StarCraft: Tyranid Empire

Chapter 413 Memories of Nessing

"Executor, the Conclave's fleet is retreating. This is the power of the Templars!"

As soon as Artanis finished speaking, the high-ranking templar Radnarknis, who was standing in front of the star array, heard an excited heartbeat.

The holographic screen of the Spear of Adun tracked a protoss fleet entering the sub-jump field. Even though it suffered heavy damage, the protoss fighters surrounding the protoss mothership and aircraft carrier were still huge.

Gorgeous space-time vortices and blue flashes surged around the Arbiter, and the huge Protoss Empire fleet seemed to be placed on an oily film floating on the water.

"A glorious victory, Commander." Artanis' praise made Radnarknis truly radiant.

"Our victory at Koshaka spread throughout Ayr through Kara, and finally the Council's supporters gave up their resistance. The Conclave's strategic failure was obvious, and they sent too many troops into enemy-controlled areas. This leaves the rear defense empty."

"The Arbitrators never imagined that we would win by any means of warfare other than from the front, and were overconfident in the Council's guards."

"Where is the Supreme Council retreating to?" Augustus put his hand on the Starry Sky Array Platform of the Spear of Adun, and the light emitted by the golden metal and blue crystal illuminated his heroic face: "If the arbiters are in Ai Your battle is losing, so where should they flee?"

"The path to open the space-time channel is being analyzed." The phase technician on the side opened the control panel and calculated something.

"This is a route that will take a long time to reach, and its destination is not on the territory of the Protoss Empire." His words were full of surprise and became more and more urgent.

"Then where are they going?" Renault studied the Protoss equipment carefully, but he really couldn't figure out the letters and numbers of the Protoss. Otherwise, how could he operate it with his talent as a genius in starship piloting? One or two.

"Only they and Cass know whether the destination is a place of blooming flowers or the end of an abyss." The phase technician replied.

"We can't let them leave like that." Augustus said this, regretting that he really had no better way to prevent the retreat of a protoss fleet that wanted to leave the battlefield, especially since this fleet also had a large number of arbitration or battleship.

"There is no better way." The phase technician said: "The space-time technology of the Spear of Adun is enough to imprison the dimensions of time and space, but she has just been awakened, and the military-industrial matrix, destruction cluster and attack cluster have not yet resumed operation."

"I originally thought that you meant that you can't do it, rather than that you can't do it for the time being. The difference is really huge." Renault has already seen the power of the Protoss Mothership, and its terrifying The purification beam can burn the surface of a planet and even tear apart the vortex of the starry sky, but there is no reason why the Spear of Adun can't do it.

"It's irreversible." Artanis' tone sounded like he was unable to stop the departure of the Supreme Council fleet, but also like he was glad that he didn't have to fight with his own people to the end, with everything broken and blood flowing in the river.

"The Conclave's fleet is jumping their most loyal supporters through the Matrix network throughout Aiur, and then sailing away from home without looking back. I don't know why they are doing that? Even in times of danger At all times, the arbitrators also refused to abandon their homes.”

"Yeah," Augustus said after a moment of silence.

"You just mentioned that the Supreme Council is preparing to launch another Ark ship?"

"Yes." Artanis said: "I suspect that the High Council has long planned to activate all the remaining Arks, including the Spear of Adon. If we hadn't invaded the heart of the Council on Koshaka, they might have Use the Ark ships against us.”

"Maybe? Man, we don't believe that they worked so hard to send the ark to the sky just to set off fireworks." Renault shook his head.

"I can feel that my little sister's mind has awakened, and her will is being reconnected to Kara. Thunderous roars are coming from the core of the sun of the Pride of Altaris, and she has been reborn." At this time, Arden Said Rohana, the highest protector of the Spear.

"Supreme Protector Shantila?" The phase technician tried to establish a connection with another ark, the Pride of Otalis: "This ark has already taken off! Supreme Protector Shantila is a master of physics and engineering. It is no exaggeration. It can be said that the glory of the entire Protoss Empire Kalai’s engineering community is based on Shantila’s foresight.”

"Really, it was too late after all." Artanis said regretfully: "The Pride of Otalis must carry the last arbiters, and this ark is their last hope for a last-ditch battle."

"I am Executor Tassadar, and I am on the flagship of Urlan. Spear of Adun, rally to me immediately." Tassadar's avatar appeared, and he took a moment to confirm that he was standing on the Spear of Adun. On the bridge of the ship is Augustus. At the same time, the coordinates of the Tassadar fleet also appeared above the star array platform.

"Augustus, it's you," Tassadar said.

"The situation is not optimistic. Although the Conclave's fleet is retreating, they still launched another Ark ship, the Pride of Altaris. I don't know what they want to do."

"Do as the Executor says." High Templar Radnarknis was a loyal supporter of Tassadar and Artanis.

After a brief flash, the Spear of Adun appeared at the edge of Tassadar's fleet. This Ark was so huge that Tassadar's aircraft carrier flagship, the Star Shuttle, was just a tiny speck in front of it.

A few minutes later, Tassadar teleported via the warp matrix to the bridge of the Spear of Adun, followed by the leader of his fleet, Admiral Jurran. Compared to Tassadar and Artanis, after the fall of his homeland, Yurlan, who was full of anger, became even more violent. He is the main war protoss and advocates using absolute force and fire to end everything and end his rule.

"After seeing that it was you who commanded the Spear of Adon, I immediately felt at ease." Tassadar said as soon as he saw Augustus.

"It's just a matter of chasing ducks." Augustus shrugged: "I am not the commander here."

"Supreme Protector Rohana, High Executor Tassadar salutes you. I have read many stories about the Ark in the Templar Archives. It was you who predicted the doomsday and led the construction of the Ark." Tassadar Dar then looked at Rohana suspended in the air and said.

"It seems that the current Templars have not forgotten the past." Rohana replied nonchalantly: "Are you the current leader of the Templars? With all due respect, I am not familiar with what happened in El. The war is still half understood.”

"Perhaps you agree with me on this matter, which is both a catastrophe and a farce."

"Supreme Protector, since you know nothing about all this, please don't make any comments." After experiencing many things, Tassadar would not give too much face when facing the old-school ruling class.

"The Pride of Otalis has taken off, phase technicians, immediately try to establish communication with this ark." Tassadar turned to the star array platform.

"...I'm trying." The phase technician suddenly said: "The detection system captured the figure of the Pride of Altaris, which is orbiting Aiur's synchronous orbit."

"I am Arbitrator Cotanur, the current leader of the Supreme Council." An extremely old Arbitrator, whose face has even collapsed, is being restrained in the stasis field. He was a true octogenarian, much older than the Dark Templar matriarch Rashagal.

"I have experienced a long time and space. I have witnessed the fall of the Dark Templar and the fall of Adun's Twilight. I was once a staunch defender of Kara's teachings, but now I only care about the survival of the Protoss Empire."

"Kotanur?" Rohana repeated the name: "In the era before I fell asleep, he was one of the elders of the Supreme Council."

"In the name of Kass, I am alive. Salute you, Protector Rohana. The Conclave has failed to fulfill the duties Kass asked us to perform. It is a great shame that our homeland has been lost and our glory has been lost.

"Remember the mistakes we made due to arrogance and ignorance, and alert future generations." The arbiter nodded to Rohana, but quickly turned to Tassadar:

"Our Executor, Tassadar. The Council has failed, and those elders have fallen into the hands of the Templars. Are you determined to execute them? Or are you determined to completely destroy the Arbitration Class?"

"I" Tassadar was about to say something, but was interrupted by the other party.

"I'm not blaming you for being ruthless to your own kind, Tassadar, I just want to tell you. The Supreme Council admitted failure. As the price of defeat, and to make up for the mistakes we have made, we decided to follow our ancestors again to find Following the footsteps of Xel'Naga, leave Ayr and embark on a new pilgrimage."

"——That is the path that the ancestors of the Protoss Empire explored the universe in pursuit of the Xel'Naga. This will be an expedition. In order to avoid the recurrence of war and fratricide, we will leave."

"Until the day comes when Aiur is retaken, Tassadar, by which time, if you summon us, the fleet will return."

"Elder, as long as you swear not to wage war anymore and accept the leadership of the Protoss Empire's new council, there is no need to leave Aiur." Tassadar said.

"If that means changing the system set by Kass and coexisting with the Dark Templar, then I will not agree." Arbitrator Cortanur said.

"No more words need be said."

"Release the Arbitrators imprisoned by you, and we will leave after that."

As soon as Ketannur finished speaking, the atmosphere immediately became more tense.

"I don't know if this is a lie." Tassadar's eyes turned cold. The Supreme Council, which owns an ark and fleet, still has the strength to fight them, even if both sides are different and start a civil war.

"How dare you question the Supreme Council, we are already groveling!" Cotanur felt great shame.

"Oh, you're pulling us like we're begging you, old guy." Renault, who was watching coldly, complained.

"Swear in the name of Kass, we will leave to avoid the swordsmanship of our kindred. If we violate our oath, let Kara abandon us and let our homeless souls scatter in the wind of the wilderness." In After a while of silence, Ketannur spoke.

"Then the oathbreakers will meet again in front of Adun and pray for his mercy and forgiveness." Tassadar added.

"Executor Moyo, release all arbitrators."

"What? Just forget it?" Renault couldn't believe it: "How do you know they won't betray their trust?"

"This is the most vicious oath for the Star Spirits." Augustus said: "After all, they really believe in gods and souls. There is always something more important than life."

"Oaths are meant to be broken, that's the meaning of their existence." Kerrigan didn't think so.

"Tassadar, there is no blood feud between us." Cotanur said after a few seconds of silence: "If you hadn't sent the Dark Templar to attack the Heart of the Council when the Peace Council was convening, then we wouldn't have launched it at all. Fight back.”

"And in war, after all, we are no match for soldiers."

"I did not send the Dark Templar to attack the Council." Tassadar couldn't help being surprised.

"We captured the attackers and brought them to the Inquisition for interrogation, and the Dark Templar warriors all claimed without exception that they were assigned by you." Cotannur quickly reacted: "You mean, There is another Dark Templar attacking us."

Tassadar was obviously shocked. He could hardly believe that the Supreme Council would listen to the enemy, and was completely speechless.

"Is he an idiot?" Kerrigan covered her face with her hands: "Rather than saying he is an idiot, he is more likely to be easy to deceive."

"They are accustomed to using telepathy to communicate, and their ability to distinguish lies is also very low." Renault added: "In fact, the Supreme Council really has never lied. It is not easy to verify the true identity."

".We were provoked?" The irony was that Cotanur actually didn't believe Tassadar's words at all. They only want to believe what they believe compared to their fellow humans and the truth.

"How could I order the assassination of my own compatriots?" Tassadar lamented, all this has long been irreversible. To this day, those dead stars will never come back to life.

"This may be an unimaginable mistake." Cotanur sighed: "Set sail, Pride of Otalis, toward the path traveled by our ancestors."

"There's no need to worry about debts," Renault said.

"Arbitrator, I have a question that must be answered by you." Augustus said suddenly.

"Leader of mankind? You are worthy of my waiting here." Cotanur obviously knew Augustus.

"Is there an arbitrator named Duran on board your ship?" asked Augustus.

Unexpectedly, after some verification, Cotanur gave Augustus an incredible answer: ""There is absolutely no such person in the parliament. "

After a while, the Pride of Altaris disappeared in a burst of brilliant light. The space-time jumping force field it opened stretched for dozens of miles, and its traces would not fade away for many years to come.

"Wait, there is an ark?" Augustus suddenly remembered something.

"The Memory of Nessin has not been activated," said Supreme Protector Rohana.

"Supreme Protector Olanna on the Ark, my sister is alive - but she's not in good shape."

"Artanis, Executive Officer, immediately go to the area where Nessin's Memory is located." Tassadar made a prompt decision and gave the coordinates of a city.

"Something is very wrong." Augustus frowned.

"Who's closest to there?"

"It's Swann's people," Kerrigan replied. "The Eldridge and the Engineer Corps are nearby."
