Chapter 823 [265] I Called Someone, Who Did I Get? Is This Right?

Chapter 823 [265.] Shake someone, who did you shake? Is this right?

"I feel like something is slightly wrong."

Hades swallowed and said to the Endless Ones around him. After hurried preparations, they chose a marginal galaxy with poor supplies as a stronghold against the Tyranids.

Then, galaxy-killing weapons were deployed on all the galaxies near this galaxy to ensure that an insect-proof belt was established as soon as the Tyranids arrived.

Trazin's hand, which was directing the construction of the dimensional passage, shook. The Necrons slowly turned their heads, and the two looked at each other again.

"I might know what you're going to say."

Trazin played a long tone, and it subconsciously raised its head and glanced at the sky. Something was indeed wrong.

"This Tyranid swarm is too large."

Hades swallowed again. He could confirm that the scale of this Tyranid swarm was absolutely unprecedented, comparable to three to five times that of when he fought the Octareus War.

This is not just an expansion in quantity and scale. As the number of Tyranids increases exponentially, high-level Tyranids that the Empire has never seen before also appear.

"I suspect there is a mother body in this Tyranids."

The Endless One smashes his mouth,

"It is not a second or third generation mother that has differentiated, but a first-generation mother that is commanding them. The Death Mark who went to investigate told me that the differences between the two most extreme groups of this insect swarm are so great that it is beyond the judgment of whether they are the same. The genetic lines of the races overlap - but they are still united now, and the priority of governing their parent body is obviously very high."

"I have a question,"

Hades looked at the Mechanical Magos who were setting up trenches with Trazin's army in the distance. Apart from the red robes and messy accessories, the Necrons and Mechanical Magos seemed to have similar mechanical content, and the Hades mixed in among them They are also under no pressure, praying that Pluto will no longer debuff their teammates for them.

"Let's assume that there is a first-generation mother body in the swarm that is running towards us. Then - how many first-generation mothers are there in the Tyranids heading to the galaxy?"

"Good question."

Trazin said,

"And the standard answer I give is I don't know."

Hades fell silent. In fact, the biggest uncertainty now is Tyran, who is the last to enter, because no one can be sure of its scale——

At least they can estimate the size of the Silent King's army, but for the Tyranids... it's not easy to say.

If there is a "real" large army behind the large army, then they can all be finished.

"What do the Necrontyr think of the Tyranids?"

Trazin shook his head,

"Most of the Necrontyr dynasty have not yet come into contact with this race, and among those awakened avant-garde, biotechnicians believe that this is an extragalactic creature that is very powerful - but they also believe that this race has the ability to be tamed and The possibility of being made into a slave.”

...Made into a slave, like the greenskins?

Hades thought,

The fish that came ashore were no longer fish. On the way forward, the Great Devourer and the Tyranids merged with too many foreign genes, proving that their plasticity is amazing when the underlying logic is clear.

In fact, Hades once thought about whether the Zerg would be some kind of AI-like existence? Because its actions and principles are extremely consistent with the appearance of a thinking engine with huge computing power.

If so, then as long as you guide it deliberately...

"Tame? Have the Necrontyr begun research in this area?"

Trazin shrugged.

"It failed. After the autobiological transformation experiment, there are few truly outstanding scientific research projects in the Necrontyr. Of course, except for Orican's time scientific research project, the research on the Tyranids has also fallen into a quagmire. I went to see it. Their papers are simply a mess. I am convinced that those technicians used unrepeatable fake data in order to fool the Emperor -

They have never deciphered the leadership and communication methods between the Tyranids because it is too complicated. Preliminary experiments have proved that the Tyranids rely on body language, smell, sound, color, and some kind of subspace information to communicate. Of course, this is just The most rudimentary. "

"There are many more complex mechanisms hidden behind the communication mechanism of the Tyranids. To take the simplest example, you throw a small stone into a swarm of hunting plasma insects. A single individual only needs to pay attention to the behavior of its companions. It can instantly connect with an entire large group and perform extremely complex behaviors.”

Like throwing a piece of bread at a flock of birds, or rushing into a school of sardines, there is no clear individual giving orders, no "giver."

But the group they form will respond in an instant, and there is a high probability that it will be a group response behavior that maximizes interests, and countless complex group models will appear in it.

"certainly,"

The Endless One kicked the stone at his feet,

"Those old guys who are dawdling around have not explored this step. They initially determined that as long as they understand the smell, that is, pheromones, and subspace signal transmission, they can divide the insect swarm——

But they failed, because subspace signal propagation belongs to the "perception type" in the category of scientific research, and the information will be fuzzy, more multi-dimensional and dynamic, and more emotional. This requires researchers to have psychic talents and indirectly observe it. After all, it's just scratching the surface. "

Is that so?

Hades recalled the scene of himself facing the Tyranid swarm at that time. His Black Domain did not completely kill them. He should have cut off some of their communication connections and completely inactivated some of the parts of the Tyranids that relied on psychic energy.

Therefore, after a period of time, some Tyranids died completely because the key organs that relied on psychic energy to survive in their bodies failed; some Tyranids stood up again and began to attack their own kind because Hades cut off their communications.

In the absence of superior command, the Tyranids who could not recognize the signals of their own kind entered the default mode - they believed that the war had failed. The Tyranids' plan for this was to disband and flee on the spot to better preserve their genes. Under the premise of not being able to recognize their own kind, they began to attack each other.

In other words, at least the wave of Tyranids that Hades met preferred subspace communication in terms of communication, and cutting off subspace communication was almost like abolishing all their communication methods.

This is understandable. Without the interference of subspace chaos and turbulence, subspace communication is inherently not limited by time and space compared to other communication methods. After all, the subspace itself is a world composed of pure information and emotions.

The real world requires objects as media, whether it is light or sound waves generated by vibration, it needs "the object itself" as a medium to transmit information - this conversion of media wastes energy and delays time.

If we study the subspace information... the Necrons are not competent, but it does not mean that there are no talents on the side of the human empire.

Hades pondered that if he wanted to get results quickly, he could only let the Primarch come, but after thinking about the psychic Primarchs he knew, he found that no Primarch seemed to be interested in Tyranids, or they usually studied here.

If you insist on saying that Mortarion is one, but Mortarion's points for biology are toxicology, and it seems that he has not pointed to biobehavior.

If Mortarion had some skill points in biobehavior, Hades believed that he could definitely control most of the Primarchs except Angron.

What if he directly destroyed their subspace communications? Relying on the Black Domain to directly destroy all subspace communications, and then let the Tyranids evolve on their own, evolving a communication method that relies entirely on behavior and pheromones?

This thought made Hades shudder in his heart. Wouldn't this kind of Tyranid be more difficult to deal with? Ignoring the Black Domain - is he creating a big father for himself?

He couldn't always use the Star God Lightning to hit the bugs, so the Black Domain with less side effects would be more effective.

But... Hades thought, he remembered that when he was resurrected, he tried his best to kill all the Tyranids who had faced his Black Domain, but he was a little hungry at the time and was not sure if there would be any fish that slipped through the net.

If there were any fish that slipped through the net, or if there were no fish that slipped through the net, as long as Hades used the Black Domain a few times in the next war, I believe that the Tyranids with extremely fast evolution speed would immediately point out the skill of pure physical communication.

A bit tricky.

Hades thought that facing the Tyranids was like facing a pure and absolutely rational existence, with no flaws on the other side, unlike the enemies Hades had faced before - there would always be a few stupid existences or individuals among them.

And Tyranids will not make mistakes, and they are huge.

Hades thought to himself that the "enslavability" of Tyranids proposed by Trazyn was indeed very attractive, and this method was not blasphemous at all, after all, the Hades Clan of the past was still vivid in his mind.

It was just that the Hades Clan later began to rebel against Hades.

Hades wiped the non-existent cold sweat in his heart. This was a rare black history of Hades, but if Tyranids were too big, this trick would probably be repeated.

But this time, Tyranids were probably used as raw materials.

"Well... I feel that we can indeed try to divide Tyranids. After all, there is also the virtue of fighting each other within Tyranids."

"Although this is a strategy of driving wolves to devour tigers, if Tyranids are too big, we will have to do this."

Hades said, he pondered for a moment and decided to ask for foreign aid. When Trazyn told him just now, he had already sent all the reference materials to Hades. Hades blinked and began to ask the biology instructor he knew.

I wonder how the battle situation is going on Mortarion's side.

Hoping to reunite with the human empire as soon as possible, Hades looked up, and above the sea of ​​stars, the vast shadow of the Great Devourer was gathering.

…………………………………………

Mortarion received Hades' letter when he killed the fifth Necromancer.

[……]

Putting away the sickle, and neatly shaking off the green coolant stained on the sickle blade, Mortarion raised his foot and simply kicked the Necromancer's head again, and then threw down a bottle of liquid medicine to ensure that the body of this space necrophile would not be recycled.

But he would have to beat this Necromancer at least twice more later. The Necromancer's data had been retransmitted back to the Underworld Construction. With the repair of the Underworld Scarab, the Necromancer would stand up again within an hour.

Before the Underworld Construction was completely destroyed and the Disaster Scythe and Death Scythe above the planet were cleared, these metal bodies could theoretically be resurrected.

Reading the error-free version! 6=9+Shu_bar first published this novel.

It doesn't matter, Mortarion's troops can always be resurrected.

However, Hades and the Endless have jointly provided a batch of signal jammers to the human empire, which can ensure that every signal transmission will cause data loss, which means that a complete Hierophant only needs to be killed a few times to be completely eliminated.

Next, a lower-level Overlord will take over the command of the Hierophant, but because they are of a lower level in the Underworld System, their computing power and command capabilities will be simulated by the system to be lower than that of the Hierophant, which means that they will never be able to exert the power of the Hierophant.

There is a kind of beauty of imitating ancient warfare. They can obviously hand over the command power directly to the intelligent computing center, but they still have to do it themselves, using their own personality and ability defects. The program calculates a not-so-perfect command method.

After all, the Necrons are obsessed with "staying alive".

Therefore, if the Hierophant is killed, the war dispatch of the opponent will gradually have problems, which is more conducive to the victory of the Empire.

The God of Death did not move. The white mist in front of him gathered instantly and blocked a living lightning arc from the Tesla Cannon for him. Mortarion flapped his wings and read the message from Hades.

The general meaning is that Hades is going to face the Zerg directly. The size of the Zerg is not small. Ask him if he has the time and energy to study the topic of usurping the command of the Tyranid Zerg.

In this regard, Mortarion really wants to help Hades.

After all, it's not an official document.

But the intensity of the war did not allow him to do so. The Primarch spit out poison gas with a grim expression. If you look closely, you will find that Mortarion's wings are no longer as complete as before, and countless holes appear on them - this is the scar left by the attack.

Mortarion needs time, energy, and a large number of Tyranid samples to conduct experiments.

And now, since Hades has not been found, the Silent King has poured all his anger on the Empire. Mortarion has rejected Angron's death once and Conrad's death once, and on the flank, Vulkan is said to have survived three or four times.

This is not too good, after all, they still need at least some energy to guard against the so-called allies - [Guilliman] does not accept the plan of fighting separately, and he insists on letting the same Primarchs accompany.

[Is this what your master told you to watch the show? 】

Motarion raised his eyes and calculated the upcoming Doomsday Cannon attack. The Primarch gritted his teeth and suddenly rose to the sky. The fog that was so dark that you couldn't see your hand in front of you rolled down like it was free, instantly covering the army under his feet.

In the distance, the gathering of ultra-high-energy plasma beams almost made the entire continent tremble.

[……]

[Motarion] waved his scythe with a bad face, and the strange liquid flames rose up, wrapping their army as much as possible. He was not watching the show, he was just writing a report to Guilliman.

Yes, the first rebel [Motarion] wrote a report to Robert Guilliman, the Lord of Cattle and Horses.

To reasonably explain why the three great demons who were theoretically under his command were running around in the war zone of the Empire, and to ensure that they would not cause trouble.

If [Motarion] did not come up with a reasonable explanation, then Guilliman would directly inform the cold-blooded king and ask him to take the three great demons back.

In this regard... the two Guillimans are simply black together.

The First Rebel thought with some resentment, but regardless of that, he came to Mortarion with an expressionless face,

[Just now... did you receive a letter? ]

………………………………

“What the hell?”

Typhons muttered, he squatted behind the bunker, boredly corroding the body of the Necrons at his feet with mucus, while outside the bunker, red and purple lights flashed, and two lunatics were laughing and shouting and knocking all the Necrons away.

The army of the human empire has given up this war zone, but [Vorx] insisted on passing through - after all, time is precious.

With this intensity of confrontation, Typhons chose to stay behind obediently, summoning his Nurglings to fight against low-level Nurgling demons, and throwing a potion bottle to buff the battlefield from time to time.

In the past, he would only be disliked by the two warriors for blocking his position.

"It's better not to show [Motarion] the part about our yin and yang to Lady Psyche later..."

Typhons continued to read the message,

"...Bugs?"

He blinked in confusion, and a little Nurgling jumped onto his knees with a sneer. Typhons patted the little incarnation of his loving father and continued to read,

"Decipher the physical communication mode of the Tyranids without using any psychic energy?"

Typhons paused for a moment, he fell silent, and wrote and drew on the ground with his hands, but it looked like he was drawing circles.

You can try.

Typhons hesitated, he held the little Nurgling with one hand to prevent it from falling, and then poked his head out from the side of the bunker and took a look at [Vox] and Lady Psyche.

But if there is no psychic energy, Typhons must use some "protective measures", that is, the black domain. Only the black domain can absolutely eliminate the subspace.

So far, only Typhons refused to chant Hades and held the stones that exuded an ominous aura. Typhons did not have a tendency to self-abuse, and he did not think that this would prove anything - the mistake had been made, and self-mutilation towards Hades was just self-deception.

However, [Vox] seemed to simply want to die, and Lady Psyche... Typhons could not say, who knew what the beloved of Slaanesh would think? Maybe the first time was with a feeling of longing, and the next few times it was purely addictive.

It is also possible that the first time was to try exciting gameplay, and the next few times were stimulated by the black domain to the point of conscience and self-atonement.

Typhons did not ask, and he did not intend to ask, there was no need to dig deep, and the answer to [Vox] asking why he was loyal to Hades would only be because he was loyal to Hades.

In fact, life in Nurgle has eroded him so much that Typhons doesn't know what his thoughts and attitudes are towards that person now, but he does want that person to scold him--

Typhons is also not satisfied with himself now, but out of respect and love for his father, he can't express dissatisfaction with this body.

"You can try..."

He teased the little Nurgling on his knee with his fingers, and the Nurgling bit Typhons' fingertips with a chirp.

"But I need some black stone first, the kind that resists psychic energy."

Snap!

Typhons said slowly, and the Nurgling on his knee screamed and exploded when he heard "black stone, anti-psychic energy".
