Chapter 2: The Fall of El 2
"Executive, the swarm is starting to retreat, are we going to pursue it?" A young female star spirit appears in front of Atanis.
"Thrandis, it seems that you have grown a lot recently, however, there are still many swarms, and our attack with the human brothers just now did not achieve effective results, so their retreat is more like luring us into taking the bait," he said, and he gave an order through Kara's psychic link, "Templars, I am your executive, don't chase the insects for the time being, and treat the wounded."
"You're calm, Executive, that's not often seen among Templars," Zeratul appeared, surrounded by a few wounded warriors.
"Zeratul, you're hurt? Ambushed? β
"Yes, this time the insects have made ample defenses, and the Juggernaut seems to know that I will continue to stab the brain worms, so I have met with crazy resistance, and besides, they seem to have the facilities and skills to detect our invisibility."
"Oh? What does it look like? β
"Uhhhh It seems that there are all that fly in the sky and crawl on the ground, and the kind that flies in the sky is like a ball of flesh, covered with eyes and sarcoma."
"It's Euglena and Spore Reptiles, they can detect invisible units in the area within a certain range," Artanis' replied, "In this case, it doesn't work to assassinate in advance, let's act according to the plan, it seems that we still have to be just front-looking" He continued to bow his head and mutter. Zeratul didn't fully understand the meaning of "just head-on", but he probably guessed what Artanis' meant, and he reminded: "I just vaguely noticed that the insects are starting to retreat, is this some kind of conspiracy?" β
"Yes, of course, according to the plot, the thunder beast will appear soon, and it is the king beast of the thunder beast, damn the high-level council, many forbidden weapons can't be used, if I had a few colossus, I wouldn't be so passive now" Artanis thought in his heart, but he still answered Zeratu's question, "According to the previous dealings, when the alien worm can't open the situation, or when the battle situation is anxious, it will put in heavy armor units, in my impression, there are only pit worms and thunder beasts." And we currently lack an effective means of attacking the Thunder Beasts."
"Don't forget about us, friend, since we can't get close, then we will strike from a distance, we still have a few tanks to put into the battlefield, that thing has been guarding the position just now, and now, it is time for them to exert their might." James Renault came from behind and said, "Hey, Zeratul, you don't look very good."
"James, you're still like this, this time the war of our star spirits has dragged you down."
"Haha, see you, we're friends, aren't we, for the sake of friends, we don't hesitate, this is the survival of our Renault Ranger!"
"James, if we succeed this time, the Templars will always remember your kindness," Artanis' continued, "Next... β
"Report, Executive, there's an anomaly ahead"
"What, is it coming?" "What's coming?" "Could it be the thunder beast you were talking about?"
"I'm afraid ... Yes, Tanhime, immediately prepare the fleet beacon" At this time, Artanis has begun to use psionic energy to perceive the entire frontal battlefield, in the psionic perception, located in the center of the entire battlefield, several huge thunder beasts or king beasts, suddenly drilled out of the ground, the surrounding Templars were caught off guard by this sudden change, and when they were about to counterattack, the retreating alien insect troops suddenly reflexively attacked, and more tunnel insects appeared on the battlefield, dense jumping insects, cockroaches, and aberrations appeared in front of everyone, Even dragons appeared in the sky, and despair began to spread...
Meanwhile, the El Orbit, the Giantric Trisol, the capital ship of the Astral Spirit Seventh Fleet.
"Executive, there's an air attack on the ground below, and we urgently need our support"
"Is the fleet replenishment and assembly completed, and the navigation beacons completed?" Tassadar asked hurriedly.
"Ready, ready to go to the battlefield at any time"
"Well, Templars, our homeland is being devastated, and as the firstborn of the gods, it is a disgrace to us. The time of our life and death is coming, warriors, let's go fight together, for the sake of El! Adjutant, start jumping and let the bugs know how good we are."
"Yes, the jump begins, the target, the air over the direction of El 110,99, the countdown begins 10,9,8... 3, 2, 1, done"
The entire fleet disappeared into the space-time gate with a "whoosh", and reappeared, coming to the sky above the buoy.
"Release the carrier-based aircraft, the Phoenix fighter is on guard around it, and support the ground, the ship's railgun aims at those tunnel worms and thunder beasts, and fires" Tassadar's cold face was full of determination and madness at this time. The entire fleet of railguns began to strafe the swarm on the ground, and the carrier-based aircraft and Phoenix fighters began to attack the flying dragons in the sky.
At this time, the ground forces
Artanis breathed a long sigh of relief at the sight of the fleet, if he needed to breathe, of course. He turned to face the remaining Templars and encouraged, "Warriors, our fleet has arrived, the destruction of the worms is imminent, the road to the main nest of the worms has been opened, the time for a counterattack has come, let us unite as one, destroy the brainworms, destroy the master, and the El will be reborn!" β
βEn Taro Adun!β The Stars responded violently, "We'll hide in the shadows and wait for an opportunity to take out the brainworms" Zeratul said, "Man, my men will cover you on the flanks" These were Renault's words, "Executive, let me and my dragon knights be the vanguard and drive into the main lair" Phoenix said, leading the troops to charge. "Alright, all of you, move forward," Artanis responded.
At this time, the brain worms seemed to sense something, a large number of tunnel worms began to burrow out of the ground, countless alien insects appeared, and the flying dragons in the sky desperately attacked the ground forces, but it was too late, the appearance of the fleet was like a fuse, and this also marked that the balance of victory began to tilt in favor of the star spirit.
Finally, the entire insect nest was exposed to everyone's eyes, and all kinds of insect swarm buildings appeared there densely, and the hideous appearance and disgusting smell diffused there. The ground is corroded by the fungus blanket tumor, and not a single grass grows.
"Damn it, what have they done, come on, warriors, destroy them"
Although the insect resisted desperately, under the attack of the fanatic who was not afraid of death, and with the support of the fleet with heavy casualties, the brain worm was finally successfully killed. The swarm suddenly fell into disarray and scattered, and the road to the temple of Sarnagar was finally clear.
