Chapter 267: Judge, “Insignificant” Lord God, Casual Clothes “Travel” (Two in One)
In the teleportation hall;
Although this place is not as "vast" as the Harvest Star or the Earth Core Base, it can still accommodate about a hundred people at the same time.
Moreover, this base does not need to prepare for large-scale military conflicts, but only provides supplies, equipment and various supports to investigators.
Following the broadcast reminder and the silver flash when the transmission was completed, the first batch of gray judges were instantly deployed from Harvest to the Investigation Department base on Reach.
The light dimmed.
Looking towards the transfer area, you can see twenty-four "men and women".
"They" were wearing black one-piece combat uniforms, but the outer armor looked like heavy armor from the ancient Greek period.
In addition, these "men and women" were about two meters tall and carried equipment boxes containing exclusive weapons.
In fact, they were the Greek minor gods imprisoned on Mars by Zeus.
Its physical physique far exceeds that of ordinary humans, its skin can withstand conventional armor-piercing bullets of .50 cal caliber, its ultimate strength exceeds a ton level, it is not afraid of space radiation, and so on.
However, in myths and legends, they are equivalent to the servants and warriors of the Lord God, and are basically equivalent to the existence of the background board.
The 8mm Gauss spike bullets used by Atlas's elite soldiers or the BFG's plasma bombs can easily kill them.
During last year's Martian raid, the most common words spoken by the fallen demi-gods were "Humans can actually kill gods?!".
After all, times have changed.
So in terms of combat data alone, these demigods are simply not comparable to the two tyrants.
However, the reason why Sui Yang incorporated them into the Gray Judges was not because they valued the so-called battle data. It was because they had faced Chaos for thousands of years and experienced unimaginable torture and torture, but they still did not surrender or were forced to corrupt. .
To fight against subspace creatures and chaos demons, firm willpower is far more critical than physical strength.
at this time;
The demigods who completed the transmission took a look around, then each carried their equipment boxes, and followed the broadcast reminders and staff guidance, and left the transmission area one by one, heading to the main body of the base.
And still standing in the teleportation area is the only remaining Greek god who is more than two meters tall and four meters tall——
Pallas Athena.
Their clothing and armor are obviously different from those of the minor gods.
The main god wore light gauze clothes, and used light blue underwear and golden armor to cover his private parts.
She has long blond hair, and her facial features can be described as extremely delicate, paired with sapphire blue pupils and fair skin.
It is indeed the appearance that a main god should have.
His temperament is even more "domineering", his expression is cold, and he seems to be disinterested in everything.
However.
"Lieutenant Athena!"
However, a staff member holding a tablet reminded Athena impatiently:
"Please evacuate the teleportation area as soon as possible! Don't hinder the deployment of follow-up personnel!"
"Oh well."
Seeing the staff frowning, Athena also changed her expression, smiled apologetically, and hurriedly left the transfer area.
What are the main gods and secondary gods? If you put them here in Atlas, "you" would be just an ordinary colleague.
It is true that Athena is beautiful, and it is true that she is a main god with "divine power (spiritual power)", but the staff member was too lazy to pay attention to it.
Aside from the fact that the staff member is a woman and her sexual orientation is normal, Athena's stay will affect her performance and quarterly evaluations. Why should she be spoiled by a "mere" main god?
The fallen Greek gods have been wiped out by the Company's fleets and Primarchs.
What's more, the staff did not regard Athena as a god, but only regarded her as an "abnormal humanoid creature".
If there really is a god, it should be their boss.
On the other hand, Athena couldn't help but sigh secretly after leaving the teleportation area.
Thousands of years ago, they were admired by humans. Unexpectedly, thousands of years later, they would become "employees" of a giant company? ?
The most important thing is that she, Pallas Athena, is a Greek god no matter what. Although her individual strength is not as good as those of the Primarchs, she still has a tactical value that far exceeds biological weapons.
However, her immediate leader, Aya Brea, gave her the rank of second lieutenant and said:
"It's already good to have the rank of second lieutenant when I first joined the company. Keep working hard."
After hearing these words and not receiving the treatment she deserved from the gods, Athena considered "strike" or simply leaving Atlas.
But facing Horus and Sanguinius, who were four meters tall and could kill her father, Athena had no choice but to accept the reality and chose to stay in Atlas and "work and die" safely.
What else could happen?
As for her kin, Hera and the remaining six hundred or so Greek minor gods, they had to accept this fate.
now.
As soon as Athena left the teleportation area and walked into the elevator with the demigod, she heard the various movements of another group of combatants who also belonged to the gray adjudicators as they completed the teleportation.
The gate closed and the elevator took them out of the underground.
When the gate opened, they arrived at the preparation area at the upper end.
Get off the lift and look around again.
You can find more than a dozen main battle tanks parked here, as well as a large number of armored vehicles and Cyclops.
Ground crews are carrying out daily routine inspection and maintenance work on vehicles and mechas.
Members of the special operations team of the Investigation Department and the elite of the Rapid Reaction Force (ARS) were conducting daily visual live-fire shooting at the edge of the preparation area.
As for the Diana-class (stealth-class ship) that secretly transported employees and soldiers to Reach, it was also moored in the large hangar of the Investigation Base.
Although the scale of the Investigation Base established on Reach is not large, with a total of more than 10,000 people, due to being in the "enemy camp", the Abundant Star sent a large amount of weapons and ammunition here in case of emergency.
At this moment.
After Athena and the others walked out of the elevator, a civilian staff member of the Investigation Department walked up to them and said with a smile:
"Second Lieutenant, the Investigation Department has prepared a special rest area for you."
Then the civilian staff member turned and walked out of the preparation area, and continued:
"But please follow me to the equipment warehouse first, and temporarily hand over your weapons and equipment to the logistics staff for safekeeping.
There are no tasks that require the Judge to perform at this stage, so you can enjoy your life on Reach. If you have any questions, you can also come to me as soon as possible, and I will assist you as much as possible."
"Thank you very much." Athena replied.
Next, a group of "people" followed the civilian staff to leave the preparation area and go to the living area built inside the rock wall.
——
At the same time.
In the command center and director's office, which is also set up inside the rock wall;
Ada, who habitually wears red clothes, is sitting on the sofa with her hands crossed on her chest.
Behind her, there is a holographic floor-to-ceiling window showing a desert scene, and in front of her, Cortana in uniform is standing.
Ada looked up and down at the blue skin of the AI, and a look of surprise flashed across her eyes, perhaps because she was confused by Cortana's unique aesthetics.
After all, intelligent artificial intelligence can ask the company for customized physical bodies according to its own preferences.
For example, Celine, Apu, and Melissa all adopted bodies that conform to the public's aesthetics, but Cortana.
She is indeed unique, which makes Ada a little confused.
At this time, Cortana raised her right hand to salute, and said in a serious tone:
"Employee number A-AI·β-002 reports to you."
"At ease."
"Yes, Director." Cortana put down her right hand and continued to report to Ada:
"The technicians have thoroughly debugged the biological weapons code-named "Soldier Boy" and "Homelander", and reprogrammed their brains to enable them to communicate with humans in a simple way, which is enough for the routine infiltration tasks of the Investigation Department.
In addition, before I was deployed to the investigation base, I had already started the construction of the company's official website.
It has now been completed and can be announced to the humans of Universe 08 at any time."
Cortana paused at this point, and used the holographic device in the office to call up several holographic screens for Ada, and then continued:
"Director Wang, this is a graphic video edited by me, which can fully demonstrate what kind of company our Atlas is, as well as the threats of the Star Alliance and the Flood."
In the reporting room, the so-called graphic video began to appear on the holographic screen.
There are battle scenes that broke out in the Antarctic of Terra, as well as the footage of the Homelander and the zombie virus, and the individual camera footage of solving the Pioneer (Pacific Rim) mother planet.
The second is the infected flood that raged on the surface of 0459, like an ocean of insects, and the "naval battle" that broke out in the universe of the City of Charity, and the close-range confrontation with the elite Jiralhanae, etc.
After a brief browse, Ada nodded lightly and commented:
"You did a good job, Cortana, but now is not the best time to launch the official website."
Ada said, got up and walked towards her desk:
"How is the progress of forging identities? Can we ensure that our personnel and biological weapons can enter and exit the Earth under the jurisdiction of UEG normally?"
Cortana turned her head and turned around as Ada moved, and gave a reply:
"With the assistance provided by Apu and Melissa, I have successfully forged safe and effective identity information for all operational personnel and two biological weapons.
In theory , it is possible to go to the solar system and the earth of this universe through conventional means. "
"Yes."
After Ada sat back at her desk, she called up the holographic screen and the keyboard and touchpad of Hardlight Technology, and gave a brief order to Chris, Leon, Maggie and others:
"Rush to New Alexandria City immediately, and go to Earth 08 to carry out the physical purge mission against corrupt generals and senior officials.
Remember, the priority of this mission is to ensure your own life.
The company's new intelligent AI Cortana will provide you with remote assistance."
After editing the content, Ada quickly reviewed it again.
After adding the details, she clicked to upload.
"Director Wang." Seeing this, Cortana reported again:
"The gray judges led by Major Brea have all been deployed to the investigation base. Their judges have been temporarily arranged in the living area, and Major Brea has entered the command center to discuss follow-up actions with you."
As soon as Cortana's voice fell-
Beep-Beep.
Ada heard the reminder sound of the sensor door.
So she unlocked the sensor door and let the person outside, Aya Brea, into the office.
Brea, who was wearing a light gray training uniform and a black beret, saw Cortana standing in the office and her eyes flashed with surprise.
It seems that the major was also confused by Cortana's unique aesthetics.
But Brea soon recovered as before, walked to the desk, stretched out his right hand and said:
"Director Wang, it's an honor to work with you."
"It's my honor too, Major Brea." Ada stood up and shook hands.
After the two put down their right hands, Ada sat back on the office chair, while Brea sat on the sofa.
Then, Ada took the lead and asked:
"Major Brea, the authority given to me by the company is limited, and I have no way of knowing the specific work content of your Paranormal Phenomenon Control Department. Therefore, I wonder what the company's purpose is in sending you to Reach?"
"To eliminate the so-called supernatural phenomena, of course. Thank you."
Brea said, seeing Cortana taking the initiative to pour her a glass of water and handing it over, she thanked Cortana.
Then he looked at Ada and continued: "The limitations of the company's authority prevent me from answering all your questions.
But what I can tell you, Director Wang, and your investigators is that the threats that need to be dealt with by our adjudicators are mainly concentrated on the corrupt bugs of the UNSC and UEG. "
"oh?"
Hearing this, Ada raised her left eyebrow frivolously.
And Brea's words made her contact Leon and Mike when they investigated the incident of vampires and werewolves who believed in the "Goddess of Death".
A little silence.
Ada nodded and said: "Okay, I understand. If you need anything, please let me know as soon as possible."
"Thanks for understanding."
While Ada was communicating with Brea, dozens of investigators and special operations teams including Leon, Chris, Mike, and Maggie had arrived at the base hangar.
These elites were dressed in casual clothes, and their backpacks and travel bags also contained daily necessities that had nothing to do with combat.
Apart from them, the same goes for the soldier boys (soldier boys) and the people of the motherland.
After a group of people boarded the six Black Falcon assault boats that were already ready, the gate installed at the upper end of the hangar opened smoothly, allowing the flight formation to drive out of the hangar and come under the optical camouflage canopy.
At this time, the pilot turned on the Black Falcon's stealth mode, integrating the fuselage with the surrounding environment, and left the canopy, completely exposed to the desert with the scorching sun.
And in the cabin of the Black Falcon;
Leon, who still had a middle-parted hairstyle, sat close to the cockpit and overlooked the dry desert through the porthole.
As for his friend and comrade-in-arms Mike, he was lying on his seat, putting his left arm on his shoulder, and pretended to sigh:
"I'm about to go on a business trip again. I heard that a group of Greek gods came to the base. One of them seems to be Athena? Gee, it's such a pity that I didn't get to see the face of the goddess of war and wisdom."
"What's the pity?" Leon glanced at Mike, "Don't you already have a celebrity girlfriend? Just be content."
"Hahaha! It's the same!" Mike smiled, then looked at the scene outside the window and said:
"It won't be long before we return to Earth. Of course, it's the Earth in this universe."
