2186. Ridiculous possibility

"She actually ran there?" Tang Xiao frowned, "No wonder we lost contact before. But... why are we in contact again now?"

"This is one of the messages she sent." He Ru said, "She is currently on a planet called Xyala. This planet has been completely devoured by Meng Gal-Meng Gal, but Xiala planet's civilization once built a huge hyperspace signal relay station. Now Shepard and the small number of troops she brought from Crakull planet are desperately holding on to Xiala planet. She hopes that we can go to reinforce it as soon as possible."

At this time, BIG-BOSS said, "But now there is a very real problem - how can you be sure that Shepard is not controlled by Meng Gal-Meng Gal, and then set a trap to lure us over?"

Lieutenant General He Ru shook his head and said, "To be honest, I'm not sure. That's why I need to ask Supreme Operations Command for instructions."

"If it's just a question of reinforcements, are you kidding me when I mention Supreme Operations Command?" Army General Xian Hui said coldly, his expression not angry or threatening.

Lieutenant General He Ru quickly unfolded the sent coordinates and displayed the route data. "According to the coordinate data Shepard gave us, the Xiala planet she is in cannot be reached by normal means. Even if we start from Unknown Regions, the former Ssi-ruuvi Imperium capital Levik planet where we are currently stationed, hundreds of hyperspace jumps are needed, and this number is still changing at any time."

He continued to zoom in on the data, showing the complex environment around Xiala planet, "Let alone the vicinity of Xyala system. Xyala system is orbiting a super-massive Blackhole. There are tens of thousands of galaxies around it. That area is equivalent to a huge star system inside the Milky Way. It is very weird and very dangerous. I can't even understand how Shepard and their Normandy got there."

"What's the conclusion?" Xian Hui asked.

"The conclusion is that if you want to send reinforcements there, currently, except for Endless-class Super Carrier personally dispatching it, there is no second spacecraft that can get there." He Ru said.

Everyone present looked at each other and fell into silence.

"Grand Duke, with all due respect, if only super battleships like Eternity can go to reinforce Shepard, the bet would be too big. We currently have no way of knowing Shepard is not controlled, and the messages she sent are only text, not even sound," Commander of the Navy Matt-Hona said to Tang Xiao.

Tang Xiao thought for a moment and said, "Is there any other news?"

He Ru nodded and replied, "In addition, Shepard Commander said that in the hands of Korlok, the aborigine of Crakull planet, there is a piece called 'Mind-harp' It is said that when this artifact is activated, it will generate an energy field that can completely isolate all signals on a planet. She believes that this energy field can also completely isolate the control of Meng Gal-Meng Gal's core."

"Then why doesn't she use it?" Tang Xiao asked coldly.

"Mind-harp is controlled by Elder Council of Crakull planet, and they refuse to lend it. At the same time, this artifact cannot be activated." He Ru said.

"This is simply ridiculous!" Volgograd-Kanidi couldn't sit still. "Since the artifact cannot be activated, how did she know the effect of this artifact. Did she do experiments on Meng Gal-Meng Gal?"

Lieutenant General He Ru shook his head and said, "No. She heard about the effect of the artifact. It was told to her by an old man Korlok. The old man said that this artifact had been activated before and isolated all energy including stellar radiation. From this, it can be judged that this effect may also be useful for Meng Gal-Meng Gal."

"For such a baseless possibility, we have to board a Endless-class Super Carrier?" Volgograd-Kanidi said coldly, "This is ridiculous!"

Chief of Staff Qi Jian asked, "So, what is Shepard's suggestion for this Mind-harp artifact?"

He Ru said, "Her suggestion is to send reinforcements as soon as possible. After receiving her, kill Crakull planet directly. If Elder Council does not cooperate, then seize the artifact by force. At the same time, because This artifact was last activated in Rafa system Planet Five, so she hopes that we will immediately send an exploration team to Rafa system to conduct research and find the secret of Mind-harp."

Qi Jian asked again, "So assuming all this goes well, our reinforcements arrive at Xiala planet, rescue Shepard's predicament, and return to Crakull planet to seize Mind-harp, and also find a way to activate Mind-harp, then what? What are we going to do?"

Speaking of which, He Ru's forehead was covered in cold sweat. He sighed and said, "Then, Shepard thinks we need to kill Meng Gal-Meng Gal directly. The core home planet of Moog-Faror. Defeat Rotten Star Ring around the planet Moog-Faror, and then activate Mind-harp at the core of Mon Gal-Mongolian Gal."

Qi Jian was still very patient and continued to ask, "Okay, let's not talk about this Rotten Star Ring for the time being... There are still two problems that need to be solved here. First, are the coordinates of the Mugg-Faroo planet accurate? Second, even if we arrive at the Mugg-Faroo planet, this is a planet. We have to find the core of Mongolian Gal-Mongolian Gal on a planet? Can it be located?"

He Ru shook his head and said nothing.

Now that the matter has been said, it is useless to say anything. This is simply a fairy tale... and fairy tales cannot exist in the real world.

Qi Jian also sighed, looked at Tang Xiao, shook his head and said, "Grand Duke, if things develop like this, I'm afraid we can no longer describe it with words like 'adventure', 'gamble', and 'stud'. In addition to the myths and legends in the movie, what else can satisfy so many prerequisites at the same time, and then achieve the only possibility of success among countless possibilities of failure?"

Tang Xiao was sitting there, like a sculpture, cold and majestic.

After a long time, he slowly said, "He Ru, ask your Endless-class Super Carrier to set off immediately and go to Xiala planet to reinforce Shepard. Then at Xiala planet is fortified to ensure smooth communication. Notify Head of Military Intelligence Salatan-Morse and immediately organize the strongest intelligence force to investigate Rafa system."

"Grand Duke!"

"This can't work Grand Duke!" Almost everyone around them was shocked, and they quickly tried to stop it.

But Tang Xiao just said lightly, "Because, she is Shepard."
