I REALLY DIDN'T MEAN TO BE THE SAVIOUR OF THE WORLD
Chapter 965 - Chapter 965: Chapter 599: Chen Feng's Awakening_1Chapter 965: Chapter 599: Chen Feng’s Awakening_1
The alarm came abruptly, even the command center did not respond in time.
The enemy used a type of spatial traversal technique that humans had never seen before. It wasn’t a jump, nor was it warp flight, nor was it the latest artificial wormhole technology.
During its activation, it did not release any radiation or energy fluctuations. The enemy ships appeared directly in this deadly position as if they were originally there and had simply been overlooked by humanity.
Both humans and their instruments had a cognitive bias, and the laws of cosmic space were being tampered with.
This twisted illusion almost made the minds of the fleet intelligence staff collapse.
Commander Quentin Cooper quickly calmed down and began formulating a completely new combat plan and issued tactical arrangements for Tiffany Bell’s squad specifically.
There were three urgent tasks he gave to Tiffany Bell’s team.
First, quickly arrange a folding space-type shield to block the enemy’s communication; second, spare no effort to kill the enemy while testing their capabilities, and find every possible way to block them from breaking through the fleet’s outer concealment; third, buy time for the other teams to respond.
However, before Quentin could send out the tasks, the intelligence department had already received information sent back from the front lines.
Tiffany Bell made an on-the-spot decision.
White Elephant, Mountain Centipede, and Tiffany Bell rushed forward, while Elsie and Nathan Rodriguez quickly set up the first spatial shield in coordination.
Quentin clenched his fist in approval, thinking, “Nicely done.”
Then, he turned his attention to the information that Tiffany sent back.
“New weapon type, plant-based, 7.13 meters long, abilities unknown. Shape projection as follows.”
The optical image of the enemy appeared before the key personnel of the command center, the intelligence department, and the research department.
The biologist exclaimed, “How does this thing look exactly like the tardigrades on Earth?”
In front of everyone was a round, plump creature with a body like a hippopotamus, eight legs with claws at the tips, and a head like a valve core.
If it weren’t for its transparent body and its large size, the biologist would have thought it was simply a tardigrade from Earth.
The further analysis report soon came out. By calculating and analyzing the invisible light spectrum transmitted through the “tardigrade’s” transparent body under the cosmic background radiation, the scholars found that there was a reaction of ZS bacteria colonies inside it.
At the same time, most of the organic reactions in its body conformed to the basic characteristics of plant life.
The conclusion came: this was a new type of weapon created by the Compound-Eyed Observer after absorbing the physiological characteristics of the Earth’s tardigrades, incorporating ZS bacteria, and finally hatching through the giant vine’s fruit.
Instantly, the command center shared this information with the special combat team at the front.
In addition to the known information in the intelligence report, there were many inferential conclusions drawn by tactical advisors based on the characteristics of the Earth’s tardigrades.
For example, it could survive and function in a vacuum, and its body surface was covered with a water film.
Through the properties of the water film, the tardigrade could enter a cryptobiotic state in the face of extremely harsh environments, absorb external substances, including DNA, and incorporate them into its own body, using them as energy and raw materials to repair its own DNA.
At the same time, it naturally had a frightening tolerance to radiation, high temperatures, ultra-low temperatures, and high pressure.
The ZS bacteria’s modification would certainly not be in vain, so the scholars’ conjectures about the “Crystal Tardigrade’s” capabilities that Tiffany Bell’s team currently faced were amplified by countless times.
The timely arrival of new intelligence saved Mountain Centipede’s life.
Eager to make merits, Mountain Centipede got too close and unleashed a barrage of firepower after rushing forward.
It seemed that he easily wounded the Crystal Tardigrade all over its body.
However, just as he was about to close the distance further, he received the new intelligence.
Then, a warning flashed through his mind, and he decisively retreated.
Only then did he realize that the Crystal Tardigrades he had wounded earlier had quickly recovered fully, and their size had swollen even more, seemingly absorbing the energy carried by the weapon system he fired at them.
Tiffany Bell shouted angrily at Mountain Centipede to stay calm and relayed the three-dimensional map of energy flow captured by the T100 Armor Detection System to the intelligence network.
The energy flow map showed that indeed, there were high-energy reactions when Mountain Centipede’s gunfire hit the Crystal Tardigrade, but after a brief expansion, only a small part of it spread, and most of it evaporated like a mud cow entering the sea.
Even the energy that spread out seemed to be siphoned away like the water flow around a whirlpool.
According to the energy level contours, the Crystal Tardigrade reduced the energy level in its nearby area by three stages.
Basic energies such as heat, radiation, and quantum tidal energy scattered throughout the universe would flow towards the Crystal Tardigrade automatically, like water flowing to a lower place.
Even if the human armor remained completely still, doing nothing, just being close would cause the energy batteries to drain automatically, and the closer they got, the faster the energy would drain.
In just a few seconds of contact, Mountain Centipede’s armored energy reserves had lost an additional 12%.
However, his armor’s self-check did not give any warning. Mountain Centipede found through manual inspection that, as the energy drained, multiple parameters such as over-electricity, potential, and the reaction intensity of the antimatter energy module had all slid down by 12%. The overall performance of his armor had been reduced, so the armor’s automatic inspection equipment did not detect any abnormalities.
