Through the external camera in front of the lifeboat, the hammer-shaped bow of the bright purple-painted Nova Squadron battlecruiser in the field of vision was gradually enlarging in Augustus's eyes. Rather than twinkling under the light of stars
Compared with the magnificent gold-edged battleship hull, this lifeboat is just a fruit fly about to land on a grape.
The Loyalty is a majestic Behemoth-class battlecruiser that was finally completed and launched at the Bennett Shipyard. It was built during the Kailian War and re-upgraded during the Korhal IV Rebellion.
A prototype Titan reactor was built to provide energy for more laser cannons and giant fusion cannons that may be installed in the future.
Although the human battlecruisers are not as gorgeous and exquisite as the protoss battleships, they are still the pride of the Tyranids with their powerful shapes, spectacular stainless steel armor, and bright white lights embellished on them.
The model and representative of human giant ships and cannons in this era.
This lifeboat marked 303 began to approach the battlecruiser Loyalty and drove along the side close to the bright purple armor plate. Looking forward along the side, another Nova Squadron Behemoth-class battlecruiser
Just ahead and to the right of the bow of the lifeboat, about a dozen miles away, another battleship of the same class was parallel to the Loyalty, but farther away.
All battleships and escorting frigates, destroyers, supply ships and troop carriers are maintaining relatively stationary and high-speed movements. Driving a spaceship smoothly into the dock berth places extremely high demands on the spacecraft pilot.
The lifeboat hovered at the dock entrance of the Loyalty for a few minutes, waiting for the dock's landing module to open. Holler pulled out a 2D control panel from next to his seat and entered a series of codes on it before opening the landing module's door.
It was as if a steel giant faced space and opened his mouth.
The blue light at the dock entrance immediately poured out from it. When the lifeboat sailed into the port, Augustus noticed that several T-280 Tarsonis space engineering vehicles were fixed by cables on the alloy steel elevated frame at the dock entrance.
Moving at the edge of the deck, the faint light of the welding fire disappeared briefly.
Seven other lifeboats of the same model followed closely. These spacecraft, which were supposed to be full of wounded and fleeing people, did not arouse the vigilance of the captain of the Loyalty. After learning that Colonel Holler was on the first lifeboat,
These ships were ignored.
Augustus stood up the moment the lifeboat stopped and followed Holler down the alloy gangway.
The dock berth of the Loyalty is very empty. Most of the fighter planes and transport aircraft are performing tasks outside. There are only various ground crews wearing orange work clothes. They are driving space engineering vehicles and unloading robots to and from the dock.
It is to repair damaged aircraft.
When Holler walked down the gangway, a Nova Squadron officer wearing dark purple CMC-300 powered armor was running towards him with several soldiers. There were not many soldiers guarding here, about less than
A combat platoon man.
Even in wars between humans, boarding battles rarely occur. Only the Kaimorians will use their numerous and fast assault boats to seize Federation battlecruisers in fleet battles. This is also the way for interstellar pirates to deal with large-scale battleships.
The usual method used by freighters.
"Colonel Holler, thank God you are still alive. Without your orders, the entire squadron would be in chaos." The Nova Squadron officer was a tall, thin man with rough eyebrows. He lowered his helmet visor so that Holler could see it.
Check his face. He may not be very familiar with Holler, but at least he knows who his commander is.
The officer was stunned for a moment when he saw Augustus in crimson power armor behind Holler, and then he rubbed his eyes: "Augustus Mengsk...shit...
....I must be dreaming."
The officer took a few steps back, his face darkened with fear. For a rebel leader with such a reputation as Augustus Mengsk, his first reaction was not that Holler had captured Augustus, but that Augustus
They all descended from the sky with their human and divine soldiers.
Before he could say anything, Tychus stepped out from behind Augustus, took two quick steps, clenched his iron fist and hit him. The officer immediately fell on his back, with blood pouring out from his broken nose.
, his eyes rolled white.
"Wake up from this nightmare, poor thing." Tychus looked at his bloody fist, raised his chin, and the scars on his face looked even more ferocious.
"Tykes Finlay, Demon of Heaven." The remaining soldiers of Nova Squadron were stunned on the spot. Only another officer with the rank of lieutenant suddenly shouted: "Rebels..."
Before he could finish speaking, Tychus struck him cleanly to the ground with another fast and hard punch.
"It's nice to meet you, sweetheart." He had just suffered a defeat at Holler's place and was full of anger.
"I am Colonel Jackson Holler." Holler looked at the soldiers who were at a loss for words and had stunned expressions: "The rebels have invaded this battleship. I need you to get ready in twenty seconds.
Defeat the enemy."
"Yes, sir, fighting for the Union." The soldiers immediately stood up straight and saluted Holler.
Just looking at their appearance, it would be difficult for ordinary people to spot the difference between resocialized soldiers and ordinary soldiers, but with a little more attention, you can notice the barcodes on the back of their helmets. The Federation has never regarded resocialized soldiers as human beings.
"Soldiers, remember your mission. Order and fairness are the cornerstones of the Terran Federation." Holler said.
"Always loyal."
"Are they idiots?" Tychus felt bored and returned to the lifeboat to take out his heavy machine gun.
At the same time, it was difficult for Tychus to make such a big noise without attracting the attention of the ground crews above the dock. Some of them were still busy with their work, but they all realized that something was wrong.
A federal engineer who was sitting on a pile of supply boxes and smoking a cigarette shouted loudly: "I said, what is going on? Those two soldiers look seriously injured."
Most of the ground crews and engineers in the Loyalty dock did not dare to speak. There were always a few people who were desperate and confused about the situation and tried to figure out what was going on by shouting.
"I, Colonel Holler, there are rebels mixed into this spaceship." Holler replied without changing his expression: "If they want to seize control of this battleship, they must eliminate this group of rebels."
"Okay, okay... aren't there enough troubles with the zerg and protoss?" The engineer believed it, but when he saw clearly who were getting off the lifeboat, he almost jumped out of the supply box
It fell down.
Stepping out of the lifeboat were not soldiers, engineers, and scientists, but protoss templars in shining armor. Those protoss warriors stepped out of the lifeboat one after another, thousands of sparkling blue eyes looking towards
pointing in the same direction.
This time, the engineer did not dare to speak anymore.
Augustus and Radnarnix looked at each other. The latter gave an order, and a large number of Protoss Templars rushed into the corridors and passage entrances of the ship. Any human soldiers who dared to resist them were killed by the spirit templars.
It can be cut with a sharp blade and blood will flow freely.
"Follow me, Marshal." Holler made a gesture and asked his Nova Squadron resocialized soldiers to walk at the front, heading all the way to the vertical ladder with indicator arrows.
"You'd better not lead us into a trap." Tychus picked up his Persuader heavy machine gun: "I will keep an eye on you, do you understand? If you want to betray us, I will kill you
His skull was smashed."
"The Federation wouldn't plant a spy at the expense of so many warships, would it?" Holler said.
"That's not possible. Who knows what's in that ghost's head of yours. You may hate the Terran Federation, but you may not like us." Tychus shook his head and said.
"Yes, I do not like you." Holler said: "If you really think that I can do witchcraft, then you'd better be careful." (Jackson Holler is the director of the Tyranid Empire's Hidden Blade-Ghost Agent Program
A member of the United States and one of the first psykers to use terrazine on themselves.)
Augustus ignored the quarrel between the two men. Tychus was not liked to begin with, and Holler was obviously a very sophisticated and ambitious man. This kind of power-seeking person is not so difficult to control.
Tychus is actually not very keen on reaching the upper echelons of the revolutionary army - although he feels that that is not bad, as a higher position is more conducive to him using his power for personal gain.
Tychus was full of thoughts of returning to his old profession if the revolution failed. He was a chaotic factor, but for Augustus he was still much more reliable than Holler, who had just surrendered.
After Augustus followed Holler into the elevator, the alarm inside the Loyalty finally sounded, and the captain of the ship had obviously seen clearly what happened through the dock's surveillance screen: "I am Loyalty."
Captain Joe, we have been invaded. Jackson Holler betrayed the Confederacy, I repeat, Jackson Holler betrayed the Confederacy, and he is no longer our commander."
"Protoss, they are coming. Augustus Mengsk is bringing them here! They are Augustus' rebels! Run!"
"This is a trap, we are surrounded, evacuate immediately!"
"As you say, I'm not a devil." Augustus thought that they didn't need to be so nervous.
The elevator kept rising, and when it stopped, it was already on the uppermost main deck. The corridor leading to the command area cabin was already filled with fully armed Nova Squadron marines.
"Fire!" the officer commanding the unit immediately shouted.
"Stand at attention." Holler straightened his military cap and said calmly.
"Hold your gun and withdraw the bullets."
Dozens of soldiers in purple power armor responded to Holler's order with a series of flawless movements of standing at attention and holding their guns. The tinkling sound of bullets falling was clear in the corridor inside the ship that suddenly became quiet.
Audible.
All resocialized soldiers recognize who Holler is. In their neuromodified brains, as the supreme commander of Nova Squadron, Holler's orders are obviously higher than those of anyone else.
"Damn it, why did you betray us? You treacherous dog." The Nova Squadron officer said as he took out his own P-220 electromagnetic pistol and aimed it at Holler.
"I'm sorry." Holler's black pupils turned golden.
The officer then turned the gun on himself and fired.
"Who are these people?" Tychus had goosebumps all over his body. At this moment, Tychus suddenly remembered the red-haired female ghost next to Augustus. Since Kerrigan served Augustus,
She rarely kills people anymore, which makes Tychus almost forget that high-level human psykers are those who can kill others just by looking at them.
High-level psykers are very rare, and tortured childhoods often make them more cold-blooded and even have twisted personalities than ordinary ghost agents, but this type of people have a purer mind.
In less than a second, Holler lowered his head and raised it again, walking past a group of Nova Squadron soldiers who were standing at attention on both sides of the corridor waiting for orders. The thin, resolute faces of these soldiers were reflected in their masks.
Face.
"Does it hurt you to kill someone?" Augustus asked Holler.
"...Yes, Marshal, the memory of the deceased before death will be rooted in my mind. Only brainwashing can forget it all." Holler hesitated and replied: "But I cannot be brainwashed, that is,
Said I couldn't forget those memories."
"Then you'd better not do that after this," said Augustus.
Augustus was convinced that Jackson Holler was probably the most powerful psyker he had ever seen besides Kerrigan and Nova, and was one of the very few who had special abilities. And, at least in his case
It seems that this person is not hopeless.
Holler continued to move forward, and almost every step of the way, someone rushed out to stop him. The federal colonel only wore a blue navy uniform and a federal guard medal on his shoulder, but no one could hurt him.
When they rushed into the bridge, the Templars of Radnarniks were already waiting for them. The bridge was full of traces of a fierce battle. The captain of the Loyalty collapsed to the ground, with his feet at his feet.
An electromagnetic rifle cut off by a psychic blade.
"Lieutenant Colonel Joe, there is no need to work for the Federation anymore. Sooner or later, they will play with fire and burn themselves." Holler said and walked to the captain of the Loyalty: "It is time to establish a new order. The zerg and protoss are poisoning our homeland.
, the Tyranids need a clear leader."
"He is Augustus Mengsk."
The lieutenant colonel didn't speak, just remained silent.
Outside the bridge of the Loyalty, the formation of the Nova Squadron fleet was in chaos. The four battlecruisers supporting Holler were firing on the remaining battleships. When Augustus looked over, a Nova Squadron battlecruiser was firing on the remaining battleships.
Hundreds of anti-air missiles were ejected at her sister ship, leaving a large trace of burns and damage on the side of the battleship.
Although the number of rebel warships was not dominant, because the federal warships did not know which warships had betrayed the federation, after several Nova Squadron warships jumped away first, the remaining federal warships began to retreat steadily.
