StarCraft: Tyranid Empire.

Chapter 365 Restarting the Colossus
The ruins of Ruran III are located in the western outskirts of Sodoan City. The lowland hills covered with sparse yellow herbaceous plants and the immortal ruins standing among them like thousands of tombs constitute an amazing and splendid relic here.

The Kemerian settlers on Luria IV have always kept a distance from these ruins of ancient civilizations, and their ancestors have passed down ancient legends about these ruined cities.

To this day, the most insightful elders among the residents of Sodogan are still reminding their descendants not to disturb the former owners of the ruins.

"It seems that there are not only the ancient buildings of the Protoss here, but also those of Xel'Naga?" Kerrigan climbed up a hill piled up with rocks before Augustus, wearing a dark blue ghost combat uniform. The edge of the buttocks under her clothes trembled with the movement of her legs.

Sarah Kerrigan wears a black belt around her waist, on which hangs two P-180 pistols, another Z-series electromagnetic rifle, and at least four scabbards.

"It's not just the Xel'Naga. There are many lives in the universe like gravel, and their civilization may have once shone on the stars." Augustus, who was following Kerrigan, looked away from the former and looked at the city not far away. Among the ancient buildings among the red thorns.

Those are the remains of ancient civilizations that are older than the main building of the protoss buried underground, and they have experienced even longer than the geological layers.

Even though it was built by civilizations of unknown forms countless epochs ago, even if the relics left in the wind and sand are less than one ten-thousandth of the past glory, the amazing aesthetic proportions and structural livability shown by these ancient civilizations It can also dwarf the modern buildings of human settlements.

The surviving wall is not magnificent either, but it is still possible to see the frescoes and well-proportioned lines painted with painted paints.This civilization must also be good at sculpture or refined jewelry. The square stele built in the ruins depicts everything in the past with abstract and incomprehensible lines.

In that location, hundreds of soldiers and engineers in the dark gray or blue uniforms of the Revolutionary Army are using large excavators to clear and excavate the buried ruins in the hard loess of Luria, so that these buildings that once stood in the shining sun See you again.

Soldiers and workers are stacking white metal boxes containing a large number of sophisticated archaeological equipment according to the request of the archaeologists accompanying the revolutionary army. Large excavators and lifting equipment have piled up several extremely high mounds on the original site of the ruins.

The special thing about Augustus's Keha Revolutionary Army is that they will not only recruit people with lofty ideals as a source of new soldiers during the fleet's movement, but also carry a large number of scholars and archaeologists with the army.Most of these scholars came from Korha after the Japanese occupation. Under the call of the marshal, they joined the excavation and research work of the remains of alien civilization.

"I seem to see the lights from hundreds of millions of years ago." Augustus looked at these buildings and said, "Maybe they don't need the lights, who can say for sure."

The area of ​​the ruins is astonishingly vast. It was once a lost city that had been buried and was rediscovered after several geological changes.

"The protoss discovered the ruins of civilization here and built a stasis facility to house the Colossus, but why would they do that?" Kerrigan asked.

"We have to ask the Supreme Council of the Protoss Empire at that time." Augustus shrugged: "People can't understand the practices of the Protoss."

"And if the Federation has this kind of weapon, they will definitely not hide it."

"As far as humans are concerned, building or using colossi is illegal, and its guilt is equivalent to violating the teachings of Dawu." Kerrigan said: "This ancient weapon is so terrifying that the protoss themselves are silent about it. It's so deep, I don't want to mention it."

"The city was turned into fly ash, and the army was evaporated, leaving black spots on the ground made up of countless corpses." Zeratul, the headmaster of the Protoss Dark Templar Smoke rises between Augustus and Kerrigan.

"Elder, you must have found a facility to seal the colossus." Augustus has long been familiar with Zeratul's sudden appearance, and the timing and speed of his arrival are as unpredictable as when he disappeared.

"The Protector Zamara, who followed the Executor Tassadar, knows the coordinates of the containment facility here, which is one of the reasons we came here," Zeratul explained.

"After coming here, we were surprised to find that most of the containment facilities were still intact, and the Kelmorian human nuclear warheads did not destroy it." His spiritual language hit Augustus's mind directly.

"We quickly determined the specific coordinates and tried to wake up the dormant stasis facility. Thanks to the help of anthropologists, without them, the activities of the protoss on this planet would likely be regarded as a malicious event. Invasion."

"And we have no intention of going to war with the Kel-Morian humans, nor do we wish to harm them by the measures we are forced to take in self-defense."

In any case, when the Protoss fleet appears in the Luria galaxy, the Kemerians there will definitely fall into a much stronger fear than meeting the Revolutionary Army. They will definitely stop the Protoss fleet from approaching their own planet at all costs. And in vain sought support from the mother planet Moria.

Since the rumors of the protoss destroying Sara's sister planet have spread to most of the human worlds, the bad impression they left in the hearts of humans has been deeply ingrained.

It's just that, except for the Zerg, humans have rarely seen the rumored terrifying alien protoss.

"When the Ke-Morians swing a hammer at a protoss facility they don't understand, the hammer will probably hurt themselves." Kerrigan nodded, as a recognition of Zeratul's words.

"So, when can we see those steel giants made of metal?"

"It's coming soon." When Zeratul was speaking, at a position about fifteen hundred yards away from the hill where Augustus was, the ground suddenly began to shake.

The archaeologists and engineers in the area have been evacuated, and everyone is watching there, apparently having been notified in advance by the protoss.

In the smoke and dust flying all over the sky, ruined walls began to rise from the ground, and a huge building shining with golden light gradually appeared in front of Augustus amidst the huge roar.

It was a classic protoss-style building with ornate vaults, with honeycomb-shaped support walls that converged at the top to form a dome with rounded peaks.Reliefs of the arbitrator class and the great protoss executives are carved on the glittering walls. The protoss, who pay attention to the beauty of proportion, used ingenious architectural skills to create this magnificent facility.

Even if it is only used to seal a few war weapons banned by the Supreme Council, it is actually a cage, its exquisite structure and beautiful patterns, and its artistic achievements are enough for the engineers of the Revolutionary Army to admire. And the building materials it uses are known only to the master craftsmen of the protoss.

If this is a human building, it can also be called a miracle in the history of human architecture.

This protoss building is surrounded by three obelisks engraved with protoss scripts. A large number of protoss mechanical servants and machines with insect limbs are cleaning dust outside the building or cutting stones.

"It's unbelievable." Augustus sighed, "The Protoss Empire actually sealed such a weapon of war on such a fringe planet far away from Aiur, as if they thought it would never be used again." they."

"After the Protoss Empire beat a civilization named Kalash back to the Stone Age in a war, and created countless scenes of killing and corpses, the Colossus was completely banned by the Supreme Council. I shouldn't comment on the Supreme Council. Decision-making." Zeratul said: "We always overestimate the size and wisdom of the ruler, which is a mistake most of the time."

"The Colossus was not built by the Dark Templar of Nerazim, it was a product of the bloody arbitration era of the Protoss Empire." He continued: "It was born purely for killing."

"My people believe that once the fleet of the Protoss Empire finds the Dark Templar, they will undoubtedly use this weapon to kill all Nerazim warriors."

"Let's take a closer look. I've never seen a weapon that's only in legends." Augustus took two steps forward, walked towards the hill, and walked towards the rising golden and blue protoss building.

"It's dangerous there." Kerrigan tried to stop Augustus.

"There are too many dangerous places. I am not a child in a crib." Augustus walked there stubbornly, and Zeratul silently jumped over Kerrigan to follow the Revolutionary Army Marshal. Gan could only shake his head and catch up with them.

Augustus can be regarded as Zeratul's best friend to humans, and also the bond of friendship between protoss and humans. Neither Zeratul nor Tassadar hope that he will encounter any accidents.

"Opening it requires an order from the Supreme Council or an arbitrator." Zeratul walked beside Augustus, his broad feet quietly stepping on the land full of sharp gravel in Luria, but did not feel any discomfort.

"Unfortunately, Tassadar has not been approved by the Supreme Council." Augustus said with a smile: "And if the Supreme Council of Ayr hears that Tassadar is going to reactivate the Colossus, the arbitrators will probably be angry and rush Come here and execute the ex-executive on the spot."

"They will find out soon enough," Zeratul said with his rare dry humor.

After walking for a few minutes and passing through several revolutionary cranes and tanks with yellow camouflage, Augustus bumped into Renault and Victor Kaczynski, the number two in the engineering team.

In the distance, hundreds of El Protoss Templars and Phase Technicians had jumped to the surface at some point, and Tassadar, the commander of the Protoss Expeditionary Force, was also standing among the Templars.

"You'd better stand with me, Augustus, you know that thing's three-dimensional defense system has killed dozens of Kel Morian miners in the blink of an eye, who knows what trouble it will cause." Renault's words made Augustus nodded slightly, the distance was enough for him to see the majesty of the colossus.

"This is the defense facility of the protoss centuries ago. Even compared to humans today, it is unimaginably advanced." Victor said.

"The protoss will not object to us installing this defense facility on a mobile fortress or a space station." The weapons expert and top engineer from Moria said amazingly.

"I think the protoss probably won't give this to us." Augustus tactfully asked Victor to put away his bold ideas. This young man from Kaczynski always wanted to put Protoss weapons are grafted to humans.

While talking, an image with a shining starlight background suddenly appeared in the sky above the Protoss building. A Protoss wearing a gorgeous gold-blue Protoss helmet and a scarlet robe appeared. He The top of the cloak bears the crest of Yara, the Arbiter of the Protoss tribe.

"Warning, travelers of other races, you have stepped into the restricted area." The protoss arbitrator issued a warning to Augustus and others in the majestic ancient Kalani language.

This was apparently a pre-recorded sight, emitted by the intelligent system of the building housing the Colossus.

"This is a warning, please leave here, otherwise blood will flow into rivers."

"It can't recognize you?" Augustus looked at Zeratul next to him, noticing that the other party's shining eyes became deeper.

"Executive officers do not have the authority to awaken the Colossus." Zeratul's understanding of the Protoss Empire comes from Tassadar: "Even the protectors with high status do not have it. They are just recorders and give opinions, and they do not participate in politics and duty of military command."

"In other words, the master here is not going to open the door to us." Renault said after hearing Zeratul's words.

"My grandfather told me that at this time you should break in with a hammer," Augustus said. "Only ask the owner for permission after entering."

Before the words fell, a beam of high-heat energy beams from the protoss suddenly fell from the sky, cutting the dome of the building with the precision of a scalpel.

This immediately aroused the response of the defense system, and its outer wall gleaming with blue light immediately opened like insect wings, revealing countless photon light cannons and movable turrets, and several of the light cannons were even larger in caliber than Gotta get the Hyperion's Yamato cannon.

It is conceivable that once these densely packed light cannons are activated and fired, the land within a radius of more than ten miles will be reduced to scorched earth.

But before these light cannons, the blue light shining on their surfaces due to being filled with energy immediately dimmed. It must be that Tassadar's phase technicians cut off the energy supply facilities of the weapon system.

In the elliptical dome neatly cut by the light beam, the head of the colossus made of shining golden metal and blue aiming mechanism has been revealed in the sunlight. Its metal structure with great beauty and war aesthetics extends to the unimaginable Height, even soaring into the clouds.

Augustus could foresee that this terrible ancient weapon of war would definitely be able to bring great assistance to the combined forces of Tassadar and the Human Revolutionary Army in the upcoming Cruel Aiur Battle.

"One, two, three." Kerrigan counted silently, pausing at the number three.

"Three." Augustus nodded.

"That's not enough."

At this time, a high-ranking templar came to Augustus and Zeratul, and he brought Tassadar's words: "Another stasis chamber on the asteroid in the Luria galaxy has been destroyed. Two of the colossi were missing."

"What? Humans from Kel-Morian?" Zeratul said in amazement.

"If they have this ability, they will definitely not abandon the colossus here." Augustus looked at the high-ranking templar.

"Calli's phase technician found a few protoss corpses who had just died there." The high-ranking templar said: "They were dressed in black armor and red robes, and the characters used on them were similar to those of the ancient times before the catastrophe. The text is very similar."

"The protector Zamara suspects that they are probably the ancient protoss who followed the Xel'nagar away from Aiur before the Endless Era."

"I know them." Augustus groaned and said calmly:

"The robber, the liar, and the thief."
