On a remote and desolate planetary synchronous orbit on the outskirts of the Koprulu sector, there is a large abandoned space gas station floating in the planet's synchronous orbit. It looks shabby, and even the sign has been replaced. Only half is left!
Obviously, this thing has not been taken care of for at least many years?
It was originally a large-scale artificial space station built during the old Terran Federation. It is a multi-functional space station that integrates energy supplementation, leisure and entertainment, shopping and accommodation. The actual area inside is equivalent to a large space base, enough to accommodate several people. Thousands of people!
Of course, this was only the situation before, not now!
This place was originally located on a busy commercial waterway. Various space merchant ships or space cruise ships carrying passengers often needed to replenish energy and materials here, making this space gas station extremely prosperous.
But later, due to the war between the Autonomous Alliance and the Old Terran Federation, several important commercial, mineral, or tourist colonial planets on this route were seriously damaged by the war, making this route gradually become deserted.
As time went by, this large space gas station, which could not make ends meet and had not seen a spacecraft dock all year round, was eventually reluctantly abandoned by its original owner...
However, although it looks a bit shabby on the outside now, there is something special on the inside!
Because it was secretly modified and reinstalled with new power by the ghost troops of the Tyranid Empire, so that it would not crash to the surface of this desolate planet due to loss of speed.
At the same time, it is also a secret base for ghost agents, where at least hundreds of ghost agents and hundreds of other marines and staff are stationed here all year round! These people are often ordered here to go to various star sectors to carry out Mengsk's secret missions.
At this time, in a large training hall in the secret base of ghost agents, there were more than a hundred ghost agents holding guns with complicated expressions surrounding three subdued agents who were also wearing ghost suits.
And on the ground around them, there were actually a dozen ghosts or Marines lying in a pool of blood.
Just when the three agents who were surrounded in the center of the training hall did not understand why these former colleagues would suddenly attack and besiege themselves and others, these besieging ghost agents suddenly gave way to a path, and then, a The female ghost with a good figure and a beautiful face, holding an electromagnetic pistol in her right hand and carrying a special weapon box on her left and right, walked towards the frightened three people in the encirclement from the way of the crowd. .
"Who are you……"
"So it's you? Why did you do this? What good does this do to you!"
"Nova? You bitch! How dare you betray the empire? Emperor Mengsk will not let you go! And all of you, too!!!"
When they saw that the person who walked up to them was Agent Nova, the three ghosts were surprised and puzzled, and they all questioned her, and one of them even started to curse.
They don't understand, this Nova, why would she do this? What good would it do her to betray the Empire? Moreover, what method did she use to get so many agents to listen to her words?
"snort!!"
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Nova, who had a cold face, didn't even bother to say a word. After snorting coldly, she waved her hand and fired three shots at lightning speed.
Three hot electromagnetic bullets penetrated into the wooden floor from the foreheads of the three people who were yelling, and penetrated into the wooden floor from the back of their heads, causing them to lie down on the ground. After being motionless in the liquid mixed with blood and brain matter, he raised his head with a sneer and looked around at the concerned people.
"All of you, listen to me!"
After looking coldly at these ghosts with complex expressions, who were extremely reluctant but had to obey her orders, Nova felt a strange pleasure in her heart.
That's right, sometimes, when she is unhappy, she can try to make more people unhappy! In this way, she will be satisfied?
"These are mass-produced contract gems! As for their effects, I think you must have a deep understanding of them now, right?"
After looking at the colleagues around her with complicated expressions with interest, Nova smiled coquettishly and kicked the box she was carrying in her left hand filled with at least hundreds of red gems about the size of a thumb. Kicked in front of these people.
"There are still many people in this base, and they don't know what is going on here. Therefore, I need you to leave now and get all the valuable targets and military commanders before they react." Take control!"
"If anyone fails to control...then just like these three people, kill them all! Do you understand? Then start taking action quickly!"
After watching these ghost agents silently bend down to grab a handful of gems, and then turn on their invisibility and leave through the open hall door, Nova glanced at the empty weapon box.
Then, she didn't know what she thought of, and laughed to herself. She also activated the invisibility device of the ghost suit and disappeared into the training hall where more than a dozen dead people were lying, turning this place that should have been noisy into a hustle and bustle. Because there is no one alive...
This red gem is obviously the work of the Supreme Head of the Federation of Heroes, the demigod mage Anne Hastur.
Eager to rule the entire Koprulu sector, but not wanting to fight honestly, and even less willing to follow the example of Mengsk, who used his personal charm and speech skills to deceive others and waste time, little Annie, in her eagerness for quick success, So they brought in a lot of energy crystals, and at the same time started making a mass-produced slavery contract transformation circle.
Then, she threw in all the high-energy crystals used as carriers and energy sources!
Then, those crystals were like popping beans in the magic circle, and she easily got a lot of mass-produced soul slavery contract carrying tools for her.
From your point of view, if you catch one slave or a hundred slaves, why not go bigger and catch tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of them?
Anyone controlled by this mass-produced contract gem will not have any changes in their memory, thoughts and will, but will only instinctively not and cannot disobey orders, let alone make any move against the head of state. , It’s just an act against the Federation of Heroes!
Moreover, because it is a mass-produced type, the effectiveness of this thing is a bit low, and it only has a control effect of more than ten years.
As for their success rate, although it is not 100%, it is not too low. To say the least, no matter how bad it is, there is a probability of more than 98% that the contract can be obtained.
It is precisely because of this that the several staff members who were killed and the three ghost agents who were surrounded before were killed!
Who made them have such high resistance and soul strength when they made the contract, and they happened to encounter that extremely low probability?
Of course, this contract gem is not without its shortcomings, and its biggest shortcoming is that it only has a control effect of more than ten years. However, little Annie never worries about this problem!
Think about it, if a person has been silently controlled from the soul for more than ten years, but his own will is not disturbed at all, by the time the contract on him (or her) disappears and ends, he (or she) will have already been accustomed to obeying orders. They are accustomed to serving in the Federation of Heroes and have been institutionalized. Do they still want to turn a corner?
Habits developed over more than ten years are very fatal to humans who only have a life span of about a hundred years!
"Hello? Hello? Has anyone received it? Answer quickly!"
"I am the communications soldier of Space Station XXX, Ghost Base. A big event happened here!"
"Those ghost agents, they have all rebelled! They, as well as the military commanders of the base, have also rebelled! Everyone who is unwilling to join them has been almost killed! Now, I beg you to save me. Help me! Did anyone hear it? I beg for help... uh..."
When the communications officer was hiding in a remote abandoned pipe and quietly using a portable communication device to try to communicate with the outside world, suddenly, a psionic blade shining with blue light came directly from his mouth. He poked it out, rudely interrupting his attempt to continue calling.
"Well……"
Then, when he dropped the communication device, there were strange sounds in his throat, and when he tried to reach out to cover his mouth full of blood, the psychic blade was violently twisted by the invisible being behind him. Move, then rotate hard...
A human head with wide eyes and an incredible expression on its face slipped down quietly, and soon fell into a huge dusty steel pipe together with his headless body. .
The surrounding light was distorted, and Nova's figure emerged. She glanced coldly at the portable communication device. The red light on it, which represented a poor signal, kept flashing wildly.
"Hmph! Stupid!"
Then, she snorted coldly, took two steps forward, raised her foot, and trampled the communication device into a pile of sparks.
Still want to communicate with others? How could she, Nova, make such a low-level mistake?
Before she was ready to launch operations in this ghost's secret base, her warship parked in the port area had already blocked all signals near the airport!
Therefore, before sunrise tomorrow, before they completely take control of this base and eliminate all contract losers or fish that slipped through the net, the communication here will never be restored!
"A bunch of useless things!"
Those incompetent ghosts actually missed such a communication soldier, which made her feel very dissatisfied!
You know, this is only the first small step of the "Heaven Stealing Plan" that she is responsible for, and she almost made those bastards create a big trap!
Could it be that the overall quality of these ghost recruits in the empire is now at this level?
When Nova became invisible again and left, except for a separated corpse and a series of bloody footprints, there was only endless darkness left in this abandoned space station area...
————
At the same time that ghost agent Nova began to act, Tosh and his ghosts also began to act in an area of the Koprulu sector.
Planet Terrador II, this is the second planet in the Terrador colonial planet chain. Since Planet Terrador I was destroyed by war during the Tyranid Federation, this place has become the capital of the administrative region of the planet Terrador. Planets and military guard planets.
Not only is it the seat of the Council of Supreme Administrators of the planetary administrative region, it is also the homeport planet of the Terrador local fleet!
Here, there are approximately millions of imperial troops and hundreds of interstellar battleships of all sizes stationed! Of course, except for the three battleships, most of them are small and medium-sized cruisers or troop carriers.
It is these fleets and armies that are responsible for the safety and stability of the entire Tyrado administrative region, which is one of the important administrative regions of the Tyranids.
However, since the UNN TV station broke the black information about Emperor Mengsk not long ago, more than a dozen colonial planets in the Terrador administrative region have become turbulent.
People came to the streets to protest almost every day, and various violent incidents occurred one after another. Even Terrador's star fleet and ground army became a bit chaotic. Some soldiers or middle- and low-level officers were more or less They openly disobeyed orders, and even began to show signs of deserting or preparing for riots?
While the Speaker of the Administrative District and the Fleet Commanders are struggling with various issues, the Terrador Chamber of Commerce, which has strong financial resources and ranks first in the Terrador sector, has intersections with both black and white, and even has high-ranking officials in the imperial capital. The presidents of the chambers of commerce, who were all in contact, suddenly sent invitations to the chairman of the administrative district, the fleet commander, the commander of the ground forces, etc.
It is said that the Terrador Chamber of Commerce discovered a strange planet in the distant star field, and then, there is some kind of extremely rare energy gem on the planet? It's a pity that there is a large-scale insect swarm around this planet?
Therefore, when they couldn't swallow anything, the president of the Chamber of Commerce planned to invite Terrador military and political dignitaries to participate in the development of the huge potential they discovered based on the principle of mutual benefit and reciprocity. The planet of wealth.
As for the military and political leaders who were already annoyed by all the chores in the sector, after hearing about this pie-in-the-sky good thing, of course they agreed on the spot and promised to arrive on time!
Therefore, today, after they, the top military and political leaders, had finished their respective affairs, they took their subordinates or bodyguards as scheduled, boarded various spaceships, and arrived at the subordinate station above the planetary synchronous orbit of Terrador II. In a manor-style space station of the Terrador Chamber of Commerce.
In this platform-style garden building, a party that only belonged to the military and political leaders and upper-class people in the sector was being held.
Here, there is as much luxury as one can imagine!
The ground is a finely carved gemstone floor, dotted with precious flowers containing specialties from various planets, strange trees, various magical animals, etc.!
The sky is directly covered with hemispherical transparent high-strength military glass, which can effectively block harmful rays and strong light in the universe, and allows visiting VIPs to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Terrador star region.
That is to say, the Terrador Chamber of Commerce has such outrageous financial resources to build such a manor-like orbital platform on the synchronous orbit! Its cost alone might be comparable to one or two battleships? Only the corrupt bureaucrats and dignitaries of the Tyran Empire or the top executives of the Chamber of Commerce can enjoy such comfortable treatment.
"Haha! Commander William? Why, you were invited too?"
"Come on, let's have a good chat. Recently, I haven't had the chance to have a few drinks with you! By the way, how are you handling the military affairs recently?"
The speaker of the parliament, who was holding a wine glass and chatting with his colleagues, when he saw several officers in military uniforms and civilian clothes led by the waiter to the garden, his eyes lit up and he raised his glass to greet them with a smile.
"Oh! Is it Mr. Speaker?"
"Oh... don't mention it! Our army is probably much more chaotic than your city now! I don't dare to move or assign any combat missions now, for fear of causing some big trouble!"
Commander William shook his head while chatting with the Speaker, sat down on an exquisite white jade chair, and waved to the waiter to bring him a glass of wine.
"Gentlemen and ladies! Welcome to the Sky Eden of the Terrador Chamber of Commerce! Today, I am very happy that you can take time out of your busy schedule to come here. We..."
When all the invited dignitaries had arrived, the old president of the Terrador Chamber of Commerce, an old man with Mediterranean hair, wore a decent old-style tuxedo and walked to a podium that had been temporarily moved by the attendants. Later, he began to speak into the microphone.
"Okay, Hanks! We are all old acquaintances, so there's no need to be more polite, right? Hurry up and show us your findings. If it's true, I believe, I I’ll definitely get involved!”
Commander William, who was busy with military affairs and had no time to be polite with the old man here, immediately started shouting loudly.
"Commander William is right! Hanks, don't you know how busy we people have been during the recent period?"
After seeing what the military boss said, the speaker also agreed.
He just scanned the surroundings and discovered that here, there were not only the top military, political and commercial leaders of the Terrador star region, but also some leaders of the underworld mercenaries?
In this Terrador Chamber of Commerce, what did they discover that was so remarkable that it was worth inviting so many people to participate? Isn’t this old man Hanks afraid of having too much food for the monks? At that time, in the case of uneven distribution, there will not be just one or two people offended!
"That's right! Let's get straight to the point, old Hanks..."
"Haha! I just like Commander William's straightforward personality!"
"Second the proposal! Solve it as soon as possible and go back as soon as possible!"
"I agree too!"
"Let's talk about the profitable business quickly, and then we can talk about other things!"
Seeing that some bosses started to ask to get to the point directly, others started to make noises after whispering for a while.
Ever since they learned that the Terrador Chamber of Commerce had discovered a planet that contained extremely valuable energy crystals, these people have been itching for a long time!
This large chamber of commerce, which usually doesn't even bother to look at people like them, is surprisingly willing to share it this time? So, what did they find? So that they have to share it and plan to develop it together when they can't keep it all?
How much benefit will there be in this? Is it worth inviting so many people to the Terrador Chamber of Commerce? Just thinking about it can make most people here blush and gasp!
"Okay, okay, everyone, just be quiet for a moment..."
Seeing that the situation was starting to get out of his control, Old Hanks had no choice but to lower his hand and signal everyone to calm down patiently and listen to what he, the old man, had to say.
"Since everyone is in such an urgent mood, I, the old man, will no longer hide it! Now, I would like to ask Mr. Xu!"
After an inexplicable smile flashed across his lips that no one noticed, Old Hanks spoke loudly and looked towards the other side of the garden platform gate.
Then, everyone saw a dark-skinned bearded man wearing a crisp suit, tie, and a pair of sunglasses on his nose leading several attendants who each held an exquisite crystal plate in their hands. .
Then, at the sign of the big man wearing sunglasses, these attendants began to spread out, holding the crystal plates, and walked up to each of the distinguished guests, indicating that they could pick up the red gem-like crystals for a preliminary appreciation. .
Obviously, this should be the precious mineral discovered by their Terrador Chamber of Commerce?
"Hmm...this...seems like it's just a beautiful energy crystal?"
"I'm sorry, Hanks. In my opinion, except for the different colors, they seem to be no different from the high-energy crystals I often see?"
After Commander William picked up a red gem and looked at it carefully for a while, weighed the weight, and then moved closer to feel the energy fluctuations in it, he looked curiously towards Old Hank, who was still standing behind the podium with a smile. Si asked.
Anyway, no matter how he looks at it, this is just a cut out red high-energy crystal?
At most, the color is a bit weird? pretty? Could it be that the Terrador Chamber of Commerce discovered some special uses in it that he didn't know about?
Their military had a lot of exposure to high-energy crystals and high-energy gases, so William felt that his own judgment should not be wrong!
"That's right! I also think this crystal is very ordinary... At most, the energy concentration is a little higher?"
"It's quite beautiful. Maybe, this thing can be sold as a gem?"
"Don't be ridiculous! Gold and gems are worthless now, so it's better to develop them as energy crystals!"
"Well, I wonder if you have noticed that the energy contained in it seems to be very active?"
After hearing Fleet Commander William's question, others looked up at Hanks, the president of the Chamber of Commerce, with a little curiosity, hoping that he could give an answer that would satisfy them all.
"Haha... I would like to ask our captain, who discovered this special mineral, to answer this question for everyone!"
After a cold light flashed in his eyes, Old Hanks made way for the podium, allowing Tuosh, who was dressed like a dog, to stand up.
"Ahem! Hello everyone! My name is Tuosh... okay..."
After seeing that the dignitaries below seemed not interested in the name of his little pawn, Tuosh didn't bother to explain anything.
"Since all the distinguished guests are already impatient, let me speak frankly!"
"Actually, these gems are just high-energy crystals... However, they have a very wonderful use. As long as we do this, some very wonderful things will happen to it! Just like... like this? "
After saying that, Tuo Xu looked at the dignitaries in the audience with a sinister smile and quickly snapped his fingers.
In the next second, when everyone was stunned, the red high-energy crystals in the hands of the group of high-ranking officials and dignitaries below suddenly emitted bursts of coquettish red light, and quickly engulfed the unprepared military and political dignitaries. It was wrapped up in Tuantuan...

"Wow? My Führer has been modified by you?!"
On the second day after returning to Haiwen Star, Anne received a notice: Her ship numbered 1, the Head of State, had been officially refitted as of now.
The hard-working SCV engineers and employees at the Starport Factory, based on the bizarre drawings and holographic models provided by their little head of state, took nearly a month to install strips on this huge battleship inside and out. The energy circuit paved with high-energy crystals, although they don't know what's the use of it?
"Master Anne, I have to ask here: What is the use of wasting so much energy crystal to modify this expensive battleship into this appearance?"
Doug has always been puzzled by this matter!
Whether it was the results of the discussions among the engineers or the simulation calculations of Dawn of Intelligence, they could not understand the significance of the modifications carried out by the head of state on the battleship.
If it weren't for the fact that everything their little head of state has always done has a certain meaning, I don't know, she, Doug, would have secretly stopped this matter, right?
"Of course it's useless now! Because I haven't installed the magic core and magic circle link on it yet!"
How could it be useless?
Little Annie has long planned to turn this flagship of hers into a moving mage tower! Magic battleships and cannons. Are you afraid?
Once she installed the magic core and a large number of links to the magic circle, it was barely usable! And the circuits of those high-energy crystals are just conductive energy!
At that time, as long as there is enough energy, a big planet can be easily smashed to pieces for you to see!
"Is it your weird thing called magic again?"
Doug knew it would be like this.
It was precisely because of this that she had not spoken out to block the modification of the battleship before, and secretly asked the engineers to copy all the drawings, preparing to hand them over to dedicated personnel for study later.
"Nonsense! Magic isn't weird! It's just that you don't understand it!"
After saying that, little Annie stopped caring about her and disappeared in a flash.
She needs to go to the battleship now and take a look to see if those ignorant engineers have modified her magic circuit without authorization?
This matter must be treated with caution! If there is a mistake or if a certain energy circuit is not strong, there will be big problems when the spell is cast later. This must not be careless!
"By the way! Galen! What did you do when you secretly left Haven Star this time?!"
Seeing his head of state teleporting away, Doug immediately sternly questioned Galen, the leader of the guard who was responsible for following the little head of state throughout the process.
This time, little Annie disappeared with the medium-sized cruiser for several days without any report and could not be contacted during the process, but this period made Doug worry for a long time!
"Haha! Well...trust me, Adjutant Doug, you definitely don't want to know about this!"
After thinking about all the things little Annie had done in the past few days and what she was about to do, Galen was afraid of scaring Lieutenant Doug, so he did not dare to say it directly.
Besides, Head of State Anne has given strict orders about this matter. All of them must not tell anyone about it until the matter is successful!
Anyone who dares to ruin her good deeds will definitely not be as simple as shutting up a small dark room!
"Mysterious..."
Looking at the twenty heads of state guards who were all silent and secretive, Doug was not too embarrassed and waved his hand, indicating that they could get out now.
When she thought about it, the most she could do was to sneak away to a certain planet with the little girl and go to other people's territory to have sex and have picnic parties and the like? Or maybe you accidentally robbed someone of some good stuff, and that’s it, right? What else could happen?
"..."
Originally, there were some matters that needed to be handled personally by Chief Anne, but thinking about the other party's consistent attitude, Doug felt that it was better to discuss the matter with other people in the military and parliament.
