Volume V, 35: The Great Purge
By the time the battle had almost subsided, it was already ten minutes later.
As Chen Xi expected, none of the guys who had escaped before could survive, and they were caught in the middle and completely lost the chance to escape.
The narrow passage was full of corpses that had been beaten beyond recognition, and even the surrounding alloy, which was more than ten times stronger than steel, was a pothole, and there were traces of destruction from various powerful attacks and skills.
There are only a few brain-controlled worm people left alive at the messy scene, and they belong to Kenan and the others, who have the highest strength. It's just that they no longer have the same high spirits as they did at the beginning, and after being completely tricked by Chen Xi, they can only lean on each other weakly, dealing with the enemy who completely surrounds them, their faces are full of grief and indignation.
From beginning to end, the bastard who caused all this never appeared, and it was all for these people around them to consume their strength, and with the advantage of numbers and weapons, they were grinding them little by little until only the last few were left.
The experience of being extremely aggrieved made their anger uncontrollable, if Chen Xi appeared here now at this time, he would definitely kill him regardless of it, even if he paid all the price.
Of course, the sacrifices on the human side are also enormous.
Nearly half of the Federation soldiers besieging the Brain Controller have died, and even the Dark Templars who can be completely invisible have been affected by the fierce battle, three of them have died here, and many more have been injured, almost all of them have been injured.
However, Chen Xi did not have many surprises, it will always be like this on the battlefield, unless it is an overwhelming strength advantage. No one can guarantee that they will survive safely.
"Just like these poor guys, as the most powerful group of evolutionaries, I am a little jealous in terms of strength, but I can't affect the general trend of the battle at all."
Chen Xi thought with peace of mind that he had appeared here with An Yumo and the two Dark Templar warriors, planning to come over to mend the sword.
Chen Xi was very clear about the feelings of Kenan and the others who wanted to kill him, so he wanted to make these people even more depressed.
For what is it, the villain who hides in the shadows always likes to come to the decent when the victory is in hand. That's why it's saved. Humiliating your enemies is a very pleasant thing to do.
"You shrunken turtle. Finally dare to come! Seeing Chen Xi coming from the direction of the command center, only half of his body was still intact Comoros's facial features were distorted and said.
He had already lifted all the energy left in his body, as long as Chen Xi approached the right distance, he would die with this hateful bastard!
It's a pity. The Comoros' plot is clear. In the case of being very aware of all his emotional reactions. Just the right amount to stay before the baseline distance of his outburst. The Comoros was plunged into a state of anxiety.
"Damn, why don't you go anymore!"
Several people here are secretly hating in their hearts.
It is clear that the enemy has appeared, but he is under the protection of others. And the strength they have left now is impossible to break into and forcibly kill Chen Xi. Moreover, his own strength is also very strong.
After seeing the terrifying self-explosion power caused by the brute beast lice on Tifa's planet, Chen Xi could still control the brute beast intact, and he knew that this guy might not be able to attack well, but the defense must have lasted for a while, and what they lacked the most was time.
Knowing that this plan could not be thought of, Kenan rolled his eyes, and said with a sneer, "Chen Farah, I admit that you have already won, but don't think that you can please in the future, before you take control of the command center, we have already sent a message to the Federation, saying that the spaceship is being captured by the rebel criminals, so don't be delusional about getting the support of the Federation again, and even if you can complete the mission, after you return, what awaits you will be the worst fate." ”
Kennan had to admit that Chen Xi's original approach was very clever. At the outset, all the high-ranking officers who were controlled were wiped out, so that they could not immediately deceive the trust of the other soldiers. But the consequences also exist, without the contact and presence of these people, as a native federation, it will definitely not believe the statements of a group of guys with previous convictions.
After this battle, even if Chen Xi can completely control the spaceship, after losing the trust and support of the Federation, it is conceivable how many people can really obey Chen Xi's arrangement.
There are still many officers in the Space Prison who have not been transformed into brain-controlled worms, and in order to return to the Federation, these people will even rebel later. In the case that he couldn't explain clearly, he put all the blame on the dead Chen Xi.
"Really? That's the stumbling block you're going to put on me in the last days. ”
Chen Xi said disdainfully. Kennan was thinking, and he knew what he was thinking.
However, this guy would definitely not have thought of what kind of ability he has, and anyone who is dissatisfied with him can find out in advance. And from the very beginning, his purpose was not only to control the ship, but to establish his own set of teams, and the results were naturally different depending on the approach.
"I'd say it's a shame that you won't see the results you want to see." Chen Xi said with a pun that he would launch a purge campaign next, and just like he had gained the trust of the new soldiers, being controlled by the Zerg would be an excellent reason, which would be easier to accept and convince than ideological differences.
"It doesn't matter, anyway, I know what your fate will be, sooner or later, you will have to pay it back, the guy who betrayed others will end up being betrayed by others, as long as they still want to go home, you have to worry about whether you will be killed by the bullets behind you at any time, don't think that you can rest easy by killing us." Kenan's tone was full of confidence.
According to his idea, even if Chen Xi is an evolutionary and will return within a month's period, this time is enough for some people to think of some solutions and conspire with reliable candidates.
He knew very well that there would be some ambitious guys in there. The closer Chen Xi gets to the completion of the task, the more people will want to take this earth-shattering credit effortlessly.
Help the Human Federation connect an important ally and turn a war around the survival of humanity as a whole. Change its disadvantages. The immense benefits obtained are enough for this man to become a superhero in the minds of all human beings, gaining great prestige and influence. Using this as capital, it is bound to make the promotion of power soaring, and even become the group of people who dominate the fate of the Human Federation.
Thinking of this, Kennan's depressed mood became a little better, and he said, "I'll go first, but soon, you will be able to follow!" ”
This is the last sentence that Kennan and others have said, and it is almost cool in the dark. Chen Xi first asked people to beat them half to death. Then smoothly make up the knives one by one and get bonus points.
To put it simply, it was a mistake for Kennan and the others to enter this mission, and they probably returned to the center of evolution. You'll regret not looking at the day and time before entering. So much so that he was in the same place with a guy like Chen Xi.
Another five minutes passed. More than 10,000 soldiers who retreated from PEJ-X4 have returned to spacecraft. Due to the urgency of time, they completely abandoned the heavy equipment and weapons on the planet, and only took some of their belongings to board the transport plane bound for the Space Prison.
There is also help from the Protoss.
The plans of those worms are not imperfect. While preventing Chen Xi and others from controlling the command center, they also let the insects destroy the transport planes on the spaceship, intending to isolate the more than 10,000 people on the planet PEJ-X4. Fortunately, the timely arrival of the Dark Templars did not cause serious consequences for this destruction, and many transport planes remained, and later, the Dark Templars who remained on the planet PEJ-X4 drove the Phoenix Fighters to help transport them.
However, the mood of these people escaping death did not last long, on the one hand, the Zhilu Dao Zerg may have follow-up reinforcements coming, and the spacecraft must hurry up and start flying at warp speed to escape from here. On the other hand, of course, it was the bloody campaign carried out by Chen Xi.
The Great Purge.
All the officers and soldiers, including those whom Chen Xi thought might threaten him, were directly isolated and secretly executed in the name of betraying mankind without trial or any chance of justification.
And the evidence that convinces others is the brain-controlled worm people in the metal freezer.
When they saw the red-green disgusting fat worms in their brains and some of the surveillance records recorded by the command center before, even those who felt incredible had to trust this statement. After Chen Xi's verbal incitement and spiritual hints, most of the people became crazy, lost their normal rational thinking, and followed Chen Xi's will, and the effect was much stronger than the beard and beard in World War II.
As for those who can still maintain normal thinking ability, have a relatively clear mind, and have a half-believing attitude, they are very embarrassed, and they are the targets of purge.
These people were all selected by Chen Xi, and then they were collectively eliminated on the grounds of preventing possible chaos.
Chen Xi can only express regret that sometimes people are too smart, or it is not a good practice to maintain self-will at all times, people are stupid and obedient, and it is actually easier to obtain safety guarantees under collective environmental conditions.
However, just as stupid guys always make up the vast majority of humanity. The number of people who maintain a sober will in this part is usually very small, plus those who remain on the spaceship, there are only more than a thousand, and after receiving the box lunch, it does not weaken their combat power much, but after Chen Xi's unification, they become goal-oriented, and the soldiers who are fanatical will be much stronger in actual combat.
And after doing all this, Chen Xi already has a new position, the captain of the Space Prison, although he is still a captain in terms of title, but he has completely mastered the control of the entire spaceship, and no one will affect any of his decisions.
At this time, Chen Xigao sat in the main control seat of the command center that had been sorted out and cleaned, and entered a new coordinate point.
This is a testament to the further trust that the Dark Templars have placed in them.
After he had eliminated most of his rivals, gained the support of everyone without question, and proved his strength and worth, Alfred, the leader of the Dark Templars, finally took him to the Protoss territory with confidence.
In fact, Yarver was very surprised by Chen Xi's performance, based on his long age of seven hundred years old, he had never seen such an example as Chen Xi who knew how to use everything around him to carry out all kinds of small and big examples.
They are also very intelligent, but they are more interested in giving full play to their strengths. Instead of being like Chen Xi, who is good at figuring out people's hearts, influencing others through various actions, taking all aspects of action into account, and then prompting these people to do things that are in line with their own goals.
This made Alfred very happy, but also faintly frightened.
Such an existence is definitely an excellent core to defend against the Zerg in this war, and compared to others, Chen Xi can accomplish what he wants to accomplish with maximum efficiency. However, such a person is absolutely difficult to grasp, if the interests of the Protoss clash with him, the opposite. The consequences can be very severe.
Alfred sighed, "If you put it in that glorious time. We must not worry about such a guy, in the face of absolutely powerful strength, no matter how good the wisdom and means are, it is useless, but now. The decayed Protoss is different from what it used to be. Don't say compare with the Zerg. Even the Human Federation is already far inferior, but alas, under the current conditions. He is the best choice for us. ”
Thinking of this, Alfrede's heart moved, and he said secretly: "It seems that we must establish a closer relationship with him, otherwise once the threat of the Zerg is resolved, and the interests of the two sides conflict, the human race is likely to be the biggest enemy of the reborn Protoss." ”
More than twenty minutes after the Space Prison unfolded the warp engine and flew away, the Zerg reinforcements were late, but there was no trace of human beings in this star field.
The benefits of wormholes are indeed many, as long as the position is fixed, it can be convenient and fast to transport troops, and there is no need to even spend time comparing coordinates each time, once the two-way wormhole is established, it is a completely connected state. However, one point that cannot be ignored is that the wormhole is very low in terms of freedom and flexibility, even worse than the stargate technology of the Protoss, which can connect different stargates, but once the wormhole is fixed, it cannot move.
This makes it difficult for them to catch up. Compared with the Terran's space rapid movement technique, the Zerg's ability in this regard is extremely weak, otherwise they would not have defeated the Federation and wiped out all humans in twenty years under the absolute superiority of troops, which is really a weakness in terms of movement speed, so that their massive forces cannot be quickly deployed, and they can only encroach on the territory of the Human Federation step by step. This is also the reason why the Protoss has been able to survive until now.
Strangely enough, however, these forces seem to be in no hurry, unhurriedly deploying their forces on PEJ-X4, sweeping away all visible creatures and turning the planet into a wormhole covered in fungus.
And in the brainworm that controls the movement of this part of the bugs, a spiritual message is being sent to other regions through the ubiquitous ghostly energy.
"The infected have not been completely eliminated, and after receiving the signal, the nearby brain worms will immediately deploy their troops, and when the time comes, they will permanently eliminate those fleeing Protoss and eliminate our biggest enemies and weaknesses."
Well, Chen Xi did it on purpose. Although the brain-controlled insect people who froze their physiological activities could not send signals, he deliberately left a few brain-controlled insect people in order to cause a big crisis to the Protoss.
Familiar with history, he is well aware of the cruel truth that such a thing as solidarity is only possible in the face of an environment of external threats. Under the conditions of true self-sufficiency, everyone only thinks about themselves. It is for this reason that only the fear of danger can make people take the initiative to do something, whether it is looting, killing, or reforming the system, everything must have an urgent momentum.
If they cause a major crisis to the Protoss, they will take the initiative to seek cooperation, instead of only having more than twenty kittens to contact them as they do now.
Fools know that this situation is very wrong, compared to the vast territory of the Divine Clan that these Dark Templars said before, and their current cautious tentative actions, Chen Xi naturally knows that this is just a small group of Protoss people who are dissatisfied with the status quo and make unauthorized moves, in a vain attempt to bring hope to their own nation with their own risky behavior.
He could see that the Dark Templars were sad, sad, and angry when they spoke about their situation.
A similar concept is probably a group of people in the period before the establishment of the state of Li.
By the standards of later generations, these hot-blooded people are absolutely terrifying and crazy, assassinating, blowing themselves up, and fanatically dedicating themselves to their ideals, which is simply a pleasure. And what he is planning now is to promote the attack of the Eight-Nation Alliance and the outbreak of the Sino-Japanese War, so that the continuous invasion will wake up the remaining group of gods and not face them with a haughty attitude.
If you want to cooperate, okay, show sincerity, Chen Xi is very annoyed by the secretive actions of these gods, he likes to be direct.
However, these dark mentalities did not prevent Chen Xi from appreciating the scenery of the Protoss, compared to the remnants of the crystal buildings on the planet Tifa, the real Protoss territory was much greater and magnificent.
Countless dazzling lights converged into a sea of stars, and far away from them, Chen Xi was fascinated by the picture that shone with brilliant colors.
The blue stars are emitted by the main crystal, and the golden and silver halos on the edges are connected metal parts, which float in the dark and deep starry sky, like a small colored fish swimming under the black curtain, bringing an incomparable shock to all those who see such a scene for the first time.
"Is this heaven? No wonder these guys are called Protoss, it's spectacular! ”
At this moment, almost all human beings have such thoughts in their hearts, and the picture in front of them is really beyond the limit of their imagination, and they are very much looking forward to the next days of staying here.
Of course, as a person who understands, Chen Xi will definitely not discourage their enthusiasm prematurely, and it will be a process of cognitive maturity from full expectation to gradual disgust. (To be continued......)
