I think I have assembled the most yy mage army in history - bar none.
Have you ever seen a blood elf mage wearing power armor, spraying plasma tail flames from behind and flying into the sky at supersonic speeds to create blizzards?
Have you ever seen a Gandalf-type old man with a head full of white hair, a white beard on his chin that reaches to the third rib, and every fold on his face revealing a sense of wisdom and erudition, hiding on the ground in a Space Marine armor?
Inside, with half a cigar in his mouth, he was directing arcane missiles while shouting vaguely "lets go! fire and blood!!"?
Uncle Victor, you have fallen.
In the process of using Zerg samples for actual combat exercises, we have been convinced that these mages mobilized from Azeroth can indeed play a very effective role in fighting the Zerg. Although their magic power is not as good as that of the Ravens,
It is a bt-level magic god, but it can also cause various gynecological disorders such as endocrine disorders in the Zerg... cough, and other fatal injuries. In the context of StarCraft, the extremely powerful Zerg are so vulnerable to the special energy attacks of other worlds.
A hit that really surprised people.
Of course, although the mage army can be used as a new force, it is definitely not the main force. This is a battlefield at the interstellar level, and our enemy is a swarm of insects with units of hundreds of millions. Even if we recruit mages from three worlds, their numbers will increase.
It cannot act as the main force, and more importantly, the attacks of mages are only effective against the Zerg. As for dealing with other races in this star area...
I don't think the indigenous mages from Azeroth can compete with the advanced weapons of interstellar civilization.
The real protagonist of the battle is our battleship.
Naturally, the human mages are well aware of this, and they have not shown any dissatisfaction. On the "battlefield of the gods", they have never expected to become a fighting force from the beginning. They just stand in this magnificent foreign land.
Among them, being able to fight side by side with the gods has made these people from other worlds who grew up in the flames of war and worshiped various heroic legends extremely excited.
"We're going to be epic."
Victor, the old mage holding a cigar, said this before coolly pulling down his mask.
Let me reiterate, Uncle Victor, you have fallen.
During the few days that these mage troops were conducting emergency training, Renault had been in a semi-chaotic state. Magic, this kind of thing, had disappeared from the human legends of StarCraft for countless years. They had long forgotten this as they had completely taken the technological route.
This mysterious art that once fascinated countless people, now actually witnessed a living mage army releasing the gorgeous magic in front of them, which shocked many of Renault's staunch materialists.
Even Renault himself is no exception.
I didn't waste time to let him understand the ins and outs of everything, but simply told him two points: "First, there is indeed no magic in this universe. As a native creature of this universe, unless you encounter a miracle (such as
If you meet the Xiling apostle who comes out to make soy sauce or the Dingdang children's shoes who visit privately), you can't expect to learn magic in your life. Secondly, the powerful Xiling Empire's sphere of influence includes other worlds, and these mages you see are all
An army from another universe, they are a vassal race of the Xiling Empire."
Then Renault and his good friends were collectively shocked.
The leader of this batch of mage troops is naturally Jaina. After several days of emergency training, she and her soldiers are almost familiar with the unfamiliar battlefields and enemies here. Well, there is also that body that can make every goblin excited.
The magical armor that self-destructs. Of course, the power armor used by Jaina herself is a specially designed and improved type. This "captain machine", which costs twice as much as ordinary power armor, has close-fitting streamlined lines and basically adopts the armor of the federal ghost agent.
Inspiration (still the idea of Pao Pao, the game geek), wearing it will definitely not cause the bulky feeling of conventional power armor - although most male mages have said that only large power armor weighing half a ton is romantic for men, but I like it
Women with elegant beauty naturally prefer this kind of close-fitting light armor.
However, everything has its pros and cons. The lightness of the armor itself means that the protective capabilities of the improved power armor are far inferior to the universal type. Although its performance is still enough for Victor to defeat a reinforced company of federal marines with his bare hands, its application is still limited.
range, because a large amount of energy load is consumed to strengthen the psionic shield of the armor itself to make up for the lack of physical armor. The magic amplification effect of this improved power armor is always unsatisfactory, so it is set to be used exclusively for the chief.
: As the leader of the Azeroth front, Jaina doesn't have many opportunities to go to the battlefield in person, and even a slightly inferior magic amplification device can be ignored when supplemented by Jaina's own powerful strength.
"Mages of all races have mastered the art of using this magical armor to assist in combat. It is just like what you said, just like a piece of clothing that makes people worry-free," Jaina and I walked side by side in the General City temporary building.
In the opened mage area, he reported to me the training situation of the mage, "We are now learning to adapt to the radar system and various locking images on the mask. Although that thing is convenient, it always makes some older mages at a loss.
.”
This is inevitable. Although Tavel has upgraded a series of advanced equipment installed on the power armor to facilitate long-range combat into fully intelligent ones, those alien natives who have never used high technology have to get used to having a weapon on every enemy's head.
Marking distance information accurate to millimeters still requires a running-in period.
"Then what? Are there any other problems?"
I asked in detail. After all, this batch of power armor was a test product designed in one day. No matter how careful Tavel was, she was also a Xiling apostle, and her lack of understanding of carbon-based life was likely to cause flaws in her results.
.
For example, if you accidentally forget to supply oxygen...well, this shouldn't be a problem, right?
"Everything else is fine, except for three points," Jaina said with some embarrassment. "The first is that the elves, including night elves and blood elves, all think that there is a problem with the design of the helmet of the power armor, and their ears are curled up inside.
It will feel very uncomfortable when it grows up. The second is dwarfs and dwarves. Although the control of the armor is not a problem, they need to put a bunch of things underneath every time they put on the armor, which makes them a little embarrassed. The third is tauren shamans and mages.
...They are too big, and the horns on their heads also require special helmets. In addition, the hooves of the tauren often get stuck in the armor. Thrall and Kane contacted me last evening. The next batch of mage troops will mainly
It's the Thunder Bluff Front, and there are a lot of tauren shamans, so we'd better prepare some extra-large armor for them."
Me: "...I will ask Paopao to add a production line..."
To be honest, just now I don’t know why I suddenly thought of designing a Minotaur machine gunner armor.
Seven days have passed since the insect swarm collapsed.
The detection of the adjacent galaxies has been completed a long time ago. Originally, I planned to use eop-03 to solve the problem, but this time the situation seems not to be simple. According to the pictures sent back by the detector, the planet is full of traces of intelligent life.
, although they have been covered with bug secretions into pitted wrecks, some of the tall buildings can still be clearly distinguished. Through the restoration analysis as much as possible, Renault judged that the ruins existing on this planet should be
Derived from the Protoss.
I have always had a strong interest in this mysterious race, but the other party's stubbornness makes me think that it would be quite troublesome to directly approach them for cooperative development. Now I just happened to find an abandoned colonial star of the other party. I don't want to take advantage of this.
If the planet is sliced up, then I’m really sorry for the more than 100 scientific research ships I brought with me!
Qianqian and I, together with Lilina and the most unreliable trio in the empire, personally led three newly reassembled Eternal-class motherships and 10,000 frigates of various types to this planet we call Pimple Star (Qianqian, this girl
This reconnaissance and extermination mission will be completed by us personally. Of course, this does not mean that the three of us are the most suitable professionals for such high-end tasks.
, but...
The three of us are the most idle and idle guys in the entire Black Egg Star Base Camp right now...
Even my elder sister can serve as a think tank, and little lunatics like Pandora and Viska can be responsible for army expansion and training, but I actually have to work with Qianqian, a crazy girl who thinks all day long, and Lilina, an unreliable girl.
The poisonous-tongued Priestess is classified as a trio of idlers, and can only take on the most unskilled cleaning work. Life, indeed, is like the fragrant West Lake Longjing. Even if you are worth 18,100 pounds, you are destined to be soaked in it in the end.
In the cup...
Although we brought a huge fleet of 10,000 frigates, the main combat force of our operation was the landing force. Vega finally found an opportunity to show off her skills. Planetary landing battles and various searches and infiltration operations are
The armored scorpions are good at it, especially against enemies with a large number of melee units like the Zerg. In the words of these war-loving scorpions, they can give you a satisfying kill of precious targets, both in quantity and quality.
In close combat, a well-trained scorpion can defeat tens of thousands of Zerg "puppies". Even if the Zerg evolves for tens of thousands of years, it will not be able to withstand the thousands of simultaneous slashes that use space folding technology. These scorpions
It will destroy the Zerg's melee troops in the shortest possible time and be responsible for breaking through the enemy's defenses, clearing the way for follow-up troops.
The other part of the ground force is composed of mages. We mixed ravens and human mages. A raven led a hundred human mages to form a special long-range massacre force against the Zerg. The first batch of mages from Azeroth.
A total of ten such teams have been formed, and they will clean every Protos ruin under the cover of the Armored Scorpion, and then allow our inspection team to land safely.
Except for these powerful teams that can be called special forces, the largest number is naturally the general battle sequence composed of regular Xiling soldiers, light vehicles, and individual fighters. These experienced veterans are divided into hundreds of squads with varying numbers of people.
, were dropped into areas that were not very important but still had certain reconnaissance value. Unmanned detectors have already landed near those locations, ensuring the safety of the landing process: Although the Xiling army is powerful and fearless, I don’t like to let myself
Soldiers make insignificant sacrifices.
After some preparations, all the landing troops entered the micro-jump landing module carrying them and began to march towards the entire planet.
A mechanically synthesized female voice resounded through the bridge: "The planetary landing module has entered the launch state. The transmission coordinates have been corrected to the planet surface. Please prepare the first batch of landing units to fight for victory and mission. The glory of His Majesty the Emperor is with you.
exist."
Accompanied by hundreds of bright lights that suddenly hit the planet's surface, our first landing team has safely arrived on the surface.
"...Um...Master God Envoy?" Jaina's somewhat unconfident voice came from the communication device on the bridge. Since this was her first time participating in an operation, in order to set an example, she volunteered to join the first batch of landing troops.
, "This is Gianna, can you hear me?"
"It's very clear. How is the situation there?"
"We have reached the surface safely. It is desolate and... a bit disgusting."
Jaina's voice sounded obedient, and I had no doubt that they had taken over the insect moss directly - there was barely an inch of clean land on the surface of the planet.
"Did you find the enemy?"
"No response - our leader raven is releasing search magic, we will find a place to hide first."
"Well, be careful. Vega and her scorpion soldiers are in your team. Be careful not to stray far from their protective range."
After a brief explanation, I turned my attention back to the series of holographic projections on the bridge. As for Qianqian and Lilina?
These two restless masters have now rushed to the teleporter, waiting to kill everyone.
On the holographic projection in front of me, Pimple...well, hundreds of blue light spots on the surface of Pimple Star are gradually expanding into light spots, which means that our hundreds of landing troops have begun to expand to the periphery, but each troop
The intelligence sent back made me a little confused. So far, they have not encountered a large-scale Zerg army. Only some sporadic stragglers were discovered by the landing team and were eliminated immediately.
This is not normal. It stands to reason that with the reproductive ability of the Zerg, after so many days, even if they are unable to form a climate again, there will not be only this idle force on the entire planet, right? Could it be that those 100 million bugs have already
Is that all their troops on this planet?
The various civilizations that were wiped out by the Zerg would cry! They would really cry!
"Your Majesty, this is the 37th landing force. We have found the intended target. It looks like a Protos palace. No energy residue has been found inside."
Suddenly such a report came from the communicator. I suppressed the doubts in my heart and responded: "Very good, have you noticed the enemy's movement?"
"We experienced three sporadic battles in total. The other party did not show up with large-scale troops, nor did they organize any form of counterattack against our arrival."
"Well, keep moving and stay hidden."
Immediately afterwards, news from various advance teams also came together. Naturally, I could not respond to these messages one by one. Instead, I handed them over to other commanders of the fleet. According to the intelligence they compiled, the bugs on this planet are indeed huge.
Parts are missing.
"Host, have you rescanned the stars and got the results?"
I frowned and asked the air.
"The data is being summarized and compared... The results are the same as the first scan. No traces of insect swarms, no specific energy reactions, and no dangerous energy radiation were found."
Tsk, what's going on with this weird situation? There are traces of insect moss and those slimy creatures everywhere here. Why can't the other party be found? Is it possible that everyone dares to participate in the Queen of Blades' competition to recruit a bride?
As soon as I had this nonsense thought, a voice suddenly came from the communication equipment: "This is the 14th landing force! We have entered the target and initially judged that this is the Protos ritual site. We found a huge
The remains of the insect body, and its DNA samples are being collected... The samples are being compared... Sir! This is an insect queen! Repeat, this is an insect queen!"
"Are you sure? How is that thing hung?"
I was shocked, dead? The insect queen on this planet is already dead? No wonder the enemy can't be found everywhere, their egg-laying machine has been finished after working for a long time!
"Sir, we found a large number of traces of high-temperature melting at the scene. There are scars on the insect queen's body that were burned by high-temperature cutting tools," the commander of the conventional landing force reported in a hurried tone. "There is a certain degree of energy residue at the scene...
Wait! Sir! We have discovered the remnants of Protos’ original psionic energy! The one who killed this female insect may have been the Protoss!”
Proteus? They are on this planet?
This news was immediately conveyed to the minds of every leader of the landing force. After confirming that the alert level dropped by one level, these advance teams immediately expanded the scale of the search. Soon, in several areas close to the search area of the 14th landing force
Within, other troops also found similar traces of battles. It seems that the Protos troops mainly focused on these areas to launch attacks on the Zerg. However, we did not find any corpses of Protos soldiers, and we do not know whether they were killed.
Did the Zerg eat it or eat it or eat it...
Just when we thought everything was going well and the enemy would not appear and we were preparing to deploy scientific research troops, a raven suddenly sent back an emergency communication: "Your Majesty! This is the third raven team! Our druid is here
Obscure life fluctuations have been discovered in every crypt! The detector dropped lost contact a minute ago! We are about to enter the crypt and request follow-up troops to follow up!"
This news finally changed the peaceful exploration process. The two regular troops closest to the Third Raven Team were immediately ordered to move closer to the cave they discovered. I told Qianqian and Lilina the following findings.
, no surprise, these two became excited on the spot!
"Finally we can go on an adventure!! Arjun, let's go quickly!"
This was Qian Qian's cheerful voice. She seemed to have a completely different concept of going deep into the insect nest than a normal girl.
"Great! There's a fight this time!"
Lilina followed Qianqian and cheered. How should I put it? I think the chief priestess of the goddess of life is as unreliable as the gods she believes in...
