I, Yuhaka, am hungry!

Seeing the Imperial forces surrounded by the Zerg, Raynor also wanted to rescue them. After all, only by uniting as one could they build a powerful army; otherwise, they would not be able to defeat Kerrigan.

After hearing Raynor's words, Theresa nodded in agreement. In the current situation, only unity could defeat the Zerg swarm. Otherwise, the Rangers alone would not be enough to satisfy the Zerg.

"Mr. Renault, what do you plan to do?"

Standing at just over 1.4 meters tall, Theresa crossed her arms and looked up at Renault, who was over two meters tall and clad in power armor, asking him this question. Renault, after checking the holographic tactical map, replied:

"Given the current situation, we can try to rescue the airdropped troops that land near our positions. If they are too far away, they may be overwhelmed by the Zerg before our troops even get there."

Renault then contacted Horner and said:

"Matt, keep an eye out for any drop pods landing near us. Report to us as soon as you spot them. If we can find them before the Zerg swarm, we still have a chance to break out of their encirclement."

Upon hearing Renault's order, Horner immediately discovered an airdrop pod that could potentially land near Renault's position at any moment.

"Sir, an airdrop pod is about to land near you. Please be on high alert."

After hearing Horner's words, Renault also checked the location where the parachute had landed and said:

"Alright, it seems we need to hurry and find the swarm before we get there."

Then Renault looked at Yhaka and the others and said:

"Youyou, Theresa, I need you to take a small team to rescue that Imperial force."

Yuu and Yuexia nodded in understanding upon hearing Renault's words. Then, Yuhaka grabbed Yuexia's hand and ran off. Watching their departing figures, Renault inexplicably felt a pang of sympathy, like children going on a school trip. This made him break out in a cold sweat. Tychus, noticing Renault's odd expression, nudged his arm and said:

"Hey Jimmy, what are you thinking about?"

Reno, regaining his senses, shook his head and said:

"Hmm? No, it's nothing. More important than that is defending this place. It might be the only position that can temporarily defend against the swarm's attack."

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

On Yhaka and Moonlit's side, the troops who had assembled under Raynor's orders breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing Yhaka and her group arrive. After all, they were bound to encounter Zerg while running out of their defensive positions to rescue people. With Yhaka there, things were much easier for them. Everyone had witnessed Yhaka's feats of punching the Empire, trampling the Zerg swarms, and even biting the Protoss. With such a little monster in their ranks, they at least didn't have to worry about what to do if they encountered Ultralisks along the way.

"Boss Youyou, where should we go to rescue them?"

Hearing the Marines' words, Yuhaka thought for a moment and then showed them a tactical map projected onto a small computer on his arm. The Ranger soldier leading the team, after seeing the location projected by Yuhaka, spoke up:

"That location is not far from our position, so at least we don't have to worry about running too far."

After saying this, the ranger soldier in charge of leading the team also called on his troops to prepare to rescue the people. Seeing this, Yuexia asked Yuhaka, who was standing nearby:

"Hey, Youyou, why do they call you Boss Youyou?"

Upon hearing Yuexia's question, Yuhaka wore an "OwO ???" expression, rested his chin on his finger, thought for a few seconds, and then said:

"Because Youyou is very smart and very strong OwO?"

"Uh, this..."

After hearing Yuhaka's words, Yuexia looked at him with an expression of not knowing what to say. While Yuhaka was indeed very strong—after all, Yuexia didn't think that strength alone was enough to make the marines call him "boss"—as for Yuhaka saying he was smart... well, seeing Yuhaka's "OwO" expression, Yuexia figured he was definitely smart...

As for why the Ranger soldiers call Yhaka "Boss Yhaka," the reason is that a daring Ranger once challenged Yhaka to an arm-wrestling match, only to be knocked out by Yhaka in one move. This attracted many others to try arm-wrestling with Yhaka, and like the first person, they were all knocked out by Yhaka. Later, some tried with both hands, multiple people, and even those wearing power armor, but Yhaka defeated them all. After that, many people were convinced of Yhaka's strength.

After Yhaka and her group set off, Yhaka took the lead, while Moonlit followed beside her, wielding a large axe to cleave the charging Zerglings in two. Yhaka, wielding the Demonbane in one hand and the Baradion, which resembled a hand cannon, in the other, charged towards their target location. Along the way, they either hacked or shot down any Zerglings they encountered. Upon reaching their destination, Yhaka and her group saw Imperial Marines hiding in drop pods as cover, also defending against the Zerg swarm's attacks.

After confirming that the target had not been eliminated by the Zerg swarm, Yhaka led his team to eliminate the Zerg surrounding the target and rescue the Imperial soldiers. The Imperial soldiers, upon seeing the Ranger insignia on the Marines, looked surprised and said:

"Renault's Rangers?! It's a pleasure to meet you! If it weren't for you, we might be food for the bugs."

The Imperial soldiers were genuinely grateful for the Rangers' thanks. After all, under those circumstances, without rescue, their chances of survival would have been slim. Fortunately, the timely arrival of Yuhaka and her team eliminated the Zerg that surrounded them; otherwise, they would have been devoured by the Zerg.

However, the Imperial soldiers were also very curious as to why there were two children in the Ranger rescue team. Could it be that the Rangers were short-handed and had sent child laborers to the battlefield?

Chapter 1124 [Saving Private Warfield]

After Yuhaka and her team escorted the Imperial troops back to their position, the Imperial soldiers couldn't help but show expressions of gratitude upon seeing a defensive position. After all, without cover, marines wouldn't survive long against the Zerg swarm's attack. Seeing the siege tanks and bunkers, the Imperial soldiers couldn't help but shed tears of gratitude; at least they were safe for the time being.

However, the Imperial troops were also curious and asked Renault if he knew where their General Warfield was. After they were airdropped, they lost contact with Warfield and his men. Renault was surprised to hear this news. Warfield had lost contact with his men, which did not sound like a good thing. However, Renault ordered the Imperial soldiers to follow his instructions and promised to help them find their General Warfield.

Upon hearing that Raynor would help them find General Warfield, the Imperial soldiers nodded in understanding and said they would obey Raynor's orders.

At that moment, Kerrigan's voice, like a broadcast, resounded throughout Raynor's position, saying:

“I really appreciate your way of boosting morale, Jim. Please bring them to me no matter what, like lambs to the slaughter.”

Raynor also shouted the same words that Kerrigan used to demoralize the human army to his men:

"Don't listen to her nonsense! Focus! We can definitely break through together!"

Encouraged by Raynor's words, the morale of the people present was greatly boosted, and they continued to fight against the Zerg swarm attack. In the following operations, Yuhaka and her team rescued a number of Imperial troops, some of whom even brought Imperial military facilities with them as they flew down from orbit. Now Raynor's defensive position was getting bigger and bigger, and they basically didn't have to worry about small-scale Zerg swarm attacks. But it was at this moment that Raynor and his team received a distress signal from General Warfield.

"Emergency distress call! This is General Warfield, my ship is heavily damaged, heavily damaged!"

Upon hearing General Warfield's distress signal, Raynor and his team located him. They then saw a massive behemoth-class battlecruiser crashing in an open area, not far from a Zerg hive.

"...Tsk...This is General Warfield...Tsk...I'm calling for help from all Imperial forces within range...Tsk...We're in a critical situation! We're holding on and need reinforcements...Tsk...Hurry!"

Upon hearing General Warfield's plea for help, Reynolds and his men tried to contact him, but unfortunately, for some unknown reason, they were unable to reach him.

"Damn it, we can't get in touch with them at all!"

Theresa, who was standing nearby, quickly comforted Renault, saying:

"Don't worry, Mr. Reynolds, most of General Warfield's men are still alive. They've set up a temporary defense, and the swarm won't be able to break through it for the time being."

Upon hearing Theresa's words, Renault also saw through the projection screen a large number of people emerging from the crashed battlecruiser and beginning to form a defensive line. For some reason, Renault felt a sense of familiarity upon seeing this scene.

But now is not the time to worry about these things. Raynor can see from the map that there is a Zerg hatchery near where Warfield and his group are. To be honest, Raynor doesn't know whether to say they are lucky or unlucky. Of all the bad luck, they just happened to fall near that godforsaken place.

Fortunately, the location where General Warfield and his crew crashed had a favorable geographical environment, allowing them to avoid some of the Zerg's attack routes and prevent them from being surrounded by the Zerg. This was provided that Kerrigan did not use the tunnel bugs; otherwise, General Warfield and his crew would soon have been surrounded by the Zerg swarm.

"No matter what, we must rescue Warfield and his soldiers and try to fight our way over to their side."

Tychus, who was standing to the side, then spoke up:

"But the prerequisite is that we need to gather enough troops to break through the defenses of that large swarm of insects."

Renault nodded in agreement with Tychus's suggestion, as this was the only way they could break through, provided that General Warfield could hold out until then.

Regardless, Reno and his group first gathered the surrounding Imperial forces. At the same time, Reno and his group also had Horner and his men airdrop mercenaries over. The mercenaries were better equipped, and most of them had extensive combat experience. Among them were a number of former members of the Earth Expeditionary Force, making them even stronger than the Imperial forces.

Because Raynor could provide accurate airdrop locations, his troops were able to reach their defensive positions smoothly. After assembling his forces, Raynor also sent Tychus and Theresa to rescue other Imperial troops, since it was impossible for only one Imperial airborne force to be waiting for rescue.

After spending about half an hour, Raynor's forces assembled and began their attack on the Zerg hive. The number of Zerg swarms at the hive far exceeded the number of Raynor's forces, but even so, Raynor and his men continued their assault. Although Raynor and his men had considered rescuing General Warfield and his men from the air, the Zerg swarm's anti-aircraft firepower was far greater than that of any they had encountered before. After all, the hive was equipped with bile jets that resembled large anti-aircraft structures, and even the energy shields of the Empire's new Minotaur-class battlecruisers could not withstand them for long.

On the front lines, Renault looked at the tunnel worms and bile ejectors on the tactical map and said with a somewhat troubled expression:

"This is troublesome. If we don't eliminate those tunnel worms and bile ejectors, the enemy will keep sending reinforcements to support them. At the same time, our battlecruisers will be unable to get close to the swarm's position."

Then Renault pointed to the bile jet on the tactical map and looked at Yhaka standing to the side, asking:

"Youyou, do you have a way to deal with that bile jet? Even if you can't destroy it, can you at least prevent it from launching an attack for a while?"

Upon hearing Renault's words, Yhaka followed the direction Renault pointed and saw the Bile Jet on the tactical map. The Bile Jet that Yhaka saw was a hundred meters tall and looked like a giant tower. However, Yhaka nodded to indicate that there was no problem with such an enemy.

Chapter 1125 [Fleabug: I'll just lick it—]

Upon hearing about Renault's mission, Yhaka also went to carry it out. Although Renault wanted to send a few Ghost Agents with Yhaka, unfortunately, given the current situation, sending Ghost Agents would only hinder Yhaka's progress.

Yhaka's stealth ability is far superior to others; even detection units may not be able to detect Yhaka's presence, unlike the others.

After Yhaka was ready, it set off. Yhaka circled around the front line and headed towards the rear of the Nydus Worm.

Yuhaka looked at the tunnel worms that were spewing out a bunch of alien insects from their mouths with a puzzled expression. He obviously didn't know where the tunnel worms were coming from. However, Yuhaka didn't care too much. After all, Yuhaka had urgent things to do, so he didn't bother to observe those things.

After flying over the aerial carpet, Yuhaka also saw the huge biostructure [Bile Jet] erected on the carpet.

This massive Zerg defensive structure has the ability to easily launch a large mass of concentrated corrosive bile over extremely long distances, dealing devastating damage to large aerial units, provided, of course, that the target does not have an energy shield.

Looking at the towering bile jet in front of him, Yuhaka was a little troubled. After all, the target was quite large. Yuhaka couldn't help but wonder how to destroy this behemoth. Using a light cannon seemed to be no problem, because the bile jet's body had a thin membrane tissue, which was the organ used to store corrosive bile. Attacking that area might even trigger a steam explosion.

After Yhwaka came up with a solution, he began to implement it. Standing not far from the bile jet, Yhwaka raised his holy sword high and gathered terrifying fire elemental energy. At the same time, the eyebugs in the hive noticed that the temperature in a certain place in the hive had increased sharply, which made the eyebugs a little panicked and search for what the problem was.

Unfortunately, Yuhaka's invisibility prevented them from seeing him. Although they could sense a powerful force rapidly increasing, they couldn't understand the situation or make any judgments.

Meanwhile, Kerrigan also received a report from the Eyebugs. Although Kerrigan didn't know why the temperature in one place had suddenly increased, she wasn't as troubled as the Eyebugs. Instead, she immediately dispatched a group of Hydralisks and Minotaurs to forcibly attack the area. Kerrigan guessed that there might be an unseen figure among the Eyebugs gathering some kind of energy. In any case, forcibly attacking it might interrupt the gathering of energy.

Unfortunately, Kerrigan's reaction was a bit slow.

Yhaka, having gathered his fire elemental energy, released it. The scorching flames enveloped Yhaka like a towering structure, instantly igniting the surrounding creep and Zerg units. Yhaka then raised a 40-meter-long sword formed from flames and slashed it down at the Bile Jet, instantly engulfing the Xenomorph in its path and burning it to ashes.

The bile jet, struck by the 40-meter-long fire elemental blade, was instantly ignited, causing it to shake violently. Having done this, Yhaka nimbly slipped into the imaginary space. The next second, the bile jet exploded, the force of the blast affecting everything around it. A highly corrosive liquid also splashed out, causing even greater damage and destroying the spore reptiles scattered around, thus reducing the insect hive's anti-air defenses.

Seeing the explosion in the distance, Raynor and his team knew that Yhaka had successfully destroyed the bile ejector. Raynor then called on the Imperial battlecruisers they had rescued earlier to launch an attack on the Zerg swarm's ground forces and rush through the breach.

Meanwhile, Raynor and his team also launched their attack. With the battlecruisers drawing enemy air fire, they could also provide cover fire. At the same time, other air units were about to follow the battlecruisers in their attack, especially the Banshee fighters, which were perfect for dealing with the dense swarms of Zerg on the ground.

Meanwhile, Kerrigan wore a serious expression as she watched the flames engulf the Zerg swarm and hive. She could clearly feel the power unleashed by the fire elementals, a power that no human could possibly possess. If it were the Protoss, Kerrigan thought it was possible, but she didn't believe the Protoss could recover from the losses of the Brood War so quickly. If they had, she estimated the Protoss would immediately send a Protoss fleet to help the Empire deal with her.

But if that's the case, then what exactly caused all of this? Kerrigan was alarmed by this.

While Kerrigan was on guard against the unknown, Yhaka pulled out an oversized bomb and threw it into the mouth of the tunnel bug, then ran away like a child lighting a firecracker.

Inside the burrowing worm, the bomb was flashing with light and displaying a countdown. Several zebras nearby looked at the suddenly appearing thing with curious expressions. One of the zebras even stuck out its tongue and licked the bomb to taste it. The next second, with a loud bang, a powerful explosion blew the entire burrowing worm's head into the air. At the same time, the same explosions also erupted from the mouths of the other burrowing worms.

After the Nydus Worm was destroyed by Yhaka, the Zerg reinforcements were also cut off. Seeing this, Raynor and his team quickly ordered their troops to take this opportunity to break through the Zerg defenses. If they didn't take this chance to break through and reunite with General Warfield and his team, the Nydus Worms would probably reappear.

Renault then contacted Yuhaka and said:

"Youyou, could you please go to General Warfield's place first? We can't break through here for the time being. Go ahead and inform them so they can prepare. We'll catch up soon."

After hearing Raynor's words, Yhaka nodded to show that he understood, and then flew into the air with a whoosh towards Warfield. Before long, Yhaka saw Warfield and his team fighting against the Zerg.

Chapter 1126 [Thunder Beast, let's go! .jpg]

On the defensive line where Warfield and his men were located north of the Zerg hive, Warfield was leading his soldiers in repelling the Zerg swarm's attack. As the sound of explosions approached in the distance, Warfield addressed his men:

"Reinforcements are on their way. Hold the line, brothers!"

Hearing General Warfield's encouragement, the Marines defending the Zerg attack in the defensive line were also greatly encouraged, and their speed of injecting stimulants increased. Oh, I misunderstood, it was the speed of pulling the trigger that increased.

At that moment, a Thunder Beast suddenly burst out of the ground and appeared a few dozen meters away from the defensive line. The sudden appearance of the Thunder Beast attracted the attention of the Imperial soldiers, as well as General Warfield.

Upon seeing the Thunder Beast, Warfield ordered the siege tank group at the rear to attack it. As the siege tanks rotated their turrets to aim at the Thunder Beast, they opened fire with a bang. After several shells flew out, the shells from several siege tanks hit the Thunder Beast. The continuous shelling made the Thunder Beast dizzy, and a lot of its armor was blown off. In some of the wounds, the muscle tissue inside could be seen.

After Warfield saw the siege tanks severely damage the Thunder Beast, he ordered the siege tanks to launch a second salvo to destroy the Thunder Beast. Just then, the roar of the alien dragon came from the sky. Hearing the alien dragon's shriek, Warfield quickly located the alien dragon flying over from the sky.

"Dragon attack! Cover your positions! Anti-aircraft teams, shoot down those dragons!"

Upon noticing the Xenomorphs, Warfield immediately ordered the Goliath Armored Robots to take them down. The Xenomorphs are highly agile aerial units among the Zerg. These fast-flying, regenerative Zerg swarms have always been a nightmare for human light ground units. Their insect blades can easily deal with densely populated areas, and these things can easily cause psychological trauma.

Upon hearing Warfield's words, the Goliath Armored Robot, which was originally attacking the Zerg ground forces, launched its rocket pods at the Xenomorphs. Anti-aircraft missiles also flew towards the Xenomorphs locked onto by radar. The Xenomorphs noticed the anti-aircraft missiles heading towards them and immediately dispersed. The few that were locked onto by the anti-aircraft missiles rushed towards the Goliath Armored Robot.

As the Zerg launched its insect blades, they slammed into the cockpit of the Goliath Armored Robot with a whoosh. The powerful explosion knocked the Goliath Armored Robot to the ground. Warfield was a little dumbfounded when he saw this, but he quickly remembered that the Zerg had two different types of insect blades: one was a catapult-launched insect blade that could deal with multiple light ground units, and the other was an explosive insect blade used to deal with heavy armor.
