not that complicated. The phase technician answered Marco's question in the lingua franca of the Federation in a cold, standard tone that didn't change his tone, his skeletal head of fluid metal staring intently at the data board in front of him.

So, is it a miscalculation caused by the misalignment of the third and fifth parameters? Excuse me, for I have no visual organs, so I can only speculate like this. The last ethereal voice echoed through the lab, and the other two were not surprised.

Steven knew who he was.

Latis9677, Latisian's traveling scientist, is also a researcher and diplomat currently stationed on the Elephant. The Latisians are brilliant theoretical scientists, and their crystal bodies make them have little physical need and little hands-on ability, but they make up for it with their extraordinary intelligence and thinking skills, and they come from the same system as the Federation. But in terms of appearance, I'm afraid that the creatures in the galaxy have never seen life like them.

Of course, they were a simple and noble race by nature, and Steven knew that better than anyone else.

"Good day, everybody." Steven, who was more or less a scientist, knew how annoying it was to disrupt scientists' train of thought, so he simply waited until they had finished discussing the current issue and were about to switch topics, and then decisively stepped forward to greet the three of them. "Good work, Mr. Marco. Mr. Latheis, Mr. Immorton, are you still accustomed to the Elephant? ”

"Ah, Mr. Ambassador, my God, I don't know what to say...... The erudition of His Excellency Immorton and His Excellency Latis is far beyond my imagination! It was my personal pleasure to have two real scientists on board. ”

Marco was still excited: "Oh my God, do you have something to find the two of them?" Sorry, then I'm going to calm down and have a cup of coffee or tea. Marco left with the data board, muttering some formulas and data as he went.

"I'm sorry, Engineer Marco was a little too excited." Steven put it this way: "Did he bother you in any way? ”

"Actually, no, Your Excellency. Everyone on board you are friendly, and the warmth of Engineer Marco ...... Truth be told, it's been a long time since I've had this kind of exchange, and even though I'm not flesh and blood now, it's still very beneficial to me. Immorton said in a serious, cold mechanical voice.

Seriously, if someone else had been someone else, he'd have been considered very difficult to get along with - although other space necrons are pretty much the same thing - but Steven found that Immorton was definitely the best kind of person to get along with, even by human standards.

"In the community, this kind of academic exchange is considered beneficial, and I am personally satisfied." Latis's ethereal voice came through with the help of a translator: "Do you have something to do with us?" ”

"Actually, I have some questions that I need to ask you two for" Then, Steven turned to look at Immorton, "Especially your opinion, Your Excellency Immorton." ”

"I want to hear about it."

"So." Steven's expression became extremely serious: "Void Force Field Matrix, do you have a way to mobilize?" ”

"You asked a good question, Your Excellency." Immorton's eyes flashed with a blue light: "I guess the problem you need to solve is probably not those organic matter devourers, but those galactic parasites, right?" ”

"Have you always been so prescient?" Steven smiled bitterly helplessly.

"For the most part, I do." Immorton nodded at his metal skull, "I can indeed move, and this is also within the framework of our agreement, let me know when you need to, and I will have my guards ready for it." ”

"Thank you very much."

"It doesn't have to be that way, Your Excellency. These parasites who dare to steal the dominion of the creatures of the galaxy...... Destroying them is my pleasure. ”
