StarCraft: Tyranid Empire.

Chapter 660 Encirclement and Anti-Encirclement
"Starboard alert, Leviathan found at [-] degrees ahead!"

"Twenty degrees left! Broadside salvo!"

"We're hit! The midship deck is pierced!"

"Here on the Tyrador Knight, we have been hit hard! Hard hit!"

"Abandon ship! Abandon ship! We're going to crash!"

"Remove to the m7a area, all guns fire forward, break through!"

"Successor, charge the main gun and fire! Two Leviathans? Then hit me with both!"

"Empty this area, leave no one alive!"

The orders and shouts of the captains of the Tyrann Empire Fleet in the Tiberus galaxy came and went one after another.Bright gunfire pierced the darkness, emitting dazzling bright orange and red lights, and hundreds of cannons roared at the same time, brighter than white stars.

The war has already entered a truly brutal and intense state, and the mighty army of insect swarms spread all over the entire galaxy, so dark that it even obscured the brilliance of the stars.Fierce battles were everywhere, and the massive wreckage of Imperial warships and Zerg biomass battleships littered the galaxy.

"Another swarm fleet. They're trying to defeat us head-on, and these bastards don't pay attention to us." On the bridge of the Iron Justice, Vice Admiral Garr stared at us with an ugly face. Looking at the holographic display, his face was illuminated by jumping numbers and the occasional flash of a bright light from the porthole.

"The Overlord has lost his patience and is ready to swallow us all in one gulp." Admiral Horace Warfield scanned the shocking numbers on the screen indicating the number of Zergs:
"Our flanks are being exposed to the Skydome Nest and the Kukulkan Nest. Order all fleets to immediately assemble to the flagship Iron Justice. Shrink the battle line and establish a defense line!"

Just at this moment, as a flash of light suddenly illuminated the bridge, a bright pillar of fire rose from the huge hull of the Hesper, and the shock wave of the ammunition explosion killed countless people clinging to the battleship armor. The zerg on board also dismembered the entire hull.

Immediately, the Hesper was plunged into a terrible sea of ​​flames. The scorching flames swept through every part of the hull and every cabin, burning everything along the way to ashes.After the last violent explosion, the shattered wreckage of the battleship finally stopped moving, as if it was someone who had finally swallowed their last breath.

The dozens of lifeboats flying out of the Hesper were quickly destroyed one by one by the surrounding mutants. In the blink of an eye, thousands of Imperial Navy soldiers were wiped out and fell into the purgatory of iron and fire.

Another majestic Minotaur-class battlecruiser was dismembered by the strong acid spewed by many corrupt flying insects right under the eyes of Warfield and Garr. And out of the pipeline.Countless different dragons are pouring into the hull from the holes eroded by acid, and from time to time, some hulls fall off from the main body.

Several other Imperial battlecruisers desperately wanted to get close to their friendly ships, but they were not safe from the zerg around them.Anyone can see that the imperial fleet, which has been fighting hard for many days, is already exhausted, and new Zerg troops arrive every moment.

The situation was very unfavorable for Warfield and his fleet, but this was expected.The generals of the fleet knew the fate they were about to face. In order to firmly attract the zerg of the Tiberus system, all of them were ready to sacrifice for the empire.

"Our task is to stick to Tiberus before the combined fleet encircles and wipes out the swarm." Warfield's expression was as tough as steel: "No matter what the price is."

Prince Arcturus Mengsk was right in saying that they put one hand in the lion's mouth so that with the other hand they could take a sharp ax and open its head. ladle.

The so-called strong men cut off their wrists, but that's all.

A few hours ago, Horace Warfield's Tyrannian Empire fleet was surrounded by many large insect nests in the Tiberus galaxy, and it might be swallowed by the endless stream of insect swarms at any time.

And suddenly, as a large number of human and protoss battleships suddenly appeared, tens of billions or more Zerg troops were rushed to the three parties of the Tyrann Empire, the Dharam Protoss and the Purifier fleet. Stuck in the Tiberus galaxy, facing the dilemma of being besieged.

The Overmind and the Lords of the Swarm soon realized that the talented Tyranid Emperor was only using Tiberus's huge Tyranid fleet as bait, and they were nothing but fish that took the bait.

Not only did the Dalam Protoss of Sacoolas come out in full force, overwhelming the territory, but the appearance of another Protoss fleet completely disrupted their deployment.If things go wrong, most of the main force of the swarm will probably be lost in Tiberus.

All of a sudden, the insect swarm that was about to be trapped in the Tiberus galaxy was rampaging like an enraged swarm of bees, intending to concentrate their forces to defeat any of the three-party coalition forces before more enemy fleets arrived. Worse turned the tide of battle before.

The Warfield Fleet, which was in the sea of ​​insects, was the first to bear the brunt and had to face the anger of the swarm.

It turns out that the Overlord just besieged the Warfield fleet of the Tyrannian Empire in the Tiberus galaxy and did not attack it, in order to attract more sources of the imperial fleet so that they could destroy them one by one.

At the moment, there is no longer any need for the angry master to keep the Warfield fleet.

Like a series of heavy punches, large numbers of swarm fleets entered the Tiberus galaxy, and they wanted to deal with the Tyranid Empire fleet inside it quickly and then turn to deal with the enemies outside.

Fortunately, Warfield's fleet is not alone now.

When as many as a dozen large hives rushed towards the Tiberus galaxy, even if Warfield's fleet survived the first round of offensive, it would be completely damaged.However, a golden fleet led by Artanis arrived at this time.

This was the first batch of fleets to set off from Sacoolas, and they traveled night and day, and their destination was Tiberus at the beginning.

When Warfield's fleet shrinking front was retreating steadily, the Durham mothership El Shield opened a hyperspace channel directly to the Tiberus galaxy. A large number of protoss aircraft carriers, Phoenix fighters, void glow ships and storms The warship rode directly in the face of the Leviathan hive.

The moment the layers of golden and blue ship shadows appeared, the lords of the swarms inside the Tiberus galaxy were even taken aback.

Artanis's flagship, the Aiur Shield, shone like a supernova under the dazzling energy dome, and a series of blue flashes passed through a Leviathan that was badly damaged by multiple Gorgon battlecruisers from the inside. splash out.The terrifying desolate behemoth was then torn apart, and the layers of ribs under the skin were exposed to the hot and shining prism rays of the void glow ship, dismembered and disemboweled by hundreds of dark blue rays.

This is a real feud, and the Dalam protoss will naturally not be polite to the Zerg. The moment they appear, the golden fleet is fully fired.Accompanied by the superheated particles of the storm battleship advancing rapidly in the Tiberus galaxy, countless carrier-based aircraft and gorgeous Phoenix fighter jets roared towards the rushing swarm troops.

Now, the tables are turned.

The flagship of the Eighth Fleet of the Tyrannian Empire, the Hyperion.

The majestic bow of the Hyperion jumped out of the hyperspace channel and jumped out of the blue arc, followed by a large number of Tyrannian Empire battlecruisers.These warships are all newly built Minotaur and Gorgon-class battlecruisers, and every piece of armor and screw comes from the foundry in the core world of the empire.During the period when the Augustgrad shipyard was operating at full capacity, an average of ten Minotaur-class battlecruisers and one Gorgon were pulled out of the dock every week.

Admiral Matt Horner put one hand in front of the star chart table, which showed that the Tiberus galaxy was close in front of him.At the same time, Alexey Stukov's fleet of the Char Empire was light-years away from Horner's fleet in the other direction.

Stukov's Char fleet is a powerful imperial fleet. Some of the soldiers under its command are former UED soldiers, and the rest are elite soldiers who have been tempered in the harsh environment of Char for several years fighting Zerg.In order to deal with the virus infection of the Charkalos swarm, the soldiers of the Charle fleet also added more protective equipment, special medical soldiers and medical support ships.

Any imperial army would feel more at ease if they heard that the Char fleet was their ally.

The other direction is the fleet of the Purifier executive Corolla Leon. In comparison, what he brings is not just a simple fleet, but the Purifier mothership Sebros and all the purifiers on it. The protoss, that is the main force of this encirclement operation.

Thinking of this, Matt couldn't help admiring Emperor Augustus's literary and military strategies.

"The Tiberus galaxy is just ahead, let's do it, I can't wait." At this moment, inside the bridge of the Hyperion, there is still a cerebrum that is only the size of a small dog jumping around clamoring:

"Today I'm going to punch the Juggernaut! Kick the Archbishop of Durham!"

This cerebrate is none other than the royal cerebrate Alpha favored by Emperor Augustus and Queen Sarah.

Matt heard that it had undergone a secret experiment, and not only was it stronger than before, but it also had a facelift and became greener.

And when Matt brought the brain worm out of August Grad, he also found that it is now smaller than before, even less than four feet long.However, although the royal brain worm no longer looks bloated, it looks more and more like a horny cabbage worm.It was also affectionately called the evolution from the green caterpillar to the armored chrysalis by Augustus the Great.

Alpha, on the other hand, seemed smug and quite satisfied with the status quo. - Concentration is the essence.

"Our task is not to rush up and fight these Zergs. That's what other fleets have to do." Matt also had no choice but to deal with this cerebrum.

To be honest, Matt didn't want to bring this brain worm here, but it seemed to be a little swollen recently, and he didn't know why he angered Emperor Augustus, so he had to sneak out to take refuge.

In the final analysis, this brain worm is nothing more than a brat with amazing intelligence.

"Dr. Narud, Stetman told me that the Xel'Naga Artifact has been assembled. I want to know, can it now activate the Nova Shock at its maximum power as you said?" Matt turned his head and looked at himself. Dr. Emir Narud coming.

It has been more than four years since Emperor Augustus ascended the throne in Kehad, and it is obvious that Dr. Narud has become much older.

This is of course, in order to live up to the trust of the Great Emperor, Dr. Narud not only has to complete the reverse engineering experiments of various Xel'Naga, but also split up to prepare for the restoration of the Xel'Naga world ship.

Under such high-intensity work pressure, I am afraid that the hair will be bald.In all fairness, Matt still has great respect for a great figure like Narud who has dedicated himself to the empire selflessly.

And although Emperor Augustus personally wrote to Dr. Narud to pay attention to his health every time, he became more exhausted every time, and he was worthy of being a model worker in the empire.

"General Horner, don't worry, everything is ready." When Narud was speaking, a holographic screen suddenly popped up on Huberian's bridge.

What is displayed on the screen is the picture inside the Hyperion laboratory.

The assembled Xel'Naga artifact is being placed in the center of the laboratory. From a distance, four huge glass containers are being connected to the Xel'Naga artifact.What surprised Matt's eyes was that besides the three cerebrates, there was also a Tadarin promotion in the container.

It is said that it is also a high-level ascender in the first four seats in the chain of ascension of Tadarin.

Obviously, those are all used to power the Xel'Naga artifact.

"Hehe." A different expression flashed in Narud's eyes.

This time the Xel'Naga artifact sweeping the swarm must be able to gather enough power to resurrect his master, and the day when he returns to the universe is getting closer.

Augustus thought he was the mantis who caught the cicada and the oriole, but the real winner was Narud.

Heck, winning is already too much.

"It turned out that you did a good thing, you bastard! You really did a lot of evil!" Seeing this terrifying scene, the arrogant face of Cerebral Worm Alpha became stiff at a speed visible to the naked eye.

This scene was too scary for a young brain worm.

Narud stared at the cerebrum in silence for a while, and was so angry that he couldn't speak, he almost put you in the next sentence.

Matt's face darkened, and he took out a box of beautifully packaged sweet chocolates from his pocket and handed it to the cerebrate, trying to shut its dog's mouth.

"Put it up and put it away, it's all brothers." Although the brain worm said so, he swallowed the box in one gulp, which was not polite at all.

After gulping it down, it didn't even taste anything, so it licked its face and asked Matt again:
"Any more?"

"It's gone." Matt waved his hand and said to Narud: "Doctor, once we arrive at the predetermined location, we will immediately activate the Xel'Naga Artifact and use the maximum power of the Nova Impact to kill all the Zerg in the vicinity .”

"Of course, General," Narud said.

"Then what should I do?" The brain worm asked his own question: "I am also a zerg!"

"This part is not in the plan, I have to ask." Dr. Narud was stunned, as if he hadn't thought about it at all: "No one told me that you would come with me."

"Dear Dr. Narud, I admit that my voice may have been a little loud." The voice of the cerebrum Alpha was obviously quieter:
"forgive me."
