"Grab it..."
"Actually... that's how it is..."
They walked up the wide hanging staircase in a dull manner, and came to the command floor upstairs, and the heavy door opened in front of them.Inside was the bridge, Jim Raynor's own control room.It's as flashy as any other room here, imagine an auditorium with a ring of monitors and consoles, or a banquet hall full of consoles.
A bridge decked out in tiles and wood, covered in velvet and silk, sounds weird, doesn't it?
emmm... It seems that a female commander of the Zeon Army even put a sofa and a whole tiger skin in her bridge... Tartarus has a lot of minimalism here, at most it is a Titan or a giant There are cheap and convenient small things such as barbecue grills or cat climbing frames in the bridge of the ship that can be used at any time.
I don't understand you local tyrants who put all kinds of expensive skins on their bridges. (dumb face)
"Sir!" Matt Horner in the command chair saluted him, and was about to stand up to make room for Jim Raynor.
But Renault waved his hand, motioning him to sit still:
"What's going on? The swarm has been gone for several years, why attack Mar Sara?"
"Not just Mar Sara, sir, look at this."
Matt Horner opened the star map. On the star map, the red arrow representing the attack of the swarm has pierced the border of the empire, and several surrounding star fields have fallen, while the arrow representing the imperial fleet is shrinking towards the hinterland .
"..." Renault looked at those arrows, frowning and remained silent.
"And...these." The handsome young man pressed a few times on the console and turned on the news, all kinds of news came out like a blowout, all the news, all the media were talking about the same thing thing--
【——Earlier, the swarm launched a full-scale attack——”
[——All outer planets are destroyed——]
[—Casualties have reached hundreds of millions——]
[The latest video shows that the leader of this swarm attack is the Queen of Blades! 】
It was a not-so-clear image, but the creature with a woman's appearance, huge bony wings, and psionic light gushing out of its eyes was undoubtedly the Queen of Blades.
"Mengsk recalled the fleet to defend the core world, and completely abandoned the outer galaxies," the captain of the Hyperion made no secret of his anger towards Mengsk, "He is letting the people there fend for themselves!"
"My mother..." Tychus couldn't help shaking his head as he watched the scenes that were tumbling on the news.
Sarah... no, the Queen of Blades...
Jim Raynor sighed, his gaze through the screen, and those eyes shining with psychic power met for a few seconds.She is not her anymore, but she is still her, one day I will meet her, what should I do at that time?
"We knew she was coming back, but what is she going to do now?" Matt Horner noticed the officer's expression, and he asked subconsciously.
There is only one answer, and Jim Raynor knows it well:
"She still has something to do."
"Captain, received the communication." The voice of the communicator suddenly sounded, "The shuttle from the Ember requests to board the ship."
Ember?
By the way, it's the name of that pirate ship.When the Zerg attack happened, the pirate ship——the ship type was the Cerberus class of Port of the Dead. Matt Horner's heart skipped a beat when he saw this, until he found out that it was not an acquaintance related to playing cards. Stabilized - for some obscure reason, right near Mar Sara.
But unlike other pirates, they chose to rescue the local residents after receiving the distress signal.It is unimaginable that the boss of the pirates actually put on the power armor and went down to the ground to fight the Zerg.
What kind of crazy would want to box with a springtail.
"Let them come up, but stay alert." Renault glanced at another battleship less than five kilometers away from here through the porthole. She has a beautiful streamlined hull, and a symbolic skull is painted on the hull—— That's right, a pirate ship.
Although the other party has helped a lot in Mar Sara, but the other party is a pirate, so we must be on guard.He had seen the battle of the pirate chief, and although it was impolite to say it directly, Jim Raynor believed that it was not human behavior at all.
A desperado, a desperado with high combat effectiveness, and a pirate.If you can, don't even want to let this person on board...
But when the legendary pirate leader appeared on the bridge, everyone was taken aback.
Wearing a black gold-rimmed coat and a three-cornered hat, a purple-haired girl less than 160 centimeters tall walked into the bridge accompanied by two men in sunglasses.An owl stood on his shoulder, and two big cats followed him. Two leather belts were tied around his chest, and the buckles on the top were fastened with thick bullets.
What an owl!That's an owl!And those two cats!Where the hell did you get such a rare beast!
Yes, pirates.
Pirates in the traditional sense...traditional as if stepped out of a storybook.
It's really hard to imagine that there are still pirates dressed like this in the interstellar age. Could it be said that pirates are actually circuses or something?
"Hi, Jim Raynor." She introduced herself, "We are the leader of the 'Danbier' pirate group, Oregana 0032."
The 'Dampier' pirate group was a name decided after a long discussion (about 7 minutes) - the name comes from William Dampier, a British pirate, navigator, charter, and discoverer of Australia.Unlike other pirates, he doesn't care about money and jewels, but has a strong interest in meteorology, hydrological phenomena, and marine flora and fauna. Years of sailing experience as a pirate have made him very familiar with everything in the natural world.He is a hero among navigators. (convinced)
"'Danbier'...a name I have never heard of." Jim Leno did not understand the deep meaning of this name. After all, for them, this is already a historical story that is too early to know where, or it has nothing to do with him The kind of relationship.But he could tell the Cerberus-class origin at a glance, "But look at that ship, does it have something to do with Port of the Dead?"
How could such a person be the boss of a pirate gang?This kind of question didn't come to him until he noticed a little light flickering in Oregana's eyes——
If this is a psyker, then no surprise.
"Maybe a little bit." It's super relevant, it took a lot of effort to get it out of the port of the dead, and Colonel Orlan may not be able to sleep well during this period of time. "The Zerg is back again, This is really a disaster. When our ship passed by here, it happened to receive a distress signal, so we stopped by to take a look."
"Thank you for your help, we will definitely pay you."
"Don't worry, the situation is still very bad. We can talk about the money later." She stepped forward, pointed at the star map and said, the owl's eyes on her shoulders followed the direction of her fingers, making a gesture. A look like [I can understand] "Look, here, here, here, and here, there are bugs everywhere. We need to make sure there are still people alive... at least we will try our best to go It’s worth it, the famous Jim Raynor must not die.”
"Of course, we are not the sons of the beach like Mengsk." Matt Horner puffed up his chest. "Reno's Rangers will never give up on the people!"
"Even pirates start to care about refugees these days?" Tychus looked at Oregana with scrutiny.
"Big man," Oregana smiled, "You have to know that business cannot be lost. It is more in line with the interest to keep the water flowing. Besides, we also accept employment. These refugees are future customers, so we can't neglect them. "
"You really don't hide it."
"We've always been straight to the point. But, big man..."
"My name is Tychus, Tychus Finley."
"Then Mr. Finley," she looked up at the bald man who was wearing power armor and was more than two meters tall, "do you also wear this outfit on the ship?"
"That's right, did you rent this clothes?" Renault also asked, but his train of thought seemed a little strange——
It’s like renting videotapes or CDs in the early years, and you can watch them several times before the time is up, as if you made money by yourself, and you can watch it without blood loss.
Is there a shop that rents power armor by the hour?
"Okay," Tychus replied, shaking his head, "somebody gave me a favor during the escape, and I'll have to wear this until I pay back the favor."
"Sir, we have received a wide-area signal." Just when Renault was about to continue asking, the communications soldier said loudly again, "It's a distress signal!"
"Huh?" Now the survivors are the most urgent matters, and the muscular man and power armor are in the back row! "Release it!"
What appeared on the screen was a girl with excellent eyes and eyes. She was wearing a white robe common to researchers and had short hair that made people feel graceful.
The video feed appears to be muffled by interference, the sound is choppy, and there are occasional explosions in the background.The short hair in the white robe looks tense——
【...Fleet that received this signal, please pay attention... The swarm is invading Agria, the empire... has abandoned us... We are just an agricultural colony, the people need to evacuate immediately... If you receive this message message, please help us! 】
Although the voice was very loud and the speech was intermittent, the key words were quite clear.
Then that's enough.
"Business is here." Oregana greeted, and the two cats who were trying to reach the bullets on Jim Raynor's armed belt returned to her side, "The 'Dambier' pirate group will set off immediately, let's start Back to our ship to command... time is tight, we will talk slowly after we finish this order."
"Well, that's right." Jim Raynor nodded, "We must support immediately... Let's talk later, I still have a lot of things I want to ask you."
"No problem. At that time, we can also calculate the money a little bit."
Renault began to regret adding such a sentence.
But there are still many things that must be asked, such as——
Why is your equipment, except for the medical transport aircraft, all so different from the standard equipment of the empire and the market?

PS2: continue meow 0w0 tomorrow
Chapter 440 Chapter 400: ZERG!This is my escape route! !
Dr. Ariel Hansen was rubbing her eye sockets tiredly in the communication room. The shouts and explosions from outside passed through the walls with poor sound insulation and kept ringing in her ears.From time to time, the flames of explosions flickered outside the window, illuminating the room flickering.
Everything sucks.
The Zerg broke into the planet with a swift force. In the past twelve hours, she tried her best to transport the inhabitants to the star port with all possible vehicles, but after the planetary defense was completely breached, the evacuation work stopped. become difficult to continue.
Faced with the springtails scurrying around the highway, most self-proclaimed veteran drivers dare not drive their loads out of the central base.
Agria is famous for cutting-edge scientific research and imitation eco-environmental equipment. Although the Koprulu star area has been full of chaos in recent years, Agria still maintains a relatively safe and prosperous environment. When the Federation collapsed, the Tyrann Empire Using Agria as a major food storage base, they even stationed a permanently stationed defense force on the planet.
Although these defense forces committed despicable acts of killing civilians indiscriminately during the pirate invasion, Agria was generally in a peaceful atmosphere.
Here comes the problem. On a planet that has been in a peaceful atmosphere for a long time, people's ability to respond to crises will be slowed down by about half a beat, which will be very fatal in critical moments.
Dr. Ariel Hansen has spent most of her life in Agria, the idyllic settlement her father founded.Ariel's mother, renowned geneticist Dr. Taliss Cogan, divorced her father, Bernard Hansen, at an early age when he decided to travel to the fringes of the wild Planet Agria.Without their mother by their side, the other settlers in Agria felt like Ariel's family.
But now, her family, her people are being slaughtered, and the Empire doesn't take people here as seriously as ever.If no one heard his cry for help, I'm afraid these poor people would die here.
"Dr. Hansen! The transport vehicle is ready! You should leave first!" A soldier came in from the door. There was a terrible scar on his armor, and his face was full of exhaustion.
The doctor stood up: "No, make sure the civilians are evacuated first! We are running out of time."
"Doctor, you should know that you and..."
Just hearing this, Ariel Hansen felt a burst of anger pouring out of her chest.But her rational side made her unable to get angry with this soldier—the doctor himself knew that at this critical moment, if he continued to push and shrug like in the movie, he would end up with the end of all the soldiers dying here together.
The more I understand this, the more uncomfortable I feel.
At this critical moment when a difficult decision was about to be made, the communication device that had not responded for more than ten hours suddenly lit up—a man with an unshaven beard appeared on the screen:
[Is anyone still alive?We just received a distress call, please call back. 】
"!!"
----------
This communication was also shared on the Ember's bridge, and Oregana looked at the short-haired woman in white robe with a thoughtful expression.
"This person is Dr. Ariel Hansen," War Scythe introduced, "a scientific genius, engaged in bioengineering, who published a research report on plant gene mutations at the age of 11."
"11 years old? So powerful?" Oregana looked surprised, this is the first time she saw a real genius girl "When we were 11 years old, we were still obsessed with writing about Lance ○ using knights to not die and controlling F with bare hands -15 'Eagle Monster' fighter jets, and SA○ER used riding A to drive F-86 'SABRE' fighter jets to conduct a cross-era air battle over Fuyuki City..."
"You're so good! Did you already have such a big brain at the age of 11?!" War Scythe complained loudly, and then fell into thinking, "But it seems that S○BER's chances of winning are very low. .”
"What about Captain Kruse when he was 11?"
