Chapter 255 Cerberus-Hellwalker

Fortress Central Command Room SET:2491.6.4

"What else did the commander of the Federal Cerberus Force confess?"

Augustus was standing in the central command room with a semicircular dome, holding a cup of military instant coffee that was as bitter as a burnt egg shell in his hands. During these days, Augustus always worked long hours and had little time for rest.

He still had a resolute expression, but the shallow but lingering dark circles under his eyes made his eyes always look a little sinister.

The four walls of this central command room are covered with huge holographic projection screens, like a large control room. The images on the screen come from various Revolutionary Army legion headquarters and several Revolutionary Army warships in the Sara system, and most of the screens are currently disconnected or being connected.

Now the only person here besides Augustus is his adjutant, bodyguard and girlfriend Sarah Kerrigan. His staff officers are still formulating the next plan in the conference hall based on the guidelines given by Augustus. ——How to deal with the Omega Squadron and the Jormungandr Swarm in the Sara System, and rescue as many Mar Sara people as possible.

"In addition to Cha Sara, Mar Sara also secretly built multiple alien research laboratories of the same level as Victor V." Kerrigan said: "The records we found in the federal base can effectively prove Prove this - the zerg in the Sara galaxy were all brought here by humans themselves."

"It's really ironic. The reason why the zerg invaded the Sara system on a large scale was just because humans provoked them and robbed a large number of zerg members. It had nothing to do with whether they were cruel or not." She said: "The people who provoked the war actually It’s human.”

"We have another piece of dirty information about the Federation." Augustus nodded, already beginning to think about whether we should find a suitable time to occupy the UNN headquarters building in Tarsonis again.

Normally this is almost impossible, but maybe the people in UNN haven't thought that the revolutionary army would be so bold.

"What happened to that Cerberus unit? I think that garrisoning a base deep in a sea of ​​insects should never be their original mission." Augustus quickly returned his attention to the problem at hand.

"According to the consistent style of the federal secret service, they should have left directly after completely erasing all evidence, and finally burned the scientists in the laboratory and the informed commanders and soldiers in the base. "

"This force probably arrived within a week of the large-scale Zerg invasion in Cha Sara. At that time, there were reports of sightings of alien creatures from all over the planet." Sara, wearing a fitted dark gray military uniform Kerrigan replied immediately.

"The person in charge of the alien research project was a member of the Federation's Ghost Project, and Cha Sara's Zerg laboratory was headed by an unknown high-ranking official under the Federation Council." Kerrigan frowned, as if Reminds me of bad memories from my past days at Ghost Academy.

"At first, the Federation thought that there was just an accident in Cha Sara's alien laboratory, so it sent an elite team of the Federation Cerberus Force to clean up the mess and eliminate all the zerg to ensure that Cha Sara's zerg research project remained. Under the highest level of confidentiality."

"However, what this Cerberus team faces is not just a 'fish that slipped through the net' in a few laboratories." Augustus had already guessed the whole story and why this team continued to stay in Cha... Sarah was eventually discovered by the revolutionary army.

"To be precise, it was only after the Cerberus team was lowered to the surface of Cha Sara by the destroyer that they discovered that the number of enemies was far greater than they imagined." Kerrigan said.

"But the destroyers had already left, so they were actually trapped in the federal base in Cha Sara before we discovered them."

"Why can they persist for so long in the southern hemisphere of Cha Sara, which is full of zerg?" Augustus asked.

"The commander of the Cerberus team doesn't know why. The area around the Flam base where they are located is full of the main nests and underground tunnels of the Jörmungandr swarm." Kerrigan said: "It's like fighting against Just like the siege of Los Andares, every attack from the Jormungandr swarm keeps the people in the base exhausted without completely conquering it."

"At the same time, this force is indeed a well-equipped and highly qualified special force. They were originally established to deal with alien enemies that humans may encounter in the universe. During the Kailian War, Cerberus troops always appeared in On the most tragic battlefields, people are often found walking out of mountains of corpses and seas of blood," she said.

"This earned the Cerberus troops the title of Messengers of Hell, and the honors and medals they received were even greater than those of the Demons of Heaven."

"I won't be jealous if you say that." Augustus finally smiled, knowing that Kerrigan was just joking.

"The Federation also calls Cha Sara's zerg the Jormungandr Swarm?" Augustus thought that Jormungandr was just the name of the Revolutionary Army: "It looks like Jormungandr The leader of the swarm may be observing the attack methods of humans and testing the combat effectiveness of the zerg under his command.”

"What is more likely is that they are selecting the strongest among the races through battles or forcing some zerg to mutate through cruel wars and environments, and then selecting beneficial mutant individuals, and finally copying the new genes to other animals. On the Zerg members," he guessed.

"The Federation also named Cha Sara's swarm the Jormungandr swarm, which is the same as our naming idea. The zerg that appeared had a large ground force, mainly composed of Hydra Hydralisks and springtails. Those serpentine creatures with their serpentine tails and terrifying muscles are always automatically reminiscent of mythical monsters," Kerrigan explained to Augustus.

"Maybe your guess is right. The zerg, at least some of their members, have very high intelligence," she said.

"But the zerg's way of thinking is definitely completely different from ours. They are not humans." Augustus took a big sip of strong coffee.

"Negotiations are useless. Against humans, we can launch a war and then force them to the negotiation table, using negotiations and agreements to compete for territory, interests and honor." He said: "But when facing the Zerg, it is only you and me. war."

"How about it, has the commander of the Cerberus Squad decided to join the revolution?" Augustus asked Kerrigan again: "I have met him. He has professional military qualities and skills that our officers and non-commissioned officers rarely have. He is a very good professional soldier who thinks at a strategic level."

"I know you like to 'collect' the best talents from all walks of life." Kerrigan said with a teasing expression.

"I would rather you call this a thirst for talents and a focus on talents." Augustus drank all the coffee in the cup.

"It's not that I have some weird collecting fetish, I don't have any special hobbies."

Thanks to the alliance leader of Holy Dragon Cassios, Agent Rongrong's 1500, Corporal Kerry's patrol and the reward from the helmsman Shi Yiji, there are now three alliance leaders, and after all, the debt is almost forty.
