The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

2213, God-Slaying War (End)

"Joker! No matter what Shepard is going to do, you must cover her!!" Huang Yehao said loudly.

[Although I don't know what you are going to do, I will definitely cover Shepard! ] Jeff Morrow said, [I have notified General Zhang Rui, and he will also cover together! ]

Sure enough, I saw that the Infinity super aircraft carrier in the sky was also turning around and flying in the direction of Shepard's shuttle. At the same time, the entire warship opened fire at full power, firing wildly at the rotten warships that broke into the atmosphere.

Boom! Boom! Boom! ! Rotten warships were constantly destroyed. Even if they were alone now, the firepower of the Infinity super aircraft carrier was still overwhelming.

But the number of rotten warships was still large, and these warships seemed to have noticed something wrong. They didn't care about others and flew towards Shepard's shuttle like crazy.

Not only that, there are also rotten warships in the sky that keep diving into the atmosphere and joining the battle.

Many of those tattered warships are burning and disintegrating in the process of descending into the atmosphere, but they still rush down like moths to a flame.

Obviously, Mnggal-Mnggal also feels that there is something in this shuttle that can really threaten it, so it orders those rotten warships to chase it and fly towards the shuttle.

There were gunfire and rain in the sky, and countless missiles and artillery cut through the sky and ignited the earth. The shuttle seemed to be a bird wandering in the sea of ​​fire. Although it was shaky, it still avoided all attacks! !

Now everyone doesn't know what state Shepard is in, but judging from the actions of this shuttle, it seems that Shepard is still normal. At least the weird and flexible flying posture of this shuttle is very similar to a fighter controlled by a Jedi Knight.

Shepard is a Force sensitive person, which was determined before the exploration fleet set out. In her own words, she is a psychic. However, it is too late for Shepard to undergo systematic Force training at her age, and she herself has no such intention, so there is no follow-up. She just received a textbook on Force training from the priestess. Naturally, there is no guarantee that she has read it.

However, this does not mean that Shepard's Force talent is weak. On the contrary, her Force talent is very strong. So compared with the two ghost agents, Death and Sen Luo, who can only be regarded as Force sensors, she is indeed the one with the strongest Force in the entire fleet.

A fighter driven by a Force sensitive person who fully develops his Force is almost impossible to be hit!

Shepard's shuttle did not fly towards the terrifying pit before, but instead flew towards a mountain range. The Normandy was at low altitude and the Infinity was at high altitude, always protecting the safety of the shuttle.

…

At the same time in the outer space battlefield, Ender-Viking suddenly realized very keenly that his pressure had decreased a lot!

The number of rotten warships besieging them is getting smaller and smaller!

Not because they were destroyed, but because many warships suddenly stopped attacking without warning, and then turned around and dived into the atmosphere.

Some warships were already seriously damaged, but they still dived regardless, and then burned into a ball of fire in the fierce air friction. These rotten warships basically have no shield system.

"What happened?" Ender-Viking muttered to himself.

"Shepard and the others are still fighting!" Matt Horner said firmly.

"I understand." Ender-Viking's eyes gradually became firm, "Do we continue the second round of bombing?"

At this time, he still needed to ask Matt Horner, the experienced former commander-in-chief of the Navy, for his opinion.

Matt Horner shook his head and said, "It is obvious that the situation on the ground has changed. Before they send fighters to report the situation, we should not bomb. What we have to do now is to destroy those warships as much as possible! Don't let them enter the atmosphere!"

"Yes!" Ender-Viking nodded.

…

At this moment, in the atmosphere. The shuttle driven by Shepard was still flying at high speed, and no matter how Huang Yehao and the others communicated or called, there was no response.

At this moment, a huge mountain range in front came into view. The highest peak of this mountain range reached more than 12,000 meters, which was extremely steep and had a bad climate. Due to the bombing of the doomsday weapon of the God-class Titan battleship before, the snow on the top of this mountain range has melted, and now there are rising water vapor and huge waterfalls everywhere.

However, just as they flew towards this mountain range, through the thick fog, a desperate scene appeared!

Thousands of rotten warships have gathered near the mountain range. Because the flight altitude is very low, and the sky is full of very dense fog and rotten spores, plus the strong radiation and interference brought by the doomsday weapon, they did not realize that there was an ambush here!

"Be careful! There is an ambush! Prepare for battle!!" Huang Yehao said loudly. After Shepard left, he temporarily served as the commander of the Normandy and directed the battle.

【Damn! If this happens, we are surrounded! !】 Jeff Morrow's angry voice came from the cockpit.

Indeed, with the enemy blocking them from the front and chasing them from the back, they would probably all die here if they fought under such circumstances.

A bright laser pierced the water mist, and then these ambush warships suddenly opened fire! ! Countless missiles, lasers and artillery fire suddenly set the entire sky on fire!

The Normandy had to activate the stealth device and climb at high speed, entering the anti-aircraft fire circle of the Infinity super aircraft carrier. Infinity also fired back unceremoniously!

But this kind of battle cannot continue at all, because the number of warships chasing behind has exceeded 10,000! And there are still battleships swooping down in the sky!

In this melee, everyone lost sight of Shepard's shuttle.

"Quick! Where is Shepard! Find her!!" Huang Yehao said loudly to the radar soldier.

"No, I can't find it at all!" The radar soldier shook his head, "The battlefield is too chaotic, and the shuttle did not avoid the battlefield just now, but rushed in directly!"

boom! ! ! A powerful missile hit the plastic pyramid hanging below the Infinity, causing a violent explosion that also affected the Normandy, and the spacecraft shook violently.

【This can’t go on like this! We will be sunk! ! ] Lieutenant General Zhang Rui, the captain of the Infinity super aircraft carrier, said loudly in the communication, [If there is no other way, it is recommended to return to outer space and join Ender and the others! 】

This series of actions was led by Shepard. Even if she is missing now, Lieutenant General Zhang Rui and the others are still accustomed to following the lead of the Normandy.

"Where are you?" Huang Yehao looked at Shirley Birkin and said loudly, "Is Shepard still alive?"

At this moment, Shirley Birkin stared at the data on the screen in disbelief and said, "This is impossible!"

"What's impossible! Now is not the time to sigh!" Huang Yehao said loudly.

"Shepard is still alive! And judging from the movement of the nanobots, her brain is in an extremely active state! No...it can't be said to be active anymore. If the brains of ordinary people were like this, they would have exploded long ago. !" said Shirley Birkin.

"What?" Huang Yehao also rushed to the other side of the screen, but found that he could not understand even a word.

At this moment, changes suddenly occurred without warning!

Only part of the rotten battleships were seen suddenly turning their guns and firing at other surrounding battleships! These battleships were almost crowded and close to each other. This kind of shooting penetrated the decaying armor of the surrounding battleships without any suspense, triggering a horrific explosion.

boom! boom! boom! ! ! Almost immediately, hundreds of warships were destroyed! Not only that, this situation is still spreading!

More and more warships began to fire at the surroundings, and the flames of the explosion almost filled the entire sky!

After a while, the rotten warships that were attacked also began to fight back. This sudden internal strife plunged the entire battlefield into chaos!

At this time, there were no warships paying attention to the Normandy and Infinity. Almost all the rotten warships were fighting among themselves!

Lieutenant General Zhang Rui quickly ordered the Infinity to stop the attack and seize this rare opportunity to recirculate and cool the battleship's shield system and weapon system as much as possible.

"What... happened?" Huang Yehao was shocked.

"It's Shepard...she succeeded." Shirley Birkin said solemnly, "No...she didn't succeed, but she is fighting."

"You said she was responsible for this internal strife?" Huang Yehao asked.

Shirley Birkin glanced at him. If it were before, she would have ridiculed the ignorance of this big-head soldier, but now, she patiently explained: "Mongal-Mongal's control mechanism is a A very powerful telepathy. It can be said that every silt clone is controlled by Mongar Mongar. Such a terrifying control mechanism cannot be achieved by any machine or computer except the force. , in my experiment at that time, in order to give birth to a new Mongal-Mongal sub-consciousness, the force was also needed."

"I directly used some wild Force-sensitive people kidnapped from the Empire to conduct experiments. I consumed about 20 Force-sensitive people, and finally two of them were successful. In other words, Mongar-Mongar's son For a conscious body to be artificially generated, it must be someone who is sensitive to the Force." Shirley Birkin described the cruel human experiment very plainly, "And Shepard's action just now was intended to let her control the sub-conscious body. , and then start a war on the consciousness level with Mongal-Mongal.”

Huang Yehao was shocked, "You mean, she wants to become Menggar-Menggar?!"

Shirley Birkin nodded and said, "That's right. She took an overdose of the catalyst, just to temporarily stimulate her talent in the Force, and then make herself a more powerful consciousness... What she is doing now should be They are constantly fighting for control of the sub-consciousnesses on those battleships.”

Huang Yehao looked solemnly and looked at the chaos outside the porthole. He didn't know what to say for a moment.

Perhaps, all I can say is, ‘madman’.

"...If Shepard succeeds, will she become the new God of Rot?" Huang Yehao suddenly thought of this.

"If she fails, then Mongar Mongar will be reborn from the ashes, swallowing her consciousness and becoming even more powerful. All the actions we have taken so far will be in vain." Shirley Birkin said.

"Can she succeed?" Huang Yehao was completely unsure at this moment.

Shirley Birkin shook her head, but then nodded and said: "If it were before, then there would be no chance of her success. Mongar Mongar could squat on the planet Mugg-Faro and control countless clones to destroy countless people. The intensity of its civilization is simply unimaginable, but now... it’s a little bit possible.”

She continued: "Maybe it's God's will, or it's fate. A sub-consciousness created by me escaped, and then this sub-consciousness was swallowed by Mongal-Mongal, and it got a way to split itself... So , it splits a hundred thousand sub-consciousnesses. To create sub-consciousnesses, we need to consume Force-sensitive people to conduct devouring experiments, but Mongal-Mongal himself only needs to be divided."

"If those one hundred thousand sub-consciousnesses fly to every corner of the Milky Way in a spaceship, it will undoubtedly be a disaster for the Milky Way. Mongal-Mongal should have the same plan, so it is planning this. But we came at the right time, and it was attacked by us before it sent out one hundred thousand sub-conscious bodies. At this time, it was very weak because it had split one hundred thousand sub-conscious bodies. "

Huang Yehao nodded and said: "And it was bombed by doomsday weapons, so it is weaker?"

"I suspect that its body has been destroyed by the doomsday weapon. What is now in this mountain range may be its backup." Shirley Birkin said, "That's why Shepard flew here."

"In this case, there might really be a chance!" Huang Yehao's eyes lit up.

Shirley Birkin nodded and said in a deep voice: "But we can't do more, we can only wait."

While they were talking, unknowingly, the chaotic internal strife outside had ended. All the rotten battleships stopped attacking each other at this moment, and instead flew towards the depths of the mountains in unison.

In the sky, there are still battleships swooping down. Countless battleships fell, as if a rain of fire fell in the sky.

The battle on Ender Wiking's side has also ended, no one paid attention to them, and all the rotten battleships turned around and left.

"Did she... win?" Huang Yehao was overjoyed.

"It's probably not that simple..." Shirley Birkin said.

At this time, the spacecraft suddenly received a communication from the public channel, and only heard an extremely hoarse voice saying: [Leave the Infinity behind, everyone else, go back. 】

The voice was almost distorted, but it was still barely distinguishable as Shepard's voice.

Huang Yehao quickly shouted: "Shepard! How are you? Shepard!!"

But the voice did not respond, and still repeated this sentence, [Leave the Infinity number, everyone else, go back. 】

[Leave the Infinity number, everyone else, go back. 】
