Chapter 513 Exploration by Exgeno Company (2) Beginning of Non-Lethal Combat
In fact, Solian is not a "simple" native creature, he is a plant life form with "telepathy" ability.
Thorian will spread spores, and any organism that inhales the spores will be controlled by it, including humans.
The monitors before the failure showed that nearly 85% of the residents of the entire Oriental Pearl Colony... they said that the experimental subjects were infected.
This also explains the suspicious behavior of all the residents of the Oriental Pearl Colony, and Exgeno Company deliberately sent the residents of the Oriental Pearl Colony into a pit of fire knowing that it was dangerous!
However, Lizbeth's own problem is also extremely complicated. As a research assistant in the biomedical engineering department of Exgeno Corporation, she became a research assistant because she was dissatisfied with the company's use of the Oriental Pearl Colony as an experimental observation object.
The comment of "stay on probation".
Thorian is hiding underground in the Oriental Pearl Colony. This is something Shepard needs to deal with more quickly after dealing with the geth in this building and the geth spaceship outside the building.
Because of the interference from the geth spaceship, Shepard doesn't even know what's going on with his Normandy?
The team continued the advancement operation. The geth are really an interesting race, because some of the geth actually "revere" this building... This is already a characteristic of organic creatures advocating the construction of spiritual civilization.
Alas, to be honest, if there hadn't been the Geth invasion of Yin Dian Prime, Xie Yuan would have really wanted to communicate with the mechanical race in this native world.
He really wants to know...what the world is like from the perspective of mechanical life? Unfortunately, this opportunity will not be realized in the short term.
It was a very simple matter to eliminate individual geth soldiers. Shepard took the lead, with Liana and Tali as support. Xie Yuan acted as a precision shooter to kill the rocket troopers and other geth subtypes carrying heavy firepower. Everything went as smoothly as a cloud.
.
But by the way, Exgeno is really an unscrupulous company with no humanity and only calculations.
Not only did they use the residents of the Pearl of the Orient colony as experimental subjects to settle above Sorian's place of survival and receive infection, they even considered silencing them after a possible out-of-control incident occurred!
It's a pity that the company is in trouble, and God is looking at it, and Shepard was also brought into trouble.
Moreover, people in the entire company are also very scattered. Previously, Gavin Hosler asked Shepard to arrange the collection of data stored in his personal office desk, and Shepard obtained it.
But after cracking another personal signal network, it was discovered that Gavin had secretly sold some of Sorian's samples to Cerberus!
This is not a small thing, Thorian spores have the ability to control people's minds and bodies - Cerberus definitely has the ambition to know slaves.
But this matter can only be investigated slowly afterwards. Shepard's first task now is to kill the geth ship that is "possessed" on the building.
Fortunately, the key to the same node is the shuttle storage warehouse, because the window here is movable and has a huge bite force, and it happens to be the main anchor base.
So when Shepard led them to climb to the shuttle storage warehouse, they directly operated the terminal where the shuttle docked at the gate.
"Kacha!" With a sound, the huge closing force of the door "bited off" the anchor hook of the spaceship on the top floor like a dragon-breaking stone.
This behavior also triggered a domino effect. The anchor hook, which could no longer support the weight, could no longer withstand the influence of gravity from the second floor, and began to break straight down.
Finally, the Geth spacecraft fell into the ground without any hindrance, making a loud noise.
"Boom!"
After the huge interference of the geth spaceship was dealt with, Tali shouted excitedly: "Great! The force field blocking the exit quickly disappeared, and now we can deal with Sorian."
Then, although there was no expression on Tali's face, her tone contained a feeling of relief: "I really hope that the whole spaceship is filled with those damn geth bastards!"
However, before everyone was ready to leave, the clown got in touch: "Repeat notification, the Normandy spacecraft control center is calling the landing team! Please reply when you receive it! Please reply when you receive it! Normandy is calling the landing team!
Lieutenant Colonel, please answer as soon as possible!"
By the way, this is the first time I've heard the clown be so anxious.
Shepard immediately answered the call: "Is that you? Clown? How is the situation there?"
The clown's response was a bit at a loss: "We are on level one alert, Major. Something seems to have happened to the local colonists. They are banging on the hull, trying to get into the ship. They are crazy!
It turned out that David, the patient we brought in, was also prone to going crazy, but Dr. Jakovos subdued him with anesthetic first."
Fortunately, it was impossible for the colonial residents to possess individual anti-ship weapons, and there was nothing serious inside. Shepard breathed a sigh of relief.
Therefore, no further drastic actions were ordered: "They will not cause substantial damage. We are returning at full speed and staying in position!"
The commander gave the order, so the clown naturally had no objections. In fact, he couldn't cause any trouble.
However, Shepard was not in a hurry to leave. She rushed to Lisbeth first: "I need some answers about Sorian. You definitely know much more than what you said."
Seeing this, Lisbeth also knew that her secret had been exposed, so she explained anxiously: "I...I was so scared. I wanted to stop this experiment, but they threatened me and told me that it would be the next experiment."
Taste.
When the geth attacked, I stayed behind and sent a message to the Colonial Office.
I wanted to tell them where to find this Thorian, but the power went out before I could send them a message."
Having said this, Lisbeth lowered her head in shame: "I...I never thought this would happen."
Shepard didn't blame her. This was human nature. Reporting the incident without getting involved was the most kind thing an ordinary person could do.
Next, Lisbeth revealed the location of Thorian, which was just below the Pearl of the Orient colony. When the geth attacked, the residents covered the entrance with cargo ship cabins.
And Saren's interest in Sorian... Lisbeth is attributed to Sorian's unique mind control ability.
But the subsequent information exploration could only be interrupted, because the clown called at this time, and the radar showed that a large wave of geth soldiers were already blocking the road.
There was no need to waste any more time. Since Lisbeth also insisted on coming along, Shepard didn't mind that Mako Shark had one more passenger.
But there is a saying. After the infantry tank rushed out of the garage, I realized that there were a lot of geth.
There are geth elites, geth rocket soldiers, and even two geth heavy armors... Fortunately, the performance of this mako is really good, and it is easy to dodge cannons; Shepard's cannon skills are excellent, and the bullets are perfect.
He finally broke through this strong line of defense, although when he got to the transfer station, he had to get off the bus with Shepard and everyone else, including Lisbeth.
Because of the relay station they passed before, the survivors of Exgeno caused some huge troubles.
Zheng lost control - he seemed to have seen the silence order from Exgeno's headquarters and wanted to execute it immediately.
I really don’t know what kind of background he has to make such a choice after the ghosts of the Citadel Council intervened.
Juliana did not agree at all, and even after being held hostage, she did not hesitate to use the radio to call the outside world to report Zheng's evil deeds.
By the way, Lizbeth is actually Juliana's daughter, and when Juliana was pushed by Zheng, Lizbeth, who was hiding on the side, immediately disagreed and stepped forward to defend her mother.
As a result, Shepard and the others were also exposed at the confrontation scene.
But Shepard did not panic. After she served as a ghost in the Citadel Council, her experience was quickly spread to the world.
Because of this, her reputation as a role model was very high. She gave Zheng an idea to slow him down, and Zheng also thought about it seriously: "The Oriental Pearl Colony is a border planet colony, and it has just independently repelled a Jie attack from an alien race.
Sri Lanka attack, this is a good thing that can be written into the company's record of achievement after operation."
Politics has always required compromise between both parties. Just like this time, the company behind Zheng He gained fame and fortune, and the residents of the Oriental Pearl Tower gained their lives - although Zheng still hoped to eradicate the residents and silence them.
But in the end, everyone reached a consensus-the residents can survive, but Solian must die!
Julianna and Lisbeth used some tricks to turn some chemical reagents into an anti-Tholian anesthetic gas grenade.
I just made 16 of them at once, enough to fire three rounds from the grenade launcher... The person who fired them could only be Shepard.
But this time Xie Yuan volunteered to take the lead. He took out a Burkov semi-automatic silenced anesthesia pistol from his "backpack": "I will stand at the front. If it is a single person, it will be better if I can use anesthesia bullets to shoot the head."
.
And you can cover me from medium to long range."
"When did you get such an antique?" Shepard grabbed the pistol and looked at it carefully with a look of disbelief. "Humanity has basically phased out weapons that use gunpowder as propellant since entering the year 2100."
Lisbeth and Juliana also looked at the gun in Shepard's hand with surprised eyes, never expecting that the real thing in the elementary school textbooks could actually reappear in the human world.
Zheng even looked at this thing with a greedy eye - if it was really an antique, it would be worth a lot of money!
But Zheng was disappointed, because Xie Yuan replied: "I made this by myself using multi-purpose tools during off-duty hours. It is not a modern antique."
Shepard also weighed the material. It was indeed made of modern high-strength polymer, and he flicked open the magazine unfamiliarly - the bullet was also a special anesthetic bullet made of modern materials.
Shepard returned the pistol to Xie Yuan and asked in confusion: "Ashley will scold you to death if he knows that this is what you spend your time fishing for! But what's the use of it? They also have guns. Once
When they find you, they can pull the trigger twice as fast as you pull the trigger."
"Indeed, using a tranquilizer pistol is an operation that tests your eyesight and premonition, but I think you can try it."
Xie Yuan is more insistent on this: "You know, since we entered the 22nd century, non-lethal weapons have almost never been developed - which means that if you hit, you will die.
It just so happens that the colonial residents have no money to buy shields, which also means that this gun has one last use... Let it be tried, I am willing to trust it and my own craftsmanship."
Shepard was also silent. It is indeed the case. Since entering the Citadel era, weapons have been almost non-lethal and lethal. It can only be fatal, because most non-lethal weapons have no effect on existing clothing. A little bit of lethality can't even make it incapacitated.
This is Xie Yuan's personal subjective wish and confidence in his own abilities. Shepard is also willing to take a gamble: "Then you have to think carefully. Bullets can hardly penetrate clothes, so you must explode every bullet." Boss...do you have this confidence?"
This is not a problem for Xie Yuan: "I can even call myself the gun king in this aspect!"
"Hoho!" Shepard laughed angrily, "I didn't even say anything. Why are you so arrogant? One day, I will definitely compete with you."
