Chapter 1522: Infinite War (1)

TR.84.9.21
Cthulhu area, Char.
Renault looked melancholy at the sight outside Busefalos.
Char is a lava planet located on the edge of the star area, with an environment of only T0, full of magma and volcanoes, extremely high temperature and drought, and no development value. No one is interested in it except some environmental researchers.
But there are bugs.
The remaining Zergs in the entire star area, not counted as those controlled by Kerrigan, are all gathered on this extremely harsh planet.
No one knows how those monsters evolved to adapt to this environment, but relying on the power of the environment, the coalition of humans and the Protoss really had no choice but to do nothing about them. In desperation, they could only leave them alone for the time being. First go to clear the Zerg from other star regions.
However, when all the fish that slipped through the net were eliminated, the general offensive against Char had to be scheduled again, just after the first anniversary of the establishment of the Republic of Tyron.
Of course, the Republic of Tyron is a human country reborn from the ashes after the collapse of the Tyronnian Federation, led by the former Governor of Keha, Angus Mengsk.
Logically speaking, the Hundred-legged Worm is dead but not stiff. Even if the Tyronn Federation suffers from the independence of its members, the rebellious forces are swarming, and the vicious behaviors have been exposed in a large number of very unfavorable external environments. It can be supported for a long time.
As a result, the extremely gorgeous golden fleet summoned by Tassadar from Kara has become the last straw to crush the camel.
These Protoss themselves do not intend to intervene in civil wars between humans. They only focus on eliminating the Zerg reactions they have detected. They even issued a declaration saying that they hope that mankind will restore peace as soon as possible and jointly fight the threat of Zerg.
However, when the Golden Fleet, which declared to remain neutral, dug out and wiped out the Zerg Swarm from one after another controlled by the Tyranian Federation and possessing laboratories, the Tyrannian Federation eventually collapsed.
One of the earliest immigrant families, the patriarch of the Tyron family and Nova’s grandfather, the Tyronn Senator first announced that he would give up his status as a member of the Federal Parliament.
Then, planetary governors with federal laboratories on planet after planet declared their independence, and invited the Protoss fleet to check the conditions of their laboratories-at least half of them detected signs of Zerg activity.
Then, the frontier fortress defense chief headed by General Horfield stepped forward to expose the Federation deliberately using nuclear bombs to bomb its own people, just to intercept the rebels... No, the despicable actions of the insurgents.
Under multiple attacks, the forces controlled by the Federal Assembly fell apart, and the armies everywhere ceased fire on their own, and refused to accept any orders. In the end, under the mediation of Angus Mengsk, the first heroic governor who rebelled against the Confederation, the new "Thailand" The "London Republic" came into being.
By the way, Nova Terra replaced her grandfather's position and joined the Republican Senate as a female member of Parliament.
So, a force can be evil and cruel, but it must be external. If even its own people are pitted to death, it is not far from destruction.
However, due to the perversion of the Federation, in addition to the Emma Empire, the Gallente Federation, the Minmatar Republic, the United States of Caldari, the Jupiter Empire, and other corner powers are against the President of the Republic, Aktu. Mengsk's attitude is basically in a state of heeding and not listening, and it depends on his ability to exert a greater influence on the Protoss fleet.
Generally speaking, the Republic of Tyron is still a long way from becoming a united country.
When it comes to the Golden Fleet, they are powerful and powerful, but they are rootless trees and sourceless waters. The joy of Tassadar's success in summoning the fleet was overwhelmed by the bad news on the face within an hour. Without a trace.
Kara has been destroyed.
It was not the zerg or other enemies, but the Protoss himself.
According to Zeratul, a leader of the Golden Fleet, the existence of the "Kara Crystal" was created a long time ago, and an upper existence named "Amon" descended.
He can easily use "Kara" to connect the consciousness of each protagonist. There is no more reliable evidence than this. Although his size is like a super battleship, its shape is quite strange and unreliable even with the eyes of the protagonist. Can be named.
According to him, his race is called Xel'Naga, a race dedicated to maintaining the peace of the universe. They created the Protoss to fight against the disasters of the universe: Zergs, see the Protoss walking On the path that he designed, they are deeply gratified and do not intend to continue to interfere in their development.
And the reason why He came to Kara is because there was a "cosmic disaster" other than Zergs, named "Reaper".
According to Eamon, Zerg and Protoss are all creations of Sarnagar in order to maintain the peace of the universe, but the former is affected by the evil existence of the subspace, the pseudonymous "Insect Sage" [Terrorism], completely out of control , So they will create Protoss to fight against.
The "Reaper" is a new round of attempts by the Sarnagars outside of Zergs and Protoss.
The cause of the matter is that they have discovered a wonderful law through observing the civilization of the universe for countless years: As long as the civilization is not destroyed by zerg or natural disasters, it will eventually be destroyed by their own mechanical creations.
That is: organic life will always be born in the universe, organic life will always create mechanical life, and mechanical life will inevitably destroy their creator.
Therefore, these Sarnagars decided to create another kind of creation, before those civilizations are destroyed by their own creations, and destroy the mechanical life that will inevitably destroy them, in order to achieve the result of protecting these civilizations.
In view of the two outstanding achievements of Zerg’s "biology" and the Protoss’ "ability", the Sarnagars, who seem to have a bit of obsessive-compulsive disorder, decided that the new creation is a "steel guard" with a "mechanical" attribute, that is The predecessor of "Reaper".
These "steel guards" can be said to have accomplished their missions brilliantly in the early days of being created. Before each civilization was about to be destroyed in the hands of their own creations, they wiped out those mechanical lives that wanted to eat their masters.
But the good times did not last long. The Sarnagars quickly discovered that after losing their mechanical life, the civilizations that were about to be destroyed either fell into decline quickly, or they recreated new mechanical life that they thought would not betray, and once again Betrayed, had to trouble the Iron Guard to save him a second time.
The reason is also obvious. Civilizations that will be destroyed by their own creations are naturally entrusted to the mechanical slackers of all the large and small matters of the entire civilization. When things develop to the point where they are about to perish due to mechanical backlash, they have been completely destroyed. I don't have the ability to rely on myself to prop up the operation of the entire civilization.
To save such civilizations, only after eliminating the rebellious machinery, strengthening their bodies, restoring their knowledge, increasing their population, and a series of other troubles, so that they can survive on their own strength. .
It is conceivable how much extra energy and time this behavior will take. If there are only one or two civilizations that need this kind of care, the Sarnagars can't reluctantly add this kind of almost nanny function to the "Steel Guard".
But the problem is that similar civilizations can be said to be as numerous as the stars in the entire universe. If you do this, it is equivalent to Sarnagar being responsible for tailoring a batch of mechanical nanny who will never betray each civilization that is about to die... …
Why!
However, since Sarnagar has made the decision to save other civilizations, it is not good to give up halfway, so he tries to add intelligence to those "steel guards" so that they can deal with similar problems flexibly, such as killing only those The military machinery life threatening civilization, and the people's livelihood aspect will be let go for the time being.
But it still doesn't work. There are many specific reasons, such as civilization hiding a batch of weapons and fighting, or the steel guards are not sure what is the livelihood of the people. In short, the whole plan is completely messed up.
In the end, the "Steel Guard" who was so annoyed that he could not do it awoke.
They directly cleaned up the civilization that was about to be destroyed together with their mechanical creations, and then collected all the historical, cultural, scientific and technological heritage of the civilization, and returned to Sarnagar.
The Sarnagars were shocked, ready to re-adjust the behavior of the Iron Guard, and then they were beaten by the Iron Guard.
However, no matter what, Sarnagar is not the kind of weak race that relies on creation in everything. They have powerful psychic powers enough to ensure that their creation can't hurt themselves.
Although they couldn't hurt them, they couldn't beat them. The Sarnagars finally chose to abandon themselves and another failed creation and left the planet.
And Emmon came to the protoss because those "steel guards" have become the climate. They have collected knowledge of one civilization after another in countless years, and because these civilizations are about to be destroyed by their own mechanical creations. , So all the knowledge acquired tends to the fields related to machinery and artificial intelligence. This has led to the "Steel Guardian" evolving at an exaggerated speed. Later, it is not only collecting knowledge and history, but even starting Using some strange means to preserve the individuals of the destroyed civilization, they are no longer "steel guards" at this time, but the "reapers" of civilization.
It’s also a coincidence that Zergs have always been keen to attack planets with sufficient "biomass", and it is impossible for this kind of planets to have a large number of machinery. On the other hand, Protoss has been chasing Zergs and will not look for those. A civilization with advanced machinery and serious pollution. As for the "Steel Guard" or "Reaper", according to their harvesting logic, the zergs that strengthen the body and the psychic-developing protoss will never "reap", here By a coincidence, the creations of Sarnagar did not even meet once before Emmon came.
According to Eamon, the "Reapers" have newly mastered the ability called "Education", which can silently control the objects they harvest. It is easy to connect the Protoss with the "Kara". It will be overwhelmed by them, so before seeking the help of the Protoss, he will teach the Protoss another kind of "dark attribute" ability besides the "light attribute" ability they own.
However, according to the power quality of each protoss, not everyone can master the dark attribute abilities, perhaps it is a coincidence, or it may be inevitable, only half of the protoss can master this power.
Protoss who have acquired dark attribute abilities are called "dark templar", "dark archon" and other corresponding titles.
The so-called "to match, to win by surprise", sneak attacks and insidious moves are always easier to obtain results than dignified battles, and the dark attribute abilities are naturally the same.
The light attribute abilities mainly include the "light blade" that focuses on lethality, the "psychic assault" that increases the speed of the charge, the "psychic storm" that causes group damage, etc., while the dark attribute abilities are biased to penetrate shields and The "dark blade" of armor, the "stealth" that allows the user to sneak attacks, and the silent "mind control".
As a result, the Protoss who had obtained the two abilities split into two parts before they actually set out to fight the Reaper.
I don’t know who provoked it first. The "light forces" fought against the "dark forces". This internal struggle called the "War of Aeons" lasted for a long time, and the battle was fierce, even though it has been a long time, Zela When the picture was lifted, the voice still couldn't stop shaking.
And Eamon, the initiator of all this, disappeared after the battle began.
Although it is not that no one suspects that this war was initiated by Eamon, there is no evidence, and after being blinded by hatred and blood, the war will not stop because of such trivial matters.
The end result is the golden fleet brought back by Tassadar, as well as five fleet commanders and leaders, Zeratul, Urun, Mohandar, and Selendis. And Artanis, the only remaining tribe of the Protoss.
The duty is to protect other civilizations from being destroyed, but he is already on the verge of destruction, and it sounds like some kind of black humor.
However, even so, the Protoss did not have the idea of ​​giving up their duties. After completely eliminating Char’s Zerg, they were prepared to pick up the "Hunter Sentinel" one by one according to the information obtained from Al, while continuing to patrol the universe. , Looking for Zergs, Reapers, and even Emmons.
"Boss, the troops are ready for airborne." Jimmy ran over to report.
"[Attention to all units -]" Renault picked up the microphone.
[No, you cannot eliminate this batch of Zergs. 】
At this moment, there was a low and echoing voice, and in the next second, an endless gray fog rushed in, completely engulfing the entire Char and the coalition fleet on the satellite orbit.
"[Keep your guard, you can fire freely in danger.]" Renault said instead.
"[Emon!]" Even in this weird situation, it failed to stop Cerantis's extremely penetrating soprano from going through the entire communication channel.
