StarCraft: Tyranid Empire

"A hybrid with a name is enough to illustrate his importance among the dark gods." When Zeratul came, it was as if he was riding on a phantom. When people really saw his appearance, it still seemed unreal. wonderful feeling.

"Augustus Mengsk, I am here to warn you. The tragedy of Zakuul is the beginning of a terrible annihilation that will engulf the entire Koprulu sector."

The dark patriarch who came here after a long journey is still wearing the shabby purple hunting robe of the Lenasa tribe. Even the animal skins sewn on the shoulder armor are worn out. It is difficult to imagine the things he has wandering around in the universe. What kind of hardships have he experienced in life, and what kind of burden can make this respectable star spirit stoop forward.

In order to find the hope of saving the world and search for the prophecies of Xel'Naga, Zeratul took risks that ordinary people could not imagine. Renault knew that there was usually only one ending to such desperate adventures.

Zeratul was willing to burn himself as long as there was a glimmer of hope.

"Ah! A Dark Templar!" The Purifier Tarandar roared at this moment, and the mechanical arm rotated and lit up two steel-forged cutting blades.

No wonder Talandar was so angry. His memory still lingered on before meeting Zeratul and other Dark Templar warriors. Moreover, in the legendary story of "Phoenix", he killed many Dark Templar terrorists.

Until now, Talandar has been reluctant to accept the Dark Templar among the protoss of Dallam, thinking that they are just a bunch of madmen who have turned their backs on Kara.

"O Gods! This enemy must be purified! Dark Templar, there must be a battle between us!" The core matrix in Talandar's body released a terrifying power.

The body of this mechanical protoss looks huge and bulky, but in fact it is not. The mechanical body of his upper body can rotate at extremely high speeds, and when he wields the mechanical blade, it looks like a deadly cutting machine.

Here in the Tyran Empire, Talandar has several nicknames, including Lao Zhuan, Phoenix Little Top, and Terror Robot.

"A mechanical protoss is among you humans!" Zeratul is used to seeing big scenes, but he has never seen this before: "Brother Augustus, you humans always surprise me."

"Talandar, Dark Priest Zeratul is my friend. If you get along with him for a while, you will find that he is actually an upright, friendly and reliable Dark Templar!" Augustus stopped him hastily. A conflict may break out.

Then, he explained to Zeratul: "Talandar is a member of the Purifier Project of the Protoss Empire. As a mechanical protoss, he copied the personality of the Templar Phoenix."

"You are simply saying that a gangster who has done all kinds of evil is actually an honorable warrior, just like a prostitute is actually an innocent girl. This is really ridiculous." Talandar said by analogy.

"Phoenix." Zella choked, but soon he started laughing. This protoss is a guy who can tell the enemy something to show off.

"Learned from me." Renault was very proud of this, and Phoenix was also led into the ditch by him.

"It's really unqualified." Augustus knew that on the battlefield, it was normal for highly nervous soldiers to make dirty jokes among themselves, which might be very difficult for the Star Spirits to understand. Even the Tal'darin protoss showed no signs of debauchery.

"I learned it from Tychus." Renault pursed his lips.

"Salute to Adun, Tarandal, the Dark Templar will always be your friend. You should really go to Sagulath to see, where the Templar and the Dark Templar coexist harmoniously." Zera The picture actually doesn’t quite clear up the current situation of Sacoolas. He, the Dark Priest, actually doesn't work, and spends his free time running around outside Sagulas.

For those protoss who cannot understand Zeratul, they will inevitably regard him as a crazy person.

"I will go." Talandar emphasized: "But not because of your suggestion. Remember it."

"Where have you been during this time?" Augustus kept thinking, you said slowly. Some time ago, Zeratul went to Zerus and helped Augustus' people pry the original zerg split pool, but then disappeared for some reason.

"I pursue the Xel'Naga prophecy fragments and search for the truth about the future in multiple lost worlds." Zeratul's voice sounded very confused. He usually behaves like he knows everything and knows a little bit about everything: "But Prophecies are often contradictory or unclear."

Just after the first-generation Overlord was killed, his body evaporated by his own void energy and the twilight energy of the protoss opened a miraculous door to the void.

Now, the power in this Void Gate has become stronger and stronger, and the increasingly terrifying void energy is pulling Al closer to the void. But the barrier between reality and the void will be infinitely and endlessly drawn closer, but El will never become part of the void.

This also allows certain evil gods in the Void to influence Aiur through the Void Gate, and it is through it that Zeratul and his Dark Templars further communicate with the Void.

You know, there are three Xel'Naga in the void now, one is Emon who intends to destroy everything and reshape the universe, and the other is Emon's henchman Narud. The oldest Xel'Naga Orus stands on the side of continuing to protect the universe of reincarnation, and the prophecies Zeratul learned also came from him.

It's just that Orus has been imprisoned by Emon and cannot protect himself. If he wants to release any news to Zeratul to thwart Emon's conspiracy, he can only hide it from others and avoid being discovered. This is why he does not speak human words.

The problem is that the prophecy that Zeratul learned about could also come from another person.

Eamonn.

The Xel'Naga prophecy may also be left by Eamon. He predicted that the stars will be destroyed and the universe will eventually be shrouded in darkness. And Eamonn is the person who turned this prophecy into reality.

Amon teased all living beings like a real god, and he never thought that he was the clown.

"In those dark and distant worlds, I shuttled between immortal temples and glorious wonders from countless eras. I witnessed the rise of the black sun, and witnessed the Xel'Naga Phoenix being born on the ruins, flying to Another world after the wormhole." He said:

"Annihilation is coming, and darkness will engulf worlds one after another. In Xel'Naga's plan, one person's existence is indispensable."

He said to Augustus: "In the past, I thought this person was you."

"Is this what the prophecy said?" Renault was curious. Destiny is actually very mysterious. After all, you can never guarantee whether the Vulture motorcycle under your crotch will suddenly explode.

If there is such a thing as prophecy and destiny, then Renault just wants to race with No. 8 whiskey and be a bohemian and free-spirited cowboy. When he got married, family was prioritized above everything else.

"No, the prophecy says that Augustus Mengsk will bring changes." Zeratul said: "In the endless dark future, he will turn the wheel of fate."

This is actually a neutral statement. You never know whether Augustus was the one who lit the fire of hope, or whether he was the one who extinguished the fire.

"I never knew that prophecies could name names." Renault spread his hands: "If Xel'Naga can really predict the future, what else do they need from us?"

"But you're not so sure now, are you?" Augustus believed that he was not a son of destiny, but he would definitely disrupt Xel'Nagaurus's salvation plan. Of course, he also interfered with Eamonn and Narud.

But the Dark Templar believe this, so they are willing to protect him, the last hope of the universe.

"Before I traveled to Zerus, I learned that Sarah Kerrigan was the destined savior," Zeratul said.

"I don't look like a character who can crush the palace." Augustus smiled: "But how can we save the world? My greatest ability is also within the scope of human beings."

"We can't figure it out, and of course we can never figure it out, the Xel'Naga's true intentions." Zeratul's greatest wisdom is that he never thinks he is the smartest one. The most valuable thing about Zeratul is that he believes in the power of others.

"I just do what I have to do."

"Zelatu, who said there is only one savior." Reno put his hand around Augustus' shoulders: "Maybe the savior is not just one person, but all of us."

"You're right, Jimmy." Augustus praised him and said, "I've always thought you were the smartest among us."

"Not Tychus?" Raynor said, "You said that to everyone. You even told Hank that he was the smartest."

"I don't remember it," said Augustus. "Let it pass."

"Come on." Renault was angry. In a sense, Augustus Mengsk was the real scumbag.

"Your life is nearing the end, surrender to despair!" At this time, Augustus and others heard the evil voice in their minds, which made people feel sick and fearful involuntarily.

"Today is the day you die!"

"Some secrets must be buried deep!"

"Annihilation has arrived! No one can stop it!"

"Stop struggling foolishly, hope is long gone!"

"Do you still have hope?"

"What on earth is this? Shut him up!" Renault realized that these lingering voices had taken root in his mind.

If you can imagine a repeater beeping endlessly in your head, this is probably what it feels like.

"It's the hybrid Maar!" Zeratul said: "He is personally leading this corrupted protoss army!"

"Let me meet him," Renault said.

"Let us fight together! En Taro Adun!" said Talandar.

In the gloomy midday light of Zakuul, the battle began about 20 miles west of Twilight Citadel. This means that the city is within the long-range fire strike range of the Terran Empire's earth-shattering cannons, and the radiation strike offensive with neurotoxin warheads is enough to turn the entire area into purgatory, and large areas of land are shrouded in scorching dust. and in thick smoke.

The dense dark forest once served as a natural barrier that could block the advance of the infantry, but it was quickly destroyed by the overwhelming artillery fire and raging flames.

The ancient ruins that collapsed in the flames of war and the strange plants that burned in flames are really regrettable, but it is a pity that the Tyranids' offensive shows no mercy and will never tolerate it. Experience in interstellar warfare has taught the Terran humans that they must be as ruthless as the zerg and as efficient as the protoss.

Looking down from the Banshee bombers crossing the battlefield, the Iron Legions of the Tyranid Empire are just a converging iron-gray torrent, but to the enemies facing them, they are just an insurmountable steel wall, rolling battle The car crushes everything.

Building this torrent of steel are tens of thousands of Wolf Warriors, Hellbats, and Goliath mechas. The violent barrage composed of railguns, cannons, and missiles continues to extend and advance forward as they move. The incomparable Odin mecha sits in the center like a king. When its 330mm barrage cannon starts bombarding, fountains of clay are continuously thrown into the air, like the incarnation of the god of war.

The heat wave of the shells swept across the entire land, the broken towering trees sobbed in the wind of death, and the burning flames released dazzling light.

This elite steel lion has brought countless victories to Emperor Augustus and the Empire. Their path forward is full of dark craters and mecha wreckage.

Just like in the past, no matter how powerful the army is, it is not easy to win victory from the protoss. Even the most arrogant General Duke has to admit that the protoss has the capital to be arrogant.

The Zakul Guardians are all brave warriors selected to protect the Aspect Spirits. They are brave and adept at fighting and are invincible.

This is destined to be a war that will go down in history. It is the first confrontation between the Tyranid Empire and the Dalam protoss army since the Brood War. Various types of weapons have sprung up after the end of the total war. The new weapons made their first large-scale appearance in actual combat.

Facing the Tyranid Empire's torrent of steel and devastating artillery fire, the Zakuul Protoss responded with an even more violent counterattack.

A large number of protoss immortals appeared on the battlefield, but human artillery fire had little effect when faced with the resolute energy shield. Although the Zakuul Protoss have been corrupted by an evil dark force, and their twisted minds are shrouded in fanaticism and rage, their tactics are as brilliant as ever.

As the Immortals and Stalkers began to attack the Terran Empire's forces from the front, the Arbiters appeared on the enemy's flanks. A few spacecraft may not be very eye-catching from the radar map, but if they hesitate for a moment, they will be devastating.

This is an example of the protoss using space-time weapons. Arbiters can often become a surprise force because they are never alone.

Like an icy blue shadow suddenly appearing, a large number of siege tanks that had been set up were frozen by the Arbiter's stillness ray, and then the Zakuul Protoss fanatics holding sharp blades were blocked by the surging time and space rifts. Teleported directly to the tank cluster, a brutal killing followed.

It is said that the protoss warriors condensed their will with faith and forged hot psychic blades with their passion for Kara. Their blades are truly indestructible and capable of cutting everything.

Although Zakuul's protoss guardians are among the most formidable enemies the Tyranid Empire has ever encountered, the steel torrent of human mechanized forces is still approaching unswervingly towards the Citadel of Twilight.
