The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge.

2123. Oreja vs. Phoenix (Part )

"Do you know where he is?" Phoenix asked.

"Laboratory No. 7," the priestess said firmly, "that's where the Kyber crystal research project is located, and a lot of Kyber crystals are stored there. If Orega is also using Kyber crystals to replace the Khaydarin crystals you mentioned, then he will only go there."

"Then let's go!" Phoenix is ​​decisive and efficient in his actions. He leaves as soon as he says he will.

However, they were stopped not long after they went. They saw some soldiers in black combat uniforms rushing towards them and quickly forming positions in small groups.

Under this purple light, the soldiers' movements seemed unusually fast.

  Da da da da da! Da da da da da! The dense sound of gunfire rang out, and the rain of bullets fired by the Valkyrie assault rifle instantly splashed over. The priestess raised her hand and pushed, and the powerful force immediately blocked all the bullets fired. However, these soldiers not only had extremely accurate shooting skills, but also had very high tactical literacy. Their bullets came from all directions, and not only that, they also covered each other, fighting and retreating. It was clear that they were trying to delay time!

"They are from the Fourth Legion!" The priestess frowned and said, "They are all the best warriors... I didn't expect that even they were controlled by Orega."

"Orega must have used some tricks, otherwise these people shouldn't be controlled so easily." Phoenix said while waving the light blade to resist the incoming firepower, "But it's too late to say anything now, charge over!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he turned into a shadow and rushed directly towards the position set up by the soldiers of the Fourth Legion. He swung the light blade so quickly that his movements could not even be seen clearly.

The Fourth Legion soldiers reacted quickly, immediately dispersing and continuing to fire. But it was still useless. The energy shield around Phoenix's body blocked all attacks. Wherever he passed, there was a bloody storm, and he quickly slaughtered dozens of soldiers.

The priestess and the judge also understood what Phoenix meant. These soldiers of the Fourth Legion had been controlled, and the only way was to kill them. Not only that, these soldiers had already joined the rebirth plan, so it didn't matter if they died.

The two of them also drew their lightsabers and rushed forward. They were originally Jedi Knights, and their fighting styles were different from that of the Protoss.

If Phoenix's battle is about extreme efficiency, then the battles of the Priestess and Judgement are like an art. Their movements are fast yet graceful, and they tend to solve problems through skills rather than just charging in with energy shields like Phoenix does.

Of course, there is no doubt that although the Priestess and the Judge are both extremely powerful beings, Phoenix's fighting style is more suitable on such a battlefield.

Led by Phoenix, who had transformed into the God of Death, the three of them fought their way out of the battlefield.

And now it doesn't matter whether to hide or not, anyway, he has been discovered, and Orega can probably judge that they have discovered his location. So what he needs now is speed!

  Before more reinforcements arrive, rush to Orega more quickly!

The three of Phoenix were all top-notch warriors, and they killed their way forward with unstoppable force.

However, this purple light was very strange, and under this light, the soldiers of the Fourth Legion seemed to be unconscious. They attacked madly without saying a word, without any emotion, and even without any sense of pain!

But now Phoenix has completely lost his killing intent, and even such a Fourth Legion soldier is unable to stop the violent Protoss battle hero.

While wielding the lightsaber, the priestess also constantly used the Force to form powerful shock waves, breaking up the formation of the Fourth Legion soldiers and creating opportunities for Phoenix.

Judgment also reduced the range of Mur's amulet, giving Orega no chance to stop her will. All those who approached Judgment suddenly struggled, and then turned into Rak Ghouls within a few seconds.

  The three of them worked together seamlessly, and even the soldiers of the Fourth Legion could not stop them!

At this time, a low roar came from the void, "Waste! Useless inferior creature!"

"Stop these useless tricks, Oreja. Just surrender!" Phoenix shouted.

"Until all of you Kal'ai Protoss die, I will always be your worst nightmare!" Orega's voice was extremely terrifying.

All I could see was the purple light around me, which was so strong that it was even difficult to distinguish other colors around me.

  Suddenly! A blade of light suddenly attacked from the side! Judgment instantly swung his sword to block it, and when he looked closely, he saw a murderous Protoss fanatic warrior standing in front of him!

This fanatic warrior is dressed in black armor and their light blades are also purple, making it difficult to distinguish them in such an environment.

Judgment thrust his sword forward, and within a few strokes, it pierced the Zealot warrior's chest. The warrior let out a hollow wail, and then turned into smoke and disappeared.

  But more fanatic warriors came rushing over from the depths of the light!

Protoss warriors are all born killing machines. The threat posed by the charge of hundreds of Protoss Berserkers is even more powerful than that of the previous Fourth Legion!

Hundreds of Rak Ghouls that had just been transformed by Judgment rushed forward howling, but they were no match for the Protoss Fanatic warriors and were immediately chopped into two pieces like melons and vegetables.

"These are illusions! They are created through powerful energy to create the effect of entities!" the priestess on the side shouted.

She was very familiar with such methods. After all, when she was still in the Jedi Order, she was the teacher of Luna Dream and Luna Fantasy, and the Fantasy sisters were best at illusions.

"To deal with such illusions, we only need to disrupt their energy transmission, and they will naturally be unable to maintain themselves." As the priestess spoke, she raised her hand and transformed her own Force into countless fine threads, which directly pierced into the bodies of those phantoms.

Sure enough, the energy was interfered with by the priestess's force, and these illusions immediately began to fade and disappear.

  Just as they were getting closer to Lab No. 7, something strange happened again! The rich purple light suddenly disappeared, and everything around them returned to its original state!

The sudden change of color dazzled the Priestess and Judge, and they had to close their eyes to adjust themselves.

The surrounding illusions also disappeared without a trace.

When the priestess opened her eyes, she saw seven figures in black cloaks who had appeared out of nowhere and were floating in the air about seven or eight meters away from them, several dozen meters away.

Under the hood of the cloak, pairs of emotionless eyes looked over here. These seven people were thin and had long limbs, especially their feet, which were disproportionately long. But if you look closely, you will find that there are two joints on their feet! One is a positive joint, and the other is a negative joint. When the two joints are fully stretched, the legs naturally look particularly long.

  There is no doubt that these seven people are all Star Spirits!

"Orega. I have always wondered that with your strength, you should not be unable to control this mothership for so long. So that's how it is. You are not in the state of the Dark Archon... You, have been divided apart." Phoenix said.

"Is this your final wail, Phoenix?" the one in the middle of the seven stars said coldly.

Unlike other Star Spirits, he did not use telepathy, but directly vibrated the air to make sounds. At the same time, his voice was extremely hollow, as if it was a whisper from the void.

"You are looking for more Kyber crystals in order to recombine into the Dark Archon form, right? Don't worry, I won't give you that chance." Phoenix said coldly. He placed the light blade in front of his eyes and took a stance.

Swish! Swish! Swish! Four of the seven star spirits in front of them drew out their light blades in unison!

One of them used a wrist blade, one used a double-headed sickle, one used a long sword, and the other used two swords.

  They are all Dark Templar!

Without any pause, the four Dark Templars and the three of Phoenix rushed over in an instant and stood together.

  Whether it was Phoenix, the priestess or the judge, they were all top-notch warriors, their combat abilities and swordsmanship were top-notch. However, the four Dark Templars were not inferior at all!

Not only that, these four people cooperated very well, covering each other, attacking together, and even cooperating with each other to create some battle traps. If Phoenix, Priestess and Judgement were not also experienced in battle, they would have been defeated.

  These four Dark Templars are actually all the strongest among the Nerazim!

"They possess the fighting skills of the Dark Templar, and they are also like us when Kara was still here, with a telepathic connection..." Phoenix said as they fought, "When Orega was at its most powerful, the seven of them were as one, as if they were one. Even in their current state, it is still the same."

After seeing Orega's current state, he also recalled some memories. Although he had already died in the battle against the ZERG when Orega caused the biggest commotion and nearly destroyed the planet Shakuras, he knew about Orega's existence before that.

Therefore, Phoenix also told the priestess some of the things he knew so that they would not suffer any loss.

When the stalemate occurred here, Orrega and the other two Dark Templar beside him were facing each other, arranged in a V-shape. They raised their hands, and the extremely powerful void psionic energy began to connect them.

As they moved, a purple energy wave was emitted from far behind them and condensed between the three of Orega.

  And the source of this purple energy wave was actually a deep purple crystal!

"It's the Kyber crystal! Orega transformed the Kyber crystal!" the priestess said loudly.

"He transformed the Kyber Crystal into a Void Crystal..." Phoenix's voice deepened. "This is an absolute taboo strictly prohibited by the Protoss! We must not let him succeed! Once he becomes a Dark Archon again through the power of the Void Crystal, Orega will be unstoppable!"

In this battle of three vs. four, Phoenix and his men were still more skilled and forced the four Dark Templars to retreat step by step.

"It's too late!" Olega's voice echoed in the air, "I'm already unstoppable!!"

Before he finished speaking, he saw that between the three Dark Templars, the void energy emitted from the void crystal had begun to gather continuously, and finally formed a vortex like a black hole!

  This vortex directly absorbed the three Dark Templars including Orrega!

Then, an extremely terrifying aura began to emanate from the vortex! This aura was like the awakening of an unimaginably powerful god that had existed for countless years. Just this kind of momentum made people tremble all over!

Purple flames began to burn, and then a pair of huge hands suddenly stretched out from the other side, tearing the space out of thin air and crawling out!

In the endless purple flames, there stood a figure over four meters tall, wearing pitch-black armor. Except for his head and hands, the rest of his body was made entirely of flames.

The power emanating from this purple flame giant even distorted the space, and the entire mothership was shaking slightly. His power was already unimaginably strong!

There is no doubt that this is a dark archon who is so powerful that it makes people despair! It is also the real body of Orega! !

"I will be invincible again!" Orega roared, "No matter which universe you are in, I will make you, the Karai Protoss, have no place to stand!! The pain you inflicted on us Nerazim, I will make you feel tenfold, a hundredfold!"

"No way!!" Phoenix shouted and rushed forward.

However, Orega simply raised his hand, and a powerful purple lightning instantly hit Phoenix, knocking him out!

The priestess and the judge rushed forward from the left and right, and slashed at Orega with their lightsabers, but the purple flame seemed to have life and blocked the attack of the lightsaber. Then Orega raised his hand again, and the purple lightning exploded instantly, blowing the two away.

"This is the hatred of the Nerazim for thousands of years!" Orega roared, and he raised his hands. Countless purple lightning bolts appeared out of thin air and struck from all directions. Even the alloy mothership structure was hit by the countless lightning bolts, leaving charred pits.

Phoenix and the other two were overwhelmed and could only retreat in the endless lightning.

However, the priestess clearly felt that Orega's attack lacked stamina. She snorted coldly, rushed forward again, and fully deployed her seventh sword technique, Vapad, and continued to slash at Orega with her violent swordsmanship.

  While Orrega was resisting her attack, the priestess suddenly shook and came in front of the other Dark Templar who had not yet merged with Orrega. While their attention was not here, she stabbed them directly with a sword!

However, the next second, the priestess's lightsaber was blocked by another lightsaber! Orega directly used his psychic power to remotely control a lightsaber and blocked her attack.

However, when she saw the lightsaber clearly, the priestess's expression became strange.

Because... this is a ferocious lightsaber with a one-meter-long hilt and a pitch-black blade! (End of this chapter)
