Chapter 860: Temple of Darkness (Part 1)

phone-reading

Just as he was using Cupid to comfort himself, the detector responsible for scanning the structure of the console equipment in detail sent a second image data, which caught his attention. ( )

Before he had time to think about it, he summoned a flying dragon, rolled his body and quickly flew to the area where the second detector was located.

At this moment, the excitement on his face was even better than seeing those zero isotopes at the beginning.

A few minutes later, Feilong led him to an area near the core of the black ball. This place is not empty, and there are many fragments formed after the control platform is broken floating in the darkness.

According to Emma's analysis, when the platform is complete, it should be a sphere very similar in shape to the black ball, but the diameter is very short, about 2 kilometers, which is one percent of the diameter of the black ball.

But regardless of the size, it really confirms his complaints that there is another Theta quadrant in the Nesita quadrant. Fortunately, this situation was broken by the flames of war, and the core console was broken into several pieces of different sizes.

His target was the largest ring-shaped fragment in the wreckage. Although the energy response had almost disappeared, the gravity compensation mechanism was still there, and many building debris were adsorbed on it.

Tang Fang landed on it, and the weak kinetic energy impact caused the ring to vibrate slightly, but because the mass was not small and the inertia was large, there was no substantial displacement.

After landing, turn off the gravity simulator of the harsh-environment protective suit, identify the direction, and walk towards a revolving staircase covered with debris tens of meters away.

Of course his target was not the worthless fragments, but the things buried under the spiral staircase.

No, it wasn't a thing, it was a person—the Ipsilonian, who was also the cause of his excitement.

From the outer quadrant to the inner quadrant, from the circular track to the engineering platform, you can see the wreckage of the ship, the body of the statue guard, and the real Ypsi dragon.

Because of those speculations and the situation in the Lost Land, he originally thought that the West Tower quadrant was only guarded by statues, and that there would be no complete Ipsi dragon corpses.

But he was wrong. The second detector found an anomaly while scanning the console. There are no statue guards in the inner core of the black ball, only 2 substances that are suspected to be corpses of organic creatures.

With excitement and anticipation, he walked to an area next to the half-collapsed spiral staircase and squatted down, cleaning up the building debris with his hands, gradually revealing a gray face.

He has seen the Epsi Dragon in Liana's memory, and he also obtained a highly damaged remains of the Epsi Dragon from the Nasero God Armed Branch, knowing that the real Ipsi Dragon has a faint Blue skin, taller than a human body, hair made of wrinkled soft tissue.

But the so-called Ipsi dragon corpse in front of me is very different, not only the skin color is very different, but also the hair is very strange. It is not a wrinkled soft tissue, but dark blue diamond-shaped scales, spreading from the top of the head to the cheeks.

"What's going on here?" He frowned;

It's not the Epsilon... If it's not the Epsilon, who are they? Why is it here?

Could it be... is it the enemy of the Epsilon? The race that turned 'Eden' into a 'Lost Land'? Is it the people who drove the Trident warship to invade Liana's hometown? Is it the people who killed the statue guards outside?

The appearance of a strange race filled his originally suspicious mind with question marks of all sizes, as if there was a thick fog in front of him, and he couldn't see clearly what was in front of him.

At the same moment, the chaotic thoughts were interrupted, the consciousness was forced into the system space, and a mechanical female voice that was so cold and emotionless, but which made him very excited sounded.

"Psionic energy fluctuations detected, diagnostic program started..."

"The diagnosis is complete, confirm the suitability of the protoss."

"Activate the protoss base."

"Frequency Analysis..."

"The wave level is a-, the jump tree is unlocked, the technology level is 2, and the building 'Dark Temple' is unlocked. ( )"

It's Miss Logic's voice,

He also clearly told him the content of this unlock.

This is not the key, the key is that the Dark Temple has been unlocked... It was unlocked here. It took less than an hour to unlock the fusion core of the key building of the human race. For him, another key building, the Protoss's The Dark Temple is also unlocked.

He knows exactly what unlocking the Dark Temple means... Soul Hunters, Dark Templars, Pirate Ships, Prophets, and even Void Glory Ships will all be open to him because of the unlocking of the Dark Temple.

This is not the end, Zeratul, the great stick, will also be activated by unlocking the Dark Temple. Once Zeratul is summoned, the Void Seeker at the fourth base will also be liberated. In addition, there is the obelisk of the hybrid body-the front unit of the hybrid body test tube. Without it providing population, the Void Seeker and the hybrid body cannot be produced.

Howson has been chewing his tongue behind his back, saying that he cares about Elena's mess to make himself uncomfortable. The United Kingdom of Turanx is not a place for him to gain a foothold, and it is not his hometown. The people here live Whether you have dignity, whether you are doing well or not, you might as well spend your energy on recruiting troops for the "Morning Star Foundry".

Sometimes when he sees posts on Turankes United Kingdom’s private network that call him an invader and an external force intent on splitting the country, he is more or less unhappy. Since some people are willing to kneel, let They just kneel down, why bother to meddle in other people's lives, that is their choice and idea, it is easier to adapt than to change.

Whether it is due to slavishness or the long-term brainwashing propaganda of the government, they are willing to live this way. In short, he did not give up, persisted, and pushed the political situation of the United Kingdom of Turanx to where it is today. Facts have proved that his efforts were not in vain, not to mention whether people in the United Kingdom of Turanx are mostly grateful or abused, at least God is on his side, giving the two key fusion cores and the dark temple. architecture.

In the next breath, he put his chaotic thoughts behind him, his consciousness sank into the Protoss Base, selected a probe, placed the Dark Temple in the psionic radiation range of the crystal tower, and then switched the focus to the portal.

The Dark Templar and Soul Hunter, which were previously locked in gray, have been unlocked.

The ancestors of the dark templar were expelled from the homeland of Aiur because they refused to join the dominant consciousness system of the protoss society-Kara, and hid on the planet Sacoolas. They abandoned Kara's light powers and instead studied how to harness the dark energy bestowed on them by the Void, thus gaining the ability to freely enter and exit the invisible state. The dark templar wielding warblades of warp light are ruthless and deadly opponents to regular troops. Now, Aiur has fallen, and the surviving Aiur protoss fled to Sacoolas, and the dark templar returned to the protoss army as a powerful force.

The Dark Templar has three major components.

One, the energy of the void: Nerazim hid for hundreds of years in order not to be discovered by the Kalai compatriots. Without Kara's psionic energies, the exiles were forced into a mystical void where they began to learn to increase their power through rigorous training, discipline, and will. They are diligent and prepared to fight, because they know that danger lurks in the shadows of the void.

Two, Stealth: Before being expelled from Ayr, Executor Arden taught the Dark Templar how to bend light and use darkness to cover his figure. The Nerazim used their ability to bond with darkness to thrive on Sacoolas, the Star of the Eternal Dawn. As their civilization matured, the Nerazim further developed the ability to remain invisible through the power of the void.

3. Curved Light Warblade: The Dark Templar used the knowledge on the ancient Xel'Naga ship that he rode in exile to forge tools using the Psionic Blade technology of the Templar class as a sample, and used this tool to shape Rapidly develop psionic skills and infuse void energy. The Spatial Blade responds to the wielder's willpower, turning centuries of discipline and training into a very powerful weapon. Its next-generation design gave rise to the scythe-shaped blade, giving the Dark Templar a variety of fighting styles.

The cost of the dark templar is 125 crystals, 125 gas, and the population occupies 2.

In terms of skills, in addition to the weapon level of the Protoss ground unit, the armor level of the Protoss ground unit, and the shield level of the Protoss, there are also passive skills for permanent invisibility and active skills to synthesize Dark Archons.

There is no need to repeat the three conventional passive researches. "Permanent Invisibility" is just as the name suggests, and the invisibility effect of the Dark Templar has no time limit. "Synthetic Dark Consul" uses two dark templars to burn void psionic energy, and at the cost of their lives, turn it into a time-limited energy body similar to a consul.

Press the hotkey casually to produce two dark templars, select them, and check various data. Sure enough, as he expected, Sister Logic did not completely follow the settings in the battle mode of the StarCraft 2 era, allowing the Dark Templar to merge into the Archon just like the High Templar, but followed the rules of the StarCraft 1 era, 2 A Dark Templar fusion will become a Dark Archon.

Of course, just like the high-ranking Templar's "Fusion Consul" skill was locked after unlocking the archives and needs a special opportunity to activate, the Dark Templar's "Fusion Dark Consul" is also locked.

This reminded him of something that made him blush and heartbroken. The Consul who was unlocked only after taking Freya back then, what opportunity does the Dark Consul need to unlock now, could it be that Miss Logic asked him to push another one? If this is the case, then wouldn't Sister Logic become the old bustard of Lapitiao?

The inability to produce a dark consul with mind control skills really made him a little unhappy, but it is undeniable that the dark templar itself is already powerful enough to be frightening. After the human ghosts and ghosts, another invisible ground unit is on the stage. You must know that the dark templar is different from the previous two human units. Their invisibility effect has no time limit, and it is even more difficult to see through.

The Ypsilon machine and mechanical intelligent brain that I encountered in the Gypsy Research Base before can see through the ghost's movements. What if it is replaced by a dark templar?

Moreover, the attack power of these assassins is very strong. The essence of the attack of the curved light war blade is to cut the space structure with void energy, which is better than the destructive effect of the psionic blade. It is not comparable to the psionic blade equipped by ghosts.

Their only weakness is that their skin is very fragile and their defense is limited, but no matter how limited it is, it is higher than the defense of the human race Ma Runjia. Whether it is used for self-defense, assassination, spying, tactical breakthrough... Dark Templar is a very valuable unit.

Next is the soul hunter: the soul hunter is a long-range infantry in the dark templar group. It was removed before the StarCraft 2 beta version. Its attack method is similar to that of the void glow ship. The combat effectiveness can be increased with the number of killed targets. .

The sample analysis report of Soul Hunter lists 3 major components.

1. Phantom thruster: Soul Hunter is equipped with an individual propulsion system that can be driven by phantom energy. By manipulating synthetic crystals to control the forward direction and speed of the propeller, this makes Soul Hunter have more power than ordinary protoss ground units. Swift mobility and all-terrain suitability.

2. Soul Tinder: Dark Templars live in the harsh environment of Sacoolas all the year round, because they are different from the way of life and cultivation of the El Protoss, they are more focused on the use of void psionic energy. Some dark templars with outstanding talents have comprehended the mysteries of time and space through unremitting training, and thus become candidates who can control the prophet ship. There are also some dark templars who perceive their own soul power through intensive training in will and discipline, and closely connect the spirit with the void. This chaotic energy is called the soul fire.

When the soul hunter kills more targets, he will gain more soul power, and his combat power will also increase accordingly. However, some Prophet pilots pointed out that Soul Spark is an extremely unstable dark energy. While they fuse the souls of enemies, they will also have a negative impact on the Soul Hunter itself.

3. Pulse light cannon: The soul hunter is equipped with a powerful pulse light cannon. Its core is a psionic crystal, which is connected to the soul fire of the soul hunter through an induction optical fiber. By responding to the pulse of the soul fire, a beam of destructive energy is generated. jumping rays.

The soul hunter costs 150 crystals, 75 gas, and takes 2 people. Resource cost is slightly higher than Stalker.

As for skills, in addition to the three regular upgrade items, there is also a passive skill——soul absorption, which can absorb the souls of killed units and improve one's attack power, especially when dealing with biological units.

Soul Hunter was deleted before the beta version because the battlefield positioning of Soul Hunter overlapped with that of Stalker, and its strong lethality against Zerg destroyed the balance of the game. Tang Fang's cognition of this unit is only in the literal content, but whether it is from the profile or appearance, the soul hunter is more ol' than the stalker. If they were described in human language, they might be a group of paranoid and lunatics obsessed with dark power.

After browsing the introductions of the Dark Templar and the Soul Hunter, he switched the focus to the Stargate again. As expected, the types of combat flight units became more abundant. The monotonous situation where only Phoenix fighters and scout fighters could be produced suddenly expanded to There are as many as 5 types, and the three unique flying combat units of the dark templar, the prophet, the pirate ship, and the void glow ship, are officially listed.

First up is the Prophet: The Prophet is a swift support vessel loaded with the most advanced protoss technology in existence. Judging when to use these combat systems is the Seer pilot's specialty. These young protoss from the Dark Templar are dedicated to understanding and mastering the nature of time. Their unique knowledge helps them calculate how to efficiently maneuver their ships to turn the tide of battle. Though they are few in number, Seer-Pilots believe they can change the outcome of any dispute, and thus the fate of the entire Protoss.

The system notes show that the Prophet has 4 major components.

1. Hyperspace Vision: Prophet pilots can control the time, allowing them to briefly gain the enemy's vision. This extraordinary technology can even reveal burrowing creatures, cloaked troops, and mechanical units surrounded by fields of cloaking force, without the need for additional special detection systems.

2. Space torrent: The core of the prophet will produce a super-energy space force field, which contains a lot of chaotic energy. This energy is channeled into a complex network of tiny crystals and single strands of psionic fibers. This raw energy will gradually disperse and stabilize as it flows in the network, and then it can be used as a source of prophetic energy.

Three, pulse beam: When using the Prophet's weapon system, it will create an opening in the space force field created by the core. After the original energy passes through a series of simple focusing lenses, it will form a powerful coherent chaotic energy bomb, which is fired through the pulse cannon. This weapon specializes in targeting ground targets and can deal a lot of damage.

4. Prediction: The Prophet does not use a central computer to handle trivial matters such as navigation and aiming, but directly connects the driver and the ship through a multi-node central system. Since the pilots of the Prophet ship are masters at manipulating time and space, they can use future information to gain an advantage on the battlefield. Pilots even use this ability to fire the ship's deadly pulsing beams.

The cost of the Prophet is 450 crystals and 450 gas, and the population occupies 4. This means that its body length exceeds 30 meters, which can be compared with the Phoenix fighter. The population also seems to have increased a bit, from 3 in the battle mode to 4.

In terms of skills, the Prophet only has 3 active skills, Apocalypse, Preview, and Activate Pulse Light. Apocalypse can gain vision on enemies, sort of like a Zerg Queen's parasite, but it has a wider range of effects. "Preview" is generally used to detect invisible, burrowed, or phantom units. As for "activating the pulse light", it is to charge the pulse cannon by sacrificing its own chaotic energy to attack the enemy's reads;. (To be continued...) For mobile phone users, please visit m.
