The "Overlord" Reaper battleship and the Geth troop transport fleet are hidden in the asteroid belt in the "Voyager" system.
Their bows are facing two astronomical units away, the emerald green planet wandering among the stars. This is their goal, the human colony-Eden Planet.
"Commander, I have inquired about the patrol information of the nearby star field in the military record of the Citadel... Use your ghost authority. We are sure that no fleet will pass here within 72 hours. In addition, the fleet that is about to arrive recently The Waller trading ship was temporarily detained at the Nick Space Station under an excuse." An Asari entered the bridge of the battleship and came behind Saren and said.
She quietly observed Captain Saren, who was still standing with his back to the visitors as usual. Since boarding this strange battleship, it seems that Commander Saren spent most of his time standing in front of the porthole, facing out the window and meditating.
"Commander, our next goal is..." After about a minute of silence, the Asari had to take the initiative to ask.
"Go to Eden. There is a message left by the Protheans there." Saren's hoarse voice suddenly sounded, interrupting her words. The turian's pale fingers clicked on the holographic screen next to the straight "beacon" stacked with the goods. "I feel it will tell me clues about the 'Holy Path'!"
"That location is at the airport outside the Star Alliance colony. It would be difficult for us to obtain Prothean artifacts without alarming humans."
"Human..." Saren's eyes reflected on the porthole. Became gloomy. "That stupid self-righteous nation, I will teach them a lesson... Let the Geth not hold back and directly attack the human colonies! Destroy every living thing in sight."
"Commander. Although we all don't like humans, attacking the colony will make things get out of hand!" the Asari retorted excitedly.
"It has nothing to do with my dislike of humans, although I like killing them!" Saren's voice was like metal friction, slow and rough. "Before we find the 'Holy Path', we cannot be exposed, including my 'Overlord' battleship! So anyone who has seen me and this ship must be exterminated! Let the geth do it...this is an order!"
"Yes, Commander." The Asari could only salute helplessly. Turned around and left the bridge.
After the asari left, the empty bridge fell into silence again. Saren stood upright by the window, looking out, as if he would stand like this forever. After a long time. Suddenly a huge voice came from every corner and every device on the bridge, "She is very dissatisfied with your order."
"I don't need her satisfaction," Saren's yellow eyes shrank, "I just need her to obey orders!"
"I can help you and make her... more obedient." The voice seduced.
"No need! I think you still remember our consensus... you will not educate my men - unless I order you to do so!" Saren warned sharply!
"Haha~ Yes, that is our consensus." The voice was like a huge creature speaking, slow, roaring, and full of oppression. "But these are not necessary at all. Life will eventually be destroyed!"
"No, you have failed too. You are not always right!" Saren said excitedly into the air. "You have lost control of the Citadel, haven't you? Otherwise you wouldn't need the Prothean's 'Holy Path' to enter the Citadel. This is proof!"
"It was just a small mistake."
"I will prove that creatures and reapers should be complementary to each other! We still have the value of existence, and your goals need our help!"
"We'll see." The "Overlord" Reaper battleship finally said.

"This is Busujima Saeko, my assistant and secretary. This is Tully Zola, our companion. He is also the mechanic I found." Lu Yuan took Tully back to his residence, where he was A big house bought in the Eden Colony (brought him a green card. After entering the door, he happened to see Saeko Busujima wearing a maid outfit to greet him.
Lu Yuan hurriedly introduced them to each other, and then handed Tali over to Busujima Saeko for placement. He took off his coat and shirt, tossed them aside, and headed straight to the bathroom. "Buddha, I feel like I have been soaked in alcohol for three years..."
It can be said that since time traveling, Lu Yuan has always been very self-controlled and has never drunk so much wine, even in the Caribbean where alcoholics are everywhere. Not to mention those named "wine", which are actually completely synthetic chemicals that stimulate the taste, and there is no trace of ethanol in them.
The reason why I ended up getting so drunk was partly because of the atmosphere... I was surrounded by modern people. There were no dwarves, orcs, paladins, pirates from the 16th century, or monsters who had lived for thousands of years but claimed to be 17 years old... This It made him feel as if he had returned to the time before time travel, very comfortable. And...it's a moment of relaxation before the war! Now he feels that after waking up, he has thrown away all thoughts and is extremely energetic!
"Um, Mr. Lu..." Saeko Busujima shouted in vain behind him, but he could only watch Lu Yuan rush into the bathroom.
"Ha, forget it... they will get back together sooner or later." Busujima Saeko gave up her efforts in frustration. She tried hard to sort out her emotions, then turned to Tali Zola with a smile and said, "Lu Jun told me that you would come, but I didn't expect it to be so late... I will take you to see your room first. ?I think you need to take a rest first."
Saeko noticed that Tali was carrying a huge backpack, which looked very heavy, and a sense of exhaustion was lingering around her (taking care of the sequelae of drunkenness), so she immediately suggested to let Tali take a rest first.
For the time being, Lu Yuan's new crew members can only stay on the ground, because the "New Alona" has been loaned out, also to prepare for the coming war. According to Lu Yuan's arrangement, it is best for all the engineers on the mother ship to take a "travel leave" in rotation before the war - use the best ship to take them to the best places, come A most luxurious trip!
Perhaps it is because all the foreshadowings that can be laid for the upcoming war have been exhausted. When it comes to the showdown, Lu Yuan is not 100% sure...
"Then...is that work clothes? Can I not wear such clothes?!" Tali, who was walking behind Busujima Saeko, couldn't help stumbling and asked in a low voice when she was being taken upstairs. "I don't mean anything else! But you know, I am a 'Qurian' (gestures a quotation mark with both hands - the kind who will die without armor." Well, Tully was shocked. He even doesn’t hesitate to complain to himself.
Quarians have lived on spaceships for a long time and have low immunity. They need to wear armor at all times to isolate the internal and external environment.
But Tali said it in such a hurry because she found that Busujima Saeko's dress looked very beautiful, but the skirt was so short that it was still above the knees! It can only cover the buttocks... Especially when going upstairs, the lace maid skirt has undulating hills, revealing the vague whiteness and delicateness, and the long legs wrapped in stockings, making Busujima Saeko's whole body... Exuding fatal charm!
Even though she was still a big girl, she was firmly attracted to her! But if she were to wear this outfit, Tali felt like she would jump into the engine out of shame! As for infections…oh, yes, there are infections!
"I didn't know that Mr. Lu would bring guests back today. This is...this is a costume specially worn for Mr. Lu." Busujima Saeko explained a little shyly. If her father found out, he would probably jump off the Ariake Technology building.
"I understand!" Tali suddenly realized, "It turns out to be that kind of 'secretary' (gestures a quotation mark with both hands again... Ah, sorry! I... didn't mean anything else! I was saying stupid things again... I'm sorry!"
"You're actually right, that's the kind of secretary." Busujima Saeko admitted frankly without any hesitation. Anyway, the days of not being ashamed or ashamed have been long, and sooner or later you will know.
Tali opened her mouth, not knowing what to say - of course, Master Lu's impression in her eyes plummeted! At this time, a loud "boom" suddenly came from downstairs, and after the explosion... there seemed to be the sound of submachine gun fire! "What, what's going on?!" Tully looked downstairs nervously. The location where the sound came from seemed to be in the direction of the bathroom where Lu Yuan went just now? !
"Don't worry, it's just a local conflict. It will calm down after a while." Busujima Saeko still smiled calmly, with perfect etiquette. Don't use diplomatic words for me!
Tully suddenly realized something. Is it too dangerous to live here? ! "I...shouldn't I live here? In fact, I can stay in a hotel. Uncle Carl gave me some stars..."
"You don't have to mind it too much, it's just that there was some noise today, and I'm usually quiet." Saeko Busujima comforted, "The space on the second floor belongs to you only. You'll have your meals downstairs, and Mr. Lu won't come up. We know you're coming. , in addition to the bedrooms, there is also a large data room and tool room, all specially prepared for you, where you can find information about the ships we will serve."
After sending Tully to the door, the fighting downstairs seemed to have stopped.
"Then, please have a good rest first. If you need anything, you can contact me at any time." Busujima Saeko opened the multi-tool, gently touched Tali's arm, and exchanged contact information. "keelahselai (see you in my hometown)"
"Thank you for your blessing, we have gathered at home!" Tali laughed.
Yes, this sentence reminded her - no matter what, Lu Yuan was the great benefactor who saved the Kuili race! He is a person that many quarians have never met but have considered him a friend throughout their lives. However, from beginning to end, Lu Yuan never made any request to the Quarians... except for Tali Zola to come to his ship to help.
Then, let’s help him properly next!
