Chapter 42: Betrayal

After hours of fighting by the Rangers, the transport fleet was finally full of local refugees. Eight battlecruisers escorted the transport group, and the bugs in the sky were basically no big threat. The evacuation was centered on the metropolis of Orleans and radiated in all directions, and the people in this area were fortunate to be rescued, but the refugees in other places were not so lucky.

Ranger Forward Base Command Center.

"It's all full! It's time for us to get out of this damn place! Frank said.

Renault scolded himself and said, "Damn! The bugs are expanding so fast that we can't afford to have a second chance to evacuate. ”

"I've done my best!" Frank reassured.

Suddenly, the artificial adjutant came with an image, "Commander! I have detected a large number of Zerg infections all over the planet, and they are infecting the life forms on the planet, including the refugees on the planet, and the infected refugees have become unconscious 'alien combatants', and they are instinctively driven by the Zerg to start attacking humans. ”

"Those monsters ......," Renault's eyes stared at the scene. In the picture, those humans have become unrecognizable, their bodies have countless scarlet tentacles, they have become unconscious monsters and driven by the Zerg to start attacking humans, they have become a member of the Zerg.

"It's an infected human!" Frank said solemnly: "They are dead, they have become the killing machines of the Zerg, it won't be long before there will be billions of such Zerg troops on this planet, we really have to go!" ”

"Unbelievable! What a nightmare! Renault stared at the screen and muttered to himself.

Ultimately. The transports began to leave the planet under the cover of the fleet, and the Rangers saved almost a billion people this time. But he didn't have any relief at all, starting from seeing those "alienated combat bodies".

After the transport ships began to leave the planet. The Rangers also assembled and prepared to begin boarding and evacuating.

……

Meanwhile, it was 18:27 local time in New Gettysburg.

The afterglow of the setting sun spreads over the dilapidated city, which looks unusually depressed and lonely, and the war has spread to the core of the New Gettysburg metropolis.

Half an hour earlier, the Zerg had broken through the only resistance force in New Gettysburg. The forward base they had established in Croatia had fallen, and their mission could be said to have been successfully completed, but until now no transport plane had come to pick them up, so they had no choice but to move to the core city of New Gettysburg, which would also be their Zuihou position, before the fall of this position. If there is no transport plane to pick them up, there is only one outcome waiting for them.

The new Gettysburg, poured by the sunset, is no longer as prosperous as it once was, the metropolis is in shambles, before the Zerg invasion, it was already in chaos, riots, crimes, murders and arsons were everywhere, the government building had been stormed by mobs, important people had long since left here, and order was gone.

And now. The invasion of the Zerg has undoubtedly made this depressed city worse again, with alien dragons hovering in the sky, the city is flooded with yellow sand, and the sky is full of dust. The city became dilapidated, and the streets were filled with wasteland.

Fierce winds carried dust and sand through the city, and the roads were flooded with wasteland and yellow sand.

An iron sign fell to the ground. The wind blew away the yellow sand that had been hidden on the sign, and there were several visible bullet holes in it. A few words are prominently engraved on the sign: "Welcome to New Gettysburg"

Knock knock knock!!

Footsteps suddenly appeared, but no one was visible. Immediately after, "Bell! There was a sound of steel clattering, and the sign was struck by something. A faint ripple swept from here, and under a broken corner of the wall ten meters ahead, a white glow suddenly flashed, and a ghost agent withdrew from the stealth mode, and countless small white hexagons flashed on his body, this ghost agent was Sarah? Kelly Root.

Immediately after exiting stealth mode, she shrank under the dilapidated corner, and with one hand and two fingers on her ear, she immediately began to communicate: "I'm Kelly Gen!" We've suppressed the Protoss, but there's still a wave of Zerg approaching here, and we need to evacuate immediately! As she spoke, she poked her head out to see what was going on around her. She is in a very bad situation now, under the impact of the Zerg army, she has been separated from the large army, and she herself does not know where it is, but she can judge that the location is in the territory of the New Gettysburg metropolis.

Planet's high orbit periphery. Captain's room of the battlecruiser "Hyperion".

Mengsk stood quietly by the windowsill, his hands always wearing a pair of gloves, an old-fashioned pocket watch dancing hands, just now he received a request from Kellygan to evacuate.

"Revoke that order, we're leaving!" Mengsk suddenly covered his pocket watch and said. His ruthless order was immediately sent to every unit of the "Sons of Keha", including the Rangers.

"What? You don't want to leave them behind, do you? Renault received this order, and what Mengsk did was simply unbelievable.

In the same way, when Frank heard the news, he couldn't help but be in a daze, no one knew what he was thinking, although he was calm after receiving the news, but there was self-blame and struggle in the depths of his eyes.

Ignoring Renault's questioning directly, Mengsk issued an order in a cold and unquestioning tone: "All personnel obey my orders, and all ships are ready to leave Tasannis!" ”

In the meantime, Kelly Root has already started a firefight with the bugs. The jumping insects sprinted towards her with a roaring sound, and there were only a few jumping insects, which Kellygen dealt with with very easily.

Shout!

Suddenly, a stinging snake spine needle with a strong corrosive effect pierced the void and attacked, followed by a stinging snake on the opposite side of the brick from the ground, and continued to spray the spine needle. Ridge by needle, Kelly Root had to find cover to protect herself, she bent down and raised the gun in her hand to carry out a blind sweep, which was not the case, although there was a corner of the wall blocking her view, but it could not block her psychic perspective, only to see her raise her gun and fire. Soon, the spinal needles stopped flying, and it seemed that the stinging snakes had been killed by her.

Suddenly, a wall in front of her collapsed, and a stinging snake smashed through the wall, and the stinging snake splattered in all directions, and the stinging snake turned abruptly, its scarlet eyes locked on Kelly Root, only to see it open its fangs and make a "hissing" sound, and the hideous row of canine teeth was full of acidic corrosive saliva. Just as it was about to spray the spine needle, Kelly Root struck first.

Bang bang bang!!

The first shot shattered a row of its jaws, the second through its head, and the third through its neck.

Kellygen kept pulling the trigger, but the bullets were gone.

The serpent let out a whining sound and eventually crashed to the ground. After seeing the stinging snake fall, Kelly Gen secretly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, but her chest was still rising and falling, and her heart could not be calm.

It's been a while since she sent out her request to evacuate, but she still hasn't received any response, and after confirming that there is no threat for the time being, she started communicating again.

"Uh...... Buddies! Isn't it time to retreat? ”

Kellygan asked in a puzzled tone.

……

"Fuck your uncle's Arcturus! Please don't do that! ”

On the other side of the communicator, Renault was already yelling at Mengsk. Arcturus didn't pay the slightest heed to Renault's bad words.

"It's already decided." Mengsk didn't pay attention to him, "Helmsman! Send a signal and let the ship take us off orbit! Immediately! With that, he left the ledge, not paying attention to the planet.

Kelly Gen's voice rang out over the communicator, "Commander? Jim? Frank??? ”

But no one responded to her.

"What the hell is going on?" She did not understand the weishenme, and no one responded to her.

Suddenly, a touch of unease began to come to her heart, she subconsciously terminated the contact, she looked around, she couldn't see the worm, but an inexplicable horror suppression was shrouded in her heart, her intuition never deceived her, her keen intuition told her that she was facing an inescapable threat of death. Her breathing was getting shorter and shorter, something she had never seen before. He couldn't help but put on his goggles to expand his vision, alternating between red and blue.

After putting on the goggles, she saw countless insects coming like a tide, and she changed directions, still an endless number of insects. She knew that she was surrounded by bugs, and she also knew that it was impossible for her to escape from so many bugs, and even if she did, she would be chased by the bugs again, and in the end she would not be able to escape the fate of death.

She slowly took off her goggles, her clear eyes revealing confusion and hidden sadness and despair.

She couldn't help but close her eyes, and a deep sense of powerlessness spread throughout her body.

The gun in his hand was as heavy as tens of millions of pounds of steel.

Boom!

Shotshotguns fall from the palm of your hand. The sound of hitting the ground was so heavy, and from the moment the gun landed, it also meant that she had given up the idea of survival.

weishenme？

She kept asking herself in her heart, weishenme, no one came to answer? Weishenme is going to abandon us?

She looked up at the sky, but she couldn't see any clouds, the sky was already shrouded in endless black shadows, and the group of dragons in the dusk seemed to be bats that had come out to search for food, they were hovering in the sky, and now they had found food.

She looked up at the sky motionless, her eyes slowly closed, the earth trembled like an earthquake, and the insects on the ground rushed towards her like a tide.

……

"Sarah! How are you? Damn, the signal is interrupted and cannot be contacted! ”

"I'm going to find her! Transport! ”

Renault roared in the Orleans base.
