Chapter 90 Negotiations with the Queen of Blades, the whereabouts of the Xel'Naga artifact
This is a big chapter, and I would like to thank the book friends "Tian&*&Gu", "Dragon King in the Wind", "Yu Fox God's 16th Night", "God of Chaos" and "August Flying Snow" for their rewards.

"Psychic spying? Huh, stupid and arrogant Queen of Blades, you can't blame me if you brought it to your door yourself!"
Kerrigan can actually get a glimpse of the thoughts of Gao Xu, the peak god, which shows how powerful his spiritual power is. However, Gao Xu doesn't care. In his opinion, this kind of showing off from a distance is not only unnecessary, but will also make his own.
The location was directly exposed, and originally he could only deduce a rough range. As soon as the Queen of Blades made this telepathic call, Gao Xu immediately followed her.
Don't forget, Gao Xu is also a god-level master who is proficient in spiritual suggestion. His abilities on the spiritual level have been integrated into the seals of the heavens in the realm of creation. Although the level of sophistication is definitely not as good as Kerrigan's, after all, the other party relies on this confusion.
However, Gao Xu has a strength that far exceeds that of Kerrigan. As long as this advantage exists, it is enough to obliterate Kerrigan's strength in spiritual cultivation and gain an overwhelming upper hand.
For example, at this moment, Gao Xu stepped out of the White Jade Sky Tower almost as soon as Kerrigan's mind wavered. The infinite sword light flashed, and without saying a word, a thunderous blow broke through the layers of space, hitting Kerrigan directly.
The Throne of Blades!
How decisive he was in killing Kerrigan. Since he had made up his mind to kill Kerrigan, he didn't even say a word of nonsense and took action without any reservation. Even if a lion fights a rabbit, he would use all his strength!
As Gao Xu entered the state of the strongest and understood the power of dreams, his strength became stronger and stronger, and the integration of the two major systems of ancient martial arts and cultivation became more and more complete. His style of attack began to return to his original nature, no longer gorgeous.
No longer complicated, the simple sword contains unmatched power and terror!
Compared to the siege of the three peak gods in the Battle of Defeating Heaven, Gao Xu's sword light was more solid. The seemingly ordinary Qingyun sword energy contained invisible coercion that swept across the world. Wherever it passed, the clouds moved away. Electricity.
Lightning flashed, mountains and rivers collapsed, the earth roared, the void shook, the gates of heaven opened, and the power of countless rules guarded the four directions, as if guiding the sword light. It created an unworldly scene where all things were created, or the sky collapsed and the earth shattered!
As a result, somewhere in the starry sky that was originally densely populated by swarms of insects, a layer of spiritual shield stirred up, and was immediately shattered and destroyed, revealing Kerrigan's monstrous figure.
Facing the brilliant and unparalleled sword energy that flashed forward, Kerrigan could no longer maintain her previous teasing, her pupils shrank to the extreme, and she instinctively used all her abilities, such as psychic storm, piercing edge, and original sword.
Grasping, Chaos Vortex, etc. are sweeping across the world. That kind of innate pressure makes all the Zerg tremble and lie on the organic matter ground, not daring to move...
However, soon, they discovered incredibly that the queen's aura disappeared!
Disappeared into the core of the swarm, on the throne of the Queen of Blades!!
One sword kill instantly!!!
"Something's wrong!" He felt from afar that Queen of Blades Kerrigan was being torn apart by Qingyun's sword energy, and her remaining body was turned into powder. However, Gao Xu's expression sank, without the slightest hint of joy.
The Queen of Blades is not dead!
The opponent is not an illusion or a clone, but the real body. Gao Xu is sure of this. After a brief confrontation, he can judge that the strength of Queen of Blades Kerrigan is around the fourth level and fifteenth level. The huge gap makes her basically
He couldn't hide it from Gao Xu, the peak god.
But the sword just now was not only to kill the Queen of Blades, but also contained the power of deprivation, intercepting Kerrigan's special mental fluctuations and preparing for the magician's "conspiracy to usurp the throne". Unexpectedly, the sword energy killed her.
Killing Kerrigan went smoothly, but the power of deprivation did not intercept any mental fluctuations at all!
This is not normal!
When all living things are on the verge of death, they cannot suppress the great panic and ups and downs in their souls. No matter how brave and fearless they are before, and how fearless they are about life and death, it is useless, because it is an instinctive reaction, not
Determined by self-will!
In view of this, if Kerrigan really dies, the power of deprivation attached to Gao Xu's sword energy will more or less be able to obtain some mental fluctuations. Now there is none, which means that Kerrigan knows that he will not die, so he can stick to it perfectly.
soul!
Sure enough, the insect swarm that showed signs of chaos calmed down the next moment. If the above is Gao Xu's speculation, this is ironclad proof. If the Queen of Blades dies and the dragons are leaderless, these insect swarms will inevitably be in chaos, even if they have brains.
With the control of insects, there will be no collapse for the time being, and it will not be possible to be so neat.
"Huh? There is one missing brain worm. Is it because the body of the brain worm is used to resurrect the soul and transfer the soul?" Gao Xu immediately checked the number of brain worms. The Queen of Blades' spiritual cultivation has reached its peak. Even he will not show off to the opponent if he does not take the initiative.
Even if the position is actively exposed, there is no way to accurately locate the brain worms. However, the brain worms at the third difficulty level cannot be hidden from the mind. Although the endless sea of worms seems to be boundless, the number of brain worms can also be seen at a glance.
Nothing left.
Ever since, Gao Xu discovered that at the moment of Kerrigan's "defeat", a brainworm also disappeared silently, seemingly replaced by a soul and transformed into...
The reborn Queen of Blades!
Soul transfer, unlimited resurrection!
In fact, this characteristic was already foreshadowed in the original plot. Kerrigan's human body died early in the battle on the capital planet Tarsonis and was nearly torn to pieces by the Zerg army. However, her brain, to be precise,
, her spiritual power, which was almost substantive, was preserved, and then the Zerg master put her into a pupa, which supplied a large amount of nutritional energy unique to the Zerg and resurrected her.
During that period of breaking out of the cocoon, Kerrigan used her psychic power to entrust dreams to Jim Raynor and Mengsk in an attempt to obtain rescue. Unfortunately, they failed to hinder the birth of the Queen of Blades. In the end, the half-human, half-insect mutant with unlimited potential was still born.
.
Since then, the life form of the Queen of Blades has been mutated and sublimated. She is immortal, has endless lifespan, and is equal to the gods and demons of the fourth difficulty level. However, her combat power has not yet reached the fourth difficulty level, and is still at the peak of the third difficulty level. Until the system
Through continuous battles and a series of battles to be crowned king after the death of the Zerg Overlord, she truly became the invincible Queen of Blades whom the blade points to!
"It's trouble, it's big trouble!" Gao Xu muttered to himself. If Kerrigan's spiritual power is further developed and reaches a point where she can be entrusted with the brain worm, incarnate into thousands, and her soul can be continuously transferred, then the trouble will indeed be too big!
The special ability of soul transfer is something that even the fourth-difficulty and thirty-third-level peak demons like Sargeras have. The level of difficulty is off the charts. In this case, unless all the brainworms under Kerrigan are killed,
, otherwise there is nothing you can do about the Queen of Blades, and the weakest Cerebrates are at least Level 3 and Level 7, and they are not weak scum that will die just by blowing your breath. Killing all the Cerebrates is easier said than done?
What's more, the brainworm has become the spreading medium of the Queen of Blades' secondary thoughts. Even the most powerful dark altar warrior of the gods cannot permanently kill it. Every time the reincarnator kills one, Kerrigan will soon be able to reappear.
Resurrection comes out, endless, never-ending!
To put it bluntly, the battle to the end is basically to kill the Zerg with extremely strong reproductive ability in a short period of time!
This is an almost unsolvable problem that even Gao Xu finds difficult to solve!
Taking a step back, what if Gao Xu can deal with the Zerg? What if he uses all his energy to deal with him on top of the Queen of Blades, and the Burning Legion and other armies behind him? What about the resurrection of the Ye sisters?? The most powerful suit
Forging. What should I do if Yao Xue masters the title of Supreme???
While Gao Xu was thinking deeply, Kerrigan also remained silent and did not say any harsh words.
Obviously, she was also frightened by Gao Xu's powerful sword energy, which killed her instantly through the air. Infinite resurrection is infinite resurrection, which does not mean that there is no damage. Kerrigan naturally does not want to be killed continuously when she has a choice.
~~
The two sides faced off silently. Gao Xu recalled the Scarlet Lin Tianlong, and the insect swarm did not dare to pursue it. It began to shrink to a certain extent, and finally surrounded Gao Xu and the Scarlet Lin Tianlong, forming a quiet and strange situation.
.
"Xel'Naga artifact!" Suddenly, Gao Xu popped out a few words without beginning or end, and spread them far away, covering the entire insect swarm army.
"What do you mean?" About half a minute later, the swarm of insects suddenly separated to both sides, and Kerrigan's figure emerged from the crowd. This was a phantom condensed with the power of his mind, floating several feet away from Gao Xu, dead.
Staring over.
"The Xel'Naga artifact can absorb all the genes of the Zerg, and its restraint on you is the greatest restraint on your immortality..." Gao Xu paused for a moment, observing his words and expressions, and was keenly aware of a hint of disapproval on Kerrigan's eyebrows.
With a look of disbelief, he immediately changed his words and said, "Of course, that is what is said in the plot. It cannot be true. In my opinion, not only will the Xel'Naga artifact not cause harm to you, it is also the evolutionary medium you dream of..."
"Evolve into a perfect race that even the Xel'Naga cannot create, right?"
As soon as these words came out, Kerrigan's face finally became cloudy, her eyes trembled, and her slightly hoarse voice sounded, she said bluntly: "The Xel'Naga artifact contains the original power of the stars, which is the same as my original power.
The fusion of Zerg genes can indeed produce a perfect creature that is superior to the Xel'Naga!"
"It turns out that the Xel'Naga artifact has changed from a hostile artifact that can restrain the Queen of Blades to her strongest opportunity. The Queen of Blades already possesses the wisdom and cunning of the human race and the genes of the Zerg race. If it is combined with the protoss of the gods,
With her strength, she can evolve into a perfect race. When the time comes, it will not be impossible for her to become the peak god and demon of the fourth difficulty level!"
Gao Xu was completely deceitful at the beginning. When he said the Xel'Naga artifact, he was throwing out a keyword to see Kerrigan's reaction, and then adapting accordingly.
Kerrigan had just been resurrected from the dead, and she couldn't help but feel a little excited. In addition, how could she be as naughty as Gao Xu? The secret was immediately revealed, and clues emerged.
As long as the other party has needs and concerns, it will be easy to handle. After discovering that the beheading plan may not work, Gao Xu changed his plan again and prepared to fight with the Queen of Blades...
negotiation!
Yes, it's a negotiation.
Judging from the confrontation just now, Kerrigan is not the kind of god and demon who doesn't know how to adapt after suffering a loss, let alone retreat, and fights the enemy to the death, one soldier at a time. She knows choices, knows how to advance and retreat, and is able to bend and stretch. She deserves it.
To lead the Zerg to strength as a queen!
Of course, the most important thing is that she also has needs.
The core of negotiation is everyone getting what they need, which is the so-called bargaining chip. Without the bargaining chip that the other party cares about, it is simply one-sided demands or coercion. There is no way to reach a consensus.
If Kerrigan's pursuit is to lead the swarm army to conquer world after world, invading and invading again, massacring and massacring, then Gao Xu and her can only meet each other in battle, with no room for change!
Fortunately, Kerrigan is not like this. Although her genes contain an endless desire for conquest and she belongs to the warring deity, when she wants to restrain herself, she is able to control the instinct in her genes and make her mind calm.
judgment.
In view of this, Gao Xu proposed an alliance, and the bargaining chip was the Xel'Naga artifact!
"With your strength, you are indeed qualified to obtain the Xel'Naga artifact..." Kerrigan put her hands on her chest and made a unique etiquette, showing respect for the strong. She said slowly, "But Xel'Naga
The Ernaga artifact was split into five fragments and stored in different places, can you get them one by one?"
"Oh?" Gao Xu made a gesture indicating that he was willing to hear the details. Although the technological system was not welcomed in the realm of the gods, giants like the Queen of Blades could not completely restrict its actions. Kerrigan wanted it very much.
What does it mean to obtain the Xel'Naga artifact but still fail to do so?
It shows that the location of those fragments is very particular, and is beyond the scope of the ability of the Queen of Blades!
After deducing with the help of Shen Yanxuan, it was discovered that all the fragments of the Xel'Naga artifact were covered up. Gao Xu became interested and had a few answers in his mind. However, he knew that talking too much would lead to mistakes, so he did not reveal it at this moment.
He didn’t understand the original plot, but adopted a listening attitude.
Gao Xu's move made Kerrigan feel sincerity. The bustling world is all for profit, and the hustle and bustle in the world is for profit. Gao Xu has proven that he has the ability to kill the Zerg, and Kerrigan is not ungrateful.
Regardless of the great prospect of evolving into a perfect race, she must fight to the death with the Samsaras. She smiled slightly and asked leisurely: "Do you know why every time there is a great purge, there is only the majesty of the Zerg and not the protoss?"
Appear? Because they are afraid of me, guard against me, and use all their strength to protect the Xel'Naga artifact fragment of the El Temple!"
The fragment of one of the Xel'Naga artifacts is located in the holy place of the gods - the El Temple!
This is a very reasonable position. Gao Xu just guessed that the Protoss had a place. If the Queen of Blades wants to stop the Zerg army, the only one who can make the Queen of Blades dare not act rashly is the old enemy Protoss!
In the world view of StarCraft, both the Zerg and the Protoss were created by a mysterious race called the Xel'Naga. The Xel'Naga have conquered countless galaxies, but they are not interested in power. They only care about how to create the perfect planet.
Life forms, unfortunately, most of the creations are monsters or mutated failures!
The Protoss was once a work that was close to perfection and most valued by the Xel'Naga. Unfortunately, it was ultimately limited by the pride of character and the isolation of classes. It lost its vital purity and failed to meet the requirements of the Xel'Naga. The Xel'Naga
Finally, he left the Protoss. The Protoss regarded this departure as a betrayal and launched an attack on Xel'Naga, but was easily blocked...
After the Protoss, the Xel'Naga created the Zerg. In some ways, the Zerg are more powerful than the Protoss. They continue to multiply and evolve, but after mastering the power of psionic energy, they actively cut off the spiritual connection with the Xel'Naga, allowing
It was unable to detect the movements of the Zerg, and immediately launched an extremely ferocious offensive towards the Xel'Naga!
This time, Xel'Naga was no longer as easy as dealing with the Protoss. Their fleet was destroyed and almost all the tribesmen were killed or injured!
What a tragedy it is to be destroyed by the species you created...
Of course, those who understand the original plot of StarCraft all know that the Xel'Naga have not completely withdrawn from the stage of history, and their influence is still extremely huge. For example, the El Temple of the Protoss is the artifact left by the Xel'Naga, connecting
The most powerful energy in the universe, the Gods were able to recover their lost spiritual power and prosper again, and the El Temple was indispensable!
Now, the Xel'Naga artifact that Kerrigan coveted is among them. Unlike the destruction of the main plot of StarCraft, the real temple is guarded by countless powerful templar warriors. It is a real iron wall and is impregnable.
However, this fragment has also become a worry for the Protoss. The Queen of Blades is so powerful, and she rules the endless sea of insects. Once the temple is slightly empty, the other party may take the opportunity to kill it, so it is never seen during the Great Purge.
When it comes to the Protoss, they are all guarding the fragments in their hometown. They will wait until they have avoided the limelight before coming out for activities~~
"The peak powerhouse of the Protoss may not be as powerful as Kerrigan, nor can he transfer his soul and be resurrected continuously, but the opponent has the home field advantage, and the Xel'Naga artifact has been in the temple that has been in operation for countless years. It may also involve the power of faith and
The mysterious Xel'Naga tribe is indeed not an easy task!"
Gao Xu thought about it carefully and found that even if he turned on the strongest state and forced his way into the El Temple, he would not be absolutely sure to seize the Xel'Naga artifact. A detailed layout would be needed. In that case, it would take a lot of time and the gain would outweigh the loss.
Then he continued to ask, "What about the other fragments?"
When he asked this question, he originally thought that all five fragments were obtained by the gods, or the human empire, UED (United Earth Council). If he wanted to take the fragments, he naturally picked an easier one to start with. With one fragment
, under the breath induction, it is much easier to lock other fragments!
Who knew that Kerrigan gave an answer that was beyond Gao Xu's expectations: "The second fragment is in the hands of Sargeras, the leader of the Burning Legion!"
"Sargeras...what does this have to do with Sargeras?" Gao Xu was startled. The Xel'Naga artifact was obviously a special item from the StarCraft world, and it should have nothing to do with Sargeras in the World of Warcraft.
"Of course there is, because here I also have the divine object that Sargeras tried every possible means to get!" The next moment, Kerrigan's mental projection curled his lips, and suddenly took out a giant sword fragment from a snake tentacle, and it rose up
There was endless flames. It was just an illusion, but it contained unimaginable sharpness and divine power. The sword of the Five Emperors in Gao Xu's hand even trembled, and he took the initiative to provoke!
Thoughts were swirling in Gao Xu's mind. As soon as he recognized the origin of this fragment, his eyes suddenly widened:
"This is...Tisharacher? A fragment of the Flame Ripper?"
