Chapter 699

Freya smiled and said: "An old man came from afar, and he gave me a golden seed, and said that it was a seed with magical power, and it would grow everything I wanted... the spring I bury it in the soil, drink tea from the mountain spring, and tell it what it likes to hear, and then in autumn... guess what?"

"What's the matter?"

Xiao Nizi put her arms around his neck, rubbed against his chin with her flushed cheeks, and said excitedly: "I have really harvested a lot of Tang Fang, there are so many in a basket..."

"..." Captain Tang was speechless for a while: "Are you sure you didn't collect potatoes?"

She wrinkled her little nose and said, "I hate potatoes."

Tang Fang was too lazy to talk nonsense with her, and brought Egg Stetmann from the system space back to the laboratory.

The funny technical geek was stunned by the scene in front of him, with an ugly expression like someone snatched his puffs: "Oh, my God, look what you have done...my laboratory!"

"Mistake, mistake..." Tang Fang was a little embarrassed.

It is an indisputable fact that his whim destroyed the laboratory of the technical house. Although most of the equipment can be repaired, it will take a certain amount of time, which will undoubtedly bring a lot of trouble to the technical house.

"My dear friend, think of 'Cabretto', think of the prosperity and colorful nightlife of the capital, the suffering in front of you is so insignificant."

He said in a bewitching voice, "Fixing them is a trivial matter for a brilliant scientist like you."

Iger had a smug expression on his face, remembering the days on the Hyperion before, when Renault praised him so much, that bullying guy would only call brothers like Artanis and Zeratul. Being entangled with beauties like Kerrigan, Nova, and Ariel, how can you compare with the new boss.

At least... at least Captain Tang was not stingy with praise, affirming his achievements and value.

"Well... Iger, I'll call the logistics maintenance team to come over and see if there's anything I can do to help. By the way, check if Bai Hao and the others are injured. See you later."

"Come to the captain's room for tea when you have time..." After leaving these words, he took Freya's little hand and ran out of the laboratory.

The funny technical nerd blinked, feeling like being betrayed.

………………

Tang Fang first went to the rest hall outside the medical laboratory to meet Bai Hao and the others,

Knowing that everyone is in good health, I feel relieved, and then report what happened in the laboratory. And part of the speculation about the origin of "Fairy Dirge" told Valentine and others, and then drove Freya back to the room, and finally had time to retrieve the new elements of the system space.

According to his guess, "Fairy Dirge" comes from the Ipsilon civilization and should unlock the Protoss unit.

What could it be?

He selected the probe. Browsing through the building items, I found that there are no new units to unlock.

Then there are portals, mechanical tables, and star gates, and there are no new expansion units.

"Could it be... a hero unit?"

The cursor switches to the Protoss Nexus, and the core of the mothership is still locked, as are Zeratul and Gan Cui Lock, and no new elements have been found.

"Not a protoss unit?" He frowned, and called Emma instead: "Analyze the system log and find the location of the change."

"Please wait, Commander."

A few breaths. Emma sent a reply: "Commander, according to the memory address recorded in the system log, the new element should be located in the fourth base."

Fourth base? Sarnaga? Mixed body?

He remembered that there was no movement after the fourth base appeared. Other than the Voidseeker expansion to go with Zeratul, there are no new unlocks. Without the dark altar, it is impossible to build the obelisk of the hybrid body, and naturally it is impossible to build the experimental tube of the hybrid body to produce the hybrid body.

There was no point in thinking wildly, and he quickly sank his consciousness into the fourth base.

The Obelisk Relay Station of the Temple of Chaos is immersed in gloom. Exuding a cold breath, the complicated energy patterns flicker on and off. The wave light illuminated by the naaru projection in front flickers.

He didn't check it to see if there are any new elements to unlock, because no!

The new element is right in front of you. To be precise, it stands directly in front of the Obelisk Relay Station of the Temple of Hunyuan.

A piece of debris was suspended above the newly-appeared circular platform, slowly rotating between the cylindrical light curtains, occasionally bouncing a blue arc of light.

Looking at the blue-black shard, Tang Fang had a strange expression on his face.

You don't need to click, you know what it's called.

He is not unfamiliar with this thing at all, he is very familiar with it, and even said that he has known it for a long time.

The key prop throughout the entire Wings of Liberty campaign can purify the Queen of Blades' fetish --- yes, it is the Xel'Naga artifact, which is called the keystone by Zeratul.

Whether it is StarCraft 1 or StarCraft 2, it is an existence that cannot be ignored.

"It's actually this thing!" Tang Fang was speechless. He never thought that "Fairy Dirge" would unlock the keystone, which also confirmed the extraordinaryness of "Fairy Dirge".

Keystones have many functions in StarCraft, such as imprisoning, weakening, purifying, and even destroying Zerg and Protoss units, absorbing energy from the void, creating shock waves, etc., fully worthy of the name "artifact".

But in this world, what use does it have? Can the phagosome be purified?

"Fairy Elegy" has the effect of suppressing the activity of phagocytic cells. According to Sister Logic's consistent logic, there is a certain degree of correlation between the information carrier and the unlocking item. Maybe the reason why "Fairy Elegy" can unlock the keystone is precisely because The abilities of the two are similar, and both can suppress the phagosome.

Regrettably, the keystone in front of him is not a complete keystone, but a fragmented state from the Wings of Liberty battle. There is only one piece here, and there are still four pieces to be combined into a real keystone to obtain unparalleled abilities.

He switched the focus to the circular platform, and it was indeed displayed as "Sarna Keystone Fragment". There is an option to "Synthesize Complete Sarnak Keystone" in the menu bar on the right. It is currently locked, and there is a red highlight when the cursor moves over. : "The keystone is incomplete, and the current number of fragments is 1/5."

In other words, to fully unlock the Xel'Naga Keystone, another 4 fragments are required.

He just couldn't complain. He also has to repeat what Renault has done --- collect artifact fragments.

The key is how to collect the remaining 4 fragments? Could it be that, like this time, another "Fairy Dirge" is needed?

In fact, Linglong and Yingluo still have 2 small crystals, but he will not joke about the lives of the two girls, and he doesn't think such small crystals will unlock the keystone fragments.

"It seems that... if you want to continue unlocking the keystone fragments, the most reasonable way is to dig out the secrets of God's Armed Forces."

Whether it's "Fairy Dirge" or a mechanically intelligent brain. All things that matter to him.

He wondered even more where God Armed those guys got them from.

"Khanos... Hymnwell... huh..."

After inspecting the unlocked items of the Sael'Naga base, he was about to withdraw his consciousness from the system space, when suddenly a mysterious force from nothingness forcibly imprisoned him.

"Emma, ​​what's the matter?"

There was no answer, and even the divine sense was squeezed out of the Sarnaga base and came to the selection interface of the four-clan base.

"Emma...Emma...what the hell is going on?"

Still no answer. Deathly silence. Not only that, even the emblems of the four clans also changed from bright to dark, and the interstellar system slowly went offline.

"Sister Logic, come out!"

He didn't panic too much, whether it was the Protoss Base Expansion Generation 1 building. It is still the "Smart Core" that unlocks the classic units of the Terran, and the interstellar system will be offline and then restarted, refreshing the database, and unlocking new elements. It's like a game that needs to be closed before being updated, and then the data can be upgraded to obtain new plots, new props, or new characters.

In fact, the "ultra-dimensional Vientiane Ball System" that supports the operation of the interstellar system has never stopped operating. It is the logic sister that Tang Fang said. Just like the metaphor above, if the interstellar system is a game, the super-dimensional universal ball system is the computer itself.

It turns out. There was no point in his yelling.

His consciousness was kicked out again, from the interface of the interstellar system into a very strange space, he was sure... he had never been here before.

More importantly, he had absolutely no way of controlling his consciousness to leave, and was still imprisoned by a certain mysterious force.

In line with the idea that what comes is safe, he carefully looked at the surrounding environment.

Matter like a dust cloud permeated the distant place. There are stars dotted in it, making this space look like a miniature version of the universe.

directly below consciousness. It is a rapidly spinning spherical system, with countless semi-annular light bands of different sizes in different orbits. Rotate around the central core with different motion directions and different speeds.

If you observe carefully, you can see silver-white brilliance flowing on the semi-annular light belt. These brilliance flow on the surface of the semi-annular light belt like a semi-annular light belt revolving around the central core, and look mysterious from a distance. With the taste of science fiction.

The "line of sight" continued downward, and through the gap that finally appeared between the semi-circular light belts, he finally saw the tip of the iceberg of the central core.

It's bright, brighter than the semi-ringed light outside.

Until he used his "sight" to the maximum, he finally saw a huge ball of light in the storm of silver light that could drown out all colors.

Unlike a black hole that can swallow even light, it is very bright, even brighter than a burning star. The endless rays of light burst out from the surface of the photosphere, thus evolving a light storm that illuminates everything.

Fortunately, it was only his consciousness that came here, not himself, otherwise... Regardless of whether his life could be saved, at least a pair of eyes would not be saved.

Fortunately, those semi-annular light belts can absorb the light emitted by the photosphere to the maximum and turn them into silver brilliance flowing on the surface. This reminds him of a word Emma once said to him, which is also an interstellar unit. The complete name of the summoning system --- the ultra-dimensional Vientiane ball system based on Baidao.

I'm afraid that the sphere of light that never stops radiating energy is the so-called Baidao, and the semi-circular light belts that revolve around it are the ultra-dimensional Vientiane sphere system.

He had no concept of the whole system before, but now he finally has some understanding, although it is only superficial.

He knew that it must be Sister Logic who transformed the originally higher-dimensional system into a three-dimensional model and projected it into his sea of ​​consciousness in order to let him understand the system more intuitively.

But... why did "she" do this?

At this moment, the sudden change explained Sister Logic's motive for doing so.

The central core surrounded by many semi-circular light belts ejected rays of seven-colored light, which were like gorgeous auroras, drifting upwards in the silver-white ocean. It turns into strips of rainbow silk yarn, spinning all the way, and merges into the outer semi-circular light belt.

The silver light flowing on the surface of the light belt began to be replaced by neon, and the ultra-dimensional Vientiane ball system emitted thousands of rays of light, and then. A voice sounded in my mind.

"A usable energy source is detected, and the conversion program starts..."

"The system core level 1 has been detected, the target has been located, the circuit matrix has been opened, and charging has begun..."

"The integration program starts..."

"Integration progress 12%...22%...50%...99%..."

"The integration is complete..."

"The data core has woken up."

"Detected system core level 2, optimize resource ratio. Update system information..."

"The StarCraft module has responded, the content is loading, please wait..."

"The system is back online."

It's been a long time since he heard Sister Logic's unemotional metallic tone, and it feels like he hasn't seen it for a long time.

Such emotions did not last long, and the consciousness was pulled back to the selection interface of the Star System 4 family base.

"Congratulations, Commander. The core of the system has been upgraded, and the current level is 2."

Emma's greeting gave him a sense of intimacy, but what was even more exciting was that the core of the system had been upgraded from level 1 to level 2.

He still remembered what Emma said to him after Bechymos was unlocked. Because the system core level was too low, the epic unit that the interstellar system could accommodate was limited to 1. Now the system core level has been raised to 2. Naturally, it means that more epic units can be unlocked.

For a mobile military fortress like Behemoth, the offensive and defensive battle of "Mubarak" has proved its powerful effect, if there are a few more heads. It is conceivable how much it will improve the military strength of "Morning Star Casting".

Now that Bai Yue has merged with Zagara's memory, he can command Behemoth like Izsha, and it's time for him to display the energy that a swarm commander should have.

More importantly, epic units like Behemoth can expand the population of the corresponding race! This is its most powerful role.

Tang Fang put his consciousness into the Zerg base for the first time, selected the main nest, and saw that Bechymos's option had changed from gray to highlighted.

He moves the cursor over. 1000w crystal, 1000w gas. He couldn't help but shake his head at the consumption of 16 people, and then looked at the number of system resources. The gas is 226435, which is still the result of absorbing the 200 tons of zero elements in Behemoth's body, and the crystal resources are sufficient, more than 24 million.

Thinking of the big deal just negotiated with His Majesty the King, 20 million gas will be credited to the account, I thought life would be easier in the future, how could I have thought that an Abathur and a Behemoth would clean up the resources net.

Others thought that he was the head of the "Morning Star Casting" family, and he was extremely rich. Only he himself knew how difficult life was. A group of old people out there who are blinded by lard are always plotting against him, and they still have a big appetite in their heads. Drinking zero vegetarian food is like drinking water, and they don't even give them a chance to bargain.

"Oh, the landlord's family has no food left!"

When he sighed and complained in a low voice about his ill-fated fate, Emma interrupted his cranky thoughts: "Commander, the system core level upgrade is not just to expand the capacity of a Bechymos, in fact, now the system can The number of epic units that can be accommodated is 3, and the number of hero units is 9, which is 3 times that of the system core level 1."

He stayed for a while, with a wry smile on the corner of his mouth, and thought: Well, 2 Behemoths + 1 Abathur, that's 30 million crystals and 30 million gas. It's not enough for him to squander.

Why is my life so miserable... Well, how about you play Henrietta and get some more from the old man?

Zerg units are different from humans and gods. The quality of individual soldiers is low. Their most powerful feature is their huge number.

Of the three clans under Tang Fang, the fastest unlocking progress is the Zerg, then the Human, and finally the Protoss. When the scale of "Morning Star Foundry" is getting bigger and bigger, the enemies it faces are getting stronger and stronger. Now that the Star Alliance is about to fight against the Sulu Empire and the Monya Empire, as the core figure who provoked this storm, he naturally cannot stay out of it.

Facing the corps-level battle order between Monya and Sulu, as well as regional battles that are different from fixed-point battles, the previous combat methods can no longer keep up with the development of the situation. In order to survive the next storm of war, he must It is necessary to further expand the scale of controllable forces in hand.

The upgrade of the system core can be said to be a timely help. If 2 Behemoths can be added again, the Zerg population limit will be increased to 4000, which will greatly increase his military strength.

"Zero Su...Zero Su..."

Returning from "Georgia" to "Aladale", he once sent Bai Hao to drive the "Nightmare" to the two gas giant planets "Kalketier" and "Bonatia" in the star system to investigate whether there is zero or not. Su element deposits, the results are disappointing, only zero element fluctuations were detected in "Kalketier", and the amount is extremely rare and scattered. According to the calculation of "Nightmare", even if all the zero element ore is collected, after refining, the remaining Under 70 tons is not bad.

70 tons of zero elements = 7w gas.

First, the inventory was too small, and second, it took too much time. Considering the current situation, he could only focus on the political storm in the United Kingdom of Turanx.

"It would be nice to have a gas giant planet made entirely of zero elements."

He shook his head, waved away this unrealistic thought, and remembered Emma's words just now --- system core level 2 compared with system core level 1, the system capacity of hero units and epic units has increased 3 times.

That is to say, before this, Izsha + Zagara + Egg Stetman have reached the upper limit of hero units. If the system core is not upgraded, even if the resources are sufficient, the fourth hero unit cannot be produced. . (to be continued)
