StarCraft: Tyranid Empire.

Chapter 435

"A lightsaber, quite a cool weapon." Augustus made a brief evaluation, then turned to Kerrigan and said.

"Still in the experimental stage?"

"A prototype of an energy sword that must be activated by psionic energy. The one in the Valhalla weapons laboratory is just a light stick Funding," Kerrigan replied.

"The designer took inspiration from the protoss' psionic blade, so the color of the lightsaber is also determined by the user's psionic type. This light blade has a blade thickness of only one molecule, which can cut through armor and energy shield."

"How long will it take to develop the first prototype lightsaber that can be used for testing?" Augustus asked.

Not only the psychic lightsaber that looks quite new, but also many design blueprints of electric pulse weapons, plasma weapons, virus weapons, etc. on the screen, some of which may be epoch-making even from the current point of view.

"It depends on the investment of funds and the actual progress of the team." Kerrigan said: "Right now, the concept of psionic weapons is too advanced. Also, ordinary soldiers who do not have psionic powers cannot use such weapons. "

"Or the protoss phaser Karax can help us?" Augustus thought.

"Hmm, the protoss must be experts in this area." Kerrigan shrugged.

"Most of the weapons here are not suitable for mass production. They are either specially equipped for special operations forces like psychic agents, or they are too expensive." He stopped on the cannon, and the above introduction made him very interested-the range is 131KM, the mountains are moved to fill the sea, and the masts and sculls are wiped out in ashes!Build an earth-shattering cannon, and the fate of hundreds of millions of lives is at your fingertips!

Judging from the design drawings, these epic-level super cannons will be unprecedented in size and caliber, and are the product of raising the caliber of the cannon to an incredible level.In the eyes of the director of the Valhalla Weapons Laboratory, this weapon is so incredible that he described it as a Caesar cannon.

Although there is no complete design drawing for this cannon named Earthshatter, it is only in the designer's routine blowing stage.

"If you want to fight against an increasingly powerful enemy, the weapons of the past are obviously outdated." Augustus pointed to the design drawing of the Earth Fragmentation Cannon: "I think this can continue to be developed."

"Well, if we can build [-] or more super cannons in Keha." The words reached Arcturus's heart, and he had a paranoid obsession with Keha's destruction.

"As soon as possible, sort out all the weapon design drawings, and I will see them in the captain's cabin of the Huberian tomorrow." Augustus said: "Then I will pack these for Swan and Catchings Kei, let them have a headache."

"The Federation battleship was found in the Sigmaris galaxy, at coordinates M7, 118, about four astronomical units away from the Hyperion." At this time, a bridge observer reported.

"They're finally here." Augustus' face remained unchanged: "How many warships are there?"

"Seven ships, and more jump signals are appearing, and radar scans are being uploaded." The observer replied.

A few seconds later, the main screen of the Hyperion displayed radar scanning images of several Tyrannian Federation battlecruisers.

"Which federal squadron is it?" Arcturus's gray eyes flickered.

"It's Delta Squadron." A crew member reported.

"According to reliable information, the most powerful federal squadrons, such as Omega Squadron, are guarding Tarsonis, but there are also quite a few naval fleets cruising around the periphery of the federal core star field." Augustus said.

"This means that we are going deep into the core world of the Federation."

"Just in time." The heads of generals such as Horace Warfield, Edmund Duke and Jackson Hole appeared on the main screen.

"My Hyperion is at the front, and the entire fleet is in assault formation." Augustus was wearing a slender dark gray military uniform, and even the hems of his trousers were ironed straight.

"Crush Delta from the front!"

The bridge of the Hyperion tilted to adjust its direction. Hundreds of frigates, destroyers, Avenger fighters, Wraith fighters, and Hercules transport ships passed under the portholes of the bridge. Two giant revolutionary army ships painted in gold and red The beast-class battlecruiser approached here from one side.

"Delta Squadron has more battlecruisers than the formation standard requires, and there are 27 ships." Duke's tone was a bit strange, and I don't know if he was sour.

"Scanning shows that part of this fleet comes from Beta Squadron." A Hyperion observer said.

"Sigma Squadron's flagship Thanatos jumped in. More than 35 Federation battlecruisers are attacking our fleet."

"Open the shield and move forward at full speed." Augustus ordered.

"This is likely the largest fleet of the Tyranid Federation outside of Tarsonis," Kerrigan said.

"The deployment of this fleet by the Federation should not have been used to deal with us." Arcturus speculated: "I suspect that they may have encountered the Earth fleet before this, and such a messy organization is proof."

"It will take us a while to find out which galaxy the Tyranid Federation and the UED just fought in." Augustus said: "And what we have to do is to take this opportunity to completely wipe out this fleet."

"However, the Federation's fleet is almost equal to ours, and their battlecruisers are obviously more advanced." Kerrigan said worriedly.

"Lieutenant Kerrigan, you can't judge whether a war is evenly matched by numbers." Arcturus's tone to Kerrigan was obviously more friendly than to other ghost agents.

"If we are playing a game of chess with the naval commander of the Tyrann Federation, then you don't have to follow the rules at all. You can regret the game, you can add a few more pieces, and you can also overturn the entire chessboard."

After all, this young woman was likely to produce a powerful heir for Augustus.Even considering this alone, Kerrigan should be a hero to the Mengsk family.

Of course, Arcturus wouldn't mind finding the next suitable wife for his brother if Kerrigan's stomach wasn't up to par.At the same time, Arcturus also had doubts that Augustus's heir might be a psyker, which caused him to often vacillate between Kerrigan and other candidates.

"Half of the Behemoth-class battlecruisers in the fleet are now equipped with Yamato guns and shields, only a few Leviathan-class and too old battleships have not." Augustus said to Kerrigan.

"We need an electrifying victory to convince supporters of the Revolutionary Army that victory is just around the corner."

Now the newly built warships of the Revolutionary Army Shipyard are equipped with Yamato cannons during the construction process, and the Protoss Kalai phase technicians led by Karax, who were borrowed from Tassadar by Augustus, have fully upgraded the revolution. After the shield technology and related production lines of the army warships, the combat effectiveness of the revolutionary army warships will be much higher than that of the Tyrann Federation.

The Federal Navy still does not have a large number of Yamato cannons, because the Yamato cannons they mainly imitated from the Revolutionary Army are immature in technology and difficult to carry out large-scale transformation.The Federation has also built too many new warships, and there are not enough shipyards to renovate their amazing output of old warships.

The battle between nearly eighty battlecruisers and tens of thousands of warplanes and warships is magnificent. It is a magnificent sight. The steel battleship that mankind is most proud of is standing in the center of the Sigmaris galaxy with the most brutal , the most brutal form of warfare.

Augustus's flagship, the Hyperion, was at the forefront of all the Revolutionary Army warships. Of course, it was fired by at least eight Federation warships, but all attacks were completely blocked by the golden shield raised by Hyperion. Absorbed, in the end the warship trembled like a full belch.

Without any warning, several Revolutionary Army battlecruisers headed by the Hyperion began to recharge their Yamato cannons.In less than a few minutes, like orange-red lightning tearing through the dark sky, the first salvo of the Revolutionary Army Fleet hit eleven Federation battlecruisers.

The first salvo of Yamato guns kicked seven Federation battleships out of the battlefield, while the rest were severely damaged.The Hyperion's main gun fire even destroyed a Delta Squadron battlecruiser in one fell swoop, and almost wiped out its entire bow.

By the time the commander of the Union fleet realized that their chances of winning the battle were getting slimmer, they were already mired in the quagmire of the war and it was difficult to get out.

Dense bright orange laser beams swept across the entire battlefield, and a large number of hulk wrecks were thrown to the edge of the galaxy. Every piece of twisted, burning black scrap iron may have buried hundreds of fleet soldiers.

At the height of the battle, the flagship of the Revolutionary Army, the Hyperion, faced the broadside firepower pouring down from more than five Federation battlecruisers, approaching the Nemesis of the Delta Squadron. Its blue steel plate armor was covered with The energy shield that burns like a flame is like the surface of a burning star.

The Hyperion, powered by a Protoss Ark solar core, was like a flaming phoenix, stunned the federal navy soldiers who had never seen this picture.

When the laser cannon group of the Federation battlecruiser shot at the Huberian, it seemed to hit the star that could absorb all the energy, and all the attacks were useless. The Lian's sun-shining shields were like fish in water when they were on it, completely wiped away with an eraser.

"I remember that when the Umoyans and I just salvaged the Hyperion from that barren planet, she was still a spaceship that was difficult to repair. The cruiser's new technology is out of touch." Arcturus has never seen the Hyperion's gun roar.

As Augustus ordered to continuously increase the shield energy output of the Hyperion, the portholes of its bridge shone brighter and brighter, as if a thousand suns were rising.

"Protoss technology." Augustus said to Arcturus.

"For my sake, the protoss helped me slightly transform the Hyperion."

Before Augustus finished speaking, the Hyperion's main gun fired. If it wasn't in a vacuum, its roar at this moment would be enough to make the whole city tremble.

A Beta Squadron battleship was hit head-on, and a beam of golden beams split the entire thing in two, like a hot knife cutting through butter.

"The Nemesis is only twelve miles, nine miles, four miles away from Hyperion, and is about to collide." The expert radar observer on the Hyperion reported.

From Augustus' vantage point, Delta Squadron's flagship, the Nemesis, was getting so close that he could almost see the orange lights and an ironic smiley face on its bridge.

"Who is commanding this battleship? What does he want to do." Arcturus didn't panic, he almost smiled: "Once upon a time, I also used this tactic."

"Last year, I followed an exploration team to search for new high-energy gas deposits, but encountered pirates in a galaxy. At that time, there were only a few small boats not much bigger than the 'canoe' by my side." He said.

"But the situation of the pirates will not be much better than ours. I ordered my pilot to drive the spaceship to crash into the pirate ship of the Viking pirates, and hit the belly of the spaceship with a harpoon torpedo when the other party wanted to avoid it."

"A life for a life."

"Crash into it." Augustus grabbed the iron railing beside the bridge connecting the bridge and said, "Our shields and armor are harder."

"Get ready for impact!"

Augustus stretched out a hand to Kerrigan, indicating that he could hug him, while Arcturus just watched the bridge porthole quietly, as if no amount of tremors could shake his mountain-like Majestic body: "I wear the latest Umoyan-designed magnetic boots, which can fix me on any deck."

A powerful flash of light lit up the entire bridge, and the bow of the Hyperion collided head-on with Delta Squadron's flagship Nemesis, whose bow immediately cocked to one side, while the Hyperion remained unscathed.

The violent impact almost made Augustus's hands tremble non-stop, and it was only Kerrigan who pulled him to keep him from falling to the ground.

"The energy of the shield has been consumed by 70.00% five." The captain of the Huberian reported to Augustus.

"Estimated to be fully charged within 1 minute."

At the port porthole of the Hyperion, the completely crushed and battered bow of the Nemesis was passing by, and its solid steel armor was already rotten.

Even in this situation, the sides of the Huberian and the Nemesis were still firing non-stop, and the orange-red laser barrage slanted within a short distance, as if to melt the armor.

The Nemesis was far more damaged, her bow almost completely shrunk by ninety feet, her armor covered with burn marks from the Hyperion's firing.

"Send the landing craft, I want to take down this battleship." Augustus shouted after standing firm.

"Where's Tychus?"
