Chapter 385 Templar! Hand-rubbing thunder! Darram Star Spirit!

"Okay, stop talking nonsense. What's going on now?"

Renault only treated Ariel as his sister, so he was usually more pampering to her, but he didn't realize Ariel's feelings for him.

Paul, who was perceptive, soon noticed something was wrong. He could see Ariel's feelings for Renault from her almost stringy eyes.

Seeing this, Paul took a half step back and acted like a melon-eating and watching a show.

"As you can see now, the second keystone fragment brought back by Tychus is here. From the trace radiation emitted from its interior, they are indeed a set."

Ariel summarized her analysis.

"Thank you for your hard work. Have you found anything new?" Renault continued to ask.

Ariel shook her head and responded: "Through my scanning observation, the fragments did not show any signs of operation. It seems that only after collecting all the fragments can we know its true function."

"The only thing that can be confirmed is that the keystone fragment contains energy that we can hardly imagine."

"This fragment will soon be transferred to the flagship of the Megacorp. Perhaps their scientific research team can find some new clues."

Since the Rangers and the Megacorp formed an alliance, Ariel Hansen has received an invitation from the Megacorp's scientific research department. In the Megacorp, she has a better chance to realize her scientific research ideals.

But compared to realizing her ideals, Ariel, who is in love, obviously wants to be with Jim Raynor more at this moment, so she has stayed on the Hyperion until now, guarding this small laboratory.

"Well, I hope they really work."

Raynor looked at the keystone fragments in front of him and said with a heavy heart. When a person lives in another person's heart, he will not notice the person in front of him.

At this moment, Raynor just wants to collect all the keystone fragments as soon as possible and save the infected Kerrigan.

"Don't worry, our efforts will bear fruit, I can assure you." Paul patted Renault on the shoulder and promised him.

In the next month, everything went smoothly.

The engineering department of the Universal Corporation quickly established multiple refineries for mining and processing terazine on the planet of Besher, and found a lot of Protoss mechanical devices from the altar left by the Tal'darim.

This is very helpful for the Corporation to reverse crack the Protoss's technology points.

However, the most unexpected thing is that the Corporation's troops also found a prison built by the Tal'darim under an altar, in which a group of Templars were imprisoned.

Obviously, they were prisoners that the Tal'darim did not have time to transfer when they retreated.

Not long after, Paul and Renault, who received the news, rushed here together.

It was a prison that looked like a transparent pyramid, with a green psychic barrier that isolated more than a dozen Templars inside.

When they saw Jim Raynor coming, one of the Templars jumped to the edge of the cage with joy and shouted to Raynor:

"Raynor! I didn't expect to see you here. Are these people your Rangers?"

Raynor had led the Rangers and fought against the Zerg with the Protoss troops, so many Templars knew Raynor.

In the Protoss camp, Raynor and his Rangers were also one of the few trustworthy forces. It was no wonder that they were so excited to see an old acquaintance coming here.

"Tanis? It turned out to be you. How could you be imprisoned here by the Tal'darim? What happened?"

Raynor asked back. It was not so easy for the Templars to be captured by the Tal'darim. For a moment, he wondered if the other party was pretending to surrender.

"These damn Tal'darim are the scum of the Protoss!"

When the Tal'darim was mentioned, Tanis was furious. He explained the cause and effect to Raynor.

"Those damn Tal'darim have always relied on stealing and looting fleets of other Protoss tribes to arm themselves, and our fleet was ambushed by them."

"In order to force us to join the Tal'darim, Naion also used terazine to control our minds. Others have succumbed to the Tal'darim, and only we have persisted until now!"

Hearing this, Paul nodded thoughtfully.

It turns out that terazine is a drug that the Tal'darim use to brainwash other Protoss to join their camp. It is no wonder that they attach so much importance to this resource.

As long as this thing is there, the population of the Tal'darim can be supplemented by robbing other Protoss tribes.

After confirming the identity of this group of prisoners again and again, Raynor turned his head and said to Paul: "No doubt, they are the Templars of Aiur, and they are not in the same group as the Tal'darim."

"How do you plan to deal with these Templars?"

Of course, Raynor hopes that the Universal Corporation can let these Templars go. After all, they have fought side by side with him and can be regarded as comrades who have been through life and death.

Paul knew that these Templars belonged to the "Daram Protoss" camp.

This is the mainstream faction of the Protoss camp. For example, the Golden Fleet that appeared earlier is the ace fleet of the Daram Protoss.

They are different from the Tal'darim Protoss. The social structure of the Daram Protoss is divided into law enforcers, Templars, Khalai engineers and scientists.

Pursuing truth and order is their goal, which is in sharp contrast to the brutal Tal'darim.

Judging from the current situation, there is no need for the Universal Corporation to conflict with the Daram Protoss camp. At least there is no fundamental conflict of interest between the two sides.

"Since they are your old friends, let you handle them."

Paul smoothly made a favor.

"Thank you." Renault glanced at Paul gratefully.

"Then how do I get you out? There are no locks here."

Renault looked at this psychic cage, but he couldn't see anything interesting about it.

"This barrier can limit the psychic energy in our bodies. What you need most is to find a way to create a gap in it so that we can regain our strength and break free."

Tanis responded hastily.

For some reason, Paul suddenly felt that this scene was a bit like the scene in "Journey to the West" where the star and the golden bowl save Sun Wukong.

If you want to be a good person, you have to do it once and for all.

Paul looked at the energy barrier in front of him and volunteered: "Leave it to me."

After the words fell, Paul retreated a distance and asked the people around him to disperse. He activated the ball lightning device on his wrist and created a "sky thunder ball" with his bare hands.

"What kind of move is this!"

Seeing that Paul had forcefully rolled out a ball of thunder, the Templars involuntarily took a few steps back.

They have never seen this thing before, let alone heard of any human being who can rub the sky thunder!

The power armor reactor on Paul's body was roaring, and the ball lightning condensed in his palm was gradually compressed into a high-density energy sphere, which seemed to burst out with violent destructive power at any time.

Tanis suddenly panicked. Unexpectedly, he thought Paul was planning to destroy them all. Why was this ball lightning so scary?

"That's enough, that's enough. There's no need for such a huge amount of energy. If this continues, the entire dungeon will collapse!" Tanis quickly reminded.

Of course, Paul knew how to act appropriately. He deliberately showed off this operation in front of these Templars, just to take the opportunity to show off and establish the prestige of a giant company.

Immediately, ball lightning shot out from the palm of Paul's hand. After improvements by the scientific research department of the giant company, he could shoot this energy ball using a move similar to the vitality bomb in "Dragon Ball".

Although it doesn't have much effect, it is very handsome.

The electric arc made a sharp crackling sound in mid-air, and the ball lightning dragged a long tail flame and suddenly hit the psychic barrier.

The moment it touched the ball lightning, a huge current instantly covered the pyramid, and the fine current lines were like small snakes, wrapped around the psychic cage.

This scene made the Templars tremble with fear, fearing that they would also be affected by ball lightning.

Fortunately, Paul didn't intend to hurt them, just to give these Templars a lesson.

After all, the attitude of the protoss towards humans has always been that the strong despise the weak.

Even the seemingly civilized and institutionally advanced Durham Star Spirits are still arrogant and condescending towards humans.

Otherwise, their golden fleet would not have carried out a one-click purification procedure on the planet invaded by the Zerg without any communication.

Looking at the entire universe, the only ones who can respect and care for the weak and give them the opportunity to create their own value are the giant companies in the universe.

The rest of the civilized species, without exception, have the tendency to bully the weak engraved in their genes.

That's why Paul decided to do a whole wave of "hard work" to let the Templars know that humans also have the power to control supernatural powers.

Under the continuous impact of the powerful ball lightning, the psychic barrier quickly overloaded and failed until it completely shattered and disappeared.

The Templars who witnessed the whole process were incredible at Paul's control of energy, which gave them a sudden new understanding of the human camp.

As Paul expected, after seeing his abilities, the attitude of these templars towards him was obviously much more respectful.

Out of respect for the strong, Tanis stepped forward and said, "Thank you for your rescue. What is your name, and which human camp do you belong to?"

In the process of dealing with humans, the protoss has also done some research on humans and learned that their internal camps are divided into the rebel army, the Tyranid Federation, the Earth Alliance and other forces.

"Paul Atreides, director of the operations team of the All-Heaven Advance Team of the Development Department of a giant company in the world."

After hearing Paul's self-report, Tanis was a little surprised. He didn't expect that there was such a powerful corporate force in the human camp.

Even the protoss of the Tal'darin clan are no match for them!

Is it possible that the current Dilian League has become a world dominated by consortium oligarchs?

"Thank you, Paul."

"We will celebrate your heroic deeds in the Kara." Tanis promised Paul.

Kara is the core religious form of the Durham Star Spirits. They can connect their consciousnesses together to form a huge spiritual network system.

As long as one Templar knows Paul, then all the protoss will also learn all the information about Paul through spiritual sharing.

This efficient method of information transmission is also the reason why Duram's protoss society is relatively united and friendly. After all, everyone can understand each other's thoughts through spiritual connection.

After Paul nodded, he then asked: "What are you going to do next? Do you want us to send someone to escort you back?"

"Thank you, I don't need to trouble you anymore."

Tanis responded: "As soon as we re-establish the connection with Kara, we can call the fleet to pick us up and leave."

"In addition, we will find ways to fight back with revenge. They have also occupied an abandoned Xel'Naga world ship, where many protoss compatriots are imprisoned."

"We have to find a way to save them!"

A world ship is a very large space ship that often has multi-functional features such as scientific research, residence, and combat.

For example, the Protoss' super mothership, the Spear of Adun, is a world ship that can carry the Durham Protoss through the "Celestial Tribulation".

The scrapped world ship that Tal'darin occupied was the vehicle used by the ancient Xel'Naga to patrol the protoss world.

Tanis' words caught Paul's attention, and he hurriedly asked: "Do you know the whereabouts of these Ta'darin?"

"Um."

The error-free version is being read! First release of this novel.

Tanis nodded: "We were originally imprisoned there, but Neon moved us here in order to corrupt us with terazine."

"Are there cultural relics like keystone fragments on that world ship?" Paul asked one after another.

Since the Tal'darin regard key fragments as their sacred objects, they must have more than one fragment in their hands.

Although Paul was not sure whether this was the case, his strong intuition told him that given the Ta'darin tribe's tendency to snatch things, they might have other fragments.

"I'm not sure if there's anything you're looking for there, but as far as I know, there is a treasure trove on that worldship."

"I think Tal'darin should store all the collected things there." Tanis said knowingly.

With these words, Paul immediately determined the target of the next action. The place they were about to go was the abandoned Xel'Naga World Ship!

While taking the keystone fragments, the giants of the world must also completely eradicate the Ta'darin tribe ruled by Niang. They must either accept the recruitment of the giants, or go to the void to accompany their god Amon.

After all, the giant company has already done something to offend Tal'darin. If he doesn't pursue him to the end at this time, he will leave himself with a serious problem.

More importantly, this time Paul also unknowingly discovered a force worthy of alliance. After the Templars return to report the situation here, there is a high probability that the Durham Protoss will send troops to assist.

By then, the troops of Durham Protoss can also bear part of the offensive firepower. If the three-party coalition forces take action together, the integration costs of the giant companies can be reduced by a large amount!

Never had such a wonderful start!

Paul immediately made a draft in his mind, preparing to report the entire situation to the headquarters and plan subsequent action decisions.

After a while, the released Templars, after getting in touch with the headquarters, temporarily stayed on the Baishel star, patiently waiting for the arrival of the gold fleet.

The expeditionary force of the world's giants also searched the ruins, altars and other areas on Baishel Planet, and once again seized a lot of supplies.

Here, Li Ang, who is sitting at the headquarters of Wanjie Base, has received news reports from the front line.

Paul made a simple summary of the spoils, core resources and intelligence of this operation and reported it to Li Ang.

The most important point is that it is hoped that with the help of the Templar Knights, they can follow the clues to establish more connections with the Duram Protoss camp and win over this allied force.

This is a very critical political resource. With the ally of Duram Protoss, global giants can easily do many things in the "StarCraft" universe.

As for the Protoss, their current task is to prevent the Zerg invasion and defend their responsibilities as the next Xel'Naga.

"Boss, can the Protoss really establish a community of interests with us? I doubt this!"

After learning about Paul's idea of ​​establishing diplomatic relations with the Durham Protoss and realizing an alliance, Morgan Blackhand always felt that something was not quite right.

There is no need to explain the truth that people who are not from my race must have different minds.

The attitude of the species of protoss toward humans is probably the same as how humans feel when they look at monkeys, and there is no way humans can become allies with monkeys.

During the integration process of the 004 "Halo" universe, human beings were the successors appointed by the Forerunner civilization and the highly anticipated ones.

That's why the world's giants can win over the Star Alliance at ultra-low integration costs.

This kind of opportunity is rare but hard to come by. After all, not every human civilization in the universe is qualified to succeed the legacy of the previous "god".

At least in the "StarCraft" universe, humans don't have this treatment.

"I also support Morgan's idea. Who knows what bad things those protoss will come up with." Johnny Silverhand also expressed his stance.

Ott Cunningham, Lucy and others remained silent. They did not know the situation of the protoss. Without investigation, they had no right to speak. There would be no problem if they spoke less at this time.

"Sometimes, foreign races are easier to deal with than the same race. At least here, the protoss is far more worthy of alliance than the Terran Federation and the Earth Federation."

Li Ang responded to Morgan calmly, Johnny said.

According to the current development of the situation, the Protoss is definitely the strongest overlord civilization force in this cosmic plane.

Whether it is identity or technological strength, the protoss has completely destroyed the human camp here.

First of all, the protoss is the successor that the previous Xel'Naga focused on. Regardless of talent or qualifications, this civilized species can withstand the test.

As long as you follow the evolution process slowly, the protoss will reach perfection sooner or later, rank in the Immortal Class, and ascend to become the new Xel'Naga.

Although the Protoss experienced a series of changes such as the War of the Eternal Worlds and took many detours during their cultivation, which led to the previous Xel'Naga leaving in disappointment.

But the Protoss' innate psychic talent has not changed.

This is the same as the high school tyrant in the class who was addicted to games and wasted two and a half years, resulting in poor grades, but he only took half a year to return to the top.

His talent is there, which time cannot take away.

And the fact is indeed so. After the chaos was rectified, the Protoss formed the Darram camp with the combination of the Kal'ai Protoss and the Nerazim Protoss.

They began to re-establish the cultivation method of spiritual fusion and communication in the form of the Kara religion.

The ancestral method cannot be abandoned. Relying on this cultivation secret book, this Darram Protoss has embarked on the path of spiritual sanctification and becoming a pure spiritual power species.

As long as they practice along this correct path, the Protoss will sooner or later become the new Xel'Naga, that is, the gods of the "StarCraft" universe!

But now the most critical problem has come. Amon brought his damn Zerg to the three-dimensional universe to make trouble and try to destroy the entire universe.

This is like the Tang Dynasty champion who has studied hard for ten years. He just finished the provincial examination and almost locked the first place. He is waiting for the announcement of the results and appointment, and he is on the peak of his life.

As a result, Huang Chao led his bandit army into Chang'an!

Nowadays, the situation faced by the Darram Protoss is that there are Zerg outside who are causing destruction, and there are traitors like Tal'darim who believe in the evil god Amon inside.

The human camp that happened to develop gave them an opportunity to reduce the cost of maintaining stability.

After all, it would be very troublesome to rely on the power of the Protoss alone to eliminate the Zerg.

It just so happens that humans have also shown certain potential in the process of development, and they may not be unable to become their next successors.

So in the minds of the Protoss, humans are actually more like monkeys with evolutionary potential.

As for whether they are enlightened and become Sun Wukong, or stubborn and just mortal monkeys, it depends on the subsequent fortune of humans.

Judging from the current situation, the Rangers led by Jim Raynor have the opportunity to bring the human camp back on track.

However, whether it is the Rangers, the Terran Federation, or the Earth Alliance, the Darram Protoss only talks with humans who can cooperate, and they also need such a helper.

The Universal Corporation has both strong enough energy and is willing to send out signals of cooperation. As long as the Protoss can calculate the costs clearly, they will definitely hope to cooperate with the Corporation.

Even if it is only temporary.

Leon has already sorted out the underlying logic of the alliance between the Universal Corporation and the Protoss, so he acquiesced to Paul's contact with those Templars.

After listening to Leon's analysis, everyone showed a look of realization. No wonder the boss continued to send Paul to carry out this mission. After all, this kid loves to win allies for the Corporation.

The captain of each generation of the All-Heaven Vanguard will have his own style of doing things. V's characteristic is to perfectly execute the tasks assigned by Leon and handle various complex variable problems along the way.

If the score is based on a 100-point system, V, the natural king of rolls, can get a full score of 100.

David Martinez can be regarded as the second-generation version of V. His work style is like a precise scalpel, meticulously completing the tasks assigned by Leon.

But compared with V, it is still a little short of optimizing details, but it can also be given 99 points.

And Paul Atreides, this young man, is very different. His way of thinking is basically based on Leon's core ideas.

In the final analysis, Leon's task requirements are actually only two points, that is: efficiency and cost control.

Reducing costs and increasing efficiency is the company's operating realm that every boss desires, but this requires the concerted efforts of the boss and employees.

The boss needs to have a pattern and determination, and the employees need to truly understand the boss's true intentions.

To achieve this, both are indispensable, otherwise it will only have a negative effect.

It just happens that Paul loves to constantly pull people together to fight monsters on the way to perform tasks. No matter who he is, as long as he can complete the task.

This happens to be the optimal solution to achieve efficiency and control costs.

It just happens that Paul is handsome enough. As the saying goes, appearance is justice. This fresh and unworldly handsome guy makes people feel trustworthy at first glance.

This is also the potential reason why Paul has been able to win allies for the giant company. The first impression is always important.

So in Li Ang's mind, this kid's score can definitely reach 120 points!

At this moment, the executives of the giant company who realized this were very clear that Paul's future achievements were limitless.

If nothing unexpected happens, he will be the first employee of the giant company to surpass V since the establishment of the Universal Giant Company's Advance Team!
