I think I've created the most perverted army of mages in the history of the world, bar none.
Have you ever seen a Blood Elf Mage wearing a full suit of power armor, with a tail of plasma spewing out from his back, flying through the air at supersonic speeds and casting Blizzard spells?
Have you ever seen a Gandalf-like old man with a head full of white hair, a beard that reached his third rib, and every wrinkle on his face exuded wisdom and a sense of erudition? Nestled in the Space Marine armor with half a cigar in his mouth, he guided the Arcane Missiles while yelling, "Let's go! Fire and blood!! "?
… Master Victor, you have fallen.
In the process of using the Zerg as a sample, we could already confirm that this batch of Mages from Azeroth would be very effective against the Zerg. Even though their magic power was not as strong as that OP Mage God like Raven, they could still cause the Zerg endocrine imbalance and other gynecological … cough cough, and other kinds of fatal injuries. The Zerg, who were incomparably fierce in the background of Starcraft, were so vulnerable in the face of the special energy attacks from another world, it was really a pleasant surprise.
Of course, even though the Mage army could be used as a fresh force, it was definitely not the main force. This was the battlefield of the Star Wars, and our enemies were billions of Zerg. Even if we gathered Mages from the three worlds, they would not be able to be the main force in terms of numbers. More importantly, the attacks of the Mages were only effective against the Zerg, as for the other races in this sector …
I did not think that the indigenous Mages from Azeroth could go against the advanced weapons of the Star Wars civilization.
The true main force of the battle was still our battleship.
The human mages were naturally aware of this, and they didn't show any dissatisfaction. In the "Battlefield of the Gods", they never expected to be part of the fighting force from the very beginning. Just standing in this beautiful foreign land and being able to fight alongside the Gods was enough to excite these otherworldly people who had grown up in the fires of war and worshiped various heroes and legends.
"We will become an Epic."
The old Mage Victor said coolly as he pulled down his mask with a cigar in his mouth.
Once again, Master Victor, you have fallen.
During the few days of the Mage army's emergency training, Reynolds was in a semi-chaotic state. Magic, this kind of thing had disappeared from the human legends of Starcraft for countless years. Now that they had completely embarked on the path of technology, they had long forgotten this mysterious art that many people were fascinated by. Now that they had personally witnessed a living Mage army releasing beautiful magic in front of them, many of Reynolds' staunch materialists were flabbergasted.
Even Reynolds himself was no exception.
I didn't waste any time to let him understand the ins and outs of everything. I simply told him two points. "First, magic does not exist in this universe. As a creature native to this universe, unless you encounter a miracle (such as a Xi Ling Apostle or a Dingdang who is traveling incognito), you will never be able to learn magic in your lifetime. Second, the power of the Xiling Empire includes the other worlds. The powerful Empire Empire. The Mages that you see the power of the powerful, the Empire, the Empire empire, the Empire, the Mage, the Army, the other world, and they are.
Then, Reynolds and his close friends were collectively horrified.
The leader of this batch of mages was naturally Jaina. After a few days of emergency training, she and her soldiers were more or less familiar with the unfamiliar battlefield and enemies. Yes, there was also the mysterious armor that could excite any goblin to the point of self-destructing. Of course, Jaina's power armor was specially designed and improved. The cost of this' Captain Mech 'was twice that of ordinary power armor. It had a streamlined design and was basically inspired by the armor of the Federation's Ghost Agents (again, it was the idea of that gaming geek Bubble). After wearing it, one would never feel as cumbersome as ordinary power armor. Even though most male mages said that a large power armor that weighed half a ton was men's romance, women who liked elegance and beauty naturally preferred this kind of close-fitting light armor.
However, there were pros and cons to everything. The armor itself was light, which meant that the defense of the improved power armor was far inferior to the general version. Although its performance was still enough for Victor to defeat a reinforced company of the Federation Marine Corps with his bare hands, there was still a limit to its range of application. This was because a large amount of energy had to be used to strengthen the armor's psionic shield to make up for the lack of physical armor. This improved power armor's magic amplification effect was still unsatisfactory, which was why it was set to be used exclusively by the Chief. As the leader of the Azeroth Frontline Army, Jaina did not have many opportunities to personally go to the battlefield. Even if it was slightly inferior to the magic amplification device, with Jaina's powerful strength, it was negligible.
"The Mages of the various races have already mastered the knack of using this magical armor to assist in battle. It is just as you said, as easy to wear as a piece of clothing." Jaina and I walked side by side in the temporary Mage Zone in the General City as she reported the situation of the Mages' training to me. "We are currently learning how to adapt to the radar system and various lock-on images on our masks. Although those things are convenient, some of the older Mages are unable to adapt to them."
This was inevitable. Although the advanced equipment installed on the power armor to facilitate long-range combat had been upgraded by Tawil to a fully intelligent model, the natives of the other world who had never used advanced technology would still need some time to get used to the millimeter range information on the enemy's head.
"And then? Are there any more problems? "
I asked in detail. After all, this batch of power armor was designed in a day. No matter how meticulous Tawil was, she was still a Shiring Apostles. Her lack of understanding of carbon-based life could cause her results to be flawed.
For example, accidentally forgetting the oxygen supply … Er, that shouldn't be so bad, right?
"Everything else is fine, but there are three problems," Jaina said awkwardly. "The first is the elves, including the Night Elves and Blood Elves. They all think that there is a problem with the design of the power armor's helmet. If their ears are curled up for a long period of time, they will feel uncomfortable. The second is the dwarves and gnomes. Even though controlling the power armor isn't a problem, every time they put on the armor, they have to put on a pile of things, which makes them feel awkward. The third is the Tauren Shamans and mages … Their bodies are too big, and the horns on their heads require special helmets. Also, there are often Tauren hooves that get stuck in the armor. Saar and Kane contacted me yesterday evening. The next batch of mages will be the Thunder Cliff Frontline Army. There are a lot of Tauren Shamans, so it would be best for us to prepare some extra-large power armor for them."
I said, "… I will add a production line to the Bubble right now …"
To be honest, I didn't know why I suddenly thought of designing a set of Tauren gunner armor.
Seven days had passed since the swarm's defeat.
The exploration of the neighboring star systems had been completed long ago. Originally, I had intended to send an EOP-03 to solve the problem, but the situation this time seemed to be more complicated. According to the images sent back by the probe, there were traces of intelligent life everywhere on the planet. Even though they had been covered by the swarm's secretions, some of the tall buildings could still be clearly seen. After doing his best to restore and analyze, Reynolds deduced that the ruins on the planet should be from the Proteus Protoss.
I had always been very interested in this mysterious race, but the other party's stubbornness made me feel that it would be quite troublesome to cooperate with them directly. Now that I had found an abandoned colonial planet, if I didn't dissect this planet, I would be letting down the hundreds of research ships that I had brought with me!
Shallow Shallow and I teamed up with Liliana, the most unreliable trio in the Empire, personally led three Eternal-class motherships that had just been reassembled and 10,000 frigates of various types to the sky above the planet that we called Planet Pimple (Shallow Shallow had named it after the countless nests that the swarm had dug out on its surface). This investigation and extermination mission would be completed by us personally. Of course, this didn't mean that the three of us were the most suitable professionals for this kind of high-end mission, but …
The three of us were currently the most idle fellows in the entire base camp of Planet Black Egg …
Even Big Sister could be the strategist, little lunatics like Pandora and Visca could be in charge of the expansion and training of the army, but I actually had to be grouped with the crazy girl Shallow Shallow and the unreliable and sharp-tongued Priestess Liliana as the trio of idlers. We could only come out to do the most unskilled job of sweeping up the planet. Life was indeed like the fragrant West Lake Longjing. Even if you were worth 18,000 yuan per catty, you were destined to be soaked in tragedy in the end …
Although we had brought a huge fleet of 10,000 frigates, the main combat force of our operation this time was the landing troops. Vega finally found a chance for her to show her skills. Planet landing battles and various kinds of search and infiltration operations were the specialty of the Armored Scorpions, especially when dealing with enemies with a large number of melee units like the swarm of the Zerg. In the original words of these battle-addicted Scorpions, it was: precious targets that you could kill to your heart's content, from the quantity to the quality, it was satisfactory.
In close combat, a well-trained Scorpion could completely defeat tens of thousands of Zerg "Zerglings". The Thousand Synchronized Slashes that applied the Space Folding technology would be impossible to withstand even if the Zerg evolved for tens of thousands of years. These Scorpions would destroy the close combat troops of the Zerg in the shortest time possible and were responsible for breaking through the enemy's fortifications, paving the way for the follow-up troops.
The other part of the ground forces was made up of Mages. We had mixed the Ravens and human Mages. Each Raven would lead a hundred human Mages to form a special long-range killing force against the Zerg. The first batch of Mages from Azeroth had formed a total of ten such teams. They would clean up every Proteus ruins under the cover of the Armored Scorpions, and then let our inspection team safely land.
Apart from these strong teams that could be called special forces, the largest number was naturally the regular Schilling soldiers, light vehicles, and single fighter aircrafts. These experienced veterans were divided into hundreds of small teams of varying numbers, and were sent to those areas that were not important but still had a certain scouting value. There were already unmanned reconnaissance aircraft landing near those locations, ensuring the safety of the landing process. Although the Schilling army was strong and fearless, I did not like to let my own soldiers make meaningless sacrifices.
After some preparation work, all the landing troops entered the micro-jump landing capsule that carried them, and began to move towards the entire Pimple Planet (…).
A robotic female voice resounded throughout the bridge, "The Planetary Landing Capsule has entered launch mode. The teleportation coordinates have been adjusted to the surface of the planet. The first batch of landing units, please get ready. Fight for victory and mission. The glory of His Majesty the Emperor is with you."
Accompanied by hundreds of strong beams of light that suddenly shone on the surface of the planet, our first batch of landing troops had safely reached the surface.
"… Err … Lord Oracle?" Jaina's voice sounded a little unconfident from the communication device on the bridge. As it was her first time participating in an operation, in order to set an example, she volunteered to join the first batch of landing troops. "This is Jaina, can you hear me?"
"I can hear you. How is the situation over there?"
"We have safely reached the surface. It is very desolate here, and … a little disgusting."
Jaina's voice sounded obedient. I had no doubt that they had directly occupied the Zerg Moss. There was almost no clean land on the surface of the Pimple Planet.
"Have you discovered the enemy?"
"No response. Our leader, Raven, is currently casting a search-type magic. We will first find a place to hide."
"Alright. Be careful. Vika and her Scorpion Soldiers are with you. Be careful not to stray too far from their defensive perimeter."
After giving some simple instructions, I turned my attention back to the holographic projections on the bridge. As for Shallow Shallow and Liliana?
The two of them who couldn't stay still had already run over to the landing teleportation device, waiting to start a massacre.
In the holographic projection before me, the surface of the Pimple Planet … err, the surface of the Pimple Planet had hundreds of blue light spots that were gradually expanding into light spots. That meant that the hundreds of landing troops had begun to spread out. However, the reports from the various troops confused me. They had yet to encounter any large-scale Zerg troops. Only a few scattered Zerg troops had been discovered by the landing troops and were immediately wiped out.
This wasn't normal. Logically speaking, with the Zerg's reproductive ability, even if they were unable to form a new climate after so many days, there shouldn't be so few scattered troops on the entire planet, right? Could it be that the one hundred million Zerg troops on this Pimple Planet were their entire army?
If that was the case, the civilizations that were wiped out by the Zerg would cry! They would really cry!
"Your Majesty, this is the 37th landing troop. We have found our target. It seems to be a Proteus palace, but we haven't found any energy residue inside."
Such a report suddenly came from the communicator. I suppressed the doubts in my heart and replied, "Very good. Have you found the enemy's movements?"
"We've experienced a total of three sporadic battles. The enemy has yet to show any large-scale troops, and they haven't organized any form of counterattack against our arrival."
"Mm, continue the operation. Pay attention to concealment."
Immediately after that, the reports from the various advance troops also converged. Naturally, I couldn't respond to all of them, so I handed them over to the other commanders of the fleet. According to the information they had gathered, the majority of the Zerg on this planet had indeed disappeared.
"Mainframe, is there any result from the rescan of the planet?"
I frowned and asked the air.
"Summarizing and comparing the data … The results are the same as the first scan. No traces of Zerg swarms, no special energy reactions, and no dangerous energy radiation detected."
Tsk, what's going on with this strange situation? There are traces of Zerg moss and slimy creatures wreaking havoc everywhere. Why can't we find any traces of them? Could it be that they dared to participate in the Queen of Blades' groom contest?
Just as I had this nonsensical thought, a voice suddenly came from the communicator, "This is the 14th landing troop! We have entered the target. Our preliminary judgment is that this is the Proteus ritual ground. We found the remains of a huge Zerg and are collecting its DNA samples … Comparing samples … Sir! This is a Zerg Queen! I repeat, this is a Zerg Queen! "
"Are you sure? How did that thing hang up? "
I was shocked. Dead? The Zerg Queen of this planet is dead? No wonder I couldn't find any traces of the enemy anywhere. It turns out that their spawning machine is dead!
"Sir, we found a lot of traces of high-temperature melting at the scene. There are traces of high-temperature cutting tools on the Zerg Queen's body," the commander of the regular landing troop reported in a hurried tone. "There is a certain degree of energy residue at the scene … Wait! Sir! We found the Primordial Psionic Energy residue of Proteus! The one who killed this Zerg Queen may be the Proteus Protoss! "
Proteus? They are on this planet?
This news was immediately conveyed to the minds of every landing troop leader. After confirming that the alert level was lowered by one level, these advance troops immediately expanded the scale of the search. Very soon, in a few areas close to the 14th landing troop's search area, other troops also found similar traces of battle. It seemed that the Proteus troops mainly concentrated their attacks on the Zerg in these few areas. However, we didn't find any corpses of the Proteus soldiers, and we didn't know if they were eaten by the Zerg or eaten by the Zerg …
Just as we thought that everything was going well and the enemy wouldn't appear, a Raven suddenly sent back an emergency communication, "Your Majesty! This is the 3rd Raven Troop! Our druids have discovered a hidden life force in an underground cave! We have lost contact with the detectors a minute ago! We are about to enter the crypt, requesting follow-up troops to follow up! "
This news finally caused a change in the peaceful exploration process. The two regular troops closest to the 3rd Raven Troop were immediately ordered to approach the crypt that they had found. I told Shallow Shallow and Liliana about the discovery below. Unsurprisingly, both of them were excited on the spot!
"We can finally go on an adventure!! Ah Jun, let's go! "
This was Shallow Shallow's excited voice. She seemed to have a completely different concept of going deep into the Zerg's nest than a normal girl.
"That's great! There's going to be a fight this time! "
Liliana followed closely behind Shallow Shallow and cheered. How should I put it, I felt that the Priestess of the Goddess of Life was as unreliable as her God …
