Chapter 441: Race against time
Although these two are not that powerful, they are definitely the light of hope for mankind.
Well... Tychus is not counted for the time being. At least Jim Raynor, who is wearing black armor, is mediating between the three tribes with his rangers, and step by step to the final battle.
"Who are you?"
The appearance of Muen was too abrupt, which shocked the two of them. They didn't know what to say for a while.
"You can call me Muen, I'm their captain."
As he said, he pointed to General Zod and others around him.
These words made Jim in the armor more vigilant. The power of these people has exceeded their expectations. How terrible will the man who claims to be the captain of these people be?
There are too many mysterious existences in the universe. Even people like them who can travel in the stars are not sure that they know all of them.
Just like in the past, the human empire in the Koprulu sector has explored for three hundred years, but still has not found anything useful.
It was not until decades ago that they discovered the Zerg and the Protoss who kept hunting the Zerg.
"Excuse me, is there anything I can help you with?"
"Help?" Muen smiled and glanced at their team. "You can't help us, but I think our goals should be the same."
His words were meaningful, and Jim Raynor immediately reacted.
"Is he also coming for the Xel'Naga artifact?"
Jim's heart was gloomy. The Xel'Naga artifact was extremely useful to them, and facing the Tal'Darim Protoss, the pressure on their armed forces was already very great.
If Muen and others were added, he felt that getting more Xel'Naga artifacts from the hands of the Tal'Darim Protoss would become an impossible goal.
"Hahaha, don't worry, I'm just a little interested in that thing, just let me study it, I'm not interested in who they are in."
Muen understood the other party's thoughts very well. After all, this Xel'Naga artifact was an important prop that could help Kerrigan regain her human form, and they couldn't not care.
After getting Muen's answer, Jim's tense nerves relaxed a little.
Anyway, before the more Xel'Naga artifacts, they were not hostile, and they could still cooperate before that.
"Mr. Moon, I think we will cooperate happily!"
While speaking, Jim raised his hand.
"I will!"
Moon smiled and held Jim's power armor arm. They reached a cooperation and went to seize the Xel'Naga artifacts from the hands of the Tal'Darim Protoss.
After confirming the cooperation, Jim began to command the people behind him. There was not much time left for them. They had to take the Xel'Naga artifacts from the hands of the Tal'Darim Protoss before the supernova exploded.
The various abandoned buildings were quickly started, and a large number of weapons and equipment were continuously manufactured.
And Jim kept shouting in the communicator, fighting for more armed forces.
"What do you think of them?"
Moon stood in the distance and looked at the base in full swing, and asked the people around him.
Many Kryptonians were silent for a moment, and finally General Zod spoke.
"Compared to Captain Locke, they are more purposeful and efficient, and their coordination is much better than Captain Locke's tactical team."
They have been guarding Captain Locke for a long time and are familiar with the situation there.
They can clearly see that Jim's team is obviously stronger than Captain Locke's team and is a real elite.
"Maybe this is the difference between the transport fleet and the combat fleet. Locke and his team are obviously more inclined to transport, while Jim and his team are more proficient in combat."
"However, they are still very weak, and this has not changed much."
Fiora took over the conversation. Whether it was Captain Locke's team or Jim Raynor's team, they could clearly feel the strength of both sides.
Although there is a difference in the combat effectiveness of both sides, for many Kryptonians, this difference is nothing at all, just like the difference between black ants and red ants.
For humans, a black ant and a red ant, except for a slightly different size, there is no difference at all.
"Heh, they can't compare with you. You know how powerful Krypton's technology is. And you can absorb energy to strengthen yourself after you are away from the Krypton fragments.
And they are just a group of ordinary humans. At most, they can only use psionic energy."
Listening to Muen's words, everyone nodded slowly. They also understood how unique their race was.
"But, what exactly is psionic energy? Captain Loken can't explain it clearly."
General Zod was still very curious about the psionic energy that Captain Loken talked about. He wanted to know which one was stronger or weaker than their superpowers.
"How should I know! Instead of asking me, you might as well ask Jim."
About psionic energy, Muen didn't know much. In his eyes, this ability was more like a manifestation of powerful mental power.
He could accept that he could manipulate objects with powerful mental power, but he couldn't understand why mental power could also achieve various different abilities.
You should know that the Protoss, who are most proficient in the use of psionic energy, can even release devastating psionic storms through psionic energy. ♦♦ ඏ☆
During their conversation, Jim's base was operating frantically, and soon the blazing flames had spread to the place because a supernova was about to explode.
"All buildings lifted off! Let's go to the next place!"
Jim's voice echoed in the base. He responded immediately after receiving the news that the flames were coming.
They haven't finished production yet, so they can't break through Tal'darin's defenses and seize the Xel'Naga artifact. It will take some time for them to do so.
Following the sound, the engines of all the buildings started. With the powerful propulsion of the engines, all the buildings flew into the air and flew towards a safe area according to Jim's instructions.
“No matter how many times I see them, I’m always amazed by their fantastic ideas.”
Looking at the various buildings flying in the sky, General Zod sighed.
Human beings may not be strong, but they can strengthen themselves in all aspects so that they can survive in various dangerous situations.
"Perhaps this is the reason why humans can survive. After all, without these ideas, they would not be able to block the attack of the Zerg."
Mu En responded with a smile, and everyone also took off and flew around these buildings.
Since they are preparing to cooperate, they naturally have to act together. It is best to follow these buildings now.
Seeing Mu En and others flying into the air, Tychus, who was rushing on the ground, couldn't help but feel a little envious.
"If I could have this ability, I wouldn't need to be locked up in this mobile coffin."
You know, the temperature here is extremely high, and their power armor is constantly cooling so that they can survive.
But Mu En and the others didn't have any insulation measures, so they just flew into the air, flying slowly in the radiation of light that could ignite the earth.
The flames did not spread very quickly, and soon all the buildings reached the second mineral vein. Although the mineral veins here were also very barren, it was enough for them.
"Quick, quick, quick, we must complete production as soon as possible and join the battle!"
Everyone in the base is speeding up production, and all the machinery and equipment are operating at overload. It seems that if they slack off even a little bit, they will be completely left here to wait for death.
Chariots and various weapons and equipment were all produced. These things made Jim's team stronger.
It's just that such a deterrent is completely meaningless to Zod and others.
Their world engine has far more destructive power than these devices.
Jim's weapons can, at most, create a mushroom cloud, turning thousands of meters around into a restricted area.
The World Engine can destroy an entire planet and eventually transform it into the planet they need.
"Sure enough, the development of human science and technology is extremely slow. Even if Captain Loken obtained part of our technology, it would only speed up the development slightly."
After seeing the weapons and equipment produced, the Kryptonian scientists couldn't help but shake their heads.
He could see very clearly that there was almost no difference between these equipment and Captain Loken's, and they were even worse than the new equipment developed by Captain Loken and others after they obtained Kryptonian technology.
"Hahaha, your expectations are too high. Captain Loken and the others have only been lost for a few years. Naturally, there won't be any big changes in such a short period of time."
Mu En chuckled and fell to the ground. These weapons and equipment were almost enough, and the sea of fire behind them was about to arrive.
As soon as he landed, he heard Jim shouting loudly.
"Preparing for the second transfer, separate another team and go with me to find out the true and false status of those Tal'darin protoss."
Their equipment has almost been manufactured, and now all kinds of supplies need to continue to be produced. After this transfer, they can start operations.
"Can you add one of us?"
He said to Jim that since they were ready to cooperate, they naturally had to act together, especially at such a critical moment, they naturally had to participate.
Hearing the sound, Jim turned around and looked over. His unexpected look showed that he had already excluded Mu En and others.
"Do you also want to join? This time we are just going to explore the specific situation of those star spirits and prepare for the battle in a while."
"Of course, it just so happens that you can see their power."
Seeing Mu En and General Zod behave like this, Jim did not refuse.
Mu En's performance has proven their strength to them. With such a powerful force as teammates, it will be easier for them to encounter the Tal'darin Protoss.
Not long after, several Kryptonians joined Jim's team under the orders of General Zod.
"Guess how they and the protoss will react after seeing your abilities?"
After watching Jim and others leave, Mu En looked at General Zod with a smile.
But General Zod did not give an answer. He looked at the leaving team from a distance, looking a little worried.
Although they have powerful power, they have to face those so-called star spirits after all. No one knows what they will encounter.
Seeing that General Zod had no intention of answering, Mu En didn't care, turned around and dissipated into clouds.
…
Ahead is Tal'darin's camp, so be careful.
Jim's voice sounded extremely solemn. He had dealt with the protoss a lot and had some understanding of the inside of the protoss.
The Tal'darin protoss they were about to face were different from ordinary protoss. Not only were these protoss hostile to other races, they were also full of malice towards their fellow protoss.
These protoss are like a group of madmen who will only tear all enemies into pieces.
Recalling the protoss' ability to fight alone, Jim shouted to everyone again.
"Everyone must be careful, Tal'darin protoss is not easy to talk to!"
As the words fell, all the team members were on alert, holding weapons and ready to fight at any time.
Even the few Kryptonians who were following the team were serious. They didn't know much about the protoss.
Everyone groped to the outskirts of the Tal'darin camp, and these protoss built a solid wall outside. They could only break in through the main entrance.
"Jim, there's only one door for entry and exit!" Tychus's voice sounded.
They had circled the camp, and except for two gates, there was no way for them to enter.
"Damn it, now we can only break in head-on!"
Jim cursed in a low voice. Of course he knew how powerful the protoss' technology was.
It was precisely because he understood the technology of the protoss that he felt a headache. If there were other channels to enter and exit, they would be able to relax a lot.
But if they could only enter through the main entrance, they would be greeted by fierce and terrifying photon fire.
Just like them, if they want to break out from the protoss' photon cannon, they will have to pay a huge price.
"Leave it to us!"
A Kryptonian came out, and they wanted to see what kind of power the protoss had.
As he spoke, the Kryptonian flew into the air, red beams of light burst out from his eyes, and attacked the solid wall.
The heat vision continued to burn on the wall, and the wall made of special materials could not withstand it for long.
After a while, a huge hole was burned out in the wall. As the heat vision moved, the hole gradually expanded and eventually turned into a new gate.
The changes in the wall alerted the Tal'darin protoss inside. Before Jim and others could take action, a group of black protoss rushed out.
"It's them, Tal'darin!"
Seeing those black stars, Jim said solemnly.
However, several Kryptonians carefully observed these black star spirits. This was the first time they had seen such existences without even mouths.
"How do these guys survive? Without eating?"
A Kryptonian said doubtfully. He didn't see the other person's mouth. Don't these guys eat?
Unfortunately, no one around answered his question. Everyone became nervous and stared at the black Tal'darin stars.
