Chapter 43: Brain Worm?!

Under the cover of night, the crowd methodically walked into the city of New Detroit.

Although from Kerrigan's intelligence, everyone has learned that there are several worm nests in New Detroit City, but that is at the other end of the city, and for the Zerg, there should be no particularly valuable targets in the area where everyone is now, so until now, they have only encountered a few small groups of five Zerg, and they have not even killed them, but bypassed them from afar... After acting together with Kerrigan, they are taken seriously by the brain worm to a completely different degree.

Originally, if a small group of Zerg that didn't have much value suddenly lost contact, and the Zerg Lord's spiritual perception didn't find the enemy who launched the attack at all, the Brain Worm might not pay too much attention to it at all, and only regarded it as an ordinary stealth enemy, a ghost soldier or something, but now if something like this happens, the Brain Worm will definitely put all its energy on this area, and then divide a lot of computing power and forcibly calculate the location of this ghost squad...

"Wait!" During the march, Xue Qiong suddenly stretched out his left hand horizontally, which also made the entire team stop.

"What's wrong?" Kerrigan asked suspiciously.

Xue Qiong didn't say anything, just handed the statue of the indecent disdain to Xiao Yun's hands, and then walked slowly to the side alone, just getting farther and farther away from the main army.

Then he walked and walked, and after reaching a distance of five or six meters from the main army, he suddenly jumped back again... Although a group of people stood in place, watching him make movements of unknown meaning alone, no matter how he thought about it, it felt a little funny, but seeing that a layer of cold sweat had formed on his face in just this short period of time, he knew that Xue Qiong was not just a nervous.

Unlike the portable crack generator that Nangong You once had, the shielding range of this statuette is only five or six meters, and the effect is two-way, which means that the user's perception will also be disturbed, although it is relatively small... For example, after activating the statue, the Zerg will certainly not be able to sense all the objects within five or six meters of the statue, but Xue Qiong and Nangong You, who originally had a perception radius of nine kilometers and seven kilometers respectively, will also become able to perceive only four to five kilometers.

And before Xue Qiong weirdly jumped back to that step, he actually just slightly stretched his head out of the shielding range a little, but the location of the thing he sensed was far from within his nine-kilometer perceptual radius.

Or the same as when he felt the ghost energy transmitter on the surface, he could sense such a distant target for only one reason, and that was that the energy emitted there was too strong...

"To the east, a distance of about eighty kilometers..."Xue Qiong wiped the sweat from his head before continuing: "There is a strong ghost energy reaction, although the strength is not as strong as the ghost energy launcher, but it is much more orderly..."

At this time, including Kai Ruigan, who was the last to join the action, everyone already knew what Xue Qiong's perceptual radius was, and they also knew what the only corresponding possibility was if he could perceive objects beyond this distance.

And this perceived thing is on the surface of the planet...

Nangong You lowered his head and said slowly: "Brain worm..."

Including the previous son of Keha, in fact, no one knew that the brain worm in charge of directing this operation in the Zerg was actually hiding on an orbital platform in outer space before, so it was even more impossible to know that after it landed without dying, it actually appeared near the city without dying...

So the members of the temporary team thought that the brain worm had been here from the beginning...

Xue Qiong nodded, agreeing with this conclusion, but did not make a decision too quickly, but asked Kai Ruigan, who had been looking at the map, "How is it?" Do you smell military bases and crystal mines? ”

Knowing that the situation was urgent, Kerrigan cautiously re-examined his inference, and then groaned for a while before he said: "There are five suspicious locations, and two within twenty kilometers, but I don't know if the bugs are guarding there, and I don't know if there are any left..."

Xue Qiong took a cigarette in her mouth, didn't light it, and then said helplessly: "Try your luck... Actually, I just thought about it carefully, and there is not much difference between the brain worm and the brain worm here... Of course, when mental shielding can still be used. Moreover, we still have a warning distance of several kilometers, and if there are bugs there, it is a big deal to run. Of course, if the ore is not found, then evacuate the city by noon tomorrow. ”

Of course, the crowd had no objections, and after a brief discussion, they quickly moved towards one of the two targets that Kerrigan had pointed to.

--------

Rewind the clock to the morning, in the new Gattysburg, which has been razed to the ground.

Tasada and his party of surviving consuls soon get into new trouble... And there's nothing new about this trouble, it's just bugs.

Due to mental shielding and untraceable reasons, up to now, the brain worm still thinks that its target Kerrigan is still staying in New Gatesburg, so it is constantly sending additional troops to carry out carpet encirclement and search. Unlike humans, when the swarm re-entered the huge ruins, these Star Spirit Archons were all dazzling large balls of light, and there was no way to hide, and after several encounters, there were only four or five Star Spirit survivors, including Tasada, and he was the only one left.

Tassada is worthy of being a once-in-a-millennial genius among the star spirits, after forcibly merging himself into an archon and losing most of the high-level ability to use psionic energy, when the last consul except him fell, under the double stimulation of crisis and anger, he actually re-comprehended one of his housekeeping skills as a high-level Templar: mirror magic, and conjured up three whole fakes, before finally escaping in the chaos.

You must know that under normal circumstances, the reason why a high-level Templar of the Star Spirit can use those spells is still through the support of Kara's Dao, which concentrates the ghost energy of a large number of low-level ordinary star spirits and disturbs the free ghost energy in a small area before they can be cast. And now in the new Gattyburg, although after the lightning storm dissipates, the ghost energy escaping from the air still has a relatively high activity, which objectively reduces the spell casting requirements, but also now on the entire planet, the only star spirit that can be used as a Kara node is Tasada himself, so the increase of Kara's way to him can really be said to be minimal, in this case, with the unstable plasma-like body of the archon, he can still cast these spells, which shows how strong his talent and will are, and how firm his faith is.

But his current situation is still very bad. Not to mention the few hidden transport ships in space, they can't get off until now, his own ghost energy consumption is already very large, and even the current big light ball form is much dimmer, and there is no large army of star spirits here, he has no way to connect to Kara, and then use the high-level authority of his executive officer to make himself recover quickly... And the bugs are also pressing on step by step, according to his experience, although he is now barely hiding himself in this lucky half-destroyed spacious basement, it is estimated that he will be discovered by the Zerg within an hour. Even if after a while, those slow-moving balloon-like Zerg lords flew over the city and set up a psychic network, he would soon be completely gone.

Tasada is a four-star spirit with great ambitions in addition to talent, will, and faith, so even if the current situation is bad, he believes that he is not so easy to die, but he just grabbed all the time to recover his energy, and even he found a small pot of high-energy gas discarded by humans out of nowhere, and forcibly absorbed the energy in a dangerous way that would cause permanent damage to himself... While feeling the pain, he even had a faint tendency to re-comprehend another powerful skill: Psychic Storm.

It's just that at this important moment, the arrival of an uninvited guest made Tasada have to withdraw from the state of comprehension, and he also suffered a serious backlash. Although the brightness of the plasma-like body has recovered a lot compared to before, it is far from what is expected...

It wasn't bugs, it was a person, at least a human on the surface. But who is Tasada, of course, he can see at a glance that this guy is definitely not just human.

Samir Duran sat down on the stairs, looked at Tasada with interest, and said leisurely, "Mighty and determined Astral Warrior, are you interested in talking to me... What about making a deal? ”

Tasada, however, was vigilant enough and asked, "Who are you?" What are you? What is your purpose?! ”

Duran opened his mouth to speak, but as if he suddenly realized something, his figure became blurred, and in the next moment, he appeared in the inner part of the basement, more than ten meters behind Tasada.

And on the stairs that Duran was in before, there was a huge "X"!! The fork seems to appear directly in the air, and there is no object to rely on, but there are two traces like this!!

The air flow throughout the basement seemed to stand still when the giant fork appeared. Two seconds later, there was a crisp cracking sound on the stairs, and Tasada felt the air in the basement begin to flow, and after recovering from the shock of the blow, he noticed that at the bottom of the stairs, at some point, a tall, good-looking, meticulous suit and skirt, with beautiful blond curly hair, appeared.

The woman began to speak, but her mouth did not move, and the voice echoed throughout the underground space... It is the way of communication of the star spirits.

"If you want to turn your back on Arden, I have no problem, but I can't go with him."
