The huge pale blue planet occupies most of the field of vision below. [Read the full text] The atmosphere surrounding the planet Wormel is now emitting a hazy light under the illumination of the stars, like a halo surrounding the planet.
The image of the nuclear bomb exploding is like a slow motion scene from a silent movie.
First, a brighter point of light appeared under the halo of the atmosphere. Then the light spot began to expand in a circle along the arc-shaped surface of the planet, until it hit the top of the atmosphere, and then began to spread around...
This was Annie's former cabin, and now Shepard stood quietly in front of the porthole, staring at the explosion that occurred on the planet, and the bright light made her face pale. Immediately, the Normandy accelerated out of the planet's orbit, leaving the explosion of the nuclear bomb far behind.
Shepard closed his eyes and lowered his head, resting his head on the porthole. In an instant, all the endless memories of Annie and Annie came to his mind! The tears fell down little by little.
"Shepard...", the door to the room was pushed open, letting bright light shine into the dim cabin. The Asari Liara stood at the door of the cabin. She stared at Shepard's back hiding in the darkness, and called Shepard worriedly.
"I'm sorry," she heard Shepard's calm reply. There was no passion in his voice, and there was only a sense of grief that could not be greater than the death of one's heart. "Please leave me alone for a while..."
Liara stood there in despair for a while, then finally closed the door and left.
In the darkness, Shepard opened the Omni-Tool. She hesitated for a long time, and after several deletions, she told Li Huamei the news about Anne through a letter. After all, there are three of them. She was once her best friend, and she didn't want Li Huamei to learn that Annie had died only from the battle report... However, Li Huamei's reply contained only one cold and decisive word. "Got it." Instantly penetrated Shepard's steel shell again...
She just stayed in Annie's cabin quietly until evening, when she opened the door and walked out.
At this moment, Shepard had tidied up his appearance and seemed to have recovered. Her eyes are still sharp, and there is a smile on her lips... Only those who really understand her will feel an inexplicable chill in their hearts when they look at Sister Xue at this moment!
"Joker." Shepard said into the microphone, "Seal Annie's cabin. From now on, no one is allowed to enter... This is the highest level order."
Not only that, Shepard's hand was pressed against the cabin door. After a few seconds, the entire hatch was heated to an extremely high temperature by supernatural power. It even began to emit a dark red hot light! The half-melted edge of the hatch glued the gap between the alloy wall and the hatch. When her hand left the hatch, the cooling metal solution completely solidified the door and wall into one.
"As you command, Commander." Joker replied. "There is another bad news, Shepard. The congressmen are waiting for you in the communication room... They want you to explain the behavior of detonating a nuclear bomb in the World God Star Territory. It is said that those bastards in the World God Star Territory are ready to make a move now. The Citadel's The politicians believe that you are the cause of the current tension, and their order to the Normandy is to return to the Citadel as quickly as possible... Do we want to obey?"
"Haha~" Shepard smiled, rolled up his cuffs slowly, and fixed an alloy wrist blade on his left forearm. If there are members of the Normandy Marine Corps. You can definitely recognize it, it is a weapon commonly used by Annie. I don’t know why, but this time Annie attacked in full force. But he kept this wrist blade.
"Kacha!" Shepard tried clenching his left fist, and a sharp dark gold blade popped out from the outside of his wrist! No one knows that this is the sharp edge of a fine gold alloy, which is truly indestructible and can cut through iron like mud. Shepard retracted the blade, then put down his sleeves to cover the alloy wrist blade.
"I won't go to the communications room. Please tell the distinguished congressmen for me..." Shepard smiled and ordered into the phone, "Let them die!"

In the sky. A large number of dark clouds were produced by the exploding and evaporating ocean, thickly blocking all sunlight. The occasional drizzle. The radiation content in it can easily kill all living things.
The desolate land is full of ruins and ruins! If you look closely, you will find that those things that look like construction waste are not actually materials such as masonry and concrete, but broken metal! All are high-strength alloys! Moreover, on the surfaces of these metals, traces of semi-melting and then condensation can be seen with the naked eye.
In the center of the ruins is a large pit that sinks downward. Its depth is only about a few dozen meters, and it looks like it is pressing down on the surface of the earth. The shape of the circular pit is very regular. Moreover, around the large crater, the debris was distributed in an obvious radial pattern.
A huge egg-shaped battleship broke through the clouds and landed towards the ruins. Unlike ordinary spaceships, when this massive battleship, which was comparable to a cruiser, landed, it did not cause common horrific scenes such as static electricity emissions, effect field air explosions, or even tornadoes.
This huge battleship was suspended in the sky above the ruins. It circled around with impossibly dexterous speed, and then stopped on top of a ruin. As the hatch opened, countless giant metal spiders poured out of the battleship! These spiders swarmed onto the ruins in dense numbers, and then the metal ruins began to disintegrate like collapse, and began to fall at a speed visible to the naked eye.
After finding something, the thousands of metal spiders suddenly spread apart, revealing an egg-shaped white ball of light in the center of the ruins that had been decomposed into another huge pit.
The ball of light was almost completely transparent. Anne had her eyes closed and her whole body was suspended in the center of the ball of light. Her lips were slightly pursed, as if she was still sleeping soundly. Milky white rays of light grew out from the shoulder blades on both sides of her back, and then entangled and stretched to the left and right sides, forming two huge wings, firmly protecting her in the middle.
After confirming Annie's safety, the metal spiders got under the light ball one by one, then crossed their arms and legs, supporting each other like a stack of arhats, slowly lifted the light ball, and sent it into the spacecraft hatch overhead. .

"Is it worth your efforts?" When Annie walked out of the repair warehouse, Lu Yuan was already holding a bathrobe in his hand, standing next to her like a r.
Annie was really adventurous this time. She had a ring with "teleportation" that could leave the battlefield at any time, but she didn't use it. Instead, he chose to use his angel incarnation to withstand the nuclear blast! It really scared Lu Yuan. To know whether the incarnation of an angel can withstand a close-range nuclear explosion, this has never happened before and cannot be predicted or tested. Who knows!
"Of course it's worth it!" Annie pulled her yukata over and covered her naked body. "I must definitely die on the battlefield and stab little Xue Xue in the heart several times. Now... let that little bitch cry! Oh hahaha~"
"It's so fake...Shepard has already fainted in the toilet from crying," Lu Yuan sweated looking at Anne who was smiling like a queen, "This style doesn't suit you at all."
"And~" Annie rolled her eyes, relaxed her body and leaned against the wall opposite Lu Yuan, and finally said helplessly. "Isn't it all because of you!...The mess up front made Shepard's mentality completely wrong! Without blood feud, how can a hero explode? What's more...don't you think that if you want to be a hero, you have to bear a little burden? What's the matter?"
"That's right." Lu Yuan could only admit that Annie was right.
As the two people talked about, Shepard was the only candidate as the "savior", but she has not yet entered the state.
Originally, witnessing the destruction of the Eden colony by Saren should have been a good psychological stimulus for Sister Xue - but Lu Yuan, who was very cunning, had been digging holes here for several years, killing Saren in one fell swoop. Lun, the Reaper, and his tens of millions of geth brothers were half crippled by the trap! Sister Xue and the others were scolded by Colonel Mike Harovich, and then left in despair. The whole process was a bottle of soy sauce.
Then there is the political state of the Citadel. According to the original history, the political situation of the Star Alliance in the Citadel at this time should be quite bad - most races felt that humans had risen too fast, gained too much, and occupied their space, so they were quite unfriendly. Moreover, the Citadel Council also felt that humans were out of control and too "impatient"... Shepard was despised everywhere in the Citadel, and his identity as a "ghost" had to go through a lot of hard work before he was reluctantly removed from the Council. Got it.
But now, this situation has been completely reversed with the joint efforts of Star Alliance, Lu Yuan and Cerberus!
The emergence of heroes such as Li Huamei and Shepard, and the vigorous publicity of their deeds, have effectively shaped a new image of mankind; while "Zhao Min Culture" and movies and TV series produced by Lu Yuan have become popular in the galaxy, making mankind's Civilization has been widely recognized and has become an important part of the pan-galactic system; finally, and most importantly, the Star Alliance has massively decommissioned and destroyed as many as thirty old Star Alliance cruisers! It highlights the great courage and non-striving for hegemony, and completely reverses the unfavorable political situation of the Star Alliance!
Therefore, this time Sister Xue was appointed as the "ghost", and everyone was happy to make it happen, so it almost happened naturally...
When Lu Yuan did these things and plans, he never considered Sister Xue's feelings - he always regarded Shepard as just an ordinary person, and never really pinned the hope of mankind's victory over the Reapers on her. Especially when you know that Sister Xue has a "system".
As a result, the situation has become more embarrassing now. Saren is about to lead the geth fleet to attack the Citadel, and the first head-to-head confrontation is about to come, but Sister Xue has not yet entered the state she should be in - to put it bluntly, it is actually a state of desperate sacrifice... She is the protagonist. The haloed Sister Xue, the more she tries to die, the less likely she is to die, and she will also achieve great achievements.
So, Anne was right.
The companions who died in the attack on Wormel Base were the third and final opportunity for Shepard to mature. Serious illness requires strong medicine, and Anne was right to fill it in herself. To be continued
