After the crisis at Fort Winter was completely resolved, post-war recovery work began within the town.

Since most of the buildings in the city were destroyed, Xue Hua and the others had no choice but to squeeze into the temporary military camp outside the city with the survivors of the two major legions.

Reknis and his Legion of Angels went down to help the Coalition attack Doom Hollow on Tyrelle's orders, hoping that the Coalition commander would be able to stand up to this guy's bastard personality.

The two transcendents of the Silver Robe Society, adhering to the idea of helping people to the end, also went with the coalition forces.

Their participation boosted the morale of the coalition forces, and they even had the posture of rushing into hell to kill enough money.

Tyrell went straight back to Heaven after blocking the demon forces back to the Demon Mist Canyon with the Human Legion, and before leaving, he glanced at Xue Hua with a meaningful look, which made Xue Hua feel a lot of pressure.

Regarding the life and death of Azmodan and the terrifying existence on the other side of the portal, everyone who saw that scene except Xue Hua had no clue.

Xue Hua had cautiously questioned the Silver-robed Guild Transcendent, codenamed "Skeleton", and proved that no one else except him had heard Sarnagar's words.

And Isha later told him that Sarnagar's voice was transmitted directly to his head through the mind of the main nest, and no one but him could hear it.

The adjutant's words made Xue Hua break out in a cold sweat on the spot.

As we all know, the Lord's Hive Mind was actually added by Aemon when he transformed the first generation of Masters in order to enslave the Zerg.

In terms of the structure of the spirit body, the main nest mind is very similar to the "Kara" connection of the star spirit, which is a kind of spiritual energy communication.

However, unlike "Kara", there is an extremely clear hierarchy in the mind of the main nest, which is not as simple as the so-called "social class" classification in the astral spirits, but the classification of "master" and "slave".

Specifically, under normal circumstances, the highest status in the mind of the main nest is Xue Hua, the "master", except for him, all Zerg units, including high-level commanders, are his "slaves".

Of course, Xue Hua didn't like this word very much, but this was indeed the domineering of the main nest's mental system.

In some unusual cases, the so-called "Zerg Master" is actually just Eamon's creation, just like the first generation of Juggernaut and the swarm it controls, it is just a tool and weapon of Emmon.

This situation did not change until Sister Kai took control of the swarm, especially at the end of the Wings of Liberty campaign, when Kerrigan was completely purified by the power of the Sarnagar artifact, and the entire swarm was completely out of Emon's control.

However, the problem here is that Kerrigan was only able to break free from Emon's control after being bombarded by Sarnagar's artifact, so what should he Xue Hua do?

He didn't have any Sarnagar artifact in his hand to bathe himself, and although Narud was not Emon, could he still have a killer weapon in his hand that could usurp Xue Hua's dominance?

As soon as he thought that when he confronted Narud at that time, the insect swarm might directly rebel en masse, Xue Hua couldn't stop the cold sweat on his forehead......

However, his speculation was quickly denied by Isha.

Isha told him that since the Queen of Blades was promoted to Sarnagar and completely liberated the swarm, the swarm would no longer be under Sarnagar's control, and that Narud had previously shouted directly to Xue Hua through the main nest mind, but it used its powerful mental power to forcibly invade the outer communication channel of the main nest mind.

This kind of thing can only be done by creatures with a little knowledge of biters and a little bit of mental strength, such as Kane did it before.

And this kind of intrusion is only one-way, that is to say, the intruder can only unilaterally send a message to Xue Hua, and there is no way to obtain any information from the insect swarm in this way, and even whether the message it sends can be received by Xue Hua depends on whether Xue Hua is willing to receive it.

If Xue Hua didn't want to receive the information, Isha was fully capable of directly abandoning this peripheral channel, and could also completely block the other party's invasion of the mind of the main nest.

Therefore, the message that Naruod sent to him was just to scare him, and it had no practical effect at all.

After Isha's explanation, Xue Hua could be regarded as putting the hanging heart back into his stomach.

In fact, Naruod's appearance was so sudden that Xue Hua directly thought of the worst possibility.

Otherwise, this kind of thing doesn't need to be explained by Isha at all, he only needs to check the state of the main nest's mind a little, and he can confirm that there is no more advanced authority position in the main nest's mind now.

After solving this big problem, Xue Hua turned his attention back to the second world.

At present, the fighting in the entire late winter theater has basically ended, and only a few places still have small scattered demon forces still roaming.

These guys are no longer in the climate, and I believe that they will soon disappear completely under the liquidation of the professionals who came later.

However, it is worth mentioning that less than an hour after the battle on the front line in the late winter theater ended, Nelson also arrived at Late Winter Fort with the professional troops who had arrived from the direction of Midway.

Looking at the huge battle castle that had almost been reduced to ruins, the mighty legendary paladin almost burst into tears.

Especially after hearing the news of Berton's death, he ran to the city uncontrollably.

The corpses of high-ranking professionals disappear soon after they are killed, and so does Berton, so Nelson only sees the last thing left behind by this former comrade in Elena's place—his medal of merit.

"Don't be too sad, Neeson, he died heroically......"

General Edwin patted Nelson on the back and comforted, but there was a choked sore in his own voice.

Berton and Elena, the two corps commanders, were brought up by General Edwin, and together with Nelson, they formed the last bulwark of the front line in the late winter theater.

The relationship between the four people is deep, like brothers and sisters, and at this moment, when their relatives have passed away, their emotions are naturally difficult to control.

"If only I could have ...... earlier," Nelson muttered to himself, but his words were quickly interrupted by Elena.

"Don't say that, we all know that you've done your best, and I'm sure Bettorn thinks the same way."

“......”

The atmosphere at the head of the city was sad and desolate, and even the huge golden sun in the sky of the Second World rarely hid in the black smoke rising from the city, only casting a dim light and shadow on the city.

Not only General Edwin and others, but also many professionals came to the city, holding all kinds of souvenirs left by their former comrades-in-arms, silent, bowing their heads in mourning.

Xue Hua and Kasha stood not far away watching this scene, and both of them also had sad faces on their faces.

Professionals possess great strength and a long lifespan, but few survive to the end of their lives.

Xue Hua now suddenly understood the fugitives who were hiding back to the rear after being killed on the front line.

If you are not mentally strong enough to be mentally strong, I am afraid that you really can't withstand it a few times......
