Chapter 1100? ( '▽' )? The Latest Battle Situation on Reach!
At eight o'clock in the morning on August 31, 2552 AD...
As of today, if counting from July 23 when the Heroic and Cautious Fleet arrived at Reach and began to make relevant preparatory work for the arrival of the Star Alliance's main fleet, the incident lasted for nearly forty days. The war on the star field near Tianyuan 4 and the planet that is very important to the UNSC and human beings—the Reach Star, the "Battle of the Reach Star" that touched people's hearts, finally announced the official end.
From 07:28 on the morning of July 24th, under the order of Colonel Holland, the Noble team went to the paralyzed Visgrad Relay Station to investigate possible rebel activities, found traces of the Covenant and issued a "Winter Emergency" When the alarm was raised, until the "Pillar of Autumn" successfully took off from the Asa Shipbreaking Yard at around 17:05 pm on August 30th and escaped from Reach, as the defending and defeated party, the humans of UNSC paid a huge and heavy price. sacrifice!
According to incomplete statistics based on the data gathered by the stupid AI of the castle base that has not yet fallen, as of August 31st, the UNSC Eridanian Fleet, which originally had nearly 400 million military personnel, participated in and commanded the Battle of Reach, had paid a total of One hundred and thirty-four warships were sunk, several ships were missing, and more than 700 million soldiers and civilians were missing or dead...
(According to statistics: among the dead, about 300 million military personnel were killed and missing, and the number of Reach star civilians who successfully escaped and survived after the event was excluded, and the number massacred by the Star Alliance is about 400 million! At this time, because of avoiding There are probably less than 300 million human beings who survived the war and are scattered all over the planet or are still hiding in various shelters.)
Before the start of the campaign, the UNSC's Eridanian fleet consisted of one supercarrier, one first-class carrier, three cruisers, ninety-eight destroyers, seventeen frigates, thirty-two corvettes, and twenty orbital defense platforms and Eighteen maintenance and modification platforms!
However, after the battle ended, the Eridanian fleet had less than ten warships left, except for those ships that had implemented the "Cole Protocol" and disappeared by random transitions and have not been contacted so far. Naturally, all the orbital defense platforms were destroyed by the Covenant. Only 15 repair and modification platforms that were 'empty' and used as shields survived temporarily because there was no need to destroy them.
As for the loss of the Star Alliance fleet, it was even more serious...
As of 08:00 on the morning of August 31st, the Covenant invaded Reach and Tianyuan 4 with 13 warships of the Heroic and Cautious Fleet, 100 warships of the Sacred Sigh Fleet, 80 warships of the Justice Vigilance Fleet and special The 341 warships of the Justice Fleet, including the flagships of the 'Long Night', 'The Seeker of Truth', 'The Sublime Excellence', and the 'Truth and Harmony', total 534 ships All the warships sank in the universe around the Zhiyuan star, and paid the ultimate price of at least four million soldiers of various races killed!
Of course, the number of casualties of the Covenant invasion soldiers is still increasing at this time, because the battle on the ground of Reach has not yet completely ended, at least it will last for ten days or half a month.
Perhaps, after seeing the battle damage data of the two parties participating in the Battle of Reach, many people may feel very strange why the Star Alliance fleet as the victor was completely wiped out, while the human UNSC as the defeated and fleeing party The fleet has a little fleet left. This seems unreasonable no matter how you look at it?
But in fact, this matter is very simple!
At the end of the battle, when the "Pillar of Autumn" escaped from the star, a little girl who was born in anger turned evil from her heart and turned the table brazenly, trying to seriously interfere with the world and may cause the fusion of planes or The risk of a big collision, after directly opening the plane portal and summoning a part of the Reaper Legion, the Covenant Fleet, which was already celebrating the victory and was preparing to pursue the victory of the human fleet and other planets, had nothing to do.
because,
The remaining Covenant fleets were bombarded by the overlord-class Reaper warships with the huge element zero reactor, extremely high energy intensity, thick and durable shields, and magnetic fluid cannons that are extremely powerful for this world. The resistance evaporated, and it was impossible to even escape!
In fact, if anyone suddenly encounters a Reaper fleet with a number of more than a thousand ships after a big battle, they will only end up being destroyed, and there will be no better.
'! ! '
'There they are again! '
'Kill them! '
'no! refuses to die! '
'Here! run! Stop shooting, they can't kill you! ! '
'Run! '
'Robot monster! '
'I surrender... ugh! ! '
'Don't shoot, don't shoot! '
'Wow~! ! '
'...'
On the land of Reach, a group of hands, heads, and legs are all similar to quarians, but the face has a light-emitting light-sensing device, which can be seen clearly even in broad daylight, like a strong LED light The flashlight-like geth troops were silently advancing with geth pulse rifles and the kind of geth 'javelin' sniper rifles, slaughtering the fleeing Covenant troops wantonly.
Under the attack of the overwhelmingly superior number and powerful advanced weapons of the Geth army, the defeated Covenant troops were swept across the land of Reach Star like sheep, and they didn't even have the courage to turn back and resist .
Because, the soldiers of the Star Alliance have already discovered that the weapons in their hands are completely unable to effectively penetrate the shields of those terrifying robot armies, because every unit of the opponent is extravagantly carrying that kind of light or heavy shields. shield?
On the other hand, the Covenant itself, those energy shields that were originally relatively advanced compared to the UNSC, were completely unable to withstand the enemy's shooting? Whether it's a gnoll holding a shield, an elite with a shield, or a grunt hiding behind a bunker, they are all easily killed and harvested efficiently and silently by those ruthless and accurate shooting robots , Even throwing down your weapon and begging for mercy is useless?
'Wow! '
‘That terrible monster is coming again, run away! ! ! '
'no no! ! ! '
boom! boom! boom!
???
In a small Covenant camp on the plain ahead, when the elites of the Covenant gathered a group of soldiers to use the forts and fortifications, as well as the phantom transport ships flying in the air and the "Banta" fighters, they stubbornly swept over from a distance. When the geth soldiers shot at each other and resisted stubbornly, and knocked down a few enemies from time to time, they soon found out in despair: in the distance, there was a kind of monster that was about 160 meters high and had a Four and five joints around its head, which look a lot like their Covenant 'Scarab' super-heavy siege platforms, but something even scarier? !
They have seen them before, and the opponent has extremely powerful heavy-duty shells and unparalleled shields, whether it is plasma rifles, needle rifles, fuel cannons, howitzers, assault guns, or the machine guns of the enchantress fighter, or even their Those shadow turrets, etc., can't cause any damage to it, and the opponent seems to be completely immune to the firepower of their small arms and vehicles?
And corresponding to the opponent's terrifying defense, is the same terrifying beam attack emitted from the eye-like red energy emitter on the head! That kind of beam cannon, with its powerful destructive ability, can even cut an SDV-class heavy warship flying in the sky in half and destroy it in just a few seconds!
As for the other small vehicles and aircraft of the Star Alliance, let alone!
During this night, often in the place where the terrible, powerful walking machine called the "Destroyer" appears, whether in the air or on the ground, there is no place for any Covenant soldiers to stand. And that's what makes them panic.
Hum~! !
Isn't it?
While the Covenant soldiers on the ground were screaming and running away, the huge Reaper weapon, the 'Destroyer' suddenly raised its huge head, and the red beam came from the laser beam on its head. The launcher blasted out, and swept down the phantom transport ships and enchantress fighters that were about to escape in the sky in one click, and then swept towards the ground again, the kind of exile's "bubbleback" self-propelled artillery and the Wraith assault gun The platforms were sliced in half by the terrifying beam of light, leaving molten red glass-like gullies on the ground. As for the Covenant soldiers who were swept away, they were directly burned to the point that only ashes and a piece of blood remained. A heap of broken debris...
boom! boom! boom!
???
Soon, the continuous sound of huge explosions began to ring out in the Covenant's stubborn camp, and then, after the Covenant had no more organized resistance, the geth soldiers who had been waiting fell silent. Following the 160-meter-high 'Destroyer' harvesting machine, it slowly stepped into the enemy's camp that had been drawn in straight lines by laser light.
"..."
Looking at the battle scenes on the screen where the process and results are mostly the same although the locations are different, Noble 6 couldn't help opening his mouth, unable to say a word for a long time.
"Can not believe it……"
"Annie, what are they?!"
Boarding with a certain little girl on the bridge of this Geth community cruiser that is said to be only 361.5 meters long, suspended in the sky above the star Reach, watching the battle scenes transmitted by each Geth individual Looking at the live broadcast of the battle scene, Noble 6 followed the opponent for a whole night, marveled at the guy who was countless times more terrifying than the "Scarab" super-heavy siege platform of the Star Alliance, and After watching the star alliance's defeat and loss all night, which made him feel extremely happy, even if he didn't sleep, he felt refreshed, and he finally came back to his senses. , and swallowed, and asked with difficulty, pointing to the robots that looked exactly like the attacking troops.
"They?"
(?????)
"They're robots called geth!"
(*^▽^*)
"It is a robot race produced by a soft but extremely tough outer carapace and synthetic tissues like muscles!"
(?ˉωˉ?)
In fact, the greatness of the geth is mainly due to their unique neural network.
It is said that they can 'share' processing power, allocate low-level processes such as movement and vision, in order to improve efficiency, so that they can think with more complexity? Although the Geths can't share sensor data like the hives like Rakhni, once the number of 'individuals' increases, their ability to think becomes stronger! An independent geth, the level of thinking is only comparable to the intuition of animals, but if a group is formed, they can think rationally, analyze the situation, make tactical decisions like organic life, and even invent and create?
300 years after the Dawn War, the overlord of the Reapers arrived at the planet where the Geths were located, and then incorporated a part of the Geths. It was from then on that the Reapers’ troops, except for those Reapers who were uglier than the last , and this kind of slightly 'good-looking' Geth troops that can't be 'dead' and can be mass-produced!
But, when Anne went to play with that sister Shepard in the Citadel in the world of Mass Effect, and when she accidentally became the master of the Reaper, these 'heresy' Geths who were the subordinates of the Reaper also naturally became She lost her loyal men, and this time she subconsciously summoned them away.
"I can tell they're robots..."
"But Annie... who are you, why can you command and summon them, and there are so many 'overlord' warships in orbit, they wiped out all the Star Alliance fleets in a short period of time Yes, why can you command them?!"
Obviously, compared to those UNSCs that may be able to create them themselves, they are just like their Spartan warriors, each of which will cost a huge price, and then the final result is a Geth that is slightly less flexible and practical. As for those warships, he was more concerned about the true identity of this little guy who was discovered at the Visgrad relay station and mistaken for a family member of a rebel army!
Just because the opponent can summon the fleet and order them, the agility and combat effectiveness are no worse than that of ordinary elite UNSC marine soldiers, but the shields and weapons are much stronger than their Spartan warriors. Noble 6 knew that the seemingly endless and desperate robotic soldiers were definitely not simple. They were not just family members of a certain rebel family as they had imagined before. So simple.
"This..."
(lll¬▽¬)
"It may be a bit troublesome to say, hey, you should come here and tell him who I am!!"
(?ˊ?︶?)???. .:*?
Feeling a little shy to explain her identity, Anne felt that her title seemed too much and she didn't know how to tell her, so she had to greet a certain Geth crew member beside her. One sound.
'Report! '
'This gentleman! The one standing in front of you now is the savior of the galaxy in our mass effect world, the friend of the human race, the master of the Citadel and the Reaper, the head of the Federation of Heroes, the master of countless parallel worlds and worlds, the world owner! '
‘The above is the basic understanding of our Geth about the great Annie Head of State! '
After finishing speaking, this geth bowed to a little girl who was a little embarrassed and didn't know that he still had such titles before returning to his post in a daze.
That's right, just in a daze...
Because ah, the Geths don’t need to go through peripheral devices like other biological races to control their own spaceships, but just need to be in a daze there and connect the “platform” carrying them to the battleship 'Platform' on it. As for more complex operations and instructions, they can be completed silently and extremely efficiently in their own link 'platform'!
"Maybe that's what it's like?"
o(?????)o?
"ah?"
"The owner of countless parallel worlds and all realms, the owner of the world?"
If Noble 6 can barely understand the previous titles, such as 'savior' or the head of a certain country, then he can't understand the latter ones at all!
"Annie..."
"Could it be, are you God?!"
In Noble 6's limited common sense and cognition, he felt that the existence that might be called "the master of countless parallel worlds and all worlds" or "the owner of the world" could only be Is it the Creator or the legendary God?
From this point of view, maybe Annie, a cute little guy, is not actually a little angel sent by God to them, but God himself descended? And, God is still a little girl? !
Of course, that ridiculous idea just flashed through his mind and he tried to ask about it. In fact, he didn't even take it seriously.
"Eh?"
(???.???)????
"He is not God's troublesome guy!"
(¬д¬.)
"Although people recognize him, he is not his subordinate! However, some of the worlds he manages have been accidentally occupied by others... Anyway, the relationship is very complicated. You only need to know that he is Kepulu The head of a huge country in the star area that spans several worlds, and these guys are all his subordinates!!"
?(*ˉ︶ˉ*)?
Anne didn't mind too much about the issue of identity. At first, she just wanted to play in this world and be a passerby. In fact, she might not have summoned the Reaper fleet and geth army to this galaxy if she hadn't accidentally intervened and fought for humans here on Reach and lost so badly.
(…)
(● ̄(?) ̄●)
"..."
"Is that so?"
It's okay if Annie doesn't explain, but when she explained, the Noble 6 next to her became more and more confused...
However, although it is somewhat difficult to understand, Noble 6 still grasped the key point, that is: this little guy in front of him is the head of a powerful and technologically advanced country! And those "Reaper" overlord fleets that are currently flying over Reach Star and the Geth army that is currently mopping up the Covenant ground forces on Reach Star are all the troops of the other powerful country?
If you think about it this way, it seems much easier to understand.
"But Anne!"
"Now that you have defeated the Star Alliance's fleet, I believe that within a few days you will soon be able to clean up the Star Alliance's troops on the ground, but what are you going to do next?"
"Is it to help humans fight back against the Star Alliance, or..."
Asked here, Noble 6 stopped and looked at him with a little trepidation.
Because he didn't know, he was even more worried. He was worried that this little guy, the Noble 7 he was familiar with, would attack the UNSC again after defeating the Covenant, or would there be any conflicts with the UNSC?
The opponent's fleet and ground forces are so powerful, and even the Star Alliance that is stronger than UNSC are easily destroyed by them overnight, so if the opponent attacks humans in turn, wouldn't their UNSC A dead end?
He didn't even dare to think about the kind of thing that just drove away the wolf on the front foot, but the tiger came on the back foot.
"Next?"
∑('△')? !
"Of course I don't know what to do next..."
=????(???*)
Annie said that she hadn't had time to think about it that much, she just called for reinforcements out of righteous indignation against those unruly Star Alliance forces, as for the future, such as what to do after retaking Reach , then she really doesn't know yet.
(…)
(lll¬?¬)
"Anyway!"
(*^▽^*)
"Uncle No. 6, it's all like this now, let's first completely defeat the Star Alliance on the planet!"
(^_?)☆
Annie didn't have a precedent of taking back the troops after being summoned. Anyway, now that they have been beaten and summoned, it seems a little too late to regret it?
Therefore, she felt that when the UNSC's top management basically escaped and died, and they were in a mess on the ground of Reach, and there were still many crooked star troops of the Star Alliance wreaking havoc everywhere and might make a comeback, she and her men It seems necessary for those Reaper legions to stay here to maintain order.
Besides, there are still so many refugees on Reach now, and their cities and homes have been burned to the ground by Star Alliance warships, so she always needs to take care of them more or less.
"Too……"
Nodding his head, thinking that he was just a front-line soldier of the Noble team, and thinking that he was just a lieutenant No. 6, he closed his mouth, and just continued to stand aside, looking at the pictures one by one, and continued to admire the Star Alliance The unlucky look of those brutal invaders.
Because, those things don't seem to belong to him. Those high-level people in UNSC should worry about them. And he is obviously not a high-level person. He is not even the captain of a warship.
"Keep watching if you want to! I'm going to find a place to sleep!"
?(?′0`?)?
Yawning and stretching herself, Mrs. Head Anne said that after fighting hard for so long on Reach Star, now, she finally has the chance to return to the kind of food that she liked before. Sleeping, eating after waking up, and doing nothing all day long, so what she has to do now is to find a cabin on a Geth battleship and have a good sleep!
These robots from the hands of the quarians must have the same layout as the quarians, and they must retain functions and living areas such as the captain's room, right? Anne, therefore, did not feel that she could not find a place where she could go and sleep comfortably.
As for the Reapers and those Geth armies, they will find trouble for the enemy by themselves, and there is no need for her to command them blindly! Of course, Annie also remembered to explain to those Reapers before that she did not let them or those Geths educate or transform corpses of those crooked stars of the Star Alliance. Allied ships and guarding Reach.
"You guys have to work hard!!"
(???????)?~
Before leaving the bridge, Annie did not forget to follow the example of some leaders, pretending to explain to the motionless Geths.
'clear! '
'clear! ! '
The explanations spoke in unison, and slightly frightened Noble 6 who was still unwilling to leave.
After the world of Mass Effect was blatantly incorporated, it is very rare that the Reapers finally stopped doing the kind of high-end atmospheric and high-grade talent work that harvests life in the Milky Way every 50,000 years. Instead, they began to work in the Milky Way in this world, in Tianyuan Four's Reach Star here has played the role of the protector of mankind and the vanguard of the counterattack against the Star Alliance...
I have to say, is this really a bit of irony?
But there is no way, whether it is these geth or the reaper, they are now just the private property of a little girl, and they are still the kind of people who don’t care about food, pay, have no rest days, and need to go to work day and night The kind that works overtime, and at the same time has to work hard for her without complaint?
...
At the same time, in a certain command room in the underground fortress of the castle base, the survivors of the Spartan red team, Dr. Halsey, and several senior officers of the UNSC base were staring dumbfounded at those who were attacking them outside their base. The base, but now it is beaten by a group of robots of unknown origin and looks like it is fleeing and defeated!
What happened last night, the Covenant fleet was completely wiped out and Reach Star began to be taken over by unknown forces, these UNSC officers and doctors roughly understood it.
However, the more they learned, the more confused and fearful they became. They didn't know what happened to the army of robots and fleets that suddenly appeared and stormed the Star Alliance, but they were more innocent than the UNSC humans. What happened!
So, they are still huddled in the castle base, still cautiously passing through the satellites in the orbit of the Reach star, carefully observing the new arrivals through the small things that are difficult to be destroyed by the Star Alliance, just like giant bugs The fleet and those robots are obviously one by one, but the movements are extremely sensitive, and the robot army is extremely 'luxury'.
'Well……'
‘I suggest to continue to observe and at the same time put soldiers on alert? '
‘Don’t do anything aggressive or approach them until they show obvious hostility towards us! Everything, just wait until our communication is restored, wait until the communication with the superior is connected, and wait until we figure out what they are and where they come from before making a decision? '
After a long time, Dr. Halsey, who also watched the big reversal all night, let out a sigh of relief, turned around, and suggested to the supreme commander at the castle base and Colonel Holland.
"..."
"I see, doctor, go back and rest first, I will continue to watch."
Nodding his head, Colonel Holland didn't say anything more. Regarding those powerful mysterious visitors, he himself was as cautious as Dr. Halsey, so he was going to observe carefully for a while first. Wait until there is a reply from the solar system, wait until they figure everything out?
'Um! '
'Then let's do this first! I'll go to the bottom of the base first to have a look...'
Dr. Halsey didn't intend to go back to sleep, but nodded towards Holland and the Spartans of the red team, and then walked directly to the basement of the castle base.
Because they found a passage below, so she wanted to see, after the door was cracked and opened, would there be any valuable legacy of the forerunners inside?
After all, this universe is too dangerous. There are so many dangerous and potential enemies, and each one seems to be more powerful and more ferocious than the other. Then, she must prepare in advance, mostly for the UNSC, for the UNSC. Humans need to prepare more knowledge and weapons! And the most efficient method is to obtain it from the remains of the forerunners!
