Chapter 2708 (ω‖) The weird man who can give birth to his own children!
It is not yet known what was discussed between Darius and Horus, the two highest commanders of the two forces. Anyway, the two of them definitely did not reach any substantive agreement. That is nothing.
Questionable.
Because the opponent's two warships did not surrender.
Likewise, the opponent's ground troops, the sixteenth legion Astartes space warriors, numbering at least several thousand, have no intention of evacuating Huagai in a hurry.
At this time, they were still busy preparing various fortifications in the small town they occupied before and the abandoned small military fortress left over from the planetary government period, showing their attitude of preparing to fight to the end.
Of course, it seems that the top management of both parties have not broken down the talks either!
Because, the two warships on the other side's orbit directly showed their goodwill and turned off their engines, and then just floated on the orbit by inertia. When the Huagai Star side saw this, they only left the largest flagship and continued to monitor it.
, the other battlecruisers quickly jumped away from the scene.
That situation undoubtedly shows that although the two sides have not reached an agreement, they should have reached some kind of tacit understanding or preconditions. When will the final negotiation results be obtained? It is estimated that only the final reactions of the ships and ground forces of both sides can be determined.
Know.
And that will undoubtedly be a long process. As for whether that process is because the differences between the two parties are too great, or because one party is deliberately doing it, or whether both parties are deliberately delaying it, it is currently unknown.
And today, on the third day after the war stopped, Darius finally arrived at an underground research institute in the mine base with a certain troubled little girl head of state whom he met halfway in the base, and
Successfully saw a very tall figure, naked, but the middle part was mosaic-ed by some kind of frosting method, and then he couldn't see clearly. He was lying motionless with his eyes closed in a vertical closed dormant medical warehouse.
The man inside.
And he was none other than the fourth company commander of the 16th Legion's 'Lunar Wolves', one of the most prestigious warriors of the legion, a member of the Mourning Society, the senior commander of the legion and the leader of Horus.
A dear friend, whom Horus regarded as his own son and his favorite and perfect Captain. He had a high reputation in the Luna Wolves Legion. He was not only an extraordinary diplomat, but also a great warrior. It is said that
He is also a Sejanus who has both handsome appearance and noble moral character, who also has respect and compassion for mortals, is strong, upright and strict with himself.
As for the other party's name, identity, and various praises, it doesn't matter whether they learned it from a certain original body or from another prisoner. Anyway, the mine base has learned the other party's identity.
Knowing they had caught someone who was a bit heavy on the other side.
What's even more coincidental is that the other party's full name is 'Hasta Sejanus', which is exactly the same as the surname of a certain annoying little girl head of state?
But, that's just a coincidence.
Apart from those three words, there is really nothing else in common, and of course the two people have no relationship with each other. Therefore, when the relevant personnel in the research institute study them, they will certainly not have any similarities.
No mercy.
Naturally, they don’t call it research, but ‘treatment’!
After all, if the other party's body structure is not studied clearly, those biological researchers...that is, the 'doctors' will definitely not dare to treat it easily, so no matter what they do to it, of course all
It is for the sake of the other party, and that is a fact without any dispute.
"Huh?"
|˙˙)?
"Isn't this the bad guy?"
╭(′ o′)╭
As soon as she arrived at the laboratory, Anne recognized him at a glance, and then asked Darius with some surprise and confusion:
"Are you here to see him?"
()
"But, what's so good about him?"
(^)
Originally, she had just planned to go find someone else to play, or simply go out to play, but the Darius in front of her said that there was a fun place and asked her if she wanted to go with him. As a result, he actually deceived her.
Come to such a boring research institute to see such a weird guy with no clothes?
She is not a bad thing like a bear, and she has no interest in humans without clothes!
(…)
(●￣￣●)
(Tibbers said: Uncle Bear doesn’t like male humans who don’t wear clothes either. He only likes fresh and tender females of the right age. The rough meat in the glass vessel in front of him is obviously not in his diet.
)
"The Führer."
"They said they found some interesting things. I think you seem to be fine, so..."
"You're all here, why don't we just listen together?"
"PhD!"
"You can start."
After saying that, and seeing that his head of state had no intention of objecting, Darius quickly motioned to the researcher to hurry up and tell him the results of the other person's research in the past two days.
After all, they have now fought a real battle with the Terra Empire. Although the result is not satisfactory, in order to know themselves and the enemy, they have to know some of the opponent's strengths, especially those whose strength is far beyond that of ordinary people.
He still wanted to get to know the Astartes Space Marines well.
"I don't know how to describe my mood at this moment, it's really..."
“It’s incredible!”
"Sir, and the head of state, I think you can't imagine how many secrets he has in him?"
"Although I have been studying for three days, I feel that there are still many things that I have not thoroughly studied?"
First he was talking excitedly, and then he saw the impatient look on the face of a certain bad little girl. The doctor did not dare to neglect, and quickly started operating an instrument in front of the dormant medical warehouse, and then performed the experiment.
A huge holographic three-dimensional simulated anatomy diagram of the human body appeared in mid-air in the room, and then he pointed at the three-dimensional simulated anatomy diagram of the human body and began to explain in detail to the two of them:
"Look!"
"In addition to the strong body and tall and terrifying appearance..."
"This guy actually has nineteen organs in his body that are completely different from normal humans in our star region, including normal humans on the Huagai planet!"
"These, these and these, they are distributed in all parts of the body!"
"What's amazing is that although they are artificial organs, each of them is extremely complex and powerful, and they are also interconnected. Many organs can only work normally in the presence of another organ, and the removal, mutation or
If it is shielded, it will affect the normal functions of other organs, which is very magical!"
"After three days of research, we were surprised to find..."
"Instead of saying he is a person, why not say he is a perfect creature transformed by surgery, a super war machine?"
"Can you regard him as a genetic creature with the same genes as the Zerg in our sector?"
"But what's different from the perfect fusion of the Zerg, absorbing certain gene fragments and evolving corresponding advantageous abilities is that this guy, and the other Astartes Space Marines we captured, all used the same surgery.
It was forcibly transformed."
"They are all a group of genetically modified warriors, and their abilities are far superior to ordinary people. They have even reached a level similar to or even higher than that of some senior officers in our Heads of Guard who have undergone years of rigorous training and life and death training?"
"For example, their second heart!"
"This is a completely self-sustaining implanted organ that can not only speed up the blood supply, but also maintain complete physiological functions when the recipient's original heart is damaged, speed up his blood, make his body temperature higher, and then be able to function again when the recipient's original heart is damaged.
Survive oxygen deprivation or severe trauma!”
"Of course, because he has two hearts, it makes him more difficult to be beaten to death!"
"And the bone strengthener!"
"It is a tubular organ, and its small size accommodates a very complex structure. The key is that the bone-strengthening organ can monitor and secrete hormones that affect epiphyseal healing and bone ossification?"
"That's really amazing!"
"After our scanning and analysis, its main function is to promote the absorption of certain special compounds in food by bone tissue, because the long bones in its body have been significantly strengthened and the chest has been extremely skeletonized. The entire ribs have grown directly into bone plates.
Moreover, they are intertwined and overlapped to form an integrated whole, which can comprehensively increase the size and strength of the recipient's bones, making it difficult for other key organs and internal organs in his chest to be damaged."
"And the muscle-strengthening organ..."
In this way, under the bored gaze of a bad little girl, the Head of State, and Darius's attentive listening, the doctor excitedly shared what he learned after researching, and scanned the Astartes Space Marines.
Different organs were introduced one by one.
For example, a blood-reconstructing organ, a dark fleshy organ similar to a liver, a nerve node implanted in the brain through a hole in the occipital bone at the back of the skull, and a second large and powerful pre-set stomach located between the cervical and thoracic vertebrae.
Four nerve sheaths in the spinal cord, an additional third gray tubular organ 'lung', a bullet-shaped visual control organ at the base of the brain, ears with enhanced hearing, some weird meninges on top of the cerebral cortex, a black hemisphere
Weird organs that control skin color, brown-red heart-shaped blood circulation and filtering organs (multiple kidneys), taste monitoring nerves implanted in the back of the mouth, sweat gland improving organs in the lower part of the intestinal tissue, energy cells located next to the salivary glands in the lower lip
Glands that secrete certain toxins, one located in the neck and one deep in the chest, a hardened carapace under the skin that looks like a black plastic film but spreads all over the body, and so on!
Anyway!
In the view of the doctor and other researchers, the obviously different physical changes and super strength of the Astartes Space Marines of the Terra Empire were due to the above-mentioned various inhuman transformations and weirdness.
It is caused by the implantation of genetic organs with magical functions.
"That is to say..."
"Can they mass-produce these genetically modified warriors, the so-called Astartes Space Marines?"
Darius frowned and asked, immediately realizing the seriousness of the problem.
After all, the previous melee, especially when the opponent was at a disadvantage in terms of numbers and equipment, was fought vigorously, and the result of calmly retreating after leaving only more than a hundred corpses and a dozen prisoners was truly amazing.
It's his turn.
Because even if you switch to an elite member of the Heads of Guard, you cannot do better than the other party under the same circumstances! The Heads of Guard is the elite of the human army in the sector, and it requires a lot of training, actual combat, practice and selection.
obtained, but the other party directly used the transformation technology to obtain it. In comparison, the price/performance ratio seems to be even better than that of their star sector?
Naturally, this was only comparing the physical fitness and individual strength of those warriors. As for other aspects, he did not make any comparisons. After all, he knew that no matter how strong the individual strength was, he would still be afraid of nail bullets.
Various missiles, energy weapons and even fusion strikes!
"In principle, that's right!"
"But we haven't fully studied how they were transformed. We just have a rough idea..."
"However, one thing we already know is that intercepting their genes does not seem to be of much use. It cannot be cracked in a short time. Moreover, the transformation is too crazy. Their genetic organs are only fragments. They seem to be the source of
To a strong individual?"
"The insect swarm probably doesn't like this kind of thing. They prefer a certain excellent paragraph in the biological gene, rather than the genetic organ that has no value for fusion and optimization. After all, the insect swarm also has its own physical body.
As for the direction of evolution, you also know that if necessary, the individual combat power of the queen evolved by the swarm itself is no weaker than the 'god' that ordinary people think of it?"
After thinking about it, the doctor could only smile awkwardly and replied in advance before Darius asked a question. At the same time, he did not forget to deny what Darius had told them before that they wanted to obtain and copy the other party's question.
Plan to breed Space Marine genes.
"Is that so?"
"But no matter what, their warriors can indeed be produced in batches, and it is an indisputable fact that in terms of individual strength, some of them are as capable as the strongest human troops in our sector."
"If it's a close combat..."
"In the Head of Guard, except for the elite warriors with anger under our legion and the guys under Galen who use the Holy Light, the ordinary troops are probably no match for them, right?"
After pondering for a while, Darius smiled bitterly, shook his head and sighed with a headache.
The subspace demons and Necrontyrs on this Canopy star are already difficult enough, but they have to face a group of melee combatants and individuals with superior strength, and they will also use various equipment and advanced weapons.
At the same time, there was the Terra Empire, which had a very large fleet. He didn't even know what to say.
"It's indeed possible!"
"But there is absolutely no need for us to engage in close combat with them!"
First he opened his mouth, then the doctor thought for a while, and finally retorted carefully, somewhat dumbfounded:
"General!"
"In comparison, our human race is still better at long-range shooting and artillery bombing operations. Can't we just leave boring things like melee combat to the insect swarm and the protoss who are better at it?"
"No matter how strong these guys called Astartes are in melee combat, they can't be stronger than the protoss, right?"
Yes, in this doctor's view, it is completely unreasonable to allow Marines to engage in close combat with those Astartes Space Marines who have been genetically modified and no longer look like individuals!
Among the three tribes in the Koprulu Sector, their human race will definitely not be able to defeat the insect swarm in close combat. Countless bloody lessons before the unification of the sector have proven that once the human troops are defeated by the insect swarm, they break through the defense line and get into close range.
In a melee, you can basically declare defeat directly, and there is almost no possibility of a comeback.
Because of the human troops, except for some guys in the Heads of Guard who like to play close combat instead of doing their job, none of the other troops can guarantee that they can defeat the swarm at close range, even when the two sides are outnumbered one to one.
It’s all very difficult!
Except for the protoss!
Those noseless guys are more interested in close combat than bugs!
The protoss clan, which has an extremely long lifespan to hone their martial arts and can almost reach the extreme, is more than enough to defeat the insect swarm when the number is equal or even far inferior to the insect swarm. Therefore, in the parliament of the three races in the star district,
The Protoss Templars' melee combat capabilities are undoubtedly the strongest!
And now, since there are already insect swarms in the sector that are better at melee combat than humans and protoss that are even more ferocious than the insect swarms that are good at melee combat, then of course the human race has absolutely no need to care about those individual Terra Empire space warriors.
The question of strength and weakness, after all, it is a strength obtained after a cruel and even inhumane transformation, and it can be killed under a powerful fire attack, so there is nothing to envy or imitate.
"I know."
"But the problem now is that the insects and protoss can't get through!"
Shaking his head, Darius glanced at a certain head of state who was so bored that he had already walked to the operating table of the medical dormant warehouse and was minding his own operation before sighing and saying:
"The subspace here is very unstable!"
"That mirror world has seriously affected and interfered with the real physical universe. Once our actions are too large, it is difficult to predict what will happen."
"Especially now, when we lack time to develop, we have to consider the opponent's individual strength."
"You should also know that we have already had a serious conflict with the Terra Empire. Although we have temporarily stabilized the other side, I can't guarantee whether we will fight again next time!"
Although the reason for this problem was that Darius had selfish intentions and wanted to dominate this plane, after all, he had tricked himself, but no matter what, now that it had happened, he didn't want to go back.
I regret it and just want to do my best under the current conditions, nothing more.
"Well?"
Shaking his head, Darius finally saw that a certain little girl, the head of state, actually used the laser scalpel in the medical sleep chamber to cut open the neck of the sleeping Sejanus. He was a little surprised and worried.
He quickly stopped talking to the researcher, took two steps forward and asked strangely:
"Führer, what are you doing?"
"Don't kill him!"
Darius was really worried about this.
After all, this Sejanus seems to be very important to that Horus, and is one of the rare bargaining chips in their hands. If his head is messed around with, his head is cut off, he is killed, and then he is not resurrected.
, then things are probably going to get worse, which is really not what he wants to see.
"No!"
(_)
"Do not worry!"
(｀)
"I just think this organ on his neck seems a bit weird, so I want to take a closer look..."
(`)
With that said, Annie quickly completed the operation and successfully saw the weird gland on the other person's neck.
"That's the other party's genetic storage."
"Fantastic!"
"There are about a dozen types of embryonic cells in it, corresponding to the dozen or so implanted organs in the other person's body."
"We speculate that this embryonic cell should be the key to their transformation and reproduction of the Astartes Space Marines, because we have examined every prisoner and their genes, especially the genes of those organs, seem to be exactly the same.
?”
"So, this thing is similar to..."
"The fruit of a plant?"
"That is, their descendants?"
After explaining and thinking carefully, another researcher next to me finally gave a more accurate explanation.
"scare?"
!?()
"Return the fruit! Return the offspring?"
(﹏)
When she heard what kind of function it was, Annie took two steps back and became instantly uninterested.
"In other words, these weird squirrels can still give birth to children on their own?"
()
While asking, she kept wiping her hands on her clothes, as if she had touched something unclean, even if she just operated the console to cut open the other person's neck to see.
(…)
(●￣￣●)
"this……"
"It should be about the same, right?"
The doctor stepped forward and smiled awkwardly, not knowing how to explain it.
"The fruit of a plant?"
"That is to say..."
"These Space Marines, one person can reproduce two, and then reproduce indefinitely like a chain reaction?"
As he spoke, Darius couldn't help but take a breath, thinking of the other party's crazy expansion model of 'two from one, four from two, eight from four', and felt that the burden on his shoulders was getting heavier.
"Not quite!"
"It takes time for organs like theirs to mature."
"For example, right now, the 'fruits' in the neck and chest of Sejanus are not yet mature. They need about several years to develop, which is much longer than the ten months it takes for us humans to conceive!"
"Coupled with the transformation surgery and the possibility of certain failures, don't worry, General, their reproduction rate is definitely not as scary as the chain reaction you imagined!"
"Although if there is enough time, such as hundreds or even thousands of years under perfect conditions, their number can indeed reach a very scary number. After all, their lifespan is already very long, but overall they are still not as good as yours.
It’s as scary as you can imagine.”
Fortunately, the doctor thought about it for a while, and then looked at each other and exchanged some opinions with the researcher next to him before giving such a more objective and less scary statement.
"That's right!"
"fine……"
Hearing that the other party's reproduction rate was not as terrible as he thought, Darius breathed a sigh of relief.
“It’s not fun here!”
(へ╬)
"I don't want to study with you here on this weird guy who can give birth to his own children!"
(ω‖)
"goodbye!"
()
However, seeing that there seemed to be nothing interesting here, Anne finally became impatient. Then, regardless of what the two people wanted to study and discuss, she just turned around and left the disgusting person without looking back.
graduate School.
