Many, many, many, many years ago, there was a highly intelligent species at the top of the universe - the giant Leviathan (a mixture of whales, crocodiles, and lobsters). They possess the ability to control and mind control (education), and in addition to this, they also have powerful technological power, and all races in the galaxy can only submit to them.

During their long reign over the galaxy, the Leviathan discovered a strange phenomenon - organic species are always destroyed by the synthesis (artificial intelligence) they created - so Leviathan summed up the famous syllogism:

"The universe will inevitably give birth to organic civilization"; "Organic civilization inevitably creates a synthetic life"; "Synthetic life will inevitably destroy organic civilization".

So the Leviathan race, after exhaustive thinking, created a synthetic battleship creature called "Reaper" (which is both a battleship and a synthetic life, is it very similar to the ship's mother?). ）。 This creature will preemptively harvest all the organic civilizations that have entered the pangalactic era before they are destroyed by synthetics, and then "preserve" their genetic information (in fact, it is to make new reaper warships from the corpses of creatures of each species).

In this way, it not only "retains" the genetic information of organic civilization, but also provides development space for the birth of a new civilization, which can be described as the best of both worlds! So the giant Leviathan race suddenly felt that his IQ was off the charts, and he was very tall!

And then...... The Leviathan race became the first organic civilization to be exterminated by the Reapers......

Crafted in the form of the Leviathan, known as the Harbingers, the Synthetic Battleship is the oldest and largest of the Reapers. The Harbinger doesn't just have the form of a behemoth, Leviathan. It also inherited its psychic ability (enlightenment), and since then the reincarnation of the galaxy has been harvested every 50,000 years.

Thereafter. The Reapers also pooled the technology of the harvested civilization to build the Citadel Space Station. and Mass Effect repeaters across the galaxy. They have guided the development of civilizations across the galaxy, following the same path each time - and since then, the Reaper's job has been much simpler, and there is no need to work overtime......

The wheel of history advances to the era of Lu Yuan.

50,000 years ago, the Prothean people, who dominated the entire galaxy, suddenly became extinct, and this organic civilization, which came to an abrupt halt after its peak, left countless relics throughout the galaxy - one on our Mars.

In 2148, humans discovered the remains of Protheus on Mars.

It was with the help of the excavation and research of the ruins that mankind discovered the "mass effect field" of "Element Zero"; and Charon, the moon of Pluto. In fact, it is a secondary Mass Effect repeater - since then, humanity has happily stepped into the era of pan-galactic colonization!

But who knows that Nima is actually the last train to death! The 50,000-year harvest is about to start again! Humanity is dying in the crowded galaxy - know that the Reapers only exterminate the races that have already stepped into the galaxy! Those civilizations that still play with mud in their own homes belong to the category of protection!

As long as human beings step out of the solar system forty years later, everything will be different! (I'd rather give three points than grab a second, it's really a wise saying!) By that time, the Milky Way will be very empty. The Citadel space station is open and waiting for humans to take over...... Because all the races of Ox X have been harvested! Don't worry about the Reapers, they won't be back until 50,000 years away - a full 50,000 years of development! There is no problem for human beings to regain or even surpass the glory of the Protheus!

Unfortunately, this is such a historic opportunity. Stirred up by a group of archaeologists who set foot on Mars - at this time, humans who had just entered the galaxy did not know anything about the Reaper. I don't know what kind of peerless natural disaster I will face thirty years later! The countdown to the extinction of the human race has begun......

……

In 2154, the only hope for the continuation of galactic civilization. The main character, Shepard, was born. Shepard was born with clear eyebrows, a tiger's back, a heroic posture, and a bewitching posture...... To put it simply, before Shepard came on the scene. The masturbation master also doesn't know his gender.

Looking at the simple history of the world of Mass Effect laid out on the holographic screen, the passengers on the Dawn were collectively speechless. Of course,For the final description of the protagonist,,Everyone collectively ignored it - think about Chanem who won the world.,And Komuro Takashi in the world of the school apocalypse...... Lu Yuan, this guy, has always been the protagonist black ...... who makes the protagonist become a passerby

The human race of this world is also tragic - only unlike the human race of this world, the human race of the Mass Effect World is completely out of self-choice, and there is no element of coercion! But in the 50,000-year-long cycle of reincarnation, rushing to board the death train in the last forty years, this strong sense of immediacy is really speechless - in addition to "bad luck", I am afraid that the only word left in everyone's minds is "to die".

Of course, humanity itself does not know where the future holds. But it is precisely because it is unconsciously going to the abyss that it makes onlookers even more frightened.

"There are no reapersin in our universe, and the Mona civilization has reached its peak, and if they really occupy a quarter of the Perseus cantilever ......" Lady Dawn identified the star map of the Milky Way (here the Milky Way is a barred spiral galaxy with only two spiral arms), "then we may have to sail a thousand light-years along the spiral arms before we can really leave the Mona empire."

Of course, entering the Dark Universe is also an option (that is, leaving the spiral arm vertically and entering the galaxiless outer universe). It is almost impossible to ensure that the Mona people will not be discovered during this period, and to find an unowned planet suitable for human development......"

"So, entering the real world of Mass Effect is our only hope of being able to fight back against Mona in the future!" Lu Yuan stood up and said, "The next thing I should consider is how to snatch the ownership of this world!" How to defeat the Reaper! How to ensure the vitality of the various races in the galaxy as much as possible after completing the initialization process of this world. A highly productive galaxy, a peaceful and well-armed world, can be a logistical base for our war against the Monas, and it would be pointless to get a piece of ruins. ”

"The process of world initialization should be cautious, and it should not change too much at once!" The main god Xing Yan solemnly reminded Lu Yuan. "If there is a deviation in such a large real world, with the strength of Nana and me, we can't save it all."

A real material world was born in this way - the Lord God planted a seed in the source sea, which contained the rules and expectations she had set for the world. Then the seed absorbs the power of the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi of the Source Sea and begins the evolution of the world. In the whole process, the seed not only has to absorb the power of the source sea, but the main god is also constantly investing in the power, supervising and adjusting the "growth" of the world, so that it can be completely shaped according to its own ideas.

In order to perfect the growth of this tree, the main god usually repeated this process countless times when he created the zào projection virtual world and the semi-material plot world.

When the world is completely formed, there is a specific ritual to guide the world - this process is called the initialization of the world. The initialization process of each world is different, so even if Xing Yan has experience in initializing the world, he still can't give too much construction. And the initialization of the "Mass Effect" world, because it is generated according to Lu Yuan's memory, so its initialization process is to complete the trilogy of plots......

But how should the plot be completed? Can the plot be changed? How much can it be changed? These are unknown problems, and they require a little bit of exploration by the two main gods - if the deviation is too great, they have to put in the strength to reverse it. However, generally speaking, the restrictions are not too big - as long as Lu Yuan doesn't let the dogs bite all the reapers to death at the beginning, it shouldn't be bad.

……

Just as everyone was enthusiastically discussing the ideas of the new world, the dragon god Luotai, who had been listening, raised his hand and asked to speak. Lu Yuan looked at her with unkind eyes—but because everyone was looking forward to what Xiao Luo wanted to say with great interest, Lu Yuan also had to nod in agreement.

"You said that the Reaper brought together the research results of countless generations of civilizations in the reincarnation of the harvest, and the Mass Effect Repeater and the huge artificial celestial body 'Divine Citadel' were built by them, right?" Long Shenluo looked at Lu Yuan with too pure big eyes, and asked in a sweet voice, Lu Yuan nodded.

"You said that the Reaper's Overlord-class battleship is as long as two kilometers, and compared to the same warships of the Galactic civilization race, the combat power ratio is at least one to four, right? You said that the largest main warships of the Reaper type are at least a few hundred, and the second-class 160-meter-long 'Ruine' battleships are in the tens of thousands, and they can't be counted at all, right? Dragon God Luo Tai continued to ask innocent questions, and Lu Yuan continued to nod.

"You said that the Reapers, as well as the reformed Protheus, the indoctrinated geth as a servant army, and the indoctrinated Phantom People in the future will also instruct the Greyhounds to jump out and make trouble, right?" Lu Yuan was speechless, he could only nod.

"You just said you were going to defeat the Reaper?" The innocent-eyed dragon god Lota gave him the final blow! The main god of the meeting around, the artificial intelligence, Misha and Mu Xing, and Yakumo Zi, laughed so much that they almost hit the street!

This dead kid who only knows how to demolish my stage!!! Lu Yuan was going crazy......

"Do you want to reconsider?" Dragon God Luo Tai looked like I was thinking about you, and added a supplementary knife, "Let's choose again, maybe it's better to fight with Mo Na." ”

Lao Lu clenched his fists and knelt on the ground, and a beam of light shone down...... I'm not going to let this dead kid come to the conference again!

"Ahem, I have a plan......" When Lu Yuan stood on the stage again, tears flowed in his heart! was supposed to be a very handsome speech, but under a series of questions from Longshen Luotai, it sounded like he was quibbling weakly, "Forget it, let's wait and see!" ”

――――――

PS: This chapter is rather boring, but since it is the basic setting of this volume, it is not easy to explain the background of Mass Effect in a few hundred words. Or ask book friends to take a look, basically everyone who has played the game knows it, and you can skip it. (To be continued......)
