Chapter 9: The Tragedy

Ten kilometers away from the "Aquilonian Plain", on the slope of yellow sand, Mar. Sarah's rare calm wind was blowing, and footprints suddenly appeared on the empty yellow sandy ground. The surface was empty, and the quiet surroundings squeezed the sand with footprints until the last footprint appeared at the top of a slope.

In the light of the sun, the void on the surface of the sand is slightly distorted with almost invisibility, and there is only one answer to the reason for this, something hidden in the void and unnoticed.

At the top of the slope, you can hear the sound of explosions in the distance, and you can also see the smoke of gunpowder in the distant sky

The sound of "snort" and footprints reappeared, and the footprints were moving downward, towards the point of the explosion......

The site of the old mine "Aquilonian Plain".

"Open the hatch! Open the damn door! Hear me! You stinky **! ”

I saw two embarrassed adult men banging on the closed door of the transport ship like crazy, their desperate eyes, sweat and dirt mixed with the surface of their skin, they were screaming heartbreakingly at the camera next to the hatch, one was scolding and the other was begging bitterly.

"Ah~~~"

Dozens of jumping insects pounced, and the two men were instantly dragged into the swarm, and in less than two seconds, the screams came to an abrupt end.

"Oh~~~ No! No! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! No!!! ”

The female pilot on the head of the transport ship looked at the picture of the two men being dismembered in an instant, blood splashed everywhere, arteries ruptured, blood soared in the air and fell, and the internal organs stained with blood were even thrown into the air, which was shocking. The female pilot at the bow of the cabin covered her mouth with her hands and tried to make her uncontrollable mouth scream, and she was extremely frightened, she burst into tears, and shook her head as she watched the horrific scene on the camera.

At that moment, a jumping insect swooped down on the transparent glass at the bow of the cabin. With its hideous fangs and terrifying body, it is the embodiment of the demons of hell. The jumping worm was like a mad beast, and the bone sickle on its back pierced wildly through the glass, and then two more worms jumped up.

The glass in the bow of the hatch looked so fragile under the sharp bone sickle of the insects that it was only a matter of seconds for the intact glass to shatter abruptly, and one by one the insects jumped onto the ship and poured into the hull

The bugs were attacking every part of the transport, and civilians who had just arrived on the ground would never have imagined that there would be terrifying alien creatures here. The ruins of the old mines had no terrain or weapons to defend themselves on, except for the transport ships they had come along.

However. It was only a matter of time before such a transport ship, unarmed and made of ordinary materials, was torn apart by the claws of insects. There was little suspense about what happened next, with the terrifying cries of humans spreading through the ship, and the roaring and biting of bugs

In less than six minutes since the bug appeared, nearly half of the civilians of the 800 members had died tragically under the claws and fangs of the bugs, and the survivors hid in panic in the transport ship, even though the nightmarish reality was about to spread to the inside of the hull, the fragile transport ship could not bring any help to their safety at all, but died faster.

When a large number of insect swarms broke through the glass cabins of the ship's hull and poured inside. More than a dozen stupid bugs were still attacking the ship's hatch, and the sharp bone sickles kept piercing holes in the metal hatch.

Shout! Shout! Shout!

The bullets whizzed, and a few unfortunate jumping insects on the side were the first to be shot, and the insects let out a screaming wail. Crashed to the ground. Immediately afterward, a torrent of gunfire and bullets poured in, and several insects that were attacking the hatch fiercely were attracted by the sound, and their crimson eyes looked at the source of the sound. The next moment, they gave up attacking the hatch and pounced frantically after a roar. Bugs from outside the ship attacked it.

"Quick! Go up! ”

A medium-sized mobile infantry force of about 390 men was pressing forward, led by the commander of Jim. Renault.

The sound of gunfire here immediately attracted the swarm army, and they frantically pounced on the rangers. Fortunately, the scale of the insects is not large, for their group of veterans who have faced millions of insects, less than 2,000 insects are not enough at all, and many jumping insects died on the way to charge.

The battle lasted less than 10 minutes before it ended, and the dense gunfire gradually died down, with the occasional few gunshots at the scene, and the remaining bugs were cleaned up one by one.

Although the number of insects was less than two thousand, the corpses of humans and insects on the ground were still shocking, the surface was stained red, and the blood spilled from the corpses was dried in less than a minute, leaving a bloody yellow sand on the ground.

"Give me a shot for each one, and don't miss anything." Frank stepped on the head of the jumping insect corpse and looked around at the ground littered with insect corpses.

Jim in Marine Armor. Renault came on a stroll.

"How's it going?" Frank looked at the other person.

Renault shook his head and said, "Not a single living mouth!" ”

"All dead?" Frank asked again.

"All!" Renault nodded affirmatively.

Frank was silent for a moment, then scanned the entire environment with his goggles on, and as he said, there was not a single living creature signal.

"Damn it!" Frank put his hands on his waist and turned his head to look around.

"What a hell of a life! How can there be bugs on this planet? Renault was puzzled.

"It may have been left over from before the invasion, it is true that the Protoss purified the entire planet, but the vitality of the insects is tenacious and terrifying, you know, it is likely that some of the insects have burrowed into the ground to avoid the flames of the Protoss." Frank said.

"This is really sad news." Renault was taken aback after thinking about it, and said, "No! We've got to hurry back to the backwater base and strengthen the base's defenses, damn it! ”

"You lead the team back to the base first, leave me a plane, I'm going to take a closer look here, I doubt if there are alien nests in the old mine ruins." Frank said.

"Then be careful." Renaud nodded, stopped talking nonsense, and turned on the public screen communicator as he walked: "Ranger retreat!" ”

With the Rangers withdrawing, the mine ruins fell silent, corpses strewn across the ground and the pungent smell of blood made the otherwise clear day feel unusually eerie, and the smell of death enveloped the space.

Frank walked to the transport ship with the corpse on the ground, the ship was infested and dilapidated by bugs, and the power system inside the ship had collapsed, and it was pitch black from the entrance.

Just after Frank entered the inside of the ship, another being hidden in the void came here silently, and headed towards the ship, in the face of the local tragedy, she did not have any emotional fluctuations, she knew that her target would not die because of this, because she knew that the target's strange ability could avoid this disaster, and the target was the only way to live!

Frank walked on the passage, and from time to time lightning sparks erupted inside the pitch-black hull, and under the fleeting faint light provided by the electric sparks, the chaotic scene inside Frank's eyes came into view, whether it was on the ground or on the walls, there was blood everywhere, and the cold hull had a pungent and rich smell of blood, which was disgusting. A human corpse and a small number of Zerg corpses lay on the metal floor, suddenly appearing in the eyes of a person in a fleeting light, which was chilling, there was not a single intact human corpse here, and stumps and severed arms could be seen almost everywhere.

There was a slight stickiness on the metal floor, and Frank knew even if he didn't look at it that the stickiness under the soles of his shoes must be blood. Inside the hull there was nothing but the sound of electric sparks.

Frank, who had been walking, suddenly stopped, his gaze focused on a dark direction. He slowly raised his right hand and clenched his fist slightly, and a dazzling energy blade flashed in an instant, and the steady light emitted by the blade illuminated the dark corner of this corner.

The energy sound wave unique to the blade was emitting a low, uninterrupted sound, Frank looked at the corner in front of him, stared for a long time, no one knew what he was thinking, in his sight, this corner was empty, but for some reason, he had a strange feeling, this corner was obviously nothing, but it seemed that something was in it.

The little boy Colin miraculously escaped the catastrophe again, he crouched in the corner and curled up his small body, motionless. Fahi entered that strange sculptural state again, and his body seemed to be drained of his soul, motionless.

Frank was silent, his deep eyes staring at the empty corner in front of him. The energy blade was getting closer and closer to Colin's body.

10 cm, 9 cm, 7 cm

At the moment when the light blade was about to touch Colin's skin, the light blade suddenly disappeared, without any warning, Frank immediately entered an invisible state, and in the pitch-black hull, even the flash of lightning could not find his shadow, and he disappeared into the void.

As a powerful ghost carrier, and with an incomparably powerful keen intuition that also matched it, Frank sensed a powerful life wave approaching here. He seemed to smell the smell of the same kind, and his keen intuition told him that this life was also a ghost energy carrier, and it was a rare existence with a high PSI value, and the other party was well hidden, but it still did not escape his sense, and he was getting closer and closer to the other party.

Suddenly, she also stopped, and she seemed to feel something.

Quiet, quiet and terrifying, a strange tension suddenly spread inside the dark and gloomy hull.
