Chapter 417: Uncle Z

The endless sea of insects surged in our direction like a living sludge, rolling layers of purple-black waves surging higher and higher, and our ears were filled with the endless roars of insects and the friction of carapaces, the jumping insects with chelicerae like small mammoths, the cockroaches with huge carapaces and thick shells, and all kinds of other insects that had mutated to strange shapes, and they seemed to have no fear at all. In the face of the tragic sight of thousands of people of the same clan being turned into carrion alive due to some strange and inexplicable strength, they are not afraid at all, and they are scrambling to launch a suicidal charge against us, Lilina is still pale and held in my arms, putting aside the pile of identities, she is just an ordinary girl, although she has experienced the time travel, although she has experienced the ravages of the undead in Azeroth, but presumably she has never faced such a Shura field with internal organs and flesh and blood, so she didn't even realize that she was being held by my princess, Instead, she clung to my collar like a real little girl and curled her head in my arms as much as she could.

However, fear is fear, the surging life energy around us has not diminished in the slightest, and Lilina has done a pretty good job in this, no matter how uncomfortable she is, she has not forgotten her mission—although now it seems that under Vega's autumn wind sweeping attack and shallow and ruthless time, we don't have to worry about getting hurt or anything like that.

These Zerg are simply too vulnerable in the face of the leader-level Xiling Apostles, and sometimes the theory of quantity over quality also needs an upper limit.

"Thunder Cut"

Vega suddenly shouted in the charge, and the ship slashing knife in her hand instantly floated with a blue-white dazzling electric light, and then the more than two-meter-long ship slashing knife suddenly swung into an afterimage, and the half-moon-shaped vacuum blade and bright arc suddenly extended nearly half a kilometer away, cutting a large piece of insects in front of her into two pieces, she then jumped high, and the two-ton steel body of the armored scorpion smashed heavily on the back of a thunder beast that dared to swing its chelicerae at her, and the six mechanical arthropods pierced into the back armor of the thunder beast, in the blood plasma splash, Vega's twin blades took less than a millisecond to reduce the enemies beneath him into three neat pieces.

I was able to easily prop up the energy shield that could protect everyone, and I even had the strength to watch the bone stinging needles fired by the stinging snake inspire small concentric circles in the chaos, the power of this attack I just tried with my hands curiously, its kinetic energy is about the same as a human anti-tank missile, and it can easily penetrate human-made power armor or rely on numbers to take out the plasma shield of the Protoss, but for us, it is about the equivalent of a non-threatening target......

I think that the strength of my energy shield is enough for all the stinging snakes present to spray to the lack of calcium without the slightest damage, as long as there is still energy in this world, I am definitely infinitely bluer than the sun well.

"I said, you're just going to play Z like this?"

I looked down, and it turned out that it was Lilina who had finally poked her head out, and although her face was still ugly, she seemed to have almost recovered.

Anyway, this girl hasn't vomited on my chest once, right?

Fortunately, a pure god-made creature like Lilina should not have such a ** defect, the little girl just had a bitter face, but she still stared at me from the bottom up with her big spiritual eyes, and her face was full of righteous condemnation of someone's lack of work.

"Anyway, the two of them will be enough to get all the bugs here."

I pouted my lips indifferently, I won't say how strong Vega's melee ability is, even with the most basic fighting, she can cut over 100,000 jumping insects without breathing and ensure that her hairstyle is not messy, and looking at the current arc of Scorpion Sister's body, I have no doubt that she can play N in and N out in this sea of worms.

The rest is shallow...... Do you need to say more than that? If she was willing, she could even make these tens of millions of Zerg commit suicide as long as she stood still in the Time Realm, and I don't believe that the bodies of carbon-based creatures can evolve to the point of fighting against time

Do you still need me to make a move?

"What a lazy ......," Lilina muttered to herself, nestled in my arms, "isn't this the time when you big men have the opportunity to deceive your girls?" You're such a freak......"

"What?" Because the movement of the swarm around me was so loud, I only heard Lilina muttering something, but I didn't know what the other party was saying.

"It's okay...... Harem Male ......"

How did I mess with her?

The distance of tens of kilometers did not take long for us to cross easily under our almost supersonic charge, and the fragile Zerg was completely powerless to fight back under the attack of the leader-level apostles, and the Protos building that Vega was talking about was already close at hand, and I couldn't see its purpose, but based on the ornate multi-storey tower-like shape and the two tall sculptures made of crystal and mystical alloy at the main entrance of the building, it should be a ceremonial temple or something, as Vega said.

The "Protoss" building that emitted a blue halo was surrounded by an extremely strong arcane shield, and large arcs of electricity continued to splash out from the shield, burning the nearby Zerg to ashes like a whirling blade, this high-end ability to merge two completely different systems of magic into one skill release may take a lifetime for a human mage to study, but it is a necessary skill for ravens: their quantum computing core simulates more than a dozen sets of thoughts at the same time is stress-free.

But in my opinion, although the bugs can't get even half a step closer to here due to the existence of the arcane shield, it is an indisputable fact that the warriors stationed here have fallen into a disadvantage, and millions of Zerg are densely gathered in this almost vast and boundless crypt, blocking every inch of space here from the sky to the ground, hundreds of soldiers of the landing force, most of them are ordinary Hyling soldiers and human mages from Azeroth, such combat power may be enough for exploration troops, But it is absolutely impossible to break through under the siege of tens of millions of insects.

But then again, since it can't break through...... How did they get in, bastard

"The Spirit of the Ancestors Blessed the Divine Messenger Came"

As we stormed our way into the safe zone formed by the arcane shield, a minotaur shaman who was busy smashing titanium totems into the ground with a power hammer immediately pulled up his mask in excitement, and the bull's nose was filled with white air - I have to be glad that the oxygen environment of the power armor made by Xiling is bound to the helmet by an energy barrier, otherwise this Minotaur would have become the first Azeroth to suffocate on an alien planet.

"What the hell is going on? Are the other fighters here? ”

I nodded to Uncle Minotaur and helped him turn the hammer to "HIGH" mode, and then asked a Commander of Hiling who was directing his soldiers to set up an antiproton battery.

The nameless commander gave a standard military salute and reported to me in a soldier's steely voice: "Your Majesty's Third Raven Squad, the Seventeenth Marine Corps, and the Nineteenth Marine Corps are all assembled here, and we have been sent directly to the vicinity of this strange Protos Temple due to a misteleportation, this place has been surrounded by Zerg layers when we arrived, and a small group of Protos warriors are resisting with the energy field of the temple itself, our communication with the outside world has been cut off, and we have been fighting here for an hour, Now that the reserve energy of the marines is sufficient, the magic troops are mildly fatigued, and the Raven 003 commander has arranged a stable shield magic array, which can persist in fighting for more than twenty-four hours and report to the end."

I looked around briefly, the building behind us probably covers an area of several thousand square meters, not a large hall, the overall shape is a pentagonal prism, divided into three layers, the walls are inlaid with a large number of blue crystals that emit a halo, the curved doors and pillars have a fairly obvious Protos style, the arcane shield arranged by Raven 003 completely envelops the entire building, and the surrounding half a kilometer has become a safe area without a single bug, However, the Zerg outside the shield are still launching suicide attacks on the temple regardless of casualties.

"What about the Protos?" I asked curiously, "Isn't she dead?" They don't have the BT-level individual combat power of the Xiling Warriors.

"Those Protos were badly damaged, and when we entered the battle, there were only a dozen people left on the other side who were still standing, and now they are placed in the temple and treated by the Blood Elf Priest, but according to those spellcasters, the spiritual energy of the Protos will interfere with the magic element, and the regular healing magic will not have much effect on them."

I nodded, and ordered Vega to lead the scorpion soldiers here to strengthen the defense, and then led Asa and Lilina into the temple of Protos to visit the hapless "Protoss" warriors.

The last time I had a brief conversation with the Protos commander named Duhan, this was my first official contact with the Protos race, and I didn't expect that we would meet in this situation.

After entering from the gate of the temple, there is a vast hall directly, the walls of the hall are inlaid with countless oval ice blue crystals, constantly emitting a faint light, making the whole hall look very bright, there is no pillar in the space of thousands of square meters, only the golden alloy wall that slightly shows the arc "grows" from the ground that is integrated, supporting the dome full of mysterious words above our heads, and there is a very weak energy field floating in the whole hall, I suspect it's Protos' psychic power spreading out in all directions—they come from a few blue-skinned Draes sitting in the middle of the hall, meditating with their eyes closed...... Uh, Protos.

No matter how many times you have seen it, those tentacles on the chin of the Protos male ...... The tentacles are still full of complaints

I could clearly feel that more than a dozen faint spiritual powers had been concentrated on me, but in the end, there was only a tall "Protoss" wearing a dark and old cloak, and even his face was hidden under a mask, revealing only a pair of glittering eyes.

Why does this look feel so familiar?

"Then you are the emperor and oracle of these mysterious and powerful warriors," said the man who was as tall as two Pandoras stacked on top of each other (should I use Pandora's height as a common unit of measurement?). "Perhaps fate has led us to meet in this sacred place of our ancestors, strange friend, I have heard of your coming. ”

"Oh," I nodded, "then it's not much nonsense, I'm the Emperor of the Xiling Empire, Jun Chen, my warriors have consolidated the defenses here, and now I want to know what happened to Lu Dao - well, and your name." ”

"You can call me Zeratul," the tall Protos man in front of him said in astonishment, he was really the famous Uncle Z, why did he look so familiar

However, Uncle Z, who has always appeared as a lone ranger, would lead his people to appear in this pimple star mine where birds don't, which makes me very curious: What are they doing here?

"I heard many days ago that a mysterious civilization similar to humans had arrived in this sector and waged war against the Zerg," Zeratul continued in a low tone, "For this reason, I came to investigate, only to find this long-forgotten Protos Sanctuary, I killed the mother worm, and then went deep into the planet's underground with my followers...... We found this sacred temple, but after activating the temple, almost all the remaining zerg on the entire planet were attracted to it by the energy it emitted, and we were trapped by this number, and we fought fiercely for days, exhausted, and then those powerful mysterious warriors suddenly appeared around the temple and built a strong defense, they saved my people from destruction, and declared that the most powerful emperor in the universe would solve the plight here, and this is what happened. ”

Hearing this, I was in awe of Uncle Z.

Tens of millions of Zerg, he actually led so many Templars to resist in this temple for several days

This combat power is almost comparable to that of ordinary emperors

What I admire even more is that he had a chance to leave - yes, as Protos's most powerful assassin, his permanent stealth and various shadow teleportation skills allowed this powerful "Protoss" warrior to easily break away from this crypt, but he didn't leave, just so as not to abandon his followers

In the following few sentences, I finally figured out why our warriors would all be concentrated in this place: this Protos temple preserves an ancient "artifact", which has been emitting energy fluctuations since it was accidentally activated by Zeratul, although the technological level of the Protos clan cannot be compared with the Xiling Empire, but they are at least qualified to talk to the empire in the field of science and technology (especially now that the technology tree still has most of the Xiling Empire), This mysterious artifact interfered with the spatial positioning systems of the three squads, and when the leader of the latter found that the contact had been lost and planned to temporarily teleport back to the surface through space, he was teleported to this ghost place because he misjudged the coordinates.

Of course, it may also have something to do with the carelessness of the three team leaders themselves, who didn't expect that the teleporter they had installed in their bodies since birth would be disturbed, so they didn't notice the slightest error in the spatial coordinates.

After listening to Zeratul's description, I naturally became very interested in the "artifact", but it seems that Zeratul attaches great importance to the treasure that belongs to Protos, at least, he still does not have much trust in a strange "emperor" like me, even if my warrior is helping him to guard this temple, I understand this.

"The wounds of these fighters are very serious."

When I asked Zeratul about them, he said in a heavy tone, and led me to the dozen or so Templars who were sitting and meditating.

"They don't have enough medical treatment, they can only use meditation to suppress their pain, and the magical power of these soldiers of yours called 'priests' can also greatly relieve the pain of being corrupted by the poison of the Zerg, but these warriors, their souls have returned to Shakuras, I wish them peace and ...... all the way."

Zeratul was referring to the bodies of more than a dozen Protos' warriors lying quietly in a corner of the temple.

"Shakulas is a few light years away from here," Lilina shrugged and walked forward, "even if you Protos souls are dual-core, you won't be able to run that speed. ”

Lilina said this, and then slowly raised her hands in Zeratul's confused gaze, a serene expression like a virgin appeared on her face, and a green light gradually filled the hall.

"Therefore, if you don't want to run away and die halfway, all the souls will obediently return to your shell for me, and in the name of the goddess of love, I will get up and work for the old lady."

Do you dare to give me a little more harshness?

However, Zeratul did not bother to express surprise or protest at Lilina's energetic remarks at the moment, because some powerful energy beyond his knowledge was gradually converging, and then turning into a huge pillar of green light, accompanied by a faint soft song that descended on the fallen Protos warriors.

"Spectral energy can resist magic, but no one can refuse the will of the goddess."

Lilina finished her handsome performance, maintaining the posture of floating in mid-air when she had just cast the spell, and proudly invited me to praise.

Cut, the sad guy who floats in the sky and is half a head lower than me.

"What am I witnessing with Shakulas on it? The Return of Life"

Zeratul cried out in shock, for the Protos warriors, who had been cold corpses a second ago, had now sat up like the Troublemakers, and looked around with a confused expression, and by the familiar aura that had resurfaced, Zeratul could completely rule out the possibility that the corpses of these compatriots were under some kind of control.

"Life is precious, so thank you for your patronage of this settlement of 68,880 yuan~~~"

Lilina continued to carry forward her unreliable spirit, and came to Zeratu with a wicked smile, making Uncle Z, who had always been calm, show an extremely embarrassed expression.

(The monthly pass is showing a weak trend, don't let me fall off)
