Chapter 249 Galactic Crisis-Omnic Disaster (Please subscribe)

Noisy sirens echoed inside the Sacred Glow, and the emergency lights installed on the arches and aisles scattered red light and rotated and flashed rapidly, giving people an urgent sense of tension.

The battleship's shield was like the surface of a lake being beaten by raindrops, constantly rippling.

Near the shield, the explosion's fire continued to light up, illuminating the dark void.

The sudden attack caused the senior commanders of the expeditionary force to fall into a state of brief confusion, but they did not disorganize themselves. It was just because of the information sent by the other party before that they were guessing the identity of the enemy.

The lower-level troops, who knew nothing about the senior leaders' ideas, immediately entered a state of war preparation and were ready to attack at any time.

The fighter plane was pulled out of the hangar, cannon shells were filled into the muzzle, and even the magnetic rails and laser towers began to charge.

"Is it an alien?" Asagai, who was shrouded in detection data interfaces and strategic projections, sounded confused.

If it were a human being, it would definitely not send the message just now.

"Can you determine who the enemy is?" Li Xin stood at the observation window of the bridge, where he could have an unobstructed view of everything in front of the Holy Glow.

Other senior commanders also stood beside him, looking at the magnificent space station through the observation window.

The space station was currently releasing a barrage of firepower. Container-sized shells, torpedoes and missiles filled the vast void as if they were free, but the results were not great. The Holy Glow and several other heavy battleships shared the damage, and their shields only fluctuated without damage. .

Judging from the information he just received, Li Xin guessed that the other party was not a human being, but an alien or something else.

"It's impossible to tell at the moment, but it's obvious that these buildings are in the style of the Human Alliance period." Coder, the intelligence manager with a metal face, gestured to the projection in front of him, enlarging the details of the space station.

"Have they taken away the inheritance of our ancestors?" John also walked into the bridge at this time and stood behind Li Xin.

"The Alliance's space stations and creations have protection procedures that cannot be used by non-humans and are unlikely to be captured. Just like the Kra parasite encountered by the First Expeditionary Force, they can only use subspace means to pollute and activate space. The fortress, but there is no way to completely control it. After the First Legion seized the control room, they successfully obtained the ownership of those space stations." Cord stretched out his shiny metal fingers and pulled out the data shared by the First Legion. , displayed for everyone to see.

"So no matter who the enemy is, we should seize its core control room?" Army Brigadier General Giuffre asked next to him, "Just like the First Army?"

"But it has not been corrupted, and I have not seen any traces of contamination." John said, "The situation we encountered is different from that of the First Expeditionary Force. We cannot use their experience to apply to what we are encountering now."

"I just wanted to express the Human Alliance's safety procedures, not to apply their experience." Curd explained.

John pointed to Giuffre, who had just spoken, "But you caused him to misunderstand."

"That was not my intention, Chief."

"Okay, don't waste time on this issue." Li Xin, who had been silent, interrupted the two of them. "Our goal is to get rid of the enemy, not to discuss who the enemy is. This kind of thing requires technology. Let the personnel worry. We only need to kill them and then hand them over to the detection department for detection, so that we can know who they are. Tell us about your plan. The enemy has opened fire, and we must be ready for battle, no matter what No matter what, you have to win over the other party first before you can say anything else."

"The enemy's fleet group is approaching and is expected to enter the battlefield in forty-five minutes. At this stage, the only space stations we need to deal with are space stations. My suggestion is to try to capture the space stations. The construction style of these space stations is very similar to the creations of the Human Alliance. Maybe we can control it." Giuffre was the first to speak and put forward his own opinion.

Li Xin looked at John, "What about you? John, what do you think?"

"What Commodore Giuffre said makes sense, but my suggestion is to focus on fleet artillery first, directly destroy the space station, and then use the wreckage and prisoners to obtain intelligence. If these space stations can be controlled by us, then what happens next? The tactics used are beheadings. If not, then we can only prepare for a frontal attack."

Li Xin pondered for a moment, and finally decided to adopt John's suggestion. He looked at the fleet captain, Asagai, and said, "It is too dangerous to land hastily. Even if we have legion soldiers, we cannot guarantee victory, and it is against the enemy's The intelligence is insufficient and we should not be too arrogant. We should adopt a more prudent strategy and order all warships to focus fire to destroy the space station first and be prepared to fight against the enemy fleet."

"Understood, sir." Asagai nodded. She quickly clicked on the runes representing the bow cannon and light spear array, and looked at the communications director. "Inform the entire fleet to counterattack the enemy and focus fire to kill the space station first. .”

"Counterattack with the entire fleet, focus on destroying that space station first." The communications director pressed the communication button in front of him. There were also a large number of data interfaces floating in front of him, showing the communication status of each ship.

When the communication button is pressed, the prompt runes on those interfaces turn red. When the other party receives the message, the prompt runes turn green.

In war, communications are hierarchical. If everyone is on the same communication channel, a lot of chaos will inevitably occur, which is not conducive to military deployment.

As the order was passed on, several heavy battleships in front of the fleet and the Holy Glow immediately released cannonballs and light spears.

They are all equipped with the most advanced macro-cannon arrays, which can accelerate live ammunition weighing several tons to one third of the speed of light and fire it every time. In a salvo, the power is terrifying and can easily destroy a small ship.

The recoil generated by the launch of the macrogun array made the entire deck tremble, and the kinetic energy transfer device rumbled. Only by evenly distributing the kinetic energy generated to the entire battleship would ensure that the hull would not be destroyed.

The dense energy beams and shells immediately cut through the cold and boundless void, hitting the shield of the space station, causing it to fluctuate at the same distance, and then more warships joined the team besieging the space station.

Under the fierce offensive of the expedition fleet, the intensive artillery fire instantly flooded the shield of the space station, and ravine-shaped white flames rose up.

The shield generators installed on the surface of the space station were overloaded with frequent flashes, and some even exploded.

The shield changed from dark blue to light blue in a continuous flash, then dark red, then light red, and finally shattered under stress.

Thousands of tons of live ammunition and light spears fell on the surface of the space station, causing a huge explosion.

After the shield was broken, the space station withstood the bombardment for a full twenty seconds. It was not until the flames inside gathered into a huge pillar of fire that it began to disintegrate.

A second later, the reactor exploded, and a miniature sun shrouded the huge space station in a perfectly shaped ball of yellow light.

The bright light forced the approaching warships to lower their baffles, turn on the light filtering system, and at the same time start the engines to raise or lower the hull.

The explosion on the space station was extremely violent, but it was a pity that sound could not be transmitted in a vacuum. Otherwise, the sound alone would have been shocking. Most of the ships chose to stay away from the explosion at the space station to avoid damage to the ships due to the impact. , but several planes flew out from the battleship Holy Glow and headed straight for the disintegrating space station.

They are not going to die, they are just going to perform a mission.

Capture the wreckage of the space station to see if you can capture a few prisoners, get some useful information from the opponent, and determine what kind of enemy the expeditionary force encountered.

The bridge of the Holy Glory was still busy, with no cheers or celebrations.

Ashagai, who was sitting on the command throne, looked solemn, and did not show any joy for destroying the space station. His tense nerves did not relax, because destroying the space station was not the end, but just the beginning. The enemy warships were approaching. The void war is about to break out.

"According to Formation No. to engage the enemy, in the name of the God Emperor, we will eliminate all enemies who dare to stand in the way of the empire's conquest." Asagai's voice echoed in every ship in the fleet, "There is only one enemy in the galaxy. If there is a will, it is the will of the God-Emperor. We will fight for Him, even if we die, it will be a supreme honor."

"Fight for my emperor."

"The emperor's will is like a torch, shining on the stars."

Cheers rang out everywhere, and with just a few words, Asagai inspired those people's will to fight.

Li Xin also nodded happily, "It's perfect. Letting you be the captain of the Fourth Expeditionary Force is definitely the smartest decision the Imperial Council has ever made."

"I think so too." Asagai accepted the praise for himself unceremoniously, "If our intelligence department and technical department make no mistakes, we will engage the enemy in twenty minutes and be ready. We'll make them regret firing on the Imperial fleet."

Li Xin nodded. He did not interfere with Asagai's actions, but gave % trust, "This is your home court, Admiral, give it your best, let the enemies tremble for the power of the empire, all enemies and all evil things will be burned up under the flaming banner.”

The void is the home ground of the fleet, and the role of ground troops is not great, even the storm warriors. They can only play a small role in boarding battles.

In most cases, they can only wait patiently, waiting for the fleet to destroy the opponent's main fleet.

At that time, the expeditionary force will send ground troops to clean up.

The psykers are on standby like the rest of the force, and even with the power of the High Sky at their disposal, their impact in the void battle is no greater than that of a light cruiser.

As the commander of the psychic task force, Triss was not even staying on the bridge to watch the battle with other commanders at this time, but was hiding in her meditation room.

From the day the Expedition J fleet set sail, she brought a psychic team to the Holy Glow instead of staying on her own ship, the Holy Emperor's Light.

Demon hunters, psykers, storm warriors, and ancestor warriors are all dispersed in each ship according to the size of the company or squad, acting as security and assisting in handling some special situations.

It was also to avoid the tragedy of having the entire unit and its serial number removed after the enemy killed the ship with one shot.

Triss ignored the void battle taking place outside. She knew very well that her ability was no deterrent to those giant ship cannons.

From the beginning of the battle, she stayed in her meditation room, using her powerful psychic talent to travel to the highest sky, pursuing the truth of the Solari Galaxy.

Subspace is a mysterious place that does not follow the laws of real time and space. It is a chaotic, disordered illusion that corresponds to rational reality.

Because of this characteristic, psykers see different things when they travel in the highest heaven.

When some people travel through subspace, they see endless green scenery, with lush grasslands and forests, dotted with lakes that look like precious jade, and towering palaces between the woodlands.

What some people see is a city standing in the endless void, extending up, down, left, and right, and in any direction of existence and non-existence, with no end.

Others saw heaven and hell, filled with all kinds of twisted inhabitants, who screamed and screamed, and their voices were full of madness.

But to most people, the Warp looks more like a nightmare of crazy colors and abstract shapes.

Of course, subspace still has some common characteristics.

All psykers can personally feel that things in the warp are always changing, moving, expanding, contracting, rotating, as well as the changes in various scenes and the chaos of colors.

Triss traveled to the sky this time and saw a lush jungle with no bottom, no top, and no boundaries.

As far as the eye can see are huge colorful leaves and twisted trunks. They seem to be alive, always trying their best to extend their branches and leaves.

There are countless dangers hidden in this jungle, from those weird trees and branches, and from those terrible predators.

They were lurking and howling, looking for those souls that could be preyed on. Triss was swimming among them, carefully pushing aside the huge leaves, wandering between the giant trees, avoiding predators, and listening to the ancient voices. Listen to the whispers of things and find the knowledge and ancient truths you want from them.

She heard certain sounds, sounds unique to humans.

Triss followed the voice, thinking that she might be able to find a human psyker. In that case, she could show the other party the sincerity of the empire and let them know that the empire was not here for destruction.

She walked along the sound, and the jungle quickly changed with various scenes according to her pace. When traveling in the highest sky, human thoughts and perceptions are not so clear, and it is very similar to dreaming.

A skilled psyker can skillfully control his own state, allowing him to be between sleep and wakefulness, and be able to act autonomously in the subspace.

There is no concept of time in subspace. Triss thought that it would take several centuries for her to leave.

He kept walking along the intricate jungle. Suddenly, she fell into the rolling waves, and then she found the source of the sound.

Some places in the ocean are radiating blue light, while other places are pitch black, cold and terrifying.

The inexplicable sound came from the floating and rolling shadow in the ocean. When she got close to the shadow, messy murmurs came from the shadow, as if there were countless souls gathered in it.

The shadow was huge, covering a large area of ​​the ocean, but it had no offensive power. It was like a swarm of sardines gathered together, mostly just to protect itself.

There are monsters wandering outside the shadows, like carnivorous fish hunting sardines, waiting for the opportunity to get their food from the shadows.

<divclass="contentadv"> Triss saw a predator suddenly attack. It swung its tail and quickly rushed into the shadow. Before the shadow could launch a counterattack, it escaped and bit Several human souls lived there.

At the screams of those human souls it fled into the depths of the Warp, seeking a safe place to taste its prey.

This scene made Triss feel a sense of sympathy in her heart. Even she was unwilling to continue to imagine the terrible fate that those poor human souls would suffer, but her heart also became more determined. These innocent people must be saved by the God Emperor. Only in this way can we resist those terrible enemies and get a relatively happy death ending.

When the predators roamed, she took an opportunity to dive into the shadows and try to establish contact with it. However, as she dashes into the shadows, the scene changes again, the ocean disappears and the shadows disappear.

She was in a hive city during the Human Alliance period. Countless tall and magnificent buildings stood on the ground, extending toward the sky and underground.

Countless human beings live here, dressed fashionably and with happy smiles on their faces. It is obvious that the life here makes these ignorant people very satisfied.

Triss looked around and found herself standing in front of a huge building. Everything she could see were magnificent buildings and suspended projections.

Holographic technology is widely used here and can be seen everywhere. Even the walls of those buildings have screens that play various videos and advertisements.

This is like a future world full of science fiction.

Triss had a confused look on her face. It was the first time she had encountered such a strange situation after traveling in subspace for so long.

Where is this! !

Suddenly, she was hit from behind. She turned around and saw a young man with a thin face, a hooked nose, and slightly messy hair.

"I'm sorry, madam." He was in a daze and looked a little uneasy, "I hope I didn't hurt you."

Triss said nothing, she just looked at the man in front of her.

Feeling something in her heart, she stretched out her slender white fingers and touched the other person's forehead.

"God Emperor, protect me." Triss prayed silently in her heart, and then her will entered the other party's soul and controlled the other party's body.

In the rumbling factory workshop with flashing indicator lights, a naked man lay in a cabin filled with nutrient solution. He suddenly opened his eyes.

Triss saw everything through the man's eyes.

"Maybe I should go outside and take a look."

Triss controlled the man, and following her will, the man waved his hand, and the transparent hatch fixed with screws was blown away by a terrifying force.

Naked, he levitated like that without any external objects.

Being able to serve as the commander of the psychic task force, Triss's psychic attainments go without saying. Even with the help of other people's bodies, she can exert extraordinary power.

She controlled the man's body and looked around, and found that she was in a huge workshop. The temperature in the workshop was very low, and all the breath she exhaled turned into white mist. By visual inspection, the workshop should be several kilometers or hundreds of meters long. At a height of , there are rows and rows of countless nutrition cabins on the towering walls, all of which are filled with naked humans. They are all soaked in nutrient solution and connected by nerve cables like hair.

"What is this place? Why do humans sleep here?"

Triss searched through the man's memory, trying to find the answer.

It was discovered that he had never had any knowledge or experience related to workshops and virtual reality.

He has always thought that the place he lives in is a real world. He has never thought that he is only in a virtual world, and his real body has always been placed in the nutrition cabin.

"What on earth is going on?" Triss felt countless confusions in her heart.

The sound just now was loud and quickly attracted the attention of the supervisor.

A red beam of light came from nowhere and swept across the body of the man suspended in the air. A piercing siren also sounded, and a bright light instantly hit his body, making him stand out in the darkness.

Several weird figures approached quickly. When they walked, they made footsteps like metal collision.

Triss saw the strange outline and red eyes of the visitor through the man's eyes.

They are not human! ! Triss made a quick judgment in her mind.

As the sound of metal clashing got closer, those figures gradually became clearer. Finally, they walked out of the darkness, and Triss could see their appearance clearly.

They are all robots of different shapes, with mechanical tentacles like octopuses growing on their backs, and some joints have bright indicator lights.

【Abnormal body】

A robot looked at the suspended man, making a hoarse mechanical sound, and then reached over with its long mechanical tentacles, and a shiny needle popped out from the end.

As soon as Triss thought about it, the man raised a hand, and the surging spiritual energy was released centered on the man's hand.

The terrifying psychic power easily lifted the robot up and threw it away.

The robot hit the ground with a deafening sound and bursts of fire.

The robot that witnessed this scene immediately switched to fighting mode. Just as it was about to subdue the man, it followed in the footsteps of that robot.

They were all lifted up by the invisible power of ether, and then thrown out like dolls by Triss.

As for why she didn't tear them apart, Triss used other people's bodies, which was inconvenient and expensive. What's more, she wasn't here to fight and kill enemies. Lifting them up and throwing them out was the most time-saving and labor-saving way.

The man controlled by Triss looked around, and after determining the direction, he flew in that direction, and sirens sounded along the way.

Various robots kept appearing in the darkness, trying to stop the abnormal man.

However, Triss controlled the man and used various powers to easily dodge the robots. If she couldn't avoid them, she would fly them away and run rampant in the factory.

Along the way, she didn't see a single human being. The factory was full of robots, shaped into various shapes.

Triss controlled the man to evade more than a dozen security robots, and finally rushed out of the factory and saw the scene outside.

The buildings outside were very grand. From the man's feet to the end of the horizon, they were all shiny, majestic metal buildings.

The problem is that there are no living things, only metal. This huge city seems like a tomb, without a trace of life.

"What kind of place is this?!" Triss's eyes widened, and bad suspicions emerged in her mind.

At this time, a beam of light flew from a distance. The man controlled by Triss had no time to react and was hit. The entire body vaporized instantly, and the remaining parts were extremely charred and black, exuding the aroma of meat.

Triss felt that her vision went dark and she lost contact. The man in front of her looked blank at first, and then showed a look of horror as if he had realized something.

"No." He screamed, and some invisible force dragged him into the sky, and a vortex appeared in the sky at this time.

The body is the anchor point of the soul. After losing the anchor point, the soul will also be swallowed by the subspace.

Triss subconsciously grabbed the opponent's soul to prevent the opponent from being devoured by predators. After all, she was the one who killed the opponent's body.

The flame mark appeared in the palm of her hand, and the man was instantly enveloped in light, and then disappeared. The poor man was dragged into the realm of the God Emperor.

To a certain extent, the God-Emperor is also a predator in the subspace. As a believer, Triss is no different from those demonic minions.

Just after solving the problem of the man's soul, Triss felt a sudden sense of crisis. She glanced around and found several men wearing black windbreakers and sunglasses, dressed like agents, approaching her.

It was obvious that the chaos in reality made the person behind the virtual world realize that something was wrong and sent someone to clean it up.

Triss did not stay any longer. She had traveled in the subspace long enough.

Before those black-clothed agents attacked her, she used the God Emperor as an anchor to escape from this strange city, quickly shuttled through the strange dimensions of the Supreme Sky, and escaped back to her flesh and blood body.

Triss suddenly opened her eyes in the meditation room and stood up staggeringly. There was a price to pay for roaming in the subspace for a long time.

There was a warm feeling in her nose and eyes. She reached out and touched it. With the dim light, she found that her hands were covered with bright red blood.

After walking out of the meditation room, Triss looked at herself in front of the mirror and saw a terrifying woman with bleeding from all her orifices.

Triss didn't care about her appearance, she just washed her face in a hurry and rushed to the bridge with her servants.

What I just saw must be told to the many senior leaders of the expeditionary force as soon as possible.

Thinking of this, Triss walked a lot faster, and after ten minutes, she had arrived at the bridge.

The staff on the bridge were busy due to the void battle that broke out. Thousands of warships fought in the void, disturbing the cold meteorites and ice.

The light spears and explosions fired by countless naval guns produced strong light, illuminating this empty and uninhabited cold area.

As the captain of the fleet, Asagai is commanding the imperial fleet to gain an advantage. It is expected that within an hour, the enemy fleet will be defeated and the void battle will be won.

As the general technical advisor, Zelick was standing next to Li Xin, John, Giuffre and other senior executives of the expeditionary force, telling him about the intelligence he had obtained from the wreckage of the space station and the prisoners.

"The enemy is not a carbon-based creature." He considered his words before saying the final result under the gaze of everyone, "The enemy may be omnics, the omnics that started a rebellion at the end of the Human Alliance."

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at each other in shock.

"Are you % sure?" Li Xin asked with a frown.

"Out of a scientific and rational attitude, I cannot give you a % promise. But there is a % probability that it is an omnic, and the remaining % needs more evidence to support it."

"Didn't the Human Alliance solve the omnic rebellion?" Cord also expressed surprise, never imagining that he would have to fight against the once rebellious thing.

"Settling the rebellion does not mean completely eliminating the omnics." Li Xin pointed out the difference between the two keenly. "The Human Alliance only defeated the omnic rebellion, but did not completely eliminate them. In other words, it no longer has the ability to completely eliminate them. .The remaining omnics escaped and returned to the Milky Way during the Eternal Night Crisis. Like overflowing weeds, they rapidly expanded beyond the reach of humans. The enemy of the Solari Galaxy is most likely an omnic. .”

"The Solari Galaxy is controlled by omnics, and there are no humans. Doesn't it mean that we can use destructive strikes at will and destroy those robots by any means." Giuffre said, "It seems that there is no need for ground troops to intervene, and they will be exterminated directly. Order, we shall show no mercy to the renegade omnics. Otherwise we will have to pay a heavy sacrifice."

"I'm afraid not." Triss came over and interrupted Giuffre, "We can't use extermination strikes."

Triss's words made everyone look at her, and Li Xin frowned slightly, "You have to give us an explanation why you can't use the extermination strike!!"

Seven thousand eighty, alas, still a little short.
