"This is Joker, from Normandy SR-2, do you need our help?"
Just when Xie Yuan decided to fight the Collector battleship with all his strength, the radar suddenly detected a new unknown ship emerging from the migration, and soon a communication request was sent to Xie Yuan.
side.
Then it connected to the clown's fart-filled voice.
"You arrived just in time, Normandy." When friendly forces arrived, Xie Yuan did not hesitate to praise, "You can be considered a Savetheday today."
"I never thought you would become so glib all of a sudden."
The Joker might become very proud after hearing Xie Yuan's courtesy, but Shepard would not, because she knew very well that the Collector could do nothing to Xie Yuan.
Just after Yi Di scanned the entire ship on the opposite side, she realized that although Xie Yuan was jumped to the side during the battle, he did not suffer a loss - the overall loss may not even exceed 5%, and his combat effectiveness was kept intact.
Because of this, Shepard knew that her arrival was just the icing on the cake: "Stop chatting! Yuan, what is the situation now, how should I help you?"
"Well, I have good news and bad news here."
Xie Yuan reported to Shepard based on the general situation he just grasped: "A large number of collectors from Horizon Colony have gone to the ground to arrest residents. I have sent some ground forces, but the situation is not good - they have a strange
The drones can stun the colonists, and the ground forces are making slow progress except using shield walls composed of high-temperature jets to protect themselves."
"The progress of the orbital war has not yet reached the point of qualitative change - you must have seen that my ship was gang-banged, and it was just sorted out."
"How are the casualties?" Shepard asked concerned.
"It's not good. The total number of casualties, including those on the ground, has reached hundreds. The number of direct deaths has not been released yet, but the number is estimated to be fifty or sixty." Xie Yuan also had a sigh on his face.
Just after setting sail in the game, so many people were suddenly killed or injured because of the encounter with the Collector. To be honest, the impact of this news would be quite bad.
"Shet! Is the situation so tragic?" Shepard was also shocked by the number of casualties this time - this has not been such a huge number of casualties for a long time since the annihilation war of Planet Tofan.
Xie Yuande is thankful that he is no longer directly subordinate to the Star Alliance Council or Pan-Asia. Otherwise, with this kind of casualty data, Xie Yuan will be scheduled for a military court hearing to assess whether there was any negligence in this operation.
Behavior.
"So now you can help in two ways: on the ground or in the sky."
Xie Yuan gave two directions in which assistance is needed: "The Reaper Pioneers have already taken control of the ships on the opposite side, so we are more than capable of protecting ourselves but not aggressive enough. You will lead the Normandy to join us, and your cooperation with our ships may cause damage to the enemy ships.
It forms a pincer attack - but although the Collector's warship suffered 30% losses, its combat effectiveness is well preserved. Be careful, it will focus on attacking you while doing damage, and the Normandy may not be able to withstand it - so he will have a chance to escape."
"Ground power is also something you need to pay attention to - our offensive power has no way to deal with those drones. I remember that Professor Mordin should have started to study this situation, right? I don't know if there are any countermeasures. If so.
If so, now is the stage where the display can be arranged.”
Shepard did not hesitate to choose to go to the ground for rescue first, because Professor Mordin did obtain some countermeasures against the drones.
This is also a normal choice, and Xie Yuan is not surprised - no matter what, protecting the environment and the people is also the original intention that an armed organization in an open society must maintain.
And thinking about it narrowly, if the collector of this warship is killed, there is no guarantee that the collector of the next warship will not continue to make trouble.
But if the residents of this colony are in danger, and Shepard and Xie Yuan fail to save them, and the survivors finally complain to the parliament... I don’t know if Shepard will lose his layer of skin, and Xie Yuan will probably be infected with it too.
Sao.
Therefore, after the short-term plan is confirmed, Shepard will form a three-person team with himself and two elites, and rush into the horizon to carry out rescue. At the same time, after completing the attack
After disrupting the Collectors' defenses, they cooperated with Captain Curtis' large forces to launch a general attack to regain the Horizon Colony.
Here, Xie Yuanhui will find a way to work with the Joker to attack the Collector warship from a double flank - mainly driving it away. Of course, it would be better if there is a chance to infiltrate.
As for completely destroying the Collector ship?
Yes, but the problem is bigger afterwards - the strength of the central axis main gun can vaporize the collector in front of him in an instant, but Xie Yuan knows very well that this kind of ship will definitely leave a large number of pods with stagnant life signals.
Xie Yuan wanted to save them and prevent the humanoid reaper core from taking shape, and if that didn't work, he would destroy the cruiser so that the humanoid reaper core could take shape as late as possible.
But once forceful measures are used to kill a large number of human residents detained inside such a ship, as well as the Collector warship - after investigation, no one will help Xie Yuan, and if the Reaper pioneer discovers this, it will even be a disaster.
If it is used more, Xie Yuan will even be pulled out and used as a sacrifice in order to calm public opinion.
It's not worth paying such a high price to defeat one of the Reaper's ponyboys.
And since Shepard chose the ground, once the Reapers on the ground are taken care of, the Collector warships that can no longer collect colonial residents will definitely not be willing to fight.
And if the Collector warship controlled by the Pioneer wants to escape, to be honest, Xie Yuan and the Normandy cannot stop it without spending a lot of money to fight against it.
Sure enough, after Captain Curtis replied to the letter, thanks to Shepard's assistance, the ground forces had re-liberated the Horizon Colony, and the ground collector forces had been completely wiped out.
At the same time, the Collector battleship also changed its interest in fighting Xie Yuan and the Normandy. After selling a flaw, it took the opportunity to change direction and start escaping from the battle at the highest acceleration.
The clown still wanted to take advantage of the victory and pursue him, but Xie Yuan stopped him - after all, it is better to chase the enemy than to pursue him, as there is no guarantee that he will not encounter a deliberate ambush set up by the collector.
Sure enough, after discovering that Xie Yuan had no intention of catching up, Guangfu suddenly received a call request.
"Come in." Xie Yuan already knew who this guy who suddenly came in was.
"Buzz!" Sure enough, what appeared in front of Xie Yuan's eyes was a collector's head, but the body was the body of an eight-clawed spider, and his eyes were shining.
"You know what?" The collector general's tone was mixed with contempt, "I don't know how you stole our technology, but I can tell you... your use is very low, almost a poor imitation, and inefficient.
I'm going to die."
"I know." Xie Yuan shrugged.
"Then how did you steal our core?" The Collector General looked very interested.
"It just happened at the right time." Xie Yuan remained tight-lipped about this, "It's just a little bit of luck."
"Stupid organic creature, as long as you don't improve your qualifications, you will never understand the true purpose of our technology - otherwise you will not guard your core with heavy soldiers. You also know that as long as we come in, we will have all the means to control you.
That rough creation."
The Collector General's voice expressed curiosity at this time: "Your heavily modified soldiers... they have some substances that I don't seem to understand... That's not something from this three-dimensional world, is it?"
"Want to know?" Xie Yuan is not going to answer this question now, "I might consider doing this when you let your true body meet with me."
"That won't be long."
The Collector General closed the communication after speaking.
The next moment, the little angel immediately reported back: "Captain, the Collector has completed its migration and has disappeared on the battlefield."
"Received." Xie Yuan nodded to show understanding.
"What is this? Yuan?" Kaiden looked at Xie Yuan with a puzzled face, "What is stolen technology? And it seems that you are very familiar with the Pioneer?"
"Herald is familiar with Shepard. You knew it on Wormel, but what you didn't know was that she was solving the plague of Omega before she was resurrected."
Xie Yuan quietly explained to Kaiden:
"The Heralds all possessed the Collector and showed up to meet me."
"You never reported this to the council?" Kaiden felt a little unacceptable.
"Citadel?" Xie Yuan looked at Kaiden, "It's useless, there is no video evidence, just relying on my mouth to say it, no one will believe it except for the name of Aphansia on my head.
- I'm not Shepard, and my words have no influence."
"But did you report it?" Kaiden asked righteously.
"The mission report contains a detailed record of everything I did, but I will never emphasize one point in particular."
Xie Yuan's expression was still very relaxed: "Are you satisfied?"
"..." Kaiden could only shake his head and stopped talking.
"Okay!" Xie Yuan took the initiative to smooth things over, "Let's welcome back our hero Shepard, and also Ashley Williams, who is about to join us."
"..." Kaiden's mouth trembled for a while, but he nodded seriously, "Okay."
