Chapter 949: The Abandoned Ship Is Not Something You Can Come to Just because You Want To

"Boom boom boom..."

The heavy hatch opened, and under the dim light, the passage ahead was dark. Under the flickering light, there was blood and broken bodies everywhere.

"Oh, my God..."

Seeing this scene, everyone couldn't help but shudder. This was not simply because of the dead bodies, but because of the appearance of these dead bodies. They were not ordinary human bodies, but more like transformed humans. Although these humans still had human appearances, they were full of various tubes and machines all over their bodies. Some people's arms were even replaced with something like universal tools. Even their heads were opened and connected to data cables.

And now, these people have fallen to the ground and turned into broken bodies.

"What is this...?"

Ashley frowned, walked to a corpse, and looked carefully. The man's stomach had been blown open, and it could be seen that the pipes and machines inside almost replaced most of the internal organs and body.

"I remember the Inquisitor said that this thing is called a servitor..."

"Servitor?"

"Yes, according to the Inquisitor, the Inquisition believes that killing or imprisoning those criminals is too wasteful of resources, so they will directly transform them into this kind of... half-human, half-mechanical existence, and use them as laborers."

Speaking of this, Brother Shepard looked at the tragically dead servitors in front of him and couldn't help but take a breath. When he and his sister were fighting against the Reapers, he and Duanmu Huai had acted together. At that time, if someone made a mistake, the Inquisitor would be furious and said that it would be more useful to make the other party into a servitor... Well, now I can see the real thing.

"But... We haven't seen similar existences in the Inquisition?"

"Because this is technology from the ancient times, the Inquisitor said that the current Inquisition no longer uses it."

"... So, Commander, what you mean is..."

"I think this battleship is probably not from the Inquisition."

Brother Shepard clenched his weapon.

"If I'm not mistaken, this should be a warship from the Human Empire period..."

Human Empire.

With the emergence of the Inquisition, this word is no longer unfamiliar to the Star Alliance. In fact, historians have begun to study the history of the Human Empire period. But I really didn't expect to encounter such a warship from the Human Empire period here. It is conceivable that if this warship can be brought back to the Star Alliance, it will bring a great shock.

"Okay, let's move on."

As he went deeper, Brother Shepard soon discovered that although the appearance of this warship was very similar to the warship of the Inquisition, the interior was very different.

He had boarded the warship of the Inquisition more than once. It was magnificent, majestic, full of majesty and golden brilliance. The shining and gorgeous layout was reflected in almost every corner of the warship. It was more like a gorgeous church, a five-star hotel, and every corner exuded dazzling brilliance and noble temperament.

But this warship was completely different.

The black steel and huge gears filled most of the hull, and they stopped turning silently, as if they were organs that had stopped functioning in this warship. Although its space is also very wide, there is no trace of the majesty and luxury of the Inquisition warship on it, only a silent, dead-silent steel tomb.

"It is obvious that there has been a great battle here."

After checking the bodies, the adjutant said.

"But what puzzles us is why there are only the bodies of these servitors? There should be something else here, something that fought with them, we... ..."

"Stop."

However, before Ashley finished speaking, Brother Shepard suddenly signaled her to shut up, and then everyone heard the sound of ding-dong-dong coming from the pipe in the distance, like someone running.

Then, a door next to it suddenly opened, and then everyone saw dozens of people wrapped in cloaks rushing out, they made hoarse screams, holding strange weapons in their hands, and directly hit Brother Shepard and his party head-on.

"Attack!"

At this moment, facing the opponent's attack, Shepard's brother also gave the order without hesitation, and then the Star Alliance soldiers quickly defended the surrounding bunkers, took out their weapons, and launched an attack on the incoming enemies.

In just a blink of an eye, the original grave became a lively battlefield, with gunshots and shouts one after another. Those attackers were not afraid of death. They screamed and rushed towards the Star Alliance soldiers in front of them, almost instinctively pulling the trigger and shooting at the enemies in front of them. Not only that, the Star Alliance soldiers soon found that it was basically futile to stop these attackers by attacking their limbs. They didn't even feel pain. Only by blowing up their heads and hearts could they give these attackers a fatal blow.

Fortunately, the Star Alliance soldiers were well-trained, and the opposite side was just a mob. After the initial panic, they immediately steadied their feet and cooperated to eliminate these sudden attackers.

"Ah—————!"

As the last attacker fell down screaming, the entire battleship seemed to fall into silence again. At this moment, the Star Alliance warriors were still in fear and kept looking at each other.

"What the hell is going on with these guys? They're just like a bunch of lunatics, these damn monsters!"

"I agree with you that these guys are monsters."

Shepard stepped forward, stretched out the barrel of his gun, and lifted off the cloaks of the attackers. Under the cloaks, he saw mutated, bloated, and rotting corpses. Although these corpses still have human characteristics at first glance, more places have mutated. For example, some people have eight eyes on their heads, and some have crab claw-like organs under their armpits. As for the ones whose bodies are covered with scales and fur, there are countless of them. Even their hands and feet look more like beasts than humans.

"Oh my god, what is this, an alien?"

"I don't think so. Although aliens also look weird, they at least have something in common. Look at these monsters, each of them looks completely different. Even the Batarians look different from them. Much better looking.”

Looking at these monsters in front of them, the Star Alliance soldiers also started discussing. After all, they came from the Star Alliance and were no longer surprised by the existence of aliens in this world. Although in the previous war between the Reapers, most of the aliens' home planets were destroyed and they were also harvested. But there are still some aliens who survive for various reasons. Therefore, Star Alliance soldiers are somewhat resistant to such strange creatures.

"...Let's move on."

Looking at these weird monsters, Brother Shepard always felt uneasy. These things were not human beings, but they looked like humans. It was as if some mysterious, unknowable force had changed their bodies and turned them into human beings. It has become like this, of course, it is impossible...it doesn't seem right?

"Be careful. Now we know that we are not the only ones in this battleship."

On the next road, everyone became more and more careful. After all, this battleship was so big. Even if you just walked across its deck, you could see the dark steel ruins all around. No one knows whether there is nothing in those ruins or whether there is something in it. At least several times, Brother Shepard felt something moving in the ruins, as if someone was watching them inside. But when he turned his head and looked around, there seemed to be nothing there.

"How much longer do we have to go?"

"It's at least twenty minutes away, if everything goes well."

Unfortunately, there is never such a thing as everything going well.

Just as a group of people carefully crossed the Steel Square and came to the corridor on the other side, suddenly, a bolt of lightning suddenly appeared and hit a Star Alliance soldier in the rear. The latter screamed and fell to the ground. made a sound.

"Hi, what's going on?"

Everyone hurriedly turned around, and then they discovered that strange figures appeared above the surrounding ruins and towers. They were all smooth, with long heads, some with two arms, and some with long heads. He had four arms, wore armor that looked like it had been torn from other people's bodies and pieced together, and he still held a weapon in his hand. They opened their mouths, and a long tongue emerged from among the sharp teeth.

"Damn it, this is a trap, let's go!"

Although Brother Shepard didn't know what kind of monsters these guys were, he was sure that they had bad intentions. There were so many of them that fighting them in this empty square was obviously an unwise choice. So Brother Shepard also hurriedly raised the gun in his hand and pulled the trigger at the ruins above.

"boom!"

With the sound of gunshots, the rickety pillars and the platform hanging on them suddenly fell down, hitting them in front of them. At the same time, Brother Shepard hurriedly led the Star Alliance soldiers to run faster and rushed into the passage in front of them.

Chaotic footsteps and angry howls came from behind. Brother Shepard didn't have to look back to imagine that hundreds of weird monsters were chasing him from behind. And all he can do now is lead everyone and continue to run forward.

Soon, a fork in the road appeared. There were two forks ahead, one was dim and the other was shining bright red. Brother Shepard subconsciously wanted to run towards the flashing red passage, but at this moment, an inexplicable premonition made him stop.

"Commander, we must get out of here quickly!"

Ashley shouted while shooting from behind, and at the same time ran towards the passage shining with bright red light, but was grabbed by brother Shepard.

"No, we can't go that way, this way!"

After saying that, Brother Shepard turned on the searchlight and rushed into the dark and dark tunnel.

Under the illumination of the lights, the group of people stumbled forward, and then encountered a fork in the road again. This time, the left side was flashing with yellow light, and the right side was completely dark. Brother Shepard did not hesitate and dived into the dark tunnel again - but even so, because they were not familiar with the dark environment, two soldiers fell to the ground and made no sound after a brief scream. disappeared without a trace.

Then, they reached an intersection again, where there were two forked roads, with a blue light flashing on the left and a dark purple light on the right. Facing this scene, Brother Shepard couldn't help but stop. Then he hesitated and looked at the closed elevator door in front of him.

"Let's go this way and open the elevator door quickly."

"Why? Commander? Why do we have to go this way? Isn't it easier to go on the road with light?"

"I can't explain it, but I feel it will be very dangerous over there..."

"Damn it, I don't want to stay here!"

However, although Brother Shepard tried to persuade, several soldiers left the team directly and rushed into the passages on both sides. Brother Shepard could only grit his teeth, reach out, forcefully open the door of the elevator, then jump up and climb on the cable.

"Let's go!"

Although Brother Shepard couldn't explain it, he could feel that this should be the safest way.

Damn, what the hell is this place?

"………………Space wreck?"

Hearing Duanmu Huai's explanation, Sister Shepard frowned.

"What is that?"

"Have you seen a science fiction movie? A warship was on a sea trial, then lost contact. Then many years later, people found the distress signal sent by the warship and sent people to take a look. It turned out that the warship had gone to hell and everyone inside had died..."

While talking, Duanmu Huai silently recommended "Black Hole Surface" to Sister Shepard.

"I have seen a lot of similar movies, but they are just movies."

"Well, if you take that as reality, it is a space wreck."

"What..."

Hearing Duanmu Huai's answer, Sister Shepard was speechless.

"I've said before that the interstellar travel technology used in the Empire era is to cross the warp, and the warp is very dangerous. In the process of crossing the warp, no one knows what will happen. There are often ships that have problems in the warp for various reasons, and then they are finished. Then they will be like ghost ships, floating back and forth between the warp and the real world. You should have informed me earlier instead of going up and dying directly - well, I'm sorry, generally speaking, going up to the space hulk is indeed a suicide."

"What will happen if the Inquisition is replaced?"

"If the Inquisition is replaced? Pull the distance, lock the target, one shot solves all worries, and there is nothing to worry about the rest."

"Then now........."

"I know, I'll go and take a look."

Duanmu Huai waved his hand and interrupted Sister Shepard's words.

Space hulk, it's been a long time since I went to this copy.
