Chapter 464

Fury, unparalleled fury, at this moment the Blade Empress was furious beyond measure, her mind replaying those words over and over.

I am the evil Blade Empress, you actually called me the evil Blade Empress, Jim, you actually said you would destroy me! You actually said you would destroy me?

She looked in disbelief at the man in the communication zone before her, that was her lover Jim Raynor.

But how could this be possible? Jim Raynor would absolutely never say such evil words, never utter such foolish words as wanting to destroy her.

"Blade Empress, your doom has arrived, you Zerg have threatened the Empire's safety for years.

Threatened all of humanity, now I represent justice, represent all humanity, represent the Empire in destroying you." Jim Raynor continued delivering his impassioned speech.

Completely ignoring Sarah, Kerrigan's face had already turned black, couldn't get any blacker, after a long-winded tirade, Jim Raynor drenched Sarah Kerrigan in dog's blood.

"Are you done speaking? Jim? Truly an impassioned speech, I never noticed you had this talent before?" Blade Empress Sarah Kerrigan took a deep breath and spoke.

"I remember everything between us before, I remember our first meeting, I remember how I once wanted to save you.

But all that is now past, I have now accepted the glorious reforging, I have now completed the elevation of body and soul." Jim Raynor spoke.

Although he said it like that, deep in Jim Raynor's heart a flicker of struggle flashed, a flicker of guilt, but it was quickly overwhelmed by a wave of absolute rationality.

"You're in big trouble, Jim Raynor, don't worry! I'll first bring you back, then turn you back to your original self, then I'll beat you senseless." The Blade Empress spoke.

"Are you declaring war on me? Blade Empress, I have already changed, I will never return to the past.

When we meet again, I will let you know how strong my power is." Jim Raynor spoke.

"OK! I understand, so I will set up formations on Char and wait for you to come, truly thanks to Mengsk personally sending you over, so I don't have to go to Korhal to find you." Blade Empress Sarah Kerrigan spoke.

After finishing, without waiting for Jim Raynor's reply, she then closed the communication, and letting Jim Raynor speak like this, the Blade Empress felt she would lose control of her emotions.

After defeating Jim Raynor, she couldn't help but directly ka-cha him, Jim, Jim, you idiot, it's over, you're done for.

At this moment, the Blade Empress was furious beyond measure, began deploying the Zerg army, and after a series of spatial jumps, the human battlecruisers also officially arrived above Char.

The Blade Empress dispatched a vast number of dragon units to intercept, while the human battlecruisers also dispatched various combat units such as Valkyries, Viking fighters, Goliaths, Liberators and other aerial units to contend with the dragon swarms in the sky.

If discussing single combat capability, then dragons are absolutely no match for human weapons, and even compared to the Protoss, they are far inferior.

But dragons possess vast numbers, often their numbers are hundreds, even thousands or tens of thousands of times that of their flying units.

But this time, humanity has resolved to fight a decisive battle, thus bringing almost the entire Empire's army, large numbers of aircraft began to intercept, and over a dozen human battlecruisers began landing toward the ground.

Because of Luode's various interventions, at this moment the Zerg forces on Char have not recovered to the Blade Empress's reign.

"StarCraft warriors prepare to land and stop, then directly land on Char's surface." Before the Imperial battlecruisers descended to the surface, Jim Raynor had already issued the total attack order.

If it were a normal landing squad, they would need to board large landing craft to land safely, but StarCraft warriors do not need that, they only need a simple device and their own armor, and can easily drop from space onto the planetary surface.

After receiving the order, 100,000 newly formed Imperial StarCraft warriors donned their powered armor, then boarded simple landing devices.

Like raindrops, they densely descended from the human battlecruisers, and upon seeing these StarCraft warriors begin to descend.

Countless dragons also swooped over, wanting to tear them apart in midair, to rip these StarCraft warriors to shreds.

But obviously, the dragons picked the wrong opponent this time, they are now facing not those previous StarCraft grunts, those fragile ghosts or firebats.

But rather superbly resilient StarCraft warriors, these StarCraft warriors with bare hands grabbed the dragons' necks, then drew their chainswords from behind, and directly pierced through the dragons.

Some StarCraft warriors' power completely surpassed the Zerg's imagination, let alone a single dragon, even if a dozen dragons came together.

They could not inflict any effective harm on these warriors, whose bodies could even spew large amounts of high-temperature flame.

In just an instant, these dragon units were burned to ashes.

"Long live the Empire, kill all these bugs!"

Some dragons charged forward, several acting together, tearing off the limbs of some StarCraft warriors.

But this was useless, what flowed from their severed limbs was not flesh and blood, but high-temperature magma.

The dragon army did not cause too much trouble for the StarCraft warriors in the sky, almost no StarCraft warriors were killed, all StarCraft warriors successfully landed on the ground, only some had limbs torn off by dragon attacks.

Their powered armor was damaged, but soon the human transfer ships had already landed on the ground, these StarCraft warriors could also receive spare armor.

After landing on the ground, large numbers of Banelings, as well as zerglings, cockroaches, and even ground units attacked.

"Brothers, fight till death, kill all these bugs, let them know humanity's greatness, humanity's might." Jim Raynor raised his chainsword in hand, then led the charge forward, charging straight at the Zerg.

These 2.5-meter-tall hulks, after donning powered armor, generally reached nearly 3 meters in height, their terrifying physique launched the charge, especially with 100,000 in number, making the very earth seem to tremble.

Moreover, the attackers were not only StarCraft warriors, humanity this time brought several million troops, large numbers of aerial support units.

Human engineering vehicles also landed with the battlecruisers on the ground, serving as auxiliary forces to help StarCraft warriors wage war.

Vast numbers of Zerg roared up from underground, countless Zerg swarms poured out, StarCraft warriors formed a wall of steel cast, continuously advancing against the Zerg.

On the battlefield, flesh and blood flew everywhere, countless Zerg fell, the Zerg's attacks, even the suicide explosions of explosive Zerg's acidic spray could not inflict major damage on these StarCraft warriors.

These guys' regenerative ability is terrifying to the extreme, at this moment observing the battlefield, the Blade Empress even had an illusion.

Damn it, am I the Zerg or are you the Zerg? This regenerative ability is too terrifying! Chop off arms, chop off legs, even the whole body split in half, a gush of red magma flowed out, then it just regrew a body, is this a joke?

The Blade Empress fundamentally does not know, Luode spent how much to create these StarCraft warriors, the apocalypse virus and his own elixirs, merely a part.

Luode also added some self-healing cells obtained from the Marvel world, from Wolverine's self-healing cells.

It can be said that as long as they are not killed on the spot, these StarCraft warriors, even if reduced to just a head, given time, they can quickly recover.

The only way to kill these StarCraft warriors is one: destroy their brains.

"Dispatch the Thunder Beast units to attack, use Thunder Beasts to break their lines." The Blade Empress issued her combat order.

These low-level Zerg under her command obviously can no longer threaten these formidable StarCraft warriors, if so, then dispatch the Zerg's ace army, the Thunder Beasts!

These monsters' human physiques are indeed formidable, even when she was the Blade Empress, she was roughly comparable to these warriors, only relying on powerful psionic combat.

"Mengsk, where exactly did you get this technology? Where exactly did you get this powerful power?" The Blade Empress gritted her teeth and spoke.

On the battlefield, the Zerg army began retreating steadily, under the leadership of the StarCraft warriors, the human legion gained an unimaginable overwhelming advantage. Facing a group of unkillable, immensely powerful, incredibly fast, extremely enduring monsters, even the Zerg fell into a bitter struggle.

These StarCraft warriors, each can match up to hundreds or even thousands of Zerg, plus the large numbers of human auxiliary forces arriving from the rear.

The orbital cannons of the battlecruiser mother ships in the sky began bombarding the Zerg below, human aerial units dealt with dragons, the battle situation began to turn overwhelmingly unfavorable for the Zerg.

"Roar!"

A terrifying howl came, the entire ground began to tremble, emitting a dong-dong-dong sound.

A group of monsters, each over ten meters tall and dozens of meters long, burst up from underground. These monsters resembled rhinoceroses, with enormous bodies, thick skin and flesh, and wore heavy armor on their backs.

"The beasts are the Zerg's thunder beasts—be careful, be careful! The Thor army is deploying, the Thor army is deploying!" A human commander shouted loudly upon seeing the massive creatures charging forward.

Having fought the Zerg for many years, they naturally understood some of the Zerg's combat units; the Zerg's strongest ground force was the thunder beast.

Once this monster charges, it can even break through a legion of ten thousand soldiers, and its external skeletal armor is indestructible.

Against such colossal beasts, humans typically deploy their strongest war weapon, Odin, to engage in guerrilla warfare.

Exactly! Guerrilla warfare! Because even the Odin combat mech cannot face these thunder beasts head-on.

The only thing capable of facing these beasts head-on is the Empire's newly developed war weapon, Odin.

For this war, the Empire also produced several Odins, but the number deployed was insufficient—compared to these thunder beasts, the gap is simply too large.

The Zerg's thunder beasts number in the hundreds; this force alone could break through the entire human frontline.

"Brothers, it's time to show the strength of the star warriors! Draw your thermal blades, sever the limbs of these giants, and take them down!" Jim Raynor sheathed his chainsaw sword and drew a thermal blade, shouting the order.

Swish! Swish! Swish! The star warriors moved in coordinated unison, sheathing their chainsaw swords and then equipping high-temperature scorching cutting blades.

These thermal blades require no external power source, as the intense heat radiating from their bodies can charge the weapons, thus significantly reducing the burden on their kinetic armor.

"Kill! Kill!"

Even if a thunder beast of immense size approaches, a dozen star warriors in kinetic armor can sever its limbs and topple the colossal creature.

Buzz buzz buzz buzz!

This is the sound of the thermal blade cutting—countless thunder beasts were felled by the star warriors; perhaps a single star warrior could not match a thunder beast.

But if a dozen, or even hundreds, attack together, then these thunder beasts cannot withstand it, and the star warriors reduce them to countless fragments in an instant.

The Zerg's thunder beast army did pose a threat to humanity, slowing their advance slightly.

But it was quickly resolved by the star warriors—so swiftly that even the Blade Empress and the Zerg brood mothers had no time to react.

What's happening? They actually lost? On the front lines, the Zerg lost to humans—what a joke! If humans relied on nuclear bombs or various aerial bombardments to defeat the Zerg, there'd be nothing to say, but in direct frontal combat, when will humans ever be a match for the Zerg? Even if equipped with psionic shields and wielding psionic cutting blades, the protoss—whose individual combat strength is abnormal—cannot face swarms of Zerg armies.

Yet now the entire battlefield shows a one-sided trend: the Zerg troops are fearless, but they cannot withstand such efficient slaughter.

Time passed slowly; the human army had already landed for several hours, the battle expanded further, and the scales of victory had completely tipped toward humanity.

These star warriors formed an extremely terrifying force, launching a massacre against the Zerg.

The human support troops following behind felt, for the first time, that war could be so easy.

"Damn it! What exactly are these creatures? They're just unkillable little strong ones!" Sarah Kerrigan shouted angrily.

Since her debut, she had never encountered such troublesome foes—physically abnormal, each one an unkillable little strong one.

"Your Majesty, we, we might consider retreating, withdrawing into the Leviathan warship." Izsha said.

Actually, speaking honestly, if the Zerg used all their current power, eliminating this star warrior force would still be no problem—for example, those newly developed units of a few people, those flying scorpions, and those newly developed mantis-blade units.

These could defeat the star warriors on the front lines; although they hadn't defeated the star warriors, the Zerg army had still gained some victories.

As long as these creatures have their heads severed and the heads destroyed, they cannot regenerate and can be completely killed.

But the problem is, the true leader does not agree—he absolutely refuses to let the Zerg fight with full force! The newly developed units by Master Abathur are completely barred from the battlefield, and even the power of the super Leviathan warship is not allowed to be used.

Know that the super Leviathan warship's power is immense—due to the stellar furnace within, its interior holds abundant energy, capable of firing a super energy main cannon from its maw.

Its power is sufficient to destroy an entire planet's surface, even directly strike the planetary core and detonate the whole planet.

But there's nothing to be done—these extremely powerful weapons, the new leader refuses to use; after all, these lowly Zerg are merely cannon fodder, and as long as there's sufficient energy, the Zerg can produce endless numbers of them.

Everything is for the master's will.

"We won't just let this go—how many star warrior bodies have we collected in total?" the Blade Empress asked, taking a deep breath.

"Your Majesty, we're sorry—we haven't collected a single intact star warrior corpse, not even a drop of blood.

Their regenerative ability is also strong; we can't even capture them alive, and some star warriors self-destruct when near death." Izsha said.

If these star warriors are near their comrades, their teammates will immediately rescue them; but if alone,

when surrounded by the Zerg army and facing certain death, their bodies will undergo violent explosions, and all Zerg within the blast radius will be consumed by fire.

"As for corpses, if we can't find them, so be it—but why haven't we collected even flesh and blood?" the Blade Empress frowned, asking.

He had originally wanted to collect some star warrior corpses, gather data on them, then investigate what this newly developed human war weapon actually is, to find a countermeasure.

Even to incorporate this genetic technology into the Zerg swarm's technology—after all, the Zerg are the true masters of genetic manipulation, the real experts in biotechnology in this world.

"Your Majesty, when these star warriors are injured, what flows from their bodies is not blood, but a kind of magma; even after their arms and limbs are severed,

these severed parts also turn into magma and quickly dissolve, making it impossible to obtain a living specimen." Izsha said.

Who knows what these creatures' body structure actually is? Their interiors are entirely magma.

How would one extract this flowing substance? It's impossible—indeed, it cannot even be preserved.

Bang! Bang! The Blade Empress angrily pounded the ground, then let out a piercing scream; a psionic wave radiated outward from her as the center.

"Huh! I understand now—order a retreat, connect all the Zerg mothers to the Leviathan warship, we abandon Char." the Blade Empress said. (End of chapter)
