StarCraft: Tyranid Empire.

Chapter 339

For a long time, Vadona has been a planet famous for its advanced technology, clean cities and lush green plants among the many colonial worlds of the Tyrann Federation.

Vadona belongs to the planet developed in the early colonial era, located in the core area of ​​the Tyrannian Federation Territory.This also makes Vadona always under the influence of the main star of Tarsonis. The Vadona nobles who led the colonists to build their homes in the initial era are also closely related to the founding families of Tarsonis.

Wadona, which is located in the core world, has not been affected by the guild war. In the past, it has been a peaceful world where singing and dancing are peaceful.

This planet has a mild climate and a beautiful natural landscape born of it.The main star of Vadona is well known to people in the Territory of the Tyrannian Federation for its majestic, majestic city, beautiful natural scenery and beautiful coastline.

As an old and historic colony, Wadona is also the cradle of culture, and its various natural history museums are well-known in the Federation.

Because of the inextricable connection with the main star of Tarsonis, Vadona can often see the nobles of Tarsonis.In those tourist cities of Vadona that are adjacent to the charming ocean, the rippling natural deep-water harbor is surrounded by flowers and expensive private yachts. Whether it is a splendid modern city or the classical streets along the coast, it is filled with the atmosphere of affluence and indulgence. atmosphere.

Compared with the beautiful holiday resort Terrador Ⅸ star, Vadona is famous for its luxury casinos where you can spend a lot of money, the famous luxury brand commercial street in the star district, the opera house that cultivates sentiment, church choir and outstanding beauties. It has become the first choice for sightseeing for the descendants of nobles in the colonial world of the Tyrannian Federation.

Undoubtedly, Vadona is a gold-selling den for nobles with immeasurable wealth and merchants who are willing to pay high bills. Almost on a par with Tarsonis.

Critics who write travel guides for many of the worlds of the Tyrannian Federation describe Vadona as a rich, romantic world, while worlds like Mar Sara and Antigah are described as uncivilized The abode of the savages.

The last time Augustus heard about this world was when he exchanged glasses with the nobles of the founding family of Tarsonis at Andrea Tagore's birthday party, he heard the nobles talking next to him mention Several prestigious core worlds, such as Vadona and Victoria, where the nobles have won the recognition of the Tarsonian nobles for their knowledge and observance of etiquette.

Many nobles in other core worlds still haven't abandoned the tenacity of their ancestors in the colonial and open era, but the glory and tradition of the past are nothing but things that can only be preserved in records and memories.

The nobles of the main star world like Vadona are also inextricably linked with the Tarsonis creation family. Either they have direct or indirect marriage and blood relationship, or they have been with a certain creation family for a long time. mutual relationship.

"Compared to Tarsonis, the government management of Vadona is efficient and clean. The nobles of Vadona can still get a fair evaluation from my father Angus. He thinks the nobles of Tarsonis are noble Behind the gorgeous appearance is the coldness and greed of a poisonous snake, and the nobles of Vadona at least have a down-and-out chivalry."

Augustus Mengsk's flagship Hyperion is approaching the extraplanetary orbit of Vadona Prime, and outside the porthole of the bridge, a dark blue planet is rotating peacefully, shaped like a drop of pure water .

Holding a briefing sheet from the War Department in his hand, Augustus is talking about his old impression of Vadona. It was dim, and now she still appears unknown.

Compared with the pragmatic Mengsk family, the Vadona noble family are frequent visitors to the aristocratic social circle, and they obviously enjoy it.Compared with the low-key Mengsk family, the Vadona nobles are more willing to wear badges that show their noble and family status when entering and leaving various social occasions.

"Vadona's industry and manufacturing industry are also quite developed. As a large ship production center and a prototype weapon laboratory, it plays an extremely important position in the Tyrann Federation. However, Vadona is not a planet that advocates military traditions. , its law and order and the defense of the star system must be handed over to the Federal Marine Corps and the Federal Navy Fleet."

There is a jewel-like satellite and several giant space stations in the orbit of Vadona's planet. One of the space stations is so close to the Hyperion that it looks as big as that satellite.

Looking along the giant space station composed of arched frame domes and countless mooring platforms, a giant swarm Bechymos is impressively visible. Its bright purple carapace and long stable fins make it look like Like an unparalleled space giant fish.

Unsurprisingly, this space station, which used to house at least 2 people, has already been infected by the Jormungandr swarm. The shiny alloy outer wall of the entire space station is covered with a layer of dark gray chitin honeycomb shaped exoskeleton.

A large transport mooring ship is quietly moored near the space station. Judging from the direction its bow and engine thrusters are facing, it is obviously preparing to escape the space station.Alien spikes and tentacles stretched along the protruding keel and ribs, pulsating with the rhythm of breathing, like a living creature.

The space station was surrounded by wreckage of many ships and even piles of shipping containers. It was clear that Vadona's defenders had sacrificed heavily to protect the space station, but that did not stop the Zerg attack.

The laser cannon on the side of the Hyperion was firing at a Behemoth monster, and the orange-red barrage swept across the starry sky in front of the porthole of the bridge.A several-ton missile is being ejected out of the cabin, and the painted skull logo is clearly visible.

"That space station and that ship have been infected. There is no possibility of finding any survivors." Augustus said this fact sadly, staring at the stationary Federation space station and spaceship outside the porthole.

"Send a special combat team into the space station and this transport ship to carry out blasting missions, and equip them with the best equipment and psychic disruptors." Augustus immediately ordered, "We can't let them become infected and The hotbed of distortion must be blown up."

The space station, which was originally used as a scientific research and shipping transfer station, is more than a mile in diameter, and its permanent population is less than 3000 people, most of whom are scientific researchers and merchant ship crews who rest here.The space station is best known for its famous Vadona Barbecue Hall and the Botanical Garden in space, but these have now become bloody slaughterhouses for Zerg.

The space station is simply too big to be destroyed by the firepower of the battlecruisers.

"This is a near-death mission. We need the most elite team to ensure that we can escape in a space station full of zerg." Jim Raynor, wearing a navy general uniform, said.

"I think we should turn to the protoss for help. After all, they didn't show mercy when they destroyed the infected ships in the orbit of Antiga's main star." Kerrigan next to him said to Augustus at this time.

In her tailored military uniform, Kerrigan has always been the face of the Revolutionary Marshal, but there's no denying her budding military talents shouldn't be overlooked either.

"The fleets of Tassadar and Zeratul will not appear directly in the Vadona galaxy. Their appearance will inevitably bring panic to Vadona and cause the Federation to overreact." Augustus said.

"You can't rely on the protoss for everything." He continued: "They just intercepted a Behemoth fleet that was heading to Vadona, and that was also a difficult battle."

"This matter can be handed over to the resocialized people of Alpha Squadron and Nova Squadron. They are the best cannon fodder." Tychus Finley, who was wearing a dark gray collared military uniform, looked as if standing beside Augustus. Tall and burly.

"How can you expect such a group of mindless walking dead." Raynor said: "I am working on arranging an elite unit, drawing the bravest fighters from various units in the Ranger."

At this moment, many glare lights appeared around the Hyperion due to the distortion of time and space, and more revolutionary warships jumped into the Vadona galaxy.There are as many as twenty of these battleships, each of which is shining golden red and magnificent.

The leaping revolutionary fleet immediately joined the attack on the Behemoth Behemoths of Yemengarde, intending to force these unparalleled giant monsters to evacuate the Vadona galaxy.

"This is not right." Renault said: "Vadona belongs to the core world. When she is attacked, the Federation fleet should be able to arrive here soon. But now it seems that there is no fleet stationed here."

"Unless another more important core world is attacked." Augustus pointed to a planet named Brontes on the battle map: "Information shows that the swarm of gams is aggressively invading this important core world." In the colonial world, at least one federal naval squadron guarding Bronte was severely damaged, and several federal fleets were engaged in a bitter battle there."

"There is only one Behemoth in the Vadona galaxy, which seems to be within an acceptable range. The federal army guarding the planet should not have been defeated by the Zerg."

"Has the Zerg landed in Wadona?" Augustus looked at the screen of the battleship sensor on the main screen of the bridge. Shemos remained motionless as a mountain, as if the attack from the naval guns didn't hurt him at all.

"They have already landed in Vadona, but the number is limited." Raynor said: "According to the report of the scouting team, the local planetary defense forces are fighting against the invading Zerg, and the nobles of Vadona are the leaders of these troops .”

"After all, this is their hometown." Augustus said with emotion.

"Prepare to deploy an airborne division to assist the local army in defeating the invading Zerg. Vadona is not a world rich in warriors. This planet has enjoyed peace for too long. Their suffering cannot be compared with that of the Korha. ."He said.

"It's time to tell the People's Revolutionary Army in the core world that they are the ones who can really protect them."

At this time, a blasting team headed for the Federal Space Station under the arrangement of Renault has already set off.The order from the Marshal is being delivered to the transport ship of the 1st Airborne Division of the Revolutionary Army, which is an army mainly composed of Tyrador, Haiji, Antiga and Keha IV mountain people. The area is high and mountainous, and paragliding and skydiving are popular local sports.

A number of revolutionary army transport ships full of soldiers are sailing towards Wadona under the escort of fighter planes, and the posture of these transport ships moving together is very powerful.

"Received a communication from the Wadona Federation Command Center." At this time, an unknown call jumped out.

"Come in." Augustus nodded.

"It's a waste of time to say a few more words to you federal rebels." It was a federal vice admiral, and he was actually wearing a general's uniform and a richly decorated hat.

"I've heard this at least five times." Renault retched and said, "Don't they know talking to bedbugs is also disgusting?"

"What's your opinion?" Augustus had no expression on his face.

"Tarsonis' fleet will arrive soon, and I advise you to leave as soon as possible, which is good for all of us." The Federation Lieutenant General said casually: "Everyone will save trouble."

"Don't you come all the way to ask for money? A group of mobs, I can't imagine what will happen if you break into Wadona."

"One hundred and eight thousand light-years away." Renault said sharply.

"Shut up, general, this will make me think that the professionalism of federal generals is nothing more than that." Feeling bored, Augustus cut off the communication with this federal lieutenant general. If the other party is not a stubborn person, Augustus thought it worth going on.

"Don't say polite words to these federal bastards. We have finally reached a good place, Augustus, ha ↑ ha ↓, take down Vadona, the fame and fortune are yours, and the women are mine."

"Stop your gangsters, Tychus, we are not robbers or thieves." Augustus had reprimanded Tychus more than once.

"Or four or six points?" Tychus retreated.

"You'd better shut up," Kerrigan said coldly.Augustus' old Ministry of Heaven's Demons enjoys a high reputation among the Revolutionary Army, but Kerrigan will not pretend.Tychus in particular is, for the most part, a loathsome fellow who only gets his compliments from those who share his stink.

"That's right, don't be a pirate or a bandit." Jim Raynor also criticized Tychus, saying: "Our cause is much nobler than that, don't always say cheap things."

"I'm just blunt," Tychus said in his own defense, nonchalantly.Tychus Finley doesn't have much lofty goals. Sometimes he wants to be a hero, but more often he is just a selfish philistine.

Tychus is surrounded by a group of revolutionaries and idealists, only he is a big villain.

"Okay, let me go down and meet those bugs and the Vadona for a while." Tychus's expression was almost evil: "The Vadona might be willing to pay some for our blood. Protection money, I hear they're rich."

"I'll let Jimmy follow you." Augustus said coldly, "You monster can't let your temper run wild."
