126 Propulsion

Shepard's eight-member team watched the Legion and Shepard operate on the server terminal, and then saw the two of them fall to the ground at the same time as if they had made an appointment, Shepard was unconscious wearing a holographic helmet, and the Legion also fell to the ground and fell into convulsions.

"Shepard!" Ashley and Liara took two steps forward, a little overwhelmed by the consequences of moving around with their holographic helmets attached.

In a moment of hesitation, Garras and Javik, who were guarding outside, retreated: "Damn, we're stuck here!"

"No...... Yes...... Move. Just as they hesitated, the Legion woke up.

"What happened to Shepard?, geth?" asked Tali, tugging at the Legion.

Shepard...... In battle, waiting for him. The Legion said firmly.

"Fighting?"

They stared worriedly at the door, when suddenly Shepard slammed to his feet, and the team took off Shepard's helmet, lifted Shepard's eyelids, and tossed for a few seconds before patting his heart: "Commander, are you okay?"

"Ahem. Shepard coughed a few times, and looked at the two girls beside him with bloodshot eyes, and the severely frightened mind felt a little better.

He gasped heavily, looked at his comrades who were surrounding him with concern, and excitedly grabbed Garas's powerful hand: "Thank you, brothers. ”

"Don't thank us, Commander. ”

"No, you gave me strength. Shepard said sincerely, turning back to the Legion: "Legion, I will definitely save you, save the geth." ”

"We trust you, Shepard. The Legion said in a synthesized voice.

Shepard stood up, glanced around the stationary geth server, and shouted "Shirakawa! I've passed your test, and you should keep your word!"

Airplanes~

With the sound of a huge mechanical opening and closing, the ceiling above everyone's heads and the wall in front of them suddenly opened on two sides, and this storage room was connected to a hall, this hall was wide and bright, on both sides of the metal floor, there were neatly arranged infantry, near the interior were eight VI commanders, and on the platform at the end sat the boy who made Shepard feel an inexplicable fear, his image was exactly the same as in the virtual space, he stared at Shepard and his party calmly, and everyone suddenly felt a strange pressure.

"I'm going to make good on my promise, I'll give you a transport ship and leave with these servers. Between the guards, Bai He smiled.

"Wait, you've taken over the geth's fleet!" said Shepard.

"That's my trophy. Shirakawa smiled, "Commander Shepard, you don't think it's reasonable to convince a victor to hand over the spoils. ”

"You are the aggressor. ”

"Which civilization has I invaded that is registered with the Star Federation or recognized by the Star Federation's laws?" Bai He asked.

"You-" Sheppad said.

"We need engineering ships, not warehouses. The Legion said, "You are the agent of the White Behemoth?" the geth may recognize your victory, but please also know that they can do anything if they lose hope of survival. ”

"Mr. Shepard, is this a declaration that the geth is about to throw himself at the Reaper?" Shirakawa turned to Shepard.

Shepard frowned: "Mr. Shirakawa, you just promised that you could help us. ”

"Yes, I can help you sweep away the stuff on Lenochy. White River yawned, "My fleet plus the Quarian fleet is just enough, I know that guy, that thing can't make a pollution that threatens the entire galaxy - only temporarily, of course, but if you let him completely pollute the minds of those reapers, then it's a big problem; are you sure you want to exchange my help for something else?"

"This ......" Shepard was sweating profusely, and seemed to be caught in a battle between heaven and man.

"I can show you the way. Shirakawa suddenly laughed, and he pointed to Tali the Quarian on the other side, "Why don't you convince the Quarians to retake the geth?"

"This?!" Shepard and Tali were dumbfounded at the same time, and the Legion's flashlight head murmured: "This...... Author. ”

"Or is it that the ideas you showed in the test are still some lies that are inconsistent with your words and deeds?" Shirakawa raised his head and smiled, "Shepard, prove it to me. ”

"I'll prove it!" Shepard gritted his teeth, turned around and waved his hand: "Load the things onto the transport ship, let's go!"

......

"He's the white beast?" Back on the boat, everyone was stunned to hear Shepard's account.

"It's no surprise. Shepard turned to Tully, "Tully, are the Quarians willing to reconcile with the geth?"

Tali was silent, her eyes behind the shield staring silently at Shepard.

Shepard wasn't discouraged, just slightly disappointed.

"Shepard, in fact, the geth situation is not so bad, there are several geth space stations in the center of the galaxy, if you put us there, soon the geth can regain combat effectiveness, of course, only ground forces. "There are still some scattered warships controlled by the exiles on the periphery, but they add up to three hundred, and the geth don't have the resources to build more fleets." ”

"Good. Shepard nodded.

"Shepard!" Tully shouted.

Shepard pressed Tali's shoulder: "Tully, that white beast is still watching us, you see, his fleet is following behind, and if I can't prove my philosophy to him, then Lenoch's predicament can't be solved." ”

"Do we have to listen to the culprit?" said Tali, dissatisfied.

"He holds the fleet in his hands. Shepard realistically said, "We need to unite all our forces to deal with the catastrophe." ”

"But Shepard. Garras stepped forward, "Can that creature be trusted? We don't even know where he came from or what his purpose is." ”

"What do you think?" asked Shepard.

"We should send an emissary to communicate with him, and we must find out his purpose before we can determine the course of action against him. Liara the Asari said, "I think I can go." ”

Shepard looked at Liara for a moment, and agreed with the idea with a complicated expression.

......

Bai He looked at the Asari girl sent by Shepard and was in a very happy mood, although this famous girl race in Mass Effect 3 did not quite match his aesthetics, but it was also an excellent thing to be able to have one more living creature in this boat in a group of cold artificial intelligence.

He could guess the purpose of Shepard's party with his toes, if he couldn't know his origin and purpose, they might not be able to eat and sleep, after all, he was so weird and powerful, he could release a crazy virus, a terrible thing that defied the sky, and he could silently swallow a powerful civilization like Geth, and his danger level would have been on the red alert if it was in peacetime, and he might have been attacked as a boss.

Although there was a certain element of cunning in it, Shirakawa knew that Shepard would not be so naΓ―ve, and even if he was naΓ―ve, his subordinates and the cunning bureaucrats of the Star Alliance would not be so naΓ―ve.

Bai He himself doesn't care, there is nothing he can't talk about except for the passage artifact, his true origin will only be taken as a joke by others, and the disguise is very simple - in the galaxy, the area controlled by the Citadel Council is only connected by a few mass repeaters. It's less than five percent of the total size of the Milky Way, and there are too many advanced intelligent civilizations that don't exist in the world for various reasons, and the Leviathan, which created the Reaper tens of millions of years ago, still has some individuals lingering somewhere in the galaxy in this era.

Even for the purpose of Reaper technology, it is not impossible to take it out - it may be better to say it, there are many organizations in the galaxy that covet Reaper technology, and there is not one more of them.

"You come from a special civilization, so this human body on Earth is not what you really look like?" Liara asked curiously, "Is this really strange, the Legion said that your image is a giant beast more than eight meters long, is that what you really look like?"

"Of course not. Shirakawa denied that he didn't want to be horrified here, and that the technology to fold matter to that level didn't exist in Mass Effect: "That's just my external biochemical armor, and my true image is not much like yours." ”

As he spoke, his face slightly distorted, as if the disguised image had dissipated, his ears sharpened, fine scales grew underneath, and his pupils became vertical: "Look, this is the image of our race. ”

"I see. Liara suddenly, secretly observing the characteristics of Baihe, and thinking that Baihe was an intelligent evolved from some kind of lizard-like creature: "You can change your appearance?"

"Very simple pigment changes and skin layer simulation. Shirakawa changed and changed into Liara's appearance again: "But if you let me become Prosian or Serarius, I'm afraid I can't do anything." ”

"What a handy ability. You just said you were interested in the Reaper?" asked Liara.

"Yes, my race escaped from the Reaper 200,000 years ago to the Dark Star Domain, which is inaccessible to the Mass Repeater, and the purpose of my expedition is to witness this harvest. "This is also something we do every 50,000 years, but it seems that this time I saw it...... Maybe it will be different, that commander, and I see a little bit of the possibility of victory. ”

'Of course, we have to win, but first we have to settle the matter of Lenochy. Liara asked curiously, "We've always been skeptical, Mr. Bai, do you really need Reaper's technology? That chaos virus, in some way...... It's enough to fight the Reaper. ”

"As you can see, I can't control it. Bai He spread his hands: "But to clear it~ I'm still a little sure." ”

Liara nodded suspiciously, her universal tool suddenly received a signal, she glanced down at the email, looked up and said, "Mr. Bai, the attack has begun. ”

......

"Unable to prove the origin of the truth, not to distinguish the true from the false explanation, Shepard, I'm afraid we have to be more wary of this guy. On board the Normandy, Garrus received a warning from Liara and spoke to Shepard.

"At least one thing is relatively certain, he can help us against the Reaper. ”

"What if he's a traitor sent by the Reapers? Garras frowned.

"Listen to Garas, in the coalition we have formed, any army can fight back, and the reaper's edifying power is everywhere. Shepard slapped the table and said with a serious expression: "That's why we need to cherish every possible help, didn't those deep-sea Leviathans also promise to help us?

"I hope you're not wrong, Shepard, and I reserve my opinion for now. Garras glanced at the time: "The battle has begun, Shepard." ”

......

The Quarians launched a general attack with the fleet of the White River, and the peacekeepers sent by the Star Alliance also joined the battle, and the three huge warbands combined to form a firepower encirclement network that was enough to completely surround the Lenoch, and with the strong numerical superiority, the Source of Chaos tried to use the virus to attack, but the firewall provided by the geth and the White River made it useless. Under a final general attack, the source of chaos collapsed, leaving only two scarred Tainted Reapers to flee, and the rest annihilated.

The Quarians who had reclaimed their home planet were excited, and although the biochemical monsters created by the Source of Chaos were still wreaking havoc on the planet's surface, it didn't diminish their joy in the slightest.

The Children of the Plane lived up to their reputation, and through a rescue operation, Shepard's team managed to rescue a besieged Star Federation Marshal, and under his control, the Quarians actually reluctantly reached an agreement with the Geths. Of course, Shepard is not stupid, he knows that this kind of peace will not last long without equal forces, he has lit up the geth engineering bases on the space station and satellites, and the rescued Star Federation Marshal has provided the geth with a fleet, so that the geth barely has some strength, although compared to the strength of the geth in the canon of Mass Effect, these strengths are less than one-tenth of what they should be, but this fragile balance is still formed.

While Bai He was waiting for the plot to advance, an uninvited guest suddenly found Bai He through the communication radio, this human who claimed to be the vice admiral of the Star Federation was full of righteousness and said nonsense that was completely meaningless in Bai He's eyes, and he shook his lips and tried to convince Bai He that handing over the control of the fleet to the Star Federation was the most correct choice, and that Bai He should obey the righteousness and contact his people to come out of the darkness and fight the Reaper together, instead of watching from the dark star zone.

Shirakawa turned off the comms as Liara watched, and two days later, a not-so-good news came from Shepard.
