41: The Swarm Invades Marsala
Although he noticed a large number of alien insect reactions, Mixing did not act without action under Mishan's order and continued to maintain the hidden state of the entire fleet.
There was no discovery of the fleet and the army of alien insects in the solar system, and rushed towards the Mar Sara colony.
Compared with the hidden human-League Fleet, the Rangers who began to smash the sporangia onto the surface of the planet and collected the spoils to flash the enemy did not notice these alien insects.
Jim Renault, the Ranger commander, immediately turned his questioning eyes to his good brother Tekes:
"I knew! Tekes, there's never a good thing to follow you."
"Hi, man, what does this have to do with me?" Tekes spread his hands and said innocently: "I was still helping you sit in the room when there was a worm storm outside."
"..." Jim Renault stared at Tekes very seriously. After finding that the other party was indeed not lying, he turned his eyes to Mi Shan who was packing up his things.
Mi Shan, who noticed Jim Renault's eyes, smiled and said, "Some things will attract humans, alien insects, and also attract the astral spirits."
"It's just that humans and the Protoss will trade with you, but the alien insects won't."
"...Why do you speak so much like a star spirit?" Jim Renault said without breathing a sigh of relief by Mi Shan's words.
"It's probably near Zhuzhe Chi, Tasada and I are old friends." Mi Shan said with a smile.
"It's strange why Tasada never mentioned you to me..." Jim Renault shook his head and said.
"Man, I don't think it's time to talk about this. Let's escape before we get overwhelmed by bugs." Tekes pushed Jim Renault with his arm and said, "I looked at their transport plane, and it's just enough to install what kind of magic we have."
Tekes's words made Greenhill's brow raise slightly. When did this guy approach the transport plane?
"No, we can't leave everyone else behind." Jim Renault shook his head and said, "If they want to join the Rangers, I can't abandon them."
Jim Renault said "they" refers to the local residents of Ma Sara who defected to the Rangers after destroying the "backwater base".
"So, our messenger of justice, Sheriff Jim Renault, why are you planning not to abandon them? Let them drive their cars to the universe?" Tykes said with a headache.
"I've contacted the transport, and they'll arrive soon, never late, we just need to stick to it until they come over," Jim Renault said.
"You actually have one move?" Tekes said with a smile after being stunned for a moment.
"I have always been prepared, Tekes, you don't know." Jim Renault said.
In addition to being confident, Jim Renault, who also has a good set of military formations, quickly set up a defensive formation like an iron barrel with the temporary base where Sarnaga was placed as the center.
Because the Imperial Army destroyed a large amount of baggage after the fall of the stagnant base... this was to prevent the equipment of the colonial garrison from falling into the hands of the rebels.
There are few heavy weapons that Jim Renault can use, such as impact tanks.
But relying on the combination of bunkers and rocket towers alone set up a very solid line of defense.
The three game characters under Mi Shan’s command commented on this line of defense:
Baiji: Half an hour, Greenhill: Forty minutes, Shepard: Thirty minutes to two hours.
"Are you sure you only need to defend for thirty minutes? Instead of planning to fight a protracted battle with these bugs?" asked Tekes, who was also shocked by Jim Renault's move.
"You have never seen alien insects, and you will never know how terrible they are." Jim Renault, who forcibly pretended not to hear Mishan's comments, said: "I don't know how many warriors will sacrifice in order to fight for these thirty minutes."
"This is their own choice, man." said Tekes, who saw Jim Renault becoming kind again.
"I know, you don't need to remind me. If I were not clear about the words of Ci Bu's command, I would have died long ago, Tekes." Jim Reno looked at Ma Run, who was lined up into the bunker and said, "It's a pity that she is gone...ah."
"She? That ghost in the photo?" Tykes asked suddenly with interest.
"No, another one, a partner who has been with me for a long time." Jim Reno said: "But she finally chose Monsk..."
Jim Renault and Tekes' words came to Mishan and his group's ears, and Greenhill said in secret: "Is it her? Sir?"
"Well, it should be her. The end of the battle between the original human race was the time when Kerrigan was caught by the insects. It should have parted ways with Jim Renault after that time."
In fact, from the last battle of the mother nest mentioned by Mi Chong Chong, facing the information of the two human commanders at the same time, Mi Shan already knew that the real human commander must have not left with the Rangers, but joined Monsk.
Mi Shan did not intend to evaluate whether the character who died in the last battle of the mother's nest was right or wrong. The road was all made by people. At worst, they could just complain after being resurrected.
...Maybe it is because of identity? Unlike Jim Renault, the thief who became a thief, the human commander of Interstellar 1 is set as a federal judge with a strong root.
It is understandable to part ways in such a major choice.
However, from the last level, the commander helped Jim Renault remove the anti-aircraft turret and let them escape, she was not too heartless.
It seemed that my sad things were revealed by my buddy again. Jim Renault, who didn't want to say too much, walked towards Mishan and asked:
"Hey guys, what I want to know is, what is Tasada hiring you for your contract?"
"He asked us to follow you." Mishan said: "As for why he followed you, Tasada didn't say much."
"Follow me?" Jim Renault's first reaction was that this was an employment contract. However, thinking about the employer being a predecessor like Tasada, it seems understandable that the unpleasant race always likes to do these divine things.
The biggest reason Jim Renault will become friends with Phoenix is that Phoenix is different from other protosses, and is the kind of straightforward and careless... so there will be things that will cause you to forget to charge the Psychic Light Blade when you go out and fail.
"Well, maybe he hopes we can protect you." Mishan said.
"Protect me? What do I have to protect?" Jim Reno didn't feel that he needed protection. Even Akturus, who hated him the most, could not send an assassin to kill him. That would only make him a martyr. A bunch of people would make him rebel under the banner of Jim Reno.
"Maybe it's because of your girlfriend's problem?" Mi Shan said with a smile.
"..." Jim Renault was once again in his throat and was not breathing.
"Actually race is not a problem, but I think the biggest problem for you is that she may not show mercy to you." Mishan found that after teasing Valenlian, she awakened some bad habits.
"This is not suitable for jokes, man," Jim Renault said with a sigh.
"Haha" Mi Shan showed a charlatan expression and forced herself to change the subject and asked, "So Commander Jim Renault, is there anything you need to help?"
"...Well," Jim Renault, who remembered that he was indeed coming to find Mishan for something, said: "There are some residents nearby who did not enter the shelter when the alien insects came, and some imperial soldiers. I hope you can help you save them."
After saying that, Jim Renault added: "This is not a difficult task before the mass invasion of the insect swarm. I can't pull away the manpower for the time being."
"It's a side mission..." After saying something Jim Renault couldn't understand, Mishan said: "No problem."
From some perspectives, this really wants to arrange tasks for mercenaries. Based on the professionalism of disguise, Mi Shan also added: "I can keep the labor fees, what is the invoice issued by myself?"
"Then there is no need..." Jim Renault wondered who else could he report to if he got the invoice? Is that foundation that is so missed?

PS: Chapter 3 is delayed, and I continue to play StarCraft. Some settings have been pushed down and started over again, and the whole plot has to be rescheduled... By the way, according to the current outline, the Wings of Freedom alone can write 100 chapters. It seems that a little plot needs to be compressed.
Chapter completed!
