Baishir, on the other side.

The back of the planet where the Keha immigrants landed is also a beautiful world full of greenery and vitality. The low-altitude basins, plains, and steep mountains are covered with lush green plants, and the mountains and rivers are full of flowers.

The hundreds of terrazine altars of the Taldarin protoss are located in the green jungle and the flowers of angiosperms. They are simple, solemn and magnificent, just like the Pantheon of Rome or ancient shrines.The majestic pillars inscribed with mysterious characters, symbols and murals support the inner arched dome carved with exquisite patterns, and the pattern similar to the pattern of shells extends from the outer wall of the dome, as if this itself is a supernatural workmanship that can be achieved by nature rather than human beings.

Cylindrical columns more than 50 feet (15 meters) high are built into the monolithic stone wall, almost blending in with each other.There are no doors on the walls, only a few high and wide hexagonal windows, through which the sun's rays can shine directly into the niches on the inner wall, illuminating the exquisite stone carvings depicting the gods.The purple smoke from the terrazine gas spring gushes out from the square gap in the altar dome and rises in curls.

These historic buildings may not have been built in Baishir, and should not even come from the hands of Tal'darin or even the race of protoss, but more like creations from long ago.

A vast plain covered by sparse jungle and low shrubs is particularly conspicuous in the luxuriant jungle. Dozens of diazine altars are distributed on a narrow rectangular land. From the air, it can be seen that these altars form a difficult Recognized regular hexagons.Edmund Duke, the former commander of the Federation Navy Alpha Squadron who was ordered to deal with the Taldarin protoss, was very willing to call this place "Handy Anderson's bald head" to mock the editor-in-chief and capital injection shareholder of the UNN Cosmos News Network Impressive baldness.

"I can't help but wonder if those pointy heads have no brains, or haven't evolved brains at all. This place is as prominent as a dry, bare earth clearing in the jungle. Any good commander should Immediately discern that there is a Tadarim base hidden here."

Duke stood on a solid hill with a high-speed telescope that could identify heat source signals. His bright white Commander CMC power armor reflected the shining light in the scorching sun at noon.Soldiers from Alpha Squadron in neat three columns were passing by Duke's left, and on the right were armored personnel carriers full of soldiers and Vulture vehicles that occasionally passed the personnel carriers at high speed.

The only respectable aspect of the distasteful former Confederate commander's distasteful personality, from a prominent founding family, is that he despises any alien beings, even if they display great technology strength.

Whether in strategy or tactics, Duke dared to despise any enemy he despised.

"But I don't think the Marshal's Command told you that the invisible city of Tal'darin is hidden here, so you probably just screamed while hammering your chest." At this time, Tychus was wearing a huge red power armor Finley and Jim Raynor in blue armor come from behind Duke.

"If I hadn't been told that our venerable General Edmund Duke was here, I'd have thought he'd been killed in Tal'darim's pyramid." Tychus had always looked down upon Duke.

"You'll see soon." Duke didn't even look at Tychus, focusing on what was ahead.

"I paid a lot of money for a cigar imported from Gianta Port." Tychus walked to Duke's side, and took out a thick cigar from the bag hanging on the power armor.

"Are you kidding me? Gianda hot port is synonymous with pirated, cheap and low-quality products. Anyone who is a Tarsonian knows that it is a place where the scumbags go." Duke slapped Tai'an in disgust. Case's outstretched hand seemed to slap away a fly.

"Don't pull it down." For a fraction of a second, Tychus felt some embarrassment, but it disappeared quickly.

"I said, General Duke, aren't you afraid that Tadarim's assassins will find you standing here in a conspicuous place?" While Raynor was speaking, Tychus threw all the cigars out of Duke's sight. In the grass.

Duke is actually a life-saving man. He is surrounded by Alpha Squadron elite guard soldiers carrying anti-stealth equipment and tall Goliath armed robots.Reynolds just teased Duke as usual, after all, looking at each other has not been very pleasing to the eye, and Tychus often speaks ill of Duke, and it is common to fight.

"If the assassin of Tadarim dares to come, I can catch him with one hand." Duke put down his binoculars and looked at Renault, after all, the latter had a higher rank than him.

Although in Duke's view, the military ranks of this group of rebels are simply a joke, there are so many young people under the age of 20 who serve as school officers and generals, because their qualifications are the highest.And Augustus can promote his generals at will, and the gold content of these military ranks is not as high as that of a staff officer of the Navy Command.

"It's enough to say it, but don't take it seriously. These aliens are full of muscles and can easily split the turtle shell on your body." Tychus laughed.

"What are you laughing at? You are the dog beside Augustus, a villain, a scum of the army, a wanted criminal." Duke was furious.

"I've always been a bad guy~ each other, you snake is no better." Tychus was happy to see Duke pissed off, this was one of the few pleasures he had besides eating, drinking, and gambling.

"Ah, what's the fun, let me listen to it too." At this time, Hanak Hanke walked up to the hill where Duke and the others were. The thick firebat power armor on his body was painted with the demon of heaven in the flame Logo with wolf head of family Mengsk.

Perhaps it was because Hanak had been dealing with flames all year round. As soon as he appeared, everyone felt that the surrounding temperature seemed to rise a lot, as if the fiery red armor was exuding high temperature like a furnace.

When Duke heard Harnack's iconic joyful voice, he became very angry. This red-haired kid is a thorn in the door. Even if he has become a colonel of the Revolutionary Army, he still finds people to fight every day. , but therefore far less people hate Harnack than Duke.Everyone knew that Marshal Augustus liked Harnack because the latter valued friendship and friendship above all else.

If one can gain Harnack's trust and friendship, one can gain a lifelong friend.

"You'd better keep your mouth shut, Colonel Hank." Duke was giving orders to the advancing Alpha Squadron on his command channel, yelling at the bewildered men at the top of his voice.

"You already know where to fire, aim at those Tadarim temples and order the artillery to fire immediately, don't save ammunition, and smash those Tadarin's pointed heads!"
