Half an hour later, they barely landed in Normandy to pick up the ground troops.
"Doctor, how is Tully?" Gallas rubbed his hands with a regretful expression.
"It's nothing serious." The old ship's doctor glanced at him and turned to the other crew members gathered outside the medical cabin: "Since the Quarian's armor cannot be opened casually, I communicated with the microcomputer built into her armor, and the conclusion is that
His physical condition is all normal.”
"In that case, why did his behavior become strange and he finally fell into a coma?" Gallas tried to get to the bottom of it.
"Then I want to ask you," the old ship doctor looked at Thanos: "Shepard, the cable car you were riding was shot down by a rocket launcher, right? Wasn't it some strange mental attack?"
"I found something abnormal at a rest stop below. After warning Galax and Tali to prepare for battle, they were shot down by rockets." Thanos paused: "I tried my best to protect them from falling and falling.
Explosion damage, but the mental aspect is..."
"You are so humble, Shepard," Galax said. "Even when we were suddenly attacked in mid-air, you were able to calmly take Tully and I out of the carriage, and detonate the power core of the cable car to offset the damage from the fall. In exchange for
I can't do that, and I'll probably have to use the shield to resist."
Because the incident happened so fast, the team members who had not had time to understand the details all paid attention to Thanos.
"Grant had known that Shepard was great." Grant praised him at the right time, but with his intelligence, he might actually be expressing his own opinion.
"After successfully arriving on the ground, Gallas quickly entered the battle, but after Tali was stunned for a moment, she suddenly became quite nervous, but her marksmanship improved a lot because of this." Thanos shrugged.
"She's just an engineer, her marksmanship and so on..." Gallas suddenly stopped mid-sentence and turned to the old ship's doctor: "Tali is afraid of heights. I didn't know this until we took the cable car. This is the same as hers.
Does the situation matter?"
"A patient with acrophobia fell from a high altitude?" Doctor Lao Chuan smacked his lips: "I'm not very good at psychology, but it seems like she broke out in extreme fear."
"When things go to extremes, they must turn against each other," Liara said.
"That's a good relationship," Ashley said with a smile, "Let her bungee jump before every action."
"No!" X2, the old ship's doctor and Gallas said at the same time.
"..." Galas touched his visor and took a half step back to signal the old ship's doctor to speak first.
"I don't know what the psychological conditions of aliens are like. If you count humans alone, there may be more than one reaction after extreme fear, and most of them are harmful," the old ship doctor said: "I suggest you do the next
If the altitude is too high, don’t take her with you.”
"[Commander?]" Kaiden's voice came from the communication channel: "[We have just crossed the 'Summit 15', and it is true that there are all geth there. They seem to be looking for a way to the 'rift laboratory', but because
They shot down the cable car, and the line leading there was interrupted, and now they are about to arrive at the Double Helix's 'Crack Laboratory', what is your order?】"
"[I'll take Ashley and Grant with me this time.]" Thanos glanced at Galax's expression and responded to Kaiden.

Crack Lab.
This is a ring-shaped laboratory located on the top of a mountain. Except for the internal compartments, the outer ring is entirely made of transparent glass curtain wall material. You can easily see the vast mountains of Novilia and the roaring snowstorm.
"Ha, if Tali really comes, she will be trembling, and Gallas will take care of her, losing two combat powers at once, great." Ashley said while hiding behind the bunker while firing.
"It's unbelievable," Grant fired the shotgun twice, overheating it, and awkwardly retreated behind the bunker to wait for it to cool down: "A turian actually likes a quarian."
"What kind of things do you care about?" Thanos leaned forward and raised his gun, blasting a bug: "You don't have anything to say about the enemy we are facing?"
"It's just a bug, what's the point?" Ashley disagreed.
"In Grant's tribe, the most talked about topic is whose elder killed so many Reknai in the past. If it's less than three figures, I'd be embarrassed to say hello to anyone." Grant agreed.
"Okay." Thanos shrugged and continued to aim his gun.
When they arrived at the Rift Laboratory before, the entire building had been completely occupied by "Rachnai Soldiers" and "Raknai Banelings".
The former looks like a hairless bull with a crocodile mouth, and has weird appendages on its back that can spit venom, while the latter looks like a transparent hedgehog that will explode once it encounters an impact, splattering the acid in its body.
But what is strange is that there are no corpses or wreckage of staff in the entire laboratory. After checking the contents of several terminals, it can be confirmed that all the staff and guards here evacuated before Reknai lost control.
Judging from the extent to which the data has been cleaned, it is completely a planned action, rather than an emergency evacuation due to an accident.
In other words, these bugs still in the laboratory are "defective products" that have been abandoned. No matter what the original researchers' purpose was, they must have achieved it.
But why the geth came here, the answer can't be found in the relevant broken information.
"Hey, Commander, come and see, there must have been a big guy living in this place."
After a while, the entire laboratory became quiet, and there was no longer the sound of bugs crawling around in the ventilation ducts. Ashley and Grant also arrived at the central laboratory of the laboratory.
There is a huge cylindrical cultivation cabin there. Not only are there many restraint measures inside, but there are also a large number of weapons aimed at it. However, all the arrangements have failed. Judging from the overall intact cultivation cabin with no signs of damage, the contents inside
"A certain creature" either came out on its own through some kind of ability, or was taken away by someone.
"Geth and Reknai, we should be enough to give those guys in Hanshan Port a sap," Ashley said.
"Grant wants to go back to see Gareth and Tully!" Krogan seemed to reveal a bit of his true nature.
"Hmm..." Thanos raised his eyebrows and temporarily closed the communication with Normandy: "By the way, Ashley, do you know that Kaiden likes you?"
"Ah? What? How can...wait, hey?" The female man, who talked about "heavy armor" and "big guns" all day long, was stunned for a moment and became incoherent.
"Hahaha!" Grant laughed loudly.
"And you, Grant," Thanos glanced at him: "Liara is very interested in you, haven't you noticed?"
"Haha... Huh?" The Krogan opened his mouth and froze.
"How is it?" Thanos looked at the two team members: "Are you still gossiping?"
