I, Superman, the Supreme Commander

Chapter 183 The mysterious man at the source of the mutation

“Captain, perhaps we should attack immediately and find [Him]. [Him] may be the key to our victory in this war!”

Sagan suggested seriously.

Julius nodded solemnly. He also sensed the strange power transmitted by "that existence".

After reconnaissance, they have confirmed that the Zerg on the planet Makaria have fallen into some kind of inescapable chaos.

The [Node Creatures] who served as commanders fell into agony and madness, and some even died with their heads exploding. The low-level insect soldiers became unconscious zombies, wandering around randomly.

The Zerg forces on this planet have completely lost control.

Julius made a prompt decision: "Okay, let's rush out and look for a chance to survive!"

"Brothers, let us obey the call of fate and make a crazy gamble!"

"Second Company, listen up and protect Sagan. He will guide us towards hope!"

The surviving human soldiers followed Julius out of the underground bunker and, with the Space Marines as the spearhead, charged towards the Zerg in a mighty force.

The Zerg, which had lost control and coordination, was no match for the human army. Moreover, when humans attacked, the surrounding Zerg did not come to support them and continued to wander around aimlessly.

So much so that Julius and his men easily fought their way through the swarm of insects.

The human warriors felt an unreal sense of absurdity: the ferocious monsters suddenly turned into a group of resistance-free pigs, allowing them to be slaughtered at will.

Many times, the insect soldiers would just stand there stupidly in front of the human soldiers until they were attacked, then they would instinctively fight back. If the humans did not attack, the insect soldiers would even ignore them.

"God Emperor bless you!"

The soldiers could only attribute this to the great power of the Emperor, constantly expressing their gratitude and chanting His name, worshipping Him even more.

"Sagan, what do you think is going on?"

After thousands of years of fighting, this was the first time that Julius encountered such a strange situation. Hundreds of billions of Tyranids seemed to have turned into "brain-dead" living dead. This scene was simply unimaginable if one had not experienced it personally.

Sagan pondered for a moment and whispered, "The Zerg's command should rely on some kind of telepathic power. Now there is obviously a more powerful force blocking the Zerg's command... just like the Zerg blocked our communication before..."

Julius nodded, indicating that he roughly understood.

It took the human army about half a day to kill their way through the sea of ​​insects and finally arrived at the location that Sagan sensed.

As they got closer to "that existence", everyone, including the mortal soldiers, had a clear sense - the existence that made everyone feel warm, at ease, and boosted morale was right in front of them.

In front of everyone was an impact crater with a diameter of several kilometers. The surface of the crater was smooth and shiny, crystallized like glass. From afar, people could see an object emitting a soft golden light at the bottom of the deep crater.

When Julius led everyone to approach with trepidation and walked into the crater, they finally saw clearly the appearance of the object emitting golden light.

Suddenly everyone was stunned.

His eyes widened with an expression of disbelief.

——It turned out to be a human being.

A tall, handsome young man with a sacred golden glow all over his body. His eyes were closed and his expression was peaceful, as if he was sleeping soundly. He was wearing a blue-black tights made of unknown material, with a large S-shaped logo on his chest and a bright red cape hanging on his back.

Obviously, this huge impact crater was caused by this mysterious man falling from the sky.

But he looked completely unscathed, without any damage at all. Not only that, there was not even a speck of dust on his body.

Julius stared blankly at the man lying in the middle of the pit for a long time before he came to his senses and asked Sagan.

"Is this... is he... that person?"

Sagan frowned in confusion for a long moment, then slowly shook his head, "No. The Emperor is much taller than him, and his appearance is different."

Sagan is one of the few thousand-year veterans in the Ash Claws Chapter. During the Great Crusade, he witnessed the appearance of the Holy Emperor of Terra with his own eyes.

"But I heard that everyone sees the Emperor in a different way, and no one knows what he really looks like... The only thing that is certain is that everyone who has seen the Emperor claims that he has a perfect temperament and appearance, with long dark brown or black hair and brown, glowing skin..."

As Sagan spoke, his tone became more guilty and a little uncertain.

Black hair, yellow skin, glowing... Why does this mysterious man of unknown origin in front of me seem to have so many similarities with the Emperor?

Mihael muttered, "Could it be that this man is the Emperor's biological son?"

Sagan was silent for a moment: "...It's not impossible."

Julius said skeptically, “Wait a minute. Haven’t you ever thought that he might be a demon from the Warp in disguise? You know, those filthy creatures are very cunning.”

Sagan shook his head. "That's basically impossible. No demon has the ability to disable a hive fleet."

"Moreover, the power of this person is completely in conflict with the power of the subspace..."

Sagan actually tried to use his psychic power to secretly investigate the mysterious man, but the moment his psychic power touched him, it immediately disappeared.

Julius looked at the other Ash Claw brothers and found that they were all staring at the mysterious man in the pit with mixed expressions, either in awe or curiosity.

He temporarily put aside the idea of ​​exploring, and said helplessly: "Okay, what should we do now? I mean, how should we deal with this... person."

Julius was unsure what the other person was, but after a moment's hesitation, he called it a human.

No matter how you look at it, the other person is a human being.

And subconsciously, Julius also thought that the other party was a human being.

"Let's take him with us first. Perhaps the elders in the chapter can figure out his origins."

"it is good."

Julius ordered a Space Marine to pick up the man.

When the Space Marine approached the man within about one meter, he encountered an invisible barrier and could not get any closer.

Later, everyone discovered that there was some invisible force around the mysterious man's body protecting him and preventing any foreign objects from approaching. It seemed to be some kind of automatic protection spell.

Finally, Julius came up with an idea and had someone dig out a large piece of rock under the man, and then moved the man into the armored transport vehicle.

The man did not wake up during the entire process and was always in a deep sleep or coma.

No reaction to the movement around him.

Julius led his troops to the place where the Flamingo crashed, hoping to find some useful parts and assemble one or two usable small spaceships to escape from this Zerg-infested planet.

At the very least, if all else fails, you can find a usable high-power communication device and try to restore communication with the outside world.

[Hey... This is the Tiger Shark. Is anyone still alive? ]

Before Julius and his men reached their destination, a stranger’s deep voice suddenly rang out from the army’s short-range communication system, which was only capable of communicating with the space orbit.
