Harmonic Battleship Hyperion

"So the current situation is...we are trapped on the ground, and Commander Renault and General Stukov are separated in high-altitude orbit?"

"That's right, Ms. Teresa, Commander Renault thinks this is a tactical arrangement."

"... Concentrate on destroying us who are rooted in the ground first, and then attack the Hyperion?"

The corners of Teresa's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a competitive smile, "Is this another kind of 'restraining the outside world first'?"

Lieutenant Morales and Swan obviously didn't understand what this sentence meant, but it must be an interpretation of the current situation.

"The number of blasters on this planet far exceeds our expectations. Even if Stukov's Liberator monster can deal with them, I'm afraid it won't be effective for a while."

Swan spread his hands, and said helplessly, "It's really reckless... If they are the real liberators, their Lexington rockets will definitely be able to easily destroy these explosive mosquitoes."

"Don't worry about this now, Lieutenant Morales, I saw that in the base..."

"Yes, we are shrinking the line of defense. Since the infected body was able to break through the northern barrier last night, it is estimated that the other direction will also... In short, judging from the current situation, the pressure tonight may be even greater."

Although he is a medical soldier, Lieutenant Morales has a good tactical vision, and he can be regarded as a qualified commander who knows how to plan ahead.

"Then what about the Hyperion's reaction? Reynolds doesn't intend to leave us below to fend for ourselves, does he?"

"That's not a very funny joke, Teresa, Mr. Cowboy's not like that."

Of course Teresa knew that Renault would not be that kind of person, but in the face of such a terrifying number of blasters directly blocking the planet's atmosphere, what could he do?

Originally thought that the opponents on this trip were endless infected bodies, but when Stukov came, not only could he not let go to destroy the infected bodies, but the main enemy was replaced by zerg...Thinking of this, Teresa couldn't help shaking Shaking his head, he secretly lamented why Renault's "on the fly" decision would encounter such a big trouble.

"By the way, why didn't you see Lin Yuan?"

"He's scouting the worm nest on Brown Rock Heights... Both Mr. Cowboy and the worm general plan to take it out before nightfall."

"……one person?"

Teresa asked hesitantly.

It wasn't that he doubted Lin Yuan's ability, but that he didn't think he would leave the Valkyries in the base when the night was coming.

Even if you are going to deal with urgent tasks, you should bring a right-hand assistant like yourself or Fu Hua, right?

Teresa, who is always used to being confrontational in battle, naturally didn't consider that the reason why Lin Yuan didn't bring them along was because it was too easy to make a huge commotion...

"If you don't follow, then it must be... But don't worry, that kid often does this, and there will be no danger."

After finishing speaking, Swan paused, "I think...what we really need to worry about is our side..."

……

Looking at the card in his hand, Lin Yuan hesitated for about five seconds, then put it into his close pocket.

This is the "trophy" that Ai Jiang snatched from the "mineral processing pool" of the insect nest through the ability to absorb crystal ore from a distance.

Meinhof was originally a planet rich in mineral resources. Compared with humans who use various mechanical equipment, the biological evolution system of the Zerg and the characteristics that are good at digging are obviously easier to give play to their advantages. Collect mines.

Then it's not surprising that Ai-chan was able to get the summoned crystal mine under the main nest... For the Zerg who controlled the entire brownstone highland industrial area, it is not a problem to accumulate such a mining amount.

He doesn't intend to summon a new Valkyrie just yet, though, and Ai-chan agrees with that.

Immediately after returning to the industrial area by the same route, Raynor told him that the zerg had mobilized and sealed off the entire planet.

"Boy, I don't want to make it difficult for you... But if the commander of the infected body is not killed as soon as possible, the base of the investigation team may not survive the night."

The implication is to tell him not to go back, and to scout the three locations where the signal of the tracker disappeared at night.

Although it looks dangerous, it is not a big problem for Lin Yuan, who is super powerful and can be invisible at any time. It's just...

"Boss, even if I can find something, how do you plan to get rid of it? Yamato Cannon?"

"Otherwise, what else can I do? I feel that the guy commanding the infected body is already in a hurry. It is now trying to eliminate you on the ground, and then deal with the Hyperion."

"This is the best way, the more impatient it is, the easier it is to get out of the way, let us lock its position..."

Lin Yuan, who had returned to the residential building, squatted down halfway, holding the detonating device of the splitting explosive in his hand, "Please inform General Stukov, Boss, he can start airdropping secret weapons."

After speaking, he pressed down lightly.

In an instant, the entire area where the worm nest was located was violently shaken, the ground quickly cracked and collapsed, and at the same time, thick smoke and dust were sprayed out.

As a weapon specially used to destroy building structures, splitting explosives are not mainly lethal and lethal shrapnel, but will release directional physical shock waves, destroying all material structures hit along the way.

At this moment, this characteristic was brought into full play by Lin Yuan...

Deafening loud noises reverberated in the sky, mixed with the tragic roars of countless Zergs. The ground covered by the Zerg nest began to sink slowly, and was split into many parts due to the huge vibration and impact... Some Zergs Because the building just grew above the crack, it was also torn apart at this moment, and a lot of blood gushed out.

On the other hand, the Hybrid Destroyer, which was originally suspended above the ground by its strong dark psionic energy, was not affected too much, and even looked around vigilantly, as if it already knew that someone was playing tricks.

But it couldn't reverse the impact of the violent earthquake and collapse on the worm nest. Including the spine crawler and spore crawler that drilled out of the ground urgently, all the zerg fell into the pits and cracks in disorder, squeezing In a ball, there must be nothing else to do before struggling to climb out and find a good position again.

And Stukov was waiting for this opportunity!

"Wow, Lin Yuan, look at the sky!"

"Well, it's an airdrop bag. It seems that Stukov's reaction speed is very fast."

Holding Ai Jiang in one hand and Lin Yuan who was only holding onto the edge of the roof with the other, he stared intently at the airdrop bags that fell from the sky.

These biological tissues that look like giant tadpoles are the most commonly used vehicles for Zerg, responsible for transporting ground units such as cockroaches and hydras to the surface of the planet at the fastest speed... They are not large in size and capacity, but The cushioning performance is excellent, and the exterior is also covered with a solid carapace, so it can be used directly as a weapon if necessary.

However, when the airdrop sacs that arrived first hit the Zerg hatch, Lin Yuan realized that they seemed to be different from what he had expected.

What was carried in the airdrop bag was not the combat units that I had seen at the base of the investigation team before, such as bunker beasts or infected rattlesnake chariots... but a kind of combat unit that seemed incomparable even from Lin Yuan's point of view. ugly...

"parasite?"

Seeing the mud-like substance at the bottom of the river actively spread out its shapeless body, wrapping the wriggling Zerg building, Lin Yuan couldn't help but subconsciously said.

As for the little guy Ai Jiang, the first moment he saw this scene, he rolled over and hid behind him.

Lin Yuan's guess was not entirely correct, because this "parasite" did not absorb the nutrients in the flesh and blood of the Zerg building to grow itself, but suddenly grew one after another follicles, and could still see something inside It is rapidly expanding and wriggling.

Soon, when the fragile follicle was burst by something bigger and bigger inside, he finally saw what it was.

It may be the smallest of the Zerg's main combat units, but it is also ferocious and brutal... Don't look at these hideous guys. They can't live for a few hours. Their speed and number will definitely give the marines nightmares.

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo scary, Lin Yuan..."

"Don't worry, it's General Stukov's army, it's his... secret weapon..."

"But it's obviously more like a monster than Zerg!"

To some extent it is impossible to refute it, Ai-chan!

Seeing a large number of brood worms being bred by the parasites wrapped in the Zerg building, and then pounced on the nearby Zerg units and started biting frantically, Lin Yuan couldn't help shaking his head.

It is impossible to defeat the Hive Guard by relying on these fragility alone to obtain the Brood Guard. Take the Hybrid Destroyer as an example, it is impossible for the Brood to pose any threat to it.

Sure enough, the broodworms that could only crawl quickly on the ground could not get close to the Hybrid Destroyer floating in mid-air, and the psionic shock wave emitted from its hands could take away nearly a hundred broodworms with one blow, making them into a crushed residue.

Although Lin Yuan didn't know how many broodworms the parasite created by Stukov could reproduce by absorbing nutrients, there was no doubt that it would not be infinite.

At the same time, he also noticed that the Zerg troop that had been entrenched on the outskirts of the nest had also begun to return to their defense... The first group of Banelings that hugged their bodies and rolled quickly on the ground were the first, followed by the already A few evolutionary aberrations were produced, as well as large, slow-moving swarm hosts.

"……not enough."

"Lin Yuan, what did you say?"

"These Brood Worms alone are unlikely to confront the Zerg Army head-on."

Lin Yuan's eyes under the helmet narrowed slightly, "But it's impossible for Stukov not to know this..."

As soon as the words fell, more airdrop sacs fell from the sky, but this time they were no longer filled with terrifying building parasites, but some pieces of meat and metal debris.

Is it something new?

After learning the lesson of the previous misjudgment, Lin Yuan lifted his spirits and began to carefully observe the airdrop capsules that hit the ground and fell apart.

A large number of tentacles-like tissues suddenly protruded from those giant pieces of meat and metal wreckage, and quickly extended outwards until they became entangled... Immediately afterwards, using these tentacles-like tissues as a link, everything that emerged from the airdrop bag It all started to come together.

This scene gave Lin Yuan a strangely familiar feeling, as if he had seen it somewhere before.

And when all the "parts" were "assembled" and Stukov's real secret weapon appeared in front of him, he remembered, isn't this the method of airdropping the Ultralisk?

So that means... you are also a Ultralisk?

Looking at the monster that was roaring in horror and covered with a lot of metal debris, Lin Yuan groaned silently in his heart.

No way, the creature that Stukov airdropped was too close to the Ultralisk in appearance: huge monomolecular bone blades were arranged on both sides of the head, and the thick and short limbs were responsible for carrying and moving. Even the armor plate protecting the brain is the same.

"Ow!!!"

The roar of the terrifying giant beast almost formed a shock wave visible to the naked eye, and at the same time it moved its feet, causing vibrations again and again in the already messy insect nest.

Its target is the Hybrid Destroyer floating in mid-air.

As for the returning zerg troops... The powerful chemical self-destruction of the baneling is not even a tickle for the giant beast, but the aberrant can find a chance to use its long claws to snap off a small piece of bone armor, and then be killed The huge monomolecular bone blade was cut in half, and it was too late to even escape.

The monster's weapons seemed to be more than these... When a large number of locusts temporarily hatched by the swarm host approached it, a raging flame suddenly appeared, burning them all into coke.

And the different dragon that swooped down from the sky was blown up by the homing missile fired from the back of the giant beast.

So this thing not only has the body of a zerg, but can also use human weapons and equipment?

Lin Yuan suddenly realized that he had completely underestimated Stukov's creativity, because it seemed that even Abathur didn't possess this kind of thinking that combines the strengths of different races... Before that, only Stetman Ph.D. proposed a similar theory.

Ripping through the zerg army's behemoth with little effort, the Monoboneblade fell on the Hybrid Destroyer in no time.

As the saying goes, quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes. When the pure power reaches a certain level, even the shield formed by the dark psionic energy cannot stop it... The hybrid destroyer was directly knocked out, and even the broken ground was blown away. A conspicuous huge gully was brought out.

It wasn't necessarily badly injured, but it was clearly unable to confront Stukov's behemoth head-on.

The impact of the giant bone blade and the dark psionic energy created a powerful energy impact in mid-air, almost plowing the nest again, and the brood insects and Zerg troops that were still fighting each other were all swept into the air and flew towards From a distance, the scene even looked inexplicably funny.

I don't know whether it was Stukov who gave the order to die or the monster itself hated the hybrid. It ignored all the Zerg troops and rushed to destroy the hybrid that had been knocked hundreds of meters away. There is a great meaning that we must "kill them all".

"It's really a simple and rough battle."

Seeing that the giant beast and the Hybrid Destroyer had gone far away, and there were very few living insects left in the collapsed nest, Lin Yuan couldn't help but said with emotion, and then lifted his invisibility system, "It seems The goal of destroying this worm nest has been achieved."

"Does Lin Yuan like simple and rough battles?"

"It's not absolute, but doing so can often solve certain problems as quickly as possible, such as Valkyrie..."

What he wanted to say was to use the power of the Valkyries to deal with enemies like the Mobius Legion, but suddenly found a familiar glare above his head.

and many more!I didn't expect to summon the Valkyrie now! ?

For some unknown reason, Lin Yuan, who suddenly activated the summoning, was startled for a second, then opened his hands, ready to catch the new Valkyrie.

However, the next moment, his warning nerves exploded, and he quickly dodged to the side.
