StarCraft: Tyranid Empire.

Chapter 609 Visit of Protoss
Brocas Hull is a beautiful planet full of life and green, its vast and fertile lands are covered with dense forests, azure seas and crystal veins.Everyone who comes here will be overwhelmed by its breathtaking scenery, lost in the wilderness where the long grass looms and the dark forest under the thick fog.

Since the first Tyranids set foot on the vast and fertile land of Brocas Hull, this world has belonged to the Tyranid Empire in the Koprulu Sector, and its prosperity began with the ambitious Augustus the Great. A great era of development, pioneering and colonization.

It was early in the morning when Augustus arrived in Jiggins, the largest city in Brocas Hull, and happened to witness a magnificent view while sitting on a transport ship.

As the height of the transport ship continued to decrease, the steel building and the traffic line with flashing orange lights suddenly jumped out of the canopy of the towering giant tree, and the Gothic spiers rose little by little among several cumulus clouds. Strange and splendid flocks of birds fly in great numbers over the enchanted cities of fairy tales and poetry, among the pretty streets of low-hanging and tree-root-wrapped trees.

The history of Brocas Hull as a human colony is not long, and most of the areas have maintained their original original state.The land here is rich in fertile resources, but the population is sparse. The immigrants who immigrated here did not have to compete with the local vegetation and biomes for living space.

The government of the Tyrannian Empire defines Brocas Hull as a storage world, and the habitable planet itself is also an important reserve resource.In the remote and quiet wilderness of Brocas Hull, there are many facilities such as military ports, barracks, engineering stations, and reserve warehouses, and those dangerous forests and grasslands are also training grounds for recruits of the Imperial Marine Corps.

"When you have not set foot in this vast land, the Brocas Hull Governor's Mansion has always abided by its duties, promoting the authority of the empire and the royal family among the people all the time."

When the emperor's spaceship landed at Jiggins Air Port, the Imperial Governor Harley had been waiting here with the Governor's Palace officials early on.

"Your Majesty, the people of Brocas Hull are now grateful to you for giving us this land, allowing the poor and suffering to rest in your pastures, valleys and forests. Your arrival has made the whole of Brocas Hull It's an honor for Hull."

Harry was a brown-haired man in his early thirties, dressed in a well-pressed suit with a stiff white collar, shoes polished to a shine, and meticulously groomed from top to bottom.

A former Wraith pilot for the Sons of Korhal, the young Imperial Governor served in the battles of Tarsonis and Aiur.After retiring, Harry chose to go into politics, and with the help of his old boss and comrades-in-arms, he quickly gained a firm foothold in the Augustgrad political arena.Of course, this is also inseparable from his own talent.

Harry was on Augustus' mind when deciding and planning the establishment of the Brocas Hull colony.As a colony of great strategic value, Brocas Hull must be served as the Imperial Governor by an officer with a background in the Revolutionary Army.

"Don't come here, I don't see any sign of joy in your bitter face, nor do I see a single enthusiastic native." Augustus stepped off the transport ship wearing a The gray-black coat, after getting down, he took it off and handed it to Faraday next to him.

Jiggins Air Port is a large port, and the sky above it is full of medium and large transport ships with roaring engines. These gray and red iron birds are really spectacular when they fly among the dense tree canopies.

In the center of the airport, there is a statue of the emperor cast from the steel plate of the spaceship. On the base, it is written in large gold characters: Rule this land in the name of Emperor Augustus Mengsk I.

"Did you say so, Harry?"

Harry, who was not very good-looking, could only stroke his worrisome forehead hair in embarrassment, realizing that it was a mistake for him not to allow the public to approach in order to protect the emperor's safety, but the emperor would hate it if he arranged it in advance.

Augustus Mengsk was not a temperamental emperor, but he was notoriously difficult to serve.

"I said who is the governor of Brocas? It turns out to be you." Jim Raynor, who came down from another gangway, made a relief: "Your courage to yell at the Arbitrator fleet when Al opened fire Where did you go?"

Harry is the ace of the Wraith fighter ace pilots and the crew of the Hyperion. He once single-handedly destroyed a space platform of the Tyrannian Federation.According to his achievements, let alone being a colonel now, he has naturally been personally awarded by Augustus.

"Marshal, at that time I was still a bastard kid in what others called, and I still had a lot of hair on my head." Harry immediately regained the feeling of following Augustus and Raynor to fight around the interstellar space.

"Harry, why the hell are you here?" Tychus Finley also came down, wearing a black and gray coat of the same style: "Tsk tsk tsk, you've become a high official too. "

"When will the money owed be paid?"

"?" Harry didn't remember at all. He was indeed a frivolous person in the past. He played cards in bars all the year round, but he basically never lost.

"Yes, 488 credits, as long as you remember." Tychus grinned: "I have to ask you one more thing, where are there women here?"

"You don't want to go anywhere!" Augustus said at this moment, announcing Tychus' death sentence: "Don't think about anything until you save the flowers in my captain's cabin."

"Damn, how can I save my life?" Tychus was still babbling before the royal guards were caught and taken away:

"This is the hardest thing for a strong man!"

"Harry, you know I didn't come to Brocas Hull to inspect." Augustus looked at Harry's clothes again—it was a uniform that had been washed and washed, even leather shoes. The heel is almost worn out.

The Governor of the Empire has a high salary and a lifetime stipend, but Harry has been donating his salary to the veterans organization of the Tyrannian Empire.But if you act too desireless, it is doubtful. There are already too many revolutionaries in the revolutionary army who have been corrupted by the prosperity of the core world, or they follow Augustus through life and death because they want to pursue The life of the old Commonwealth nobility.

A character like Harry who has made a name for himself in the political arena of the empire in only three or four years is naturally a person that the emperor values.Brocas Hull is a nice place, though not as rich as Tarsonis and Veritya.

Among other things, the Brocas Hull storage center stores a large number of extremely valuable ghost gold minerals. This rare mineral is a strategic resource and is truly invaluable.

If he is not afraid of death, Harry can use his power to make a lot of money in Brocas Hull. After all, the farther the colony is from Keha, the harder it is to control.The current territory of the Tyrannian Empire is not too large, and with the continuous expansion of its territory, it is difficult to guarantee that Augustus will not do evil after carefully examining and carefully considering the candidates for the governor.

But in general, according to the ghost agent's report, Harry's job is not bad.

The governor of the empire has great powers and can even mobilize the local army.Although they are not the rulers of the colonies, they are only officials appointed by the emperor.In the old Tyrann Federation era, there were examples of local governors colluding with lawless forces.

In order to prevent the governor from cultivating his own family and power in the local area, each imperial governor had to return to Keha after his term of office ended.If any governor is deemed unqualified during his term, he will be recalled by Keha before the end of his term.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Harry dared to joke with Renault Tychus, but he didn't dare to laugh in front of the emperor.Even in the era of the Revolutionary Army, the military orders of the army are like mountains, which cannot be questioned.

"The place to receive distinguished guests from the Protoss has been prepared, and it will definitely satisfy the distinguished guests who come from afar."

"Very good." Augustus didn't ask any further questions, and then asked Harry's subordinates to arrange the itinerary.

There is no need to prepare delicious food and wine to entertain the Protoss, but it must make them feel comfortable and feel that they have been respected by humans.This is a magical race that only needs to absorb the light of the stars to survive. In theory, it may be a good choice to prepare a grand sunbath for them.

"We haven't seen each other for almost four years. Why did Tassadar suddenly think of coming here to find us?" Renault patted Governor Harry on the shoulder.

"Four years may not be that long for the protoss. Moreover, Tassadar happened to pass by here." Augustus followed the imperial officials who led the way into a land vehicle, and Renault followed closely back.

"He said he had something important to discuss. ——If it wasn't for something important, Tassadar wouldn't have thought of looking for me."

Then the car started moving slowly, towards a bright silver building outside Jiggins Air Port.

The Jiggins Starport is built between several towering giant trees with luxuriant branches. These giant trees are unusually tall, and their branches can even support those light buildings that are woven like bird's nests.The atmosphere of Brocas Hull living in harmony with nature is exactly what the El Protoss loves.

"Tassadar has been really struggling lately, and the plan to recapture the Al satellite Shalock has not surprisingly gone wrong, and now I hear that Orega is making a comeback." Renault shook his head again and again in the back seat.

"That Orega is still in collusion with human forces that are not under our control, which is why Tassadar sought the help of the Tyrann Empire." Augustus said: "It's that Alan Shezar, listen Said he also captured a protoss exec."

"I've heard that too." Reynolds said, "I really don't know whether to say that the scavenger pirate is too despicable or Moyo is too unlucky."

Moyo, the executive officer of the Protoss Empire, is also an old friend of Augustus and Raynor. Since he is in trouble, Augustus also wants to intervene.After all, this band of pirates has threatened the safety of the southern border of the empire.

"These pirates have a fleet, and their strength has suddenly expanded. I suspect that this has something to do with the remnants of the Federation or the UED. All in all, we can't ignore it." Augustus said.

When Augustus arrived at the canopy house used to entertain guests, the flagship Star Shuttle of Dalam Archbishop Tassadar also arrived at Brocas Hull, and several gorgeous shuttles landed in a short time In Jiggins air port.

The first to walk in was a team of Templars led by Tassadar's disciple Executive Officer Artanis and another team of Dark Templars. These protoss warriors in simple platinum heavy armor and dark armor were neatly standing Stand on both sides of the road.

Dalam Archbishop Tassadar also walked in imposingly, wearing a shining archbishop robe, followed by Protoss Protector Zamara.

At the moment when Tassadar appeared, the light and shadow in the hall suddenly became disordered, as if the collapsed layers were stacked when the game collapsed. in the shadows.

At this scene, even Governor Harry, who thought he had experienced countless big scenes, was frightened, and only Renault next to him remained motionless.

Tassadar's sky-blue eyes shone brighter than ever, and the icy void energies escaping around him suggested that he had mastered the mysteries of the void like the Dark Templar.Tassadar is indeed the most talented of the Templars.

"Emperor Augustus Mengsk." Tassadar's words echoed with lingering psionic energy, which may represent the powerful psionic power of the Protoss.

To Augustus' confusion, Kerrigan had shown signs of the same of late.

"En Taro Adun, Brother Tassadar." Augustus immediately stood up.

"En Taro Adun, brother." Tassadar looked up.

Tassadar and the others sat down according to human etiquette. He sat opposite to Augustus, and Artanis sat with Raynor on one side.

"Artanis, hello, I haven't heard the news of your gathering troops in the Koprulu sector for a while." Renault elbowed Artanis' armpit.

"Hello, Marshal Renault, I haven't heard you mention the story of you and your good brothers for a long time." The muscles on Artanis' eyes wrinkled, but he was not angry, he just responded politely:

"In order to deal with the threat from Orrega and the swarm, the Dalam protoss is ready to fight at any time!"

"I must ask for your help, Emperor Augustus." Tassadar cut to the point: "The fleet of the human pirate Alan Shezar raided Moyo's flagship and took him away. Humans know very little."

"The Tyrann Empire will do everything in its power to help you." Augustus nodded.

It was a bit embarrassing, but Tassadar wasn't one of those arbitrators, and he wouldn't hide from Augustus just to save face.

"I heard that Alan Shezar is still under Orega." Augustus said.

"Yes, according to the information we got, it was Orega who hired these human pirates to work for him with a lot of money." Tassadar said: "Orega also gathered a worm colony with enslaved worms in Al A large army, began to attack the colonies far from Sacoolas."

"The Glacius planet we are going to is located on the border of the present-day Tyrann Empire."
