2122. Mothership Battle (Part 2)

Regarding Khalai Protoss, post a piece of the original text for you to taste. I have been a fan of StarCraft for more than 20 years, so I generally can't get this thing wrong.

The Khalai (not to be confused with the Khalai Caste) are protoss which followed the Khala. They are alternatively referred to as "Aiur protoss" or "Templar"(not to be confused with the Templar Caste), as a means of distinguishing them from other kindreds.

The Khala brought the protoss out of the Aeon of Strife and in time led to the foundation of the Protoss Empire. While the Dark Templar refused to submit to the Khala and were banished from Aiur as a result, the Khalai nevertheless remained united and at relative peace——

At this moment, Glory mothership is already caught in the flames of war.

More than 100,000 combat robots began to gather from various places and attacked towards the bridge.

In the huge rail elevator and in the wide passage, densely packed battle robots lined up in a square array and moved toward their destination, moving in uniform order, and the clicking footsteps were deafening.

But then, a rocket flew from deep in the street, with a huge explosion, and more than ten robots were immediately blown to pieces!

Immediately afterwards, more dense rockets, laser rays and bullets poured in, and the battle robot's position was suddenly engulfed in explosions and flames!

It's the mothership's defense force!

On the position, a large number of defense force soldiers wore CMC-300 power armor, which made them 2.1 meters tall, and held C-14 Gauss rifles specially built for power armor. This 8mm large-caliber Gauss rifle uses a combination of electromagnetic and gunpowder firing, and is very powerful.

The dense bullets instantly tore the body of the combat robot apart. If it were a B-1 combat robot, it would be broken into pieces on the ground if it was hit by an 8 mm caliber depleted uranium bullet.

Behind the positions constructed by these defense forces, Commander Li Bo looked forward with a determined face, raised his wrist and looked at the battlefield situation map on Omni-tool, and said, "Keep the fire blockade! Send a reconnaissance company to bypass the D-7 cabin to ensure that those heavy robot units will not come."

"Yes!" An officer stood at attention and saluted, and then began to deploy the reconnaissance company.

"Sir, a large number of Destroyer droid appeared in the direction of Elevator No. 13. Our Guardian troops cannot penetrate their shields and need stronger firepower." An officer came over from the side and reported.

Li Bo immediately replied, "Let them hold on at all costs! Elevator No. 13 must not be lost! The master's actions must not be disturbed! I will mobilize a War Wolf Mech team as soon as possible for reinforcements!"

"Yes!"

These soldiers, including Commander Li Bo, all have high morale and are willing to sacrifice their lives for their master. They are all well-equipped, not only with CMC-300 power armor, but also heavy equipment such as War Wolf Mech and Goliath Mech.

In contrast, although the number of those combat robots reaches 150,000, most of them are still the previous combat units of Confederacy of Independent Systems. Except for conventional combat units such as B-1 combat robots, B-2 super combat robots, Destroyer droid, and DW-1 Dwarf spider droid robots, there are very few heavy-duty units.

In fact, Duchy of Dawn has never developed much for the combat robot army, so the set of Confederacy of Independent Systems is still used until now. The reason why they are still in use is mainly because Trade Federation and InterGalactic Banking Clan have too many combat robot troops retained. It would be a pity to destroy them. They are good for being used as cannon fodder or maintaining law and order.

So the battle taking place now in Glory mothership is equivalent to a battle between the most elite and advanced army troops and the outdated combat robot troops.

The result was naturally a one-sided massacre.

The combat robot troops continued to attack, but they only left more and more wreckage in front of the defensive troops' positions, but they were still unable to shake their defense line.

But at this time, Rakghoul also arrived on the battlefield. These ferocious-looking monsters howled and launched an attack. They picked up the E-5 Blaster rifle dropped by the combat robots from the ground, shot wildly at the front position, and rushed forward quickly.

The movement capabilities of these Rakghoul are far greater than those of combat robots. They can jump, move around, and even crawl on walls and ceilings, making them even more difficult to hit. And what's even more troublesome is that they really know how to use weapons!

This greatly increased the pressure on the defensive troops' positions!

"Sir! Those monsters have broken through our first line of defense!" An officer came over and said.

"You must resist! Don't let the master's plan be interrupted!" Li Bo said decisively.

"Do Company One and the Second Company need to be dispatched?" the officer asked.

Li Bo smiled, "No! Company One and Erlian are our biggest trump cards, we must save them until the end!"

At the same time, Fenix, Priestess and Judgment, who were watching the battle through the surveillance system, also felt that it was very difficult. The combat effectiveness of those defense forces is too strong. They guard each passage and the combat robots cannot attack them at all.

After all, no matter how big the mothership is, it is just a spaceship. There is absolutely no open terrain where more than 100,000 combat robots can deploy. Fighting in the passage that was only a few dozen meters wide at its widest, the combat robots were of no use against the defense forces armed to the teeth.

"These people are stalling for time!" Fenix said in a deep voice, "Olegar is planning something, and it's definitely not a good thing!"

"They seem to have normal IQs." Priestess looked at the surveillance screen and said with a frown.

"Of course it is normal. This is completely different from the twisted mind control of Grysk. Although the method used by Protoss can only control one by one, the degree of control is far beyond what they can compare with." Fenix said, "But such use of Psionics is strictly prohibited. Only criminals like Olegar would use it in this way."

They were moving along a maintenance channel at the moment. This maintenance channel was very narrow, only one meter wide, and Fenix could only pass sideways with great difficulty.

At this moment, a sudden change occurred!

The air inside the entire mothership seemed to be shaking! Buzz! Everyone present only felt a roar in their heads!

When Priestess opened her eyes again, she was extremely horrified to find that everything around her had turned purple!

It's as if there is a purple light shining everywhere, and everywhere you look is not only purple, but also purple!

"It's Olegar!" Fenix said loudly, "He is twisting Psionics!"

"Twisted Psionics?" Priestess asked, "Where is Psionics twisted? I didn't feel anything abnormal in world of the Force. The abnormality was only within the scope of the mothership."

Fenix thought for a while and said, "Kyber Crystal. After coming to this world, we Protoss used Kyber Crystal as a replacement for Kylin Crystal! This is definitely what Olegar is doing!"

Priestess nodded and said, "Then, I know where he is."
