StarCraft: Tyranid Empire.

Chapter 409 The Ark
Some time later, the Revolutionary Army built an alien laboratory in the remains of the Temple of the Protector.

The delicate instruments and equipment in the laboratory have been messed up by the rampage of tunnel worms digging underground.Egon Stetman is one of the people in charge here, and he's clearly feeling the pinch.

More than half of these devices are names that Stetman can't pronounce. Just seeing the grumpy expression of his teacher, Dr. Franks, you can tell how expensive they are.Two years ago, the doctor was still a staunch supporter of the Tyranid Federation, but now he is called Mengsk's lackey and the scum of the scientific community by the mainstream media in the core world.

However, Augustus Mengsk didn't care about the loss of these devices at all. Compared with a battle that decided the fate of the Protoss Empire and even mankind, it was not worth mentioning at all.

Numerous protoss dark templars stood on the lab's cracked metal floor, all clad in dark purple robes, long veils or helmets and masks adorned with zerg teeth and claws.

These dark templars are the elite of their race, members of the Shadow Guard who guard the protoss matriarch Sacoolas.

In front of a gate with folded leaves like a folding fan, strong and sharp-clad protoss templars are walking in, their heavy boots hitting the ground like rumbling drums.

Leading the team were Phoenix and Artanis, who were talking to Augustus with Zeratul, the leader of the Dark Templar.Standing beside Augustus and listening attentively, Stetman had never seen so many big men in one day. The executive officer of the protoss had an extraordinary bearing and a firm mind. He looked at the trembling poor Apprentice always with pity and mercy.

"Aigon, what's going on, you're shaking." Renault said, looking at Stetman with his head down in doubt.

"The protoss are nothing to be afraid of. In Swan's words, they are just a group of aliens with big brains."

"Huh!" Stetman jumped up nervously, and his speech was surprisingly fast: "Studies have shown that the strength of psionic power is related to the structure of certain areas in the brain, and in this regard, the protoss obviously It has evolved to a fairly complete level."

"However, physiological differences lead to different ethical concepts between Protoss and humans, which makes them have a gap with humans on the issue of honor, but deeper research may involve the fields of philosophy and morality."

"Oh, I didn't ask you this." Renault pointed to Artanis next to him: "Don't be afraid of the child, the protoss will not hurt you."

"Hello, Egon Stetman, I have seen many human beings, and their spiritual purity is far less than yours." Artanis cast a good-natured glance: "I know he is not afraid Protoss, simply because there are too many people here-this is rare among protoss."

"Aigon is still very talkative in his field of expertise, well, go and help Francis clean up the mess, he is about to blow up like a boiling pressure cooker now." Augustus patted Sitai Terman's shoulders, the latter was immediately relieved and left happily like a puppy out of the cage.

"The boy has a good heart," said Raynor.

"As long as someone can give him the right leadership, Egon Stetman's achievements in the future will surely exceed our imagination." Augustus said looking at Stetman's back.

"You say that to everyone." Renault shrugged: "Your achievements will not be limited to the fool's foolish opinion. Your potential is far beyond your imagination."

"This time is different." Augustus also shrugged.

"You said the same thing last time," Renault said.

"It was different last time," said Augustus.

"Artanis, you failed to find Aurega and his Fist of Aurega again? That means they may rush out to make trouble at any time, which is bad news." Augustus looked at Artanis and Zeratul, go back to what you just talked about.

Augustus said: "Regardless of what Aurega and the bosses behind him want to do, their most obvious purpose has been achieved, which is to provoke a war between the Supreme Council and us."

"It's not as simple as revenge, he wants to weaken the power of the Protoss Empire."

"Orega, I will definitely hunt him down to the ends of the earth." Zeratul swore firmly.

"Anyway, Orega's goal must have been achieved. Countless warriors are waving butcher knives at their fellow clans—I thought that the fall of Al was the end of this catastrophe, but I didn't expect that But the beginning of a crueler end," Artanis said to Augustus.

"This meaningless civil war must be ended as soon as possible, and for this I have assembled the best fighters in the Akiri tribe."

"Cerebrate α, how is the progress? The swarm has already excavated a large number of intertwined and complicated worm tunnel networks in the underground of Koshaka Province, as long as you use these tunnels." Augustus was about to ask the brain in the glass container. Worm α's progress was interrupted directly.

"Shut up, I'm manipulating those tunnel worms. Don't interfere with the judgment of a swarm master." The brain worm turned over and moved its tail: "The excavation work is also part of the master's grand plan. A layman questioned."

As the top layer of the mind of the Zerg main hive, the Cerebral Worm can directly take over the control of the bodies of its group members when controlling the Zerg, or command the endless Zerg to charge.At this moment, this brain worm is controlling the tunnel worm to open up the wormhole network leading to the province of Koshaka, the capital of the Protoss Empire.

It has to be said that Cerebral Worm α never tires of digging holes, and nothing can bring him more sense of security than dark and damp tunnels and caves.

"It's almost finished!" Cerebral Worm α proudly announced to Augustus and others more than ten seconds later, without realizing that he seemed to be asking for credit: "I have opened a direct link to the Provincial Council of Koshaka. The underground passage of the Heart, through this insect passage, the insect swarm can directly appear in the heart of the Protoss Empire."

"Servants, the time of destruction has come. Devouring the protoss, the swarm will surely reach the end of evolution."

"I am the swarm!"

"Action." Augustus nodded and looked at Zeratul: "According to the plan, Zeratul, you and your Dark Templar will launch the most fatal blow first."

"Shadow Guard, sons of Sacoolas, come with me, all for Aiur." Zeratul quickly took away his dark templar warriors, whose robes fluttered as they marched together, as if flowing shadows.

"We will try to avoid killing as much as possible, but we will never show mercy."

"And then my Templars." Artanis continued: "Once Zeratul successfully enters the heart of the Council and forces the arbitrators to surrender, I will lead the Templars to control the entire Council."

"We know Koshaka's terrain like the back of our hands," Phoenix said. "The Templars guarding there have many of my old friends. They must be willing to listen to me."

Artanis and Phoenix led a large number of templars in golden armor to keep up with Zeratul's troops and ran towards the tunnel worm entrance underground in the laboratory.

"We are the important people who will be on the stage at the end. How can there be no revolutionary army in such a big scene?"

When Renault checked the weapons and equipment on his body again, a group of Revolutionary Army Special Forces soldiers in gold-red CMC-300 field porcupine power armor came to them in two long lines. Behind them are more than 20 ghost agents of the Revolutionary Army, who proudly call themselves the ghostly shadows of the Marshal.

"I hope everything will go smoothly." Augustus raised his left hand to look at his watch, counting the time when his troops entered the tunnel worm.

"boom!"

Suddenly, with a dull impact, Augustus and Renault once again set their sights on the thick glass container holding the cerebrates behind them, and they suddenly saw a cerebrate's face pressed against the glass.

This glass container is very large, and the location where the brain worm was just now is hundreds of yards away from the glass curtain wall.Generally speaking, brain worms do not have the ability to move. Their obese bodies can hardly move an inch, and everything is assisted by their own ethnic servants.

"Is he asking for candy?" After being stunned for a fraction of a second, Augustus looked at Renault and said.

"Or did we ignore him just now?" Renault couldn't figure it out. After thinking for a while, he took out a bundle of lollipops from a pocket in his vest, opened a small door on the glass curtain wall and threw them in the The brain worm does not have any exoskeleton and hard skin to protect the forehead.

"." The brain worm picked up the lollipop, rolled away like a caterpillar without saying a word.

When he returned to the TV, he said loudly: "Jim, best friend."

I have to say that, except for the occasional study, the life here is no different from what Cerebral Worm α used to be in the nest. They would have stayed in their nest for a long, long time without moving. .Cerebral worms will know everything about the outside world through communication with other cerebrates and the eyes of group members, and will not feel any depression or discomfort.

After all, the swarm master gave them the mission to command the group when they created the cerebrates, and they didn't need the cerebrates to fight.

"I hope you have a good time, α." Raynor said to the brain worm: "Once we think you are not a threat, we will give you freedom. No one has stipulated that citizens of the Tyrannian Empire cannot be a bug, and no one Deprive a brain worm of the right to shop online."

"Well, Cerebral Worm Alpha is different." Augustus also agreed with what Raynor said: "Alpha is different from all Cerebral Worms. All his words come from an interesting soul."

At this time, Augustus actually had the feeling that he had kept a bug pet.If Cerebral Worm α can really become a protector of the country, Augustus will not have to put the treasure of solving the Zerg problem on the Cerberus Project.

"A great master of the swarm will never be content to beg for mercy. You can't treat the cerebrates as slaves. Everything I do is not priceless." Cerebral worm α may be tired , he quickly returned his attention to the TV.

"Go away, let α watch TV quietly for a while, praise the revolution and benevolent master for the ten thousandth time, and feel the comfortable life he has given us today."

"Okay, you'd better save some food." Reynolds and Augustus looked at each other, "As the old saying goes, even the landlord's family has no food left."

"Did you hear that, he agreed with the name α. Before, this cerebrum always thought it was a shame to accept a name given by someone other than the master." He whispered.

"Maybe, this brain worm is actually just overly proud and arrogant with duplicity?"

"He was like an old friend of mine," Augustus said.

"That old friend must be very angry, because you think he looks like a bug." Renault laughed loudly, his laughter made Cerebral Worm α in the distance tremble, and anger seemed to be brewing in that fat and white body.

"Be quiet, don't let him think we are laughing at him." When Augustus turned his head to leave, he met Kerrigan who was running fast.

"Guards are at the ready," Kerrigan said to Augustus. "Vulture hoverbikes are a must when marching through the guts of a Nydus Worm. The Protoss have similar alternatives, limited by the limits of their flying discs." The speed will reach the destination in a few hours."

"Let's go," said Augustus. "Hopefully this evening we'll settle it all and go back to Koprulo."

Renault waved his hand, and the soldiers walked towards the entrance of the tunnel worms on the lower floor in neat steps. During the period after the tunnel worms woke up, the lower laboratory was covered by the zerg creep secreted by the tunnel worms. cover.

Multiple hills of organic flesh are standing on the creep, covered with a thick layer of hard bones and carapace, the entrance is like a monster's bloody mouth, the sharp teeth seem to be able to enter The zerg in it dialed in.

Augustus boarded a golden-red Vulture car, and ordered the ashen-faced Renault to sit behind him: "What's the matter with you, Jimmy. Do you have any doubts about my driving skills?"

"Just let me drive the Marshal," Kerrigan said to Augustus.

"You never think about the people in the back seat. Last time you almost threw out the political officer your father sent from Umoyan to help you."

"Sorry." Augustus wouldn't mind having Kerrigan in company, but he'd rather be with Raynor, and there's nothing more adrenaline-fueled than racing through a tunnel worm.

Augustus had to get in Kerrigan's car and put on his seat belt, and when the tunnel worm entrance began to squirm, a large number of worm fields and flesh-colored soft tissues were turned out.As Kerrigan slammed the Vulture into motion, Augustus' eyes were suddenly plunged into darkness.

The intestinal tract of a tunnel worm is like a straight tunnel, without any light source other than the headlights inside, surrounded by the solid body and flexible cartilage of the tunnel worm.The smell in it wasn't exactly foul, but it wasn't much better than a sewer either.

The convoy drove for nearly three hours before arriving at the exit of the tunnel worm.When Augustus was blinded by a reappearing flash, an incomparable giant underground grotto appeared in front of him.

The glass-smooth walls of the cave are inlaid with blue natural crystals, and the walls extend infinitely upwards, left, and right, and the dome is as high and unattainable as the sky.In the very center of the cave, a huge golden-blue ship that seems to support the entire dome stands standing amidst the sparkling crystal light and the vibrant matrix resonance sound, shaped like the tip of a spear.She was grander than all mortal warships hitherto, like a thousand golden cities built side by side.
