Chapter 715: Analyzing the Xiuluo Holy Indigenous

After Yingzhou left the area where the Tech-Priest was located, a familiar figure walked out from the Research Institute gate.

Perturabo was wearing a dark gray engineer's uniform, with a leather apron casually thrown over it, stained with traces of oil and coolant.

When Perturabo saw Yingzhou, there was a moment of surprise, followed by the whole person becoming very serious, but the excessive seriousness made Yingzhou feel that Perturabo's behavior at this moment was very stiff.

"Father."

Perturabo stopped in his tracks, nodded slightly, put both hands behind his back, and said in a somewhat stiff tone.

"Perturabo,"

Yingzhou also stopped, his gaze falling on Perturabo, and noticing the marks on his apron, a smile appeared on his face as he said.

"Just came out of your 'workshop'? Any results?"

"Yes, Father."

Perturabo's tone carried a hint of imperceptible excitement, but that hint of excitement was fleeting; Perturabo immediately returned to his usual demeanor.

He raised that probe arm which was still flickering with blue light to gesture toward the building behind him.

"I am researching the Communication Core Fragments and Battlefield Interference Data of those 'tin cans.' Their information network... structure is very peculiar."

"Oh? Priest Ferma also mentioned just now that their communication and battlefield coordination capabilities are exceptionally efficient, which is the key to our communication being blocked."

Yingzhou's eyebrows raised slightly; this hit exactly one of the issues he was most concerned about at the moment.

"Efficient? No, Father, that is from their perspective."

The corners of Perturabo's mouth seemed to hook into a very faint arc.

"To us, it is a hybrid that is highly centralized yet highly decentralized. Their individuals are both execution terminals and small data nodes and relay stations. The Commander's orders are not simply issued; it is more like... being synchronized instantly within a shared Consciousness Network."

He paused, then continued.

"Moreover, they are all Puppets. Even with the addition of Autonomous Modules, they are just soulless mechanical creatures. If we want to gain a certain advantage in the subsequent battles, we must find the enemy's main body in a short time and destroy it; only then will this Cyberk Alien be eliminated."

Yingzhou immediately captured the key point.

"So, to completely eliminate the Cyberk Alien, we need to strike with a heavy fist and find the location of the Cyberk Alien's main body?"

"That is correct. There is another way, which is that I plan to develop an Anti-Interference Generator. This Anti-Interference Device, at the moment the opponent's interference device takes effect, will instantly paralyze all communication within a certain range, regardless of friend or foe.

In this way, as long as our troops crush the opponent in combat power, we can prevent this alien from transmitting battlefield data back to the main body."

Perturabo nodded affirmatively, and after thinking for a few seconds, said.

"It shouldn't be too difficult. A large-scale Anti-Interference Device might take some time, but a small-scale Anti-Interference Device is no problem."

"Interference device," Yingzhou chewed on the term.

Currently, if a general Legion encounters Cyberk troops, they probably won't fare well, but if his side just needs to hold out for a period of time, it is not impossible.

"The Tech-Priest is also analyzing it with full effort. You need to coordinate. The Tech-Priest also has a Legion; when the time comes, this Legion will cooperate with your plan to fight the Cyberk Alien.

Perturabo, this direction is very valuable; invest the resources you need.

Any breakthrough that can weaken their coordination advantage could be the key to our soldiers staying alive."

"I understand, Father."

Perturabo nodded solemnly and continued.

"I have already had my technical team interface with Priest Ferma's data group."

"Very good. Keep communicating. If there are any breakthrough developments, notify me immediately, and also synchronize it with Horus and Angron. We need to integrate all our forces."

"Yes, Father." Perturabo nodded again, and that probe arm also nodded downward in synchronization.

Seeing that the serious business was finished, Yingzhou suddenly asked Perturabo out of curiosity.

"By the way, Perturabo, is this a solution you have been thinking about for a long time?"

Hearing Yingzhou ask so suddenly, Perturabo's face turned to the side involuntarily, and after a few seconds of silence, he coughed lightly and said.

"Cough, no, I just did some random research; it just happened to come in handy."

"Hmm, well done!"

Yingzhou didn't say anything more, just reached out and pressed firmly on Perturabo's solid arm, then turned and left.

Perturabo watched his father leave, the light of contemplation in his eyes refocusing, the corners of his mouth lifting upward involuntarily, then quickly disappearing.

First Defense Zone Inner City.

Massive blue data streams flowed along the walls, silently merging into the floating cube in the center.

Thirty Cyberks knelt silently on the metal floor, forming a precise fan shape.

On their foreheads were clearly engraved serial numbers starting with "S."

There was not a single extra sound, only the extremely faint low-frequency operating sound of the Servo Systems within them.

On the surface of the central cube, the light flow suddenly accelerated, converging into a clear image.

It was the record of the 52nd Legion's advance force encountering an ambush by the Death Korps of Krieg in the ruined city.

The screen was playing every detail of the battle.

The precise trajectories of energy beams, the falling of Human soldiers, armored vehicles having their cores melted through, the desperate charges of Krieg soldiers, the fall of the Commissar, and finally the cold battlefield cleanup and the explosion of corpses.

The image finished playing, and the data stream flowed calmly again on the surface of the cube.

A voice without any emotional fluctuation sounded directly in the Consciousness Network of all Cyberks.

"Battle Log C18R3-52-Cleanup Operation Analysis Complete.

Currently collected target units: Humans (Xiuluo Holy Indigenous main body) and variants (Super Soldier Units, 10, uncertain if more).

Combat effectiveness: Meets expectations. Human resistance will strength: High (non-logical driven).

Self-destruction behavior incidence: High (needs to be included in the attrition calculation model)."

A brief pause, the data stream fluctuated slightly.

"Key data nodes:

1. Super Soldier Unit (Metal Giant):

Equipment: Power Armor.

Design logic: While balancing defense and strength, flexibility has not been affected, and performance is significantly higher than expected.

Energy Core location: Presumed to be in the core area of the chest plate; the function of the backpack behind the armor is currently uncertain.

Combat mode: Clear melee tendency (Chainsword/Power Sword), strong discipline, high level of coordination. Individual combat effectiveness: significantly higher than standard Human units.

Inference: Non-mass-produced elite units. Quantity is scarce (only 10), and the second unit encountered did not have any Super Soldier presence, but the data is not absolute.

Possibility of higher-level variants existing: High (87.3% probability)."
