Chapter 252: The Forerunner's Will! The Opportunity for the Elite Tribe to Rise!

"This...is this a gravity field?!"

The elite officers and elite soldiers standing behind David were all dumbfounded. If they had not seen it with their own eyes, they really could not imagine such a scene.

Missiles flying in the air would be clamped by the gravity field, and the Covenant soldiers who were still alive and kicking the previous second would turn into a bloody mist with no remains in the next second.

They certainly knew that the ghost-faced beasts and jackal soldiers in front of them died from being crushed by the gravity field, but what they did not expect was that these "divine" weapons and devices could actually do this.

At this moment, the elite officer looked at David in front of him, then raised his head to look at the array of Sojourner Dreadnoughts in the air, and suddenly felt fortunate that he did not stab David in the back.

Otherwise, its fate would not be much better than those of its fellow Covenant members who were crushed into a bloody mist!
Seeing such advanced gravity field technology weapons, the elite officers have already determined in their hearts that David is the real pioneer and the god they have been searching for.

At this moment, the wild boars who had witnessed this miracle up close on the ground and saw countless ghost-faced beasts and jackals being crushed had already collapsed and were crawling on the ground.

They begged David and other Astartes warriors, hoping that David would spare their lives.

Hey!
Da da!

David ignored the wild boars that knelt before him. His targets were only the Jiralhanae and the Jackals, as well as other hostile and threatening Covenant forces.

In this way, David led the Astartes warriors past the wild boar beasts and headed straight towards the elevator.

At the same time, the array of Sojourner Dreadnoughts suspended in mid-air was still identifying suspicious persons nearby for David and others, helping them eliminate the threats in advance.

Soon, David reached the edge of the gravity elevator.

On this side of the elevator, there were some heavily armored soldiers who were not affected by the gravity field. They were members of the Covenant, called the Magrek Goro, nicknamed: Hunters.

The body structure of the Hunter race is quite strange. Unlike the elites and Jiralhanae in the Covenant, individual Hunter units are not actually very strong.

On the contrary, hunters in normal conditions actually look like worms, and even their individual IQs are not high, so they can only rely on biological instincts to carry out a series of activities.

It’s no exaggeration to say that they are interstellar paramecium!
However, although the individual IQ and physical fitness of hunters are low, their racial talents are quite novel. These hunters can actually gather together and use fusion skills to become one.

When several hunters gathered into a unit, they gained independent consciousness and higher wisdom, and even their physical fitness became much stronger.

Not only can he communicate with elites and Jiralhanae, but he can also obey orders and be driven by the Covenant commander.

These hunters may be using specific pheromones and bioelectric currents to perform "fusion" operations, giving the gathered hunters a common consciousness and a strong physique.

If you think about it carefully, the hunter species does have the weird temperament of Cthulhu. It’s not entirely Zerg, but what stands out is that it is abstract and weird.

But "I was born to be useful", after conquering the hunter species, the Covenant took advantage of its racial characteristics and incorporated it into its own heavy armored forces.

Among the Star Alliance's combat units, hunters are considered an elite force. Although their individual IQs can compete with those of wild boars, the status of hunters is much higher than the latter!
At this moment, seeing David and other soldiers gradually approaching the elevator, the hunter stationed there immediately swung his left arm equipped with heavy armor and smashed it towards David.

“Roar! Anyone who trespasses will die!”

However, just as the hunter attacked David, the Astartes warriors beside him immediately opened fire at the same time, smashing him into pieces with the grenade launchers in their hands.

The hunter who was blown up by the warriors' concentrated fire let out a series of wailing sounds, and the individual worms scattered on the ground looked like sticky slimes.

Li De, who arrived a step later, could not help but marvel at the pioneers' Sojourner Dreadnought after seeing the blood clots and blood all over the ground:

"It's really a good thing left by the forerunners. With this thing, I believe it won't take long for us to conquer this universe!"

Looking at the area near the elevator, which has been completely occupied by the Astartes warriors of the giant enterprise, Reed became more optimistic about the subsequent conquest.

Especially when seeing the ghost-faced beasts and jackals under his feet, all of them were crushed to pieces. In future combat operations, who can stop the pace of the universal giant enterprise!
"hope so."

David nodded and looked at the wild boar beasts fleeing around him, the elite officers following closely behind him, and the silent elite soldiers. He first counted his own number of people.

Fortunately, even after several rounds of fighting, the troops led by David and Li De were still safe and sound, with no casualties.

What they have to do next is to enter the flagship of the Star Alliance and directly capture the opponent’s leader!

"It seems we have to apologize to the commander-in-chief!"

The elite officers let out a helpless growl. They couldn't beat the enemy. Even if the enemy was not a pioneer, they had no qualifications or confidence to resist.

Hearing the noise made by the elite officer, David didn't bother to be polite with him. He pointed directly at the elevator and signaled the elite to take him in to find the commander of the Covenant.

The elites naturally understood David's body movements, so they lowered their heads and walked in front sullenly, becoming the guides for the giant enterprise's troops.

……

At this moment, the interior of the CCS-class battlecruiser!
"Commander-in-chief, unknown forces on the ground are heading towards our headquarters, and even Colonel Wadami is leading the way for them."

"They said... that group of people are forerunners and our gods!"

Under the central control console of the headquarters, the elite communicator was reporting to the fleet's commander-in-chief Morami in the language of the Covenant.

After hearing the bad news from the various communicators, Morami's mood had become extremely heavy. When he saw Colonel Wadami leading the way through the holographic screen on the center console.

Its expression and mentality are on the verge of breaking through the red temperature!

Judging from the equipment of David's Astartes warriors, this group of outsiders are definitely not someone to be trifled with.

In addition, the Covenant fleet was surrounded by a large number of Sojourner arrays, and the strong gravity field suppressed the fleet's engine drive, making it impossible for Morami to give the order for the fleet to flee.

The large forces that were now sent to the ground have all collapsed and disintegrated. The defense force inside the entire flagship is almost zero. Facing David's attack, they have no way to avoid it.

"It looks like we are going to fall into the hands of this unknown force today!"

Morami looked at David on the screen. He would not easily believe that the other party was the legendary forerunner and their god.

But when he saw Colonel Wadami personally leading this group of outsiders step by step towards the headquarters command room, Morami had to doubt his own judgment.

As the commander-in-chief of the Star Alliance fleet, Morami has trained many elite warriors, and Wadami is one of the best. At a young age, he became a school officer in the Star Alliance, just one step away from becoming a general officer!
But such a promising elite warrior would actually willingly lead the way for the "enemy". Could it be that the other party was really a pioneer warrior or garrison? !
After a brief thought, Morami decided to meet David in person. Even if he died at the hands of the other party, he would defend the honor of the tribe as an elite warrior.

"Notify all guards to follow me to the corridor outside the headquarters. The rest of you will stay here."

"Yes, Commander-in-Chief!"

As soon as the words fell, the guards who received the order immediately came and followed Morami to the corridor outside the headquarters.

The elite guards who followed Morami were all the best carefully selected from the elite tribes.

Their physique and combat effectiveness are among the best among the warriors, and they are also equipped with advanced power armor and power spears.

These spears are similar to the "light sabers" in Star Wars, with high-temperature, high-energy plasma bound by a magnetic field as the spear tip, which can easily pierce the enemy's body and armor.

Not long after, Morami led its guards to the outer corridor of the flagship headquarters, where they waited quietly for David's arrival.

Soon, when a sensor door opened, Wadami, who was walking in the front, and David and other Astartes warriors appeared in front of Morami.

Seeing that the other party seemed to have been waiting for a long time, David patted Wadami without saying a word, signaling it to go over and explain the situation to his commander-in-chief.

And Wadami nodded dejectedly, then came to his superior and said dejectedly:
"I'm sorry, Commander, I must obey God's will and lead them here."

After seeing the scene where the gravity field instantly wiped out the main force of the Covenant, Wadami already regarded David as a pioneer warrior.

After all, through the Star Alliance's excavation, they have long known that gravity technology is one of the technological points that the gods are best at!

"God's will? With those few rabble behind you, do you think you are worthy of being called God?"

Morami was not so easy to believe that the other party would be a Forerunner warrior, but after learning that the gravity field destroyed the main force of the Covenant and David's power.

It hesitated.

No wonder I didn’t receive any information from the ground forces, nor did I see where the Covenant’s large forces had gone. It turned out that they were wiped out by the gravity field in an instant!
Hearing this, Morami was silent for a moment, and Wadami continued: "God has given us the elites a chance. I think this is our only chance to become the leader of the Star Alliance again!"

As the leader of the elite tribe, Wadami is not only good at fighting and charging, with high combat effectiveness, but also has a very good political vision.

That's why he was able to rise rapidly all the way to become the youngest colonel in the Star Alliance, and even has the potential to become the youngest general!
You know, the elites and the prophets used to be two competing forces, but now they can only submit to the prophets and work for their opponents as subordinates.

Although the elites can enjoy the dividends of the development of the Star Alliance, they cannot withstand the Prophet and his gang of old villains who are always thinking about how to secretly support foreign forces such as the Jiralhanae and the Jackals.

Gradually undermining the internal power of the elites!

In the long run, their elite tribes will inevitably decline.

But David's Astartes warriors of unknown origin have become the key external force for the elites to break the impasse. This force is the hope for the elites to rise again and take control of the Star Alliance.

After learning about Wadami's ideas, Morami also expressed his affirmation of this visionary young man.

From this perspective, it seems that cooperating with these warriors is not a bad thing for the elites.

But... Morami doesn't want to agree to the other party's request so easily. It still wants to test the other party's skills to see if David is qualified!

Immediately, Morami took two long power spears from the guard beside him and threw one of them to David.

But before Morami could step forward, Wadami looked embarrassed and quietly reminded him:
"Commander-in-chief, I advise you not to do this, because even I am no match for this guy!"

Among the elite new generation of warriors, Wadami can be called a god of war. He is an outstanding warrior who is the bravest among all the armies.

Even it can't beat David, let alone a commander like Morami who stays deep in the headquarters every day.

After learning that even Wadami was no match for David, Morami was suddenly shocked and said that something was not good.

It glared at Wadami angrily, as if blaming him for not telling it such an important thing earlier.

They have already taken out all their weapons, just waiting for this opportunity to defeat the other party and restore some face for the elite tribe.

In the end, even you can't beat them, and you want an old man like me to join the fight!

Isn't this a deliberate attempt to trick me?

Just as Morami was about to force the power spear in his hand onto Wadami, asking it to do his job, Wadami mistakenly thought he was blocking the commander's way.

So he hurriedly made some space and made a gesture of "please come in".

David, who took over the power spear, also had the urge to compete with the elite commander.

He had long heard that the elites were the most powerful race in the Star Alliance, and wondered if this elite, who looked older, would be more powerful than Wadami.

Morami looked at the expectant eyes of his guards and subordinates, and then looked at David who was ready to go. He knew that he was in a difficult situation this time.

No matter what, you have to bite the bullet and fight through this duel with such a huge disparity in strength!

They couldn't just drop their weapons and not fight. That would be even more shameful and would also disgrace the battle honor of the elite tribe.

Soon, as the bright blue plasma spear blade jumped and flashed, only a plop sound was heard.

Under the gaze of everyone, Morami was knocked to the ground by David in a flash, fell on the deck and fainted.

Seeing this unbearable scene, Watami and the Astartes warriors behind David had already anticipated it, but the elite guards were the only ones who looked stunned.

"Ah, this? It's over so quickly!"

They thought that their leader was so confident that he was really sure to fight the opponent for three hundred rounds, but they didn't expect that they would be defeated as soon as they started fighting.

Isn’t this a bit too humiliating...!
David was also a little surprised when he saw Morami who was knocked unconscious by him. He didn't understand why the elites suddenly sent out an old man to fight him one-on-one.

Still such a bad old man!
