Chapter 767: Contrast

The more Su Hao looked at it, the more frightened he felt.

The scenes described in the text, from the discovery of the Tyranid swarm to the subsequent all-round attack, are similar to the viral storms that have occurred on Earth. The only difference is that the Viral Storm is based on the parasitic nature of the humans on Earth, while here, in the third stage of the world, the attack of the Tyranid swarm is entirely aimed at devouring and destroying it.

Of course, whether it is a virus or a bug, it is to get enough nutrition and enough material basis for the reproduction of one's own race.

If we put aside the regional distinction between the earth and the third stage world, Su Hao has every reason to think that this is the most detailed report of a survivor who lived in a war-torn period, experienced it firsthand, and witnessed death.

Yes, I myself once wrote something similar. That was still in the early days of the virus outbreak, in Kunming City, the zombie observation report submitted to Wang Qinian, president of the Academy of Sciences.

The fifth part of the text:

Inspector Emir's superior foresight allowed the Ichar-IV space field to receive early warning, allowing for a comprehensive response before the Tyranid swarm invaded in full. This is also the only and biggest highlight of the Imperial Military Department in the "Xudra" swarm battle. Although a bloody battle broke out in the Ichal IV space, in terms of the overall outcome, at least we can judge the general direction of the Tyranid Swarm troops, and thus allow more people in the Itchar IV space to survive.

As a result of the previous campaign to suppress the rebels, the White Brand Legion was able to construct a series of strong defensive lines in the Ichal IV space field. The Imperial Warriors, led by their valiant Legion Commanders, have deployed a large number of forces to attack the lair base that the Xenomorph Swarm has built in Ichal IV. Among them, it also includes many elite fighters who stand out in the Makrig space defense battle. They fought valiantly there, a series of fierce white-knuckle battles that lasted intermittently for almost a year. After that, the surviving soldiers of the Markrig space were transferred to the Itsar IV. Even this well-prepared space field has paid a very heavy price in the war - the Imperial troops and armed civilians stationed here have suffered heavy casualties, and the entire space field has become a terrifying morgue full of destruction and death.

Although the main force of the hive force "Xudra" has been defeated by two reinforcements from the Itsar IV space and the Overworld. However, there are already hundreds of spatial realms of various sizes that have been swept away by the overwhelming number of insects. All the main corps and Wehrmacht forces involved in the battle suffered heavy losses. Of particular note are the troops sent by the "Emperor's Scythe" legion, as well as the "Lamentation Warband". None of them survived the battle with the bugs, with less than a company of warriors surviving. Although the main Zerg forces of "Xudra" have been dispersed, and the situation in the entire space domain has temporarily stabilized, there are still a considerable number of small Zerg plundering forces that have broken away from the main force and continue to operate. This situation has been going on for a long time, and the space field has had to organize a large number of personnel to carry out repeated searches of their respective jurisdictions for five years. They were really scared, lest there be something missing, and at some point in the future, there would be a terrible thing about a remnant bug evolving into a huge swarm.

The Tyranid swarm, which had been defeated in the Atlas IV Spatial Realm, had already left that space and collapsed towards the depths of the Void. These small defeated units are gradually fleeing to the defense area where the remnants of the main force of "Xudra" are located. If there was any difference between these scattered small Zerg forces and the previous attacks, it could only be said that they were more dangerous and became a threat to the Empire that could not be ignored. For these fugitives are always attacking in the lines of their retreat, and sweeping away the empty imperial spaces that are far from the battle lines, unprepared for war, and defended. This kind of scattered and plundering troops usually consist of only a hundred sporangia. But even so, it is more than enough to raze those non-critical space worlds that are isolated, have no heavy troops to defend, and lack adequate protective measures.

We don't know if the dark world has suffered this fate as we do. But one thing is certain: during the time when the "Xudra" swarm swarmed, the dark world was also chaotic. Our intelligence officers were unable to deliver more information in a timely manner. However, according to the information obtained since then, the Tyranid swarm also regards the dark creatures as enemies. Bugs are not picky when it comes to the nature of their food. They eat us, and they like to eat more dark creatures.

The pursuit of these scattered swarms stretched the battle line against the remnants of the main force of "Xudra" longer and longer. At that time, the empire had urgently mobilized the forces that a qiē was able to send. And these fleeing attackers gradually recovered their vitality through the spoils of war obtained from the spatial realms that were swallowed by them. Their reproductive process is so dirty and vile, there are no normal sex differences, as long as there are genes and vectors, plus a sufficient amount of nutrient substrates, they can always recover quickly in a short time, no matter how heavy they are lost in war. Then, make a comeback again.

For the Empire, it is not in vain to block the attack of the remnants of the "Xudra" swarm. They have learned how to deal effectively with these opponents from outside the space. In several spatial domains, the main legion tactical team seized the opportunity to enter the unsuspecting brood of the brood while these alien creatures were still hibernating, and after obtaining a large amount of information about the Tyranid swarm and the most primitive biological samples, they used high-powered fire guns to kill thousands of xenomorphs who were still hibernating. The information obtained by these heroes will undoubtedly be a great help to the empire that is looking for a way to defeat the aliens.

Part 6:

The Supreme Council of the Empire, located in the Overworld, along with the Holy See and Inquisition, was greatly alarmed by the flood of reports of invasions. The top leaders of the empire at the time immediately convened a meeting to discuss countermeasures. Their conclusion was swift and simple: power must be taken to stop the continued invasion of the Zerg at any cost; The Zerg must be thoroughly studied until they are completely wiped out. According to the information analyzed by the Imperial Academy, the Supreme Judge had foreseen the Dark Ages. It was a dark force that had never been seen since the appearance of the space demon. It was an extremely powerful space devourer, and it had already targeted the overworld inhabited by humans. And so far, it has only shown a fraction of its true power. Now, under the orders of the Supreme Council, the huge warplanes are fully operational, and the entire imperial army has turned its goals to the space realm, preparing for the arrival of all-out war.

The only regret is that the emperor is still asleep.

Wen Jiàn adds, Gene Stealer: (Note: This part of the data comes from the Holy See)

Warning: They are very evil!

In all corners of the human empire, some kind of looming threat has been slowly developing for centuries. One space realm after another, known or unknown, especially one space realm once controlled by the Empire, is gradually falling into the hands of the rebels. They are not conquered by weak flesh or succumb to unclean desires, but by the genes they are born with, which have an unimaginable effect on them and control their minds. It seemed that the group of monsters, the gene stealers, were like seeds in the wind, casually drifting into a quiet, peaceful, and unsuspicious world in the spatial realm. As long as they can find a foothold among the unprepared masses, they will be ready to drive people against those who truly defend their interests. For the most part, this space field is destined for a tragic end. Because when the comprehensive defense of the space domain is greatly weakened, the greedy Tyranid leader of the genestealers will arrive in that unfortunate land, and after sweeping away all the organic matter, leaving us with a huge, desolate, dead rock.

The Genestealer Sect (which we can only classify as heretics due to the lack of clue about the number of Rebels, i.e., an evil sect that does not accept the orthodoxy of the Empire) usually has an army of Genestealers and their descendants.

As more and more residents become infected by genestealers, the sect will gradually take root in the local area. The cult forced them to be bound by it, and also tried to ensure that their future children and grandchildren would be forever bound by the sect because of the power of genes. Through the oviducts inside their whip-like tongues, each gene stealer can corrupt large numbers of inhabitants, permanently destroying the makeup of their genes. Relying on the collective consciousness of the Zerg, the brood is able to unite a group of people with the traces left by the gene stealers. Then, by virtue of this powerful psychic power, they, as parents, will be hypnotized to take care of their inhuman offspring without expressing any fear, fear, opposition, or other objection or behavior. After that, these new generation, mixed-race genestealers, will continue to infect others. Due to their genes that mix monster and human traits, the reproductive cycle of these people is significantly shorter than that of the average person, from pregnancy to maturity. The mission to infect as many people as possible is paramount. In this kind of task, the dangers that may occur to the host are consciously ignored.

For this group of guys, as long as there are more and more of the same kind, the other qiē are secondary.

The actual power of this cult group is in the hands of a small circle of leaders. The cult leaders direct their lackeys to occupy a region, a space, and even more dimensional worlds, with no regard for their lives or deaths. They are very cunning, and this is the real reason why they choose to lurk within the masses in a missionary way, continuing their activities as clergy. Under the guise of normal religious organizations, the cult leaders racked their brains to ensure that the following two goals could be achieved.

First, it is not affected by external conflicts, and it is getting more and more attention as a lackey. As long as they can thwart the Empire's purification efforts, these guys will not hesitate to send their followers to their deaths. They would say goodbye to the cannon fodder sent out, and sometimes symbolically participate in the battle. But, in reality, it is more important for them to ensure the survival of the privileged minority than anything else. Especially the Elder, the closest to human and most powerful in appearance. If the gene stealer or the elder (especially him, for whom it is very easy to hide in human society) can get away with it for a long time, the cult will survive again. For the Empire, this is the most troublesome point: if only one cultist escapes, the more powerful cult of genestealers will resurface within a few centuries.

Second, the Genestealer Elders possess a powerful psionic power. This psychic energy can be used to hypnotize and control one's own followers. This ability is partly the legacy left to him by his Tyranid master, and the other part comes from the flow of spiritual power of cultists in the collective consciousness. The purer the genestealer's bloodline, the stronger the spiritual link. Eventually, they can command large armies through guò nest sensing. The leaders of the cult will organize a large group of armed rebels, but they are nothing more than a group of ignorant and blind followers. The rebels were all ready to die for the so-called "cause", but they did not know that it was nothing more than an outright hoax. So much so that they don't know the true face of the group of leaders. The genestealers are only subordinate to their Zerg leaders. They infect others, sow chaos, protect seeds, and their actions are nothing more than serving the arrival of the Zerg.

The weapons and equipment used by the cultists were either stolen, bought on the black market, or simply homemade. As a result of this behavior, the variety of their armaments is chaotic. They usually have access to a wide variety of weapons and mechanical combat vehicles (obtained from renegade armies or government officials). However, there is often no way to save it. Because they simply don't have the ability to maintain these weapons properly. Most vehicles are limited in those that are easy to steal or relatively easy to craft. This group of cultists did not have many specialized military vehicles, so they had to rely on the more common ones. Attacks on arsenals, or a means of drawing high-ranking officials into cult groups, may occasionally acquire some rarer and more powerful weapons. However, such operations are costly, and most of them can only obtain some decommissioned armaments that are common, of ordinary power, and do not even pose a threat to regular soldiers.

Cultists must rely on self-made warfare machines. In this case, they converted many civilian vehicles into military vehicles. Cultists' luxury cars allow them to get around the city without revealing their true colors. And if you add some extra armor and convert this civilian vehicle into a lightly armored vehicle, it is also suitable for use in battle. Often, in the absence of any real military training or guiding ideology, cult members are ready to fight. They were nothing more than a rabble, and the cultists were either on horseback, motorcycles, or other miscellaneous vehicles. Most of the ground forces were armed with whatever weapons they could find or steal. This may sound ridiculous, but it works well in some remote areas and in areas where the main forces of the empire cannot fully control zhì.

If the cult has enough strength (and most of them are often engaged in armed combat at this point), they can send a signal that will attract a Zerg brood troop roaming the planets. From the leader of this puppet group to his followers, the cultists were thrown into a war of attrition. They will be driven to defeat the armies of a place or space to ensure their safety and development. Then, this battle between the cultists and the Imperial army made the signal even stronger. Eventually, signals such as "food is abundant here" will be as obvious as a beacon. When the Zerg arrived, it was time for the end of the qiē. The surviving cultists enter the brood unit and are then absorbed as nutrients. After the genes and organic matter inside the space have been collected, the space itself is abandoned. Even if the Zerg is defeated, most of this spatial realm has already been analyzed. Even if they are lucky enough to escape, they will be bombarded with virus bombs by the Empire to ensure that no genestealers survive.

They are such a tragic existence. What is particularly hateful is that the gene stealers have no awareness that they are being exploited. They even consider it a supreme honor to dedicate themselves to the Zerg leader. From their bodies to their brains, they have been completely polluted and have even lost their souls. It is no longer possible for them to be called human beings.

About Yukoa. Jacobs' contribution to the Zerg:

Yukoa. Jacobus was a missionary on the southern border of the empire, west of the city of Baka. The scope of his activities is centered on Baka City, and continues to expand to other space realms. By the age of fifty, he had already converted fifteen newly discovered space realm natives to the state religion of the Empire. In all these areas of space that can be inhabited by humans, but are sparsely populated, this is a very considerable achievement. In particular, he achieved greater success with Soracus 12, a semi-frozen space domain. After spending three years studying the local population in this space where the development of science and technology and society had reached the modern stage, he began to teach the teachings of the state religion to the local religion that was still very backward in terms of organization. to other space realms of the world.
