Halo Universe.

After debugging the system, Zeratul led the reconnaissance team through the portal to the invaded universe.

As soon as he stepped into the space of the Halo universe, Zeratul's keen psychic power detected a hint of unusual aura. Although it was very weak, it did exist.

"Entering submarine mode, target Reach."

After ordering the fleet to activate stealth, Zeratul decided to head to Reach first.

After all, from the perspective of intelligence, since the entry point is the Battle of Reach, there must be a reason for it.

The fleet disappeared safely into the universe in an instant. Not long after Zeratul left, a detection signal arrived at the place where they had just stayed.

After scanning the area fourteen times, the detection signal left the area.

Not long after the signal wave left, the shadow of a warship suddenly appeared in the void.

"Have you figured it out?"

"From the source of the signal, it seems to be coming from the so-called Star Alliance. However, from a technological perspective, it doesn't seem like something the Star Alliance can master."

The copies of Zeratul and Zheng Gan appeared in the same place.

This was also the policy they set at the beginning. They just wanted to give it a try, but they didn't expect to gain so much.

Hearing Zheng Gan say this, Zeratul also became interested.

"So the problem lies with the Covenant?"

“It’s hard to say, but there’s definitely a connection.”

Zheng Gan also analyzed the detection signal through the small treasury and got some clues.

This is a biological wave, somewhat similar to the Zerg in StarCraft, but much more perfect than the Zerg.

"The Flood?"

That shouldn't be the case. At the time of the Battle of Reach, the Flood hadn't invaded High Charity yet. Besides, the Flood shouldn't let the cosmic consciousness come out to find them.

The setting of the Halo universe is somewhat similar to that of StarCraft. The Flood in Halo was created by the Forerunners, and the Zerg in StarCraft was created by Amon.

The Pioneers and the Xel'Naga are both creator-like beings. Apart from their combat power, their settings are similar.

"Zeratul, you lead half of the fleet to High Charity, the capital of the Covenant, to investigate the situation. I will take the rest to Reach. Something is amiss."

Zeratul, who knew the plot, also understood what Zheng Gan meant. He guessed that the invading thing should have used some mechanism in reverse.

"learn."

"Be careful in everything."

......

Reach.

Under the suppression of the Covenant COS super aircraft carrier, the Long Night, the human fleet on Reach was defeated.

This super aircraft carrier, which is 28.960km long and 11.447km wide, is completely beyond the ability of the human fleet of the Halo Universe to withstand.

The collapse of the human fleet also marked the ultimate failure of this battle.

Zheng Gan, who led the fleet to the Reach star region in stealth, immediately saw a large number of starship wreckage floating in the orbit of Reach.

But unlike ordinary alloy debris, these debris are now covered with a strange creature that is devouring them.

"Wow, good guy!"

I thought it would take some time to discover something, but I didn't expect it to be so explicit right away?

Zheng Gan was 100% certain that these strange creatures devouring the alloy on the wreckage were definitely not products of the Halo universe.

"So it's an invasion of alien creatures?"

After talking to himself for a while, Zheng Gan ordered the fleet to fly towards the interior of Reach, after all, that was the main battlefield.

As soon as he entered the atmosphere, Zheng Gan saw the cool Long Night.

This super aircraft carrier is half the size of the Spear of Adun. Although the weapons it is equipped with are a bit confusing, its jump engine is still good.

"Sindulla, can you lead a small team to take over that aircraft carrier?"

He asked a young Dark Templar behind him.

The Dark Templar who was named immediately stepped forward and said respectfully:

"I guarantee the mission will be accomplished, Officer."

Rather than letting such a large super aircraft carrier be blown up by the noble squadron, it would be better for him to take it into his possession.

Those useless Covenant guys are no match for the Protoss.

"Remember to pay attention to special circumstances. In times of crisis, I allow you to use a small psychic disruptor."

"Yes, sir!"

Looking at Syndulla who led part of the fleet to "infiltrate" the Long Night, Zheng Gan waved his hand.

"Let's go meet our human friends down there."

The battlefield on the ground is far more brutal than in the original novel. A large number of alien creatures similar to the Flood are slaughtering this human planet.

After casually killing a strange species with a light blade, Zheng Gan also began to analyze what this creature was.

"Go search the area to see if there are any survivors. Remember not to expose your target, just strike in secret."

The Dark Templar's stealth skills are extremely suitable for carrying out various infiltration, reconnaissance and assassination plans. They are simply invaluable.

"Xiao Jinku, analyze the composition of this body."

Look at the corpse on the ground. From the appearance, it still retains some human characteristics, but other parts are completely weird and indescribable.

"Scanning, please wait."

"Scan successful, the results are as follows"

Name: Alien (tentative)

Race: Human (47%), unknown gene sequence 1 (12%), unknown gene sequence 2 (36%), unknown gene sequence 3 (5%).

Analysis: Clumsy and crude genetic modification, it seems to be an extended sequence of some source gene, and is highly infectious.

Comment: I sensed it. I sensed His call.

???

Judging from the analysis, it is just a modified version of the Flood, but what the hell is this evaluation?

He?

Evil God? Or something else?

Zheng Gan was confused while still thinking about what this analysis meant.

Suddenly, another alien appeared behind him and pounced on him.

Bang!

A beam of electromagnetic light shot out from behind Zheng Gan and hit the alien.

"Get out of here now."

A male voice came from behind Zheng Gan. Turning around, Zheng Gan saw several super Spartan warriors in power armor looking at him.

"Why haven't you evacuated with the main force yet?"

You have to know that the body of an infected human will mutate immediately, so people like Zheng Gan who maintain normal human form and consciousness are normal people in their eyes.

“…”

I didn't expect to meet the protagonists of Reach so soon. Just as Zheng Gan was about to speak, he saw a large number of aliens suddenly appear behind them.

Someone from the crowd immediately came to Zheng Gan and protected him behind him.

"Brothers, get to work."
