StarCraft: Tyranid Empire.

Chapter 247 The Federal Fleet Standing By

"Hubrian has arrived, are there any living people down here?"

The huge observation window in front of the bridge of the Hyperion is facing the city of Los Andares below, and the magnificent skyscrapers in the city are nothing more than slightly larger monuments on the ground in the eyes of Augustus.

Outside the observation window is the black cloud of the swarm covering the sky, and a large number of zerg flying creatures are screaming and spraying acid and corrosive spores on the Hyperion.There are so many of them that the bio-signal detection instrument on the bridge of the Hyperion can only show a period of frantically beating numbers.

At this time, the relatively primitive shield of the Hyperion has begun to weaken. From time to time, there are multiple pairs of scarlet-eyed Allosaurus with their wings folded and pierced on the thick outer armor plate. The jaw-dropping metallic twisting sound can strike terror into the heart of the best-trained human soldier.

The laser cannons, electromagnetic cannons, and machine guns on the outer deck of the battlecruiser unceasingly unleashed their firepower on the attacking Zerg, forming a dense barrage with a fork forward in front of the observation window of the bridge.

The young Marshal of the Revolutionary Army was wearing a fine and well-crafted officer's uniform, with a deep red cloak over his shoulders.This uniform was a gift from the Umoyan Council to Augustus a few months ago. It is made of pure natural materials and designed to be equivalent to the uniform of the general of the Umoyan Defense Army. The button design on the collar ensures that it will always remain straight .

Marshal Augustus was never a slovenly man.Now that he is in the position of leader, with thousands of people watching him and watching his every move, he must pay attention to his image and make sure that image is glorious and worthy of others to follow.

The bridge was under the flashing lights of red and green signal warning lights, and technical soldiers in dark gray uniforms of the Revolutionary Army were standing in front of the main computer console. Running quickly in front of the cabin door, the sound of power boots stepping on the alloy deck made a rattling sound.

Since entering the low-altitude orbit of the Cha Sara galaxy, the communication channel of the Hyperion, which was originally calm, seemed to have fallen into a depth charge.Hundreds of people shouted in the channel, some were verifying the Hyperion's identity, others were asking it to confirm the current situation in the Sara galaxy.

The Hyperion's call was immediately answered by a Federal Justice Department station named Cha Sara, and a local sheriff named Collins identified himself to Augustus.

"I am the local Sheriff Collins, thank you for responding to our rescue request." A federal official with a signature black mustache appeared on the wide main screen of the Huberian bridge.

Judge Collins hadn't changed his uniform for two weeks. The green synthetic fiber military uniform was covered with dried blood and scorched marks. He obviously didn't have the leisure and elegance to organize his appearance.In front of Augustus Mengsk, who was in uniform and tall and straight, it seemed that the other party was the federal official with great power and Collins was the rebel who fled here.

"...I know your name. Augustus Mengsk, you and your people just turned Ma Sara upside down a little over four months ago, and I was always worried that you would come to Cha Sara .” Judge Koslin stared at Augustus, as if the other party was a dazzling existence.

"I would like to reiterate my position: I am an official in the Tyrann Federation, the legitimate government system of all Tyrannians. I vow to maintain the unity of the Federation and fight to the end with any enemy who tries to destroy it." He said.

"As a human being, not as a federal justice, I will ask you to save the people of Los Andares, and the Andalus security forces and other militias will fully cooperate with you and surrender to you when everything is over."

"If, if you really are what Mike Liberty said - there is still humanity, virtue and love in the body of the devil of heaven."

In recent years, Mike Liberty, UNN's gold medal host, has always revealed some unknown truths in the program "inadvertently".For example, the Revolutionary Army never carried out a brutal massacre or city massacre in Mar Sara, and the places where civilian casualties occurred were all on the marching route of the Alpha Squadron without exception.

Different voices can always attract the attention of the federal people, especially Liberty's report is obviously closer to the truth, and those who care about political forms and have the ability to think independently are loyal fans of Liberty himself.

Many feared what would happen to Liberty. After all, even journalists who only covered corruption and money-making inside the federal government were warned by the FBI and either fired by the network or never heard from.

In fact, Liberty, who had secretly joined the Pan-Tayran Revolutionary Party, was sheltered by several allied families in the founding family of the Revolutionary Party in Tarsonis, and was now specifically reporting the scandals of these family rivals.

"Even if you don't say that, I will do that." Augustus showed a reasonable expression, and behind his broad shoulders was the bright white light from the ceiling of the Hyperion bridge. The light made his whole body look radiant.

Terrorist, rebel leader, Korha warlord and interstellar hero, there are as many reputations and slanders for him. Among those with rebellious spirit in Mar Sara and the main star of Antiga, Ao Gustus is also known as a freedom fighter, a revolutionary leader, and a rebel commander who wanders the galaxy.

In more than two years, Augustus not only led the Revolutionary Army fleet to break through the pursuit and interception of the Federal fleet several times, but also defeated more than one naval squadron.Regardless of whether Augustus is good or evil, he is a legend in the true sense of the word.

"My fleet has been sailing in the universe for several months, passing through the siege of the Federation Fleet and Zerg alien creatures just to come here to save the people of Cha Sara." Augustus said.

"My men will be lowering the transport from high orbit in no time, and getting your people ready."

"The people of Cha Sara will never forget what the Revolutionary Army has done to us." Judge Collins' tone was no longer as tough as before. Obviously, the nightmarish experience of more than a month wiped out all his arrogance with determination.

"I still want to confirm one thing with you, Marshal Augustus, that is there really not even a federal fleet in the Sara galaxy?"

"According to the information I have, there is still a naval fleet moored at the edge of the Sara galaxy." Augustus replied: "They are the Omega Squadron, and this squadron arrived in Sara three months ago." Pulling the galaxy. I think you should know about it."

"I see." Judge Collins trembled as if he had been hit by a bullet. He shook his head, as if asking to himself.

"Why would they do this?"

"We have the same doubts as you," said Augustus.

"My senior military advisers and I will immediately proceed to arrange for the first people to board the ship, and the Andares security forces will be the last to leave Cha Sara."

Communications came to an abrupt end, followed by a report from Augustus' lieutenant, Lieutenant Sarah Kerrigan.

"Radar reports show that Omega Squadron, which has been stationary at the edge of the Sara galaxy, is moving in the direction of the Cha Sara galaxy," she said.

"Are they targeting the zerg or us?"

"Any response from the direction of Omega Squadron?" Augustus asked.

"No, the fleet of Omega Squadron didn't respond to our call. If they weren't still sending signals to the outside world, we would have suspected that those were a group of unmanned ghost ships." Kerrigan shook his head and said.

"Then the answer is obvious." Augustus showed a slightly imperceptible expression of disdain. He squinted at the city of Los Andares below the observation window of the bridge, and put a hand on his waist.

"The Omega Squadron has been parked on the edge of the Sara galaxy for several months, but it just blocked the galaxy and ignored Cha Sara's rescue." He said in a sarcastic tone: "There is such a government in this century. It is absolutely unbelievable for a humanistic human society that follows benevolence and rationality to refuse to save millions of people on a planet."

"If Omega Squadron came to deal with the zerg, they wouldn't wait until we arrived." Augustus clasped his hands behind his back.

This is not the first time that the Revolutionary Army has seen the Omega Squadron. This naval squadron, known as the Skeleton of the Dead, is a force mainly composed of resocialized soldiers. They can't think and are absolutely loyal. For the Federation, this is almost A perfect army.

If it is a human army that has not been resocialized, they will at least sit back and watch the destruction of Cha Sara and have doubts about the meaning of why they are fighting, and any army that doubts the meaning of fighting will is an army that may falter.

The resocialized army would not have such concerns, even if the Tyrann Federation Supreme Command ordered them to massacre their compatriots, they would be immediately resolutely executed.

"So we have to deal with not only those buzzing alien bugs on the surface and orbit of Cha Sara, but also those 'our own people'?" Jim Raynor stood beside Augustus, waiting for the revolutionary army to attack at any time. Marshal's order.

And the demons of heaven headed by Warfield and Lon Destein were all transferred by Augustus to serve as captains or executive commanders on various battlecruisers, and the rest of the revolutionary warships still stayed in Cha Sara's ship. Fight the Zerg's air force in outer space orbit.

Fortunately, despite the large number of Yermungandr swarms that invaded the Sara galaxy this time, they are still a hive mainly based on ground combat forces. It collapses at the touch of a finger.

"Zergs are going to kill everyone in Cha Sara, and the Federation still wants to deal with us first?" Reynolds said: "Are they crazy? Is Cha Sara a planet of his Federation or our Revolutionary Army? "

"There's an old saying that goes." Augustus looked at his old friend: "If you fight against the outside world, you must first secure the inside."

"I've never heard of such a thing." Renault thought for a while and couldn't remember where this sentence came from, but he quickly ignored it because of his open-minded nature: "You read a lot, you say It's up to you."

"What should we do?" he said. "If Omega Squadron is here to deal with us, then we are likely to be caught between the Federation and the Zerg."

"That's what worries me the most. Fortunately, our purpose is to rescue Cha Sara's people." Augustus said.

"The plan is to make quick decisions," he said.

"Sarah, where are Tychus and Harnack's forces?"

"The Steelling Wolfhunter Brigade, four Red Devil Pyro regiments, and two armored divisions composed of Goliath armed robots and arc tanks have landed in the Los Andares area of ​​Cha Sara." Kerrigan, who was in a military uniform, said, flicking her fiery red single ponytail.

"The convoy of transport ships has also departed," she said. "The boy Matt Horner we brought back from Tyrador IX also landed on Cha Sara with the captain of the Cormorant."

"He's brave and upright, and it's a good test—it doesn't take long for a few hundred thousand people to drop everything but people." Augustus said, "Put everyone in In the boat, Tychus knows what to do!"

"Save the child first!"

Augustus' words were transmitted to all the warships in the Revolutionary Army fleet along the command channel of Huberian. More than [-] people were executing his orders at the same time, like a well-ordered whole.

"Connect to Warfield's Iron Justice." Augustus gave the next order without stopping.

"I'm Warfield. The Iron Justice is fighting with the Zerg. The port side of my ship is damaged, and the main engine of the Gothic is damaged." Warfield's dark and serious face appeared on the main screen of the Hyperion.

"General, I need you to hold on for a while. Start the jump engine in advance, listen to my password and be ready to jump at any time." Augustus said to Warfield.

"It's not a problem." Warfield said, "I have plenty of ways to deal with these alien monsters."

At this moment, outside the bridge of the Iron Justice, it was a completely different scene.

In the dark deep sky, the human iron fleet is fighting with a huge number of zerg flying creatures.

Even from Warfield's location, an unrivaled zerg behemoth could be seen anchored in Cha Sara's outer space orbit.It was a creature whose appearance was between that of a manta ray and a giant whale. Its size far surpassed any creature humans have encountered in the Milky Way. It was several miles long, ten times the size of a human battlecruiser. Several times, like an island of organisms floating in the universe.

It almost occupied the entire side of the observation window of the Iron Justice behind Warfield, like a black moon, and even the human battlecruisers seemed small in front of it.

From the screen on the detector display next to Warfield, it can be seen that thousands of zerg are constantly jumping out of the ugly folds and vesicles on the surface of this huge organic battleship.

"What's that?" Even though he had seen this huge creature, Lei Nuo still couldn't take his eyes off it.

"Behemoth," said Augustus, "name it after this mythical giant, and record the difference between it and its kind."

"Swarm Behemoth."
