Chapter 1653 The Third Party
Mo Ye stood in front of a boxy metal building. The low, square building, which was ten meters high and over a hundred meters wide, had the same color as the gray-brown sand dunes. It was easy to be ignored at first glance.
All the buildings in this area on this planet have the same appearance, completely customized according to the mold standard.
The metallic luster is covered by fine flying sand, and the top of each building is abnormally smooth. The smooth surface has a fine mesh of holes that cannot be seen by the naked eye. According to Xiaoqi, these roofs are all specially made energy receiving panels, which can absorb energy. Several light energy radiation sources, including solar energy, are converted into applicable energy that can be used by various technological equipment.
This is an extremely barren planet with an extremely harsh natural environment. The important reason why such a planet can still become a military garrison is because of the extremely strong light energy radiation here.
The radiation intensity has far exceeded the minimum standard for human habitability set by the Covenant by several levels.
In the Star Alliance, that is a planet that is impossible for anyone to set foot on. Even in the Chaos Star Field, there will be no team that can't think of landing on this kind of planet.
These terrifying light energy radiations that have a great impact on human beings have become energy supply resources that are endlessly unconscious.
"Master, the conversion rate of this light energy receiving converter has reached about 38%."
Regardless of the production cost of the energy integrated storage device and receiver, this conversion rate is quite impressive.
At least it is more than enough to supply daily military needs.
Mo Ye leaned against the outer wall, standing in the dimensional space, with a group of soldiers in military uniform approaching.
The conversation language of the few people was a language Mo Ye had never heard before. They spoke extremely fast and with a strong accent. This kind of encrypted language was really frustrating.
The Zerg Territory is so large, with many races, wide distribution, and various languages. Mo Ye suddenly felt that the civilized society in the Zerg Territory has not been able to develop. In addition to the destructive nature of the Zerg, the language is probably one of the reasons.
There is no unified language in all over the world, how can a chicken communicate with a duck?
How can we develop and co-prosper without communication and build a harmonious society in the universe?
Your Excellency, at this time, thinking about how to build a harmonious and co-prosperous society in the worm domain will go too far. Hey!
This group of soldiers raised their hands in front of the gate and opened it through genetic scanning.
Mo Ye casually glanced at this group of people. The bloody aura on these soldiers was much weaker than the ones he had seen before, and they were more inclined towards logistics soldiers.
When they were conducting the genetic scan, they noticed that there was a row of fine and small characters in an inconspicuous position of the inspection light screen in front of the building.
"Xiaoqi, what's engraved there, it seems to be on other buildings." Mo Ye's mental power went around the nearby buildings, and he found the same marks, these marks were not in the same position, some were in the Some are on the roof by the door, some are on the edge of the corner...
Xiao Qi scanned and analyzed these marks, "Master, this is a set of numbers x0074"
The crooked mark that looks like a crawling insect can actually be translated into x0074. Mo Ye's eyes clearly expressed three words, "Are you sure?"
Of course, Xiaoqi is sure that "this kind of text is introduced in the manual given by Sean, and it can be compared and translated, master."
"ah!"
Suddenly, Xiao Qi's little milk voice raised an octave in Mo Ye's mind.
Pursing his lips and frowning, Mo Ye rubbed the sun nipples that suddenly jumped a few times. It is definitely not a pleasant experience to have such a child screaming in his mind.
"Little Seven—"
"Master, master, this is the number of this army. I found the same information in the genetic scanning system."
"?" Mo Ye's misty eyes clearly showed a capitalized question mark.
"The genetic information is scanned for identity verification. There is a common piece of information in the genomes of these soldiers. This genetic information is not natural but acquired through some artificial means."
When Xiao Qi said this, Mo Ye probably understood what Xiao Qi meant, "Their genetic information has the code x0074."
"Yes, master, they actually entered the soldier's number into the genetic information, so that whether they are alive or dead, they can detect which army they belong to from the residual tissue of the body, and the Zerg probably don't have genetic code ability, so as to ensure the confidentiality of the identities of these fighters to the greatest extent."
Xiaoqi didn't get the genetic code through testing the virus, but directly hacked into the barracks building verification system to deduce the conclusion.
The accuracy rate can reach more than 99%, but it is not 100% sure. Sampling detection, extraction of genetic information and decoding, but small seven is not enough, and professional equipment is needed, which is not suitable now.
Mo Ye decided to temporarily designate the designation of this unit as x0074.
x0074 is completely different from the Extremely Glorious Legion. The Extremely Glorious Legion is displayed in front of everyone in the Temple of Liberty, and even portrayed as a hero, a role model, and a glorious facade, while x0074 is that it is difficult to find out the true identity of the soldiers. of Shadow Troops.
In the information system available in the Temple of Freedom, Major Zon Flander is not a temporary post here.
There is 0074, as the name suggests, there are probably 0073, 007 and so on. The number with numbers cannot be made up.
Stations that can be abandoned at any time, strictly confidential numbers, and secret genetic codes, most of these secret troops perform shady tasks.
Mo Ye also teleported in after this group of people entered the building, so it is not surprising that the defense preparations for the resident space, which is ready to be transferred and abandoned at any time, are almost zero.
After all, whether it is humans, beasts or Zerg, there are very few with space attributes, and those who can advance to the advanced stage are even less negligible, but the investment in space attribute defense facilities is very huge , In a worm domain where resources are scarce, it is obviously unscientific and strategically meaningful to waste a lot of energy and cost on space defense.
This provided Mo Ye with a great convenience invisibly. Even if the space restriction could be unlocked, sometimes it would inevitably alarm the defenders, and Mo Ye could not guarantee that he would be able to unlock all the space restrictions silently.
The interior of the barracks building is very open, and it looks like an indoor gymnasium. The basic tone of titanium gray and the cold metal texture rush towards the face.
Mo Ye smelled a trace of blood, and light war mechs were neatly stacked on the ground. These mechas were full of traces of various battles, and even covered with blood and various slime dust. It looked like they had just left the battlefield Recycled from above.
This is a weapons and equipment recovery and repair center. Soldiers in uniform are sorting and overhauling these damaged weapons and equipment.
Those that are seriously damaged and cannot be repaired will be sent to the raw material recycling department. The resources in the insect domain are scarce, and the raw materials for manufacturing advanced weapons and equipment are of high value. If they are worn out, they will be thrown away. Exchange prices increased.
To be a qualified fighter, you must first be responsible for your own weapons, which is a very important thing in the worm domain.
Mo Ye wandered around the barracks buildings, gaining a lot of knowledge while waiting for Xiao Hei to send a message.
Zon Friend met with several officers after the video call with the regiment commander. One of them had a higher rank than Zon, and he could be judged from the epaulets as a lieutenant colonel.
However, Zuo En's position in the legion was obviously higher, and he was directly responsible to the legion commander.
"All the captives from the last battle have been recovered, including the dead bodies. Among them, 160 dead captives were not successfully recovered because the bodies were destroyed."
Zuo En frowned after reading the wanted report presented to him. The trouble about the captives was unexpected at the beginning, and the least important thing in that battle was probably the Zerg captives.
Unexpectedly, in the end, it attracted the attention of all parties, and almost exposed the secret operation of the Legion.
If Zuo En still regarded the captive incident as an accident before returning to the station, a low-level mistake of mistaking the parasite for a strange species, then Zuo En's expression began to change after reading the inspection report in his hand. There has been a change.
Frowning brows and tense jaw all showed Zuo En's astonishment and importance to this report. The more he looked down, the more serious his expression became.
"Already confirmed?"
The lieutenant colonel responded, "This is the inspection report that came out last night. Among this batch of Zerg captives, the number of parasites that were mistaken for strange species is currently counted as 18. After detailed testing of these 18 corpses, Humans and parasites have been identified."
It may be an accident that one or two were misidentified, but the appearance of such a large batch is more delicate.
"The parasites found in these captives are new varieties that have not been recorded in the temple." The lieutenant colonel paused slightly, his eyes showing a hint of disbelief, "You should have seen at the end of the report that these parasites invade the human body at an extremely fast speed. Humans are infected with parasites for a very short period of time, they are not a Zerg force that goes with the Zerg."
This would be an important discovery if a new species of parasite was discovered in normal times, but the last sentence here and now is the key point, and it is also the thing that shocked Zuo En the most in the whole report.
"Has the statistical report verification of casualties and missing soldiers been completed?"
The lieutenant colonel understood what Zuo En meant by asking, and quickly shattered Zuo En's expectations.
"None of these parasite-infected cadavers matched."
There are no so-called indigenous humans on that planet. If those humans infected by parasites were not brought by the Zerg army, then it indirectly shows that there were people on that planet who did not belong to the Zerg and did not belong to the Zerg. A third-party human presence belonging to their legion.
And they didn't know about it until now, this is the scariest thing.
"What are the identities of those people?"
"Can't find it."
In a place like Zongyu, even if the Temple of Freedom is registered, it is very difficult to find out the identity of a person. After all, the network is not smooth and information exchange lags behind.
It will be even more difficult if the person to be checked is not registered in the Temple of Freedom. Finding someone in the endless worm field is a million times more difficult than finding a needle in a haystack.
But now the only clue for Zuo En is the parasite that is still in the 4012 base.
At this time, Zuo En was actually glad that the parasite was not solved by the assassination operation, because only the living can provide more valuable information. To be alive, this is already a miracle, even Zuo En couldn't believe it was a coincidence.
"Is there a captive army in the 4012 base?" This is the first time the lieutenant colonel heard about it.
"The base is under martial law. It is very difficult to send people in at this time."
"We must bring back that **** prisoner." The attitude was very firm, this matter involved too much, and that prisoner was the only clue for them to find a third party.
The sad golden retriever Andrew was completely targeted now.
Zuo En regretted it very much. If he knew this, he would try his best to get the prisoner before leaving 4012 anyway. Now the difficulty of doing it has increased by more than one level, and he might be caught by that old fox of Daleson if he moves easily. .
"This matter must be reported to the regiment commander." The lieutenant colonel fixed his eyes on Zuo En with a faint warning.
Zuo En's arrogance and arbitrariness is not a secret among the decision-makers of the x0074 Legion.
Zon Friend returned a sharp look to the lieutenant colonel's eyes, but finally said, "I will report to the regiment commander immediately."
At that time, there was a third party that had to be informed to the legion commander. This was no longer within the scope of his arbitrariness. He could not intervene in the upper-level communication decisions, and the legion commander still had to be responsible.
"Hum..." Zuo En snorted coldly in his heart after finishing speaking. He was not satisfied with the lieutenant colonel's attitude, but he didn't say much, but said, "Take me to the place where the prisoners are held."
The pale young man who had been following Zuo En with an empty look finally regained some energy, licked his lips, and the small flames in his eyes danced a few times.
The dialogue that made the undead knight feel boring, Xiao Hei really used the willpower of the knight to not eat these defenseless people as dinner... no wonder!
The real reason is that the soul with no resentment and no negative spiritual energy tastes bad, it smells like it has no appetite.
Zuo En and the lieutenant colonel shivered at the same time, why did they suddenly feel the coldness on the back of their necks?
After all, he is a warrior who has experienced many battles. Even if he can't see it, the sense of crisis formed by his combat experience will remind him. There is always an illusion that he is being watched.
Carefully looking around did not find any abnormalities, Zuo En and several officers had a trace of doubt in their drooping eyes, and at the same time they instinctively strengthened their own vigilance.
Xiao Hei restrained his own aura and hunting desire, and no longer focused on the specific target person. Even if his mental power was not strong and sharp enough, it was possible to detect his existence. (To be continued.)
