Sword and Magic and Taxi

What's going on now? Dr. Will asked as he entered the control room.

We have seen three landing ships approaching, and the speed has slowed down. We can see more than 20 life signals on each ship, and no weapons of mass destruction have been found yet. Shepard said: Last time They crashed into the shield, but I’m afraid they were prepared this time.”

Do you think they can penetrate the shield? Dr. Will narrowed his eyes and asked himself: Well, this possibility does exist. Have the soldiers gathered?

We have prepared three teams. Ronan, myself, and Terra will each lead a team. We will gather on the platform and set off on the scientific research boat. Shepard said, We can only wait for them to land, and our shoulder-mounted missiles will Can't hit their landing craft.

Agree to execute, we must stop them. Dr. Will said to Shepard: Mr. Mike Longhou has helped us a lot. We should have ZPM to activate the stargate for evacuation soon. You have to buy time and cover. Civilians, especially students, will go first.

Shepard's eyes lit up and he nodded to Zhao Mai. But Zhao Mai was thinking about the opponent's tactical intentions. From all indications, this is not like a war aimed at destruction, but more like using powerful firepower to force the enemy to retreat and then occupying it. The purpose is to find something or obtain something.

Elizabeth, the ancients were no match for the ghosts, but the ghosts never occupied Atlantis, right?

Well, yes, according to our research on the historical logs of Atlantis, this is indeed the case.

Then why are they suddenly interested in this place? No matter how I look at it, they seem to be trying to preserve this place. They can force you to leave or kill you, as long as Atlantis is still there. What is the difference between this place and the past?

Dr. Will thought for a moment and then said: It's us. They know our existence and know that we are from the earth, so they want to find the way to the earth through us! Ghosts can use other creatures as food, and humans are harmful to them. It is said to be one of the highest quality foods. We had conflicts with them before, and some team members were captured by them. They must have learned about the earth!

The last person to evacuate must ensure that the star gate is blown up and no traffic data is left behind. Shepard said, I won't say any more, I have to lead the commando team!

Zhao Mai looked at his equipment, a submachine gun, grenades and a simple bulletproof vest. Was this the alien who opened the starship? I'll go take a look with you. I haven't seen aliens yet! Zhao Mai said, Although I'm not a magician, I can definitely help.

Shepard looked at Will, who hesitated and nodded: Mike, you must pay attention to your own safety. Shepard, this is your responsibility, do you understand?

Okay... Shepard said to Zhao Mai: Mike, come with me. As an observer, you will be right next to me. What weapon are you used to using? A wand or a firearm?

Hand-to-hand combat. After Zhao Mai finished speaking, he saw that Shepard's face was turning green, so he said: I'll check by your side first and won't cause any trouble to you. By the way, if you can convince Diana Pring Si joins the war, then...

Who? This name is so familiar to me... You're not talking about Wonder Woman, are you? Isn't she a comic book character? Shepard rubbed his temples: There was no such person when we registered!

She probably used a pseudonym. Zhao Mai shrugged: In addition to liking Dumbledore, you also like Diana?

Oh, of course! I loved reading comic books when I was a kid. Sorry, I shouldn't say this. After all, you were born in 1919, so I can't reveal too much information. Although I don't understand what's going on, but everyone Sometimes, as long as Rodney makes an expression like the world is going to end, it means something is really going on.

What would Rodney look like if it was something really serious?

The expression that the universe will be destroyed because of this. Shepard picked up a revolver from the weapons rack. It was a souvenir of someone, with the inscription You are the pride of Queens written on it. You should be able to use this gun, right? I think you are different from other magicians in that you still have a certain understanding of technology. By the way, your female companion, the one who is fully armed, looks like she can use a gun. They are all classic guns from the late World War I.

A battle? Zhao Mai teased him deliberately. He himself was tormented by various names, and his nerves were always tense, and he finally got the opportunity to torment others.

Huh? Did I say something? I said world war, world war. Shepard swallowed and said, Just forget it secretly, don't take it to heart, the world is actually quite peaceful, we are just fighting with The aliens have a grudge. Oh, I forgot about this. Elizabeth will blame me again if she finds out.

Are you afraid of her?

Afraid? Are you kidding? Although she raised her eyebrows...you know. Shepard picked up the body armor for Zhao Mai, but he refused. I just respect her very much. She is indeed a qualified leader and a courageous diplomat.

The group came to the platform on the side of the central tower, from which they could overlook the entire Atlantis. The entire city floats on the sea, wrapped in a force field shield. The energy cannons of the battleships overhead continued to bombard, and the energy pillars spread out, boiling the surrounding seawater, making it shrouded in mist. Originally, we thought that the sea could weaken the effect of enemy artillery fire, so we sank. As a result, the sea water was of no use. Instead, it increased the consumption of the protective shield, and we floated again.

How long have the ghost tribe been attacking?

Oh, it has been more than a week, and it has grown from one ship to three now. Their technological level is far inferior to that of the ancients, but the number is too large, especially compared to the elite ancients. We Research has found that they will not attack at all if they do not achieve a thousand to one advantage. Sometimes it even reaches a million to one numerical difference. Oh, I am talking about the numerical ratio of battleships.

What do they look like?

A ghost? One head, two hands and two legs, and a body similar to that of a human being. The ancients are already very similar to humans, or humans are the continuation of the ancients. They said that I have the genes of the ancients. The ghost tribe It is the product of the failed experiments of the ancients. We are still looking for experimental data to understand the emergence of the ghost tribe and see if there are any weaknesses. They are quite smart and have a militarized social structure. Most of them are hibernating at ordinary times. When something happens, Just wake up, fight and hunt. Unfortunately, humans are one of the food. They have little demand for nutrients, unless it is to regenerate body wounds. Ghosts can absorb human lifespan, making people age while they are young or even Immortality. The absorption organs are on the palms of your hands, don’t be caught by them. In addition, the strength, agility and toughness are higher than humans, and the technology is much better than us.”

Wait, I received a signal from the control tower, they are coming! Shepard pointed in the direction above his head.
