Doom: Start with a tech panel

Chapter 228

The little golden mantis waited for a while, stopped to take another sip of water, and cleaned her antennae.The others blinked and fell silent again.When she felt the pressure in the chamber lessen, she flashed the rune to draw attention.

"As I said, thanks to our friends, we understand that our ancestors may have been giants across the stars, striking our enemies and devouring what we like, but the great galactic wheel has turned and we are no longer Top predator," she swiped her antenna, then continued.

“We met humans, and they approached us eagerly, yelling that they wanted to be friends,” she gestured to the sad runes, and made a motion to the small cleaning robots still cleaning up the mess the speaker had made. "The Omni Speaker and the Queen Bee have other plans."

"In a brutal betrayal, we attacked humans and they backed down," she said.She drank again - slobbering, while the other flashed embarrassing and sad runes. "We thought they were defeated immediately. Kill the queen and you win the war. She put it on hold. Waiting.

"We see humans motionless, like prey. We, in the arrogance of our queen bees, when we attack them, mistake the response for fear, terror and brinkling submission. We are united, our hunger is united In unison, everyone moved like perfect cogs in the perfect machine of the universe. But, we made a mistake," she paused again. "You see, we've never encountered the overwhelming rage of a murderous Devour-Cut.

"Even the queen bee flinched as the humans exploded. Even the omnidirectional speakers screamed in horror as something worse than the big machines we still vaguely remember came from every livestock world, every horrible shattering and A savage world, with every destroyed city, is coming out of every corner.

"Screaming their war cry, they occupied us, pinned us under their armored tracks, tore us to pieces with their armored fists, and bit us with their teeth," others flashed in agony. Rune, but she was motivated and trembling, "Then they found our home planet. All the little mantis rubbed their wings in pain.

"Destroyed every single queen bee and omni speaker. They used nanobots to alter our genome so we never produced a queen again, we rarely produced a speaker, burned our royal jelly, appeared They clenched their shackled fists and delivered the final blow before our suddenly separated, fragmented people.

"They saw our confusion, our panic, our pain as we were ripped from the hive mind, and even as they screamed their battle cry, they stopped short," Kim said. "They forgave us, embraced us, taught us to live without slavery. She flashed for a moment, and everyone was waiting, many staring in horror at the two robots. She- waited until the smaller flash , they were formed and ready. She waited for the councilors to signal that they were ready. She saw a question light flashing, signaling approval to the questioner.

The gentleman stood up, a Shawarshanian woman whose scales had darkened with age and her bar thinned. "If I may ask, Raw. She shook her head nervously, then looked up. "What was their battle cry? I see it and it still disturbs you to think of it, even though it's centuries past. "

All praying mantises flash their dejected icons.The colored one moved forward, extending to his three feet. "I am the words we are afraid to say," it declared, raising its sword arm above its head. "I will tell you.

There is a meaningful pause.

Walls pointed his sword at the two Borg. "Say the words we fear!" it cried in a low voice.

The two Borg took a step forward and the sound of their footsteps shook the room.Their roar resounded through the sky, and many councilors thought it was an echo from the stars.

"Remember TERRASOL!"

Li Bo is nothing to anyone.

It's a small world in terms of galactic economy, political influence, manufacturing capabilities, or whatever else the unified-galactic system cares about.Its people are a tiny people who have barely developed the interstellar power to jump into space and travel to another planet.That planet is important, the manufacturing center of the main tentacles of the Unity-Civilization.

The little world has gone from dreams of interstellar voyages, exploration, and merry-go-round to being imprisoned in their little world.Immigration quotas, Garnett bandwidth limits, and even development limits within their own systems are all set by the Unified-Civilized Race Council.

So, before they invented the metal nib pen, Li Bo was part of some kind of egalitarian interstellar society, and even the dream of creating such a society was shattered in court.

They tried to protest in the only way they knew at the time: violence.

Their attempts are pitiful.They only persisted for a full ten years before being defeated again.U.S.-Race Council orders Ribaux people to undergo 'therapy' to remove 'primitive instincts of violence' through social conditioning

Small land-dwelling amphibians are marched into the camp and taught how to properly worship Ukwa's Park Guru Manufacturing Company (a subsidiary of Nu Uruk Entertainment Group) and obey the orders and regulations of their elders.This tiny space facility, the pride and joy of the Libawi people, was razed for "ecological reasons" and replaced by a coal-fired power plant, after all, the U-Space Council had asked UPM to build a much smaller Spaceport much better spaceport. -Point-point, the people of Fort Lee see their cultural heritage being "modernized"

was erased under the name.

With the destruction of history comes the destruction of cultural identity. -- Two generations later, they have become loyal workers at UPM, spending their meager wages on necessities and some simple luxuries, and rightfully so.

Still, some of them harbor a grudge.

It's not supposed to be like this, is it?
Half the size of Lanaktallan, the tendril overseer, the four-legged, four-armed, six-eyed amphibians burrow, stash improvised weapons, and meticulously establish communication links. The Leebawians established small units of resistance, each reporting to a chief who knew only one chief by name.

They rebuilt the structure of the resistant cells again.

Forced to live outside the shining city, they often suffer from vertigo.At the end of the day, they slowly gathered together.The Lanaktalam is obsessed with the city, not the Ribawi.The idea is to bring down those shiny towers and bring Lanark Talon down to the level of amphibians.

So the Ribawis are ready and waiting.

But that's not why it died.

It is infected.

It's easy to start.Flashing dots of light appearing in space.Planetary managers say these lights are just tests and have nothing to do with the Ribawi.Then the scanner failed.

A space station started screaming.

As the infection spreads throughout the solar system, Leebo's Garnett becomes a place of terror.

The people of Ranaktalam advise to proceed with caution and not be swayed by anti-institutional propaganda, even if they board a ship to escape the system.

Then, as the Orbital Recreation Station was destroyed and a ship was swept in flames and exploded, sparks appeared in the sky, wiping everything but the Garnett Node from the night sky.

For three days, Li Bo has been avoiding the silent darkness.

And then, the sound went all over the world, an absolutely terrifying scream of twisted brains.

only enough for one person
