The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

1841. Twisted Empire

During further questioning, Shepard and the others also learned more information.

In fact, after obtaining the technology of this biological battery, the Xilu people began to rise strongly, and they began to kill everyone. The reason is that this kind of bio-battery technology is so incredible. If a living creature is connected to a bio-battery, it can generate the energy of an entire small power station!

Not only that, machines using this kind of bio-battery will also become smarter and more convenient. Even a simple stove for boiling water, using bio-battery, will automatically cut off the power when the water is boiling - although this stove has never had this function before.

No one knows how this technology achieves this, but at least what is clear is that this technology has greatly improved the technological and industrial development level of the Xilu people, and it can even be said to be a leap!

Even relying on such technology, it will not be too difficult for the Xilu people to build battleships, because as long as there are enough biological batteries, many things on the battleship can be automated.

At the same time, the Xilu people also have powerful combat robots and drones. With this foundation, the Xilu people are completely invincible in defeating the surrounding opponents!

Although the energy output of biobatteries is not even comparable to that of nuclear fusion reactors, they are very convenient and very simple to manufacture. A simple power generation device, just find a person to tie it to. A warship needs a lot of energy, so just connect a large number of power generation devices in parallel and stuff it into it.

The only problem is that it costs people.

With the continuous development of society, Xilu people's lives require more and more people to serve as biobatteries. So they continued to launch aggressive wars, plundering more people to use as batteries, then building more warships and launching more wars.

The entire society of Xilu people keeps rolling forward in this way, never stopping. The truth is, they can't even stop if they want to. Because as long as they stop their aggression, there will not be enough energy for their entire civilization to use.

The reason why their home planet, Planet Levik, is able to support 10 billion Xiru people and about 5 billion Piek people relies on this convenient, clean, and non-polluting energy source.

The entire society of Xilu Empire has been distorted and deformed.

It's not that they haven't thought that these biological batteries might make their machines conscious, or that the consciousness and soul of those biological batteries are affecting the machinery. But they can no longer do without this technology, and they explain it to themselves through deification and belief.

The Xilu people began to believe that all people who were connected to the biological battery were a kind of soul sublimation, and this process was painless and full of glory. Although the distorted expressions and bodies of these people look a bit scary, this is the struggle of their filthy bodies and has nothing to do with their sublimated souls.

At this point, Huang Yehao curled his lips. He now understood that what the Xilu captain said before was not a lie. Because these Xilu people really think that the people they insert into the biological batteries will have no pain? I really deceive myself to the extent that I make up myths and stories for myself.

how to say? Poor, sad, and hateful.

"I understand..." Shepard shook his head and said, "Why did the Xilu people show strong hostility towards us from the beginning? This can also be explained. Because they regard all foreigners as Batteries."

"Hyperspace navigation in the unknown star field is very difficult, and the range of activities is also limited compared to the Xilu Empire. There are always limits to the surrounding habitable planets and other races. Sooner or later, they will be paralyzed because they can't find more people to use as batteries. ." Lieutenant General He Ru said.

"Before the paralysis, there was madness," Shepard added. "The final madness."

Moreover, their biobattery technology cannot use livestock or animals to generate electricity for unknown reasons. And the Xilu people also discovered that if humans are used as batteries, the durability of the battery will increase by about 20%, and the power generation will also increase, so humans are the focus of their plunder.

But around the Xilu Empire, although there are some humans living together with other races and civilizations, these humans are all fleeing or immigrating from the outer galaxy. They are the lucky ones who have not been torn to pieces by the hyperspace storm. There are a very large number of them. few.

"The technology of this biobattery is quite smart. It can actually tell the difference between intelligent creatures and wild creatures?" Kaiden-Alanco said.

"The power of voodoo." Sen Luo said slowly.

Because the ghost agents were all trained by Gabriel Tosh, they also contracted Tosh's habits. They called all the Force voodoo, and they had a belief that was like totem worship.

"Yes, it should be the Force." Shepard said, "This kind of biological battery actually uses intelligent creatures as a medium to convert the Force into energy. Only in this way can we explain that a few thousand people can drive a A thousand-meter-level battleship. At the same time, humans should have better Force affinity than the Silu and Piak people, so humans will be more durable in biological batteries."

Huang Yehao nodded, "There is no better explanation than this."

Lieutenant General He Ru said in a deep voice: "So, the situation is very clear now. What is before us is a Xilu Empire with a population of tens of billions, dozens of battlecruisers, and weird bio-battery technology. They are cruel Killing, treating all alien races as batteries, from this point of view, it seems that there is no possibility of peace for us. I want to know your opinions..."

Shepard smoothed his hair and said coldly: "Originally, I was also reflecting on the fact that during this first contact with the Xilu Empire, my behavior was somewhat inappropriate, which may have caused conflicts that should not have been caused. However, Now it seems that I just want to send all these bastards to heaven!"

"You are just angry words. We can't really massacre tens of billions of people. And even if the Xilu people are guilty, there are still billions of Piek people on the Levik planet, and they are all innocent. "Ashley Williams said.

"Orbital bombing, kill them all, it's all over. Hahahaha..." The God of Death let out a gloomy laugh from the side. Because the ghost agent habitually enters the invisible state, his penetrating laughter sounds really like a ghost.

"Then we have to deal with their fleet first." Senluo said in a deep voice, "If dozens of kilometer-class battlecruisers like just now swarmed up, even the Eternal would be in great danger."

Shepard thought for a moment and said, "Behead him!"
