StarCraft breaks through American comics
Chapter 29 Pirates again?
"This is a magical substance...well..." Zeratul was observing the properties of this strange semi-fluid substance.
It is full of energy and seems to be able to replace their crystals and gases to a certain extent, but as for its specific other effects, detailed experiments are needed to know.
The only thing he knew so far was that it came from the skull of the dead giant humanoid creature.
This is what computer master Zeratul saw from the information on this group of marauders.
"Collect them all and put them on the aircraft carrier. Maybe we can get some valuable clues." After saying that, he asked the aircraft carrier in orbit to dispatch several unmanned shuttles to prepare to transport all the loot. Walk.
The unmanned shuttle is about the same size as a human medical transport aircraft.
But it can be folded, and the interior space is a little larger.
"The Collector... this person seems a little unusual, we have to be careful." Zeratul's first reaction was that there was something wrong with this guy.
It is not easy for anyone who can directly lock onto the Void Seeker's body.
Because most little guys can only dismantle the illusion of it...
Half a month later, the Altair Galaxy.
After the mining base on Altair basically started operating normally, Warfield also divided his troops as scheduled.
Five battlecruisers and ten Hercules transport ships were loaded with all the supplies and troops needed to establish a purely military outpost and flew to the Vega system a few light years away from their current location.
On the outer edge of Vega's dust disk, Vega Nine.
This is a typical Jupiter-like planet, except that it is colder than Saturn and Jupiter.
But it's at least a little hotter than Uranus and Neptune.
Not a so-called ice giant.
Similar to Jupiter, this type of gas giant planet can usually rely on its own strong gravity to capture many satellites for itself.
As long as one of these moons is large enough and rocky, they can establish a solid outpost.
And they actually found one.
This rocky satellite, named Vega 3, forms a 2: orbital resonance with Vega similar to that of the sun and Mercury.
Due to its close distance and strong tidal forces, this satellite, which is comparable in size to Mercury and has a magnetic field like Ganymede, has certain plate tectonic movements.
It also has volcanoes.
Well, at least it's not tidally locked to its host star, so its volcanic activity isn't particularly intense.
As long as you put more effort into detecting, you will definitely be able to find a suitable place to establish a base.
The rough scanning process took them half a day because their science ship was not yet in place.
"After rock formation scanning and multiple echolocation tests, it was found that there is a relatively stable plate in the northern hemisphere of this satellite, hundreds of kilometers in size." Sure enough, they can still set foot on stable ground.
"Boom!" Several command centers and the only orbital control base that came here with them landed on a relatively ancient lava plain in this plate.
Their landing stirred up a cloud of dust.
Landing with them were several Hercules transport ships.
A large number of Terran Empire ground troops came out from these transport ships.
The main force of this ground force consists of a large number of Marines, Marauders, Medics, Hellions, Goliath armed robots, and siege tanks.
They also have a few Thors, as well as a Ghost Squad.
"Everyone, start building defenses immediately! We are the outpost of the empire, and we must be prepared to hold on for a long time!" The person in charge of the outpost is an old subordinate of Warfield, Kevin Yang. An Imperial Army Colonel.
"Yes, sir!" Just as he spoke, a team of SCVs over three meters tall came off the transport ship dragging a lot of stuff.
The additional troops carried on the battlecruiser have also been basically unloaded.
Except for one ship that stayed above the base, the other four ships went to explore this young galaxy.
This will add a lot of necessary detail to their star chart.
What is a bit unexpected is that a Hercules transport ship that was returning after completing its transportation mission was actually targeted by a group of predator pirates before starting the jump.
Although the Predators are a loose organization, they do have enough people. Basically, you have the possibility of being robbed by them anywhere in the galaxy.
"This spaceship seems to have no weapons at all! Quick! Brothers, let's go up and get some!" The leader of this group of predators has been observing for a long time.
It can only be said that this Hercules is a bit unlucky. They stopped here to check the details on the star map.
Because four battlecruisers had previously explored the interior of this galaxy, and now the first batch of results had been sent back, Captain Henry wanted to update the star map first.
Because he never wanted to be hit by a meteorite again.
That's right, when they jumped out of hyperspace before, they were unlucky enough to have a recoil engine for landing damaged by a flying meteorite.
Of course, the SCVs had already replaced it with a useful one during unloading.
"No! A spaceship is coming towards us!" the pilot of the Hercules transport ship shouted.
The spaceship opposite has a bit of a steampunk flavor, but at first glance, it doesn't look like a good person.
"What did you say?" Henry was shocked and quickly opened the monitor to observe the other party.
"No! They are those damn marauder pirates!" As a Terran human officer, he still came into contact with some intelligence brought back by the protoss.
For example, those predatory pirates who are as annoying as flies.
"Quick! Call the Imperial Fleet for support! You must be quick!" It's not like Henry has never been robbed by pirates. He knows very well how rogue people in this business are.
If you don't beat them painfully, these bandits will harass you anytime and anywhere.
"Captain! We received a distress signal from a Hercules transport ship. They encountered a group of pirates!" The battlecruiser staying in the high-altitude orbit of the Vega satellite was the first to receive the distress signal.
"Hurry up! Let's rush over to support them first. We can't let these galaxy natives get our technology!" Then, the entire ship quickly entered a state of combat readiness.
The pirate's landing spacecraft has been attached to the hull of the Hercules and began to look for a passage to enter.
They soon discovered several airlocks.
"No, these pirates are demolishing our airlock! Leave the cab alone and intercept them quickly!" Seeing the multiple airlock sensors on the screen alarming, Henry became anxious.
"Bang!" An airlock was finally dismantled, and a strange-looking (in the eyes of earthlings, indeed strange and ugly) pirate jumped out in full view of everyone.
"Hand over all your treasures and valuables, otherwise...!" The first pirate to rush in thought that the spaceship should be defenseless from the inside out. As a result, as soon as he opened the airlock and rushed in, he was shot in the head by a Marine who was waiting for him.
"We can't let the pirates break through more cabins! Brothers, follow me!"
The Hercules transport ship does have no weapons, but that doesn't mean there are no security forces inside it.
Although not much.
In addition to the necessary crew, the ship only has fifty marines and five medics.
In theory, they can hold it for a long time, but the problem is that this group of pirates is attacking from multiple directions, and fifty marines simply cannot deal with enemies from so many directions.
"Sir! There are too many of these damn pirates! They have broken through many areas of our ship!" Although the Marines have not been killed yet, there are only a few who were injured by energy weapons and their power armor was damaged, but They had involuntarily started to retreat towards the cab, which had not been lost yet.
There were a few defensive automatic cannons there that would allow them to hold on for a while.
"Quick! These Tyranids are retreating! Let's pursue them!" This group of pirates already knew who their opponents were.
It turned out to be the natives of Teran Star.
It's really stupid. How can such a big spaceship not be equipped with weapons? Come to give money to grandpas?
"The Imperial battlecruiser Mars has arrived! You damn pirate scumbags actually dare to rob the Imperial spaceship. Surrender immediately and unconditionally! Otherwise we will open fire!" This ship is the New Dara on Deimos. The new ship from Ryan Shipbuilding.
"What? These Tyranids are asking us to surrender. Don't be kidding! Brothers, work harder and knock off the driver's cab of this ship!" Only the driver's cab of this Hercules is left.
Moreover, twelve of the fifty marines were killed, and nearly half of the rest were injured.
These damn pirates have too many energy weapons.
But the pirates are actually not having a good time here either.
The C14 Gauss rifle can easily penetrate their bodies.
The skin of these fools is not as thick as the carapace of springtails and cockroach hydralisks.
"Sir! There is no response from this group of pirates!" The correspondent waited for a long time but did not receive a reply.
"Then use the Yamato cannon to fire their flagship! Fire!" Damn, you are so shameless.
"No! They're going to fire!" The pilot of the Predator flagship tried to maneuver to avoid it.
However, he really thought too much.
The Yamato Cannon is a thousands-ton thermonuclear explosion compressed under strong electromagnetic constraints and flies extremely fast in a vacuum.
Before he could even turn, the Predator flagship was blown in half.
In an instant, the vacuum of the universe sucked away all the air in the unenclosed space in the wreckage of the ship.
Many pirates were killed by the vacuum before they even had time to put on their spacesuits.
"Sir! Some of them are wearing space suits and are not dead yet!" Radar doesn't lie.
"Let the gun crew aim at these surviving pirates, fire freely, and leave no one alive! Pirates are some of the worst things in the galaxy! What's more, they are not human beings." If they are not human beings, they are not worthy of their humanitarian treatment.
"Send out the airdrop pods and take back our Hercules immediately!" Following the captain's order, countless airdrop pods filled with good brothers, bald heads, nurse sisters and ghosts were launched from the bottom of the battlecruiser and pounced on the ship. An immobile Hercules.
"It's not good! It's over, it's over, the Tyranids blew our flagship in half with one shot!" A pirate who was originally guarding the airlock witnessed the destruction of their flagship with his own eyes.
"What did you say?" The leader of this group of plunderers was stunned when he heard the news.
impossible! His ship was a frigate from the Kree Empire in the edge world that was hijacked a long time ago. How could it be destroyed by a single shot from the Tyranids?
He's going to see for himself.
"You continue the attack! The cockpit of this spaceship must be knocked down!" Before he left, he did not forget to explain the mission to his minions.
