Chapter 409: Welcome?
Chapter 409 Welcome?
"We're going to build a city here"
This is the declaration of ambition of the "Imperial Admiral" after he was smoothly inserted into the ground and formed a big cross that stood on top of the starship, swallowing thousands of miles like a tiger.
As a result, the entire 100-kilometer-class starship collapsed.
The hull of the huge Doji shattered in an instant, divided into complex building parts in the form of a demarcated form, and the countless miniature engines attached to it propelled down to the ground, assisted by thousands of "builders" who had long been ready, began to assemble themselves into a large-scale war factory and imperial dockyard, and a large number of military modules were already integrated in our starship, which almost liberated more than eighty percent of the computing power of the Xiling hosts, Now the only thing they have to think about is how to expand the silvery white ground around them as quickly as possible, and do their best to enclosure for me in the shortest time possible.
The majestic starship was like a collapsing mountain, raining down to the ground in a series of golden flashes and mechanical friction sounds, and then spread out into a highly developed military town, and the ecological balls that were originally placed in the arms of the "Imperial Admiral" landed directly in the center of the city, forming two dotted green independent towns, and the deafening roar accompanied by the rapid disintegration of the "Imperial Admiral" has never stopped, and at the same time, the huge city under our feet has begun to take shape.
This is only a part, the other motherships that followed us landed also hovered to a predetermined altitude at this moment, directly entered the disintegration process in mid-air, expanded and transformed into various functional buildings, and then landed accurately to the micron in the planned open space of the city below.
The whole process lasted less than 20 minutes, a radius of 300 kilometers, the whole is in the shape of a six-pointed star, the layout is reasonable, the structure is complex and fully has the ability to see the modern tourist ...... Well, the city is "smeared" on the surface of a planet that has just experienced a catastrophe.
In the center of the city, the huge warship that once stood proudly has completely disappeared, and only a blue crystal tower thousands of meters high with a mysterious halo floats there, and hundreds of projections are suspended around the crystal tower, on which Pandora's recruitment advertisements are played on a loop.
…… That militaristic dead girl to the bone
But compared to these iron-blooded recruitment advertisements, the King of Fighters cutscenes interspersed in it are even more infuriating, bastard
You crazy gamer, choose Athena Asamiya for me, idiot...... Uh, oops, that's a leak.
As the Imperial Admiral decomposes into the form of a war town, the platform beneath our feet continues to descend, and at this moment is the silver-white terrace at the top of the blue crystal tower, from which we can clearly see the magnificent scene of the eruption of magma in the distant earth outside the energy shield.
Desperately hypnotized himself for a long time, ignoring Liana jumping on the floating screen twenty meters in front of him, and trying to forget the "ready?go!!" in his ear. After that, I patted Renault, who had become a sculpture next to me, on the shoulder: "Okay, now we have the city - if you don't keep up, I'm afraid you'll have to find a way to jump yourself." ”
With that, I waved my hand in the air: "Taxi"
A transport boat that was about to fly over to meet us almost fell off the spot.
Renault, who was awakened by my slap, blinked, then touched Tyx, who had dropped his cigar in his collar again and hadn't noticed it yet: "I said, old man, I think we've really met someone this time." ”
Tyx had a cigarette in his neck (fortunately or unfortunately, his cigar was finally lit this time.) ), muttered with a glazed gaze: "I have a hunch...... The bugs are going to be bad luck soon...... Jimmy, if I were you, I should swear allegiance to these bigwigs now, this would definitely be a good opportunity to make a fortune......"
Renault shrugged his shoulders and stepped forward: "When the army is finished, we will leave immediately, your suggestion sounds good, but unfortunately I don't think we have the life to play that." ”
"How? The city? ”
Walking down the wide, neat streets of the city center, I looked around proudly and asked the bearded uncle next to me.
That's right, this is a show-off sticker, how to drop
The bearded uncle, who smelled of alcohol, had already seen and turned a deaf ear to my questions, just desperately looking around, trying to find anything he could understand, such as a street lamp or something......
Now this is no longer the flagship of the "Imperial General", but should be called the "General's City", of course, it is not possible to wander around the city, but only a large number of heavily armed Imperial soldiers and agile individual vehicles, although it is called a military fortress type of city, there is not much of a depressing and rigid atmosphere here, from this point of view, the work of the bubble is still in place.
The disintegrated flagship and other motherships form the bulk of the city, and the builders under the direct control of one of the Shining mainframes in the Hiling Brood in the heart of the city have now begun to explore the entire area beyond the Silver Earth Energy Shield, where they will build countless war factories and pervade Pandora's militaristic dreams - the first time I've fully indulged that girl's crazy war plan.
After knowing that this star region is entrenched in the "StarCraft" world, we have aroused vigilance, although we occupy an absolute advantage in technology and personal strength, but the number of the Zerg in hundreds of millions and the strength of its evolution to be able to carry out interstellar warfare determine that they are definitely not the enemies who can crush the past before, to take the simplest example, is the planet under our feet, that brain worm can survive in the astral deflagration and ghost energy radiation of EOP-03, Although a considerable part of this is due to the fact that it mobilized a large number of low-level zergs to form a meat shield for itself at the last moment, it is undeniable that it is a pity that this guy does not heed Athena's call to transform into a Saint Seiya.
Pandora and Viska went to solve the brain worm by themselves, which was not a difficult task, firstly, although they had a certain ability to think and occupied the top position in the Zerg, the combat effectiveness of the brain worm itself was not very good, and secondly, it was ...... The two Leader-level Hiling Apostles were throwing floating cannons all over the sky, and I really couldn't think of any other force that could survive this kind of attack than the legendary Queen of Blades.
Looking at the unfinished faces of the two little ones when they came back, I knew how this one-sided torture ended lightly.
However, the two little girls still brought back a piece of news that people cared about - strictly speaking, it was the news that Pandora brought back, although she was also a hot-blooded war maniac, Pandora still had a little military acumen than her crazy sister.
The brain worm had already begun to evolve before it was destroyed.
It is trying to adapt to the sudden heat of the planet and the deadly spectral radiation in the air around it, and has already created a "test sample" worm that can survive in magma for a short time, although it is unlikely that it will evolve a steel skeleton that can be at ease in the spectral radiation, but the exaggerated mutation and adaptability are enough to warn us.
"Now the Queen of Blades should have known about your arrival," Walking through the streets of General City, Renault suddenly reminded me, "Although I still don't understand how strong your strength is, don't underestimate the Zerg, they are definitely the most dangerous creatures in this universe, and the Zerg you have eliminated today can even be negligible......"
"I know," I shrugged, my expression still relaxed, "so we're rapidly expanding our strength, like— look at that. ”
Following my fingers, Renault saw a freshly assembled Imperial barracks lined up with Chilling GIs, each armed to the teeth, with a single hand cannon thicker than their waist.
Despite not being as tall as the human Power Armor, you have to admit that these Hiling GIs were born to cry at night.
Renault stared blankly at the soldiers who were spitting out soldiers in the barracks that had just been a large piece of metal, and only after a long time did he tremble and said, "It seems...... You guys really are the nemesis of the Zerg in some ways...... Uh, what's that, please? ”
I followed Renault's finger and looked curiously, then instantly pale and pounded the ground.
If the huge thing in front of me had developed a little better, it would have been a Ferris wheel......
Tyx scratched his face, "Is that a work of art unique to your race?" Urban sculpture or something? ”
Before I could reply, a small white figure rushed over from far and near like a gust of wind, accompanied by a series of random syllables that no one could understand.
"Uh-huh"
Little Bubble, dressed in a white princess dress, hung herself around my neck with great skill, and then happily freed up a little finger to point at the huge twisted oval mechanism in the distance, and the whole person shook and shook with great excitement, and it was obvious that the little one was very proud of his proud work.
At least one thing I'm sure of is that the evolutionary parent Xiling host does possess great creativity.
Originally, I didn't plan to bring the little bubble this time, after all, going millions of light years away to destroy the Zerg, such a thing doesn't sound very safe, but I have promised the little guy that I will not leave her at home next time, and under the great fear of my daughter's crying, I still reluctantly chose to surrender - but under the protection of millions of emperors, no one must be able to hurt this little princess, right?
"Is this your wife?"
Renault, who had seen the bubble side on the holographic projection, asked dumbfounded, such a little angel suddenly flew out of such an iron-blooded alien base, which was already quite weird, and what was even more strange was that this little angel was actually the one who threatened to throw himself into the reactor not long ago......
"My daughter." I smiled awkwardly and began to scramble to try to tear the bubble off.
I was wrestling with the little koala bubbles on my side, and Lilina staggered around, and she was enthusiastically greening the whole city, and the pines and cypresses were everywhere she passed, and the plants and trees were full of greenery, and the superalloy ground was strangely covered with blooming flowers, and the whole person was like a walking pot of high-efficiency compound fertilizer—though she claimed that it was the footsteps of the spring fairy.
"How's Yo Boss? Would you like to have a Central Park here? I've asked Bubbles to help design the playground."
Lilina snorted at me regardless of the occasion.
I was embarrassed again, turned my head and smirked: "I...... Sister ......"
Tex and Renault were stunned for a while, and then said in unison, "Are you really here to deal with the Zerg?" ”
I was dumbfounded: Meow, I'm used to vacation
It's already the third day since landing on the planet, which is shallow named Black Egg.
In other words, should I complain about the word black egg?
Well, to get back to the point, it's been three days since we landed here, and during this time our development has been quite smooth, ninety percent of the factories and functional buildings in the General's City have been put into use, constantly replenishing our regular troops, and this place is indeed barren and remote, as Renault said, but barrenness and the like have always been meaningless to the Apostles of Killing, and in the case of a desperate need for resources, they can even transform what they need from any kind of atom, and the advantage of remoteness is, We don't have to worry about someone coming and disturbing us.
Incidentally, Central Park, which Lilina and Little Bubbles teamed up to build, is finally officially open for business
Renault put forward his intention to leave yesterday morning, but for the time being, we still need such a local pass to help, he was still retained by me, plus the two days of getting along, his guard against the emperor at the beginning has also been reduced a lot, after understanding that we are quite friendly, he also unceremoniously stayed temporarily, of course, a large part of this is because his soldiers, especially those female soldiers, have been completely conquered by the strange entertainment facilities created by the small bubble- For the first time, I realized that my clumsy little daughter had a talent for soft conquest.
It's been a long morning for Black Egg Star, and Sandora and I are walking around the park with Little Bubbles, which normally lasts until Sandora is hungry (her stomach is pretty much used as a clock by me), but today it seemed like something was going to happen, and a sharp metal grinding sound interrupted my discussion with Sandora about which was better, Jingdezhen porcelain or Mexican barbecue.
Vega in the form of a scorpion rushed from a distance, then stopped in front of us with a tooth-tickling sound of brakes.
"Vega, what's going on?" I asked, frowning.
Sister Scorpion first quickly sorted out her appearance, and then gave a military salute with a "snap": "Report to the sir, our probe found a navigation beacon signal in low earth orbit, and suspect that an intruder is approaching the satellite."
A gust of wind swept beside me, accompanied by a continuous sound of breaking the sky, and as soon as I turned my head, Pandora and Viska were already standing in front of me in full gear, and a high concentration of helium-3 could almost come out of the eyes of two 10,000-year-old meters.
Was it not enough to fight that brain worm just now, so the blood all over the body needs to be cooled urgently?
The unidentified spacecraft is approaching, although we are not yet indiscriminately strangled by a gravitational trap first, but the entire Emperor ** regiment immediately entered the combat alert, and the defense troops left in space all entered the state of space invisibility, and then began to arrange space mines everywhere in a completely shameless attitude, it is obvious that this unit commanded by a certain black super uncle has developed extremely obscene combat habits in the process of confronting the city management all year round, The Pandora Heavy Army, once known for its frenzied attacks, has degenerated to this point, which makes people sigh at the great harm of the piracy industry.
We gathered in the crystal tower in the center of the General's City, which has become the command center of the entire planetary defense system, and the large full-system projection system in the center of the hall is clearly from the bridge of the former "Imperial Admiral", and is relaying the scene from low Earth orbit to us in high definition.
A large fleet - although not as large as the entire Imperial First Legion, but at least more numerous than the batch of Protos that played soy sauce just now, and since all the Imperial warships in space have become invisible, and the huge mothership group has also been spread out by us into a city on the ground, this fleet of thousands of ships still looks quite intimidating.
"The human style."
With just one glance, Bubbles could see the race to which this fleet belonged.
"Twenty-two battle cruisers, three hundred heavy frigates, and more than a thousand corvettes and assault ships, in terms of the level of interstellar warfare, such a scale can only be regarded as a small force, it seems that this place is too remote, and the other side has not had time to prepare enough large legions."
In other words, the non-threatening opponent - even if you don't use those hidden imperial fleets, just send a leader-level apostle over to deal with these fragile primitive legions, and fight in space, the strength of the Hiling people can exponentially increase.
"It's the army of Mengsk......" Renault's face was solemn, his knuckles slightly white from the clenching of his fingers, "their noses are really smart." ”
"After all, we've been a little too quiet a few times in a row," I shrugged, "even if this place is remote, they should come to the door." ”
At this time, Bubbles suddenly interrupted me: "The child is her father, the other party sent a contact request." ”
I nodded, and asked her to pick up the communication, and a tall white man in an independent Union uniform with a serious expression immediately appeared on the holographic projection, and looking at the background behind him, it should be a bridge or something.
"It's a pleasure to meet, friend from afar, I'm the commander of the Independent Federation, Denton? Sentis, on behalf of the great Mengsk the Great, welcomes all of you who have come from afar. ”
The unfamiliar commander may have been slightly surprised by our human appearance, but the soldier's composure allowed him to quickly hide the expression, and then said with a blank look.
Welcome with twenty-two battle cruisers?
"Commander of the Human Empire," I nodded, "I'm the Emperor of the Xiling Empire, but before we start talking, did you notice that you're now in the Empire's airspace?" ”
It's not clear what the other party is trying to do, but it's not a good idea to show weakness when you first meet.
The expression on the face of the commander named Denton did not change at all, but replied with the rigidity of a soldier: "It may seem to you that this is the case, but I need to make one point clear: this sector is first and foremost the territory of the Independent Federation...... Of course, the planet on which you live is not demarcated, and it is not my purpose to discuss this issue, but as I said at the beginning, on behalf of the great Emperor Mengsk, I welcome you from afar. ”
In any case, the sincerity of this welcome was rather limited, not so much a welcome as a probing for the reality of us outsiders who suddenly appeared, but it was clear that the officer's self-confidence was too inflated because our fleet was all hidden in the folds of space, and the level of threat to the outer space fleet from the cities on the ground had always been a joke.
