The 260th Chapter The Queen of Blades (3)
Now Ulan Star, a planet long abandoned by the protoss, has completely become a paradise for the Zergs to carnival. Countless bugs who have completely rioted due to the loss of their queen are raging on the planet. They frantically search the entire planet and attack any All creatures that are not Zerg!
Even, shortly after the Protoss and the battleship of the Federation of Heroes left the orbit of Ulan Star, a large number of Zerg biological battleships jumped here!
Countless bugs, big and small, started to land on this small planet under the orders of their leader, and continued to search for their long-lost Queen of Blades...
"Karas, I need to take those prophecy slates to Planet Zaku as soon as possible. Now there are some things here, and I need you to go back to Shakuras and help me convey them personally."
In the outer orbit of Planet Ulan, Zeratul's small space shuttle and the medium-sized patrol ship of the High Templar of Karas are flying side by side.
At this moment, in the communication between the two parties, Zeratul is making the final explanation to the high-ranking templar Karas before he is about to leave.
"Please tell me, Master Zeratul..."
It is definitely not a trivial matter that needs to be conveyed orally by himself, so Karas stood solemnly and looked at Zeratul in the communication.
"Those humans, that Federation of Heroes..."
"They captured Kerrigan, the Queen of Blades today. I think they must have some ulterior conspiracy! Or, they want to repeat the mistakes of the past and try to control the swarm again?"
"So, I hope you go back and tell Vorazun...tell her in detail everything that happened on Ulan Star today...let her be vigilant at all times, and while paying attention to the movements of the swarm, she must also Be wary of the human world..."
Those stupid countries of human beings trying to control the swarm have not happened once or twice!
Zeratul still remembers that four years ago, before the Brood Station, humans tried to control and study the swarm many times, and also created that kind of energy launcher? But what happened? They just ended up creating Kerrigan, the Queen of Blades, who was more terrifying than the Overlord for nothing!
"Principal Zeratul! Don't worry, I will definitely convey it in person!"
Karas also knew the importance of what happened today, whether it was about humans, the Queen of Blades, or the ancient prophecy tablet, so he accepted Zeratul's reasonable request with a stern expression.
"Okay...it's time to say goodbye.
I'm leaving now! "
"Time is very tight. I must go to Planet Zaku as soon as possible to let the immortal guardians unlock the secret of the prophecy! This matter is very important, so goodbye, Karas..."
After speaking, Zeratul directly closed the communication.
Then, his small protoss space shuttle changed its course, and after accelerating for a period of time, it jumped directly and completely disappeared from Karas' sight.
"Good luck, Zeratul..."
In the Koprulu sector, on a remote channel, inside the Heroes Federation heavy magic battlecruiser Führer, the Queen of Blades, Kerrigan, is currently locked up on a floor with strange patterns on it, while the top of her head and all directions are surrounded by strange energy. In the narrow prison formed by the railings.
This is a huge cabin cell, except for her who is being locked up in the middle of the cabin, there is not a single human guard in this large cabin!
Of course, as for whether there are guards on the outer hatch, Kerrigan has no way of knowing, and she is now locked in this strange prison.
"..."
What the hell is going on here?
Kerrigan, Queen of Blades, is very puzzled! Why has it been so long, and the psionic energy in her body shows no signs of recovery at all?
"hateful!!!"
After discovering that her physical strength had gradually recovered, Kerrigan tried to use her psionic energy to destroy this strange prison, and then tried to steal a human transport ship and escape.
She believed that with her ability, she would be able to come and go freely inside the human battleship!
However, what she never expected was that it had already been a day, and not only had the psionic energy in her body not recovered, but there was also some special force field that kept restricting her from absorbing the power of the outside world?
Because, she discovered an astonishing fact just now: she can no longer sense the slightest energy from the outside world!
On weekdays, the psionic energies floating in the void that can be perceived and absorbed by her at will, are now all unperceivable...
What's more terrible is that not only can she not sense the existence of psionic energy now, she can't even do the simplest function of sending a distress signal to the outside world by using the psychic link unique to the swarms. ?
In this strange prison where she was locked up, except for not hindering her recovery of physical strength, it seemed that any form of energy or external communication was cut off!
This made Kerrigan feel that she herself was shut out of a separate, airtight cosmic plane? !
"ah!!"
After trying several times, but unable to use the psionic energy she was once proud of or contact the swarm, Kerrigan became a little anxious.
Therefore, when Kerrigan was upset and impatient, he tried to use his hands to grab the railings of those energy-desolation prisons and forcibly break them apart. On the light-like desolation, a burst of strong lightning suddenly burst out and paralyzed him in an instant. tore her body and sent her flying straight away...
Boom!
After hitting the railing behind, she was shocked again, and then fell heavily on the rune floor in the middle with a groan, almost unable to get up.
"What exactly is going on……"
Kerrigan suddenly felt that all her previous plans seemed to be in vain?
When she was on Wulan Star, she was indeed captured by humans on purpose, and then took the opportunity to escape after she fully recovered, but now, how could she have imagined that it would be like this?
"Let me tell you, it's useless if you do this!"
When Kerrigan groaned in pain and was about to get up and try again, the door of the cabin where she was held was suddenly opened, and a human wearing slippers walked in with a 'click, click' little girl.
And then, the little girl, just in her pajamas, crouched in front of her, spitting the kind of sarcastic remarks that Kerrigan obviously sounded gloating about!
"The Arcatraz Prison cannot be destroyed so easily!"
Little Annie almost laughed when she saw that the female worm wanted to tear down the dimness of the cage with her bare hands.
"You may not know that in my former Flame Alliance, there was a half-demon named Yiqiu. It is said that he was imprisoned in a similar prison for ten thousand years!"
"That's 10,000 years! A whole 10,000 years!"
Fearing that the other party could not hear clearly, little Annie hurriedly gestured exaggeratedly with both hands.
Think about it, the half-demon of One Egg, how powerful is he? Anyway, Little Annie felt that she must be much stronger than this Queen of Blades here! Even he has been imprisoned for 10,000 years and there is nothing he can do about it. Is this an existence that the Queen of Blades can easily break through?
Even if the magic prison in front of him is just a normal version, it's definitely not something the other party can easily break free from!
Every time Annie thinks of the half-demon named One Egg who joined the Flame Alliance at the end, she can't help but feel deep admiration for him!
That's right, it's admiration!
Little Annie never admired anyone easily, but that one egg was definitely an exception!
Thinking of that half-demon, who had been imprisoned for 10,000 years in the green-headed elf's prison, he still hadn't gone mad, she couldn't help giving him a thumbs up! In her opinion, this is really too powerful and awesome!
And, more importantly: that one egg, after he was finally released, didn't even have the slightest idea of revenge against the society and the elves?
It's fine if you don't retaliate, but you still want to continue saving Azeroth?
For this reason, he did not hesitate to use a bottle of precious energy well water to ask the high elves to recommend them to join the Flame Alliance. Want to use the alliance's power to fight against the Burning Legion?
Every time I think of this, Annie feels that that one egg is really amazing. Maybe, when people are stupid to a certain level, they will become particularly great? If you look at it this way, then he must be a very good, very good, super nice person!
Anyway, Little Annie thinks that if it were her own person who imprisoned her like an egg, let alone 10,000 years, even if it was only one year, once she slipped out of prison, The first thing she will do is probably to set fires everywhere to vent her anger, and burn the enemy and even the entire planet of Azeroth into a sea of flames to vent her anger?
Even if she can't defeat those powerful beings, she will wreak havoc and then slip away through the portal?
Or, if there are those high-yield fusion bombs currently produced in the Federation, maybe she will leave at least half of the inventory to set off fireworks for the enemy?
That's right...
If she was replaced by herself, Annie believed, it would definitely look like this...
She herself is so self-willed, it's useless to persuade her!
"Little girl... who are you?!"
After realizing that he really had nothing to do with this strange prison that shielded all energies and signals, Kerrigan simply slumped on the ground like that, and began to look suspiciously at the squatting outside the prison in front of him. Looking at his little human girl with interest.
Kerrigan didn't recognize it. The little girl in front of her was the little ghost who released the strange scepter device in the human team yesterday and snatched her control over the swarm.
So, after seeing that no adult humans followed her into this cabin, she began to rack her brains thinking, what should she do to fool this little girl and successfully get her to let her out?
"Hello, my name is Annie! I am the head of the Federation of Heroes, and at the same time, the highest officer of this spaceship!"
"How is it? I have captured you, the queen, am I very powerful?"
While talking happily, Annie looked curiously at Kerrigan in the prison up close. This was the first time she had seen a female worm that looked so similar to a human!
What's more, what's amazing is: her pair of wings, which were cut off yesterday, have recovered again? Does it grow so fast? I don't know if the limbs are cut off, will they regenerate?
She had heard that the Queen of Blades was originally a ghost agent from the former Dominion Alliance? In a battle, after she was abandoned by others, she was trapped in the swarm of insects, and was transformed into the ghost in front of her by the insects?
From this point of view, this female worm is really a poor guy...
"Oh? Then, how about you let me out of here? My respected little Führer?"
After being stunned for a moment, Kerrigan suddenly looked at the little girl with a smile on his face, and tried his best to look harmless to humans and animals.
"Ah? Let you out? Actually, it's not impossible..."
"But...you look at my face first!"
Annie thought about it a little bit awkwardly, then bit her own finger, and finally pointed to her face, and said to the other party with a silly and cute expression.
"What does it mean?"
Kerrigan was confused by the words and actions of the other party, wondering what the hell this little girl was up to!
The opponent's thinking is jumping a little too much, right? I just wanted to trick her into letting me out, so what's the matter with her face?
"My face, does it look so easy to be deceived?"
Blinking, Annie continued to look at Kerrigan innocently and asked.
"..."
First, she stared into the little girl's eyes silently for a while, and soon, the Queen of Blades, who was proficient in biological brainwave perception and behavioral language, saw a hint of sly look from deep in the other's eyes.
Then, she understood, this is a cunning and cunning human little girl, and she is playing by herself!
"Hmph! Tell me, what do you want to get from me when you come here to see me?"
Kerrigan, who knew that she had been tricked, was straightforward, and directly propped up her body with difficulty. After she sat down on the cold ship deck, she stood outside the enchanted prison with her eyes straight, constantly Let's be the little girl leader who looks like a monkey.
"Ha! In fact, there is nothing too important, just a small thing~!"
Annie compared her little finger, indicating that it was really not a big deal.
"The thing is like this: that is... I have taken a fancy to your swarm army. From now on, you will listen to me and be my subordinate. What do you think of this suggestion?"
Hugging her little bear, although Annie's face looked a little awkward, she finally asked excitedly with anticipation.
After she subdued the bugs, and then Tosh and Nova successfully devoured and disintegrated the entire Tyrannian Empire in secret, her League of Heroes could become the largest country in the Prouker sector!
At that time, she can really beat anyone who doesn't like her? If those protoss dare not surrender, she dares to beat them! Until now, little Annie still has a heart for that mother star spirit with a big horse face!
"Oh? Of course you can!"
After hearing what the little girl outside the prison said, Kerrigan smiled lazily and said.
"Huh? Is it really possible? So straightforward? You don't even mention any conditions?!"
The other party actually agreed to his persuasion to surrender so simply, now, it was little Annie's turn to be a little restless.
The script doesn't seem to be like this. Shouldn't she justly reject herself, ridicule herself, and then abuse herself for being mean and shameless? Did she finally plead for mercy and give in to herself pitifully after giving the other party a hard lesson?
This is how it is played on TV and movies! How could she surrender so quickly? This Queen of Blades, she must be a fake!
"Of course, I agree to be your subordinate now! So, my head of state, how about...you let me out now? What do you think of this proposal?"
Now, the feng shui took turns, and it was Kerrigan's turn to tease little Anne outside the prison with a teasing tone and sneering eyes.
"Okay... then there's nothing to talk about?!"
Little Annie curled her lips feeling bored.
The conversation between smart women is crisp and neat, even if it is a big one or a small one, they can quickly get the general attitude of the other party from the words and expressions of the other party.
"That's right! From the moment you humans snatched my control over the swarm with despicable means and despicably captured me here by bullying the few, we are destined to be enemies!"
How could Kerrigan bend the knee to a human? Moreover, the other party is just a little girl? So, it is absolutely impossible for her to admit defeat, let alone surrender control of her swarm!
Besides, this universe will soon usher in its final destiny...
That powerful existence in the darkness will soon prepare to destroy everything now!
At that time, all creatures, whether they are humans, protoss, or swarms, will inevitably end up being destroyed! So, the current Kerrigan is actually not afraid of death!
For her who already knew some rough facts, if the final fate could not be changed, and she had no ability to change it, then what would be the difference between dying earlier and later?
"Forget it! I knew it, it's better to use a more straightforward method!"
Sighing, little Annie no longer had the slightest hope for her eloquence.
So after she finished speaking, she no longer cared about the curious Kerrigan in the Arcatraz, but cast a spell directly, and grabbed a transparent paper like a holographic projection from the void.
"What is this? What are you doing?!"
Kerrigan stood up suddenly, looking at the little girl and the thing in the opponent's hand with a little vigilance.
For some reason, when Kerrigan saw this piece of paper for the first time, she always felt that something terrible would happen to her soon? So, while screaming, she subconsciously took two steps back, wanting to get a little further away from the suddenly scary little girl outside.
Because, from the transparent piece of paper filled with some strange symbols or fonts, she felt a very bad breath!
It was a very, very evil and ancient smell...
"This is a soul contract, it's a very interesting thing!"
After getting out this transparent and mysterious paper, little Annie happily held it and praised Kerrigan, Queen of Blades, and began to explain excitedly:
"As long as I grab your soul and seal it firmly into this contract, from now on, you will be mine, and you won't even have the thought of resisting! How? It is Isn't it amazing?!"
Seeing the panicked look of the other party, little Annie showed a demon-like smug smile, the cracked corners of her mouth, and the little canine teeth began to protrude?
"Hmph... now you know you're afraid?"
"Don't think that I can do nothing to you because you will play tricks or something! I am very proficient in forcibly 'persuading' others to obey me!"
When encountering people who don't listen to her and are reluctant to burn them, Little Annie's most common method is to grab the other person's soul, and then forcefully pull it out to press a stamp!
In that case, everything will be solved!
In Annie's opinion, as long as it is something that can be solved by magic, she will never bother and waste too much time moving her mouth!
(…)
(On this point, Ben Xiong agrees very much... This little master of my family, since he was two years old, has been very proficient in the matter of forcing a strong man and signing a contract...
Sighing, Tibbers seemed to recall the past that he couldn't bear to look back on... Back then, she was only two years old...
It's a pity that Kerrigan, Queen of Blades, obviously couldn't hear what she said...)
"..."
Kerrigan didn't quite understand souls or contracts.
Therefore, she could only forcibly raise her spirits, and looked vigilantly at the little girl outside the prison, and the very weird piece of paper that the other party was holding?
"Come on, just slap it, it won't hurt very much, just slap it, and it will be fine soon!"
After throwing the annoying mumbling bear to the metal deck next to her, Anne grabbed the soul contract with her left hand, and turned her right hand towards the prison. past.
She was about to cast a spell, as long as she pulled out the other party's soul temporarily from his body, stamped it quickly and stuffed it back, it should...maybe...presumably it wouldn't be very painful, right?
Anyway, the time is very short, the other party closed their eyes and endured it, and it passed!
"What do you want to do?!"
Kerrigan took another two steps back, and when the pair of bone wings behind her touched the railing of the Arcatraz and was burned, she stopped and looked at it with slightly frightened eyes. In front of him was the little girl who stretched out her hand.
She has never felt so uneasy and scared like now... Moreover, the object is a little human girl...
"Huh?"
While Kerrigan was keeping vigilant, the little girl outside suddenly stopped and let out a cry of surprise.
"Can't catch it? Then try this..."
I cast a spell secretly just now, but I didn't expect that I couldn't catch the soul of the Queen of Blades?
This really surprised Annie, this was the first time this kind of thing happened! This Kerrigan's soul wave doesn't look very powerful, how can it resist his own spellcasting?
So, after she was surprised, she began to pay a little more attention to it.
This time, she intends to cast spells in a regular manner, to increase the tearing power of the soul, and must forcibly pull out the opponent's soul from the opponent's body!
"Stop! What are you doing?!"
When the little girl narrowed her eyes slightly, a strange white magic circle formed in the palm of her hand and lit up, Kerrigan suddenly felt a strong attraction, as if something was being pulled from her body by the other party's palm. suck it out? !
"ah!!!"
Then, while she was trying her best to resist, the attraction became stronger and stronger...
After resisting for a while, she, who was still in a semi-weak state, was sucked to the railing of the Arcatraz by the powerful suction force, and her body was burned by the powerful lightning force above the railing. , the double pain of body and soul was tormenting her, making Kerrigan scream loudly.
She felt that her body was about to be torn apart?
Boom...
"Ha... ho..."
Suddenly, the little girl gave up the action, causing Kerrigan to be bounced back by the lightning on the railing due to the loss of the huge suction force, and fell hard again on the icy deck.
"What exactly do you want to do?!"
After gasping for breath twice, Kerrigan angrily confronted the little girl.
The kind of pain that tore her soul and tortured her body with lightning from the railing just now caused her serious injuries.
"Strange... how could it be impossible to pull out the soul?!"
Annie didn't care about the Queen of Blades' questioning, but scratched her head curiously.
She didn't understand why the trick that had been tried and tested before suddenly lost its effect at this moment? !
"Huh? So that's it... who is it!?"
Suddenly, Annie stretched out her hand and grabbed her little bear from a distance. In the palm of her right hand, she grabbed a flaming fireball at the same time. She looked towards Kerrigan with a sharp expression, like a bear that was angry. Like a small tiger, it will launch a fatal blow to the enemy at any time.
Now, she finally knows why something is wrong!
It turns out that the reason why she couldn't catch Kerrigan's soul twice just now is definitely not because of the strength of the other party's soul or the strong will to resist, but because of some powerful existence that has been secretly protecting her?
If Annie hadn't been paying attention to her observations just now, she would have almost been concealed from her perception by the other party!
This is interesting, what kind of existence is going to protect this female bug in secret? !
What is this Kerrigan coming from?
Moreover, didn't the intelligence say that the other party was originally an ordinary ghost agent of the empire, and was captured and transformed by the swarm after being framed and abandoned. How could there be a powerful existence secretly protecting and paying attention?
"Hey! This is going to be fun!"
"I'm warning you, come out quickly! Otherwise, I'll burn this female bug right away, don't think I'm afraid!"
While staring at Kerrigan, who was panting in the cage, Annie increased the magic power of the fireball in her palm. If the opponent dared to hide again, she would directly hit him hard and burn the opponent's desire. Protect this female bug!
"Don't think it's so great that you put a soul protection on her! I have a hundred ways to forcefully break it!"
Who is Annie? She is a powerful, well-informed super mage! How could there be no way to use such a hidden trick? That doesn't exist!
"What the hell are you talking about?"
Seeing the terrifying fireball held by the little girl outside, Kerrigan could only lie on the ground weakly and asked angrily.
Why can't she understand a word the other party said? This little girl was obviously looking at her, but who was she really talking to? !
"..."
The next moment, a shady scene swept across Kerrigan's body, and then, under Kerrigan's horrified and puzzled eyes, the little girl outside was swallowed up by the shady scene and disappeared?
This, this, this... What the hell is going on here?
