StarCraft: Tyranid Empire

Chapter 78 Iron Justice (Subscribe for the third update)
The mines of Meinhof are connected by intricate underground tunnels. Rails are laid inside the tunnels, and ore and personnel are transported by magnetic levitation mine cars. Miner's lamps and air composition detection instruments are embedded on the walls of the mine pits. Ventilation pipes send outside air into In the pit.

Here, the hum of the fans is as constant as the sound of an electric drill.

At the same time as the red light of the observatory was flashing, the alarm inside the pit sounded. It was a sharp and harsh metal rubbing sound, enough to make people's skin crawl.

"Take your 'picks' and 'hoes' and gather at the foremen nearest to you. All pit supervisors, stay at your posts." A mechanical voice echoed in the pit: "The Tyranid fleet The Meinhof is approaching, but we will repel them!"

Swann wanted to get the toolbox he had brought down, but after a moment's thought he chose the lunch box, and then climbed on his digging robot with a stout step.

The density of miners in the mine is not high, and Swan has to drive the robot to the next mine to meet other miners, but thinking that this observation platform is the most valuable property of the family, Swan still decides to stay in front of the observation platform.Of course, another reason is that he really wants to know the battle situation in the synchronous orbit.

The holographic projection on the observation platform jumped again, and the green battleships representing their own battleships appeared—two Hephaestus-class Kelmorian battleships that were facing the Tyrann Federation behemoth-class battlecruisers.

This [-]-foot-long giant warship was designed and manufactured after the Federation's warships, so it was very similar in shape design and bridge position.The biggest difference is that there are more electromagnetic gun turrets, more laser gun groups, and more missile and space torpedo launch bays. Some warships will also be equipped with electromagnetic interference weapons.

But like other Kel-Morian weapons and warships, Kel-Morian warships can also see the traces of stitching, and the armor material and level also vary.

In Swan's eyes, he even felt that these warships were directly refitted with the Colossus-class transport ships of the Kailanis Transport Guild in the dock of Starport, but this did not prevent him from being proud of these warships.

You can't see the real scene of the fleet battle on the old observation platform, but Swan can imagine that scene, the battleship opens the dock, and the Cerberus and Sky Wolves swarm out. Their opponent is the Tyranid Avenger And the latest wraith fighter.

The battleships fired at each other, and the deep space was lit up with orange laser beams and missile explosions.

Like the rest of his family, Swann was quick-tempered.Swan didn't have much patience for anything other than machinery and technology. He was worrying about his own fleet, and his inner irritability and worry were completely reflected in his hands that had nowhere to rest.

Kel Morian's fleet is at a great disadvantage, while the Tyranid Federation has seven Behemoths and four Leviathan battlecruisers, the enemy has an absolute advantage.

The obsolete database of the observatory can only resolve the names of its own warships and two Leviathan-class battlecruisers, and those two battlecruisers had participated in the military parade of the capital of the Tyrannian Federation more than ten years ago.

Meinhof's people never expected that the war would affect this mining planet with a population of only a few million, and Meinhof is also close enough to the parent star Moria compared to other planets in Kel-Morian.It is absolutely impossible for the fleet of the Tyrann Federation to appear in the hinterland of the Kymerian Federation territory before today.

Unless Kel-Morian is retreating, unless the fleet is no longer capable of controlling distant star systems.

Due to the strong interference, the holographic projection on the observatory appears and disappears from time to time, and is extremely unstable.The radio rang a dozen times, but Swan watched from the driver's seat of the mining robot.

The first one to be kicked out of the battlefield was the battleship of Kel Morian. After a burst of flickering garbled characters, it was broken into several pieces, and part of the wreckage was pulled towards the ground by the gravity of the planet, like an egg exploded in slow motion. Like a shell, it flew towards the edge of the observatory.

How many people will die?

Swan thought of this problem in his sadness. A capital ship usually carries [-] to [-] fleet soldiers, and although most of these people are soldiers of Morian origin, he still feels for them. sad.

Another Kelmorian battlecruiser seemed to have been damaged, and Swan knew the name of this battleship, and he was very familiar with it.It was Meinhof's star port that cast this battleship, and it was the only battleship built on this planet during the war. Most of the soldiers were directly recruited from Meinhof, including the mechanics of the Swann family. .

This battleship tried to crash into the flagship of the Tyrannian Federation Fleet out of desperation and the belief of defending its homeland to the death. This is indeed the last helpless move, but it is actually very difficult to do.This is not the sea, space is a three-dimensional battlefield.

The battleships of Ke Morian are slower than the earliest Leviathan-class battlecruisers of the Tyranid Federation. Whether it is Ke Morian or Umoyan, their battleship engines are at least one generation behind the Tyranid Federation that first entered space.

Without any miracle, the remaining ship stopped moving before approaching the enemy ship.In the holographic projection, federal fighter planes and boarding ships are surrounding this motionless giant steel ship, like mosquitoes on a dead body.

It's all over.

Meinhof does not have orbital defense platforms and anti-aircraft guns capable of shooting down enemy ships in low-Earth orbit. These two warships and their attached fleet are the only defense force of the planet in outer space.

Under Swann's sad eyes, the three Behemoth-class battlecruisers broke away from their mother fleet and accelerated towards Meinhof.Although Swan didn't know much about military and strategy, he could almost imagine what the warships would do next.

The few military fortresses on this planet will be destroyed by nuclear bombs falling from high-altitude orbits before the landing troops of the Tyrans land on the ground, and then the Tyrannian marines will land in various cities.

It would be better for the Tyranid Federation to occupy Meinhof than to destroy it completely, so they won't destroy everything.The targets of the Tyranids are the mining companies on this planet and the Ardian crystal mines piled up in the mines and ports.

As much as Swan was terrified, he also worried about his family and friends in the New Apollon community.

In the propaganda of the representatives of the union, the Tyranids are undoubtedly heinous, and they are the most greedy people in the entire Koprulu sector.The workers of the Tyrannian Federation have always been exploited and squeezed, while the interests of the working class of the Kel-Morians are protected by the union.

This is indeed the case.

In the past ten years, the mines established in the fringe world far away from Moria have been occupied by the Tyrann Federation.In recent years, the increasingly aggressive Tyranids are even preparing to encroach on the mining industry within the territory of the Kel-Morian Federation.

If the Kel-Morian Federation chooses to swallow their anger, within a few years, their sphere of influence will slowly retreat to their home planet, Moria, under the encroachment of the Tyrann Federation.

In the eyes of all Kel-Morians, the Commonwealth was forced to declare war.They are all fighting to protect unions and mining companies oppressed by the Tyranid Federation.Almost all of them are part of a union and of course they are fighting for themselves.

The three battlecruisers, the dark blue Meinhof, were getting closer, and some tiny spots of light fell from the battleships like flashing powder and fell into the planet. Soldiers' landing craft.

After updating the observatory database, Swan saw the name of one of the Union battlecruisers.

Iron justice.
