StarCraft: Tyranid Empire

Chapter 451 The Tyrannian Savior
Augustus met Zebedia Tella in the office of the mayor of the city hall in New Babylon. He was the son of Constantine and Annabella, and the heir appointed to the Tara family, the founding family of Tarsonis.

Zebedia has a young and calm face, understands social etiquette, behaves elegantly, speaks modestly and politely, and is very measured. He is a typical Tarsonian nobleman.

Augustus was content with that, because he didn't want to waste his time dealing with fools at this critical juncture.

"Sit down, please." Sarah Kerrigan, wearing the Revolutionary Army grass-gray army uniform, held a wooden clipboard under her arm. Stu's side.

After they walked in, two guards in dark gray uniforms outside the door immediately closed the door.The soldiers with two slanting riflemen holding their spears left a deep impression on the guests, and the golden wolf logo and silver wheat ears on their shoulder straps showed that they were the personal guards of Augustus.

"Hello, Marshal Augustus Mengsk. I am your loyal admirer, and I grew up listening to your legendary stories in the Koprulu sector." Zebedia said in front of Augustus Sit down on a row of chairs.

At that time, Zebedia was wearing a half-open dark blue pea coat and a federal army-style beret with a narrow brim.His light-shaven hair was brushed down over his gaunt face, and his eyes were bright even though he was tired.

"I'm glad to hear you say that." Augustus could hardly remember whether he had seen Zebedia in Tarsonis, or if they had met much earlier.But it is clear that Zebedia has grown up very fast.

Four years ago, Augustus had never heard of Zebedia Terra in Tarsonis, and now he has become the object of all girls' hearts.In contrast, Augustus actually had a much deeper impression of his sister Nova.

Zebedia is a completely realistic version of Prince Tarsonis, except for being shorter, there is nothing to regret.

The butler of Zebedia is a shrewd and capable person, the kind of servant favored by the great nobles.

"Zebe, I feel very sorry for what happened to your father. Once upon a time, Constantine and I were still as good as that." The friendship between Augustus and Constantine was so good that Constantine would say: Look Madam is not bad, if you are her lover, I will be more at ease.

Although the two of them have barely met each other except for remote communication, Constantine is so optimistic about Augustus' talent and potential that he is willing to go to the Strongly support the Revolutionary Army.

The friendship of Augustus and Constantine was complicated, in which interests far outweighed others.But on the whole, the two acknowledged each other as friends.

"My father died at the hands of the hybrid monster released by the people on Earth. I hope he didn't experience inhuman torture and unbearable pain before that." Zebedia said sadly.

"He was the best father I've ever met and always wanted to raise us into good-natured and strong-willed people. Moral guidance was also an important lesson in Tyra's family."

"I have forever lost a true friend, a distinguished revolutionary who passed away before dawn." Augustus was silent for a while, then asked Zebedia:
"Is your mother all right? Any news from her?"

If Annabella Terra also encounters an accident in this war, then it is almost a certainty that Zebedia will become the next Patriarch of Terra.His eldest sister, Clara, had not been raised as an heir, and Nova was too young.

"...I just contacted my mother a few hours ago. When the earthlings attacked, she was away from the factory in the city, so she escaped unharmed." Zebedia hesitated for a moment and didn't ask further.

Since she was very young, Zebedia followed her mother to high society banquets, and appeared in public with a prominent status, so naturally she would not be so flustered in front of Augustus that she said nothing.

"Now she has left Tarsonis in a shuttle and is heading to the family-owned mining planet."

"What a blessing in misfortune," said Augustus:

"The battle situation in Tarsonis is much more intense than I expected. I originally thought that Tarsonis' outer space orbital defense facilities could stop the people on Earth for at least 72 hours."

"Their attack was as fast as lightning." Zebedia recalled the scene he saw when he fled Tarsonis: "The rail guns that fell from the sky directly destroyed the orbital cannons and fortresses on the ground, and the federal army was only on Earth. Fleeing in the face of an unstoppable offensive."

"Facing the monster weapons cultivated by the Earthlings, it is only a matter of time before Tarsonis' ground troops are defeated."

"Hmm." Augustus clasped his hands and fingers on the table together: "The hybrids are not something ordinary human troops can deal with. With them participating in the battle, it is reasonable for the Federation to lose."

Looking at it now, Tarsonis's federal defenders are undoubtedly at a disadvantage, and once the hybrid appears on the frontal battlefield, it can instill fear in the human army facing it, which is also a serious blow to morale.

If the main force of the Tyrann Federation is defeated in Tarsonis, then the former rebel army will become the light of Tyrannian humanity instead.

"Marshal Augustus. I came here because I hope you can save the people there from the invaders of Earth and the monsters that ravage Tarsonis." Zebedia said after a pause.

"Even if you don't say that, the Marshal will do that." Kerrigan stared sharply at Zebedia, who was sitting upright. She had actually been more concerned about the relationship between Augustus and Constantine's wife since just now.To be honest, the noble lady of Tarsonis is probably like Augustus-a young and handsome country nobleman, full of drive and recklessness.

Constantine and Annabelle were a political marriage in the true sense, with no feelings at all and no concern for whether the other party remained faithful in the marriage.

"Sarah is right." Augustus smiled, as if he had completely forgotten who almost blew up Tarsonis four years ago.

"As a Tyrannic human being, how can we watch our home planet being poisoned by the people on Earth," he said.

"You can't sit idly by!"

In any case, Augustus will not sit back and watch the people on Earth take control of the Tyrann Federation.Of course, Augustus would not rashly intervene when the fierce battle between the Federation and the UED was in full swing. He had been waiting for an appropriate time.

"At that time, you will be the savior of the people of Tarsonis." Zebedia couldn't help but show the expression of "as expected of a man I value". He stubbornly believed that Augustus was a real revolutionary.

"And I will continue where my father left off," he said. "The Terra family's support for the Revolutionary Army will only grow."

This is a wise choice. If Augustus wins, the status and assets of the Terra family can still be preserved, but the people on Earth will definitely cleanse Tarsonis, and any nobles are not worth mentioning in front of them.

"A hero is a boy, Zebedia, you will definitely become a man as good as your father." Augustus nodded and said, "You can meet with Pompeii, my treasurer, who was in charge of dealing with Constance. Ding's liaison work."

If Augustus just overthrew the Tyrannian Federation and established a new regime, he would only be regarded as a successful revolutionist. The Tarsonians might accept Augustus' rule, but they would never welcome him with joy.

But if Augustus had defeated and expelled the Earthlings before then, he would have become a national hero of the Tyranids.

"I seem to have seen the scene when that day comes." Augustus stood up and shook hands with Zebedia, putting his hands on his shoulders and walking out of the mayor's office.

"Next, you can go to the New Babylon suburban villa arranged by my people to rest. It used to belong to a corrupt federal official. There are guards guarding it, and it is quiet enough that no one disturbs you." He said to Zebedia said.

"I won't be staying in Clutas for long. If I'm not around, you can contact the Army General Staff in Clutas."

"Thank you for your help, Marshal," Zebedia said to Augustus.

"Do I have to stay there until the war? But I want to join the army, and I want to kill the monster that ate my father."

At this time, Augustus was already standing in the corridor outside the mayor's office.Next to it is a window facing New Babylon City Center Park, a beautiful park with lush lawns and wide boulevards leading to magnificent skyscraper buildings.

"I wouldn't advise a kid as young as you to join the army, let alone go to the front line." Augustus put his hands on Zebediya's shoulders, looking him in the eye.

"Your minds are not mature enough, and your view of the world is not clear enough. I have seen many people who regret it as soon as they step on the battlefield. War is never a beautiful thing." He said.

"The army is prepared for such people. They are loyal patriots who volunteer to sacrifice themselves to achieve the collective. They should have a sense of responsibility that many people cannot understand, and they are willing to sacrifice for a country and a nation."

"And that's who I am," Zebedia said gravely.

"After all, you are Constantine's son. I can't put you in the combat unit. Even considering your training time as a recruit, it's impossible." Augustus had a headache.

"Anyway, don't you need to deal with the affairs of the Terra family?"

"Most of the factories of the Tyra family are in Tarsonis, and the family affairs are also business matters. In this regard, my mother is still dealing with it." Zebedia said: "After she decided to put all the affairs I won’t take over completely before it’s all handed over to me.”

"This makes it difficult for me." Augustus thought about it seriously.

"Please allow me to refuse."

"Let me participate in the training of the boot camp first, Marshal, the iron discipline of the army is also a kind of temper for me." Zebedia knew that Augustus would refuse.

"Perhaps, by the time I become a qualified soldier of the Revolutionary Army, the war will already be over."

Zebedia wants to emulate Augustus’s deeds when he joined the army when he was young. It sounds exciting and fascinating to become a famous devil of heaven after joining the army within one year.

Although Zebedia had no idea how much Augustus wanted to strangle the stunned young man in the past.

"This may not be a bad thing." Kerrigan whispered behind Augustus: "If the heir of a federal founding family joins the revolutionary army, it just shows how deeply our revolution is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people."

"Okay." Augustus felt that Kerrigan's words made sense, so he pushed the boat along.

"Don't expect my recruit trainer to open the back door for you. The Krusas are brave and tough. Getting along with Krusas recruits is not something to expect. They have always disliked outsiders, especially Tarsonis. "

"Don't worry about me, I have used all kinds of firearms since I was very young, and I have never missed combat courses and physical training." Zebedia said that he was very good at bowing and horses since he was a child. Will take it seriously.

"You will suffer sooner or later." Augustus smiled, thinking that Zebedia would definitely learn a lesson in the boot camp: "I'll send you off."

Augustus put his arms around Zebedia as close as a brother.

The New Babylon City Hall is a beautiful white Roman column building. Its classic design highlights the local culture and aesthetics of Clusas, which is essentially different from the gorgeous Tarsonis architecture.

The city hall was full of Revolutionary Army soldiers on duty. For them, defending Augustus was an incomparably sacred duty.

"Can you still get in touch with the other Founders? They must have left Tarsonis too," Augustus said to Zebedia as they walked down the stairs together.

"I can't get in touch." Zebedia shook his head and replied, "Tera's family has made many enemies in Tarsonis, and each family is also divided. There is no way to get in touch for the time being."

"I got the news with certainty that almost all the founding families have been attacked." Augustus said without the slightest regret.

"I don't know how many of them survived the war."

"I know that many families sent their heirs to other planets before the war, and they should not have been affected. As long as Tarsonis is still under the control of the federal government, they can return and take over the family again." Zebedia Say.

"Really?" There seemed to be no light in Augustus' eyes.

While speaking, Augustus and Zebedia had already walked downstairs of the city hall building.To Augustus' surprise, a blond woman in a blue dress ran towards him immediately, but was stopped by the guards in time.

"Miss Tyra!" Augustus could never forget people, but he really couldn't remember the name of this woman.

But Augustus remembered the little girl named Nova Terra not far from her.The girl wore a short golden ponytail and was standing under a tree in black sports trousers and a long-sleeved shirt, with an indifference on her face.

"It's been a long time." He said politely.

"Augustus! My dear!" Clara tried in vain to separate two Revolutionary Army soldiers in power armor, regardless of Augustus' bewildered expression.

"long time no see!"
