The giant corporations that started from Night City

Chapter 388: Lure the enemy deep into our territory! The ultimate weapon, the Holy Mother Ship! Turn the tide!
Sigma star sector, world ship battlefield.

Here, under the psychic storm summoned by the high-level templar, the Tal'darim's troop formation was thrown into chaos, and then they were continuously attacked by the psychic warriors who rushed in.

This put the Tal'darim troops, who were already confused and dazed, in a desperate situation of being surrounded and annihilated.

In addition to the ordinary psychic warriors charging in the front and the templars commanding the wind and rain in the rear, there was also a group of elite templars armed with battle axes rushing forward.

Obviously, unlike high-level Templars, these elite Templars are positioned for close combat, and the battle axes in their hands dance like metal whirlwinds.

On the chaotic battlefield, this group of Templars kept knocking back the Tal'darim warriors, and bloody tissue fragments were splattered all over the battlefield.

Faced with such a fierce attack from the Templar, the remaining Tal'darim garrison had no choice but to retreat urgently, desperately fleeing back to the tearing field that had not yet completely failed.

At least before the force field generator in this area was completely destroyed, Daram's Protoss troops did not dare to rush in.

However, the Darram fleet led by Lugia captured cities and strongholds along the way, and the second tearing force field line had already been attacked by them.

As long as this generator is captured, Daram's troops will be able to advance a large area, and then these Tal'darim will have nowhere to escape.

Seeing that the war on the front line seemed to be developing in a positive direction, Marshal Terrence nodded repeatedly: "I underestimated these Darram Protoss, although their tactics are a bit crude."

“But the effect is still quite good.”

A cat, black or white, is a good cat as long as it can catch mice.

At first, Terrence thought that Lugia's all-out attack tactic would easily lead to heavy losses, but the results proved the opposite.

Daram's troops' offensive was almost devastating!

“They do have some skills.”

Paul also nodded. The facts were before him, and he had to admit the outstanding combat capability of the Durham Fleet. But soon Paul changed the subject:
"It's just that it's not time to be happy yet."

Judging from the current situation, the troops led by Lugia are indeed more capable than the Tal'darim left here by Naion.

But this is their home court after all, and they still don't know what cards Naion has hidden.

Kolokia basically used all his means at once.

Not long after, with the collapse of the second tearing force field generator, the Darram troops on the ground advanced forward a large area again.

This time, the Immortal, a mobile chariot like a steel fortress, was at the forefront of the team, using its twin-barreled phase-disruptor cannon to clear the way for the Templars.

The antimatter bombs fired by the Immortals can easily tear huge holes in various heavy armored machines.

Even the Colossus siege vehicles that the Tal'darim relied on had to temporarily take shelter.

Not to mention the Vanguard Infantry Combat Mech, which is almost the same as the Immortal. Although the war machinery of both sides is similar, the shells they use are not exactly the same.

So even though they are the same weapons and equipment, the power they display is very different.

In addition, the whereabouts of the Tal'darim's Blood Hunters were also detected by the mechanical eyeballs floating in the air.

These large eyeballs that rely on psychic energy fluctuations for observation can be called the all-seeing eyes on the battlefield. Even the Dark Templar who are good at stealth cannot escape their detection.

Not to mention a blood hunter.

Soon, under the fierce attack of the Templar, the Tal'darim garrison suffered defeats and heavy casualties.

The situation on the battlefield here seemed to be just as Lugia had expected before. The Tal'darim were just a group of fragile rats that could not withstand a single blow.

After several rounds of successful capture, Lugia became more resolute in his opinion of the Tal'darim. He proudly gave orders to the fleet:

"Don't stop, keep moving forward and completely wipe out these Protoss heretics!"

At this moment, the executive officer Lugia seemed to have seen the moment when the army returned victoriously and his heroic deeds became famous in Kara.

But Tanis, who had seen the military capabilities of the Tal'darim, sensed something was wrong. The last time it fought against Naion's troops, it was not so smooth.

There must be some fraud!

"Executive officer, our fleet's shield energy has been almost depleted. We should stop now and wait until the shield energy is replenished before launching an attack."

Tanis reminded Lugia in time. Fortunately, Lugia was not a brainless and arrogant fool. It was not dazzled by the victory in front of it.

After confirming that the energy shields of the warships needed to be restored urgently, it calmed down, nodded and said, "Okay, then wait a while and then we'll wipe out these scums!"

However, not long after Lugia's order was passed down, Naion himself appeared near the third tearing force field generator.

Not only that, it also escorted a group of captured Templars to the front of the battle, as if showing off the power of the Tal'darim to Lugia.

Sure enough, Naion's actions quickly attracted the attention of everyone present. The Protoss warriors of Daram looked at Naion with anger.

Soon, Naion escorted these Templars whose psychic powers were restricted to the platform, and loudly declared to the Darram fleet in the distance:

"Anyone who offends our Tal'darim will be killed no matter how far away they are! This is what will happen to you next—!"

As Naion's voice fell, the Blood Hunter raised his guillotine towards the Templar captives in front of him and killed them all with a single blow.

This scene immediately ignited the anger of all the Darram Protoss warriors, including the executor Lugia, who roared angrily, wishing he could eat the beast Naion alive on the spot.

Seeing this, Paul was finally able to feel relieved.

Naion's actions were completely a way to his own death. Now the Tal'darim and Darram have become an irreconcilable feud, and there is no way the two sides will ever be reconciled.

Only by completely exterminating the other party can the hatred in my heart be relieved!
"Kill these traitors, leave no one alive!"

Before the fleet's shield field was fully charged, Executive Officer Lugia could no longer hold back and directly ordered an attack on the third tearing force field.

It was obvious that this was a deliberate tactic used by Naion to lure the enemy, and it executed the Daram captives in this situation just to provoke Lugia's fleet.

Naion could see that the Darram fleet, which had captured two defensive lines in succession, had shown signs of decline and was now at the end of its strength.

If we lure the enemy to attack again, it will be the other side that will suffer heavy casualties!

At this moment, Lugia was not completely overwhelmed by anger. It planned to use this bonus of anger to allow its troops to capture another force field generator in one go.

The benefit of doing this is that it can boost your own morale and undermine the enemy's morale.

Even if there was an ambush, Lugia believed that he could deal with the opponent. As long as they could kill Naion by force, the battle would be over.

In the coordinated confrontation between the two coaches, the psychic warriors on both sides started fighting again.

Seeing that Darram's fleet was indeed rushing towards him, Naion not only did not show the slightest panic, but instead gave the order with full confidence:

"Let the Mother of God take the field. It's time to teach these bastards a lesson!"

The Mothership can be regarded as the ultimate battleship weapon in the Protoss civilization, and its power is roughly equivalent to the Forerunner flagship in the "Halo" universe - the Mantle of the Advent.

Both have the ability to tear apart time and space, distort space, become invisible, and release huge psychic storms.

Even the world's largest company only has three super battleships like this.

In Darram's Golden Fleet, the core flagship is the Motherland, but this time the Motherland was not present in the troops led by Lugia.

Soon, the Durham fleet forced its way to the third tearing force field generator, regardless of the fact that the shield energy had not yet been fully restored.

Just as they tried to replicate their previous tactical coordination and destroy the generator, a giant ship that blocked out the sky suddenly loomed over the fleet.

When they looked up, they saw a mobile city nearly five kilometers long, pressing down on their heads like a giant. It was the ultimate mothership of the Tal'darim.

It is also Naion’s greatest confidence.

"This is impossible! How could the Tal'darim own the Mothership? This shouldn't be possible."

Lugia was filled with astonishment. He couldn't understand where Naion got this battleship from.

You know, the Mothership is a great creation passed down from the golden age of the Protoss. Today's Protoss can no longer create such an ultimate weapon.

Therefore, the Mother of Heaven can be said to be a super-killing weapon that can be counted on one hand.

Even in Durham's Golden Fleet, there is only one Mother Ship, the Purification.

Because a core battleship like the Mother of Heaven's level can be used to form an ace space formation force around it.

It can be said that the Protoss tribe that owns the Mother Ship is, at the very least, a powerful vassal-level force capable of ruling a region.

But now, the rebels who were regarded as inferior by Lugia suddenly took out such a powerful Motherland. This is like the unruly people in remote areas suddenly taking out nuclear weapons to deal with the regular army.

But they haven’t brought the Purification with them on this expedition!

At this time, Naion had quickly arrived at the command room of the Mother Mother through the warp prism. He sat in the captain's seat, glancing at all living beings like an emperor.

The appearance of the Mother of Heaven meant that they had regained the initiative. The previous setbacks were just a means to consume the Durham fleet.

"What a bunch of idiots! Do you really think your Kara Way can lead you to the end of evolution? You are just a bunch of fools sitting together in a daze."

"I'll give you a ride ahead of time now!" Naion sneered at the Darram troops below.

Ever since the Protoss ended the Aeon War and ushered in the era of great expansion of the universe, the Tal'darim, as one of the tribes, were the first to take the route of "plunder and development".

When all the tribes are like hunters, carefully searching for ancient relics in the dark cosmic forest and developing their own civilization.

The Tal'darim were the first to think of developing and strengthening themselves by robbing other tribes of their resources and population.

It's like my neighbor stores grain and I store guns, my neighbor is my granary.

Most of the Protoss who lost contact were captured by the Tal'darim, rather than encountering cosmic disasters such as black holes or neutron stars.

During this process, the Tal'darim also successfully got a Motherland for free. After countless modifications, the Motherland became more destructive and became the core flagship of the Tal'darim!

Seeing the Mother Ship in front of him, which could appear silently above his own fleet, Lokia immediately realized that the opponent's warship was a real thing, not a tool to bully others.

After all, the only warship that can achieve this level of jump is the Mother Mother with its extremely outstanding performance.

"All warships immediately release interceptors and retreat in an orderly manner!"

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

Lugia tried his best to control his inner fear and tension, and ordered all the warships to retreat. The only thing he could do now was to use unmanned interceptors to stop the Motherland.

Try to give the large force the opportunity to exit the tearing force field as much as possible. This will at least preserve the main force of the fleet.

If they were forced to stay in this tearing force field and fight the Tal'darim, they would definitely die, and there would be no place to bury their bodies!

Immediately, a large number of unmanned interceptors were released from various Protoss warships, and the interceptors attacked Naion's Mother Ship recklessly.

Dayou acted as if he was ready to die together with the other party.

Looking at the overwhelming number of interceptors in front of him, Naion just snorted and laughed: "Activate the Galaxy Vortex and confiscate all these scrap metals!"

"Yes!"

Just as the steel torrent composed of unmanned interceptors was about to collide with the Tal'darim's Mothership, a strange distorted force field suddenly appeared in the space and time ahead.

At the same time, all the interceptors flew uncontrollably towards the center of the force field.

That is one of the skills of the Mother Ship, Galaxy Vortex!
The so-called galactic vortex creates a powerful gravitational vortex in the target area, sucking all units within the range into the central vortex.

From a visual perspective, it was like a small black hole appeared out of thin air, sucking the interceptor in, and even distorting the light around it.

At first, these unmanned interceptors wanted to try to break free, but the powerful gravitational field was like a pair of powerful palms of Tathagata, firmly pressing down these nimble monkeys.

The unmanned interceptors behind opened fire at the vortex in front of them, but their plasma beams were also twisted and sucked in, without causing any ripples.

Faced with such a terrifying galactic vortex, numbers lost all meaning at this moment.

No matter how many drones there are, they cannot fill this gravitational vortex that distorts space and time.

Without the protection of the interceptors, Durham's battleship can only face the Mother Mother overhead!
Seeing that the unmanned interceptors had been almost captured, the Mother Mother also launched a counterattack. This time it was its turn to open the eyes of the Darram Protoss.

Instantly, a scarlet high-energy ray was projected from the Mother Mother and hit a Durham aircraft carrier directly.

Without any pause, the ray easily penetrated the thick armor shell of the aircraft carrier, as smooth and unobstructed as a high-temperature knife cutting solidified butter.

Even the destroyer behind the aircraft carrier was affected, cut in half and exploded on the spot.

With just one strike, an aircraft carrier of the Daram fleet was scrapped, and the broken battleship crashed into the Xel'Naga world ship.

However, this death blow, like the coming of the god of death, did not stop. More and more warships fell down and crashed into the surface of the world ship.

This is the cruelty of interstellar war. Whenever there is a gap in the technological weapons between the two sides, the result of the battle will be obvious.

There are no fancy space tactics to use the weak to defeat the strong, only ruthless stepping on the head and being crushed and beaten!
Lugia saw everything that was happening and felt pain in his heart, but this was not the time to lose his temper.

It issued a series of emergency retreat orders, hoping to save more warships and find a way to leave this dangerous area.

The power of the Tal'darim Mother's rays is indeed very strong, but correspondingly, releasing the rays multiple times also requires more charging time, which gives the Darram fleet a glimmer of hope.

But before they could be happy for too long, more Tal'darim fleets gathered around, including colossi that had been magically modified by the Tal'darim, which they called "Wrathwalkers".

The appearance of the Punisher is not much different from that of the Colossus, but the weapon has changed from thermal rays to charged explosive bombs, which gives them the ability to destroy warships.

Its power is comparable to that of the Yamato cannon.

When the explosive bomb emitting dazzling light hit another Protoss aircraft carrier, the shield energy had been reduced to a critical value, causing the projectile to burn through the battleship's armor plate almost unhindered.

The high temperature instantly ignited a flame, turning the interior of the battleship into a mess. The combat capability of the aircraft carrier was immediately greatly reduced, and it was almost in a state of collapse.

Immediately afterwards, the Tal'darim launched a more fierce attack. Under the continuous bombardment of explosive bombs, the aircraft carrier was finally unable to withstand the dense artillery fire, and it shattered and crashed onto the world ship.

The other two Void Rays suffered the same fate, crashing and collapsing under the attacks of the Sky Punisher one after another. The rest of the frigates and destroyers were useless and had no practical use at all.

On the entire space battlefield, only Lugia's flagship remained.

At this moment, the Protoss mothership had just released a small number of unmanned interceptors to counterattack and continued to retreat.

But these interceptors were completely useless in front of the Sky Punisher. With just one sweep, they basically cleared all the drones.

There is also a part of the Darram troops who are still staying in place to replenish shield energy and cannot directly enter the tearing field to help provide cover.

They can only sit and wait anxiously.

Before the energy of the shield force field is replenished, they can only watch from the outside. Otherwise, even if they rush in to save people, they will end up being disintegrated into molecules by the tearing field.

Just as these Sky Punisher devices were preparing to focus their fire on the last Durham battleship, several dazzling beams of light suddenly came from afar.

Before the Tal'darim warriors could react, the Skywraith at the front was suddenly shot in the head, like a piece of tofu dregs shattered by a bullet.

That was the Moonlight Spear attack of the war of the Universal Corporation. After seeing Naion's trump card clearly, it was the turn of the Universal Corporation to appear!

"Their galactic vortex force field is not much different from our gravitational field. We must keep a safe distance and try to gain a favorable position first."

Through the careful observation just now, Terrence has roughly figured out the capabilities and details of the Tal'darim Mothership.

Since this Mother Ship is only capable of this, it is now their turn to turn the tide!
"The Sixth Expeditionary Corps of the Universal Corporation, all troops are dispatched——!"

Following Terrence's order, the huge corporate space fleet suddenly released its cloaking force field and appeared out of thin air at the other end of the Xel'Naga world ship.

This scene shocked all the Protoss warriors present.

Especially Lugia, it had no idea when the fleet of the world giant arrived at the battlefield.

If it had not seen it with its own eyes, it would have thought that the giant enterprise's warship was still halfway on the way.

The local Tal'darim troops looked up and saw three giant god-like warships standing at one end of the space with great momentum, looking down on all living beings present.

The Sojourner Dreadnought, the Moon of War, the Long Night, no matter which one, is several times larger than their Motherland!
The largest of them, the War Moon megastructure, has a huge body with a diameter of 200 kilometers.

"Do these warships really exist...!"

Looking at the three huge warships, as well as the countless densely packed cruisers and frigates, Lugia recalled that when he landed on the planet Bysher before, he did not seem to observe the human fleet carefully.

It was not until now that it saw clearly how magnificent the giant enterprise's warships were.

For a moment, Lugia's memory flashed back to the first time he saw the Spear of Adun.

The ultimate doomsday ark, which is nearly one hundred kilometers long, is the ceiling-class battleship in its mind.

But it is unbelievable that the human camp can build such huge warships.

The technological starting points of humans and Protoss are so different that it should be impossible for them to have such a warship, let alone a warship of five kilometers in length, even a warship of two kilometers in length.

It is also a top luxury flagship in the human world!

Lugia couldn't figure out the reason, but this was a normal result for a giant company.

After all, these technological weapons were all obtained for free.

Unlike Lugia who was stunned by the shock, Naion, who had seen the power of the giant enterprise battleship before, began to panic.

As early as the time on the planet Baysher, it was the fleet of the Universal Corporation that forcibly destroyed the galaxy orbital defense system that Naion had painstakingly built.

Eventually, the Tal'darim were forced to relocate to this abandoned Xel'Naga worldship.

In that space battle, Naion almost lost all of his few Void Rays.

Seeing this powerful fleet of warships appear here again, Naion suddenly recalled his unbearable experience.

In the face of the giant company's powerful warships, even this Motherland ship cannot bring it much sense of security.
