The Bizarre Adventure of Tartaros Fleet

Oregana watched as the main propellers of the battleship below began to light up, and the ship began to rise slowly, so she shouted while increasing the output of the propellers:

"They're running! Faster! Aim for the engine nozzles and shoot!"

The landing ship has circled to the rear, and the pilot, Lore Freddy, has already made preparations:

【Yes! ] As soon as he locked the target, he heard a slight chirping sound from behind, and turned his head suddenly—the armored panel of the cockpit was still extremely strong, but there were already scratching sounds from the opposite side.

Lore Freddy's cold sweat came down on the spot.

【and many more!Something is not right! 】

"what happened?"

[Flood Demon!Hong Mote's motherfucker is in the back cabin of the landing ship!Here they come! 】

Chapter 1058 Chapter 96: The self-destruct monster is never afraid of infection

"The Flood! The Flood is in the rear cabin of the landing ship! They're coming up!"

Lore Freddy shouted loudly, and quickly pulled out a plasma grenade from his belt. At the beginning of production, it was specially used to fight against armored structures. Burning a hole in the ground can also burn a human corpse to ashes.

From the beginning, everyone knew that the Gravemind controlling the guide could easily teleport within the entire ring, but they didn't expect that it could directly teleport the Flood individual to the landing ship sailing on a high-speed irregular orbit.

[Explode!Explode yourself! 】

Oregana's urging sound came from the communicator, and the sound of scratching the door on the other side became more intense.But now it's not time to self-destruct, Lore Freddy swallowed, and set the data of the system sensor to upload as quickly as possible—whether it is the spatial fluctuation when the enemy teleports, or the Flood's attack Regardless of the model, all of them are uploaded to the mothership, which is extremely important information in future battles.At the same time, he firmly held the armrest of the seat, and began to perform over-standard evasive maneuvers with the limit that the ship could bear.

The first is a high-speed climb, followed by a side roll for three weeks, and then a vertical dive for 20 seconds to continue climbing. The blue propulsion flame outlines a dangerous but gorgeous silhouette in the atmosphere. In addition to the wailing sound of metal, there is liquid in the cabin The cracking sound of the car and the continuous beating of the heavy bag, these alone can clearly tell how miserable the rear cabin is.

The surroundings of the hull were constantly shining with golden light, and one after another Floods suddenly appeared around the hull, and then frantically flicked their tentacles and fell from the sky—just as Lore Freddy had guessed, the corpses The teleportation ability of Brain Beast also seems to have a limit.However, his purpose is not to play tricks on the Flood, but to delay as long as possible, collect the transmitted space data signals to the greatest extent and upload them, and find a suitable location.

Now that the Flood Demon has already boarded the ship, this ship must not be taken anymore, and if it is to make it play the most effective role at the last moment, it must be carefully prepared.

As time went by, the Gravemind's teleportation became more and more accurate, fewer and fewer Floods were thrown astray, and it was no longer the fragile infection spores that entered the cabin, but the high-ranking soldiers who had ambushed the marines on the ground before. Contribute to Tentacle Shorty (tentative name).After they were transported into the cabin, they first fixed themselves, and then used their powerful tentacles to tear the alloy protective door of the cockpit. Within a few seconds, the cabin door began to deform, and the creaking sound of the door shaft breaking also sounded at the right time.

Couldn't hold on any longer, Lore Freddy looked at the protective door uneasy, one of the corners was crooked, and tiny tentacles protruded through the cracks, flung back and forth like letters in a snake's mouth, but it was no longer Need to continue to work hard, the current position is just right.

He entered the final course into the ship's navigation computer, then removed the safety of the plasma grenade and pressed it hard.

It was also at this time that the entire door was torn open, and the screaming and howling Flood army was close at hand. This is a group of monsters that anyone would find terrifying. They are angry and manic like a nightmare, and they rush into the cockpit like a landslide The rocks that fell from time to time.Lore Freddy was instantly engulfed by the Flood. He felt a large number of tentacles piercing his skin at the same time, twisting and twisting under the skin trying to find the nerves and spinal cord, and then fell into a daze.

They did not find a neural structure that could be accessed inside. The neural impulses of this creature were very weird and chaotic, and the spine was even a mechanical structure.But it doesn't matter, now the other party has no ability to resist, as long as this body is thoroughly studied, it can...

But the Flood didn't have this kind of time. Years of fighting against the Dark Worm made it impossible for Tartarus' soldiers to leave any chance for this parasitic monster under any circumstances.

The plasma grenade detonated at this moment.

The blue light engulfed Lorey Freddy, his body tissue instantly disintegrated in the high temperature, and vaporized together with the surrounding Floods, instantly swept through the entire back cabin, burning all the Floods in the cabin, The seats in the cockpit were melted, the operation panel, and the nerve link system were completely destroyed in an instant.The huge air pressure created blew away the hatch at the rear.

Even so, the landing ship that lost its owner was still flying, dragging thick black smoke and flying in the dusk sky, flying towards its destination without hesitation.

The landing ship was not the only one that was attacked, the gunship machine was also hit by the teleportation jump gang, and the gunship machine did not have the strong physique of the landing ship.When the pilot finds out that he has been jumped, he immediately detonates the plasma grenade in the cockpit, which will probably cause the entire ship to disintegrate in the air immediately.However, the Iron Cavalry carrier-based aircraft was not effectively attacked. The pilots continued to find that there were floods near the aircraft, but they all deviated greatly. The highly active transition core mounted on it interfered with the Flood's teleportation.

But even so, this allowed the air support bombardment to be dismantled almost instantly.

On the Burning of Necravo, Dark Rock looked at the scanning data coming from ahead, secretly startled.

After seventeen planetary-scanning probes disguised as landing modules were launched onto the ring, Stesus finally succeeded in breaking through the force field protection on the outermost layer of the ring, extending the detection range to the middle of the first layer of the ring. .It doesn't matter if it doesn't matter, it's a surprise—the scale of the Flood is far beyond the small group in the game plot plus the Gravemind Beast, but it is almost all over the underground in this area.They flow like a river, flowing continuously in the huge crypt system dug by them. The densely packed individuals and the extremely complicated underground passages make people think of creatures such as ants or termites, and there are many big ones among them. An astonishingly large entity.

He even saw a huge tentacles hundreds of meters long advancing like earthworms in the tunnel, but no one knew exactly where the tentacles extended, because this was beyond the detection range of the probe and reached the second layer of shielding force. behind the field.And the target of these tentacles is the Covenant warship.

"My God... What a strong biological reaction..." He grabbed the communicator and shouted, "32! The scale of the Flood is terrifying! All the biological tissues under the ground! All of them! There are big positive Going to your side!"

————————————————————————

Is there a big one coming?

Dark Rock's eager tone stunned Oregana:

"Is it the Flood? How big is it?"

【do not know!The smallest one is as big as Macri! 】

"Huh?!" (dazed)

Mark Ruina is a battleship more than 1000 meters long. Aren't you joking about a Flood entity of this size?

No... This is not a joke at all. The biological battleships I have seen now are only one or two bigger than Makri.Zerg's Leviathan Behemoth, BETA's carbon-based carrier, and 76's Arachi bugship that has been developed and installed a lot but I don't know where to use it, and the deep dark Bugs, these familiar things are constantly telling everyone that it is not a problem to make the biological battleship grow extremely large in the hands of the gene master.

But in the original work, did the Flood really have such a thing as a biological battleship?According to the information given by the Tin Woodman and the Scythe of War, this creature is just using an infected warship.This made her unable to bear to look at the ground below. Under the scorched land covered by biological slime and corpses, countless evil creatures were wriggling in the dark place. Just thinking about it makes people feel There are bursts of hair on the back.

No matter how big that thing is, its purpose must be this CAS-class attack aircraft carrier, so it must successfully destroy the battleship before it does.

Oregana landed heavily on the hull—it was very quiet, and no one fired at this side, which was very different from the time on the Truth and Harmony.Except for the soldiers who were still working on repairing the gap, there were no other Covenant soldiers here. I am afraid that the ship is already in chaos at this moment.A target as small as a landing ship can be attacked by the Flood Lightning, so a CAS-class aircraft carrier is even easier. Although the internal environment of the hull is complicated, the Flood doesn't care about such trivial things as which spores get stuck on the wall.

She aimed at the air behind, and the particle beam shot from her wrist was like a whip, whipping down the Flood Sparrows flying towards this side in the sky. With their broken and burning corpses as the background, the marines landed on the hull one by one , almost everyone's body was covered with the slime of the Flood, and some people just threw aside half of the tentacles wrapped around their hands. It seems that everyone's journey along the way was not easy.

"How many people are left!"

"37!"

Does that mean three Marines were lost on the way?Coupled with the loss of gunships and landing ships in the air...the Flood who has obtained the belt technology should not be underestimated.Oregana took a deep breath:

"Prepare for battle inside the ship! The target is the power cabin! Attack in!"

There happened to be a huge gap on the hull hundreds of meters away, and the soldiers there were busy with their work and didn't even look at this side at all.At this moment, as if they had received some signal, they began to evacuate into the hull, and then, a violent shock swept the entire battleship—the giant ship raised its bow and began to accelerate, and the strong wind flowed along the hull The armor on the surface was blown to the rear, as if it wanted to blow all the people on board off.

"The battleship is starting to climb! Hurry up..."

【Boss!Hold on tight! ! 】

"Varied……"

In the next moment, there was a huge explosion from below. The sound was deafening, and the earth collapsed and the mountains were destroyed—this was not a metaphor, but a reality.The ground collapsed, and a huge object rose from the collapsed ground and soared upwards.

Rushing up from below is a huge tentacle, which rises from the ground like a huge root, and the deep ravines above it are constantly collapsing gravel, large and small tentacles and growths are shaking on it, like a spring breeze Swaying willow branches.The last time I saw something of this size was the eye stalk of the dark worm. To be honest, the eye stalk of the dark worm is more than a little bigger than this, but when I wear the power armor with an exaggerated headgear, I am only [-] meters tall At the same time, whether it is the eye stalks or the tentacles rising in front of the eyes, the feeling is exactly the same——

Like a worldly serpent encircling the world.

In a moment of bewilderment, this tentacle 'fell down', and it took Oregana half a second to realize that it wasn't down, but wanted to catch the rising Star Alliance warship, and immediately Activate the magnetic boots and shout:

"Everyone is ready to resist the impact! Don't be shaken off!!"

It fell down like a giant log that was felled, and landed on the side of the rising Covenant warship. The powerful impact tore a whole piece of armor and everyone felt that their sight was blurred. If the magnetic force was not activated in time If you don't have boots, I'm afraid the person is already in mid-air at this time.But this has not been played yet, the second, the third, the fourth... They protrude from the smoke of the mountain fire, so huge and so strange, as if they crawled out of the darkest abyss of the world and have been dormant Monsters that have been around for countless years.

They grabbed the purple starship tightly, wrestled with its already severely damaged propulsion system, and slowly pulled it towards the ground.At the same time, a large amount of brown biomass sprayed out from the tentacles clinging to the hull, and fell on the hull, immediately forming a blanket-like covering.Those are extremely fresh Flood cells, they meander and crawl on the hull of the ship like flowing water, stick to the soldier bees that have not had time to evacuate like living sticky boards, and then submerge them alive in the biomass under.Afterwards, the 'Flood Creep' searched for the unrepaired holes on the ship, and quickly drilled in. The posture reminded Oregana of the shoggoth maid of the Yasaka family's neighbor Arai's house cleaning the bathtub. .

The marines clung tightly to the hull, staring dumbfounded at what happened before them.

"Boss, what should we do now!"

"Go in! No matter what, blow up this thing!"

"But how do we get in now!"

The breach in the ship is now covered with floods, and the creep is growing around it, even starting to form a thick carapace. A marine aimed a particle rifle at the area and fired a few short bursts. The particle beam boiled The carapace and creep were destroyed, but they healed almost instantly, and the firepower was overwhelmingly insufficient.

But Oregana stood up straight and pointed to the top——

When Liu Lizi raised his head, his eyes suddenly widened.

A landing ship whose surface is already covered with the body tissue of the Flood is approaching at high speed. It is the Tindalos-class landing ship driven by Lorey Freddy—it is still in accordance with the design before Lorey's death. Now that Luo Lei's body and the entire control system terminal have been shattered, the Flood, who has not yet understood this system, cannot stop the landing ship from continuing to advance.

The Flood does have the ability to control AI with the plague of logic, but the plague of logic cannot take effect instantly like it can infect living organisms.It only takes a moment for them to capture a soldier's consciousness and transform his body. If the victim's will is strong enough, the battle in the brain may last for a few hours, up to more than ten hours... This is the end.

But infecting the machinery is another story.Those with AI will convince the AI ​​that the time is calculated on a yearly basis, and those without AI will have to build it up and control it by themselves... But if you want to control it yourself, you must first understand the principles of the various parts of this new vehicle that you have never seen before. If you get the driver's skills and experience, it's really good enough.Take the old brother who is also good at this skill, General Alexei Stukov, as an example, that is, he can play well with the Banshee attack aircraft he is familiar with, siege tanks and bunkers, and even make the attackers The city tanks fired human cannons, turning the bunker into an ancient tree of war, but he couldn't turn on the probe even if he threw it to him for an afternoon.

Now, the Flood didn't have time to understand the principle of the Tindalos-class landing ship, and even because the operation panel was completely melted down, there was no way to enter the interior through this breach.More and more Flood demons are clinging to the outside of the ship, trying to destroy the external propulsion system and attitude control device, but it is still too reluctant to tear the battleship apart with the high-strength tentacle dwarf.

It went straight down like this, sprinkling thick smoke and dense fog of countless spores along the way.

Four cavalry carrier-based aircraft followed it, smashing the last purgatory missiles on the battered hull of the Covenant flagship, and the plasma turbulence enough to burn through the defense system of the cruiser knocked down the flood near the impact point. The magic blanket' was burned to ashes in an instant, and even the armor was melted.In the next moment, the landing ship slammed into the big hole that was torn open.

Time seemed to stand still, and that second seemed to extend into eternity.Oregana stared at the breach. Immediately afterwards, the expanding energy inflated the armor like a balloon, and then burst instantly. Huge cracks spread along the armor surface, covering a large amount of the Flood organization's armor. The board was thrown high and flew to the outside, and several nearby giant tentacles were also torn apart, and the whole ship tilted suddenly. Even the naked eye can see that the hull looks like a model played by a child The same twisted a bit, the alloy armor shell peeled off in pieces, and the continuous sound of metal breaking suddenly resounded through the sky.

The center shaft of the hull must have been shattered under the impact of the explosion, it had suffered enough and long enough.

A breach nearly 200 meters wide appeared on the top of the rear of the hull. The hole was as big as a football field. It was full of melted debris and burnt bodies, and even corpses printed on the wall. The flood waters around the hole The demons were twisting their tentacles in an attempt to regenerate, but they obviously couldn't block such a big hole in a short time.

"Now we can go in."

Oregana pulled out the chopping axe, and the map of the Covenant CAS-class battleship appeared in her mind. She found the entrance to the power compartment from the large pile of semi-molten passage openings within five seconds.

————————————————————

The ground was littered with rotten flesh and broken corpses, mixed with tentacles and green slime.

Those monsters raided the Hall of the Creator, and even though the hatch was closed, they still used multiple ventilation pipes to attack.The Sangheili Glory Guards in the room tried their best to fight. After the first wave of raids, these outstanding fighters blew up the ventilation duct with the plasma grenade as quickly as possible. The high temperature melted the metal together, even Not even the smallest Flood spores could pass through those broken passages.

But this took its toll on the Sangheili warriors, who fought the spores, some of whom were infected, controlled, and then killed each other.The Flood absorbed their fighting skills in life, and the infection made their muscles stronger than before. When all the dust settled, there were no more than three people standing in the room, and everyone was covered in blood and mucus.

The hull vibrated violently, the floor tilted violently, and the sound of metal tearing echoed continuously in the ship. Even if he could not grasp the specific information of the outside world, the captain knew that everything had come to an end.Standing in the floating green dust with the shining energy sword in hand, he said to the Prophet of Sorrow who was lying on the ground beside the throne:

"My lord, we are finished."

The high-ranking prophet, who was originally dignified, looked extremely distressed at the moment, with the mucus and scorched marks of the Flood all over his gorgeous robes, and one arm was also folded in a strange direction.He could not help coughing in fits of green dust, and every breath made the Prophet of Sorrow feel as if his lungs were on fire.He blinked his eyes in a trance, feeling that there was another consciousness in his mind.

He knew very well that this was the monster on the belt.It let its own memories flash past, as if it was sifting through something, and the humming sound echoed in its head-it was extremely hungry and thirsty, wanted to leave the ring of holy relics, and wanted to find a world that could be devoured wantonly... …It may be coming, and no one will be able to stop it, which makes people feel hopeless.He felt that he was back in the control room of the Intrepid, the center of the city of fraternity. He was so young at that time, the words of the envoy echoed in his ears, and the monster looked at him curiously, and then There was a mocking laugh.

This is the memory that he can't face calmly, and it is also the deepest secret, but it doesn't care. It doesn't care about these political things, but is only interested in the countless lives of the Star Alliance.

Let it be, the Prophet of Sorrow gasped, feeling a pustule swell up in his chest, something that was robbing him of his life force.

let it be

"I never thought that my pilgrimage would end in this way." His vision gradually began to blur, and the monster's voice became louder and louder. It was talking to itself, and the voice gave people A sense of peace as if being embraced—but the Prophet of Sorrow knew that this was a complete illusion, but even if he knew it was an illusion, he had nothing to do, he just murmured, "No... Maybe this ending is already doomed. "

"You already knew? Know this?" Captain Sangheili asked in surprise, "Know that there are..."

"How could I know this...it's just...when you tell too many lies, God should punish you? This punishment should only be given to me."

Captain Sangheili couldn't understand this sentence. The face of the Prophet of Sorrow that was covered with dust and blood was filled with blankness and despair. The despair was so deep that it far exceeded the fear of losing his life.It is despair that comes from its roots shaken.He touched the last plasma grenade behind his waist, lowered his head and asked:

"My lord, I don't understand what you mean."
