2150, Olegar VSDream
"Master, we found a city on this planet." The operator turned back and said to Olegar.
Olegar no longer cares about the opinions of these people, but he looked at the sensor screen and asked, "The information above means that our spacecraft can also detect those so-called defenders?"
He is not familiar with Duchy of Dawn's current spacecraft operation interface, but he can still tell something about it by looking at the graphics.
"Yes, Master. They did not respond to the detectors we launched. We are really lucky. According to the scan results, this is the only large city on the planet." The operator clicked on a place on the screen. "The name on the navigation data is... Pelek-Baw City, which is where the outsiders on this planet live concentratedly."
"Let's go there and have a look. Arrange a shuttle." Olegar said, turned and walked towards the back.
After becoming Dark Archon, his senses are completely different from ordinary people, or ordinary Protoss. He does not rely on his eyes to see. In his vision, he only sees the endless Void Energy.
Therefore, in his opinion, there are no defenders here, and he does not feel the majestic vitality that a city should have. There is only a void here, and even the entire planet is in the energy of that void, which is simply scary.
Yes, even Olegar is scared.
However, he also believed that such power was more likely to be formed naturally by the planet without self-awareness, so he thought he might be able to find the secret of the planet here.
As for the illusions of the defenders and cities, Olegar believes that they are more likely to be scenes that once existed, projected by the planet.
He had already felt the call of this planet when he was still in the hyperspace channel. That's why he ordered to interrupt the hyperspace voyage and come here to respond to the voice coming from the depths of the void.
A shuttle took off from the narrow Hangar Platform Revenge-class destroyer and flew towards the only city on Haruun Kal - Pelek-Baw City.
"This is shuttle number OX-M192, requesting to land." The pilot said to the communicator that had nothing but rustling. After a moment, he smiled and replied, "Okay, berth G-7, I saw it. Thank you."
The shuttle landed in a burnt open space. Four Dark Templar stepped off the spacecraft first and were on alert. One of them even pushed into the air. In his opinion, he pushed away a pedestrian who was walking around.
They knew something was wrong here, but they didn't know what was wrong.
The pilot and several other crew members who came with him behaved very naturally. They looked around and said, "Haruun Kal didn't expect it to be rebuilt so quickly? I remember that during the Clone Wars period, this planet was destroyed by war."
"Actually, it's not a big problem if you think about it, because the official report at the time stated that 110,000 civilians died in the war. Galactic Empire must have moved a new batch of immigrants from other places." Another crew member said.
Another crew member walked over and asked in the air, "Excuse me, where is the nearest bar here?" This is simply common sense for Explorer people. When going to a place, go to the bar first, have a drink and inquire about the local customs. For a small tip, the knowledgeable bartenders are always willing to talk to you.
After receiving the answer, the crew member led the way and led the group towards the city's business district.
From the perspective of the four Dark Templar and several crew members, they were currently in a small but very prosperous city. This city is built with an exotic feel, because Haruun Kal is rich in various trees, and metal products will be corroded by fungi in the air if left here for a long time, so most of the structures in the entire city are made of wood.
And these woods are very strong, some varieties are even harder than steel.
People live and trade here. Along the way, you can see at least a dozen different races. They dress up differently, but they are all looking for opportunities to make money on this planet.
In addition to the most famous Thyssel tree bark, there are many other products on Haruun Kal. And because the planet's environment is harsh, all low-lying areas are covered in toxic miasma, which can even corrode metal, so it is very difficult to obtain these products. Of course, if these things were sent to the galaxy Core Worlds, the nobles and wealthy families would be willing to spend a lot of money to buy them.
The people who can come to Haruun Kal to make a living are all fierce people, so the people seen on the street are all well-armed and tall. There were even a few people fighting in the distance, and many people gathered around to watch the fun.
But those indifferent security personnel paid no attention to such fights.
Several crew members have completely integrated into this city. They greet the people around them, chat with them, obtain as much information as possible here, and then report it to their master Olegar.
The four Dark Templar are always on guard. They have shown the light blades on their wrists and are looking around vigilantly.
But from Olegar's point of view, here is a different scene!
There was a charred blackness everywhere, as if the place had been burned by a fire. There were also the remains of some buildings around, and because they were wooden structures, the remains had been burnt to charcoal, and the dark stone frame columns were still strong.
Shale The rugged roads were littered with the remains of vehicles and even tanks, all of which were blackened by fire without exception. Even among the debris of the nearby building, the remains of several quadruple anti-air blasters can be seen, and there are many dark skeletons around.
This city has long been destroyed.
Maybe the people in the city persisted in resisting until the end, or maybe even at the last second they still controlled the pair of air blaster cannons and fired wildly at the sky. But in the end, it still couldn't withstand the coming of death.
These meager blasting anti-aircraft guns and meager anti-aircraft missiles are nothing to mention for the capital ships parked in outer orbit.
A crew member was standing in front talking to the invisible air, praising the other party's modified sniper rifle as a really good guy. However, under his feet, there was only a blackened skeleton and a large gun twisted and melted beside the skeleton.
Although he is not familiar with the technology of this world, Olegar is also experienced and understands that this is the result of Orbital Bombardment. And it is a bombing with reduced power, so that it can kill everyone in the city through high temperature without damaging the environment as much as possible.
"This planet has been destroyed." Olegar said in a deep voice, "The defenders you see in outer space may be the Guardian troops of this planet. And that fleet, like this city, has been destroyed. But both the city and the fleet have reappeared under the powerful Void Energy of this planet. This... is the memory of the planet."
"This prosperous city is actually a ruin?" asked a Dark Templar.
"We are very close there. I can feel that there is a strong Void link there." Olegar raised his finger and pointed forward.
"Ah, that's right! That's the tavern they introduced to us!" said a crew member.
Olegar ignored the crew members who had been completely confused by the illusion, and floated over to the wreckage of a building.
With a very tacit understanding, four Dark Templar immediately came to guard around him, and Olegar raised a finger, only to see a purple flame begin to condense on his finger, and then shrunk to a very small ball.
Then, Olegar tapped the building lightly...
Everything around him shattered into pieces like broken glass, whether it was a prosperous city or a ruined city, they were all wiped out with these broken pieces.
Now, Olegar and the others discovered that they were actually in a jungle!
"Welcome here, to the world of dreams - Haruun Kal." A disembodied voice came, which sounded like a young female voice, calm and peaceful.
"Hahahaha! You can actually detect the existence of the third illusion. It's really amazing!" Another ethereal laughter appeared, equally young, lively and out-of-the-box.
"Who are you?" Olegar asked in a deep voice.
"Before that, shouldn't you introduce yourself? Protoss." The quiet girl asked.
"You actually know about the existence of Protoss? Are you from Dawn Star Planet?" The powerful Psionics around Olegar's body began to vibrate.
Although he had just arrived, he still got a lot of information on the mothership. For example, he knew very well that except for a few people, the existence of Protoss was a secret. Including Galactic Empire, they only knew that there was such a mysterious race, but they did not know the detailed information about this race.
Some the Empire intelligence officers even believe that Protoss is a subspecies of Salarian because the skins of the two are somewhat similar.
The person who can clearly explain the title Protoss can only be a person from Dawn Star Planet, and his status is definitely not low.
"You can think so." The calm girl replied, "Haruun Kal felt your presence, so it called you. And we are waiting here."
"This planet does have its own the Will!" Olegar said, "Tell me, where is the core of this planet?"
"Your greed is even written on your face. Do you want to control Haruun Kal's dream?" The calm girl's tone became cold.
"Why not?" Olegar asked.
"You will be addicted to the dream and merge with Haruun Kal's dream. We don't want this." The girl said.
"It's this planet that's calling me, not you." Olegar is already getting ready to fight.
"We... are sleeping beside Haruun Kal. We... are the guardians of dreams. We... have something to ask you to do," the girl said.
"Don't play tricks with me! You have no qualifications! Tell me where the core of this planet is, or I will find it myself! Then, I will help you, maybe." Olegar mocked.
"Then we can only change the way." The girl said coldly.
"You're just an ant!" Olegar was already impatient and raised his hand to blast a powerful energy attack! The tree that was hit was immediately blown up into a large area!
However, it seemed that it did not hit the target, and only saw a sudden golden light in the depths of the jungle!
Seeing this scene, Olegar's eyes suddenly narrowed. This golden light reminded him of something very bad.
Sure enough, with only a ray of light visible, dozens of Protoss warrior wearing golden armor rushed out! It's Zealot warrior from Protoss! Not only that, behind these Zealot warrior, there are several other figures floating, with lighter gold armor, exaggerated shoulder ornaments, and blue cloaks - it is High Templar!
However, in the eyes of Olegar, these Protoss have another meaning - Khalai Protoss!
The surrounding jungle disappeared and was replaced by a simple village, which was the settlement of Nerazim! I could only see that the village was burning, and Blitz kept falling in the sky. It seemed that even Olegar's soul was hearing death wails!
Endless hatred and endless anger emerged from Olegar's heart, "How dare you do this! How dare you do this!!"
He has always been the only one who plays with other people's minds and controls other people's souls. But now, they have obviously read his memory and the lingering nightmare deep in his heart!
The brutal massacre and expulsion of Nerazim by Khalai Protoss for thousands of years!
During the period when Olegar became Wisdom Guardian from Nerazim, he was eroded by countless miserable memories. Countless pain and countless hatred were intertwined together, creating nightmare-like scenes. These scenes may not have actually appeared, but they are scary enough, sad enough, and painful enough!
This has also been a nightmare that has been tormenting him for a long time.
"You! How dare you do this!!!" Olegar's anger could not be increased, and you dared to show the most painful memories in front of him and play with them at will!
Must die! Must die!! Even if the entire planet is buried with him, he won't hesitate!
"Death!!!" Olegar roared, and the blood-red flames suddenly spread like real substance, carrying terrifying energy! Everything around him was shattered by this powerful energy!
The few crew members they brought were instantly turned into ashes under such an impact, and not even their bodies were left. Those Khalai Protoss phantoms also fell to the ground wailing, but then, their appearance all changed into Nerazim! He fell to the ground bruised and struggling in pain.
"You! You are here! You are seeking death!!!" Olegar roared angrily, and countless angry purple flames fell from the sky, like giant cannons that destroyed the world, blowing up the surroundings into a mess!
At the same time, four Dark Templar also rushed forward waving their light blades!
