The transport ship carrying the army and the naval fleet are preparing to return to the sector.
Those high-level officials also learned from scholars that nothing happened to Lord Tyrone and Prophet Uslan. They just landed on a very distant planet, and they were doing something.
The Iron Man mothership, which is independent of humans, has just detected another Hive Fleet, and completely followed Iron Man's preset logic to send the Iron Man fleet to clean up the Zerg.
Within Pandora, the tribe's wild spirits are already on the right track.
On the mountain range where the giant tree is located, a large sea of trees was cleared, and fortresses were built one after another.
A total of about 20,000 Eldar people have transformed from farmers and herdsmen into warriors and war material producers.
Although the Eldar are now so weak that they are like flames that can be blown out at any time in the cold wind, as war resources created by the ancient saints, they themselves have advantages similar to the green skins, with strong bodies, quick learning abilities, and mental endurance. The ability allows a woman who only picked up fruits every day a month ago to quickly learn how to ride a dragon and poke things, and adapt and accept that she will live as a warrior forever in her long life to come.
During the period before the battle begins, every night all members of the tribe will put aside all work and spend ten minutes holding a ceremony to commemorate their ancestors.
……
"Praise the great soul of the world, and praise each of our ancestors who opened up their homeland."
"Please protect us, we will fight for Pandora's survival!"
"For the souls of the ancestors in the shrine, and for this beautiful home!"
"..."
All the people of the Na'vi tribe gathered on the top of the giant tree of the World Shrine. Every adult was wearing armor, holding a weapon and leading his own dragon.
Recently, they no longer take off their armor, because war is expected to come soon.
When these Eldar performed sacrifices, the World Shrine and World Soul seemed to really know what these descendants were going to do, and responded.
Insects shining with beautiful fluorescence hovered around the trees, the gentle warm wind gently touched the skin of every Eldar, and the beasts gathered under the giant tree and screamed.
Uslan watched all this.
Although the Ark Eldar believe that the so-called soul of the world is the same thing as the infinite circuit in the Ark world, it is nothing more than a sacred place that accommodates souls, and worshiping it as a god will not be of any use.
but it is not the truth.
At least on Pandora, at least among the relatives Uslan saw, the World Soul is really useful.
While Uslan was watching this beautiful ceremony, Qin Mo came quietly behind him.
Uslan was surprised when he noticed Qin Mo's arrival, because he had never participated in the ceremony for a while. Apart from making some blood-drawing machines to extract Pandora's minerals, he flew outside the planet.
And today he actually came to the ceremony.
"The war will begin soon." Qin Mo said in a deep voice, trying his best not to disturb the current ceremony with his words, "I found a way to destroy the biological battleship on which the mother worm of the Hive Fleet was riding. If nothing goes wrong, tomorrow In the morning, a piece of biological battleship debris will fall down, and then there will be spores dropped by the Zerg all over the sky."
When Wuslan heard this, he wanted to ask Qin Mo how he did it, but he swallowed it back before he could say it.
In the Battle of Baal, a fragment of the Burning One, just a larger fragment, floated in space and threw flaming spears to kill the Zerg, ending the Queen in an instant, which would have required a huge fleet and a long void battle to solve.
It is already difficult for a mortal race to travel faster than light, but the Star God can transmit his words tens of thousands of light-years away simply by using electromagnetic force, spanning an astronomical distance of tens of thousands of light-years in an instant.
"What are our plans?" Uslan asked instead.
"It's very simple. Everyone hides in the fortress on the side of the giant tree. Then let your wild relatives organize the dragon knights to leave the fortress, charge to the location of the mother worm, and then kill the mother worm. It's that simple. You follow I will participate in this battle." Qin Mo said the plan that he had thought of for a long time.
Uslan wanted to ask if this was a little too simple.
But then he thought that this was actually very complicated for a Star God.
Ultimately, the reason why this war is fought on Pandora is simply to make the Na'vi people realize what sacrifice means and what survival means.
If it were not for the purpose of using education to invest in an ally who could devote himself to fighting the enemies of the real universe in the future, then the Hive Fleet would just be driven into a galaxy and catalyze a star into a supernova.
This hive fleet has no psychic specialties and is not here to deal with the Star Gods at all. Just like when Qin Mo was thrown into the Blackstone Fortress in the subspace, which indirectly caused Slaanesh's misfortune, the Eldar indirectly caused other The species suffered an unthinkable disaster.
As for the wild spirits on Pandora, they will sacrifice many people and shed rivers of blood, but they only need to pay these prices to learn to survive.
After thinking about it, Uslan sighed: "I am really jealous of these relatives."
The interlocutory ceremony is over.
Normally, the Eldar would have gotten up and done whatever they had to do, but they didn't today.
The young leader Tukalon stepped down from the altar and looked at Qin Mo.
His people gathered together, moved out of the way, and looked at Qin Mo as well.
"Will you take part in the coming battle?" Tu'kalon asked.
"Yes." Qin Mo nodded.
No matter how hard these wild spirits are strengthened and trained, they cannot become capable of fighting against the Zerg in a month.
It is a question whether the combat effectiveness of those dragon knights and their own dragons can match that of the most common warrior of the Eldar clan.
Letting them charge towards the female insect does not mean letting them die.
"Then you should also get your own dragon." Tukalon said, stepping aside, raising his hands high, and looking at the blue light cluster above his head.
This is a dragon-granting ceremony that belongs to these wild spirit tribes. According to them, Pandora's world soul will match each of its children with a dragon that is most compatible with it, and this dragon will establish a spiritual link with the knight.
"Forget it, I will build my own motorcycle or something." Qin Mo refused without thinking.
It's not that Qin Mo doesn't want a dragon. After all, part of the reason for the situation that caused the spirit tribe to charge against the mother insect was because he thought it was interesting.
But Qin Mo knew that he was not a wild spirit tribe on Pandora. It was still unclear whether the soul of the world would accept him, let alone give him a dragon for a person who was not affected by spiritual energy.
Chapter 672 For Pandora
"Please come." Tukalon extended his hand to Qin Mo, "Our ancestors will not refuse a person who guides us."
Qin Mo wanted to refuse, but the eyes of those wild spirit tribes fell on him, hoping that he would agree to Tukalon.
Tukalon meant well, but he was still too young to know that what he was doing was inappropriate.
Because if Qin Mo agreed and walked over, but the soul of the world rejected him and refused to give him a dragon or caused a bigger problem, it would be embarrassing.
After thinking about it, Qin Mo felt that he could not refuse the kindness of a future ally, so he walked towards Tukalon.
After arriving at the sacrificial altar, Qin Mo looked up at the fluorescence above his head, wondering whether the so-called soul of the world could see him or not.
"My ancestors." Tukalon raised the spear that symbolized the power of the tribal leader and shouted, "This distinguished guest once liberated the mother goddess of our entire race. He came to our homeland to guide us against the plunderers." He will also fight alongside us during the Eater invasion."
"he……"
Before Tukaron finished speaking, a roar came from not far away.
Then a giant dragon broke through the vines and rushed over. He walked all the way to Qin Mo and lowered his head to look at this human being who was much smaller than himself.
Qin Mo looked at the giant dragon.
This is a dragon that looks like a Tyrannosaurus rex, but has black scales all over its body. It is also larger than the Tyrannosaurus rex, with a height of about nine meters.
The giant dragon raised its head and roared, its voice shaking the entire giant tree, and then it lowered its head and lay on the ground.
"Thank you." Qin Mo glanced at the entire tree canopy, got up and mounted the dragon.
The black metal flowing like liquid emerged out of thin air in Qin Mo's hand, converging into a weapon that was the same as the spear of the Savage Spirit Dragon Knight.
Then metal emerged out of thin air and covered Qin Mo and the giant dragon, gradually forming armor and riding gear.
The Eldar present looked up at the dragon, delighted that the World Soul had accepted the guest's presence and provided him with a powerful dragon mount.
"The war will start tomorrow, and we will start preparations tonight." Qin Mo announced loudly to the spirit tribes who were looking at him, "Prove your courage in the war and prove that you are qualified to survive in this universe. , and can devote themselves to greater causes in the future.”
At this moment, Qin Mo returned to the time when he was fighting in the bottom nest in a trance.
At that time, the position was attacked by gene stealers, and Qin Mo had to say something to boost everyone's morale.
He was particularly bad at speaking, but he knew what the people fighting alongside him cared about.
"For Pandora!"
Along with a sudden thunder, Qin Mo's roar echoed throughout the forest.
"For Pandora!"
The wild spirit tribes raised their arms and shouted.
Although these Eldar are so weak that they don't even know what kind of enemy they will face, they are high-spirited and ready to face anything.
Tukalon looked at the excited tribesmen in front of him, and he remembered what the distinguished guest beside him had said.
The weak can become strong, and the ethnic group will grow stronger. Being weak is not the problem. The problem is whether an ethnic group has the determination to survive and grow at all costs.
……
The next day.
The Hive Fleet, which plunders biomass for the main combat power of the Hive Mind, is rampant throughout the star field. They work tirelessly to extract resources from one planet after another, and then store these resources in the fleet, which has evolved specifically to store biomass. in the biological ship.
The biological ships will go to the edge of the galaxy and be eaten by the hive fleet responsible for the war to strengthen themselves.
This worm hive fleet responsible for logistics was leisurely doing what it was supposed to do in the void, and the mother ship carrying the mother worms was completely unaware that something was staring at them.
Until the mothership sailed near a star with special gravity but no major problems. Then the star's special gravity suddenly changed violently, and the mothership was torn and dragged by the strange gravity.
When the Hive Mind realized that this was a gravitational trap set by some kind of transcendent being, it was already too late. The space where the mother ship was located was abnormal due to strange astronomical phenomena, and a small piece of debris where the mother ship was located suddenly disappeared in the galaxy. , when it reappeared, it came near a planet containing extremely rich biomass, and was captured by the planet's gravity and dragged to the ground.
Because the biomass content of this planet is too high, the Hive Mind, which could have produced another female insect, chose to mobilize a small part of its power to invade the planet.
On a macro scale, it looks like a black tentacle clinging to the eastern side of the Milky Way's star disk, extending a hair toward the surroundings.
On the microscopic level, the beautiful world called Pandora, the planet where the mother worm fell, was blocked by the biological battleship that blocked the sky and blocked the light of the star in an instant.
The huge biological warship approached Pandora's orbit, which would have caused celestial bodies' gravitational anomalies to cause disasters such as volcanic eruptions, but Pandora did not have any trouble due to the gravitational anomalies.
But the gravitational pull of the huge biological warship is just a prelude compared to the official invasion that will follow.
Spore airdrop pods filled with Zerg combat units fell toward the ground, accompanied by various Zerg flying combat units.
Strange clouds containing plasma form in the atmosphere. Although they cannot intercept spores, they can intercept and kill unprotected Zerg flying units.
Above the mountain fortress where the World Shrine is located, an invisible barrier protects the entire fortress, preventing spores that are air-dropped directly at the fortress from deviating from their course.
Not far from the fortress, the fat female insect was dragged out of the wreckage of the mothership by a servant species called dragon lizard.
Countless thorns immediately emerged from the ground to restrain the female worm, and the entire earth trembled.
The trees used to replenish water for the Na'vi tribe no longer spray honey but corrosive venom. The highly toxic miasma is released by colorful flowers and fills the entire forest sea.
The beautiful fluorescent bugs that serve as the atmosphere group in tribal rituals rush towards the location of the mother bug in swarms. They attach to all the bugs protecting the mother bug and ignite themselves, creating an effect like a white phosphorus incendiary bomb.
