In the desolate wilderness.
Zhao Ganwu was at the forefront of the battlefield.
Commanding the army of purple-eyed infected, they continued their unstoppable advance.
Springtails, hydralisks, roaches, and saboteurs mingle among the infected creatures, picking off lone enemies one by one.
"This infection crisis is a perfect fit for my abilities!"
"I must seize this opportunity and do everything possible to ensure that Su Bai firmly holds the number one spot on the list!"
"There is still one night left before the disaster ends."
"We must not be careless, lest we be overtaken by other lords."
"The infected army's march outwards cannot stop. Only in this way can we ensure that Su Bai's first place will be maintained until the very last moment."
Zhao Ganwu's gaze was intense, and the purple light in his pupils appeared exceptionally alluring.
Surrounded by numerous infected beings, he seemed like a dark messenger from hell, devouring, infecting, and assimilating every living thing within his sight with every gesture.
Kerrigan, Dehaka, and Broken Tooth, positioned in different directions, were mixed in with the infected army, frantically reaping the lives of their enemies.
If they encounter certain high-level local forces, these two heroes will act swiftly, further increasing the speed of the infected army's advance.
This infection crisis has brought joy to Su Bai, but caused suffering to the lords surrounding the desolate wilderness.
Those foreigners, and their troops, were overwhelmed by hundreds of millions of infected.
Some were torn to pieces on the spot before they even had a chance to be assimilated.
The buildings within the territory were all trampled flat, reduced to ruins.
Under the sweep of the purple-eyed infected army, the desolate wilderness and its surroundings were barren, and even a rat could be assimilated.
Those foreign lords, without life-saving items like teleportation scrolls or flight scrolls, would have no way to escape.
They can only lose their minds, their pupils turn purple, and become part of the infected army, along with their troops.
The Dragon Kingdom lords near the desolate wilderness were also terrified, too scared to even breathe.
Although these terrifying infected creatures did not attack their territory, how could one not be afraid when all they could see were these monsters?
If these lords knew that the rampage caused by the infected was due to Su Bai.
They would likely unite immediately without hesitation, and might even seek help from the state to launch a joint attack on Su Bai.
However, the idea that a human lord could control infected beings is simply too absurd.
Even if these lords racked their brains, they would never think of this as the reason.
...
...
In the blink of an eye.
An hour has passed.
It was six o'clock in the afternoon, around dusk.
The setting sun was like blood, the sky was full of rosy clouds, and the treetops were dyed a fiery red.
Ten thousand meters above the ground, a vast expanse of starlight illuminates the heavens.
An extremely large interstellar fleet hovered in the starry sky, radiating a dazzling golden light that dispelled the surrounding darkness.
The central flagship, the Spear of Adun.
Bridge.
"What did you say! Evil infected creatures have appeared on this continent below?"
Artanis, the Protoss Archbishop and Commander of the Golden Fleet, stood up abruptly, a look of seriousness in his eyes.
"Yes, Archbishop."
A slender female Protoss, with a solemn expression and a slightly deep voice, said: "This continent, known as the 'Land of Redemption,' is being ravaged by an infectious virus."
"Detectors show that the number of infected organisms has exceeded hundreds of billions."
"In addition, analysis of the captured samples showed that the Xenomorph gene was present in the infected organism."
"This means that the virus infection most likely originated from the alien insect."
"Could this distant continent have been infiltrated by the insect swarm?"
This female celestial, named Serandis, was Artanis's student and second-in-command.
Now, as the vice commander of the Golden Fleet, he assists Artanis in handling fleet-related matters.
Upon hearing this, Artanis clenched his fists.
An immense rage surged within his azure eyes.
"The Zerg have destroyed our home!"
"Every moment I think about revenge!"
"Now, the Land of Redemption has appeared, infected by Zerg-infected creatures!"
"The truth is self-evident: this pristine land has been eroded by the insect swarm."
"We must not sit idly by and allow the Zerg to grow and thrive on this continent."
Serandis continued, "From this, it seems that the reconnaissance squad that disappeared earlier must have been killed by the Zerg swarm."
“The Zerg are elusive, and finding them will take time. But these vile infected creatures must be purged.” Artanis spoke rapidly: “Distribute my holographic projection across the entire fleet.”
"Yes, Archbishop!"
Serandis nodded, stepped forward, and pressed the blue button on the control panel.
The next moment.
The ships stretched for hundreds of miles, and on the bridge of each one, a giant holographic projection of Artanis appeared.
At the same time, a resolute voice rang out.
"Fellow countrymen, I am Artanis."
“Evil infected creatures have appeared on the continent below the fleet.”
"The only way to cure the infection is to purify the blades in your hands."
"There is a high possibility that ferocious alien insects are lurking within the infected bodies, so you must be extremely careful."
"Listen to me, time is running out. We must purify the infection and find the swarm as quickly as possible!"
"Trust each other, unite our strength! Uphold the glory of battle forever!"
"We are fighting for the same belief: to exterminate the insect swarm and reclaim our homeland!"
"I firmly believe that one day, the Protoss will be able to rebuild their former glory!"
As soon as the words were spoken, all the Protoss warriors in the Golden Fleet erupted in a high-spirited cheer: "Justice is the sword! We will not give up! For Artanis! We will join forces to kill the enemy!"
After turning off the holographic projection.
Artanis said, "The repair of the Spear of Adun is more than halfway complete, and now it is at a critical juncture. I cannot leave."
"You are my best student and my most capable assistant."
"The task of eradicating the infection is now entrusted to you!"
"The mothership—the Purifier—has been fully repaired. With its help, I believe you will be invincible!"
"I guarantee the mission will be completed!" Serandis nodded emphatically.
Then, he turned and strode away.
Fifteen minutes later.
Artanis's gaze passed through the porthole as he watched the Purifier mothership break away from the fleet and gradually disappear into the starry sky.
"The Queen of Blades has mysteriously disappeared, and the entire interstellar space is in chaos, with the Zerg swarm falling apart."
"Now is the perfect time for the Protoss to rise again."
"The first step in our revenge is to wipe out all the alien insects on this continent."
"Queen of Blades, the blood feud between us will never be forgotten!"
"As long as you live, the killing will not stop!"
"Even if I have to travel across the entire galaxy, I will find you and kill you with my own hands!"
Artanis was filled with rage, his azure eyes bloodshot.
