I, Yuhaka, am hungry!

While the Behemoth-class battlecruisers were large and powerful, they were somewhat unnecessary compared to the Minotaur-class battlecruisers, which could reduce size and cost and had a faster production speed.

Think about it carefully. The resources needed to build 5 Behemoth-class battlecruisers can be used to build 6 Minotaur-class battlecruisers. Having one more Yamato gun than the opponent means having more firepower and a better chance of victory. It seems like a great deal, right?

Moreover, the most famous weapon of battlecruisers is the "Yamato Gun," which, like the main gun of the Hyperion, is a "main gun" capable of releasing enormous energy. However, compared to the main gun of the Hyperion, the Yamato Gun of the battlecruisers in this world is comparable to the nuclear explosion produced by a small-yield nuclear bomb, something that the Hyperion cannot compare to.

Theresa looked at the two Minotaur-class battlecruisers on the radar with a headache on her face. Their current forces didn't have anything that could deal with those large air force units that were hundreds of meters long. Thinking about this, Theresa couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.

It was at this moment that Theresa suddenly felt a wet and soft touch sliding on her face. Startled, Theresa quickly covered her face and stepped back slightly. Then Theresa saw Yuhaka sticking out his little tongue and looking at her. Seeing this, Theresa knew that Yuhaka was secretly licking her face again.

Helpless, Theresa wiped the drool off her face and lectured Yuhaka not to lick people's faces indiscriminately.

As for the Minotaur-class battlecruisers, their fate depends on the availability of support.

Chapter 1107 [Odin Kidnapping Completed]

Although two Minotaur-class battlecruisers arrived, one relatively safe thing was that the Minotaur-class battlecruisers did not spot Theresa and her group. However, Tychus's Odin caught their attention. They did not fire or lock onto Odin with their cannons, but instead tried to contact him. However, they soon discovered that Odin was not responding. They guessed that Odin's communication system was malfunctioning, and they did not expect that Odin had been hijacked.

Even if they knew Odin had been kidnapped, they wouldn't dare destroy it. After all, Odin was a prototype, and a lot of money had been spent on its development. If Odin were destroyed, many people would be held responsible, since many aspire to be captains of battlecruisers.

The Empire isn't exactly united internally either. Of course, they appear united on the surface, since those who aren't have long been dealt with by Mengsk's Ghost agents.

As the battlecruisers approached Odin's firing range, Tychus controlled Odin to launch an attack on them. A barrage of Hellfire missiles hurtled towards the battlecruisers, who were caught off guard. When they finally reacted, they hastily activated their battlecruisers' energy shields. At that moment, reinforcements sent by Raynor arrived, and Viking fighters launched several EMP missiles. The electromagnetic pulse generated by the exploding EMP missiles caused the enemy battlecruisers' energy shields to overload.

Odin then launched a barrage of Hellfire missiles that struck the battlecruiser directly, causing explosions that covered the bow and damaged the Yamato cannons, rendering them temporarily unusable. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the stealthy Wraith fighters focused their fire on and destroyed the battlecruiser's bridge, rendering it "brainless." Viking fighters then followed up with a concentrated attack that destroyed the battlecruiser's propulsion system, further immobilizing it. The entire battlecruiser was essentially transformed into an aerial iron coffin. While its anti-air and anti-ground laser cannon arrays remained functional, without the bridge to lock onto targets, it was practically blind.

After dealing with the two battlecruisers, Theresa breathed a sigh of relief. Although she didn't know if the enemy had any other Minotaur-class battlecruisers, at least for now there were no Minotaur-class battlecruisers.

At this moment, Tychus also said to Reno and the others:

"Hey Jimmy, my little darling's Hellfire missiles are almost out of ammo. Could you send me some more?"

Upon hearing Tychus's words, Renault instructed Theresa to use the drones to replenish Odin's firepower. After all, while Odin's anti-aircraft firepower was strong, it was only effective against small air force units. Against large air force units like battlecruisers, it was largely ineffective. If the energy shields on the Minotaur-class battlecruisers were still intact, it would be very difficult to effectively damage them.

While the drone was loading ammunition for Odin, the Imperial military base within this weapons research and development factory also noticed something was wrong, after all, they had seen the footage of the Minotaur-class battlecruiser being destroyed.

When Theresa saw a small team approaching, she sent out a small squad of ghost agents to deal with the enemies. At the same time, Tychus, piloting Odin, began to move. Because he had not received a response from Raynor and the others, Tychus became impatient and started Odin towards an Imperial military base. Raynor looked helpless at Tychus's actions and had no choice but to send a squad of wraith fighters to cover Tychus.

Yhaka was also sent by Theresa to cover Odin, since no one was worried that Tychus, that reckless man, might ruin Odin.

.................................................. ..............................

Following Theresa's advice, Yuhaka went to the nearest military base and passed through the enemy's wall to enter the base. Because Yuhaka was invisible and could not be detected, she was able to infiltrate the human military base as if she did not exist at all. No one noticed that there was an extra beast-eared loli with an OwO face among them.

Yuhaka looked around at the lazy soldiers and searched for his own target. After Theresa told him that he was to destroy a few buildings, Yuhaka took out his tablet and looked at what Theresa wanted him to do with the bombs.

After realizing his objective, Yuhaka secretly installed remote-controlled explosives inside the buildings. Once the explosives were installed, Yuhaka climbed onto a wall and pressed a switch, causing an explosion that erupted throughout the military base. The Imperial soldiers inside the base were caught off guard and immediately panicked.

Odin's appearance also made the soldiers in the military base realize that something was wrong. After all, they had not received any news that Odin was coming to their location. Combined with the fact that the previous explosion had destroyed the command center, missile tower, and other important facilities, they realized that this was a planned attack.

Several hours later, Odin razed all the military bases located at the weapons research center in Valhalla to the ground. This powerful war machine indeed possessed unimaginable destructive power. To be honest, even Raynor did not expect that Odin would have a stockpile of weapons such as nuclear bombs. It was truly unbelievable. Although it took a lot of time, they at least destroyed all the Imperial military bases here, so at least they no longer had to worry about the enemy reporting the attack to Korhal.

After the SCVs repair Odin, Raynor plans to disguise the Rangers as Imperial soldiers escorting Odin's forces, in order to infiltrate Korhal and seize the UNN's broadcasting station.

Most importantly, they found a lot of weapon and vehicle blueprints here, which made Swann very happy, and Renault was also happy, now he didn't lack any weapon and equipment blueprints.

Chapter 1108 [Horner: Thinking of a plant's name]

Near Korhal, in a secluded spot, Renault and the others watched the news broadcast on the projection screen with calm expressions. None of the Imperial soldiers noticed anything unusual, nor did they realize that the Rangers had infiltrated Korhal. All of this was thanks to Horner's operation.

Raynor and his group also "acquired" a command center here as a forward base. While Tychus, sitting in Odin's cockpit, launched a surprise attack to disrupt the enemy's formation, Raynor and his team began to set up the base. If Tychus could make full use of this surprise attack, it might provide them with a lot of convenience in their subsequent operation to capture the broadcasting station.

However, they will have very little time to act, and if the Empire realizes what's happening, they will definitely do everything in their power to thwart their plans.

After checking the time, Renault gave Tychus the order:

"Alright, Tychus, let's get started."

Upon hearing Raynor's command, Tychus, sitting in Odin's cockpit, grinned with a mischievous smile, as if he had some wicked idea in mind, and said:

"That's exactly what I've been waiting for, brother."

Soon, the projection screen showed the sounds of Odin's cannons and the screams of Imperial soldiers. Seeing this, Renault ordered the others to begin their operation.

.................................................. ......................

Located in a suburban area of ​​UNN, this is the base where Theresa and her group are located. While Tychus destroys the military bases near the broadcast tower, Theresa and her group are also speeding up the deployment of base facilities and defenses.

A few minutes later, Tychus returned in triumph after destroying a number of Imperial military facilities. If it weren't for the battered armor plates on Odin's body, it would have been a pretty good victory.

When Theresa saw Odin, who was badly beaten, she ordered the SCV to repair him. Fortunately, Odin's vital parts were not damaged, otherwise Theresa would not have known what to say.

“Mr. Matt, Mr. Tychus has returned, piloting Odin to destroy Imperial facilities.”

Hearing Theresa's words, Horner nodded and said:

"Yes, I see it here. The current task is to have Odin lead the charge and capture all the broadcast towers located near the UNN broadcast station."

After hearing Horner's words, Theresa asked with some confusion:

"Wait, Mr. Matt, are we going to take over all the broadcast towers? Can't one broadcast tower send that message to the entire sector?"

Horner nodded and explained regarding Theresa's question:

“Yes, Miss Theresa, each broadcast tower is responsible for a different area, so it would be best to take them all over. But the good news is that I have access to the UNN network. As long as our soldiers are stationed next to the UNN broadcast towers, we can transmit messages to various planets.”

Hearing Horner's words, Theresa breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing that no complicated procedures were needed, Theresa then asked, as if remembering something:

"By the way, if we let Youyou approach that broadcasting tower alone invisibly, won't the enemy be caught off guard?"

Horner also looked thoughtful when asked about Theresa's question. Regarding Ehohaka's invisibility, Stetman also presented his research results. To be honest, Ehohaka's invisibility ability, which can block most instrument detection methods, is indeed a very rare existence in this star sector.

Even Stetman had never seen such an ability as Yuhaka before, and Yuhaka's invisibility ability gave Stetman a lot of inspiration.

"If that's the case, it can indeed provide us with a lot of convenience."

Upon hearing Horner's words, Theresa patted Yuhaka, who was standing to the side, urging her to hurry up and get ready. Yuhaka, meanwhile, was munching on snacks and looking at Theresa with a puzzled expression.

"What are you doing O~O?"

Seeing Theresa's puzzled expression, Yuhaka asked her what she was thinking. Theresa then told Yuhaka her idea, and Yuhaka was also completely bewildered when he heard it.

No need to fight, you can just stand invisibly next to that tower-like building.

Is this some kind of hide-and-seek game that Youyou is playing by herself?

Yuhaka was very confused by this.

A while later, at a broadcast tower somewhere, Yuhaka, sitting at the top of the tower, was munching on potato chips and looking down at the Imperial soldiers standing guard on the ground. The Imperial soldiers were obviously unaware that there was a little girl munching on snacks watching them from above.

Seeing this, Horner covered his face, speechless. He only knew that if Yhaka's invisibility was so useful, what was the point of spending so many resources to send the Rangers into Korkha's territory...?

Renault, standing nearby, couldn't help but laugh. After Theresa and her group finished transmitting the message at the three broadcast towers, the UNN special report about Mengsk could now be received throughout the Empire.

Enraged residents of the Terran Empire began launching armed protests throughout the empire, and Mengsk appeared quite furious during a recent interview.

Renault looked delighted with Mengsk's frantic state.

This broadcast caught Mengsk off guard; he hadn't expected the media, which he had used as a weapon, to turn around and attack him.

For the Rangers, this operation brought a victory far exceeding previous results.

Meanwhile, the Korhal operation also led Reynolds and his team to a strange classified document. It only mentioned that there was a biological weapons laboratory on the orbital platform above Castana, but for some reason, they planned to secretly eliminate the people who had worked there, including the researchers, which puzzled Reynolds greatly.

If it's just for the sake of secrecy, is it necessary to kill valuable researchers?

No matter how you look at it, Renault felt that this method of secrecy was too much. Even imprisoning people would be better than this, but killing researchers was a different story.

This made Renault feel that something was wrong, which made him decide to investigate what Mengsk was up to.

Chapter 1109 [Investigation in the Laboratory (Part 1)]

After their next mission took them to a secret bio-lab of the Empire, the Hyperion prepared to warp towards their destination. Although the mission was a bit rushed, Raynor and his team needed to get to the bio-lab before the Empire could react and investigate the situation there. Otherwise, if the Empire got there first, they might take away anything they were hiding, and all their efforts would be in vain.

After warping, the Hyperion arrived at the asteroid belt near Castana's planet. There, it found the bio-lab. Raynor, looking at the secret research facility the Empire had established there, asked with a puzzled expression:

"What is this secret bio-lab for?"

Regarding Renault's question, Horner addressed the others present:

"The surface of this planet is used to store beryllium, but it's definitely a front for the Imperial biological laboratory."

Renault nodded and said:

"I hope so. We didn't come all this way just for a few tons of beryllium."

Observing the stars from the side, looking at the biochemical laboratory in front of them, they also said curiously:

"Speaking of which, didn't those classified documents say what this place was for?"

Horner shook his head when asked about stargazing, but he did find security codes for some facilities in the files, which they could use to hack into other people's systems, making things convenient for them.

Renault then stretched his arms and said:

"Alright, since we're already here, it would be a shame not to go down and take a look."

Theresa's lips twitched slightly as she saw Renault's eager expression and said:

"Mr. Renault, are you planning to personally lead the team down to investigate?"

Regarding Theresa's question, Renault nodded and said:

"Yes, I should stretch my legs a bit. Tychus had a bit of a fight in Korhal before, so I should stretch my legs a bit so he won't say I'm old."

Hearing Renault's words, Theresa broke out in a cold sweat. However, if Renault was going to go in person, Theresa suggested that she should go with him. After all, this bio-lab was too suspicious, and there might be something dangerous inside.

When Yhaka heard Theresa talk about the bio-lab, he was also curious about what it was for. Yhaka had a feeling that there was something inside waiting for him to find. Could it be that there was something delicious inside?

"Youyou wants to go to OwO too!"

Upon hearing Yhaka's words, Renault agreed, believing that with Yhaka present, a direct assault on the secret laboratory would be much easier.

......................................................................

After preparations, Renault and his group arrived at the entrance to the track platform aboard Renault's transport plane. After they disembarked, Horner sent a message to Renault and his team, reminding them:

"Sir, some parts of this experimental facility are equipped with anti-scan armor, and our signal is constantly fluctuating. Please be extremely careful."

Upon hearing Horner's words, Renault jokingly replied:

"Don't you know my name is Jim Cautious?"

"I thought he was a Casanova."

Horner retaliated with a joke of his own against Renault's, which made Renault's lips droop. Theresa, standing nearby, chuckled. Renault then coughed slightly and said:

"Alright, enough joking around, guys. Get your spirits up, check your weapons and equipment, we're about to storm in."

Upon hearing Reynolds' words, the Marines present prepared to check their weapons and ammunition. After confirming that everything was in order, Reynolds led the group to the door to install the explosives for breaching the door.
