Chapter 2679
When a bad little girl accidentally killed a female demon who seemed to have a good reputation, when the Marines wearing CMC armor carefully searched and explored the place where the female demon she killed was located.
In the basement under the building, just when the corpses of the high-level demons were at a loss and had to report to their superiors, in the command center of the mine base, including the base's supreme commander Darius, a group of senior
Officers, senior commanders and general staff officers at all levels were having an emergency meeting in a huge conference room on a certain floor.
soon!
When Darius presented the piece of information that he had obtained from the twisted psyker prisoner at the meeting, which made him a little shocked and troubled, as expected, all the senior officers and staff present started to express their anger.
Exclaim loudly and discuss:
"!!"
"What?"
"Three, three months?"
"You're kidding!"
"You want to recapture the entire Huagai Planet within three months, otherwise the survivors of the entire planet will be distorted and corrupted by then?"
"That's impossible!"
"Absolutely impossible!"
"yes!"
"Three months, this is too soon..."
"I also think it's too aggressive. It's better for us to play it safe. After all, the situation is great now. Can't we just play it safe?"
"I don't mind playing it safe, but what should I do if what the commander just said is true?"
"The red mist can really corrupt humans, and does it really only have three months left?"
"this!"
"Is there really such a thing?"
"We still have to rescue the refugees, eliminate the subspace demons, and eradicate the source of the red mist within three months. Otherwise, all the people still alive within the red mist will turn into that kind of twisted monster?"
"ha!"
"Now that's good, all plans are going to be disrupted again."
"Changing the plan is secondary, but I'm worried about other things."
"Has the information been verified?"
"well……"
"Now that the general has said it, I guess it's almost the same."
"Who knows if the prisoner deceived us?"
"snort!"
"I think it's better to interrogate the prisoner again. It would be best to use the latest lie detector, or simply dig out his brain, and then we can find the information ourselves!"
"..."
Although the information came from the mouth of their commander Darius, since the matter was important and sounded a bit absurd, and the information came from a prisoner, the officers still
They were more or less suspicious, and many of them even held an oppositional attitude, and then clamored to use the cruelest methods against the prisoners.
"Dear colleagues!"
"I don't understand!"
So, after arguing for a while and discovering that Chief Darius did not explain the authenticity of the intelligence or respond to everyone's questions, and seemed to be convinced that it was the truth, finally, an officer couldn't help it anymore and directly
He stood up and patted the big round table, pointed his finger at a certain officer in charge of the scientific research department of the base, and then said with a rude look:
"Didn't the scientific research department say that if the red mist with subspace chaotic energy attributes wants to assimilate this planet, it will take at least hundreds or even thousands of years?"
"Why did it suddenly become three months now?"
"What kind of bullshit information is provided here? The Corrupted Xel'Naga are not as deceptive as you are, right?"
It's no wonder, after all, the situation is very good now, and the base has already been carrying out military operations to conquer the surrounding areas step by step. Even various plans and plans for attacks and campaigns have been scheduled for two or three years. But now it's better.
, the situation that was not taken seriously at first suddenly took a turn, and anyone who changed it would be very angry.
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
Upon hearing this, the officers, including Darius, who had been excited and arguing just now, of course fell silent and all turned to look at the head of the scientific research department who was being criticized by the officer.
And judging from their individual faces and the complicated eyes above, it is not difficult to guess that their thoughts are obviously the same as those of the officer who was the first to ask questions, and they are very concerned about some wrong information provided by the scientific research department.
dissatisfied?
"Hmm!"
"Don't worry, everyone, I want to correct and add something here!"
However!
Facing the strange looks from everyone, which were either angry, complicated, or dissatisfied, the head of the scientific research department was not in a hurry. Instead, he looked at Darius and after receiving instructions, he slowly stood on the table.
He stood up and continued:
"first!"
"I remember that our scientific research department just said at that time: the speed at which the red mist can assimilate the planet may take hundreds or even thousands of years, or even longer, right?"
"There is no doubt that the results of our research are just that!"
"Because we all know that the purpose of the subspace demons is nothing more than to assimilate and transform this planet into a part of the subspace, or to turn it into some kind of bridge between the subspace and the main material plane.
?”
"Of course, no matter what the demons' purpose is, those things are not important."
"Our current focus is not on studying that weird subspace, but there are other more important things, such as how to break through the red mist that can block detection?"
Having said this, the person in charge paused for a while before continuing:
"Indeed!"
"We also know that the red mist released by the demons, in addition to shielding our detection, may also have the purpose of assimilating the planet. However, if the concentration remains unchanged, it will indeed take hundreds or even thousands of people to
The long process of thousands of years, that is the data we obtained through observation, and it cannot be wrong."
"As for the specific speed at which creatures are distorted and corrupted, we don't know yet."
"After all, living things have metabolic processes, and the human body's immunity is not as fragile as we thought. How long it will take for it to be completely corrupted requires a lot of experiments, and we are conducting such experiments in an orderly manner."
"Of course, those experiments may be somewhat inhumane?"
"In this regard, the scientific research department of our engineering station has also submitted relevant arguments and speculations. However, given that our army, whether armored units or individual units, has very excellent three-defense capabilities, it will not be directly exposed. And being under the influence of that kind of red mist, so I’m afraid no one, including our scientific research department, paid much attention to that matter, right?"
"However, we have also conducted observations and large-scale data collection on survivors who have been in the red fog for a long time. However, the impact of the red fog on living things, especially humans, is not continuous. Unless there are significant changes, corruption or distortion in the experimental target and observation group, we will certainly not be able to draw accurate conclusions, let alone provide accurate information."
"Although we can accelerate the process of corruption and distortion by changing the concentration of red mist, which is indeed feasible, it does not have much practical significance."
"The concentration of the red mist that permeates this planet is so high. Even if the concentration is artificially changed to accelerate the process of corruption and distortion, and then to judge the speed of corruption and distortion under the current concentration, it is not rigorous, because That doesn’t mean that the red mist at the current concentration is necessarily harmful.”
"This is not a star area. We do not have a time accelerometer. Many experiments that rely on long-term observation cannot be carried out at all. The results obtained through data simulation can only be used as a reference. For us scientific researchers, such results are also unsatisfactory. Of any practical significance!”
"And then..."
"Our scientific research department has very few manpower, and no relevant real cases have been discovered so far. Therefore, our main focus is currently on researching and breaking through the shielding of our military instruments by the red mist."
"As for corruption..."
"If the commander gives the order, we will definitely mobilize more manpower and resources to conduct research and investigation in this area."
"But in that case, the research and progress in red fog detection may be slower. By then, the military will have to be mentally prepared to fight under the current conditions?"
"And we make no guarantees as to when the results will be available!"
Finally, he spoke a lot eloquently, and tried to explain why the scientific research department has not discovered the key to the problem so far in terms that ordinary people, including Darius and other old and rough officers, can understand. After understanding, he saw that the officer who had just accused him had changed from anger to resentment and sat down. He saw that all the officers present began to frown in thought and had no intention of questioning. The one who was mainly responsible for the scientific research department The person in charge slowly turned his head, looked at Darius in the chair with questioning eyes, and waited for his opinion.
"okay."
"There's no need to change the focus of research, just keep everything as usual!"
"You only have so many people, and we have no way to mobilize manpower and various resources from the star area, and we have no way to send specimens back, so let's do this for the time being!"
After thinking about it, Darius waved his hand, indicating that there was no need to continue arguing about the issue just now, and now was not the time to shirk responsibility from each other.
After all, he himself also knows that there are only a few dozen people in the engineering station responsible for researching weird things like red mist. Excluding the handymen, there are probably less than ten doctors and researchers who are really useful. At the moment, there are no
It is obviously unrealistic to use the vast resources of the star sector to achieve the results they want in a short period of time with just a few dozen people.
"Although the information was obtained from the mouth of a twisted psyker prisoner, and although we don't know whether what he said is true or false for the time being, given that he is still imprisoned by us and will be found out in at most three months, so
…”
"I don't think he has any need to deceive us?"
This is Darius's point of view, because he has seen the prisoner. Although the other party is very stupid and arrogant, there is really no reason to deceive in that kind of thing. In addition, they did not let the other party go immediately. If the other party dares to lie, then
Three months later, he wouldn't mind, as a certain officer said just now, ordering the other party's brain to be dug out and then forcibly reading the memory.
"so……"
"Everyone!"
"That's it for now. I don't want to argue or think about other things. I just want to know: if we really only have three months, can we completely liberate the entire Huagai Star?"
"Of course, you don't have to be too thorough. You just need to defeat the demons and rescue most of the survivors like the current Gui market."
To be continued...
