Chapter 567 Meeting
The plan to delay the Reaper using the Blood Moon has been successful to a certain extent.
The reason for this is a certain degree is also very simple.
That is...there are too many of the Reapers fleets.
Originally, Duanmu Huai thought that this might make the reapers stop, but the reapers'' fleet almost did not react too much, but added a few more warships to deal with the Blood Moon - after all, there were too many warships, so just go up directly.
This is very annoying.
Moreover, Duanmu Huai also discovered the defects of Blood Moon.
Simply put, Blood Moon, as the ultimate aggregate, does have a considerable degree of combat effectiveness. However, this combat power is limited.
After all, the ultimate form of Blood Moon is only as big as an asteroid. Of course, according to this defense, ordinary warships cannot get rid of them.
The reason is also very simple, the firepower is insufficient.
Then, if the firepower is sufficient, Blood Moon will be a living target.
This is how it is against the Reapers.
The Reaper''s firepower is stronger than the fleet here. Although one or two ships will not have any impact on Blood Moon, if they do not talk about martial ethics, the Blood Moon will be really done. After all, Blood Moon does not have the ability to attack long-rangely. They can only shake their tentacles like jellyfish to attack the enemy. Therefore, as long as the warships are located outside the attack range of Blood Moon, and if the firepower is strong enough, it is not a problem to kill Blood Moon without injury.
Of course, if it is a creature, it will suffer a round of mental attacks against the Blood Moon, but the Reapers are all fusion bodies... Just like the dolls under Duanmu Huai, mental attacks are ineffective against them at all.
But Duanmuhuai''s original purpose was achieved.
As mentioned before, the harvesters harvest civilized races not simply eliminate them, but will collect them and then transform and integrate them to increase the number on their own side. It can be said that the battleships of the Reapers are all made by the corpses of the racial civilization they harvested - the essence of the Blood Moon.
That''s right, Duanmu Huai creates a blood moon to grab the harvester''s business, and the facts prove that this is indeed a very useful method.
If the harvester wants to transform his prey, he either catches them first and then transforms them, or pierces the body on a metal pillar and turns into a corpse puppet.
In short, some relatively scientific methods are used.
However, the transformation of corpse variants is not scientific, and the conversion speed is faster than that of T virus, so the harvester can''t grab people from Blood Moon. Even if the Reaper finally destroyed the Blood Moon, the corpse variants inside were destroyed, and naturally nothing would be left behind. In this way, the harvester will not be able to replenish the source of troops on the spot.
It is also because of this that once the blood moon appears, the harvester will immediately concentrate his strength to attack it, which gives Duanmu Huai a chance to kill them together.
At this time, the Wanyi giant ship should be on the stage.
I have to say that the Wanyi giant ship built by the Kabars is very good. Destroying the entire galaxy by detonating stars is much more convenient than explosions one by one. Of course, because of this, Duanmu Huai usually does not use the Wanyi giant ship casually - after all, it cannot be detonated in human galaxies.
But now it’s different. Whether it’s Asari, Turi, or Serari or other alien races, they are all alien aliens, not humans. So it is no pressure for Duanmu Huai to catch it all in one go. In addition, the Blood Moon has poor attack power and its defense power is not low, so every time the Blood Moon appears, the Reaper has to send thousands of warships to deal with it. What Duanmu Huai has to do is to summon Wanyi''s giant ship to ignite the stars in that galaxy after the Reaper blows up the Blood Moon.
In this way, all the fish that missed the net can be killed in one go.
After Duanmuhuai turned all the galaxies of the castle races, the Reaper''s fleet also suffered heavy losses, and those alien alien races were on the verge of extinction. After all, even if some of them are lucky enough to escape the massacre of Blood Moon and Reapers, they can definitely not escape the collapse of the entire galaxy caused by the explosion of stars.
Of course, thanks to this, the star maps in the future will probably be repainted... Well, this has nothing to do with Duanmu Huai.
Let’s give Star Alliance’s astronomers a headache.
Anyway, it’s not my own hair that has been lost.
He has no hair to lose.
Hahahahahaha, is this a joke?
Hahahahahahaha…MMP.
Forget it, no matter what, after this series of actions, the number of Reapers'' fleets was reduced by one third. Although the remaining number is even more troublesome, at least in this way, it is at least a quantity that can be dealt with.
I guess so.
Then next... it is almost the head-on battle between humans and the Reapers.
The light flashed before my eyes.
Walking out of the portal and looking at the magnificent and magnificent starry sky outside the window in front of him, Mary couldn''t help but breathe. Although it was not the first time she came to the Inquisition mothership, every time she saw this scene, Mary was intoxicated. To be honest, if it weren''t for the sake of keeping the secret, she would have really wanted to take Charlie and Asherika to take a look.
But...it seems a bit lively today? ?
Looking at the surrounding corridor, although it was as quiet as ever, there seemed to be noise from the amusement room not far away, which made Mary a little curious. So she couldn''t help but walk to the amusement room, then reached out to knock on the door, and then Lorena''s voice rang out.
"Ah, please come in."
"Sorry for disturbing."
As he spoke, Mary pushed open the door and walked into the room.
Then, she saw Lorena and... a few strange girls.
At this moment, they were sitting on the sofa, holding teacups, looking like they were chatting. Lorena also sat inside, beside her was wearing a black Gothic dress and long silver-white hair, Duanmu Huai once introduced her to Mary, saying that she was her very important companion.
Opposite these two people was a girl with long brown hair and full of vitality. Next to the brown hair, there was a girl with short hair. They were wearing the same uniform and looked like students from a certain school, but the girl with short red hair had a pair of strange wings behind her back - looking carefully, there were horns on her head and a fat and long tail under her skirt?
On the other side, a girl with long light blue hair and horns and tail was lying on the blanket boredly, staring at the computer in front of her and wondering what she was doing.
Fortunately, Mari followed Duanmu Huai for a long time and had seen more strange people, so she was not particularly surprised.
“Ah, Miss Mary!”
Seeing Mary come in, Lorena waved to her happily, letting Mary come to her side, and then she looked at the others and spoke.
"This is Miss Mary Clarissa Christie."
"Ah, it''s the locals of that world, right?"
“That’s right, right…”
After introducing Mary to everyone, Lorena introduced Mary again.
"Miss Mary, this is the princess of Manalia - An. Next to her is Miss Gureya, the princess of Regnis... You can see Miss Gureya''s tail and wings. In fact, she is a mixed race between dragons and humans, and is a dragon human race. Ah, by the way, Miss Feilin over there is also a member of the dragon human race."
"Hey?"
"Your Highness, Princess?"
This really scared Mary. She was just a middle-class lady and never said she had the right to meet Her Highness the Princess. And now these two people are all His Highness Princess?
"Hello, Miss Mary, I''m An."
Facing the surprised Mary, Ann waved her hand with a smile, and Gureya nodded slightly to her.
"I''m Gureya, hello."
"Okay."
Feilin, who was lying on the other side, raised her hand weakly and waved it, just treating it as saying hello.
"Ah, yes, that, it''s not a great honor to meet you..."
At this moment, Mary''s whole body was stiff and her mind was even blank. How to say it, it was like visiting a friend, but accidentally met a big shot like the president of a country, and she had no idea how to deal with it.
"Don''t be so careful. I heard from Lorena that she has joined the court, right? Then we are companions. We don''t have to speak so constrainedly, but it makes people uncomfortable when I hear it."
“Ah, it’s……”
While nodding, Mary sat down carefully, and the maid also brought a cup of black tea. As if to dispel Mary''s anxiety, Lorena also took the initiative to chat with her.
"Speaking of this, it''s rare to see Miss Mary come here. Is there anything wrong?"
“Ah, yes.”
Hearing Lorena’s inquiry, Marie also came to her senses and took the paper bag at hand.
"Actually, my first novel has been published..."
"Hey? It''s so fast!"
That''s right, this is the reason why Mary came here. The first novel she wrote was based on the old man who turned into a zombie by the lakeside as the theme. She joined several publishers and finally one publisher was willing to publish it. Because of the short stories, the first one would add drawings and print a thousand copies in total... Well, of course, the number is not large, but for Mary, this was a small start.
"Ms. Lorena wants to see it?"
“Yeah, I want to see it!”
Lorena excitedly took the book handed over by Mary and began to read it carefully.
"Wow, are there illustrations inside?"
"Well, because there are not many words, the publisher thinks that adding some illustrations is easier to sell... To be honest, because of this reason, the price of books is not very cheap. I originally thought that the price should be as cheap as possible for most people to read, but the publisher said... It is because of this price that requires setting. When people have taken this book, they will be curious about why this kind of book is priced at this price, which will make them interested in reading, and as long as they have interest, they will buy it... although I don''t quite understand."
"I see."
Hearing this, An Shen nodded with consent.
"Indeed, the publisher''s strategy is very correct. Blindly reducing the price is just to belittle its own value. If others sell it at a price that is not distressed, they can indeed sell it. But the other party may not necessarily read it. On the other hand, at least this price can ensure that people who buy it will read it carefully..."
"is that so?"
"It''s almost the same. What is written in it? It''s what Lorena said before, are you taking risks in that world?"
"Ah, um...but some places may be a bit exaggerated, and I''m worried that Mr. Duanmu will be angry..."
Even if the publisher wants to publish it, the manuscript cannot be changed. For the publisher, Mary''s novels have a good grasp of the atmosphere and story rhythm, and only the character creation needs to be changed.
Yes, there is only one person who needs to be changed, that is Duanmu Huai.
In this story, Mari herself appeared as the second assistant, Lorena was the first assistant, and Duanmu Huai was the eldest. But at the end of the original story, Mary wanted Duanmu Huai to lean towards Sherlock Holmes. Simply put, she hoped to let readers see Duanmu Huai''s brave and resourceful appearance.
But the editor believes that this is a bit too hard to go. Since the previous one has portrayed this person as a fierce and terrifying appearance, then he will simply portray his actions even more fierce and terrifyingly in the end. After all, when readers first saw the description of his appearance, they had already guessed that he was a fierce and terrifying person. So how fierce is he? The editor thinks that it can be written boldly at the end of the story... makes the readers feel unexpectedly fierce...
So Mary had to bite the bullet and change it.
But she was not sure if Duanmuhuai would like this ending, so she showed it to Duanmuhuai after it was published.
Although Mary was nervous, she...
“There is no problem at all.”
At the end of the reading, Lorena gave her own answer.
"Hey? Is it okay?"
"Yes, I feel that I''m a little more restrained than the usual knight."
“…………”
That''s still called restraint? Mary felt that she was almost writing Duanmu Huai as some kind of beast.
"Hey? I want to watch it too!"
"Ah, please..."
At this time, An couldn''t wait to come over, took the book, and then leaned side by side with Gureya, turning it over.
After reading it, their thoughts were...
"Hey? Mr. Duanmu is not so gentle."
"No problem, after all, Mr. Duanmu usually fights... is even more fierce than this..."
"…………Why???"
Hearing this, Mary was completely confused.
