The Executor of the Heavens: Beginning with the Watch Dogs

The new suspicious location of the Reapers is near a brown dwarf...

Brown dwarfs are known as "failed stars" because they don't have enough mass to become burning stars. These weird planets can produce huge planet-like storms that are comparable to the Great Red Spot on Jupiter.

As brown dwarfs cool down over time, the gaseous iron molecules on the planet condense into liquid iron clouds and rain. As it cools further, huge storms sweep through these clouds, allowing bright infrared light to escape into space. In short, going to such a place is extremely susceptible to violent stellar winds.

I don’t know why there is a Reaper remains in the orbit of this star, but considering that the Illusive Man can let Shepard pass, it means that he also sent a group of people there before - this Reaper remains It must be a relatively complete "hulk" that can emit a stable mass effect field.

This is where things get interesting.

"What's interesting?" Kaiden sat in the main seat of the conference room and asked Xie Yuan opposite him.

At the moment, there are not only communications officer Traynor, but also Vasseur, Nilus and Parks in the conference room. This three-chamber meeting is like a situation. It is purely that Kaiden needs to understand why Xie Yuan let the spacecraft come near the brown dwarf. , why do you know that there is such a Reaper wreckage.

Of course, Xie Yuan is not without someone around him, King Ada dressed as Neos. However, Xie Yuan now knew very well that this guy was born with social anxiety. It was better to expect him to explain the situation fluently than to rely on himself.

"Based on the fact that I have been inside the Overlord's spaceship once, I am confident that the remains of the Reaper have not lost their activity, but have just lost their ability to attack." Xie Yuan looked at the forces in front of him calmly. The spokesman on the ship answered his conception.

"But my question is-" Caiden opened his dead fish eyes, "how do you know all this?"

"How did you find the remains of this Reaper? How could I know that the Citadel did not have any relevant intelligence fragments for me, and neither did the Star Alliance. Otherwise, it should have passed through you first before reaching my hands."

After Xie Yuan answered the underlying logic of playing this question, he then replied to Kaiden: "The Shadow Broker secretly sent it to me."

Xie Yuan submitted the sending record of these messages. Of course, this was written by Neos himself. Xie Yuan made the digital mark of the Shadow Broker according to the past records, and then sent the message to Avengers 2, and then from Avengers 2 The ship was sent back anonymously to the captain's secret private channel.

That's all Nios used it for.

Caiden was still looking at the Shadow Broker's record with slight surprise. Vassell had already stood up and looked at the content of the email and said directly: "That's right. This is indeed the Shadow Broker's historical letter-sending habit and format..."

"But why?" Nilus looked at Xie Yuan. Favors are favors, but rules are rules. "Why did the Shadow Broker send you this series of records and geographical locations? How much did you pay for this? This is It needs to be reported to the Citadel Council.”

"Except for the fuel and maintenance fees to go to this brown dwarf, there is no cost." Xie Yuan shook his head casually, "But he asked me to arrive here immediately after receiving the news. I will automatically know what to do when I arrive."

"How is this possible?" Kaiden obviously didn't believe it. He looked at Traynor randomly, "Trenor, report on the status of the Reaper's remains."

"Roger, sir," the Latina female technical officer Traynor manipulated the tablet to view the parameters and concluded, "It is foreseeable that in the environment of strong winds and extremely high temperatures, this Reaper now has a mass The effect field keeps it in orbit..."

As she spoke, she raised her head and glanced at Xie Yuan: "This is not necessarily a possibility that he is still active. It is more like an automatic response to external threats. Because it has been damaged, it was captured by the gravity of a brown dwarf."

"So what caused the damaged remains of a Reaper?" Nilus felt a little interested in this weapon.

"The situation is unknown. I'm sorry that I can't answer your question." After looking at the parameters, Traynor could only say doubtfully, "It is very possible that this is a massive but very old mass acceleration weapon. Shot through."

Nilus nodded and stopped paying attention. "However," Traynor changed the subject, "the readings also showed that there was a second ship hidden nearby. It did not send any identification friend or foe model, but the lidar detected it as a Geth ship."

"The Geth's ship..." Everyone was still shocked by such a piece of information.

"Geth actually broke out of the Immortal Veil again. This is no longer a small matter, and there are also the remains of the reaper..." Nilus' tone has become very strict.

"No matter what is on the Reaper ship, no matter what the needs of the geth are for entering the Reaper remains, we must understand them one by one and make the council fully prepared." Vasel is also prepared for this.

"The close-in defense system is already being adjusted." Parks just replied directly, "No matter what the situation is, our muzzles are ready."

"It seems that the information from the Shadow Broker has allowed us to catch a big fish." Kaiden made a decision, "We will discuss receiving the information later, but now we know everything about the remains of the Reaper and the situation of the geth. That’s the main task.”

Xie Yuan had no objection to this, because the Shadow Broker's information was confusing. His information was not aimed at the Reaper remains, or even the Geth, but...

"Sir, a ship has jumped out!" Traynor suddenly said when everyone packed up their things and stood up, which attracted everyone's attention.

Another ship? ! Everyone suddenly became wary, but they were relieved at the same time. In front of this kind of space fortress under their feet, a ship was not enough.

"Can you read the signal of this strange ship?" Kaiden frowned and looked at Traynor.

"Signal readings read...SSV Normandie."

"Hmm!!" It was then that everyone suddenly realized that if the Guangfu came to this area, what the Shadow Brokers really wanted to target was Shepard...or the Illusive Man behind them.

And on the other side,
"Joker" Jack, who was also in a state of turbulence, used a radio to warn Shepard: "Commander, we found a huge radar signal point nearby, indicating that a giant ship is next to the target."

Shepard ran over, fully armed, and the whole ship was shaking.

As she came to the cab, she asked, "Joker, what's going on with such a violent bump?"

"I did my best," Jack complained back as he adjusted the parameters. "The wind speed blowing towards us is 500 kilometers per hour, which is not as good as the big one next to the remains of the Reaper. They are safe and sound." Steady, not shaking at all.”

"Did you receive its readings?" Shepard quickly confirmed, "Do you know who is nearby?"

"The good news is that they are the SSV Restoration." The clown glanced at Shepard. "The bad news is that they are on alert now, and they just sent a message asking you to go there before taking action. on their ship."

"Damn it!" Shepard was embarrassed when he heard this, "There's a lot of trouble now."
