Chapter 253 The Emperor Leads the Army in Person! An Offer that Cannot Be Refused! Star Alliance!
Chapter 253 The emperor leads the army in person! An offer that cannot be refused! Star Alliance! Loyalty!
"Is this the warrior of the Forerunner? What a strong strength!"
The elite guards who were watching the fight on the spot could not help but exclaimed. They did not expect that the fighting power displayed by David would be so strong.
Although their commander Morami was not as good as young elite warriors like Wadami, he was definitely not an ordinary person.
At least in a one-on-one duel, there were definitely no more than three Star Alliance warriors who could defeat Morami in one move!
And David was able to defeat their commander so easily, which was enough to show that the opponent's strength was definitely not something he could challenge.
"Tsk!"
At this time, David made a light tsk and came to the side of Morami who had fainted. After taking a look at the other party's condition, he turned his head and looked at the elite guards in front of him.
He raised the power spear in his hand and made a gesture of eagerness to try, thinking about fighting with this group of elite warriors again.
However, these elite guards are not fools. They are not like Morami, who, after knowing clearly that the opponent is strong, still bites the bullet and fights with others.
As guards of the elite tribe, they do value honor, but they do not disregard the value of life.
Besides, they are warriors of the pioneers, gods!
It is normal to admit defeat if you can't win.
Immediately, these elite guards squatted on the ground, and like the wild boar beasts outside the fleet, they made a gesture of submission to David and expressed their obedience.
And Wadami could only help up the unconscious commander Morami, as if he had expected it.
"Lead the way!"
After dealing with the guards and the Star Alliance commander here, David continued to speak to Wadami.
And Wadami is also very spiritual. Although it can't understand the other party's language, it can understand David's meaning through the other party's tone and body movements.
Then, under the leadership of Wadami, David and others continued to move steadily towards the headquarters command room, and recorded the location of the passage along the way.
...
After David settled the headquarters of the Star Alliance Fleet, a huge interstellar fleet also appeared on the Shield World 0459 celestial body!
It was a fleet led by the Infinity-class aircraft carrier, consisting of 16 RCS armored cruisers and 20 Heroic-class super-heavy cruisers.
This fleet left the hyperspace channel and anchored steadily in the galaxy where the Shield World was located.
Obviously, this second wave of fleets arriving near the Shield World was the reinforcements sent by the Universal Corporation.
As the executive officer of the Universal Corporation, Leon himself also came here in person to check on the work of David, Morgan and others.
As for the affairs of the Ideal City headquarters, they were temporarily handed over to the Transcendental AI Europa, and Secretary-General Lucy was responsible for holding it on his behalf.
At this moment, under the command of Morgan Blackhand, the Long Night has led the team to complete the encirclement of the Shield World celestial body and formed a defense array.
This is to prevent other ships from approaching the Shield World.
Not long after, the Infinity-class aircraft carrier that arrived at the galaxy completed its rendezvous with the Long Night.
Standing at the center console inside the Infinity-class, Leon was observing the enclosed Flood on the surface of the Shield World and the magnificent Forerunner creations - the Shield World celestial bodies through the messages sent by the ground forces.
This was Leon's first time entering the 004 Universe "Halo". When sending people to take down the Harvest Planet, he was in command at the rear throughout the whole process and did not personally get involved.
Because he knew that there was no need to risk coming in.
But the situation is different now!
Catherine Halsey discovered a large number of Forerunner relics on the Shield World and counted out countless good treasures.
Sojourner Dreadnought, World Seed, and even the connection system device of the Think Tank!
Once Leon learned about the information of [Neurophysics] through the Think Tank, the ultimate mystery of the entire Halo universe would be fully revealed in front of him.
As the top leader of a giant enterprise, such important resources appeared on the Shield World, and Leon had to come in person to receive these things.
In order to prevent those with bad intentions from trying to use the technology in the think tank to secretly develop their own interstellar forces.
And once I come, I can deter the evil-minded people below!
In addition, the reason why Leon chose to "lead the expedition in person" was also to test the managers of the Universal City and other universes.
After all, he couldn't focus his attention on the main universe and other conquered universes all the time.
He needed a group of specialized executives who were capable of handling these things.
Therefore, Leon's departure this time was also a work test for Lucy and other executives.
"Boss, our fleet has successfully docked!"
At this time, the voice of the Infinite-class captain reached Leon's ears.
"Yeah."
Leon nodded, and immediately turned on the communication device of the holographic screen. The captain of the Long Night, Morgan Blackhand, also appeared on the screen and reported to Leon:
"Boss, David and his team have successfully captured the scientific research fleet of the Star Alliance, and now all the members of the Star Alliance have been detained."
"But to be on the safe side, I suggest sending more soldiers to guard against the Star Alliance soldiers causing trouble."
"In addition, the [031 Passionate Witness] Pioneer AI on the Shield World will soon open a channel for us. At that time, we will be pulled into the interior of the Shield World by the gravity field to avoid contact with the Flood."
After listening to Morgan Blackhand's work report, Leon just nodded slightly, and then he asked if anything else happened.
"There is no abnormality inside the Shield World for the time being. David and Reed are watching over there, and any movement will not escape their eyes."
After the voice fell, Leon told Morgan a few words and then ended the communication.
Then, Leon continued to instruct the captain of the Infinity class, ordering him to move forward a distance and let the fleet anchor in the gravity field area of the Shield World.
"Yes, boss!"
After completing this series of commands, Leon left the center console and walked alone on the deck corridor of the headquarters.
Although David, Reed, and Halsey did not stop reporting on their work during the mission, Leon still felt a little uneasy.
After all, the existence of [031 Enthusiastic Witness] Forerunner AI somewhat surprised and stunned him!
Logically speaking, after tens of thousands of years of existence, intelligent AI will most likely go crazy, but this Forerunner AI still maintains its sanity.
After thinking about it, Leon can only think that the Forerunner AI technology may be able to bypass the setting defects of intelligent AI, so that some Forerunner AI can maintain normal behavior logic for a long time.
At that time, Halsey, who is proficient in intelligent AI, and Ott Cunningham can be arranged to conduct a careful study.
Now, Leon's first task is to take over the items and permissions of the Shield World in full, and to accept the elites and wild boar captives who have been imprisoned and controlled.
This group of Star Alliance forces has a great effect on the Giant Enterprise, and is the key point for Leon to disintegrate the Star Alliance!
...
After 12 hours, a large number of Giant Enterprise warships have appeared in the internal space of the Shield World.
There are countless reconnaissance aircraft and monitoring devices flying back and forth.
Under the control of David and other Astartes warriors, the cruisers of the Star Alliance have been fully taken over and controlled.
Since the warships of the Star Alliance are basically all reverse-developed from the Forerunner technology, humans can also use the control devices of these warships smoothly.
At this moment, the artificial sun inside the shield world has dimmed according to the established "rising in the east and setting in the west" program.
The nocturnal animals living on this metal planet also ran out to hunt and forage, and the procedures of life and machines are exactly the same.
But in such a quiet and peaceful night, the engineering department personnel of the Universal Giant Enterprise are busy building a planetary base.
Tens of thousands of construction employees of the Night Department and countless Hex robots are busy with construction projects inside and outside the huge base.
The employees of the giant enterprise equipped with mechanical exoskeletons command AI robots everywhere to complete construction tasks, and occasionally they will personally carry materials.
During this period, the Temple Defenders would occasionally appear confused. These stupid AIs would use monitoring devices to curiously check human activities.
But they do not have self-awareness, and can only simply analyze whether human behavior will cause damage and threats to the structure of the shield world through scanning and identification.
Fortunately, after some identification, this group of Temple Defenders found that building a base did not belong to the activity of destroying the shield world, so they no longer cared about the situation here.
Continue to implement the patrol procedure and beware of the traces of the flood inside the shield world.
In addition, in order to speed up the construction of the base in the shield world, Li Ang will also open the star gate set up on the star of abundance to the inside of the shield world.
In this way, the cost of material transportation can be greatly reduced, and the construction speed of the shield world base can be accelerated, so that the camp of the giant enterprise can take root here.
At this moment, in the internal prison area of an RCS-class armored cruiser, the Star Alliance soldiers who had already been unloaded with weapons and power armor were lazily lying in various cells.
Especially the boar beasts who like to eat and wait for death, once they enter the prison, they are like returning home, sitting on the spot waiting for the employees of the giant company to come and distribute food.
At this moment, the boar beasts who have just had enough wine and meat have fallen asleep in their cells, highlighting a leisurely enjoyment.
Compared with fighting and killing on the battlefield, the boar beasts prefer to eat, drink and have fun all day long, and go to their wives to make people when they have nothing to do.
In their view, this is the serious thing that a living species should really consider doing.
What kind of honor of a warrior and the relics of the forerunners are useless, as long as they can survive and protect themselves, they will be considered successful.
For the boar beasts, the treatment of being a prisoner of war in the prison area of the giant company's ship is really good!
There is food and drink, and life safety can be guaranteed. These cannon fodders follow the jackals and ghost-faced beasts to fight. Even when there are no enemies, they will be caught and tortured by these beast teammates, or even eaten.
Therefore, the wild boars prefer to stay with the giant enterprise, at least they can save their lives.
However, the elite prisoners on the other side are not so happy. These strong warriors have endless energy.
They are the "Teddy" in the Star Alliance.
Before coming here, they thought David would assign them corresponding dormitories and rest areas, until the gate was closed, these elite prisoners suddenly realized.
They were fooled, this is a fucking prison!
“Let us out—!!”
"Damn it, why are you doing this to us?"
"..."
Waves of unwilling roars came from the prison, but no one could understand their words. The employees of the giant company only thought that these elites were idle and howling.
However, these elites don't just yell around all day long. They are quite well-behaved and honest when eating.
The creatures in the Covenant camp are basically carbon-based species and require similar nutrients to humans. Basic proteins, carbohydrates, water and other substances are also their basic needs.
The food prepared by employees of giant companies are also standard meals for employees. These meals are rare delicacies for the elite.
After finishing the meal, some elite soldiers were more face-conscious and kept yelling after eating. Some elites were more pragmatic and started shaking their rice bowls after eating, asking employees of giant companies for more food.
From rebellious to "really delicious", all you need is food and accommodation.
As for the elite school officer Wadami who had previously led David, Morami, the commander-in-chief of the Star Alliance scientific expedition team, and the elite guards were imprisoned in specific prison areas.
They are not like the elite soldiers outside who can fool around, nor are they like the wild boar beasts who just sleep soundly, but remain silent.
Obviously, they know that no matter how noisy they are, they are just prisoners of war at the mercy of the other party. Now Morami only hopes that the leader of this force can form an alliance with the elite tribe.
At this moment, Morami was huddled in the corner, not knowing whether he was thinking about the humiliating duel that he was defeated by David, or whether he was thinking about how to save the lives of his subordinates next.
But the only thing that is certain is that Morami does not want to become enemies with David. It hopes to use this mysterious force to help the elite regain the leadership position of the Star Alliance!
Seeing Morami's silence, Wadami, as a subordinate, also wanted to say some words of comfort, but was worried that his superior would blame him for not stopping him.
So he could only do less than do more, and followed Morami into autistic silence. Wadami would rather say nothing than make a mistake at this time.
clatter.
clatter!
Just when Vadami was about to fall asleep, it suddenly heard heavy footsteps coming from outside. At this moment, Vadami realized that it was the Astartes warriors from before.
The elite warriors who were making trouble outside also fell silent and looked at the strangers who came here.
The wild boar beasts, who had only been focusing on sleeping and eating, immediately woke up and stretched out their heads to look out of the corridor.
In addition to the previous Astartes warriors, the people who came here were actually other "Forerunners" wearing black uniforms!
Although the people walking at the forefront did not have the exaggerated body shape of the Astartes warriors, the aura carried by their bodies could make all the elites realize that the newcomers had an extraordinary identity.
That man is none other than the executive officer of a giant company, Li Ang!
The employees following Li Ang were Dr. Halsey, who had just joined the giant company, and Ott Cunningham, the new director of the scientific research department.
After arriving at the prison where Morami was imprisoned, Li Ang first looked at the matrix devices around Morami and Wadami's necks, and then looked at each other.
At that moment, Morami and Wadami felt their hearts tightening at the same time. They seemed to feel a natural sense of oppression from Li Ang's eyes.
Needless to say, the other party must be the leader of the group of tin-can warriors outside!
Before Morami could speak or communicate with Li Ang, the matrix device on its neck suddenly took effect and began to pour a large amount of information into their minds.
It turns out that the matrix devices at the necks of Morami and Wadami are exactly the props used to extract and implant information and data.
Including other elite warriors and wild boar soldiers, David was also forced to wear these devices before entering the prison.
As the top manager of the matrix, Li Ang can freely input and output any information to it with just a thought.
Now, the information that Leon instills into Morami and Wadami is the history of the fortunes of giant companies in the world, as well as the plan to open the star gate and prepare to unify the "Halo" universe.
In just an instant, Morami and Wadami have learned human language and a large amount of information through the matrix.
After a moment of silence, the elite commander Morami and the school officer Wadami immediately knelt down on one knee and expressed in human language:
"Lipa Morami is willing to serve a giant company in the world!"
"Tir Vadami is willing to serve the world's giants and the Recyclers!"
Obviously, after instilling information from Li Ang, Morami and Wadami already know the truth about the Forerunners and understand their true mission next.
Immediately, the wild boars and elite warriors outside also understood the true identities of Li Ang and David.
They also followed suit and shouted in unison: "I am willing to be loyal to the giant companies in the world, Star Alliance! Loyal!!"
As the level of the matrix increases, this thing is no longer limited to the control of individual consciousness, and even group consciousness can be controlled simultaneously.
As long as they are connected to the matrix device, the consciousness and memories of these Star Alliance members are basically freely reshaped and fabricated by Li Ang.
It can be said that as long as Li Ang is willing, he can control the consciousness of any living being at any time and control it for his own use.
But Li Ang would not change the other party's memory information at will, as that would easily cause bugs and burn the other party's brain. There would be no such trouble if it was just simple information input and output.
The reason why Li Ang only needed to input a thought to make these Star Alliance members swear allegiance to him was because he had already put the best plan in front of each Star Alliance race.
In short, Li Ang made irresistible conditions for each Star Alliance group.
For the Boar Tribe, Li Ang's conditions were that they would be a formal "outsourcing unit" of a giant enterprise. Although they did not have a staff welfare, they enjoyed basic employee treatment of a giant enterprise.
Food and accommodation were provided, and they would not be bullied at will. If they accumulated enough military merits, they could be formally established, and even come to work in Ideal City!
Of course, the above is just a pie in the sky. After all, with the individual ability of the Boar, it would be quite good to be able to survive until retirement.
Not to mention accumulating enough military merits to enter the formal establishment.
Even if there are some very outstanding and lucky Boars who can get the establishment or even come to work in Ideal City, they deserve it.
Giant companies will not bury any talent. Any life form that makes outstanding contributions to the giant company, even if it is a piece of sticky slime, will get the reward it deserves.
