The Bizarre Adventure of Tartaros Fleet

"It's me." Jim Raynor carefully kept a distance from this big guy. He thought of the mechs that are common in the army. This guy looks like a stronger 'Wolf Warrior'. "My name is James Raynor."

【Ah!It turned out to be the famous Jim Raynor! 】The sound coming from the loudspeaker is very loud, as if the air has been torn apart【You are here! 】

"What? Do you want to take me to Mengsk to receive a reward?"

For years, his struggle had been at a low ebb, with Arcturus Mengsk using all his tools—election, media, publicity—to marginalize Renault's efforts.Renault's guerrillas are still the number one public enemy of the Imperium of Man - a public enemy that will cost a lot of money to wipe out even if the bugs come.

[How come, I hate that old man to death, the bugs have invaded, and he still spends so much money and manpower to catch some idiots and traitors.I don't want anything to do with Mengsk, I swear by my grandmother on Dead Rock, if I see him, I'll kick his ass with boots full of zerg boogers! 】

The steel giant made a gesture of spreading his hands like a human being, and then held the gun with one hand, unloaded the empty magazine and replaced it with a new one.

"...Idiot traitor, do you mean me?" Jim Raynor felt the corners of his eyes twitch.

[Did I say that? 】

"Yes, you did." Tychus responded with a rough throat. "I can hear you clearly."

【Oh, this is irrelevant. ] This very...very mercenary driver laughed a few times, as if he was trying to hide his embarrassment [We have bigger things to do now, are there any survivors in the city? 】

"Yes, they have been sending out distress calls, but we..." As soon as he said this, Jim Raynor's expression, which had been slightly relieved by the arrival of reinforcements, tightened again.The attack of the swarm was extremely fast, and by the time they realized what was happening, the city had already been beaten to pieces.The radio kept sending distress signals from various areas, but he tried his best but the clay golem crossed the Euphrates River.

As time went on, there were fewer and fewer distress signals, which made him feel very uncomfortable.

[I understand, I understand, after all, no one can protect themselves just now. 】The big man was very considerate and did not continue to ask further 【It seems that your soldiers are tired, so let us rescue those poor people. 】

"Thank you so much! They also..."

【Thank you. 】'Troll' Gefu interrupted him 【They are all in this industry, and the price will not be less after that.Everyone, let's go! 】

The Iron Giants reloaded their ammunition, then rushed to the front line, heading for the distress signal.

Seeing this group of mercenaries rushing through the mud and water in a hurry, Jim Raynor was a little dumbfounded.The other side seems to have not reported his name and affiliation...

"Haha!" Tychus whistled and grinned. "This dude is quite to my liking. He talks straight to the point without so many twists and turns."

"To put it another way, it's also called outspokenness..." A certain idiot traitor said that the straightforward and real Nima was impressive, "But where is this mercenary? Have you seen that badge?"

"How could I have seen it? If I had seen it, you would have seen it." Tychus, who had just been released from prison for a few days, had an expression of [You don't know how I could know] "But I didn't see it. But it’s not surprising, is it? There are so many small mercenary gangs in the corner, who can recognize them all?”

"That's right... tsk, I don't know how high they will charge in the future." To be fair, my funds have not been very abundant... But this is something I can't help, it is a necessary expense "Everyone, take advantage of it now Take a break and restock your ammo!"

------------

Thirty thousand kilometers above the sky, the Cerberus-class front-line black stealth special service ship "Ember"

Thanks to the hard work of all the technicians and engineers, the battleship finally successfully set sail within the stipulated time, and then rushed to Mar Sara star. Now she is hiding her figure in the sky and working hard as the frontline command with.

"The landing force and Jim Raynor are connected." Captain War Scythe has been monitoring the communication below. "As expected, he accepted our help."

"Look, I said I would charge money." The chief engineer of the ship, the Tin Woodman, said solemnly, "It seems a little abnormal to do good deeds for free at a time like this. We are now a law-breaking organization that is half pirates and half mercenaries. Gotta get paid."

In order to reflect the feeling of a pirate, she also specially wore a blindfold, and borrowed her owl from Haitu.Now the furry creature was standing on the Tin Woodman's shoulder, turning its head from side to side and looking around.

The owl's neck is so flexible, it can turn to the back... (poking)

"That's right, that's what makes sense."

"Human beings are so complicated..." Machine Soul was puzzled.jpg

"The radar shows that there are multiple large biological units nearby. They should be Zerg transport ships. I don't know if there are warships escorting them." The radar detected a large area of ​​signals. state."

Let's hope it's not Kerrigan's own fleet.

From the point of view of warfare, I have to say that Kerrigan's surprise attack this time is great - multi-line raid, attacking multiple edge worlds at the same time, causing the feeling of swarms coming out and attacking.As a result, the main force of the empire shrank its troops to defend the main area, and the marginal world was basically abandoned, thrown into the mouth of the worms and let them eat.

How many troops had Kerrigan actually assembled at this point?no one knows.

"Do you need to intercept it?" asked the first officer and combat commander, Lou Lu Kruse.

"Don't intercept," War Scythe flatly refused. "This ship has just rolled off the production line, and all the equipment is still in the process of running in. At this time, this warship should not be allowed to fight against an unknown enemy."

"Your will."

"Did you say they found us when we were airdropped just now?"

"If this local equipment is as good as it is written in the manual," Oregana blackmailed Erlang while sitting on the admiral's table, "then those bug ships probably didn't see us directly, but the landing troops must have been seen .”

"That means they know that there is an unidentified warship here, right?"

"Maybe the other side is also afraid of us?"

Oregana stood up, walked to the console, looked at the radar map and frowned: "After we rescue the civilians trapped in the city by the bugs, let's evacuate."

"By the way... how many citizens are trapped in the city?"

"Emmmm... According to the data, there are 8 people on Mar Sara." The Scythe of War replied, "And the Zerg attack has started for about five hours..."

"..."

"..."

If five hours had elapsed since the outbreak of Resident Evil, the vast majority of people in a city would still be alive. Strong walls and security doors would allow these poor people to live longer.But the Zerg Invasion is another story - what kind of security doors do you need to stop the Hydralisk, oh my.

In five hours, most of the people in the city should have been torn apart...

There was an uncomfortable silence on the bridge.According to Tartarus's previous habit, if he saw it, he must go to rescue it, but this time it was completely because of lack of ability that he couldn't easily rush to the scene and carry out rescue easily, which really made people feel unwilling.

"Prepare our airborne power armor," and what broke the silence was the words of the legion commander, "You can't just sit like this, we have to go down."

"Eh?" The half-ling next to Ling suddenly jumped up, which seemed to be his new way of expressing surprise recently, "What are you going to do?"

"This ship is not equipped with the precise life-detection radar on Struth, and we can only receive the distress signal sent by the survivors themselves." She replied, "But some people may be due to equipment damage, or other reasons. Unable to send a distress signal - isn't that just waiting to die? We don't know that someone is waiting to die and do nothing!"

"Huh?" Anyone can say beautiful words, but what can they do at this time "What are you talking about... stupid...?"

But Oregana is indeed serious, and on her smooth forehead, a Khorne crest is gradually appearing:

"In the dark halls of Khorne, where evil fire devours the souls of cowards fleeing from the field of battle. The spirit and flesh of the dead travel to the brass fortress through the messengers of the blood god. We can also feel the hidden The pain and fear in the crevices... Tsk, this is originally used to track the prey and find the ability to kill the opponent..." She smacked her lips, "Send some shuttles to follow, we also need a team of medical robots .”

"Ming...understand."

Chapter 437 Chapter 397: Side Effects...Probably

From the surrounding walls came the clicking sound of automatic weapons firing.After two dull explosions, the "da da" sound of the machine gun became more urgent.

At first, the crowd always roared and screamed with the roar of machine guns, explosions and bugs, and peeked out of the rough bunker with panicked eyes-monsters ran on the familiar streets in the past, crashed buildings, tore apart Looking at the dead bodies on the road, he tore up and swallowed their flesh, chewing up and down with his mouth dripping with blood and sticky saliva.

They don't seem to be in a hurry to rush up to this high ground and kill the people inside.The prey inside is like a mouse that has been locked in a cage, there is no chance of escape, and it doesn't matter when it is killed.

A woman kept crying, and her husband was lying in pieces in the middle of the street, with his internal organs bleeding all over the floor.She seemed unable to accept the fact that her husband was no longer alive, and she kept begging the militia guarding the entrance to save the corpse.At the beginning, the people in the shelter were still persuading her, hoping that she could face the reality, but as time went by, the crowd became silent.

The flame of hope gradually extinguished in people's hearts.

"We can't survive..."

"Didn't I say it? No matter how much money you want, support is a blank promise!"

"Reinforcements come quickly... preferably before I die."

The words that blurted out, did he say it himself, or did a survivor beside him say it?Although I still can't let go of it, it must be what someone murmured.

No one doesn't want to live, but the people present are basically immigrants who have seen the world.But it is because he has seen the world, knows how strong the enemy he is facing, knows how fragile Mar Sara's defense is, and knows how bad the empire's attitude towards this border planet is.

That's why it's easier to give up hope.

"..."

A man hugged his wife and young son tightly, with a look of despair on his face.Why did things become like this?What did I do wrong to be punished like this?

Does even such a small child have to die?

In reality, there is no such warm retribution as crime and redemption.The gods may be merciful, but the zerg are not.

Everyone has heard rumors about them, and some people even saw these monsters and survived the Zerg invasion a few years ago-it was a nightmare, but now, the nightmare is in front of us, so real.

The thick metal door was pushed open, and many people jumped up in fright. They didn't sit back until they saw a soldier wearing thick power armor at the door.

This is the militia captain who temporarily organized a defensive front and fled here with the survivors.He has received training from the empire, and his ability and courage surpass that of ordinary militiamen. The defense line has not been breached until now. Apart from the fact that there is only a steep slope to reach this high ground, it is the hard work and talent of this militia leader.

Because the battlefield is not wide enough, the number of Zerglings that can rush up at the same time is fixed, so he deliberately sniped the Hydralisks in the back row with a few soldiers with good marksmanship, and the other soldiers aimed at the Zerglings climbing up the slope—— Although the battle has been fierce, and some people were injured and quit the front line, they persisted until now.

"Hold on! Everyone!" As soon as he entered the door, he noticed the oppressive atmosphere in the shelter, so the captain said loudly, "We will be saved!"

"..."

No one paid attention to him.

Everyone felt that this was probably a glimmer of hope for these refugees who were about to lose their desire to survive.It's like a medical soldier saying to a wounded soldier who has been seriously injured and lingering [It's okay!You will be fine! ] and other words, purely just comfort.

"Everyone, we just need to..." Seeing that no one responded to him, the militia captain became a little anxious. He took a few steps forward, and his metal combat boots made a heavy sound on the floor. "We just need to..."

"Look at the reality, Mr. Captain." The answer was a thin man, his eyes were sunken, and there was no light in his eyes, like a living skeleton, "The Zerg has surrounded us, and no one can save us We're done. I'd like you to give me a ride with that rifle if you can. I don't want to be bitten to death or melted."

His voice is very soft, but everyone in the quiet room can hear it.Many people even showed expressions of approval.

"It's not the last moment yet," the militia leader gasped when he saw this scene.He lowered his voice and said dully, "The people who faced the monsters have not fallen yet, so show me your strength."

People just looked up at him with lifeless gray faces, and then leaned against the wall or huddled in a corner without saying a word.

He couldn't stay here any longer. Compared with this group of guys who had lost hope, the monsters outside, the torrential rain and the explosion made people feel more at ease.After thinking about all this, he left the room as if fleeing, and slammed the door heavily.

"How is it? Captain." When he returned to the line, a militiaman was loading a new magazine into the rifle. "Those people..."

Fortunately, there is a mask to cover the expression, otherwise the militia captain doesn't know what kind of expression he will face these soldiers - the people they protect have already fallen into despair first, how can they speak out by covering the words? !

"It's not that bad, at least they're still alive." He said in a low voice, and then asked, "How many times has this been attacked?"

The attack of the Zerg was not like the gourd baby saving grandpa, one by one queuing up.They usually gather in a sizable wave, and then start to attack the defense line with alarming momentum - so the Zerg need time to gather, and the attack can be easily seen.

But the deputy's answer surprised him a bit:

"There were no mass attacks."

"Huh? But I heard gunshots just now? What's going on?"

"This is the weird part." The man in the blue power armor spread his hands. "Those beasts just suddenly went crazy and fought each other, and some of them rushed up directly."

Attack each other?Zerg cannibalism?

This is impossible!

The zerg are hive minds, essentially the end of one gigantic organism.Now that the Queen of Blades is in charge of the swarm, the entire swarm is the eyes of her will, just like her hands and feet, will your left hand fight with your right hand or feet inexplicably?

Obviously not.
