StarCraft: Tyranid Empire

Chapter 680 Why are you thinking about recovering Al?

The fleet originally planned to stay in the Chiron III colony for four days, but it was later extended to a week to further complete the ship repair, supply and replenishment work.

During this period, thousands of shipyard workers such as shipwrights, cutters, and welders were mobilized from the nearest Sigma shipyard to repair the ship that was towed to Chiron III orbit by barge after being damaged in the Atrias system. Imperial battleship on space station.

The technicians in the Sigma sector fleet under General Harris also have to work overtime to repair and maintain engines, electrical and naval gun weapon systems. The captain and ship officers also had to apply for the deployment of manpower from the friendly Moebius fleet to replace equipment and accessories damaged in the battle, and to fill the huge cracks in the armor torn by the Tal'darin battleship. They were extremely busy. .

Most of the sailors in other positions were allowed to take leave, and they were even allowed to drink a few glasses of local specialty tequila in the colonial tavern. But after the only stocks in the tavern were quickly sold out, the next morning the armband-wearing military police had to transport truckloads of drunkards on trucks carrying high-energy gas storage tanks and cool them with reactor liquid nitrogen. The tower generated cold water for them to take a shower.

As for those Moebius Legion fleet soldiers who had to stay on duty on the battleship, they were not so lucky. They could only play poker and billiards during their breaks, because they were late and did not fight in the Atrias system. What kind of force is produced?

In addition to courting the local young girls, there are certainly other things for the Imperial soldiers on vacation to do for fun. Officers like hunting activities. They either hunt blue-crowned deer and wild buffalo in the wilderness of Chiron III Colony, or participate in beach volleyball, squash and football games with the soldiers. For this purpose, the Imperial Navy and Marine Corps have specially formed their own Squash club and compete with the locals.

Most people choose to spend time in bars or cafes, or wander around the colonies, or go swimming at nearby beaches. In this rare time of leisure and relaxation, tension and depressed emotions are well released. , effectively restored morale.

Of course, due to the large number of soldiers who descended to Chiron III Colony, it is inevitable that there will be disciplinary violations in such a base number. After all, they are all human beings, not machines or resocialized soldiers.

Most minor violations of discipline are not intentional, but the soldiers who make the mistakes must still be punished by the captain of the battleship to which they belong. In principle, this is to prevent them from accumulating small mistakes into big mistakes. Killed his comrades in battle.

But in general, strict military discipline still restrained the behavior of these soldiers accordingly, and no big troubles occurred.

As for Augustus, he only stayed on the Chiron III for one night. At night, he asked Renault and Zeratul to take a boat to the sea for night fishing. Their interest was not in fishing, but in talking about the mystery of the universe and the simple philosophy hidden in nature.

In the second half of the night, Augustus, who had found nothing, felt very relaxed for the first time in these days, and actually fell asleep amidst the long lazy waves and the quiet sea breeze.

Interestingly enough, Reno was very lucky that day and actually caught a giant Eilikfish that was more than ten feet long. This powerful sea monster almost dragged the ship away, but Zeratul jumped off the ship and killed it with a knife in his hand.

Later, as soon as Renault returned to the fleet, he asked everyone he met how he knew I caught a big fish.

In short, the pleasant time passed quickly. In the last few days, the sailors on vacation were recalled to the fleet one after another and returned to normal life and order, inevitably sighing. Compared with the leisurely life, the management on the battleship is much stricter.

By the time Augustus confirmed that his fleet was once again ready for battle, the Chiron III colony, which had become lively with the arrival of the soldiers, once again returned to its former tranquility.

But Augustus still did not issue an order to set sail, but ordered the fleet to remain on standby.

The Imperial warships that had been sucked into the galactic vortex by the Tal'darin mothership in the Atrias galaxy never came back, as if they had never existed, and they all disappeared completely.

Disappeared.

Nothing was heard again.

Augustus waited for the return of these warships, but there was still no news. In the end, he could only sadly accept the fact that they might never come back, and the chance of survival after being sucked into a black hole was really slim.

Later, Augustus had to tell himself that the business at hand would not allow him to delay for long. So he ordered the establishment of an observation station in the Atrias system, and arranged for a group of scientists and soldiers to stay behind.

Scientists told Augustus that since the passage of time in a black hole will be very slow, when these battleships return to space again, they may find that a thousand years have passed, but they only have a few cognitions. Just a few days.

In view of the slim hope, Augustus could only choose to put the matter aside, but still told the remaining personnel at the Atrias Observatory to report regularly to Korhal. The crew members on the missing battleship will temporarily notify their families of their deaths and provide them with pensions. These more than 40,000 missing imperial soldiers are 40,000 families, which is really sad.

Finally, Augustus had to devote himself to the expedition to Urna, the fabled home of the Xel'Naga.

In the following days, Augustus finally waited for Admiral Tyco Eiche's East-Gima Sector Fleet. At this time, Augustus, who had assembled three fleets, already had more than 400 battlecruisers, including more than 50 Gorgons.

This fleet is equivalent to 1/5 of the Terran Empire's apparent naval strength. Considering that the Empire must mobilize heavy troops to guard against the Tal'darin Protoss, Overlord Swarm and Primordial Zerg near the border, this is already what Augustus can assemble. one of the largest fleets.

Now, rows of battlecruisers with flashing lights are anchored majestically around the orbiting space station of Chiron III, and have been adjusted to the best condition for sailing again. Below the fleet, the turquoise planet was shining with charming brilliance, as if it was coated with a layer of gold under the light of the stars.

Augustus and Renault were standing on the bridge deck of the White Star, waiting for something. The radio monitors on the deck were paying close attention to all possible communication channels.

"It's time for Artanis to come too." Renault looked up from time to time to check the time on the main screen of the bridge.

"If he is late, he must be delayed by something important," said Augustus.

"The jump signal has been detected." Two or three communication soldiers on the bridge reported loudly at the same time: "It's the Durham Protoss Fleet."

The multi-faceted control panel in front of the star map console lit up at the same time, and three-dimensional imaging images of multiple Durham protoss warships appeared on the holographic radar scan.

This golden-blue protoss fleet is huge in number, with four motherships alone, more than 700 aircraft carriers plus storm warships, and countless attached frigates and small and medium-sized spacecraft.

"It's the Spear of Adun, the treasure of the Protoss Empire." Raynor said.

Among this fleet, the extremely majestic and gorgeous hull of the Ark-class battleship Spear of Adun is even more eye-catching - her dozens of miles long hull is larger than all known protoss and human battleships. There are many, and its huge internal space is even rich enough to take off and land an aircraft carrier.

As the flagship of this huge fleet, the Spear of Adon is equivalent to a fleet in itself.

For such a huge ark ship, the Protoss Empire in the Golden Age once built three ships, and it was not because they could only build three ships, but because the Supreme Protector believed that they only needed three ships. Even though these ark ships were built quite a long time ago, the technology they used is still very advanced in the eyes of today's protoss.

The Tyran Empire is greedy and has no choice. Their ancestors have never been rich.

The people on Earth have to hide themselves when fighting a war, for fear that Earth's technology will be copied by the Tyranids. I'm afraid this is also the strategy of the people on earth to control their huge colonies, otherwise the continuous rebels will be enough for them.

"Emperor Augustus Mengsk, Marshal James Raynor." The protoss connects to the human communication system through spiritual energy and can simulate human communication signals: "We abide by the agreement and come to this galaxy. Durham arrived as promised. ,as always."

The person speaking at this moment was Artanis, the high-ranking executive of the Daram Protoss and a disciple of Archbishop Tassadar. Behind him stood two female executives, namely Selendis and Talis.

Every time he cooperates with the Tyranid Empire, Tassadar always sends his close disciple Artanis. This is not only to express his respect for human allies, but also to sharpen this slightly young and energetic executive.

At the same time, there is a solid friendship built by fighting side by side. In the long term, Artanis, as his successor, will definitely be able to make Daram and the Terran Empire humans live in harmony.

Under the leadership of Augustus Mengsk, the Tyranid Empire is rising at an alarming rate. The potential and resilience of this race will eventually make them a powerful force that cannot be ignored, rather than just a flash in the pan.

As a templar, Tassadar is always preparing to fight a war to protect the spirit empire and his people, but no one longs for peace more than he does. In previous wars, the protoss clansmen have been almost wiped out and are in urgent need of time to recuperate, but their enemies do not give them this opportunity.

The broad-minded Tassadar believed that the protoss now needed peace rather than war, friends rather than enemies. To do this, they must put aside their past pride and prejudice.

"It's nice to see you, buddy. Where are the Tassadar people?" Raynor looked at Artanis, and at Selandis and Talis who were standing beside him, and thought, from a human perspective, this guy has passed Must be quite chic.

It seems that the protoss never talk about love, nor are they bothered by the love between their children. It seems that it would be strange to put the word love on them. But how can I put it, the protoss also has parents.

"My mentor Tassadar really has no time to spare. He must command the golden fleet and preside over the war to regain Aiur." Artanis replied.

"Tassadar and you are not in Sagulath, so who is in charge of the Daraam Stars now." Raynor asked casually.

The Terran Empire had actually heard the news a long time ago. It was impossible that such a huge fleet could not make any noise, but it had not yet received confirmation from Tassadar that he would personally take command.

But thinking about it, Tassadar, who was an executive, would never leave such an important battle to others. Tassadar secretly believed that this expedition would inevitably face many difficulties and dangers. If something happened, he would take full responsibility and hand over the duties of Archbishop to others. If not, the tribesmen would never give up on regaining Aiur.

Now that the people want to regain Ayr, they have to take action.

Tassadar is so wise. Even though he couldn't guess that Kara would have problems, he was still keenly aware that Aiur was currently in crisis and hiding all kinds of weirdness.

However, the golden fleet set off anyway.

Tassadar couldn't find any better reason to persuade his people to temporarily abandon the expedition to Aiur - three years and three years, when will it end, and the protoss can't wait to wash away their shame and regain their reputation. The glorious glory of this race.

The social system of the El Protoss is highly dependent on the unique spiritual network for its existence. This is a sea of ​​souls accumulated from countless emotional fluctuations. It is extremely vast and connects all the protoss.

When there is a slight emotional fluctuation in Kara, it will be noticed by other protoss. When a few small streams will converge into ripples, and when the ripples converge into huge waves, the calls of thousands of protoss cannot be ignored.

In this regard, Augustus, who knew the truth, had nothing to do. Zeratul's situation proved that even the prophecy could not prevent the Dallam star spirit from regaining Aiur, and there was no way he would jump out and say that there was something wrong with our Kara. , will be contaminated by Eamon.

Augustus couldn't prove it.

Playing the role of a prophet and pretending to be a ghost is not Augustus's style. He has always been accustomed to ensuring that everything is under his control through control of the plot and detailed planning, rather than pinning his hopes on whether others will believe him.

In the end, I endured everything silently.

The current Daram Protoss is extremely paranoid and fanatical, and they are still thinking about recovering Aiur at this time!

"The free matriarch Rashagal has full authority, and our people are convinced by her kindness and tolerance." Artanis said.

Speaking of recovering the fallen home planet of Aiur, these protoss have been preparing for seven or eight years. Even for the protoss, this is not a moment in time.

Augustus listened for a while and said: "I didn't expect that Tassadar would let you bring so many warships over. It seems that Urna is really important to you."

"Yes, Urna, the hometown of Xel'Naga, is of great significance to us. Looking back on the history of the protoss, there are too many mysteries about the Creator that have not been solved." Artanis said: "You are so selfless. And so generous in sharing such important news with us."

In the eyes of the protoss, Augustus is undoubtedly the upper limit of human moral standards - although this is mainly because after the Battle of El, the protoss inevitably put on a thick filter when looking at Augustus.

"The existence of Urna has surpassed all our previous knowledge. I still doubt that the number of warships carried by the fleet is not enough to meet the next challenge." Artanis responded sincerely.

Do you want to listen to what you are saying - Augustus really believes that even including the Spear of Adon, this may only be a small part of the Golden Fleet, but it is still quite large.

Augustus had nothing to say.

The next moment, a larger fleet jump signal appeared. The streamlined hull color scheme of pure white armor and bright orange lights was undoubtedly from the battleship of the Purifier Protoss.

"Purifiers." Selandis beside Artanis couldn't help but said: "Why are they here?"
