Project Blackstone itself does not have a specific goal in mind, and its main research mission is to study the physiology of astral spirits and insects in order to find effective ways to deal with these creatures. Although the Empire's higher-ups hoped that the project would produce weapons that could be quickly put on the battlefield, it did not produce any of the results that the Empire needed until the entire project was finally temporarily suspended due to supply issues.

Some of the Blackstone Project's research participants were forcibly kidnapped by Imperial Ghosts, including Dr. Talis Kogan, Ariel's mother.

“…… What if we assume that she has really safely researched the results and wants to make a deal with the Empire? ”

"She'll be eaten and wiped clean by the Empire, and then thrown away as a footcloth." A1 and Renault uttered this sentence almost in unison.

"First of all, she herself was the deputy of a colonial governor, and her status itself was not high. In such an capacity, perhaps it would be a very risky thing to talk to the imperial government in its own right. "Secondly, for the Empire, these research results are not unsalvable, and the Imperial Security Service can send Ghost Rangers to steal or even steal her research materials, and she will be almost completely passive in negotiations, and in the end, she may lose herself or even the entire colony." ”

But all of this is hypothetical, because she doesn't even know if her project will be successful or not. After Havenstar's communication with Hyperion was cut off, she completely lost all contact with the research facilities on Haven. The last news she learned was the completion of a new lab and the arrival of personnel sent by Sirius. After that, Haven Star was not heard from.

"Wait a minute, after talking about it for a long time, there is still no news about the psionic energy launcher......"

"Haven't you reacted yet?" Renault couldn't help but sigh, "That induction tower improvement project is the prototype of the psionic energy launcher. ”

"Huh?!"

"You didn't participate in the battle of Meinhof, and it's normal that you didn't expect it. At that time, there was an induction tower in the center of the main camp guarded by the Rangers. At that time, the viruses were not perfect, and infected people infected by the virus were killed by high-intensity ultraviolet light during the day, but they could survive at night. And every night, the entire Meinhof infected body frantically flocks to our main camp......"

“…… She put a psionic launcher in your camp??? ”

"Or rather, a weakened version of a psionic launcher." Matt Horner walked over and interjected, "Otherwise, I'm sure to attract the attention of wild insects from other planets." Perhaps this dispenser can only affect Alien units within the planet's radius...... Truth be told, this kind of induction tower does have its value. ”

Renaud glared at Matt, and he immediately shut his mouth.

"Then the infections on Haven now that are active during the day indicate ......"

"Hmm. Ariel also warns us that she doesn't know exactly what is in those labs right now...... She regretted working with Sirius......"

"What's the use of talking about that now? Now her people are suffering again, and a lot of unrelated forces are involved in a big fight. If it weren't for the boss, I would have been the first to hang her in front of the refugees in Haven......"

With the rapid rotation of ground forces, several flagged scientific research facilities were discovered by the A1 and A6 Marine Forces. However, these forces were soon attacked head-on by the forces of the unknown forces, and they became more and more convinced that the unknown human forces had come to rescue the experimental object.

As for the abandoned scientific research facility that wiped out the reconnaissance force, it was A1 who quickly rushed over with Lal's platoon. However, just as they were about to approach the coordinates of the abandoned scientific research facility, a sudden burst of fierce psionic energy burst out from the target point in an instant, with the target coordinates as the center of the circle, rapidly spreading out in all directions.

At this time, all psionic energy indicators and energy readings across the planet began to beat wildly, and all creatures with psionic energy also sensed this psionic coercion full of rage and death for the first time.

“…… This is ......" Yang Yi only felt that the spiritual energy in his body also became agitated, and he hurriedly relied on the method taught by Shantila to try to calm the restless spiritual energy.

And this instantaneous explosion almost made the entire space battlefield seem to be stunned.

“…… This feeling ...... "He finally soothed the restless spiritual energy in his body, and before he could recover his senses, the anxious voices of A1 and A6 sounded in the command network, which shook his head a little dizzy.

"Commander! It's a hybrid! We need to get out of here now! Immediately, immediately! ”

"Yes, Commander. We have to get out of here now, and if we don't, it may be really too late. A6's voice was also very serious at this time.

“…… Yes? His mind was a little confused, "What about the hybrid?" No matter how strong it is, it can't be stronger than an entire army, right? ”

"Of course a hybrid is not strong, what is strong is the force that will implicate it, Commander!" A1 explained at a high speed as he directed the troops to retreat, "The Hybrid is the Empire's highest-level classified project. Just like the Castana lab we ran to before. If this is the Empire's laboratory, it will definitely attract the Führer's main fleet to the end in person, and our current strength is simply not able to resist one more fleet! ”

"Moreover, in the current star zone, the Alien Insect Force led by the Queen of Blades is also looking for the Empire's secret laboratories everywhere, and before I came here to serve, there were already reports that many hybrid laboratories were destroyed by the Blade Queen's main swarm. She had two Leviathans here now, and the hybrid's psionic signal had definitely been passed to the Queen of Blades. If nothing else, she's probably already on her way with her main swarm by now, and there's no way we're going to be able to beat Queen of Blades and her main swarm now, Commander. ”

"And, if we can think of this, the unknown fleet that seems to be a UED must also want to think of it. If this is their lab, they will either abandon it altogether, or they will definitely raise their bets to keep it. They are very strong and hostile to everyone, and if they raise we can't deal with it, if they don't raise and choose to flee, we have one less enemy, but we also have less important forces that can contain Tadarin and the swarm. ”

"And on the ground, we have no idea how many more of these labs are waiting for us to smash...... Maybe before we finish our mission on the ground, we will already be defeated in the space battlefield. ”

"I know you might say it's all speculation, but once one of these speculations is confirmed, the danger factor for the entire fleet rises exponentially. We can't gamble with the fate of the entire fleet, commander. ”

"Even if it's for the safety of your own life, please order a retreat immediately!"
