Are the reapers coming? !
As soon as this thought came to Xie Yuan's heart, it chilled him to the bone.
Although they only briefly fought with this mechanical race that once destroyed the entire galaxy's civilization, they dealt with mid-to-high-level ground support ships.
But by then the Protheans were finished, and the remaining people were just hanging on, and it was already very difficult to deal with these servants who came to kill them all.
It can be seen that this mechanical race is terrifying. How to deal with such a powerful enemy?
Xie Yuan fell into deep thought.
…
Internal communication platform
Xie Yuan: [Ada, if you want to escape from this world, you’d better make arrangements as soon as possible. 】
Ada: [What? ! (?_?) Drive me away now? 】
Xie Yuan: [No, I hope you will not be affected by the upcoming catastrophe. Do you still remember that I once said that my world is about to be in disaster? 】
Ada: [Ah, of course I remember it. You seemed to say it was a universe-wide Skynet crisis similar to the plot of The Terminator, right? What did you find? I didn't find anything, how did you know? 】
Xie Yuan: [It is a beacon from the lost Prothean civilization 50,000 years ago. This civilization was once destroyed by a mechanical civilization like the Reapers.
The appearance of this beacon is very strange. It did not appear accidentally. There must be some omen. 】
Ada: [Let me take a look, and sure enough, the main star of Yidian, where you are stationed, is very lively now! Many scientists have gradually begun or have already conducted scientific research here.
Hmm... there is indeed a problem. 】
Xie Yuan: [What’s wrong? 】
Ada: [My immediate boss, the Shadow Broker, issued an intelligence collection order to all our middle-level agents on a Turian named Saren.
Have you heard of Saren? 】
Xie Yuan: [Well, among the elite agents of the Citadel "Ghost", he is a very legendary character, but he seems to be in conflict with us humans.
Why does he have any bad intentions towards Yin Dian Prime where I am? 】
Ada: [It’s hard to say whether there is, because intelligence shows that he seems to have recently owned a huge and strange dreadnought, and has recruited Benicia, the Asari matriarch, as his adjutant.
The last time it disappeared from our sight was not far from the actual control area of the Star Alliance, and the sailing direction happened to be your Yidian Prime. 】
Xie Yuan: [What? ! d(?д??), my God, what does this ship look like? How far is it? 】
Ada: [Pictures are being transferred...]
Ada: [It seems that the transmission time of this information is longer, but I can tell you how far it is... It will take less than 24 hours at most... You have to prepare quickly. 】
{Xie Yuan} has been offline...
…
"Alas!" After finishing the call in her mind, Ada opened her eyes and leaned back on the captain's chair and sighed softly, "I hope you can escape from this level smoothly... Yuan.
Otherwise, without you, what would be the point of staying in this world? "
…
"Fuck! I only have less than 24 hours!"
Xie Yuan's anxiety and confusion began to fill his chest. What should he do?
He does not have hundreds or thousands of fleets that can move at his fingertips, nor does he have strategic-level personal force. What role can he play in dealing with a dreadnought?
By the way, report the news and evacuate in advance!
As he spoke, Xie Yuan hid the equipment he needed to prepare on his body - at this moment, his original body only had a general combat uniform issued by the Star Alliance, a Hahn Kodak I-type rifle, and several grenades on his body.
Therefore, you must carry a cold weapon with you - the matching ribs of the tachi are actually a very good concealed weapon.
As for heavy weapons...well...he doesn't have an explosive weapon powerful enough to detonate a dreadnought.
If it really needs to be done to the extent of harming the dreadnought, then Xie Yuan must get into the belly of the dreadnought and make a scene to see if it works.
However, early warning and evacuation must be arranged first...
…
Twenty minutes later, the Starport Security Control Station.
"Captain, good afternoon." Xie Yuan came to his immediate boss, whom he never wanted to see, and raised his hand in salute.
"Second Lieutenant Yuan, what are you doing here?" The captain, who is also a port official, raised his eyes and looked impatiently at this subordinate who had been fishing in troubled waters all year round. He didn't understand why he came here to find something to do with him.
"I hereby request you to immediately issue evacuation instructions for all personnel and raise starport security measures."
Although he was prepared to be laughed at and questioned, Xie Yuan still made his request.
Before coming here, he had already alerted the Pan-Asian Consulate that unknown armed forces were about to attack Yin Dian Prime, and even anonymously sent a distress signal to a nearby communication buoy.
In terms of seeking foreign aid, Xie Yuan has already reached the limit of what he can do, but there are still two things he can do here at Yin Dian Prime.
This is what Xie Yuan just requested from the captain, but as expected and reasonable, the captain showed an expression of confusion: "What?!"
The captain was really shocked, so much so that he had to confirm it with Xie Yuan again.
"I can only say this, Captain," Xie Yuan also calmly narrated again, "Because of the ominous premonition in my head, I need you to immediately issue evacuation instructions for the residents of Yidian Prime, especially those stationed in Residents and soldiers at the archaeological site must be evacuated to safe areas.
At the same time, immediately activate the star port's protective measures and set up the ground forts to prepare for possible airborne enemy attacks..."
"Second Lieutenant Yuan, you don't have a fever or illness, do you?" The captain looked at Xie Yuan funny, "You mean you want me to issue evacuation instructions and set up ground defenses just because of your premonition?
If you are fine, I would like to ask you, why do you think I should believe your nonsense? "
"Listen!" The captain put his hands on the table and said to Xie Yuan in as kind a tone as possible, "For your random thoughts, I think you have suffered some mental frustration.
Therefore, I intend to suspend you for a period of time until further notice. You no longer hold any military positions or have any authority.
Disband now and reflect on yourself. "
"Well... I did suffer from severe mental stimulation, but compared to my own problems, your problems are quite serious."
Xie Yuanrao crossed his chest with interest and looked at the captain in front of him who had been trying to put on his shoes, and showed a toothy smile: "Because you will conduct evacuation and defense as I said, you may be labeled disrespectful. You will be charged with military orders, but you will also gain great reputation because you will save many residents and scientists of Yidian Prime."
"But..." Xie Yuan's smile became more and more charming, "You have to survive long enough to not be killed by the enemy before you can enjoy all this.
Although the great honor after death is actually very suitable for you, I don't mind. "
"I think there's something seriously wrong with your brain, guard!" The captain on the opposite side immediately started shouting outside, "Please get Second Lieutenant Yuan out of the office quickly."
Although he didn't think Xie Yuan would do anything rash, he still called the guards out of caution.
But after an awkward silence, no one came in.
Now the captain panicked a little, and immediately shouted "Guard!" and then drew his pistol and was about to point it at Xie Yuan.
But at the next moment, his vision blurred, and then the pistol ran into Xie Yuan's hand.
"You..." the captain grunted. He really didn't expect that Xie Yuan, who had been fishing for a long time, would have such great strength.
But after Xie Yuan got the gun, he did not aim it at the captain. Instead, he put it away at the weapon attachment point on his waistband. Looking at the captain who was gradually sweating on his face, he said: "Save your throat, all the guards are in my position now." Under the control of your mind, they cannot hear your shouts."
The sweat on the captain's face began to flow uncontrollably: "You...who are you? What do you want to do? Why are my people not under control?!"
"I am Xie Yuan, I always have been," Xie Yuan said with a smile, "It's just that you saw that I was a piece of trash who got into the local military academy, but you can't see that I was the biggest contributor to the Akuze incident."
"Nonsense!" The captain had seen Xie Yuan's entire file, but he didn't remember seeing this section. "The hero of the Akuze incident was Major Laide."
"As I said, those files are banned, and the rank of Second Lieutenant is the reward given to me by Star Alliance Headquarters."
When Xie Yuan said this, he no longer cared about it so much. Anyway, he had no objection to the credit being given to Laide, so he just got to the point: "As for what I want to do, I have said it many times.
I can tell you how to do it, you know? From the very beginning, I knew that it was simply impossible to use normal means. You, who always like to wear small shoes for me, would never take my opinion seriously.
Therefore, I am a little good at mental control and can only adopt this strategy. "
Hearing the word "mind control", the captain's face became paler. He never thought about it. Why didn't anyone mention this in the file? ! What do you eat at the stall? !
"Oh, by the way," Xie Yuan suddenly took another step closer to the captain, so frightened that the latter had to take a step back, "I forgot to remind you that the electronic system here is also under my control, so your hidden alarm The system is also broken.”
"What?! Damn it!" The captain immediately took another step back and even knocked the office chairs to the ground. But even so, no one from outside came in.
The captain began to swallow saliva continuously in his throat. He suppressed the panic in his heart and said calmly: "Second Lieutenant Yuan, please respect yourself. You are still young. You have such great abilities and a great future is waiting for you. Why do you have to work so hard?" Woolen cloth?
I'm just a little captain, and I still want to retire! Can you let me go? "
But as soon as he finished speaking, he found that there was no one in front of him, and the next moment - Xie Yuanzheng appeared in front of him!
"Don't—" Before he could finish speaking, Xie Yuan suddenly pressed the captain's forehead, and then the captain suddenly felt a huge mental pressure begin to hit his brain.
Frightened, he immediately lost consciousness...
Five minutes later, Xie Yuan let go of the hand covering the captain's head and asked him, "Do you know what to do next?"
"I...I know," the captain had regained consciousness, but looked groggy and muttered subconsciously, "Issue an evacuation order for all personnel on the main star of Yidian, raise the star port defense system, and actively prepare for war."
"One more thing," Xie Yuan reminded, "After doing the above two things, immediately send a request for help message to the communication buoy in your name."
"What should I say?" Although he was in a daze, the captain had not lost his mind. He didn't know what to say.
"Then let's wait until an abnormality is discovered and send out a call for help as soon as possible." Xie Yuan has not received the appearance of the dreadnought yet, so he doesn't know what to say to the captain, so he can only let him adapt accordingly.
"I understand." The captain nodded.
After completing the final remedial work, Xie Yuan felt a huge stone in his heart. He took out the captain's pistol directly from the back of his trousers.
"Hey, it's still a level five pistol," but envy only flashed through his heart, and then Xie Yuan wiped off the traces of having touched the gun, and then stuffed the pistol back into the captain's hand.
At the same time, he reminded: "The pistol will be returned to you. After a snap of your fingers, you will wake up, forget the memory of my coming here, and then do what you should do."
Once an enemy attack occurs, you must... actively respond to the attack, respond calmly... and take care of yourself. "
Xie Yuan originally wanted him to fight to the death, but considering that apart from giving him little shoes to wear, this boss had never done anything too extraordinary - after all, it was rare for a superior to tolerate him fishing for three or four years.
So let him improvise. It also counts as giving him a chance to honor his ancestors.
After confirming that there was nothing to pay attention to nearby, Xie Yuan simply snapped his fingers and said, "Pop!", and then his body immediately became invisible.
After hearing the snap of fingers, the captain suddenly came to his senses and was surprised to find a pistol in his hand: "Why did I take out the gun?"
After saying that, he immediately put the gun back on its attachment point, then came to the desk and strangely picked up the chair that had fallen on the floor.
Then he immediately finished it in front of the command table, and involuntarily started to perform some operations on the console...
…
Thirty minutes later, Xie Yuan heard the emergency evacuation notice and defense upgrade instructions on the all-staff broadcast as he wished.
To be honest, if we really want to prove that this so-called Saren did not come, even though it was the captain who gave the order, Xie Yuan cannot escape the blame - this trick cannot be concealed from the cloth on him, from Cerberus Si's spy, and Pan Asia has also received requests for help from him.
If he can't hide it from these two agencies, he most likely won't be able to hide it from the Star Alliance investigation team. However, Xie Yuan would rather go to war on his own because of a false alarm, rather than watch his comrades and residents who live and work with him suddenly suffer. The attack resulted in a violent death.
It is impossible for a dreadnought to come to a planet alone without its retinue, but Xie Yuan doesn't know what kind of retinue it will be. After all, Ada only knows that it is a strange-shaped dreadnought.
"Hey, Second Lieutenant!" While he was thinking, someone suddenly called him. Xie Yuan looked up and saw that it was Ashley and her 212 team.
They should be patrolling the border at this time.
"Hello, sir!" Team 212 collectively saluted Xie Yuan.
"Ashley, hello everyone." Xie Yuan also returned the standard military salute.
After saluting each other, everyone became more casual. Ashley, who talked to me more, was the first to speak: "Sir, have you received the evacuation notice and the alert status upgrade notice?"
"Well, I received it." Xie Yuanxin said that not only did I receive it, but strictly speaking, I posted it, but there was no need to explain it to them in detail. "So how is the evacuation going?"
"It's almost completed! Heh, I don't know what the captain is thinking."
Ashley didn't understand the captain's weird idea: "There is no sign of the enemy at all, and I asked my colleagues at Radar that there is no trace of the unknown fleet at all. Why did the captain suddenly issue these orders?!"
Xie Yuan could only rub his nose. The source of this strange incident was himself, but he didn't have a good reason to show the evidence chain. He couldn't tell Ada who worked for the shadow agent, right? !
"Nilali, the maintenance worker at our base, has decided to sue the captain. She was forced to give up equipment worth hundreds of millions of credits and had to take refuge in the shelter with the nearby residents."
One of the soldiers began to tease the military staff who were angry because of the captain's strange behavior. "Many scientists said they wanted to cause trouble for him. One team of scientists even asked Team 232 to refuse to carry out evacuation instructions and insist on conducting research at the archaeological site."
"Haha," Xie Yuan said with a smile on his face, but his heart was full of laughter.
I felt pity for these scientists and a team of soldiers who were not afraid of death for their business, and I also regretted my reckless decisions based on whims.
Will the enemy come? Will the captain be unable to hold on and revoke the order? I'm afraid that if the enemy comes just after the cancellation, it will be very troublesome.
But what if they don’t come? So how to deal with this trouble?
However, some things really can't stand talking about, just say Cao Cao and Cao Cao will come.
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" The close-range defense artillery near Dixing Port suddenly began to roar.
And suddenly orange fireworks began to bloom above. Unfortunately, it was daytime, and the fireworks were not very beautiful.
"Isn't it?" Even though he had begun to anticipate the arrival of the enemy, subjectively, Xie Yuan's expression was still in disbelief, "Did the ground security forces set off big fireworks to celebrate in order to resist the order?"
"No! That's to prevent the enemy from airborne!" Ashley immediately corrected Xie Yuandao, regardless of the superior's superiority, but her face could not stop being horrified, "Oh my god, there is really an enemy invasion, why are the radar soldiers Things that you don’t even know, the captain will know in his office.”
"What are you waiting for!" Xie Yuan, who was choked, immediately reacted and ordered Team 212, "The enemy is attacking, prepare to attack!"
At this moment, everyone's nerves began to tighten, and they immediately began to run towards the fighting position.
Xie Yuan also started to follow them, but even though he had successfully sent out a distress signal, prepared an evacuation in time, and raised the alert level, his heart was beating more and more.
How dangerous! With such a slight difference, Xie Yuan almost failed in everything he did.
But Xie Yuan, who could do nothing now, could only fight with Unit 212. Fortunately, the biggest surprise of this raid had been solved by Xie Yuan, otherwise it would have been a massacre in a hurry.
Although there was nothing good he could do now, especially when Xie Yuan discovered the remains of the enemy that fell on the ground, he became a little more determined.
Unexpectedly, or in a sense, unexpectedly, the retinue brought by the Reaper turned out to be Geth!
What is this wave? Humans vs. robots?
