The Collection of The End

Chapter 1331: Heart of the Swarm (30)

――TR.82.11.28――

Tarsonis, shaded area.

Kerrigan maintained the "sneak mode" and marched into the depths of the blocked area, while recalling the old knowledge he had seen before.

Alex Riem.

Kerrigan’s ghost partner, training instructor, clearing the target, training instructor, researcher, mutiny accomplice...

After at least two "memory indoctrination" by the Federation, and Emil Mengsk broke the shackles of memory very roughly, Kerrigan himself couldn't tell which "acquaintance" was the real first meeting.

However, since Keha’s assassination failed, her memory became clearer. The original memory was awakened by Amir, and then the other "ghost" memories were awakened one by one according to the method she provided. If it weren't for Nova Tai Pulling the strange thing that has not been tampered with memory at all, a group of well-trained and angry "ghosts", taking advantage of the chaos of the Keha incident, may be able to directly dispose of the entire Federal Assembly. In that case, it will not There will be a situation where the parties are separated at this time.

Well, think about it, it seems that Nova's father is included in the list of federal congressmen that the ghosts are planning to eliminate, so it's not surprising that she directly retorted.

After a failed mutiny, most of the "ghosts" successfully escaped from Tarsonis, but their partners were not so lucky. They had no psionic powers, could not be invisible, and could not escape the federal hunt, although they were valuable personnel. Will not be executed, but the end should not be very good.

The reason why I went to Marsala not long ago was because some former ghosts provided news: After the Federation switched to training "ghosts", the personnel of the original ghost system were basically forced to be recruited as subjects of psionic testing. These testers When experimenting, the kind of narrow "egg shell" was used.

She took a closer look at these projects through the channels of her former colleagues, and roughly determined that Reem would be sent to Marsala by the "Psionic Leapfrogging" project, so she was about to rescue him.

But after arriving at Marsala, she discovered that not only were there bugs, but the people in the eggshells were also inconsistent with the information. The Tosh, who looked like a black bear, made her want to kill him with a shot.

However, although the main purpose of this long journey was not achieved, another thing that had always been of concern was resolved, which is not bad.

Yes, it was the little princess who rescued Keha.

When she first met Emil, her super-spiritual abilities such as psychic flight, psychic lightsaber, and psychic move made Kerrigan think she would die there, but in the end she not only let her go, It also left a certain spiritual imprint to help him get rid of the control of the Federation.

Such a powerful spiritual ability person, if it weren't for the exaggeration of "protecting a planet from being bombed by 10,000 nuclear bombs," no one would have been able to defeat her.

After awakening Emil, Kerrigan avoided Arcturus and Angela and asked her what she needed to do, but the girl seemed to answer suspiciously, "Just do what you want. Yeah, why ask me?".

In other words, she didn’t mean to recruit herself for the “Keha’s children” at all. She used the spiritual imprint to relieve herself of all the brainwashing of the “ghosts” and it was just “want to do”. If she is like some ghost colleagues, stay away from the battlefield. , Find a remote planet to live a peaceful life, she would have no opinion.

Hum... Amir can show favor without retribution, but Kerrigan is not the kind of character who can accept the favor with ease, set a small goal and help them to overthrow the Tyrannian Federation.

As for now... Find Rim first and ask what happened to him.

Brush-boom.

Kerrigan pulled the grappling hook to the top of a building and looked around.

The entire covered area was full of "bugs" and "plants" fighting each other, and only dazzling red and deep black reflected on her goggles.

The monsters of the plant group use parks and green belts as their bases. They expand their sphere of influence by "hugging" some tall buildings and turning them into "nodes". If they are not counted as "Alex Rimm", they are the only one. Troops are that kind of weird vines.

The bug faction occupied chemical factories, food factories, and human cloning production lines, and expanded its territory through "silt" and "tumors". The arms were diverse, the most being the small calf-like beasts and the erect spurs. Insects, which attacked Alex before, were rarely seen as "Thunder Beasts", apparently because they consumed too much resources and did not hatch a few altogether.

The combat units on both sides are fighting and devouring each other like unshakable enemies. Although they have their own victories in different locations, they still maintain a balance of power as a whole.

No, in general, the plant side should be at a disadvantage. After all, Alex has been running around on the battlefield and took personal action, while the powerful psionic response of the insect side has been hiding underground and did not take action personally.

It is worth noting that although there are no ordinary people in the sheltered area, there is still human power. The secret bases that the Federation has placed in this area have been disguised as warehouses, old apartments or garbage dumps. Arrange defense lines and heavy firepower to prevent insects and plants from approaching. Not surprisingly, these places are the first-line places for federal research on insects and plants.

As for Alex's psionic waveform... Kerrigan frowned slightly as he watched the feedback on the goggles. The position of the waveform response was moving at high speed in the entire sheltered area, and she couldn't catch up with her at all.

However, if he finds out his main purpose at this time, he may be stopped at the next destination.

Kerrigan confirmed Alex's course of action again and fired a hook at another building.

The last time he stayed for a long time was...

————

A corner of the sheltered area, a temporary residence of the Federation.

"Fire! Fire! Don't let them come near!"

"Incendiary!"

Da Da Da-boom boom boom!

The bunker was riddled with holes and spewed tongues of fire to the influx of bugs. From time to time, several grenades were thrown out. Several SCVs were desperately repairing them.

After a large number of worms were killed and wounded, they reluctantly changed their travel route and walked around the base.

Obviously, neither insects nor plants have any idea about these temporary locations of the Federation. When they hinder the delivery of troops, they will try to attack them. If they are temporarily unable to attack, then forget it.

"Damn it, this is the third time we have been attacked today," the base commander complained as he watched the bugs evacuating the detour. "I have to apply to move the base."

"Can we still transfer?" a soldier behind him answered.

"New here?" The commander turned his head and glanced at him: "After collecting the nearby intelligence, we can transfer it. If we are lucky, if the intelligence we collected is very valuable, we can leave this ghost place directly."

"What is valuable?" The soldier seemed to be a curious baby.

"Of course it's about these **** bugs and plants—" The commander paused, then suddenly drew his gun and turned to aim at the soldier: "Which part are you from?"

"[It's a pity, I thought you would say more.]" The "soldier"'s voice became hoarse and torn, and his originally normal-looking power armor and weapons and even his limbs began to melt. Almost instantly became a man wearing a black hooded trench coat.

"You--" Obviously, the commander who thought that the other party was a spy from other forces did not expect this development, and was directly stunned.

Huh!

The hooded man suddenly grabbed the commander’s neck, then lifted the opponent up with a force that did not fit his body shape: "[I don’t want to do this, because the memory of'extracting' is too confusing and I can’t find anything. Useful things.]"

In the next second, a certain ink-black liquid gushed from the sleeves of the hooded man, covering his face in the commander's astonished gaze.

boom! Snapped!

At the same moment, a bright trajectory flashed away, and the bullet that created this trajectory directly interrupted the hooded man raising the commander's arm.

"Oh, my God!" The commander who had escaped scrambled and ran away. The hooded man raised his gun but did not dare to shoot.

"[...]" The hooded man stared at his broken arm for a few seconds, and his eyes were more curious than surprised or painful.

Hu Hu Hu-

A few seconds later, the broken arm of the hooded man and the black water that had not been able to hit the target before merged with each other on the ground, turning into a black plant like seaweed, rolling close to his leg, and then got in.

At the same moment, the broken arm of the man with the hood "grew" back along with the tumbling black water, along with the sleeves of the windbreaker.

Shaking his hand, the hooded man raised his head and looked at the top of a building outside the Federal Base. There was a slender figure wearing silver armor and long flaming hair standing there with a rod in her hand. Heavy sniper rifle.

"Come with me, [Alex Riem]." She said, then turned and left.

"[...Hiss.]" The hooded man seemed to have a great reaction to this name. He shook his body slightly, and covered his forehead. Then he squatted slightly, jumped several tens of meters, and stepped on the building. The outer wall followed.

"Uh, boss? Are you okay?" Several Union soldiers approached their commander tremblingly.

"Get out of here!"

————

After a while, there was a square where neither insects nor plants had set foot.

"[I felt your psychic power before, it seems you really know something.]" The hooded man fell from the sky, straightened his collar, and walked towards Kerrigan who was waiting in the center of the square.

"'Alex Riem' your name," Kerrigan turned around and threw him a data pad: "This is your record of your life."

"[Oh...]" The man in the hood, or Alex caught the data board and swiped it a few times: "[The trainer and partner of the'Ghost' defected afterwards?]"

"Of course you didn't defect, otherwise you wouldn't be here," Kerrigan said. "Obviously, you were forced to participate in a very dangerous experiment before becoming...like this."

"[Alex Riem...]" Alex chanted the name, and did not respond to Kerrigan's words.

"I checked several federal bases you attacked and found that you seem to be looking for a list of participants in the biochemical experiment," Kerrigan continued, "So guess you probably forgot who you are."

"[It is true, thank you, Sarah.]" Alex finally responded.

"You remember..."

"[No, I just found some memories based on this name and related records, but there is no real sense of those things that belong to me, and the order of their occurrence seems to be incorrect.]" Alex shook the record board.

"That's because you have been brainwashed by the Federation's'memory infusion'. As far as I know, there have been three times." Kerrigan looked at him: "You...what are your plans now?"

"[These... not enough,]" Alex put aside the record board: "[I want to find out what happened to me, and the research that can create these monsters.]"

"Where did your most recent memory begin?" Kerrigan frowned slightly.

"[I woke up from a'psionic jump cabin',]" Alex said with a haze: "[There are such bugs all around, and the federal emergency alert is ringing, and then, there The base exploded.]"

"Then, your body?"

"[This is why I want to find their test data.]" Alex shook his arm, it melted instantly and turned into a huge sharp claw.

"This..." Although he had expected it before, Kerrigan was shocked by the face deformation.

Alex didn't stop there, and continued to turn his arms into black machetes, giant hammers, and large vines similar to those of plants, as if he was an arsenal.

"[Although the base was blown up, their research results would never be destroyed like this. We all know the federal style,]" Alex sneered: "[As long as the plants and insects are given to them With the illusion of'can control the situation', they will definitely restart the research again, no matter how heavy the casualties caused by maintaining the base here.]"

"Then you..." Kerrigan originally planned to ask Alex if he found it, but after another thought, he must have searched everywhere because he didn't find it, so he changed his word temporarily: "Then how did you fight those bugs? Got up?"

"[Not sure, I am self-defense,]," Alex replied: "[After I woke up, those bugs have been strongly hostile to me, and the plants are very kind. After some battles, I find that I have the same abilities as plants, so naturally I have to stand by them.]"

"Okay, I understand. Next, I will help you find these records." Kerrigan nodded.

Although he made a rhetoric to Arcturus, "I will take care of the spiritual energy of the plant", but if Alex can be developed into a companion, it can be said to be "ok."
