StarCraft: Tyranid Empire
Chapter 696 Abandoning Darkness and Joining Mingta Darin
Some time later, the Ark of Durham was on board the Spear of Adun.
"Spear of Adon. This ship is so bright it hurts my eyes!"
After witnessing the siege and annihilation of the remaining Daram warships by the human fleet on Duke's flagship, Alarak was "escorted" to the Spear of Adun.
"The warships of Tal'darin are the epitome of the art of war."
Walking on the broad front deck of the Spear of Adun, Alarak would feel sore from time to time at the often miles-long interior corridors and shiny decks. Above his head, colorful rays of light were shining from the ceiling shaped by the energy of the Spear of Adun, as if countless falling diamonds were shining under the light of the sun. The scattered light and shadow showed what a glorious giant ship should be. Majesty and beauty.
The Spear of Adun is broad and bright, and every corner seems to be sparkling, which is completely different from the oppressive atmosphere of the Tal'darin battleship. The Templars obviously maintain the Spear of Adon as carefully as an ancient holy object like a mothership, but Tal'darin never goes to great lengths to do such things, and combat effectiveness is the guarantee of everything.
Nothing more.
Alarak entered the Spear of Adun as a prisoner of war rather than as an invited visitor. He was not sure for a moment whether it was the protoss or the human leader who wanted to see him.
The current situation is extremely strange. The Spear of Adun is obviously a super protoss flagship that is rare in the world, but Tyranid Empire and Purifier soldiers can be seen everywhere in it. Huge human and Purifier war weapons are also common.
——What a wonderful sight.
In addition, Alarak was escorted by the elite guards of the Alpha Squadron of the Tyranid Empire under Edmund Duke.
Could it be that the Spear of Adun has now become the flagship of the Tyranid Empire? She now has to change her surname to Mengsk Alarak. Now she is very curious about who is talking on the ship now.
Alarak was a little envious and jealous. If he was the one who got the Spear of Adon, he could use it as long as he painted it with a layer of black paint. After making up the name of Death Ark, he could get Slaine and show off his power. Wouldn't it be wonderful? .
"You finally said something humane. This ship is actually nothing special. Our ship is much better than this." General Edmund Duke in white power armor followed behind Alarak. They were more than twenty heavily armed Alpha Squadron Marines.
Given Duke's past behavior and his willingness to listen to Alarak's nonsense, he would not take him to see Augustus even if he received an order. In the past, Duke would not have cared about whether Alarak was truly sincere in cooperating with the Empire, and would have found a corner and shot him out of revenge.
But even Duke is not completely arbitrary and acting arbitrarily now. Having followed Augustus for a long time, Duke was also accustomed to considering the overall situation rather than the gains and losses of one battle or one place.
——A living Ta'darin's first upgraded person, how can I get two more medals for him.
Not a loss.
"Just say so." Alarak said after a moment of silence. He didn't even bother to compliment the human warships. This was against his Tal'darin conscience.
"You are my prisoner now, be honest!" Duke heard Alarak's vitriol and glared at Alarak in front of him.
Alarak voluntarily took off his armor and blade, wearing only a blood-red robe, and his hands behind his back were bound by shackles made of catalytic alloy.
This can't trap a powerful ascender at all, but the hidden dark templar masters behind it are a little troublesome.
But since he dared to go deep into the enemy camp alone, Alarak had no intention of escaping unscathed. Even if he is a thoughtful and calculating gambler, he is still a gambler.
Alarak achieved his current status in part because he dared to take risks.
"Edmund Duke, you didn't even blush when you said this." Alarak reminded Duke, "I really admire your shamelessness."
"I would assume that all aliens have fully developed brains, otherwise how would you talk to these disgusting bastards," Duke said.
"Me too," Alarak shot back.
"I should sew your mouth shut." Duke said viciously: "You stinking piece of shit, if you have the guts, just show off to me."
"The most tragic thing about human beings is that they only have one mouth." Alarak has no mouth, but his language output level is far higher than Duke: "You have a pair of ears, but you are deaf. You have a pair of eyes. But I can’t see.”
"You haven't been killed by my shot yet. It's just my emperor's request. I will execute you immediately on behalf of the Tyranids who were killed by Tal'darin. I will drown you like a real dead dog, and then Put my boots in that stinky mouth of yours." Duke's face changed.
"Hmph, whatever you want." Alarak snorted coldly and stopped irritating Duke.
He was anxious.
Soon, after passing several jump platforms, Alarak was escorted by Duke to the upper deck of the Spear of Adun.
The closer you get to the Spear of Adun bridge, the more and more traces of fierce battles you get, and you can even see many combat machines on the road that have not yet been cleaned and recovered. It was obvious that there had just been a battle within the Spear of Adun, and the Durham Protoss almost lost the flagship.
If Amon had obtained an Ark-ship, he would have used her to cruel destruction!
The Ark of Salvation has become the destroying flagship of the Dark Fleet, which is really ironic when you think about it.
When the mobile platform arrived on the bridge of the Spear of Adun, the magnificent deck console and the vast starry sky were unfolding in front of Alarak. The bridge was almost completely destroyed, with huge crystals and polished golden metal fragments scattered all over the floor. Hundreds of slaves were hovering above their heads like swimming fish, using tractor beams to clean the devastated deck.
What the hell is going on? When Alarak came to the bridge of the Spear of Adun, he saw Augustus's royal guard soldiers saluting Duke.
"Your Majesty, endless void energy is pouring out from the void door of Urna Temple. We must close this void door, otherwise the terrifying shadow tentacles will sooner or later tear apart our fleet together with Urna. "
"The sensors show that this void gate is drawing energy from those void crystals. If you want to seal it, you must destroy these crystals."
"Now that you have an idea, do it immediately, locate the coordinates of these void crystals, and send out troops."
"Augustus Mengsk, the Emperor of the Tyranids, truly lives up to his name." Alarak walked towards the center of the bridge of the Spear of Adon, only to see Augustus surrounded by everyone: "You The efficiency of his subordinates is not very good."
"Damn it, if I had known I should have shot this beast in the back." Duke came to Augustus with a dark face.
"Don't argue with a Tal'darin Protoss. I can't beat you to death, but I can still piss you to death." Raynor was also on the side and couldn't help but complain to Duke.
"I can't imagine there's something worse than you in this world." When Duke looked at Renault, he actually felt that the other person's hateful face had become friendly.
"After all, he's not a human being." Renault spread his hands: "Duke, why didn't you little bitch die outside?"
"You piece of shit, I can live another two hundred years," Duke said.
"Tadarin, you must not be rude to Emperor Augustus." Before Augustus could say anything, an unexpected voice appeared. It was the man who had just removed the nerve bundle and was preparing to restore Durham's glory. of Artanis.
"Artanis. Disciple of Tassadar, the high-ranking executive of Durham. I haven't seen you for a while, why are you like this now." Alarak yelled, and the blood pressure of the Templars rose. It started to rise rapidly.
"It's really embarrassing!" He said to Artanis: "First we lost El, and now we have the Golden Fleet. Can't you make some progress?"
"Artanis, you always waste most of your time gathering troops. This is the reason for your failure."
"Presumptuous!" Selendis did not allow others to insult Artanis in front of her.
Alarak was also dissatisfied with Artanis.
As long as you, Artanis, can win the battle, Alarak will not come to ask for help from humans. This is a development that even he himself could not have imagined. Although humans are not worth mentioning, they are not dispensable, not to mention that they have now gained the trust of the mechanical protoss.
Artanis, Artanis, look what you've become now. You have two or three kittens, and you still need humans and purifiers to help clean up the mess!
Tui! Shame on you!
Tui! Tui! Tui!
However, Artanis ignored Alarak, probably because he felt it was embarrassing to argue with him in front of so many people.
"Are you Alarak?" Augustus pretended to be unfamiliar with Alarak.
Alarak the Conspirator.
Alarak is accustomed to fighting among the strong men in Zhou Xuan, and he jumps back and becomes the ultimate winner at the right time. This is the key to Alarak being able to reach the top of the promotion chain.
Commonly known as Erwuzi.
"That's right, Alarak is the first person promoted to Tal'darin." Alarak added with a narrow expression.
"I remember, this account of Blackxis should be recorded on Tal'darin's head." Augustus waved his hand:
"Delay and shoot."
The Tal'darin and the Tyranids have a deep hatred. Today you razed one of my colonies, and tomorrow I will pay back twice as much. The Tal'darin are the most warlike and aggressive faction among the protoss, but the Tyranids are also the backbone of the human race.
Anyway, they were stained with a lot of each other's blood.
"Wait, keeping my life is much more beneficial to you than executing me." When he was about to be led away by the Royal Guards, Alarak was really surprised. There are so many people here, and they keep their word. It was actually a human, and neither Artanis nor Zeratul had any objections.
Alarak winked at Artanis, but he was blind and couldn't see.
But Alarak was not worried that Augustus would actually execute him. Otherwise, he should execute Alarak directly instead of waiting to see him in person before making a show of it.
A big shot like this doesn't have time to scare people.
Compared to Artanis, Alarak prefers Augustus, a ruthless man with few words who conforms to Tal'darin's values, but the disadvantage is that he is not easy to fool.
"Tell me, what can you do for me?" Augustus's cold gray eyes stared at Alarak with an imposing manner.
Augustus didn't mind killing Alarak now and letting him pay with blood now, but as the Tal'darin said, he was of extremely high use value now.
Although Augustus didn't expect that Alarak was looking for him instead of Artanis, it was still accurate to what Alarak wanted to say.
"You must also know that our God of Darkness, Amon, has returned. For the creatures in this universe, the end has come." Alarak shook off the two Royal Guard soldiers who were kicking him, full of confidence. Say, "What I know is far scarier than what you believe."
"Countless void gates will open in the universe, and the dark army loyal to Amon will destroy one galaxy after another, including of course your empire and hundreds of billions of people."
"Tell me what's useful." Augustus said to Alarak, but he didn't dare to talk back: "You talk too much nonsense, Tal'darin."
"." Augustus's attitude was also within Alarak's expectation. The Tyranids' favorability towards Ta'darin had always been negative, and Alarak himself knew what he had done before.
"Our god, Aemon," he said to Augustus, "has reneged on his promise and deprived us of our privileges. Ascension is a lie because he believes that death is the most perfect ascension."
"After helping Amon destroy this universe, Tal'darin will also be destroyed - he deceived me and my people! Therefore, I vowed to take revenge on him."
"But no one in the Tal'darin will believe my words. My foolish loyalty to Amon will only make them regard me as a heretic." Alarak continued: "Now, all the Tal'darin are still regarded as heretics. Deceived by Eamon"
"Now, Tal'darin's death fleet is gathering in Slane, preparing to launch a full-scale invasion, and the Tyranid Empire is also under the Tal'darin's front. It won't be long before the war will sweep across the entire galaxy, and countless All human beings will be slaughtered."
"Do you think we will believe what you say?" Renault interjected, and he and Duke looked at each other, and both laughed maliciously.
"Hmph." Alarak held back his words for a moment and wanted to retaliate, but he held back: "Augustus Mengsk, I'm here to propose a deal. High Lord Marash already knew about Eamon. He lied, but chose to conceal it, deliberately leading Tal'darin to the road of destruction."
"You help me create an opportunity to challenge the dominance and help me defeat Marash and become the new high-ranking lord. In return, I will make my people no longer regard you as enemies."
"In other words, you want me to help you?" Augustus looked at Alarak, paused, and said:
"This is a request."
"No, this is a deal." Alarak narrowed his eyes slightly and said.
"Then I reject this deal," Augustus said.
"You" Alarak took two steps forward in an instant, trying to overwhelm this weak human emperor with his powerful momentum, but found that the other party was not moved at all.
Inexplicable - this is just an ordinary human being.
Speaking of which, Tassadar and Rashagar, the two real racial leaders, are not here. From the perspective of the alliance, Augustus does have a higher status.
Whether it is Zeratul, the senior patriarch of the Dark Templar, or the high-ranking executive of Durham, they all have a vague attitude of being led by Augustus.
This is a human being.
If he had known this, he would not have bothered to provoke humans in the first place. He could have left the matter of destroying human colonies to his subordinates, and then he could have passed the blame to Marash.
But the matter has come to this, and there is no point in regretting it. No Tal'darin would take human lives seriously. Anyway, they are more ruthless to their compatriots in the Chain of Ascension.
Tal'darim has no morals at all, so it is impossible to be bound by this.
"Long before us, you also massacred the Taldarin of Niang. This is tit for tat." Alarak said without giving up: "As long as I become a high-ranking lord, I will not only order the death fleet to withdraw The war will also help you fight against Amon and protect your colonies on the far side of the galaxy."
"I don't mind reminding you that Tal'darin's help has reduced the losses for you humans by more than tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands." Alarak paused and added emphatically:
"Of course, I don't care if they live or die."
"Human beings always like to destroy themselves." He said: "If you just leave it alone for hundreds of years, you will be finished. I can't go against humanity."
Alarak knew that Augustus valued his people as much as Artanis did, and this was a weakness.
Augustus didn't mind temporarily putting aside his hatred as long as he could save more people's lives, and for Alarak, this was enough.
On the contrary, the Tal'darin protoss who "love their people as their own children" do not have such a weakness that can be exploited by their enemies.
"Well said, but I refuse." There was no expression on Augustus' face.
"." Alarak walked a few steps in place and continued: "Very well, this is a request."
"In exchange, the Tal'darin will also withdraw from your Koprulu star sector after the war. From now on, we will stay on the same page."
"If you are here to ask for help, don't be so condescending." Renault said: "Different ways do not lead to mutual understanding."
"This is not a condition." Augustus said: "Anyway, you have been kicked out by us."
"I have made it very clear. As long as you help me win the position of high-ranking lord, not only Slane's death fleet, but all Tal'darin protoss will join your alliance to fight against Amon! As long as you don't go too far. , I am willing to listen to your opinion."
"But never an order."
Alarak knew that his bargaining chip was no less than a white wolf with nothing. He had already given in to everything he could.
Otherwise, Alarak will express his arrogance: As long as you surrender to my absolute rule, I will reluctantly let you join me.
When working with someone like Augustus Mengsk, you can't try to trick him, otherwise he needs you to know his tricks.
"." For a moment, Augustus seemed to be thinking about something and did not speak again. Alarak had no doubt that if the other party refused this deal, he could kill him at any time and wipe out the roots.
"Taldarin, it is not a wise choice to believe their lies." On the other side, the Purifier Protoss executive Koralion, who had been observing, suddenly said.
"Lies? What else is left in your body besides lies? Mechanical Protoss." Alarak said with a sneer.
"I remember you, Tal'darin." Coralion said in a way that humans can understand: "I hope your sharp blade is as hard as your mouth."
"You'd better remember that we will outlive you and the memories we store will not be lost."
Well, only Tadarin and villains are difficult to raise.
What Alarak didn't know was that the Purifiers really wanted revenge, and it wouldn't be too late in ten years. Even after a thousand years, they will still settle old scores with you seriously when they wake up.
"Tal'darin, whether you can gain our trust depends not on words, but on actions." Zeratul said.
"Dark Templar. I never talk to fearless people who don't even dare to show their faces." Alarak said immediately.
Zeratul didn't say anything. He really got into a fight with Alarak, which was embarrassing. Besides, Augustus would say that a gentleman can speak without speaking.
However, Alarak showed an attitude. He didn't care to anger everyone, and he was proving to Augustus that he had no intention of forming a private alliance with anyone to divide the multi-ethnic alliance that Augustus had worked hard to promote.
"Augustus Mengsk, it's up to you whether you believe it or not~" Alarak glanced at Artanis next to him and said:
"Anyway, you seem to be the one talking here. I'm waiting for your answer."
Alarak did not want to shake the authority of Augustus, but just wanted to determine who among these people was the one who made the decision and gave the order.
"Remember what you said today." Augustus said decisively: "Time will tell everything."
"Don't try to deceive me, Alarak, I know you better than you know yourself."
"Dalaam has no objection," Artanis said.
"So are we," said Coralion.
"Very wise," Alarak said.
For now, support Alarak to take over Tal'darin, make the powerful Death Fleet withdraw from Amon's camp, and even expand the power of our own camp. Apart from Alarak, Augustus really couldn't find a suitable candidate who could shake the high-ranking lord Marash.
As for the current promoted second person Jinara, let’s not mention this character who can be beaten to the point of running away by the Champion of Eamon who appears out of nowhere.
Although Augustus still decided to temporarily accept Alarak's request, the feud between them could not just be settled.
However, now that Alarak is here, who will be the next to "turn from darkness to light"?
"Wise choice, I really saw you right." Alarak resisted the urge to laugh: "Now we should go to Slane immediately, hold a Rak'sir ceremony according to our tradition, and challenge Marash !”
"You don't need to remind me what I should do, do you understand?" Augustus stared at Alarak coldly and said, "The only thing you should do is prepare your damn ceremony and then wait."
The most important thing for Augustus now is to block the Void Gate in Urna, recover all the Xel'Naga inheritance inside, and then summon the army to return to the Koprulu sector to rescue Sagulath and bring the Dark Saint to the throne. The forces of the Dou Samurai were also brought under his command.
Things should be prioritized, but if Tal'darin can be withdrawn from this war in advance, it can effectively reduce losses and reduce the size of the battlefield.
I feel like the leader of Koprulu Wulin.
Legacy of Tyranid?
"Artanis, if you keep an eye on Alarak, you'd better make sure that he is always within your sight." Augustus said to Artanis: "I don't trust this guy. There's no guarantee that he won't do anything else." What's going on?"
"Okay, Alarak." Artanis walked towards Alarak: "I will keep an eye on you during the time on the Spear of Adon."
"As you wish." Alarak raised his unruly head and said.
"I won't allow you to leave my sight."
"Oh~ you can follow wherever you want, I have no objection."
