1958. The fog gradually opens (Part 2)
"Oh... Look how sad you are crying. It looks like you know her?" A female Xilu people infected person suddenly spoke, her voice was very hoarse and dull, not like the sound coming from the vocal cords, but more like some kind of air sac.
"You devil!! I'm going to kill you!!!" Several Xilu people survivors on the city wall were extremely angry. They picked up their weapons, but still did not pull the trigger.
"Haha... hurry up and shoot? Kill your daughter, kill your wife... In this way, the hatred in your heart will be alleviated, right?" Xilu people The infected person sneered.
Then it took a step forward and suddenly ripped off one of its hands! Then he turned it over, and some brown sludge suddenly flowed out from the broken part of the arm!
"Look... I have eaten all of your daughter's body. It's hard for me to tell you how it tastes, but I can only say that for a Xilu people, this is a slow and painful process." As the Xilu people infected person said, he lowered his head, bit off a finger from the torn off arm, and then ate it!
"No!!!!" The Xilu people survivors on the city wall let out a painful and angry scream. They finally fired again, and the dense bullets immediately tore all the infected people into pieces!
Such a tragic scene made Shepard feel angry, but she still remained calm. She turned to Ashley Williams and said, "Did you see it? What is Mongar Mongar doing?"
"It's toying with these people, it's causing their anger and sadness... It clearly has the ability to kill all those who resist, but it chooses to torture them slowly..." Ashley Williams said.
Senluo looked at this scene and said coldly, "For it, torturing these people is more important than eating them."
"Meng Gal - Meng Gal... is an intelligent creature! It is not a monster that relies on instinct to act!" Shepard said, "This shows that its purpose of entering the civilized world is to invade, not to eat or reproduce."
"Does it make a difference?" Ashley Williams asked.
"The biggest difference is... there are Homeworld intelligent creatures." Shepard's eyes were sharp, "So, where is the Homeworld that is Gal-Gal?"
"Find its Homeworld and destroy it so that we can be completely safe." Senluo said.
At this time, the communication was connected, and the voice of another Ghost Agent Reaper came, "I am already in place. This is an arena, filled with Xilu peoples. They always maintain a sitting posture and do not move much until their bodies rot."
"As we have discovered, Meng Gal-Meng Gal infects these people out of purpose rather than instinct." Shepard said, "Are the planned things ready?"
"Get ready, high-explosive bombs, plus a holographic light and shadow show." Reaper said.
"What's the distance?" Senluo asked from the side.
"It is 150 kilometers away from you in a straight line. I can confirm that even if a nuclear bomb is detonated here, you will not know it." Reaper said.
"Let's start!" Shepard nodded.
150 kilometers away, Ghost Agent, who was in stealth mode, pressed the button.
boom!!!! An extremely violent explosion suddenly exploded from a corner of the arena, and countless Xilu people infected people flew into the sky along with countless Shale rubbles! Not only that, the high-power holographic projection projected countless figures, creating an image of an army pressing into the situation and countless robots starting to attack!
At the same time, on the Shepard side, those Mongolian Gal-Mongol Gal infected people who were torturing the survivors suddenly stopped and all turned back to look in the direction of the explosion!
Then, they began to retreat slowly and in an organized manner.
"This is an individual. At least on this planet." Shepard said.
"Gestalt consciousness?" Ashley Williams frowned.
"I don't know, I always feel that something is not right... Anyway, call the fleet. Before the fleet comes, let's communicate with this group of survivors." Shepard walked out of the hiding place, and under the cover of the cloaking device, ran towards the group of grieving survivors.
The group of survivors had completely fallen into despair. When a human appeared in front of them, apart from their initial panic, after Shepard explained their purpose, they also calmly accepted this race that was at war with their civilization.
During the communication with them, Shepard also learned a lot of things. First of all, the behavior of Meng Gal-Meng Gal is indeed very purposeful. Most of the time, it will use those infected as carriers to act. Although they themselves have certain mobility capabilities, it is still inconvenient.
Secondly, Meng Gal-Meng Gal are keen on slowly killing their targets, enjoying the target's despair and pain in the process. But one thing is that those survivors believe that Meng Gal-Meng Gal cannot obtain the memories of the people who were eaten by them. Meng Gal-Meng Gal will use the bodies of their relatives and friends to torture their the Will, but in those conversations, the other party does not know about the deceased.
In addition, those infected can drive, use weapons, and even fly spaceships. But these abilities are all learned by Meng Gal-Meng Gal himself, rather than through the memory of the infected person.
As for the origin of Meng Gal-Meng Gal, these people can only give some guesses.
They only knew that before, the main fleet of Admiral Lepix was stationed on this planet called Kruda, but a few months later they had to bite the bullet and launch a general attack on Levik planet due to supply problems.
But the strange thing is that after the main fleet left, this squadron came to Kruda planet. After that, Mongolian Gal-Mongolian Gal infection began to appear in some places, and it spread very quickly, almost occupying the entire planet in less than a month.
As for the method of infecting the entire planet, these survivors believe it may be through a spacecraft. Because in the first few days when the squadron came to Kruda planet, they took off fighter jets and transport ships very frequently and came to the ground. However, after the complete outbreak of Mongolian Gal-Mongolian Gal, they rarely took off.
Kruda planet only has four very large cities, as well as some surrounding small affiliated towns. This relatively concentrated layout also gives Mongolian Gal-Mongolian Gal the soil for rapid spread.
"Now it can actually be inferred that Meng Gal-Meng Gal came with this squadron. But the question is... who infected the squadron?" Ashley Williams pondered.
"There is only one way..." Shepard said, "Board on their battleship and search for Navigation Log!"
