StarCraft: Tyranid Empire.

"Don't panic, Faraday, I've faced enemies a thousand times more vicious than this primordial zerg."

From the office to the restaurant in the Augustegrad Palace, Faraday, the captain of the royal guard, is persuading the emperor to take refuge in the underground chamber.

Just now, the palace received a warning that the wanted original Zerg was coming this way.

Although as the most heavily guarded place in Augustegrad, the Imperial Palace is the largest and most impenetrable fortress, guarded by the most elite and loyal royal guards, neither Augustus nor Faraday thought that the primitive Zerg can step into the palace.

But Faraday still hopes that the emperor can stay in a safe enough place as much as possible, because he knows that this is the only thing that cannot be lost.

"But." Faraday wanted to say something, but the emperor just signaled him not to be nervous.

"But... I was not born to die at the hands of Zerg." Augustus said to Faraday: "You are not a novice anymore, take it easy."

"If that primordial zerg wants to enter the palace, that's your chance to capture it alive," he said:
"You know what to do."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Faraday had to obey.

That's what the emperor is, a go-getter of action who prefers to rise to the occasion rather than sit in the safety of the back seat and wait for the outcome.

The corridor decorated with mosaic tiles is very long, and the exquisite artworks on the counters on both sides are silent under the brilliance of the stone pendant lights, and the portraits of the ancestors of the Mengsk family on the walls are calmly watching the emperor with long-distance eyes.

Augustus cared more about the war on the front lines than the primordial zerg that had slipped into Augustograd.

Since the start of the Battle of Tasha, it has officially launched a full-scale war with the original swarm, and more than [-] colonies, outpost worlds, and mining worlds have fallen into war.

This is the biggest alien war since the founding of the country, and even the imperial fleet, which is considered to be unrivaled, is in a bitter fight.

Although strategically, the Imperial Fleet has the advantage with far less military losses than the original Zerg, the frightening thing about the Primal Zerg is that they can directly absorb the genes of the dead of the same kind. more powerful.

For example, although the original mother, Slivan, died, a new tribal leader, the cave mother, Murva, was born from the many offspring who ate her body alive.The new leader, Mulva, led the tribe that belonged to Slivan once again to join the battle. They believed that there could only be one winner in this original competition with them.

Either, the original zerg devoured humans and became stronger, or humans devoured them, this is the survival law of this race.

Every day brings good news and bad news from the front lines. In general, the Imperial fleet withstood the stormy offensive of the primitive swarm as expected, but the salient was inevitably abandoned. Fortunately, the personnel It has been evacuated ahead of schedule.

Casualties were still inevitable, with reports of dead from the front increasing by the day.It would be a daunting task for the officer in charge who had to send out death notices, but someone had to do it.

Notifications of death are not sent to families in the form of cold emails and letters in the post. Instead, officers from the army in which the victim died are dispatched to visit.Of course, these officers would rightfully be regarded as black crows reporting mourning. …

Augustus immediately ordered that the pension work for the families of the fallen soldiers be started immediately. The pension must be paid in one lump sum, and the family members will also enjoy preferential treatment in housing, shopping and education.If a family is established, the empire will cover the expenses of their children until they come of age.

It is precisely because of this that Augustus has been wearing black clothes these days.

The Emperor's grief was felt by the people of the Empire without any long speeches, for no one else had seen him cry.

When they walked to the door of the restaurant, several court maids were walking in with trays.Since the outbreak of the war, Augustus never went to the restaurant to eat, but ate with the officers of the General Staff in the combat center.

Today, these rich foods are not prepared for Augustus.

"Are you going to welcome the distinguished guests from Zerus here? My lord." The cerebrum in the uniform of the imperial marshal was enjoying the food on the table, and swallowed a huge Tarsonis morsel with his tongue. turkey.

"Save some, save some!" His Majesty the Emperor said:
"You gluttonous brain worm, why did the master create such a wonderful flower like you?"

This brain worm is likely to be the last brain worm created by Master. The biggest difference between it and other brain worms is its extremely strong plasticity.

Because it is so weird and refuses to accept the rule of the new master, Augustus often suspects that Tosh, the Prince of Blades, is just a cover, and this brain worm is the savior appointed by the master.

"The great master exhausted all the virtues in the world and poured out his great thoughts when he created me." Cerebral worm giggled: "I am its most outstanding work, you know what a fart."

"Dog Emperor!"

"Stupid." Augustus was also a man of temperament.

Faraday, the captain of the royal guard, wiped the sweat from his forehead silently, wondering if he should truthfully add this sentence to the emperor's daily life.

One day, the royal brain worm scolded the dog emperor, and the emperor responded: idiot.

"How much does the ruler know about the fallen Sarnaga Emon?" Augustus sat down at the dining table, frowning as he watched the cerebrate gorge.

"Amon created the Overlord, created the psychic link and today's bug swarm, and after that is the so-called God War." The brain worm sneered at the original Zerg:

"The original Zerg have no spiritual connection, no brains and often fight among themselves, they are really pathetic."

"Amon wanted to control the original Zerg, so he created the Overlord." Augustus frowned.

"Yes, I think it should be like this. Amon wants to use the talent of the Zerg to absorb the genes of other races." The brain worm said: "The original Zerg refused the rule of Amon."

"The pursuit of freedom is the instinct of life." Augustus said.

"Government can create power." The cerebrum said: "Although the original Zerg is powerful, it is torn apart internally, so they cannot be the opponents of the little piggy."

The original Zergs were tough, and the pressure they exerted was even greater than that of the Overlord Swarm during the first all-out war. Fortunately, the current Imperial fleet is no longer what it used to be.

During the Battle of the Windsor System, the Ashen Swarm led by Primordial Zerg Chief Yagdra even crippled the Crimson Squadron.The flames spewed by that incomparably powerful gray worm are hotter than lava, hotter than the core of a star, flowing gold and stone. …

Zongzu Zuerwen is even more shocking. Its abyss-like mouth can chew up battleships.But even so, they were still driven out by the Zerg.

At this time, an officer from the combat center pushed in and sent the latest information from the front line.

Augustus looked at it, and his face was not very good-looking.

Windsor, the jewel of the Southern Territories, has fallen.This is a young imperial colony, which was established by Augustus after he ascended the throne, with the purpose of stabilizing his rule over the border.

Augustus had long expected the fall of Windsor, because the Windsor galaxy was just on the way of the original swarm, and it lacked satellite worlds and lacked strategic depth.If you send heavy troops, you will need a large number of fleets on both wings, but the problem is that the battle line is too long.

This beautiful planet is a wonderful world like Alice in Wonderland, with huge umbrella fungi like colorful forests.Green pastures close to the coast with gray and white cliffs, thick bushes full of flowers and full of strange creatures of all kinds, and warm breezes blowing beautiful sea views.

Her fall was a heavy blow even to a powerful one. It was the province's largest industrial hub, economic and cultural center, and there were many magnificent crystal ore smelters, heavy factories, and military factories. The losses were immeasurable.

Although the destruction of the planet by the original Zerg is not as complete as that of the modern Zerg, this group of gluttons will eat up all the creatures on it.

"Your Majesty, Nova reported that the original Zerg just stopped outside the palace." Faraday walked towards Augustus: "It seems to be looking for a way in, and I have ordered the Royal Guard."

"Let it in." At this moment, Queen Sarah Kerrigan was walking in.

Since she doesn't have to show up in public today, the queen is dressed as a housewife today, with a thin silk shirt over a pink and white long cotton coat, and a pair of loose slippers on her feet, as if she just came out of the kitchen.

"My duty does not allow" Faraday was about to say something.

"I said, let it in," Kerrigan said unquestioningly.

Faraday looked at Augustus, who just shrugged.

"Yes, my gracious lady," said Faraday immediately.

Kerrigan glared at the gorging cerebrate with her beautiful green eyes before leaving.The eyes are self-explanatory, no matter how rich the royal family is, they can't afford to support such a pig.

The brain worm almost choked and coughed non-stop.But this thing has no neck at all, and no idea how it manages to choke.

"I'm going out for a while," Kerrigan said.

"She's not in a good mood right now." After the queen left, the brain worm dared to speak out.

"It's a bit annoying to wake up." Augustus hummed: "She was awake when I was sleeping. There should be someone in the emperor's office within 24 hours."

"The original Zerg is going to be in bad luck." The brain worm gloated: "It can't be Kerrigan's opponent, she is by far the most powerful human being."

"Even I am no match for the Queen, so in this world, she is already invincible."

Cerebral worms rarely revealed the exclamation of Ji Shengyu and He Shengliang. …

Augustus's bedside is often placed with various military works of the Earth Age, some of which were passed over from Stukov.Among them is "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" in ancient China. Since the brain worm read this book, he immediately compared himself to the brain worm Zhongda.

"You can't beat a bulldog," said Augustus.

"But I can beat Duke." Cerebral said.

Next, Augustus picked up a roast chicken from the dining table and ate it. The brain worm also restrained himself a little, paying attention to the way he ate.These two masters who have not changed their expressions after the collapse of Mount Tai, no matter what big things happen, they should do what they should do.

Faraday had been watching the surveillance outside the palace. When he saw Kerrigan pushing away the heavily armed royal guards and beating up the primitive Zerg with his slippers, his expression and mentality changed subtly. The change.

In less than ten minutes, Kerrigan dragged the original Zerg by its tail into the palace dining room, and threw it in front of Augustus like trash.

"Tell me why you came, Primal Zerg." Augustus watched the contented Kerrigan clapping his hands and sitting next to him.

"I am Dehaka the Essence Absorber. I kill, gather essence, and absorb essence." This primitive zerg was not much taller than Kerrigan, and his bruised and swollen face was ridiculous.It does not need to learn human language, it can communicate with telepathy.

"Zulwin is leading the primordial zerg to destruction, and I must survive to evolve."

"I have been observing humans." It said to Kerrigan: "You are so outstanding, I would like to follow you to absorb the essence."

"A powerful essence, so powerful. You will help me to devour the essence of the zerg."

"The essence is change, and change is the only way to survive."

Essence, the word also means essence and essence.Cerebral worm a has already mentioned that the essence is the genetic information carried by all living things, and it is the key to the evolution and evolution of the Zerg.

Both the original Zerg and the modern Zerg need essence, the difference is that the former can directly use the essence to make themselves stronger, while the latter incorporates it into the gene pool of the swarm.

It's a pity that the cerebrum doesn't often talk about the word "essence", it cares more about French fries, Coke and fried chicken.

And this original Zerg, the three words are inseparable from the essence.

"So, you are here to join us." Augustus looked at Dehaka: "Why do you think that Zuerwen will fail, why don't you join the master, the protoss or other races."

"And the original zerg never ally themselves with others."

"Zurwin, they are like rocks, trees and hills, they will stand in the face of strong winds, they want power. But power is just a trap." Dehaka said:
"And I'm like a river, I know how to adapt to the wind."

"I can't collect the essence of the protoss, I don't like them."

"The traitor of the ethnic group! It's really contemptible." The brain worm shouted.

"I'll collect your essence now." Dehaka roared.

"Let the horse come here, I will give you three hands easily." The brain worm was so angry that he ground his teeth.

"rua!" Dehaka roared.

"Beautiful language is better than bad swordsmanship." Augustus said to Dehaka: "It seems that you and the protoss have met."

"Even if what you said is true, how can you prove your worth." He said implicitly:

"You just lost to a human woman."
