I, Yuhaka, am hungry!

This time, the explosive insect blades launched by the alien dragon were clearly not aimed at the soldiers, but rather at the siege tanks!

Thinking this, Warfield saw the alien dragons suddenly change direction in the air and rush towards the position where the siege tanks were deployed. Before Warfield could say anything, the alien dragons launched an attack on the siege tanks. A large number of explosive insect blades were concentrated and launched at the slightly thinner armor on the top of the siege tanks. The power of the blade explosion also ripped off the hulls of the siege tanks, and instantly those siege tanks were turned into scrap metal.

The culprit, the alien dragon, simply dusted itself off and flew away, clearly not intending to fight Warfield and his group to the death. Warfield, seeing this, wanted to shout, "I'm so angry!" But before that, Warfield turned his attention to the Thunder Beast that was charging towards them, which had recovered. It was obvious that the beast had recovered some of its injuries from the previous siege tank shelling.

"Roar--!"

After letting out a roar, the Thunder Beast charged aggressively towards Warfield's defensive line. The Imperial soldiers who saw this were terrified, and Warfield had no choice but to order his soldiers to scatter. At that moment, a crimson-black light descended from the sky and struck the Thunder Beast on the head, causing it to brake by landing headfirst on the ground.

Warfield and his companions were also somewhat shocked to see this. They were clearly not able to process what was happening. After the dust settled, Warfield and his companions saw a short figure standing on the head of the Thunder Beast.

And this figure was Yhaka. Earlier, Yhaka saw a Thunder Beast rushing towards Warfield and the others from the air, so he hit the Thunder Beast on the head and knocked it down in one blow.

General Warfield and his soldiers were dumbfounded when they saw Yohaka. Although Yohaka was wearing a cloak and Ghost Agent uniform, his short stature made Warfield and his men look puzzled.

Most importantly, where did that little guy come from? How come they didn't see him? It's impossible that the missile-like object was that little guy, right?

It was at this moment that the Thunder Beast stood up again. When Warfield saw the Thunder Beast get up, he broke out in a cold sweat. Obviously, the fact that the Thunder Beast was not dead made Warfield nervous. He knew that they had no heavy firepower units left. If the Thunder Beast charged over, then they would have nothing to stop an angry Thunder Beast.

Just as Warfield had predicted, the Thunder Beast that had been knocked down by the dwarf rose up with a huge roar and turned to charge at the Zerg behind it. Warfield was stunned by this, clearly not expecting such a development. His soldiers were also dumbfounded by the sudden "betrayal" of the Thunder Beast.

The reason why the Thunder Beast suddenly turned against them is quite simple: Yhwach used his psionic abilities to control it. Yhwach's psionic power is similar to the void psionic power of the Nerazim and Tal'darim protoss, so he can naturally achieve abilities like a Dark Archon. He learned these skills from the Dark Templars and Tosh whom he rescued, and he learned them very quickly, mastering almost all of them.

This led to the scene of Yhaka piloting the Thunder Beast Shovel against the Zerg.

Chapter 1127 [Choosing Between Two Plans]

The Ultralisk, controlled by Yhaka, wielded its massive claws to reap the harvest of its own kind. Generally speaking, powerful Zerg ground units like the Ultralisk have sufficient resistance to mind control, but Yhaka's ability to control the Ultralisk far exceeds its resistance. Basically, the Ultralisk has no way to resist Yhaka's psionic control.

When Reno and his group arrived, they saw Yhaka piloting the Thunder Beast to attack the Zerg. Upon seeing this, Reno and his group were puzzled, but they quickly recovered and helped Yhaka deal with the Zerg.

After the Zerg were dealt with here, Yhaka, like a discarded tool, used Shadow Strike to eliminate the Thunder Beast. Raynor then reunited with Warfield and the others. Looking at the exhausted Warfield, Raynor said:

"General Warfield, it seems we are not too late."

In response to Renault's words, Warfield smiled helplessly and said:

“No, Mr. Renault, you’ve arrived just in time. If you hadn’t shown up, our formation would have been breached by the Thunder Beasts.”

"Although I don't want to spoil your fun, guys, now is not the time for chatting."

Upon hearing Tychus's words, Raynor nodded in understanding. After all, the Zerg swarm's attack had not completely stopped yet, and setting up a defensive line was the most important thing.

.................................................. ........................

The defensive line established at Warfield has been expanded due to the arrival of Reynolds and his team. At the same time, equipment from Reynolds's defensive line has been moved here to strengthen the defenses. It was fortunate that the cooling system of the nuclear reactor inside Warfield's battlecruiser was not damaged after it crashed, at least there was no need to worry about the battlecruiser exploding.

Although there wasn't much damage inside the ship, it was basically unable to fly. Parts of the hull structure were about to fall apart, and it was a miracle that the laser cannons on board were still usable. At the same time, there was still a considerable amount of ammunition available inside, which was undoubtedly good news. Renault and his crew didn't need to worry about ammunition supplies for the time being.

On the defensive position, Warfield stared curiously at Yuhaka sitting to the side. Yuhaka's cat-ear-like cloak was easy to recognize. When the Thunder Beast was about to break through the defense line, Warfield clearly saw Yuhaka above the Thunder Beast's head. Although he didn't know why the Thunder Beast suddenly attacked its own people, Warfield guessed that it was probably the little guy in front of him who did it.

However... Warfield was quite puzzled when he looked at Theresa and the others eating energy bars with Yohaka. Why were there children here?!

Warfield was also a little dumbfounded, not quite understanding why Renault and the others were there. But why were there several children as well?

Before Warfield could figure anything out, Tychus, who was holding a twin-barreled machine gun turret not far away, shouted at Reno and the others:

"Hey kid! Get a few ammo boxes over here, we're out of ammo!"

Upon hearing Tychus's words, Yuhaka glanced back at Tychus before jumping off the empty ammo box. He then ran to the supply station and tossed several ammo boxes high at Tychus's feet before running back to continue munching on his energy bars.

Tychus opened the ammunition box, loaded the ammunition into the weapon, and said to Raynor:

"Jimmy, these bugs are really relentless. If this were a game, I think it would be the most exciting shooting game in the entire galaxy!"

Reno frowned and said to Tychus what he had said:

“It’s not that I want to spoil your fun, Tychus, but we have to push toward the main hive.”

Upon hearing Renault's order, Tychus looked up at the sky and complained to Renault:

"Brother, that's a bit much. There are swarms of insects flying all over our heads and tunnel bugs crawling around our crotches. You want me to push it that way?"

"Ha...you always inspire people, Tychus."

Just as Tychus said, the current situation isn't good for Raynor and his team. There are swarms of Zerg air units in the sky, and burrowing worms are constantly emerging from the ground, which is quite troublesome. Thinking about this, Raynor had a headache. He looked at Warfield and asked:

"General, what's your opinion on this matter?"

Hearing Reno's words, Warfield also turned his attention away from Yuhaka and the others. Warfield looked at the tactical map displayed on the projector and said:

"Hmm... Judging from the current situation, both the aerial swarms and the underground swarms are threats to us. We must eliminate one of them before we can head towards the main hive, otherwise we might be scattered by the swarms before we reach it."

Raynor nodded in agreement with General Warfield's words. Both of them posed a threat to their current march, and it would be best to eliminate those Zerg as soon as possible.

After all, not long ago, Raynor and his team saw in the UNN news broadcast that the Zerg forces within the territory of the Terran Empire had gathered towards Char. If they didn't quickly resolve the situation in Char, they would face a pincer attack from both sides by the Zerg swarm.

Attacking the main hive rashly now would be tantamount to suicide. Although Yhaka is very strong, she cannot defeat Kerrigan and her swarm by herself alone. Moreover, they must eliminate the swarm's harassment tactics.

"The underground tunnel worms, the swarm's orbital platform... these two problems are not easy to solve."

The tunnel worms need to enter the swarm's underground tunnel network in small teams to plant explosives at specific locations to disrupt the stable underground structure, allowing lava to flood the tunnel network. This way, they don't have to worry about tunnel worms scurrying out from under their feet.

Meanwhile, the Zerg air force orbital platform also needs to have its reactor detonated to destroy it. Currently, 80% of the Zerg's air force nests are located there. Once those platforms are destroyed, they will essentially have control of the airspace.

Chapter 1128 [I want them all! OwO]

While Raynor and his team were debating which target to destroy, Yhwach, chewing on an energy bar, looked at Raynor, Tychus, and Warfield with a puzzled expression and said:

"Why can't I have them all? O~O"

Hearing Yuhaka's words, Renault and the others, who had just been discussing methods, were stunned. Clearly, they hadn't considered eliminating both targets simultaneously. Renault, as if struck by a thought, spoke up:

"That's right. The team sent to sabotage the tunnel worm network doesn't need to be too many people. Just a few elite soldiers can go into the tunnel worm network to plant bombs and that will do the trick. And the airborne railgun can be used by the air force to destroy the cooling systems and detonate the reactors, thus destroying the platform."

General Warfield, who was standing nearby, also thought the method was feasible after hearing what Raynor and Yhaka said. After all, destroying the tunnel worm network would not require the use of the air force, which would basically avoid the problem of insufficient personnel due to splitting up the forces.

After Warfield also found the plan feasible, he asked Raynor about the personnel allocation. Raynor planned to go into the tunnel worm network with Tychus, Swann, Stetman, Yhaka, Moonlit, and Theresa to plant explosives and destroy the swarm's orbital platform. Raynor planned to have Warfield, Horner, and Stargazer work together.

Warfield had no objection to this arrangement and even wanted to ask if Renault and his team needed to borrow any people. However, considering Yuhaka's previous performance, Warfield was too embarrassed to say so, since he dared not say that his subordinates had the ability to control the Thunder Beast.

After finalizing the plan, Renault and Warfield split up and began to work separately.

.................................................. ..............................

Located inside the tunnel worm network, the obstructing rock layers prevented accurate detection of the swarm's biological signals, making it impossible to know what was happening inside. Raynor and his team could only probe the situation using small-scale detectors and Yhaka. Furthermore, Yhaka's ability to create dimensional portals allowed Raynor and his team to store fusion devices, saving them time and enabling them to carry more supplies to ensure they had enough ammunition.

At the same time, Warfield also told Raynor that several members of their Imperial squad had taken refuge in tunnels during their landing to avoid Zerg attacks. If Raynor could find them, Warfield would contact them and follow Raynor's orders to help him complete his mission.

Although Raynor did not want to have too many people walking around in the Zerg's tunnel network, he couldn't just abandon them, could he?

Of course, since this is not a rescue mission, Renault cannot completely guarantee their safety.

After entering the tunnel worm network, Reno led Ehaka and the others toward their target location. Because they were underground, the lighting was not very good. Although the lava provided some brightness, it wasn't bright throughout the entire tunnel.

Yhaka was in charge of leading the way, because Yhaka's eyes could see clearly in the dark. Renault also had Yhaka scout the situation so that if there were any enemies, they could be notified in advance.

Theresa felt a chill as she looked around at the dark cave, even though the outside temperature was enough to bake a person dry. Theresa felt like she was in a horror movie. It was a good thing that the alien insects didn't build houses, otherwise Theresa would probably feel like she had entered a haunted house.

Under the moonlight, staring with crimson eyes, he noticed Theresa's somewhat unusual behavior and, out of curiosity, patted Theresa on the shoulder and said:

"Sister Theresa, what's wrong? You seem a bit strange?"

Hearing what Yuexia said, Theresa snapped out of her reverie and replied with a slightly embarrassed expression:

"Huh? Oh! I was just keeping an eye out for any alien insects that might suddenly appear!"

After hearing Theresa's words, Yuexia looked at Theresa with a puzzled expression. For some reason, Yuexia felt that Theresa was lying, but since Yuexia felt that Theresa had no reason to lie, she didn't say anything.

Soon after entering the tunnel worm network, Yhaka spotted several Zerglings waiting in the distance. Upon seeing Yhaka and her companions' lights, the Zerglings roared and charged towards them. Yhaka transformed Baladion into a machine gun-like weapon similar to the one in Tychus's hand and began firing at the charging Zerglings.

When Tychus saw Ehaka stealing monsters, he immediately pulled out his machine gun and said:

"Hey! Wait! This is my job!"

"It's Yoyo OwO now!"

Yhaka seemed completely unconcerned by Tychus's words, clearly finding this method convenient for dealing with the Zerg. Meanwhile, Raynor, raising his weapon—which resembled an anti-tank sniper rifle—and pointing it at the distant Spiny Crawlers, subtly reminded Yhaka and Tychus:

"You two shouldn't go too far."

With that, Renault pulled the trigger, and with a gunshot, the spine-spined reptile in the distance was dead beyond any doubt.

In less than half a minute, the Zerg in front of Raynor were reduced to a pile of corpses. After Raynor briefly checked the detector and found no signs of life from the Zerg, he said to the others:

"Alright, the Zerg in this area have been cleared. Let's continue."

Under Raynor's orders, Yhaka and her group continued their journey. On their way to the target area, Raynor and his team encountered many Zerg, but under Yhaka's firepower, the Zerg were basically killed as soon as they charged. Later, General Warfield contacted Raynor and her team, saying that a small squad was trapped nearby and hoping that Raynor could rescue them. Upon hearing General Warfield's words, Raynor and her team rushed over to rescue the Imperial troops.

Finally, just as they were about to reach their target location, several tunnel worms suddenly emerged. Fortunately, Yuhaka wielded the Demon-Slaying Holy Sword and with a single swift strike, beheaded all the smaller tunnel worms. Not a single alien insect had a chance to emerge.

Soon, after arriving at the first target location, Yuhaka took out a huge fusion device from the dimensional hole and installed it on the ground. Swan, who was standing nearby, also came over to adjust the device. There was no other way; only Swan, the engineer, knew how to make this thing. Otherwise, Swan really wouldn't want to get off the Hyperion.

Chapter 1129 [Thunder Beast: Here we go again?!]

Under Swan's operation, the fusion device was quickly installed in a fissure within the tunnel worm network. After the fission device drilled through the rock strata, the fusion device would launch a nuclear bomb inside, detonating it from the inside to blast open the rock strata. At that point, lava would engulf the tunnel worm network in that area. Once the fissures at the three tunnel worm network locations were successfully detonated, the entire surrounding area's tunnel worm network would be submerged by lava, and there would be no need to worry about tunnel worms attacking their rear.

After Swan finished setting up the fusion device, he also told Reynolds and the others:

"Alright, Mr. Cowboy, the fusion device is installed. Now we just need to wait until it's almost finished before we can leave."

Upon hearing Swann's answer, Renault nodded and said:

"Alright, brothers, we must protect the fusion device and not let the swarm destroy it. Swan, where are the turrets you brought?"

Following Renault's instructions, Swann echoed what Yhaka had said:

"Alright, little guy, put some of the Fiery Betty on those roads."

"Youyou knows~ OwO~"

Upon hearing Swan's words, Yhaka pulled out a flamethrower turret even larger than himself from his dimensional portal and installed it on the road some distance away. Because Yhaka had a dimensional portal, Swan had brought over quite a few turrets with powerful firepower this time.

Along all the necessary routes, Yhaka placed those turrets, so that any Zerg that come by will be attacked by the [Fire Betty] flamethrowers made by Swann.

Not long after Reno and his team set up the fusion device and turrets, tunnel worms emerged from a nearby location. The appearance of the tunnel worms was not surprising to everyone. The moment the tunnel worms emerged, they were immediately targeted by Yhaka and Reno, and were basically killed with one shot each.

Perhaps realizing that getting too close to Yhaka and the others would get them attacked, the Zerglings moved the Tunnel Bugs further away. However, it was basically useless, since Yhaka could sense the Tunnel Bugs burrowing underground. As long as they weren't too far away, Yhaka could basically sneak up and kill them.

After the fusion device finished its work, Reno told everyone to leave quickly. After Reno and the others ran to a safe distance, a loud bang was heard in the distance, accompanied by a strong tremor.

After confirming the successful detonation of the first fusion device, Reynolds couldn't help but speak.

"Well done! We've successfully destroyed the first target. Now, after destroying the next two, this network of tunnel worms will be swallowed by lava."

Theresa, who was standing nearby, also opened her small computer to check the target's coordinates and said:

"That's certainly true, but after the first fusion device was detonated, the Zerg must have known what we were planning to do, right?"
