Chapter 405: Burning and Killing the Looting Regiment
A bug, I know it sounds like a hunt, but near the energy coil of our Sniper Cannon, a bug was found.
"It's like a mechanical soldier with a carbon-based skin, its vitality is terrifying, the last cell of this thing lasted for nearly thirty seconds under the deadly ghost energy radiation before it was completely inactive, I have never seen a carbon-based life being born with such physical qualities." These are Tavel's exact words.
Do you still remember the basic principles of the Sniper Cannon?
This nonsense out-of-specification weapon, its main energy generator is two twin neutron stars on the verge of a critical point, a pair of good friends who are crazy in the universe to release gamma-ray bursts outward, how terrifying the energy they burst out in the leaky * point dazzle dance can be imagined, and this is only one of the initial energy sources of the sniper cannon, not to mention that it is also equipped with a large number of amplification devices and a ghost energy well with a total output of enough to ignite a star, such a terrifying thing, even if countless layers of solid barriers are added, The shred of energy it leaked from its core would be enough to wipe out any carbon-based creatures, let alone where the Sniper Cannon would be mounted: it was outer space
But it was in this environment that Tavel found a carbon-based bug outside the energy coil of the Sniper Cannon
As soon as I heard the news, my first reaction was that Tavel was joking, a bug that can travel in space in the flesh and hold on to the ghost ray storm for half a minute, do you think that bug is called Long Aotian?
But I soon denied the doubts in my heart, if I want to say who we are the most jokeable people, it is none other than Tavel, as the chief researcher of the Empire, Tavel's rigor has almost reached the point of a headache, and when it comes to what she makes, her seriousness is even more exaggerated than that of Scorpion Vega.
Knowing that something was wrong, we asked Tavel to send the bug she found to the Shadow Base's scientific research center using the chrono device that afternoon, and even she herself put aside her research work for a while and came to report to us about the creature in person.
It was a strange life that looked like a combination of centipedes and praying mantis magnified countless times, its entire body was flattened, about two meters high, and its body length was nearly seven meters, and its whole body was a deep purple-brown color, covered with sharp barbs, and the plural two rows of multi-legged ones had the characteristics of arthropods, and the joints also had sharp bone blades, and its front half should be the head, but it did not have the necessary mouthparts, only a pair of pincer-like chelicerae that were more than two meters long and full of sharp serrations, Looking at the hideous shape, I can cramp for the person caught in it, and the pair of killer-like pincers have been shown to contain at least eleven highly permeable toxins that can break down the cell walls of most carbon-based life.
The whole body is full of weapons, the degree of armament is outrageous, not to mention how powerful it is to fight, just this cloth, rolling in the crowd, it is a mourning field
"We found this thing when we were inspecting the third decay coil of the Sniper Star Cannon, and it was completely dead at that time, but the recording equipment near the coil showed how long it had been there, thirty seconds, in terms of spectral resistance alone, this achievement is almost equivalent to an elite-level Xiling soldier, with the body of a carbon-based creature to withstand that level of energy radiation, more than three seconds should be a miracle."
Tavel's tone carried the burning desire of a scientist to study when he saw something incomprehensible, and I believe that if it hadn't been for the sake of his superiors first, this super-vigorous bug would have become a slice sample in the laboratory.
"Speaking of which, if you want to talk about the resistance to ghost energy radiation, don't I have nothing to do?"
"Your Majesty the Emperor, you have been genetically strengthened by a specific purpose, and your ability also determines that no harmful energy can cause any harm to you," Tavel pushed his glasses, "But this creature, it is completely dependent on its own physical strength to achieve the miracle of surviving outside the energy coil for so long, I have never seen a similar situation, although the DNA of carbon-based creatures is magical, there are inevitably a large number of loopholes in it, and the genetics of this sample are very unusual, It has no traces of being trimmed, but there are almost no genetic defects, this creature ...... It was perfect......"
Listening to Tavel's admiration, I could only roll my eyes: there is a huge difference in the aesthetics of scientists and ordinary people.
However, I also know that the "perfection" that the other side refers to is genetically speaking, no matter how strange this thing looks, it can evolve itself to survive in space, and even resist thirty seconds of out-of-specification ghost energy radiation, which is enough to make Tavel amazed.
"How did it get into the Sniper Cannon?" This is the question I was curious about, and now it seems that the existence of this bug should be the reason why Tavel reported to me that there was a "little problem" with the sniper cannon, "You didn't check if the parts were clean when you installed it?" β
"I'm very sorry, my majesty," Tavel immediately showed a look of shame, "but the last step in assembling the Sniper Cannon is to sink it into the preset spatial folds in its entirety, which will cause a considerable area of space around it to collapse, and there is a very small chance that it will teleport material from random coordinates within a few light years to the vicinity of the collapse point, I am afraid that it was at that moment that our scanning equipment missed this thing, after all...... Such inferior beings have always been set by us as non-threatening targets. β
Well, Tavel, congratulations, you managed to knock me out with a bunch of jargon.
As we circled around the strange and curious creature, we each pondered, and Sandora curiously leaned up and poked one of the big bug's chelicera.
Hey girl, you can't eat this
Luckily, my Sandora's recipe wasn't so frighteningly widespread, and she just looked at each other curiously for a moment, then suddenly raised her head: "Tavel, does this thing have a nervous system?" β
"Of course, my majesty, its nervous system is very complete and efficient."
"So, a little more complicated - does it have something to think about?"
Tavel hesitated for a moment, then pointed to the bug's abdomen: "We found its nerve entanglement point in this location, where a large number of neurons are tangled with each other, but we don't know much about the way carbon-based creatures sapient, and we are not sure if that is its thinking organ." β
"Well," Sandora stepped back, curling her finger against her chin, "and sure enough, as I had guessed. β
"Sandora, what did you find?"
I saw the other person's thoughtful look and couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Ah Jun, haven't you noticed the unreasonable form of this thing?"
I shrugged: "In my opinion, there is nothing reasonable about this guy." β
Sandora sighed when she heard this, and her expression was defeated by you: "Okay, I mean, although this thing has a strong vitality, and it seems to be very powerful, and it is physically invulnerable, but as a creature, its body structure is too deformed......"
"With a nervous system and such a large size, but without the ability to think, it is full of offensive bone blades, but it doesn't even have feeding organs, I don't believe that such a strong guy relies on photosynthesis to survive - I suspect that it is just a one-time weapon bred by a certain race for combat, so as long as it can fight, it is no problem if its survivability is scum."
Asa had been looking at the huge insect in front of her with great interest that was placed on the experimental table, this girl's gifted head did not have the concept of ordinary girls being afraid of insects, just when Sandora instilled in me how important the "mouth" is as a qualified creature, the feeding organ, Asalight suddenly stepped forward a few steps, and then reached out and pressed it on the carapace of the book.
"The sands of time come and go...... Ahh
"Hey" I dragged Qianqian back, why is this girl's curiosity so big
However, the shallow ability has played a role at this moment, the huge insect body shell was quickly covered with a dull halo, the dark purple-brown body surface gradually turned purple, and it also appeared more shiny, due to the huge amount of ghost energy radiation distorted and deformed a few shriveled arthrops gradually plumped, back to their original shape, with this series of changes, the insect's body also trembled rapidly, and there was a low friction sound in the body.
Vega, who was serving as a guard on the side, immediately drew his twin knives and instantly transformed into an armored scorpion form, I have to be fortunate that Sister Pandora is not here, otherwise the two little guys will be greeted by naval guns at this time.
It was only a matter of seconds, and Asa used time to turn back and resurrect the giant bug, which staggered to its feet and turned around towards us.
"Kara-" There was a clashing sound of exoskeletons, and the newly resurrected insect actually pounced on this side without hesitation, and the huge chelicera that opened in anger flashed with a highly poisonous green light, making people have no doubt about the lethality of this thing.
The silver-white halo flashed, and the insects that came from the sky were eerily static in mid-air, and then slowly landed in batches of thirty thousand within a radius of dozens of meters.
A group of Imperial Leaders shielded themselves with energy shields against the rain of blood, and watched a reckless scorpion commander in a brutal manner.
"I'm so sorry, sir."
Vega neatly put away the long knife and bowed her head to us and apologized.
You idiot, can you stop being so disgusting next time?
"Sandora, what's wrong?"
I noticed that since the insect was resurrected just now, Sandora had a rather solemn expression and couldn't help but ask with concern.
The golden halo in Sandora's eyes flowed, and it took a long time to regain its blue color: "A very dangerous race, the will is full of pure desire to destroy, the only purpose of its existence is to fight, to destroy the enemy, to open up interests for the whole race, for the evolution of the whole race, they are attacking all the lives they can find without reason and choice, and worse, just now it may have sent a distress signal to its own race...... This species must be eradicated."
There was no doubt that Sandora had intercepted the creature's desire to destroy.
"If the warriors of their race were of this level, it would be an easy war," Vega briefly assessed the enemy she had just killed, "a guy who is good for nothing but vitality." β
Basically, without much discussion, we decided on a war against this strange species.
Obviously, we don't like bugs β not even the shallow guy who can keep caterpillars as pets.
So, my leisurely vacation is over again? The fragments of the star ring have just been leveled, is the next one a cosmic alien?
Somewhere, Lilina heard the news that the Imperial Army was about to declare war on a certain race, and that night she found us, who were dispatching troops in the Shadow City Command Center, and handed us a handful of green seeds.
"This is the seed of the 'Evil of Life' on the seventh branch of the Tree of the World," Lilina said with a very serious expression when she handed this thing to us, not at all like the usual black-bellied and venomous guy, "Goddess-sama can't participate in this operation. β
Puzzled, I took the seeds that Lilina had brought, these little green particles were rather strange, as if they had no substance, encased in layers of halos, and felt like a warm light in my hand, but strangely weighty, according to the occult knowledge that Alaya had made up for me, these things were the conceptualized beings of legend: each one was enough to make even the most learned alchemist exhaust his entire life to imitate half of it.
"What does this mean? Little things are going to retake the exam again? β
Lilina, who still had a solemn expression just now, revealed her true form in the next second, and shouted with her teeth and claws: "It's too rude to insult the goddess in front of the priest."
Me: "......"
"The race you are going to attack is the aboriginal of this world," Lilina said angrily, "that is, the people of the goddess, although they are indeed dangerous species, but as the governing god of the world, the goddess cannot slaughter the people with her own hands until the other party violates the final dogma, and handing over these seeds to you is the only loophole she can exploit, and she has to pass it on through my hands, and as the chief priestess of the goddess of life, I'll be with you as the watchdog for this race war, but don't worry, I'm here to help with the fightβthe goddess can just say she doesn't know anything. β
Me: "......"
Has that Clankling guy taken his exploits for granted? Hurry up and arrest this derelict guy from the Divine Realm
When she saw the Admiral of the Imperial, which was at anchor in the Chrono Dockyard, Lilina almost broke her neck: "Whoa...... Boss, this thing is spectacular, is this a wall? β
Indeed, a giant battleship of hundreds of kilometers looks like a wall when viewed from the front: you can only see a single plate of armor as far as you can see, and I dare say that Lilina is magnificent, but she doesn't even know what shape this thing is.
After such a long period of accumulation, the number of our troops has actually reached a heinous point, according to Pandora, it is possible to wage war against twenty planets with level 3 civilizations in the star system at the same time and easily win, this huge fleet uses space technology to overlap each other in the folds of space, even then they are enough to make the entire Earth-Moon system densely filled with the Great Killers of the Xiling, This operation can be said to be the first time that our violent gang has waged war against an alien race, and everyone, including me, seems to be excited, and as a result, the spring of Pandora and Viska has arrived.
In order not to cause panic among the earthlings, Tavel found a relatively stable asteroid belt outside the solar system and established a temporary space portal, which took the entire imperial fleet nearly three days to complete, and then according to Sandora's suggestion, we left here twenty experienced Xiling hosts and three rapid expansion bases, and used the cover of the asteroid belt to carry out military expansion.
In order to destroy a swarm of bugs, Lilina named our operation: The Largest Evil Expedition to Burn and Kill Looting Gangs in History.
She is the self-proclaimed Horror Demon King No. 2......
I think this girl is purely too excited, just as excited as the self-proclaimed horror demon No. 1.
"The Imperial fleet has been assembled, and the command links of the 1st to 7th Army Corps have passed the self-inspection, and the commanders of the fleets are requested to report the situation."
The mechanical synthesis of female voices resounded in every flagship of the vast fleet and on the bridge of the "Imperial Admiral" in which we were located, and the mood of a group of imperial leaders was stirred.
"The First Legion reports that everything is normal in the fleet, and all ships can enter the Chrono Jump at any time"
"The Second Army reports that everything is fine with the fleet......"
"The Third Legion Report Readers Don't Allow Word Count"
I nodded: "The whole army is leaving"
Next to him, Qianqian and Lilina, the pair of terrifying demon kings who finally had the same smell, immediately joined in the fun: "Long live the charge, our slogan is to grab food, money, and land"
Following the chain of command of the Imperial Fleet, which had not had time to close, the slogans of the two big and small madmen spread throughout the entire legion on the spot...... You two make me feel embarrassed
With the momentary trance of the time and space jump, the scene in front of us has been turned upside down.
A strange celestial area, with asteroids floating everywhere outside the battleship, not the gray meteorites on the outer reaches of the solar system, but a large number of asteroids with a certain orange-red sheen, looking at these things, I felt a sense of familiarity for no reason.
Dare to directly set the coordinates of the space-time jump into the asteroid group, it is estimated that the Xiling people have the ability to do so, right?
Looking at the meteorite group that Tintin was hitting the flagship shield, I tried to hypnotize myself that it was absolutely impossible for Tavir to choose the wrong coordinates, but in the next second, our honest female scientist sent a message from the rear: "I'm very sorry, my majesty, I just reversed the space coordinates recorded in the sniper cannon, I thought that the fleet would appear outside the atmosphere of a certain planet, but I didn't expect that bug to live in the asteroid belt." β
(Continue to ask for tickets today, ah, it's finally the end of the month...... οΌ
