Chapter 197: The Ghost Qualification of the New Target
Shen Chao knew that although Dr. Neville's research seemed to have made a great breakthrough overnight, in fact, they were still a long way from successfully planting the blood orchid and successfully transforming it into the team's elixir.
Before that, the most important thing they need to do is to continue to collect various technical equipment from the high-tech plane and build their moon base as soon as possible in order to be invincible.
The next world he was talking about was the Mass Effect World that Shen Chao had already been to once before, and they had already made preliminary preparations, and Shen Chao thought that this was the best time for them to return to this world.
The last time he returned from the world of Mass Effect, he had only completed the first objective of the first phase of Project M, and now that he had an elite team of supporters, he could try to get one step closer.
When he comes back this time, he will at least complete all the objectives of the first stage of the mission before he stops. If he allowed, he would even follow Shepard through the entire hunt for Saren this time.
To this end, over the next week, they conducted a large number of coordination tactical exercises. to ensure that their new tactics are as effective as possible.
Shen Chao's crossing this time will be alone, it's not that he doesn't want to lead the team to go with him, but he now has a safer arrangement.
A week later, after everything was ready, Shen Chao led the team back to the crossing area again. At this time, the crossing area has changed greatly, and several large circles of thick reinforced concrete + ultra-thick steel plates are surrounded by a large white cross representing the center.
Shen Chao's arrangement was simple. If he encounters a danger in the world of Mass Effect that he can't solve on his own. Then he can quickly create a space-time portal and travel back from the other side.
If his enemies are chasing after him through the Space-Time Gate, a few of his teammates who are hiding behind cover can also block them with their weapons.
"Equipment Inspection" In the crossing area, Shen Chao once again started the routine inspection before the crossing, but this time he didn't put on armor or anything. I just put on a Star Alliance Navy uniform and brought two large boxes.
One of the two chests contained gold, and the other contained his weapons and armor. After she crossed back, there shouldn't be a need to fight for the time being, so he didn't put the armor on his body.
In stark contrast to him, his teammates are all heavily armed. Armor and weapons are available. Eight drones hovered in the air, ready to receive orders from Custer. Nothing survived such a fire blockade.
: "Correct, all weapon systems are ...... normal" Karst is in charge of checking the status of the drone.
"Alright, I'm ready to go. Get ready to answer my ......" Shen Chao saw that everyone was ready. The crossing began. With such a strong backing as he is now, he doesn't have to worry about his safety when he comes back this time.
After a period of familiar preparations, Shen Chaoshun appeared in the room of the Citadel Hotel where he had left last time, and there was no change from the last time he left. The furnishings in the room have not changed.
Shen Chao checked the entire hotel room again and found no abnormality. So he took his two suitcases, grabbed his weapons and left the hotel room.
After leaving the hotel, Shen Chao looked at the time. There is no distinction between day and night in the castle, so you can only guess the time through a guò timer. This is the Milky Way government. The center of economy and culture is in motion and developing all the time......
He continued to browse the massive space station, in a rare metal buying shop in the Guard. He exchanged some gold again, bringing the funds in his account back to the level of 1 million star coins.
After doing this, Shen Chao found the place he wanted to go on a public service platform, checked his weapon and shield generator again, and then got into a taxi and rushed towards the end of the guard area. …,
Since there are no worries, you can escape back to your plane at any time. He could come back this time to express himself as much as possible, preferably in the short term, to earn the title of Ghost of the Citadel, in order to lay the foundation for his future development in this world.
And in order to do that, he needs something compelling. Now. There is no better means to meet this condition than to help Shepard pursue Salen.
However, what he had to do now was not to rush back to Normandy, as Shepard was still 10 hours away from being summoned to the Citadel Council's hearing on the attack on Eden.
And Shen Chao already knew the outcome of this hearing, although due to his participation, the current progress of things is a little different from the plot in the game, but one thing is certain. Saren will not be convicted.
Although there are several eyewitnesses who have witnessed him leading a large number of Jace's attacks on Eden Primary, Nerus is still unconscious. The best diagnosis given by the doctor was that there was hope that he would regain his sanity in a week.
Without the testimony of this "own" ghost, the evidence that Starlink was able to provide was not enough to convince the council. Let them believe in the fact that their legendary ghost has defected.
On the face of it, this is not a good thing. At least it is not a good thing for the humans of this plane, but for Shen Chao, this is indeed a great opportunity, before the hearing begins, he still has a lot of time to collect evidence, and then strive to get the attention and affirmation of the council.
Speaking of which, when Saren attacked again, there was no shortage of evidence left. However, Shen Chao naturally won't take the time to investigate those fragmentary clues, a perfect clue has been given in the game plot, he just needs to follow the investigation.
After 2 minutes in the carriage of the Citadel's autotaxi, he arrived at a clinic just 5 kilometers away from its original location.
There are 400,000 fully automated flying taxis in the Citadel, and as long as the passenger announces their destination on the Citadel and pays the fare with the Star Coins in their account, the VI on board will automatically fly the passenger to the destination.
After getting out of the car, Shen Chao turned on the universal tool and looked at the nearby map. The automated taxi dropped him off at the nearest taxi stop. His destination was already close.
Walking through the fairly wide street nearby, Shen Chao came to a clinic. After carefully checking the name of the clinic and confirming that it was correct, he came to the door and rang the doorbell.
After half a minute, the automatic door was opened, and Shen Chao also walked in. He was greeted by a young humanoid woman dressed in a doctor's uniform.
"Hello, do you need anything?" She looked a little nervous, and it looked like Shen Chao shouldn't be the first to come to her. Maybe Salen's mercenaries had come over to terrorize her.
"Dr. Michelle? Shen Chao first confirmed her identity. Although it looks a little similar to the characters in the game, it still feels very different, and the woman in front of me still looks a little different from the image in the game. Shen Chao needs to be confirmed.
"I am, you are?" Dr. Michelle's strong French English made Shen Chao feel that it was not as comfortable as translating directly with a universal tool.
"Shen Chao, Star Alliance Navy. I served on the Normandy. Just arrived from the main star of Eden...... Shen Chao took out his documents and introduced his official origin.
"Do you need anything, corporal?" When Dr. Michelle heard his words, his expression was visibly fluctuating.
"Yes, I do need your help, doctor. My direct commander, Lieutenant Colonel Shepard, asked me to assist her in investigating information about Salen's attack on Eden Primary, and one of the clues I just found mentions that you might have relevant information? ”…,
Shen Chao said in the name of Shepard that his rank in the Star Alliance was too low after all, and if he didn't get involved with Shepard, his own words were really not convincing enough.
"No, I think you misunderstood, corporal, I don't know what Saren ......" Doctor Michelle heard this and hurriedly said, if Shen Chao didn't know the plot, maybe he would believe her words.
"Doctor, I trust the information provided by my informant. He mentioned that there was a quarian who showed up at your clinic a few days ago and I need to find her. Shen Chao fabricated an information source for himself out of thin air and began to talk nonsense.
"But I really ......" Dr. Michelle's expression began to look a little unnatural, clearly hiding something.
"Doctor, tens of thousands of humans have been killed by Salen's Jace army on Eden Lord, and if we can't prove Salen's crimes, God knows how many more will die at his hands. If you have any information, please be sure to let us know......"
Shen Chao could see that the other party would not directly tell him the information he needed, and he couldn't force the other party to open his mouth at this time, so he began to move out the banner of human righteousness.
"I don't know where she is now, but she just came a few hours ago and I checked her wounds. She was supposed to be at the XX Hotel first...... "Eventually, as if persuaded by him, Dr. Michelle gave an address on the other cantilevered arm of the Citadel.
"Thank you, doctor, I will go to her immediately" Shen Chao quickly left the clinic when he heard this.
After leaving the door of the clinic, he didn't walk away immediately, when he was in the clinic just now, Shen Chao had a strange feeling, he felt that Dr. Michelle was not the only one in the clinic.
It was strange to say, but Shen Chao's senses were very sensitive at the moment, and he heard some sounds that he wasn't sure about, much like the breathing of a person with a respirator. It must have come from behind one of the cupboards in the clinic.
Therefore, Shen Chao, who left the clinic, was going to wait here for a while to see if anyone would come out of the clinic. Hiding his figure on a nearby street corner, he began to wait.
As a result, just a few minutes after he came out, the door of the clinic opened again, and a female quarian in a dark blue full-body space suit ran out of the clinic door. (To be continued.)
