StarCraft: Tyranid Empire

Chapter 236 Terrador IX

SCT, 2491.3.11.

The Terrador Galaxy, this star system located in the core star area of ​​the Tyranid Federation, is known as the Federation's corolla, paradise garden, and cradle of life.

The reason why the Terrador system enjoys such praise is that it has not one but three planets suitable for life. As a star system that has been included in the colonial plan in the early days of the Federation, the beautiful environment, advanced technology, and complete social security system have kept the living standards and happiness index of the residents of Terrador at a high level.

This system, which was included in the territory of the Tyranid Federation in the early colonial era, has become a paradise far away from Tarsonis in the last century of colonization.

Terrador VIII and IX are two co-orbiting planets located in the outermost layer of the Terrador system. For a long time, the two accompanying sister planets have been inseparable under the pull of each other's gravity, orbiting each other and the stars, like two dark blue butterflies dancing around the stars of the Terrador system.

The two sister planets of Terrador have similar environments - both are capable of thriving life, but both have ridiculous climates.

The co-orbiting and relatively close distance of the two stars has brought a unique environment to Terrador VIII and IX. The climate, humidity and terrain will change greatly every few miles, which makes it a wonderful natural phenomenon. It has shaped the reputation of Terrador IX resort.

On Terrador IX, the lush tropical jungle is adjacent to the towering and magnificent snow-capped mountains, and next to the vast emerald ocean is an exotic desert town. The savanna is as vast as the colorful land with dense coniferous forests. The rich and diverse wildlife resources with specialized functions due to the changing environment make this planet a wonderful world with many magical animals.

The difference in climate and environment is so great that at one end of a resort estate built on ocean beaches, there is the vast ocean, while at the other end there is a frozen world that may be more than ten degrees below zero.

When they come to Terrador IX Federation dignitaries can sunbathe, surf, and dive at the Hot Ocean Holiday Manor, and then drive a few miles to ski on the snowy mountains and experience hot springs. Then go to the grasslands with rich wild animal communities to hunt for rare wild animals. Finally, you take a glider and jump down from the towering mountains, landing in a warm valley that is like spring all year round.

Visitors can admire the beautiful shells in the vast shallow waters of Shell Island, ride the waves on a yacht at Ocean Paradise and Sunset Palm Hotel, or watch the Terrador hornwhale migration during the mating season, but the latter is currently only available in Thailand. The founding family of the London Federation is open.

Terrador IX is the most famous resort in the Federation. It is also probably the largest place of filth and evil in the entire Koprulu sector. The rich and distinguished people have purchased luxurious manors on this planet. , and the founding family of Tarsonis also owns many properties here.

There are many rumors about the creation family of Tarsonis and their descendants who fled to Terrador to escape punishment. Almost all of the rumors are related to the promiscuous style and absurd behavior of the descendants of the creation family. It is said that in the deepest part of Terrador IX, in the palaces piled with endless treasures, the people of the Creation Family indulged themselves in extreme enjoyment and indulgence, and their sins were covered up layer by layer by the debt contractors of the Terrador resort. Covered in blood.

As the capital of Terrador IX, New Canaan is a port city on the ocean. The building closest to the ocean has the highest housing prices in Terrador. Tenants can see the majestic scenery of the emerald sea through the crystal glass windows, and watch the Terrador narwhals passing through New Canaan on their migration path.

When the sea breeze mixed with the salty smell blew through the boulevards in the center of New Canaan, Augustus, disguised as an interstellar businessman, was walking leisurely on the wooden-floored avenues.

Augustus has played many roles while traveling in the universe: a former Federation Marine who fends for himself, Sheriff Joe Sara, and the son of a down-and-out nobleman...

Beside Augustus was Sarah Kerrigan in a strapless black dress with a hem that fell past her knees to a third of a foot from her ankles. Kerrigan's small feet were wearing a pair of exquisite low-heeled sandals. Her cute little feet were like onion stems or lotus root petals, as if they were finely carved ivory.

Kerrigan's bright, flame-like hair was well maintained, obviously washed and maintained frequently. A pink flower hairpin fixed her fiery red ponytail between her right shoulder and her neck.

Kerrigan was full of youthful fire at this time, and the lively temperament from a girl can still be found in this girl who has experienced a lot of pain, but the pain has not accumulated to the point where she can no longer laugh.

For Kerrigan today, this is not just an ordinary escort mission, but a rather romantic trip, which is why she is wearing her favorite long dress today.

Even so, Kerrigan in this outfit is still humanity's deadliest killer. Kerrigan carries a miniature submachine gun disguised as a crossbody bag on her round hip, and a sharp dagger is tied to each thigh with a belt under her long skirt. If necessary, she can hold the submachine gun in one hand and the dagger in the other. The enemy might have Augustus trapped between them to escape any possible assassination.

In fact, although Terrador IX is a charming resort, Kerrigan is not very happy today because she still cannot understand why Augustus insists on bringing Mira Han. This undoubtedly makes an imaginary "Dating" becomes less than perfect.

Moreover, Kerrigan could not imagine that the trip to Terrador had anything to do with a pink-haired female officer of the Revolutionary Army.

If Kerrigan is a beautiful scenery beside Augustus, then Mira Han, who is jumping up and down, is a crazy girl at his hand.

As a senior officer of the Revolutionary Army, Mira Han is calm and majestic in battle, but she is always a little out of touch in daily life. The experience of growing up in the Port of the Dead shaped Mira's optimistic character. She always behaved optimistically and cheerfully, but when dealing with the traitors and deserters in the Revolutionary Army's Port of the Dead Legion, she was ruthless and unkind. Favor.

Mira Han's outfit is much more exciting than Kerrigan's. She wears tight leather pants and leather jacket, and her exposed forearms are tattooed with butterflies and skulls. Mira wears a very long pink single ponytail, and her long pink hair swings like a beating elf.

Even Augustus had to admit that the future mercenary queen of the Port of the Dead looked quite lively and cute as a girl. Like many children born and raised in the Port of the Dead, Mira's parents did not have the ability or sense of responsibility to raise their children. And he, Augustus, raised the other party as his daughter.

At the same time, behind Augustus, Kerrigan and others were Jim Raynor who looked like a bodyguard, Corporal Faraday and two other tall Revolutionary Army sergeants. They had many encounters with the federal army. He proved his loyalty and bravery in battle.

"This is a good place, Terrador." Augustus said as he walked: "This place is almost on the same straight line as Moria and Tarsonis, far away from the war and on the edge of the core world. Once encountered Attack, the federal fleet will arrive within two days at the earliest."

"But the good news is that the federal garrison here is vulnerable, and the strongest combat force is a knighthood that originated from the semi-feudal armed forces in the colonies."

Terrador IX may be a world second only to Tarsonis and Hermes. This is not because it has a developed industrial system or industry, but because it is the home of the descendants of the founding families of the Tyrannic Federation and wealthy businessmen. The son's refuge is also a place where gray wealth is stored.
