1982. Message from Grysk Hegemony
"What happened? Our capital was attacked?!" Nuruodo family was shocked. High Templar Rassidan's Psionics navigation was so efficient that he had no time to get in touch with the capital.
However, what was displayed in front of him now was a battle taking place in the capital of Chiss territory!
Although there are only a dozen small spaceships wreaking havoc, most of them are civilian spaceships, the meaning of this is terrifying.
It takes a week to go from the Star Gate to the outside world, and the round trip takes two weeks. Counting the stay in Dawn Star Planet for a little more than a week, it takes less than a month to fully calculate. The capital of Chiss territory was attacked!!
"Damn it!! Take off our fighter jets quickly! Shoot down those spaceships!" Csapla family shouted in desperation.
"Please be patient." Rassidan's calm voice sounded in everyone's mind, "These spaceships cannot pose a real threat. We have just arrived here and the situation is unknown. Just leave it to the defense forces to solve it."
Nuruodo family nodded. In fact, there is really no need to worry about the current situation. Because even the huge super aircraft carrier Eternal is here, and there are only a dozen civilian spacecraft, and I am afraid that even the shield of Eternal cannot be touched.
After all, he is a family in charge of the military. He took no time to get Duchy of Dawn to agree to send fleet reinforcements, and also introduced the mysterious, powerful, and elegant race-Protoss to Chiss Dominion Supreme Cabinet.
At this time, more than ten spacecraft had been completely eliminated, and three of them were caught by Eternal's tractor beam and were completely unable to move. Then powerful electronic interference and viruses were directly input into the three spacecraft at close range. In just one minute, these three spacecraft were completely taken over by Eternal.
Whether it is Chiss's defense force or Eternal's captain Lieutenant General Brent, they all understand that in such a situation, the best choice is to capture those alive.
Rassidan didn't delay at all, and immediately took the shuttle to Eternal Super Carrier with Nuruodo family and others.
Upon learning that Protoss was coming, Second Exploration Fleet Commander Lieutenant General Brent and deputy captain Commander Kace-T-Maxwell came to greet Hangar Platform.
Chiss Defense Fleet Admiral of the Navy Eliz Al-Alani-Ziyala, who received the news at the same time, also quickly took the shuttle to the Eternal bridge. Although Admiral Qiyala didn't know what Protoss was, from the information she received from the delegation, she also knew that this was an extraordinary race and must be treated with the highest courtesy.
Admiral Qiyala already knew that she would be appointed as the chief Commander of the Chiss territory-Duchy of Dawn combined fleet, so she had to come in person as soon as possible to welcome Protoss High Templar.
"Hahahaha! When the situation is so critical, High Templar of Protoss suddenly appears. There is nothing better than this." Lieutenant General Brent laughed and stood at attention, showing the greatest respect for Protoss, "Welcome, respected Protoss."
Although Ziyala is Admiral of the Navy, he also stood at attention and saluted meticulously, and said solemnly, "I am Chiss Defense Fleet Admiral Ziyala. It is an honor to fight alongside you, warrior of Protoss."
On the other side, Kace-Maxwell did not neglect either. Although he was an explorer at heart, he still stood at attention and saluted because of his military duties.
And whether in Protoss's tribe or in Duchy of Dawn's entire territory, High Templar is a very respected existence, and they are qualified to directly meet Grand Duke of Dawn Tang Xiao's power without notification.
In addition, High Templar, who is currently awakened by Protoss, although their tempers and styles are different, each of them is an upright person of noble character, which makes Duchy of Dawn those who are lucky enough to meet High Templar full of respect for them.
"I have heard about Grysk Hegemony, and that is why I am here. I will not interfere in the command of the fleet, and I will concentrate on dealing with Grysk's mind control." Rassidan said, "However, I still suggest that when the fleet is dispatched, Commander should always be by my side, which will be protected by me. Other warships need to be completely controlled by robots."
"I will implement this matter immediately." Ziyala said.
"Maybe we need to go and see the prisoners, and I will identify the conditions of the drivers." Rassidan said.
"Those three spaceships have been pulled in by the tractor beam, and they are just over there in the hangar." Lieutenant General Brent pointed to the other end, and at the same time he waved his hand, and someone immediately drove over to several Warthog off-road vehicle, "It's nearly a kilometer away from there, let's go there by car."
Ziyala They were not polite and got on the bus one after another, but Rassidan had no intention of getting on the bus, and the ten Protoss Zealot warrior who followed him did not get on the bus either. Only four Protoss researchers got on a Warthog off-road vehicle.
"Hahaha, let's go. Protoss generally doesn't like our human mechanical vehicles unless it is absolutely necessary." Lieutenant General Brent nodded apologetically to Rassidan, "But I'm sorry, we are really unprepared. Because we didn't expect Protoss to come here."
"It doesn't matter, let's go." Rassidan nodded.
Warthog started immediately and drove towards the other side of Hangar Platform.
In the horrified eyes of Ziyala and others, they only saw the ten Protoss Zealot warrior running straight away. Their running speed actually kept up with Warthog, who was now traveling at a full speed of 60 kilometers per hour!
And even more terrifying is Rassidan! Originally, he was always floating in the air, and keeping himself in a half-dimensional state had already frightened Chiss. Now Rassidan actually maintains the posture of floating in the air, but the forward speed is very fast, also maintaining a speed of 60 kilometers per hour!
Moreover, Rassidan always maintained a standing posture. At such a speed, the blue cloak behind him was not even blown up by the wind! This can only show one possibility - the state that High Templar is in, half in material space and half in high-dimensional space, can truly ignore certain physical laws!
As a soldier's judgment, Admiral Qiyala immediately judged that if this Protoss was willing, he might be able to kill one of the Mariness in his Chiss defense force without getting hurt!
Arriving at the other end of Hangar Platform, three civilian spaceships were parked quietly on the ground. All electronic systems of the spacecraft were shut down. Hundreds of Duchy of Dawn Navy Marines had already surrounded the three spacecrafts.
"Open the door and be alert!" Lieutenant General Brent issued the order.
The hatches of the three spaceships slowly opened, and at the same time, all Marines also raised their weapons, aiming their guns at the hatch position.
However, something strange happened. The people inside the spacecraft did not immediately rush out to open fire and resist, nor did they find a place to hide. They just stood quietly at the door of the cabin, and each of them held a knife in their hand.
These are all Chiss, and judging by their attire, they are all passengers and pilots of the spaceship, but at this moment they are all standing there uniformly, expressionless. But their eyes were not dull. They looked at Chiss in front of them as if they were looking at prey.
"We are Grysk Hegemony." These people spoke in unison, "You seem to have not learned the lesson from the little fights before. So today, this message will be conveyed to you more clearly."
These people all showed strange smiles, and then continued to speak in unison, "You have been under our surveillance, Chiss, and... Duchy of Dawn. We know everything about you, including the star gate built at Masos Planet. But you know nothing about us."
"Grysk Hegemony requires you to immediately lay down your weapons and surrender, compensate us for our losses, and share the passage to the star gate. And we will mercifully let you live. Otherwise, you will suffer our most brutal revenge. Hehehehehe..." Everyone burst into inexplicable laughter. This scene was terrifying.
"Don't think that the Stargate and the fleet can solve all problems. What happened today is to tell you... Grysk Hegemony is invincible! Hehehehehe..." These people said with ferocious expressions on their faces and weird laughter in their mouths.
Then, they suddenly raised their hands and cut their own necks with the knife in their hands without hesitation!
However, the next second, a Blitz suddenly flashed across! The knives in these people's hands were immediately attracted to Blitz, and they broke free from their grasp and flew directly in front of Rassidan. Then these people rolled their eyes and fainted.
Clang, clang, clang, clang, dozens of table knives fell to the ground, making a crisp sound.
Things happened so fast that it was over before almost everyone realized what happened.
"This... they..." Nuruodo family pointed at the dozens of people who fainted, and for a moment he didn't even know what to say.
"They are indeed being controlled, and just now, I cut off this control. Now, they are no longer controlled by Grysk." Rassidan's voice sounded in everyone's minds.
Admiral Qiyala frowned and asked, "Then do you have any clues about your control over them?"
"Powerful, but barbaric." Rassidan said, "And this is not completely direct control. The memories, minds, and even souls of these people have traces of forcible tampering and distortion. Grysk does not rely on strong power to directly control these people. Their method is more cruel, but more labor-saving."
"Then will these people have any sequelae?" Lieutenant General Brent asked.
"I cut off their connection with the controller, but their twisted souls have still not recovered. I'm sorry that I can't cure this yet. Maybe when we can learn more about Grysk, we can find a way to restore these people to their original state." Rassidan said.
As he spoke, he waved his hand again, only to see one of the people's body twitch and wake up.
However, when he saw the situation around him clearly, he immediately held his head and screamed, "You! What have you done!! I can't hear the master's voice!! What have you done!!"
"Calm down! We are here to help you!" Admiral Qiyala stepped forward and shouted.
"No!! My master!! Give me back the master!!!" That person was extremely crazy, with no possibility of communication at all, and even lost the ability to think, as if the 'master' was everything to them.
"It doesn't seem possible... let's lock them up first." Admiral Qiyala waved his hand.
"I will study their status and leave the battle to you." Rassidan nodded.
Nuruodo family came to Admiral Qiyala at this time and asked coldly, "What happened when we left?!"
The relationship between Illyz family and Nuruodo family was not good, so Admiral Qiyala's tone was equally cold. She simply said, "Our outer colonies were attacked by Grysk Hegemony, but the losses were not significant. What attacked was not their main fleet."
She turned her head and added coldly, "The war has already begun."
Nuruodo family raised his head and said, "We have received enough assistance from Duchy of Dawn, and the fleet now in your hands is unprecedentedly powerful. And with the help of the respected Protoss High Templar, I have only one request for this war - victory!"
"What's the price of victory?" Admiral Qiyala asked coldly.
"There is no price, only a broader prospect." Nuruodo family said.
"I hope so." Ziyala dropped these words and turned to leave.
The group of them also parted ways, and Nuruodo family and Csapla family took the delegation back to the cabinet to report on this visit. They will also discuss Chiss territory's future military, diplomatic, and political trends.
Rassidan seemed completely uninterested in their political matters. He asked Zealot warrior to take the controlled people and prepare to leave here and go to the flagship of this battle. Due to its special nature, Eternal Super Carrier was considered unsuitable to participate in this war with Grysk Hegemony, so he would stay in the rear to defend.
Admiral Qiyala returned to the command center with Lieutenant General Brent, and they will discuss and formulate a plan for this war.
Before the delegation set off, Chiss territory had already declared martial law and sealed the borders of its outer colonies, prohibiting all spacecraft from entering.
But even so, the border was still attacked.
Just like what Grysk Hegemony showed before, their fleet was elusive and there was no clear direction at all. Chiss territory's outer colonies in several different directions were attacked, so they had to allocate a large number of troops to defend their borders.
