The Bizarre Adventure of Tartaros Fleet

That is to contain the enemy, so that the opponent cannot dispatch a large fleet to detect its position or support the fleet in the Nascatron theater.

The legion leader gave himself another booster, cursed in a low voice, and then ordered:

[Think of ways to increase firepower and end the battle as soon as possible.If there is no way to catch it, try to use ATA to paste its face, and try to second it. ] When she said these words, Beria had already noticed that she was under a lot of pressure 【Where is the wide-area detector? 】

"There was no response. The bugs that came towards us at the beginning were about halfway into the arena," but he had no way to relieve the pressure on his boss, so he could only hope that Liu Lizi, who was riding with Oregana, could rise up. Due to the effect of the tranquilizer, "the other half changed its course and left, and it has already left the range of the detector."

"We know, you must guard there, if you have spare time, let the scouts dispatch, we must find the location of the leader behind!"

【clear! 】

Another bad news...

Oregana felt that her brain was hurting even more - this dark worm is not an idle person at all, it is good at trying to figure out people's hearts, and it is extremely good at tactics.

The troops that restrained Beria were only on the one hand, and the other was the dark worm swarm that changed course midway and left.The dozen or so mothership-class and heavy-carrier-class that have gone to nowhere seem to have become something like an 'existing fleet'.Once these dozens of bugs appear, they may be defeated or wiped out without affecting any of their decisions, but if they stay out of everyone's sight, they will have to deploy military forces to guard against them.

But in order to wipe out the bugs that are now lingering in various galaxies and starting to lick the last psychic energy—that is, those mobile units for local defense and those Nascatrons in the fortress—Oregana must put The already insufficient number of doomsday dreadnought ships and intact wave gun carrying ships were divided into various squadrons.

Not long ago, she had broken up the fleet into five teams, and went to different galaxies in batches to eliminate the bugs.When he had just achieved some results, he suddenly received such news.If you can't wipe out all the bugs quickly, then you can't stop the one behind the scenes from getting all the psychic powers; but if you spread the fleet too widely in order to quickly wipe out all the bugs, you will worry about ganking the dozens of bugs. Break each one.

"Tsk..."

Thinking of this, Oregana couldn't help but clicked her tongue.Just like he once calculated Nascatron, the dark worm is also calculating himself-what is his purpose?Is it to kill the dozen or so bugs that act as straws?

Of course not, the target of the Consolidation Department is the guy with the brains.But now just cutting the straws has already exhausted energy and brainpower, and it is even more difficult to catch the guy who has the habit of dangling.

"The entire galaxy is a war zone, and we don't have enough manpower." Liu Lizi whispered, "We have killed four of them now, but as expected, the psychic response of the insects was very weak when they died."

The psionic power of billions of people is not a small amount. If it really exists in the bug's body, it will explode as cool as a firework bomb when it explodes.But the worm that was knocked out was like a squib, and died silently after its blood bar was emptied, which meant that the spiritual energy in its body had been uploaded to the mother's body in a very spiritual way.

This means that the mother body has eaten the psionic energy of tens of billions of people—this kind of existence has become completely different from ordinary dark worms.Take a simple raccoon, look at Alarak in normal state, it doesn’t look like anything special, just like an ordinary nut that has been overcooked, and can talk a little bit; but if you use 400 Let's open the 'worship me' to try it out?Evolved directly from a tall nut to a corn cannon that can fire in bursts. (fog)

Absorbed psionic energy, completely heterogeneous dark worm, this thing must not be left behind.Oregana knew very well that if she let it go at this time, there would only be endless troubles left behind.

"Has it been uploaded..." She brushed her sweat-drenched hair aside, "Hiss... what about Artanis, is there a way for him to track the target based on the flow of psionic energy?"

The dark worm guides the spiritual energy to the matrix, so it should be feasible to judge the location based on the flow direction.But the progress of Protos monks who are good at psionic operations is not ideal at all.

"He is trying, but the effect is not good." Liu Lizi shook his head, his ears drooping weakly. "There is a dark worm's thinking in psionic energy, and it is very risky for templars to touch it rashly."

She couldn't blame the templars, the job was more dangerous than dismantling bombs with their eyes closed.The thinking of the dark worm is quite terrifying. If you contact it without being absolutely complete, if you make a mistake, the consequences will be disastrous.

And the consumption of personnel and fuel in each fleet is also astonishing-fatigue does not only exist on the soldiers, the long-term overload operation, even the battleship itself is gradually under pressure.

Reports from various fleets indicated that the pace of this attack should be stopped, and rationality told Oregana that after cleaning up the 'straws' and other bugs that could be found, the fleet should be stopped, and the front-line fortresses should be gradually withdrawn. , began to consider the end of the war.

This will be a glorious victory. The civilization that was with the dark worms was wiped out by the dark worms, and the fleet of the Consolidation Department returned triumphantly after killing a large number of dark worms. All those who participated in this war will become A great hero praised by all.

However, reason also said at the same time that the one who ran away will appear in front of the integration department with a brand new attitude one day in the future.If you stop now and let the tiger go back to the mountain, the last one to come back will be a golden Foza...

"Ugh……"

But what is the use of knowing?

It seems that there is really no other way, and if it continues, it will only increase losses.

Feeling tired and powerless, she relaxed and leaned on the captain's seat, with a disappointed expression on her face——

After playing for such a long time, the loss was so heavy, both physically and mentally.He and Nascatron tried their best to be tough, but in the end they let the bugs take advantage of it, and they didn't even know where the bugs were.This is not only the disappointment that the strategic goal cannot be achieved, but also the aggrieved feeling that people have been played.

"Boss..."

"Where do we go to find this... This thing is obviously hiding in the black domain, we have no way to dig it out in a short time..."

As long as you avoid planetary systems, you can avoid most detection methods.The distance between galaxies is unbelievably long. Finding a bug thousands of kilometers long in the void of several light years is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack.The seventeen galaxies in the Nascatron star field, and outside the star field, have a rather exaggerated 'gap' with the widest scale of hundreds of light-years. The integration department is used to warn the dark worms, specifically for the energy response of the dark worms The developed fixed observation station can only scan a little bit of it.

With the existing technology and materials, it was an unshakable fact that the Dark Worm could not be found.

Although Liu Lizi really wanted to comfort her boss, but in the face of the cruel reality, it was useless to say anything.It seems that I really can only go back and work hard to build a ship, and then I will beat my head and blood when we meet next time.

Just when Oregana was about to order to wipe out the existing targets, and then withdrew the fleet, an unexpected communication came in——

[Captain Oregana, this is Jim Raynor. 】

The weather-beaten face of Jim Raynor appeared on the screen, but unlike before, he shaved clean, and there was no wine bottle in the bridge of the Huberian behind him-this is obviously It is the result of Xel'Naga's divine power. (convinced)

"Commander Renault?" Oregana blinked, and asked reflexively, "A bug appeared? Do you need support?"

Renault shook his head——

【It didn’t show up, the situation on our side is very good... Sarah is looking for you, I will transfer the communication to you. 】

Kerrigan looking for herself?At this moment?

Oregana's eyes widened... That's right, the current equipment of the Consolidation Department can't do it, but someone can do it!Anyway, this is a world adjacent to Keprulu, and the power of the new Xarnaga can obviously affect this place!

She leaned forward sharply, looking at the huge human figure on the screen that was shining with golden-red light, somewhat similar to Cthugha——

"Is there anything you can do, Kerrigan?"

Chapter 684Chapter 621: A perfect attack of fifteen needles in one hit, just take it if you can!

Oregana asked eagerly:

"Is there anything you can do, Kerrigan?"

[Well,] In the void, Sarnaga nodded, and the shadow of Sarah Kerrigan in the past could still be vaguely seen on her facial features [I found a psionic energy in the black field between galaxies Response - very faint, vague, but I can't determine the approximate location in the void. 】

It seems that this bug is indeed quite good, it can actually evade Sarnaga's spiritual detection...

"If you can come to the universe here, can you accurately locate it?"

[There is no available avatar, so I can't get out for the time being. 】Sarnaga is indeed very powerful in the regular universe, but the consumption is not one or two points - when Amon appeared in Aiur in ancient times, he had to suck the protoss like a battery to survive.For Sarnaga, a suitable and easy-to-use avatar is very important. Nyarlathotep agreed to help make the combat avatar, but she has not appeared in front of him for quite a while.

It is said that they went to the front to support Gau Nicholas' flock...

But that doesn't mean Kerrigan can't extend his consciousness beyond the Void—

[But I will try to use the shadow of the void to locate. 】

Kerrigan had already experienced Amon's various methods as early as when he first faced Amon.After becoming Xel'Naga herself, she also began to gradually master these useful skills.Among them, the best one is the Shadow of the Void. Although it can't last for a long time, and its performance is several grades weaker than the 'prototype', it is convenient and easy to build, and it can be easily sent into the battlefield as long as there is a crack.

You don't need too many in battle, but now when you need to accurately locate the target, the huge number of shadows of the void is of course the best choice.

"Can it be done?" Oregana asked, "The kind that is accurate to within half a light second?"

Although it feels strange to say some things, but... the definition of [Long-distance Precise Leap] in many places is different from that of Tartarus.In combat, it would be a mistake if the deviation reached more than 15 kilometers, so that when the fleet rushed to the distance that could be output, the opponent would have already responded anyway.

[Yes, but there is only one chance,] Kerrigan replied affirmatively [The opponent will definitely notice the psionic power when the Shadow of the Void is released, and you must enter the field immediately after finding the target. 】

Just thinking about it, at this moment, the monster must be cautiously looking around while sucking psionic energy, just like sneaking in the toilet to smoke secretly, always on the lookout for a middle school student whose teacher ran in.

From the beginning until now, the Dark Worm's vigilance has been beyond imagination. Oregana doesn't believe that this monster will continue to stand still and fight the fleet at the risk of being encircled and suppressed after the fleet enters the arena.I'm afraid that as long as there is a slight disturbance, the other party will slip away immediately, right?

"You have to enter the arena immediately, or the opponent will escape?"

[I think so. 】

In other words, the assault on the dark worm must be completed in an instant - jumping, launching the doomsday weapon, and ending the battle, all in one go.Take the transformed hero as an example, that is, to launch the light technique immediately after transformation without any hesitation.Because for dark worm individuals with psionic powers, jumping disruptor bombs are useless. The previous ice shell monster has shown you how to use the mind blast to blow up all the disruptor bombs next to it in one breath.

This feeling is like gambling... Oregana gestured to Liulizi, and the leopard immediately sent the list of the fleet in hand to the screen in front of Oregana.

In order to wipe out those straws as soon as possible, Oregana has already dispersed the fleet. At the moment, only half of the flagship guard commanded by Huo Ling and the fleet of the Blood Ravens can be used.In total, there are only four doomsday dreadnoughts, and with the addition of the 'Day of Judgment' equipped on Tiamat, there are only five doomsday weapons in total.

But looking at it the other way around—the Doomsday Weapon still has as many as five rounds...

Oregana nodded, looking at Kerrigan seriously:

"Okay, please." Then, she turned on the communicator. "Kruse, get your troops ready."

【clear. 】The mask commander saluted casually, his expression was the same as his mood, completely hidden behind the mask【Are we the only ones okay? 】

According to Ambassador Latavila, the enemy this time is a gaseous mothership class.This kind of dark worm looks huge, but in fact, only the solid core with a radius of several hundred kilometers in the center is the main body, and the rest is the gas bound by spiritual energy.Bound by psychic energy in a combat state, the compressed high-temperature, high-pressure atmosphere can effectively intercept most conventional attacks. In a sense, it is the most resistant mothership class.

But, on the other hand, if you think of this defense mode as a shield, you can easily imagine that if you concentrate several rounds of doomsday weapons at one point, you can blast a short-lived hole in the shield—— However, the solid core inside does not have enough defensive power to resist the attack that comes in at this moment.

"Five rounds of overloaded doomsday weapon," this tactic sounds like a fantasy, but as long as the command and communication network is synchronized in advance, it is not a problem to fire with a gap of only half a second. "As long as the shot is accurate, The battle can be over in an instant."

Kreuzer listened, and a seemingly unfathomable smile appeared on the lower half of his face——

[Betting on a small possibility, I believe there will be something to gain,] He raised the mask [Is this the way forward? 】

Where are you from, Scorpio Saint Seiya... (cover face)

But since Kruse uttered the famous words of the Scorpio Saint, Oregana had to pick up:

"What about five mobile fortresses and ten 'Rainbow Swords'? There are fifteen rounds in total, which is the same as the number of scarlet needles."

Theoretically, such an attack is enough to break through the defense of a gaseous mothership class—but that's only usually the case.In the records from the subspace, there is no data record of the gaseous mothership class that has just absorbed the psionic energy of tens of billions of people. Everything can only be guessed and estimated.

On this point, both Oregana and Kruse knew very well.

This is a gamble. If the gamble is won, all hidden dangers will be eliminated in this round of shelling, and this game will end with a big victory that will be recorded in history.And if you lose the bet... the worst case scenario is that the Tiamat and the accompanying fleet, five mobile fortresses were damaged by the enemy's counterattack, and in the end the dark worm managed to escape from the battlefield and disappeared into the universe without a trace can be found.

The benefits far outweigh the costs, and the highest costs are affordable.Such a gamble, Kruse said that he followed——

【I understand. 】He replied 【All the battleships of the Blood Ravens are ready to jump, this is the final battle! 】

To be on the safe side, all the doomsday fearless should be assembled first, but now, due to the continuous battle, the fuel of each fleet is exhausted, and by the time the supplies are over, the target may have already escaped.After getting the affirmation, Kerrigan immediately started to act——

She will revolve around the spiritual energy reaction in the black domain, and develop several space cracks within a light-year.In the next few seconds, the newcomer Sarnaga threw hundreds of Void Shadows into that space domain in one breath.These shadows of the void are all manufactured according to the dark worm sensor developed by Tartarus. This sensor is generally fixed in the border galaxy. They can perceive the energy response of the dark worm within eight light-years, but not Accurate positioning is possible.

That's right, with only one sensor, accurate positioning is of course impossible.

But what about investing hundreds of pieces at a time?

This is the same as a probe. A single probe cannot detect anything, but when a group of probes covers the entire universe, it is only necessary to compare the collected signals and cooperate with an excellent navigation computer. Easily deduce target location.

At this moment, Kerrigan is using the Shadow of the Void detector as a probe, relying on the huge amount of material and its own excellent computing power, in just a few seconds, Kerrigan has already used the feedback from each detector Value, obtained the coordinates of the dark worm.

The next moment, the fleet moved.The red arc jumped wantonly with the opening of the subspace channel, licking the shield of the battleship, countless stars and nebula silently drew endless arcs in an instant, and the surrounding light suddenly increased to tens of millions of times normal , and then the sound fell silent.

That second was so long, but when that thing appeared in front of her eyes, Oregana had no time to take care of everything.

In the dark field where the nearest star is tens of light-years away, a fireball burns alone in the universe—but is it really a fireball?

Only when you really confirm it with your own eyes at a close distance can you know how terrifying this thing is now.Its diameter is close to [-] kilometers, and its size is close to that of a terrestrial planet, far exceeding the size of all gaseous motherships that have been observed so far.Roaring outside the inner core is not only the compressed atmosphere, but also waves of energy.On the orange-red roiling waves of the atmosphere was a galloping orbit of light—spots of blue light flying around its massive body with dizzying speed, like phosphorous fire rising from a cemetery.

Between the chaotic gas and the entangled vortex, there is a huge consciousness hovering, and the range covered by that consciousness is even larger than that whirling storm.Even Oregana, who is completely ignorant of psychic powers, can feel the emotions leaked out of that consciousness. This feeling is very strange—it's like touching the tentacles of a squid with empty hands and feeling clammy, and passing through that When the long and exaggerated tentacles of consciousness, naturally feel the other party.

If the person who came to this distance was not a clone warrior with a mental toughness like steel, but an ordinary human being, he must have lost his mind or even been assimilated because of the unconscious emotional interference of the super creature.

The horror and strength of the other party made people feel suffocated, but Oregana couldn't help laughing at this moment——
