This is how they embark on a journey to the Citadel, which is different from the one in the game, which requires a lot of Mass Effect repeaters and multiple regular cruises. There are no pop-up windows on the net, and the update is fast // The distance of tens of thousands of light years is not for fun.

The Citadel Space Station is a very large man-made space station. The prevailing view is that the Citadel is a relic of the long-extinct Prothean civilization. The length of the space station is almost 50 kilometers and consists of five huge cantilever arms and a ring in the center.

Although it is a very old space station, the Citadel is very sturdy and looks like it has just been built. The main material used in the construction of the Citadel is a very dense alloy, with a surface density close to that of a neutron star.

Its material properties make it impossible for any current means of detection to effectively detect the true depths of the Citadel. Where it came from and how it was made remains a mystery. However, its sturdiness is obvious to all.

It is said that when the Asari discovered the Citadel, they conducted a detailed investigation of it, but they were still unable to find out how the Citadel operates. Destructive testing on it also failed. Eventually, they made their home here and established what is now the Castle.

The only thing known is that the Citadel has a primary system that repairs itself, maintained by the Guardian race here. And the arms of the fortress can be closed at any time through the guòkong zhì center, shrinking into a space station of a super fortress.

Because of this characteristic, many historians believe that the Citadel was supposed to be a military space station for the Protheans. But to this day, the original purpose of the Citadel remains a mystery.

After thousands of years of development and the joining of dozens of races, the Citadel has become the political, cultural and financial center of the galaxy, and all the major intelligent races have built embassies here. The Citadel Council is also stationed here all year round to coordinate conflicts between member states.

Although it seems fair, there are only three races in the Citadel Council that are qualified to deliberate and decide on proposals submitted by other races, and these three races do not currently include humans.

The Citadel Council has existed for thousands of years, and it has been less than 30 years since mankind signed the Citadel Convention, although the speed of human development is unparalleled. In these 30 years, it has grown from a small race on the edge of the galaxy to a large race that is very important.

However, Starlink still does not have enough say in the council. Many races are worried about the rapid development of humanity. Because of this, Starlink has been seeking a higher status on the Council. One of the most important aspects is the selection of a human "ghost".

Anderson's defeat more than a decade ago made the Star League realize that they must elect a super-soldier who is far more capable than ordinary people to be worthy of the title of "Ghost". Now, they're waiting for their chance.

At this time, Shen Chao and the others were looking at the spectacle in front of them. It was their first time at the Citadel, and all of the Marines were gathered in the wheelhouse of Normandy, looking out through the huge lookout window. Shepard is no exception.

In a thin nebula, a massive space station slowly revealed its massive size, though it was still a thousand kilometers away from the Citadel. But its enormity still left a deep impression on Shen Chao.

Not only is there a huge space station, but there is also a combined fleet of three major races cruising around the clock. Only a few hundred kilometers from the space station, they saw the Touareg fleet in the distance.

"Hey, look at that ......" Jenkens shouted as he pointed to a huge figure in the distance, and everyone looked over and saw a huge battleship cruising dozens of kilometers away. That's the Destiny Extraordinary. A super dreadnought built by the Asare.

The dreadnought is more than four times larger than humanity's largest dreadnought, making it the largest known warship in the galaxy outside of the Overlord. It is also the only super battleship that can be compared to the Overlord-class Reaper at the moment. …,

The Manifest Transcendent's size is enormous. It makes Normandy, which passes by dozens of kilometers away, look as small as a model toy. Of course, volume is only one aspect, and its firepower is the real galaxy first.

Equipped with an oversized Mass Effect generator, the Destiny Transcendent also boasts unmatched cruise speed, a powerful kinetic energy barrier, and superior firepower capable of killing any human-made warship in a single shot.

"It's the Destiny Transcendental......" Cayden revealed the answer, and it looked like he had been to the Citadel before.

"I've heard that its main gun can penetrate the protective ...... of any Star Alliance warship in one hit," Ashley sighed as he looked at the figure of the giant ship in front of him. However, after two days of cruising, the injury on her leg has healed.

Shen Chao knew. While this ship is the pride of the Asare, it is also a symbol of the unquestionable strength of the Citadel Council. But in a few more months. This seemingly invincible super battleship, along with the good-looking and powerful Citadel fleet next to it, will face an unprecedented test.

If things don't go well, this super fleet, which has been undefeated for thousands of years, may even face the danger of total annihilation. Of course, this has nothing to do with Shen Chao now, at this time, Normandy has been anchored in a fortress port in the Star United Control zhì.

But they had to wait half a minute before they could open the hatch. Because the control arm attached to the hull of their ship is performing standard discharge procedures.

If the Mass Effect spacecraft is not discharged in time, it is likely that too much static electricity will accumulate and eventually dissipate in the form of heat energy, which will eventually cause the hull to melt and the ship to be destroyed. Therefore, the discharge procedure after each arrival at the port is a routine process.

It didn't take long for the discharge procedure to be completed, and under Shepard's command, he and the other Marines put on their full body armor and left Normandy under Shepard's leadership. They first escorted Nerus, who was lying on a stretcher unconscious, to the Citadel Central Hospital.

After arranging a whole team of Starlink soldiers in the embassy area to guard them, they could finally go to the human embassy with confidence. Theoretically, no matter how frenzied the killer Saren could find, it would be impossible to kill Nerus under the noses of dozens of well-trained Starlink soldiers.

After arranging the security of Nerus, they went straight to the human embassy in the Circle. The human ambassadors there have read their mission reports and are waiting for them to come over to protest to the Council.

The Ghost Mutiny is not unheard of in the history of the Citadel Council, but the legendary Saren wants the Council to recognize the elite of their elite. Atrius was a traitor, but not an easy task. Without solid evidence, the Council of the Divine Castle will not believe their claims.

Therefore, they need eyewitnesses and tainted witnesses to testify at the scene. After arriving at the Human Embassy, the ambassador first arranged for them to rest, and he was contacting the council to organize a hearing. The end result is that the hearing will be held in 2 days. The tragedy that took place in the human colony, although it had a heavy impact, was just an ordinary event in the complex conflicts of the galaxy.

After confirming the date of the meeting, Shen Chao and the others returned to Normandy, and Anderson arranged for them to take a one-day vacation, and they could visit the Citadel freely. And Shen Chao can finally proceed to the second phase of his plan.

He first changed his clothes and left the docking area like everyone else, and then found a bar in the guard section of the Citadel. He didn't go on a tour of the Citadel with the rest of the Marines.

He didn't feel it before, but after leaving the crew in Normandy, he suddenly felt very alone. Because the eyes are full of aliens, strange individuals of all races are drinking and fighting in this gloomy bar. …,

Although he had not been away from Normandy for a long time, he had already noticed the unique temperament of the Citadel, and here, he was an alien! It's not a crap, there are hundreds of people of more than a dozen races in this bar alone. Only a few of them are humans like him.

The eyes of a horde of aliens only lingered on him for a moment, and then it was time to do something. Shen Chao finally got rid of this strange atmosphere.

He's certainly not here to drink, and he doesn't want to experience the bizarre atmosphere of a zoo here, walking through the halls filled with the strange smell of all kinds of aliens, finding a bartender and starting to ask questions.

With Starcoin's help, he didn't have much trouble asking where to find the arms dealer and various other merchants. There is no prohibition on civilian arms trade in the Citadel space. However, only light weapons are available on the civilian arms market. If you want to buy heavy weapons, you can only go to black market merchants.

Shen Chao began his shopping trip in the Divine Citadel after asking clearly, first spending a morning contacting a few weapon dealers, and then returning to the main plane at lunchtime, bringing a whole box of gold. It took an afternoon to trade.

He first exchanged these hundreds of kilograms of gold for star coins, for a total of 1 million star coins. Once this step is complete, he begins the official big purchase.

In one afternoon, he purchased 50 Mass Effect assault rifles of various models, heavy, shotgun sniper rifles, etc., in addition to some medical glue and communication tools. These things are very useful for their future development.

After a busy day, he only had 200,000 star coins left in his hand, but his harvest was really huge, and 1 or 2 tons of supplies were sent to the hotel room where he stayed.

I have to say that the hotel in the interstellar era is indeed very high-tech, and the cargo carrying capacity of the passenger elevators here is indeed very strong. After all, many of their guests were very long in weight, and Shen Chao didn't attract too much attention from the well-informed people of the Divine Castle with so much luggage.

The price of a high-end hotel in the Citadel is very high, more than 1,000 Star Coins for just one night, which is equivalent to tens of thousands of dollars in the main plane. Far from being affordable for ordinary people.

After taking a shower in the bathroom, he carefully inspected every nook and cranny of the hotel room, and after making sure that there was nothing of any kind, he set off on the return journey with the goods.

He had just completed the first goal of the first phase of the plan, purchased enough combat supplies, and now it was time to go back and discuss the next move.
