A Will Eternal Chapter 366

Kane's team drove directly to the backwater mining area without a major rest.

In his words: "The maintenance personnel go to bed first, it's a long night, and some of them are busy."

But in fact, the situation in the backwater mining area is not as good as Kane expected.

From a human point of view, although the zerg seem a little funny in many cases, at least they are not stupid. The battle situation at the backwater base has fully demonstrated that there is no targeted fire prevention plan, so don't mess with the humans decorated by animals.

Oh, by the way, the chainsaw sword also impresses the brain worms of this Zerg clan. It allows humans to obtain tearing and cutting abilities that are not much inferior to ordinary Zergs.

Kane also proudly boasted a few words about this: "The advantage of human beings lies in the use of various tools. If you lack power, you can use mechanical power, electricity, lack fangs and claws, have laminar arc plasma beams, and chainsaw swords. !"

The plasma beam naturally looks more dazzling, but it is a big energy consumer. Considering the overall cost and other reasons, Kane will not install high-energy compression batteries on the power armor.

In fact, the current silicon graphene high-energy battery has aroused heated discussions among many people.

As the saying goes, there are many people who are popular, and Gray Beard turned from a mercenary to an arms manufacturer and seller overnight. This is a tricky turning point in the eyes of many people. If there is no "angel who broke the news" as a target to attract attention , Those figures at the top of the pyramid of power, at this time, I am afraid that they have already launched various attacks.

Fortunately, Greybeard still has some time now, and Kane also knows that Greybeard is doing this against the munitions manufacturer and even the federal government, so he seized the time to make a few more waves of presence on the public side.

As a group of people, Kane himself naturally does not need much. With his puppet civilization system, he can completely become his own pole without pleasing anyone.

But Greybeard needs it. As for the reason for the need, at the root, it is actually that Kane does not want to sit back and watch the wealth created by humans in the Koprulu sector, or life and property. During the intersection of the three races, just three are worthless. Two waves are lost.

Hundreds of years of savings were destroyed by greedy and ruthless leaders, incompetent and stupid officials, self-righteous profiteers, and stupid people themselves.

As early as in the HP world, Kane had already put forward the theory that 'since manpower is a resource, human life can also be converted into wealth'.

It is precisely because of this theory that dead people are actually losing money. Kane feels sorry for the money for the humans in the Koprulu sector. It is not easy to make money, but it is too fast to burn it. He feels that he is far better than those human leaders who steal high positions.

At least if he burns the money, he will definitely be able to hear the noise and see the scene, not just 5 cents special effects and garbage narration.

Like this time, Greybeard can stage an exciting show in the backwater base, the fire is so cool and exciting, why can it be done?

One of the fundamental reasons is that a part of the wealth flowed into the hands of Graybeard, and then Graybeard transformed it into combat power and performed this live drama for people.

Kane did not forget to ask Liberty to advertise: "Greybeard products, a conscientious choice, the more you buy, the more effectively Graybeard can protect everyone's life and property."

Kane thinks this approach is very necessary. Unlike the Renault Rangers in the original historical line, it has been reported in the news that people are more counting on the Rangers to save them than the army of Emperor Mengsk, but the Rangers are still Being poor there, the narrow-minded people only know to make money by contacting task lists, and the other is to accept donations if they want to refuse.

People in the original world in the 21st century would curl their lips at this kind of thinking, let alone this era. It’s really too low. You must know that popularity is money. The early anchors of Station A\\B\\Youku relied on making free videos to promote the products of their own online stores. Is this bad?

On the contrary, a penny is not a hero, Renault was not only ridiculed by his own chief technical engineer Swan, but also had to accept some business against his will. This is obviously used as a gun for people.

In Kane's words: "It's the protagonist of fate, who can hit the right side, otherwise he would have been turned into a chamber pot or a villain. The kind of business that can never turn around."

This is really not nonsense. Renault was beaten by his boss when he was in the 321st Federation of the Federation (Heavenly Devil), and his life path was reversed. Pit, the root cause is money trouble.

Naturally, Kane doesn't want to be pinched wantonly like Renault, relying on his life to bear it. He wanted to take the initiative as much as possible, so he used Graybeard's wealth to play tricks.

However, there are no tricks in the backwater mining area, only the mess where the zerg go to the empty nest. The zerg can even pack organic matter, and the creep tumor can spread the creep, which in turn can collect nutrients and become an easy-to-carry aggregate.

The rest of the mess, whether it's the creep or the nest, all have a tomb-like dryness, no luster, no vitality, just a pile of cuticles (calluses). This stuff is even flame retardant, like sand.

The zerg also basically drained the famous stagnant pool, leaving behind a big black mud pit, and it is estimated that it may not be able to recover in half a year.

In the backwater mines, time is mostly spent searching for refugees.

The mines of this era are very different from the mines known to people in the original world. An important reason is that the production capacity is strong, so that the way of digging along the veins and making the mine underground into a maze over time has long been outdated.

The entire ore lode has been ascertained first, and then it is planned. After the rough plans of each stage are planned, excavation and construction will start according to the entire plan.

It can be said that when all the mines have been dug, an underground city will be built.

Therefore, the interior of the mining area can be said to have distinct areas and numerous facilities, and it is not difficult or complicated.

But the Xel'Naga Temple is a different story.

I don't know which wicked race built it. The ruins buried in the ground are not only a labyrinth, but also full of organs.

The cerebrates of the Zerg clan probably deliberately left a troop to fight with the entrants in this area in order to be able to walk calmly.

Kane didn't want to fight such a battle, he sent his subordinates to fight wits and bravery with those bugs and play micromanagement. The so-called long night coincided with the failure of the plan for a big rest. The battle in the ruins came to an end when the sky was bright the next day, and it was basically cleared up.

Custer and the others were not as lucky as Old William and the others. Most of these people who were 'retained' by the Federation and still insisted on mining had turned into rations for the Zerg.

The periosteum, bone marrow, and ligaments, these Zergs did not let go, so the corpses they saw were all incomplete, piled up there, stained with some bloodshot mucus, looking amazing, and terrified when thinking about it.

Liberty said in a low voice: "My compatriots, let us remember this scene, it will make it easier for everyone to make the right choice."

About 20 people, relying on their own cleverness, escaped unharmed. Of course, this is also because the Zerg didn't specifically target it. Kane estimated that the Cerebral Worm just gave an order to 'clean it up', and then ignored it.

Among the more than 20 people, 4 could not bear the darkness, loneliness, and waiting, and committed suicide in despair.

There were six more who were half-crazed at the sight of the cruelty. There is no total madness, the reason is very simple, if it is true that the total madness is completely out of control, either it is discovered and killed by the Zerg, or it is abandoned by the survivors, these people can survive, to a certain extent, they are really abandoned too much Many, why would you care about adding a lunatic? Probably not on the guilty list.

"Okay, the team in the backwater area has successfully concluded their work. First, go back to Fort Sanctuary, take a full rest and supplement, and continue to patrol the area tomorrow." Kane issued an order.

Liberty asked, "Isn't it going to blow up here?"

"Blow up at every turn, are you so cruel?" Kane said half-jokingly.

"..." Liberty retorted, "How dare I call it cruel in front of you?"

Kane laughed, with an expression that counts as you know, but it is obviously too exaggerated, and it is clear at a glance that it is not serious. After laughing, Kane said deeply: "Welcome the federal army, bring your family and call the beast to come Archeology, carbon identification, it has existed for at least 12 million years, which is of great archaeological value!"

Liberty rolled his eyes and said boldly, "Are you trying to cheat people outright!?"

"I'm also attracting investment. With Marsala's current army, it's obviously not enough for fun."

Liberty sighed, acquiescing to Kane's fallacy.

After the report was broadcast, there was also a wave of cries of 'the federal army is incompetent, we need more beasts'. For a while, the entire mercenary world benefited from Greybeard, and Mira Han was in the trading newsletter. Half jokingly said: "The gray beard can be regarded as a well-known sign now. It's not a bad job, trying to make Hong Kong of the Dead also have more seats in the House of Representatives."

Kane retorted: "Do you really dare to think, if that's the case, those gangsters will not be jealous to the point of madness?"

We must know whether it is Graybeard or Mira? Han, to really define their identity, space pirates are more accurate, not mercenaries.

Generally speaking, the faces of bandits are uglier than those of gangsters.

Then Mira became a coquettish and disgusting person.

Although this pirate queen is not as male-heavy as Ruhua, she is definitely an ugly girl. She has a sexy voice and pretends to be coquettish. Combined, her style of painting is simply invincible.

Kane stayed in Fort Sanctuary for another day, that is, on the 21st, before going on tour again.

In his conversation with Liberty: "I wish some northerners of Marsala would pay attention to your reports, so that they would realize how large the zerg population is, and how smart and brave they are at the same time, no matter what Should I come to Fort Sanctuary or go to other places of refuge, be soft and be controlled, it should be easier to accept than death? I think this is a question of IQ."

And the facts tell Kane what it means to live for a long time, that is, some people still go their own way under this background, such as the idiots in Anselm, who were the first stop of the last cruise, and there were green crosses supporting them.

Liberty can't stand this kind of style: "These people probably really treat the Green Cross as an angel, and the volunteers of the Green Cross are quite profane."

Liberty also grew up by Kane's side, and successfully learned the usage of the word 'wave'.

"It's all about three things. I didn't even ask again, so I just warned you once. If you want to listen or not, God annoys those who don't know how much they weigh. They are really surrounded by bugs. I won't send soldiers to rescue them. .Their lives are their lives, and so are the lives of my men."

Liberty said in his heart: "Oh, this is so rare. I actually know that life is precious. I thought Graybeard's life was for playing!"

He complained so secretly, he naturally wanted to say that Kane's excuse was not at all pretty. Obviously, the people in Anselm are ignorant of flattery and current affairs, which made Uncle Kane unhappy, so let you die.

Kane continued to lead the tour of the Northern Territory in a dead porcupine. After all, this place is not comparable to those colonial planets with a large population. There are less than 40 settlements in the entire north. Like Tarsonis, any county, natural villages and towns are definitely over a hundred.

Of the 37 residences, 26 have been vacated, either in Fort New Shelter, or they have already obtained an asylum ticket to Star Manhof and fled.

There are 11 left, 2 came to defect yesterday, and 2 more plan to defect, and the large ships that have passed the space orbit went down to pick them up, leaving Anselm and Backwater Base aside, there are 5 more.

Judging from the map, these five places just went around in a circle, and all of them were patrolled.

The first stop, Catherine City, is said to be a city, but in fact there are only a thousand residents. It may be that the city is built dangerously enough, like a half-cliff castle, so under the instigation of its charismatic leader, the people of Catherine City chose to play by themselves. .

Kane and his party were obviously late. The humans here suffered the same treatment as a backwater mining area. The zerg first interfered with communication, and then attacked with all their strength. None of the fish slipped through the net. Kane and the others found it in the square in the center of the city. An alternative view of Beijing, or a pile of bones.

Kane glanced at it and was basically sure that everyone was here, and the price paid by the zerg to capture here was not high. According to various details and signs, it was inferred that the tragedy happened 5 days ago, before the patrol of Fort Sanctuary started.

The second stop, Tennant Creek, was the same, dead, and the estimated time was also 5 days ago.

At this time, it is basically certain that the Zerg launched a large-scale clean-up campaign on the entire Northland five days ago, and the backwater mining area and base were also hit that day. Under the nose of the zerg, the Zerg didn't make a move.

In the third stop, Arnhem, Kane and his party unexpectedly met Jim Raynor and Sarah Kerrigan here.

Kane pouted: "What is this? The power of fate?"
