Chapter 519: Wormel Shows His Enemy, Contradictions Emerge
As a daredevil who offended everyone to death, Saren was really stupid, bringing many dark things to the surface, and also defrauded many allies.
But if everything was slowly formed because Saren came into contact with the Overlord, it means that the Overlord still has the ability to "drain" people's intelligence.
How scary was Saren twenty years ago?
With a little trick, mankind's painstaking efforts to break into ghosts came to nothing, and suppressed mankind's entry into the ghost establishment for twenty years; through collusion between officials and businessmen, a large amount of wealth was obtained, and in this way, he gained control over the entire galaxy.
Influence, so that places in the entire galaxy that are under the influence of the Citadel Council have their own safe houses and spheres of influence.
If he hadn't gone crazy after finding the overlord in the later period, to be honest, Saren would have been more difficult to deal with than the Batarians who were isolated from the Citadel family. Because as long as he held the "Ghost", the banner of the king's destiny, or
Shang Fang Bao Jian, any enemy of his who wants to deal with him must first obtain the consent of the parliament.
Fortunately, the overlord made him lose this crucial amulet.
And the Citadel will never tolerate her traitors - at the border of the Citadel Council, a group of Salarian special forces quickly informed the Council of Shepard through a secret message and went to investigate.
But there was a scene that made people laugh or cry at the time, that is, the Salarian special service team had no idea that when their "urgent" encrypted phone call came to the congressman's desk... there was no content at all!
Congressman Salarian speculated that it was because they were sending the message in a place with weak signal transmission capabilities, so there was only a current signal.
But since this is an urgent secret message, it means there must be something urgent - so this is just the right time for Shepard, who is eager to find clues about Saren, to go and verify it in person.
Not to mention, as soon as the Normandy flew into Wormel's orbit, it easily received the electrical signal from the Salarian special service team.
But the trouble is, we still don’t know the specific content of this distress signal.
Moreover, Caiden, as a radar observer, also discovered that there were a large number of defense towers along the way, which meant that Normandy could not hide at low altitude for the time being.
So Shepard directly issued an attack order: "Airdrop the mako sharks, and we will attack them from the front and wipe them out."
As a second tank driver proven in previous operations, Xie Yuan was assigned as the driver of the Mako Shark as expected - the first one was of course the current leader, Shepard.
But I have to say...Wormel is really a very important place to Saren.
Because on the way from the landing site to the temporary station of the Salarian special service team, Mako Shark encountered three iron gate fortresses!
There is a winding mountain road between the two adjacent fortresses, and there are a large number of geth colossi, rocket soldiers and snipers in the middle - the firepower is so extensive and intense that it almost destroys the mako sharks along the way.
!
Such tight defense shows the vital importance of Wormel to Saren... The Salarian special team really found something extraordinary this time.

Vomel is a lush planet whose vast oceans and orbital location in the Life Zone created a broad, moist, tropical equatorial zone.
But the only thing preventing its colonization was the unstable political environment.
The Citadel Council has repeatedly publicly negotiated with criminals and despicable dictatorships near the World God system to settle Vomel. However, they have failed due to the political instability caused by the frequent turnover of power.
As a result, the Citadel Council had no choice but to shelve Wormel's colonization plan and wait for a significant political change to occur.
But judging from the deep defense system established by the Geth here today, Saren is probably adding fuel to the fire...step by step to prevent interested people from visiting.
While trying his best to protect himself, Xie Yuan also tried his best to repair the Mako Shark while Shepard's ground team was clearing the Iron Gate Fortress, and then rushed the infantry tank to the Salarian special team.
temporary garrison.
The Normandy also took this opportunity to land near the camp, but now that there are wolves in front and tigers behind, the Normandy will not be able to take off again in the short term.
The military force deployed by the salarians on this border planet belongs to the intelligence department, called the Special Services Group (stg).
This is a pre-response organization that advocates resolving crises before they occur, and its style is more like John Taurus's MI6.
The agents of the special service team are divided into independent teams to perform dangerous tasks such as counter-terrorism, infiltration, reconnaissance, assassination and sabotage. At any time, there are more than ten teams operating secretly in the Jieshen system to drive a wedge between different factions.
One of the reasons why Xie Yuan didn't want to cause too much trouble in the World God Galaxy was because of them - civilian analysts also noticed that the heroes in the World God Galaxy often died suddenly, and it was basically their fault without any accident.
Xie Yuan is not afraid of them, but he really doesn't want to create too much trouble with them - unless he can wipe out the Salarians at once, he must keep it secret to guard against subsequent secret revenge.
It's better to avoid its sharp edges.
The unit that carried out this reconnaissance operation this time was the third reconnaissance brigade of stg, headed by a major named Kirach.
However, even the STG reconnaissance team will encounter the most common situation in human covert operations - the information sent is misunderstood by the leadership.
He thought the reinforcements coming would be a fleet, but what turned out to be just a reconnaissance frigate that could land freely on the planet!
According to his original words: "That is repeating our mission."
Moreover, the current situation of this reconnaissance team in Wormel is not good - so far, they have lost half of their men.
Fortunately, this is indeed an important base of operations for Saren - I don't know if Saren is here, but there is a research site here, and the intercepted radio also has the name Saren.
Now that he knew it was a very important place to Saren, especially a research base of operations, Shepard felt it was worth it.
She just wanted to know more information: "What is Saren studying?"
But Kirach didn't give any better news: "He's using that facility to produce an army of krogan."
Okay! This Saren is really a little clever guy. The Citadel Council banned the research of Reknai, so he secretly intercepted the Queen's eggs for research; the Citadel Council banned the research of Krogan, and he secretly used the factory assembly line model to "produce"
"The krogan...
This spirit of exploiting legal loopholes really made Xie Yuan extremely admired.
Sure enough, Lex, the former Krogan warlord who was working as a sidekick, suddenly jumped into the conversation between the two commanders: "How is that possible?!"
Kirach saw this krogan coming in and didn't hide it. He told the truth directly: "Obviously, Saren has found a treatment method for gene phagocytosis."
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire audience was immediately stunned.
