Harmonic Battleship Hyperion

"My lord, it seems that I am not your opponent in a simple sword move, so please experience the power of lightning from my envoy."

After finishing speaking, a dense stream of lightning surged from the girl's body, amazed by the rangers onlookers.

The last time I saw a similar scene was when Kerrigan was furious on the bridge.

"This girl..."

Teresa mumbled dumbfoundedly, and at the same time ordered Judah's oath to open the invisible psionic matrix, faintly protecting this area of ​​the training ground.

"Since this is the case, I will also welcome your attack in the most serious state, Raiden Mei."

Yae Sakura nodded lightly, brought Sakura Fubuki back to her waist, and put on a posture similar to drawing a sword.

Immediately afterwards, a faint crimson light burst out from her body, like falling cherry blossoms... But compared to this, what is more eye-catching is the thing that appeared above her head out of thin air...

A pair of pink fox long ears.

Chapter 161

Chapter 161

"If I had a choice, I really don't want to go back to this horrible place..."

"But you still decided to come back?"

"Yeah... because old Raynor isn't what he used to be! We have Tex now! Siege tanks! And Valkyries!"

In Halm's twitching eyes, Renault, who seemed to be lamenting the sad past, suddenly turned into a full-fledged second-year-old, "This time I must completely wipe out the infection on this planet!"

Commander, are you sure you don't want to take revenge for being besieged by infected bodies for a week?

After careful consideration for a few seconds, Halm still didn't tell the truth.

At this time, both the Hyperion and Tex have arrived at the high-altitude orbit of Meinhof and are scanning the surface of the planet.

As one of the planets with the richest known mineral resources in the Koprulu star region, the population density of Meinhof was quite large back then, and various goods trading businesses were also very lively. In terms of prosperity, it may be second only to Korha. The core world of the class.

If a colony like this was infected, the result would be absolutely unimaginable, so the military power stationed here by the Kelmorian Consortium, which surrendered to the empire, is worth seeing.

However, Arcturus' passive defensive strategy perfectly explained what pig teammates are: in the early stage of the infection outbreak, when the garrison still had enough strength and opportunities to eliminate it, they received an order to immediately evacuate and return to the core world , As for the countless workers and their families on the Meinhof, they were directly thrown to the infected body.

Then the following tragedy is doomed... Lacking the necessary military force to guard, not even the evacuation before the outbreak of the infection, all the major cities on the Meinhof fell in just a few nights, Turned into a dead city where monsters run rampant.

Renault brought the troops here before because Dr. Ariel Hansen noticed the threat of infection in advance, prompting some civilians to successfully survive the infected bodies everywhere.

But the Rangers simply don't have the ability to clean up the infection on the entire planet... Not to mention the number of infected bodies in the millions, the Zerg that caused all this to happen is still entrenched somewhere, and I don't know if they are planning something.

"I remember they couldn't stand the sun in the Meinhof, and I hope they still do."

"There's no need to 'hope', sir, our radar has not detected the activity of the infected, they must be hiding in the dark."

Hearing this, Renault immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

One of the main features of Meinhof is its ultraviolet intensity. If ordinary people stay outside without any protective clothing, they will easily be burned, so it is a good choice for night action.

The same is true for the infected body, the activated mutant cells cannot withstand this level of light, and it only takes one to two minutes for the intense cell energy reaction to trigger the spontaneous combustion of the infected body, turning into a ball in the sun ash.

I believe this is also the reason why various urban areas were able to survive the purposeful infection of Zerg for several days, otherwise there would be no chance at all.

"Very well, it seems that the old tactics are still useful. We go down to clean up the infection during the day and retreat to the battleship at night."

"...Is the fuel free, sir?"

"Of course, but we are not short of this money now."

Reynolds lit his cigar in a coquettish manner, and blew the smoke ring from the training session above his head, "If I can determine the location of those Zerg troops, I even want to let the Hyperion and Tex drop down directly. "

Infected bodies that can only run rampant on the ground naturally pose no threat to the sturdy battlecruiser, which also proves from the side how crazy Arcturus' decision to abandon Meinhof directly a year ago... In fact, as long as a few If several fighter planes bombed the infected area in turn, they would definitely be able to buy enough time to evacuate civilians.

But as early as a year ago, the rangers found traces of the Zerg on this planet, so Renault must not take it lightly anymore.

"Contact the investigation team that Matt mentioned, Harm, and see how lucky they are."

"Yes, sir."

The Imperial Command issued the order a month ago, and if there were no accidents along the way, the investigation team should have arrived at Meinhof more than 20 days ago.

This is not an easy time to hold on to the dangerous infected planet, so Raynor didn't hold out much hope.

But after only 2 minutes, he realized that he was wrong.

"I'm so glad to meet you, Commander... This planet is in big trouble. If this infection is allowed to spread, everyone will probably die. We must stop this!"

"Oh... calm down, ma'am."

Seeing the female officer dressed as a medical soldier appearing on the communication screen, Renault raised his hands and made a downward motion, "I know what's going on at Meinhof, I came here a year ago to fight the infected body. .”

"A year ago? Are you Commander James Raynor?"

"I'm not very used to it, but James Raynor is me, ma'am."

"...I'm sorry, Commander Renault, I haven't joined the Imperial Army for a long time, so I didn't recognize you."

not long?

Both Renault and Harm felt a little strange... Logically speaking, neither Matt Horner nor Valerian is likely to send recruits to carry out such extremely dangerous investigation missions...

Then the only explanation is that the opponent may be a veteran who chooses to serve the new empire, just like the Rangers.

This idea was quickly confirmed.

"Rosa Morales, a lieutenant in the military rank, is now the medical captain of the special investigation team."

"Morales? Are you the UED remnant who has been wanted by the empire?"

Harm had obviously heard Morales' name before, and his words were a bit unpleasant because of his surprise, but the other party didn't care.

"You're right, sir, I was hiding there a few months ago... But these are not important now. The important thing is that we must eliminate the infected creatures on the Meinhof."

After the Brood War ended five years ago, the expedition fleet sent by the UED to take over the Koprulu sector was completely wiped out by Kerrigan's swarm, and those troops that did not stay on the battleship became survivors...but it is a pity , Arcturus has always been a man who must take revenge.

After the situation in the Tyrannian Empire gradually stabilized, and the Zerg and Protoss also fell silent, he turned his attention to eliminating dissidents and eliminating threats. Raynor's rangers were naturally the top priority, and in addition , UED's surviving troops are also one of the important targets.

Judging by the fact that Korha was captured by the UED almost overnight, these soldiers from Earth are far superior to humans in the Koprulu sector in terms of mobility and tactical level, so even if the main fleet is attacked by insects Swarm devouring, those remnants of forces scattered in various colonial planets are also potential threats, which have to be guarded against.

Buying, hunting, suppressing, and assassinating, the officers and agents of the empire will do everything they can to deal with the remnants of the UED that cannot be incorporated one by one. Officers with a certain status like Morales are the key targets.

This situation did not change until Arcturus was killed by Kerrigan, Valerian came to power to form a new empire, and revoked a large number of arrest warrants...

"It appears we are all criminals 'pardoned' by Valerian, Lieutenant."

Renault, who was in a good mood, made a small joke, and then brought the topic back to the business, "Then tell me what you mean by what you just said? Hasn't the infection spread to the entire planet?"

"That's right, Commander Renault, but I bet you can't imagine what happened to these infected bodies."

……

"It's all contusions from a purely physical impact, and with your fitness you'll be fine for a few hours."

Reaching out to turn off the biological observation device, Dr. Angela waved at Lin Yuan as if to repel flies, "Get up quickly, I knew it was a waste of time to give you a physical examination."

"Actually, I think so too, doctor, but I can't refuse Mei."

In fact, during these days, Fu Hua's special martial arts training for Lin Yuan seemed thrilling, but it never caused any real harm to him... After all, if this really happened, it would be Fu Hua himself who felt distressed... …

But this is not the case in the eyes of others, especially Mei, who is as gentle as water and has little knowledge. Bronya said that she almost cried is not an exaggeration, but after seeing Lin Yuan's "tragedy" on the first day. real reaction.

No, the discussion with Yae Sakura had just ended, and when she saw Lin Yuan who was watching, the girl asked him to accompany her to the medical room for a checkup.

Accompany a P!You clearly want to take Lin Yuan to the medical room to show to Dr. Angela!

This is the heartfelt voice of some members of the rangers who admire Mei... Of course, there is also the sound of heartbreak at the same time, which represents the complete shattering of some possible hopes.

"Can't refuse? I think you kid is enjoying it?"

"how you said that?"

"Don't talk like Fu Hua!"

Doctor Angela gave Lin Yuan a sideways look, "Be honest, kid, did you do anything to Mei?"

"I took her on the Galban Companion to deal with Eradicator droids and large infestation."

"I didn't say that, I meant whether you pursued her or something."

From Dr. Angela's point of view, the little girl Leiden Mei's attitude towards Lin Yuan is obviously different from other Valkyries...not now, but just two days ago.

Although Fu Hua is suspected of being jealous now, she was quite serious three months ago, and her relationship with Lin Yuan was also considered innocent. Dr. Angela was the person who brought her into the human science system of the Koprulu star area It is very clear.

But now... I really don't know why it "fell".

Little Angel Kiyana can understand that Dr. Angela has seen this kind of children no matter on Earth or in the Koprulu star area: their lively and cuteness is just a cover for their fragile hearts, and they are eager to gain the favor of others through this performance.

She doesn't know what kind of past Kiyana has, but she knows that this child must be very lonely and sensitive, and she is more afraid of being ignored and ignored by others than being injured in battle... Don't forget, Doctor Angela is very good at psychotherapy. He is also quite accomplished, not a surgeon who only knows how to perform operations.

To describe it in a popular saying, whoever treats her well, she will treat them double, so it is not surprising that Qiyana likes to hang around Lin Yuan, after all, this guy has a very good attitude towards the Valkyries.

As for Teresa and Bronya, who can be said to be two generations old, there is no obvious performance in this regard, and the new Yae sisters are still short-lived and not mentioned.

The only thing that made Doctor Angela feel strange was Mei.

"What is 'pursuit'?"

"... Forget it, I'm the stupid one who asked this question."

Under Lin Yuan's strange eyes, Dr. Angela pinched her forehead helplessly, "Let me put it another way, don't you think her attitude towards you is a bit too nice?"

Have it?

Suspicious Lin Yuan pinched his chin and thought for a while, and immediately found some noteworthy details.

I remember that after I saw Fu Hua for the first time, I was directly beaten into this special treatment room. After I hid in the cabinet with Qiyana in my arms for the first time, I was also beaten in the face by her several times. Ya is even more straightforward, this girl has sent the reloading rabbit to clean up herself not once or twice.

Only Mei, it seems that she has never touched her hands, and she has never even been angry with herself.

Could it be that……

"I can swear to God, Dr. Angela, I never lent her money."

"Huh? Where did you go, I'm talking about attitude! Forget it, did you know each other before?"

No matter how successful a mature woman is, she can't escape the attribute of gossip... Dr. Angela, who is crossing her arms and smiling slightly, is a good proof of this point.

But to say this reminded Lin Yuan, in fact, he also noticed that there were often some unexplainable things in Mei's eyes when looking at him.

Such as inexplicable hesitation, and some faint confusion.
