After receiving the news, the senior members of Luo Che Biology rushed to the side hall next to the conference room, as if the sky was falling.
But they are not qualified to go to the main hall to discuss matters. Now, with the rapid development of the group and the relationship with the New World Bank, Luo Yue, the chairman, has become more and more worthy of his reputation.
At this moment, Boss Luo and the chaebol heirs who came out of the basement are initiating various relationships to collect relevant information about the "Nemesis Project."
Miss Celine thought to herself, "If Mr. Lu decides to go there, I will definitely follow him."
Lu Li's status in her heart was equal to that of a god, and he was awe-inspiring in terms of power and other aspects.
On the side, Will paid the same attention. Although he had never seen Lu Li attack with all his strength, he was somewhat confident and hoped to make the relationship between the two parties further.
"Your Excellency, I did find out about a project called Nemesis, and the content is basically consistent with what Professor Taylor said."
"Basic?"
Lu Li looked at Viola. This girl seemed to have good channels and was always the first to get the news.
"The first ring plan is actually not taken seriously. The so-called medium attack ships have been in service for decades and are barely usable."
With that said, Viola projected the specific data and showed it to everyone.
[The Dauntless medium-sized attack ship is 230 meters long and 32 meters wide. It is equipped with a second-generation intelligent auxiliary system and is driven by nuclear fusion.
The weapon system has undergone small-scale modifications. On the basis of having one main gun and two secondary guns, the light weapons module has been strengthened...]
Second generation assistance system?
If I remember correctly, the heavy-duty scientific research ships Black Prince and Fire Type both use third-generation intelligent assistance systems.
"This set of equipment was provided by the military, and it was also proposed by them to conduct detection operations in advance."
After sensing Lu Li's doubts, Xilin explained: "The Alliance forces are all on the front line and are responsible for guarding the outposts. They have no right to interfere in planetary affairs. They are not very powerful. They are supported by taxes paid by major companies."
The army is weak and is only responsible for security work. The rest depends on the major chaebols.
If someone who was new here knew about it, they would definitely think this structure was strange, but because of his rich experience, Lu Li quickly accepted the fact.
"I think detective work is necessary."
Finally, with everyone watching, Lu Li made his decision in a deep voice, "But with only a dozen escapees and some spaceships with old equipment, it will be difficult to complete the mission."
Very obvious hint.
After listening, everyone had mixed reactions.
Will, Miss Celine and others behaved extremely radically and immediately decided to follow, treating this action as an adventure and an adventure to show their loyalty.
"Last month, Roche Biologics just placed an order to build a large fleet. The deposit has been paid, but it will take at least six months to complete the delivery."
It is naturally impossible for Luo Yue to go to the battlefield, not to mention that he has not yet been injected with the serum. Even if he was injected, he would not risk his life.
This guy has a very clear position for himself. He stays behind and provides various resources.
Therefore, he said in a deep voice: "If you plan to join that plan, the company can send all the attack ships there."
"At the same time, we will also purchase some advanced spacecraft from other companies at high prices as soon as possible."
Funds and connections, these were things that had been promised, and it was finally time to fulfill them, and Luo Yue proved with actions that he was fulfilling them.
At this time, Miss Celine said: "Our family holds the ownership of eleven living planets. There are a large number of attack ships parked in the airport, and some of them can be mobilized."
After officially becoming the heir to the family, she became more confident in speaking.
"There is a living planet under our family's name not far from the frontline outpost. There is a fleet stationed there and can be mobilized at any time."
Will was the second to express his attitude.
The same is true for several other young men. If it is as promised, Lu Li can immediately form an invincible fleet and go to the depths of the starry sky to fight.
It can only be said that capital is the mainstream force in this world.
The military can only provide one old attack ship and an automatic reconnaissance aircraft with unknown conditions, but this group of young chaebol heirs, patchwork together, can provide more than a dozen new attack ships.
Although they are mainly light and medium-sized, there are indeed a lot of them. Counting a large main battleship provided by Luo Che Biology, this fleet can definitely move sideways in the galaxy.
I just don’t know what the so-called Zerg...is like?
Generally speaking, the technological level of the Zerg is extremely low, it can even be said that there is no development, almost no tools are used, and individuals perform different functions through physiological variation.
If you want to conduct space navigation... considering its technological level, this is simply impossible to achieve, because it is difficult for the Zerg to develop a space vehicle in the conventional sense.
Professor Taylor seems to have said that after the frontline outpost was hit by a meteorite, a large number of insects appeared a few days later.
If I remember correctly, there is a type of Zerg that shoots spores into the universe, and after the spores are attached to small meteorites, they will be shot to designated areas.
Of course, one cannot speculate on the Zerg race based on subjective assumptions without any evidence.
You know, some Zerg can directly open "wormholes" through supernatural powers and conduct long-distance interstellar voyages. The methods are beyond the scope of ordinary science.
And two hours later.
The two groups of people met again, and the atmosphere was particularly solemn.
The professor regarded this as a meeting that would change the destiny of mankind, and he knew very well how important the prior investigation work was.
"This is more detailed information about the Nemesis Project."
"The frontline outpost provided a piece of image data. After more than two thousand years, we once again encountered the Zerg."
"Have they evolved compared to before?"
"I don't know. The information about that period has either been lost or has been secretly kept by major families. Of course, the scientific research institute has also saved some."
Speaking of this, Professor Taylor looked solemn and embarrassed. He was a genetics expert, not a biology expert. In fact, even professors from various universities knew very little about the Zerg.
"The specific situation can only be known from the frontline outposts. Those defenders can be said to be the people who know the Zerg best in the entire galaxy."
"All right."
Lu Li nodded. Although he was very curious about whether this professor would be hired as the project leader, he would rather take a look at the video data than dwell on such trivial matters.
Perhaps the bug that launched the attack was within its own range.
After a while, the light curtain flashed.
The desert is filled with sand and dust, and countless black shadows can be vaguely seen moving in the distance. They are getting closer and closer, and in preparation, they are getting closer and closer to the monitoring equipment installed on the outpost.
Mantis?
There are so many legs.
Looking at the suspended simulated light screen, Lu Li fell into deep thought. He had seen this kind of creature before.
I don’t know what the official organization of the Nemesis Galaxy calls it. In the anatomy class, this thing is called [Warrior].
"This monster's exoskeleton can withstand temperatures exceeding seven hundred degrees Celsius and can withstand pulse guns of most calibers."
The professor who had watched the video material countless times beforehand explained, "In order to deal with it, it usually takes three to five elite warriors who are not afraid of death."
Lu Li did not take this creature lightly. He carefully watched the tragedy that happened at the outpost and pressed the pause button from time to time.
But after hearing Professor Taylor's words, he couldn't help but ask: "Elite warrior? How to define it."
"I haven't broken free from the genetic lock, but I have experienced at least three cell enhancements. I am proficient in various weapons, and my psychological quality is far beyond ordinary people."
Will, who has always been arrogant, put away his pride. He can easily kill the escapers with his bare hands. In the same way, the so-called elite warriors are still vulnerable.
However, there are so many of these large yellow and black bugs with limbs as sharp as scissors in the video that they are impossible to count.
As long as you have some brains, you can see at a glance that they are just basic troops.
Abbreviation: cannon fodder.
Ants gnaw dead elephants.
This ancient proverb has been forgotten with the passage of time, but its meaning has been remembered by everyone and passed down from generation to generation with similar sentences.
After the double blow from Lu Li and the aliens, Will became particularly clear-headed. He was not so arrogant that he thought he could annihilate tens of thousands of Zerg with an army of one man.
Must bring weapons of mass destruction.
In addition, before fighting head-on, the ground must be cleared with heavy firepower to avoid being entangled by cannon fodder.
"Have you collected any specific information on this monster?"
Lu Li suddenly said, even if the military had never encountered a warrior before, they should have collected relevant information after experiencing this raid.
Unless the intelligent system fails at that time, it cannot perform autonomous analysis.
"Of course." Professor Taylor, who was in working mode, was extremely professional. He quickly picked out one document from the thick stack of documents.
[Basic Zerg]
[Height: 3.0 meters to 3.2 meters]
[Length: 4.9 meters to 5.3 meters]
[Weight: 530 kg ~ 550 kg]
[Narrow brain, suspected of mental retardation]
[There are exoskeleton sharp spines on the forefoot leg segments and tibia segments, which are highly aggressive]
[Moving speed: 0 kilometers per hour ~ 350 kilometers per hour]
[The jaws are sharp and the bite force exceeds 2000 kilograms]
[The limbs are sharp, unit area...]
Except for the inconsistency in the name, the other characteristics are almost completely consistent with the creature encountered in the dissecting room.
Therefore, the so-called basic Zerg are actually warriors, and the information that followed once again confirmed Lu Li's guess.
【Jumping Zerg】
[Height: 3.1 meters ~ 3.2 meters]
[Length: 5.0 meters ~ 5.1 meters]
[Weight: 485kg~515kg]
[Narrow brain, suspected mental retardation, extremely low ground speed, negligible]
[The limbs are stronger than the basic Zerg and can jump easily. According to the information collected so far, the maximum jumping height this creature can reach is: 78.64 meters]
[It has three pairs of transparent wings and has a medium flying speed. According to the information collected so far, the maximum flying speed this creature can reach is: 230ms (instantaneous), and the average flying speed is: 412kmh]
[The attack method is the same as that of the basic Zerg, using sharp limbs and jaws as weapons...]
[Note: It is suspected that you can use your wings to cut off the torso of hostile creatures by sliding down at high speed]
The Zerg army that attacked the frontline outpost was composed of these two creatures, but they all matched the names in Lu Li's memory:
Warrior, jumper.
"Did the forward outpost fall? What was the final result?"
After the holographic projection went out, Lu Li asked the last question.
"After nearly two hours of fierce fighting, reinforcements arrived. Two fifty-man squadrons, under the cover of firepower from light battleships, wiped out the entire Zerg vanguard army."
"And more than half of the troops stationed on that asteroid were lost."
After saying that, Professor Taylor sighed, whether he was sighing for the victims or worried about the situation.
Boss Luo, who had watched everything now, could not help but sigh at the magic of fate.
When he and Lu Li were negotiating on board the Tinder, the other party's bargaining chip was this professor, and now this feared being actually wanted something from our company.
"I would like to join this project."
At this time, Lu Li's voice sounded and echoed in the conference room. To Professor Taylor's ears, it was like the sound of nature.
The military attaches great importance to this mission because they are at the forefront and have a general understanding of the dangers of the Zerg. However, the chaebols are different. The comfortable life of more than 2,000 people makes them care more about how to expand their business territory rather than foreign wars. .
Even though the Nemesis plan was proposed, it was extremely simple and crude——
All the large groups in the alliance were united to form a very large fleet and headed to the blockade, waiting for a signal from the human civilization on the other side.
If conditions are favorable, take the initiative to launch an attack.
If the Zerg is strong, then passively defend and buy time for the major planets to enter a state of war.
It is for this reason that the military has turned its attention to the Institute of Genetics, or to be precise, Professor Taylor, who is responsible for training highly talented escapees, hoping that he can help.
"This is the best news I have heard in these days." A smile appeared on the professor's face.
Beru can testify that the teacher has indeed not smiled for a long time, but while he was happy, he was also somewhat unconvinced:
There is obviously something fishy about the Tinder crash case, and it would be unfair to expose it so easily.
Unfortunately, this is the reality.
No matter what happened on the Huozhong heavy-duty scientific research ship, it will always remain a mystery as long as Lu Li or Luo Yue are unwilling to make it public.
"Professor, I have something to declare in advance."
Lu Li said as he packed up the information and prepared to read it in detail later.
"After joining the Nemesis Project, I will not take on the role of charging into the battlefield lightly."
Professor Taylor seemed to have expected this, and asked: "Do you want to be a decision-maker?"
"That's right."
Lu Li answered with confidence. After all, before the meeting, he told the other party about the resources at his disposal.
As the main combat force in the early stages of the war, participating in decision-making is not only not excessive, but also natural.
"I will judge whether to participate in the operation and whether to go deep into the Zerg forces based on the situation."
"Can."
The professor seemed to be making a three-part agreement with Lu Li. After happily agreeing to the request, he immediately warned: "It's just that no matter what you do, you must discuss it with us in advance and never act alone."
"good."
the other side.
Kamio-san, who was playing a new game, began to draw the third card.
"The Hanged Man turns out to be the Death Card."
