Invincible Chapter 367

Perhaps because of the so-called incompatibility, in Jim Leno's eyes, Kane Zhao is not a person to work with.

As he complained privately to his old friend Miles: "That guy is a lunatic who doesn't take his own life seriously, and he doesn't take other people's lives seriously."

Facing Renault like this, Miles didn't know how to keep him. New Melbourne no longer exists. Although he is now the chief justice of Fort Asylum, from the perspective of federal officials, this position, and even this city, are not recognized.

Liberty's comment on this is: "As always, the league is good at showing off its cuteness. It neither admits it nor firmly denies it. This makes it easy to make a fuss. If it is really pressed, it will say: 'Isn't there a refugee camp? I There are no appointed civil servants here, and there is no report for self-government over there!' In short, it is a good bureaucratic tone."

So on the day that New Melbourne declared that he would cease to exist, Renault would automatically step down as the sheriff and become his ranger.

Having been a magistrate for four years, Lei Nuo also has a few younger brothers who are willing to follow regardless of gains or losses.

And Kane also added icing on the cake, saying that he can understand that Renault has full autonomy in his career instead of having a bunch of immediate bosses in charge.

So, Renault left, and he generously gave away a lot of equipment. As a result, although Renault is a little short in manpower compared to the same period in history, its weapons and equipment are much stronger.

Not only everyone has the advanced CMC-500 personal magic modified custom version power armor available, but also privately modified heavy-duty vulture tanks, hellfire tanks, and liquidator armored vehicles.

The highlight is a light armed transport ship that uses the skeleton shell of a ground-effect aircraft, but is equipped with the mainstream plasma jet engine and warp jump engine on the market, as well as a vector control system (both are large-scale equipment, basically maintaining the original shape instead of In the context of external equipment, after these three items and auxiliary equipment are loaded, the space is very limited).

It was built according to Renault's ideas, so he liked this ship very much, and named it 'Litty', which was the nickname of his late wife Lydia Elizabeth Reynolds.

After pulling up his own small team, Renault did not leave Marsala directly, but reportedly went to visit an old friend. There was no news after that. Kane did not pay attention deliberately, and he never seemed to see Renault in Arnhem.

Arnhem is one of the few settlements in the Northland region that mainly focuses on food cultivation. Of course, the barren land and backward planting technology prevented the people of Arnhem from making a fortune even if they worked hard enough.

This is actually a good thing to a certain extent. Local officials are not under much pressure, and they do not deceive others. Taxes are lower. People feed livestock with the grain they grow.

Its ecology is a bit like that of the Texas farm in the original world, where there are meat to eat and corn to eat, which is probably the case.

Kane learned about the situation in Arnhem through information channels, but he has not personally seen it. When he knew this, he also understood the reluctance of the people of Arnhem to join Fort Asylum.

Fort Sanctuary is full of rules in the open and in the dark. Although the reward and punishment system is used to mobilize people's enthusiasm for work, but in this era of early public wisdom, when the ruler sticks his ass, the people will roughly know what shit he is going to do. The difference is only in conspiracy and Conspiracy, such as working for a boat ticket, the people are also forced by the general situation, to take refuge in Fort Sanctuary and work part-time, barely counting as what you want.

Most people belong to Shun Mao Donkey, and if they recognize it in their hearts, it's easy to talk about the rest. If the heart is tired and crooked, this small flame of longing and obsession will become more and more intense due to some trivial troubles, and become an evil fire.

The evil fire always needs to be vented, some people rely on some warm things to balance, some people vent it through exercise including bed exercise, some people will strengthen the destructive desire, and some people will hold it back.

The last one is the scariest, it will explode sooner or later, and it is often the kind that is caught off guard. It usually looks harmless, but suddenly it hurts others like crazy, or it actually develops bad habits behind the scenes, such as killing people. .

The people of Arnhem belonged to a group of people who reluctantly took advantage of the loopholes of the alliance's exploitation, coveted the little days that were not given but were still free, and refused to accept control.

Life is precious, love is more expensive, if it is for freedom... the freedom of the Arnhem people and the freedom expressed in this poem are not the same thing, but another thing, at least Kane believes that this is a 'degree' question.

The western cowboy temperament of the Arnhem people, in the eyes of an eastern ruler like Kane, just refuses to accept the kingship, and the time of stocking is too long, and the wildness is difficult to tame.

Of course, this is a bit of a joke. Kane is not an old-fashioned ruler. His mind is full of frivolity, and he feels that he is comprehensively nobler than others.

Kane is also from a grassroots background, and he can consider it from the perspective of the public. An important reason for his contempt for the people of Arnhem is actually caused by the different ideas bred by Eastern and Western cultures.

He couldn't understand the mentality that he would rather die than accept certain restrictions, even if these restrictions were relatively reasonable.

Against this background, when Kane met Sarah Kerrigan in Arnhem, he had a feeling of enlightenment.

It has to be said that the ability of a prophet is sometimes a kind of constraint. According to what Kane knew in advance, the reason why the "Sons of Keha" led by Mengsk can catch up with the "Feast" at a critical moment is entirely because he has a The strategic literacy that guerrilla-type anti-government organization leaders should have.

To put it bluntly, it is to know how to fish in troubled waters and take advantage of the chaos to fan the flames and loot, so that you can make a profit.

And analyzing Mengsk's tactical thinking, you will find that this person's gameplay is trendy and rogue. He uses the level 10 psionic unit Kerrigan as a special tactical force. The combat power is also far stronger than the general special tactical forces.

So, whether it's sabotage, kidnapping, or beheading and assassination, it's all fun. The 'Sons of Keha' can be strangled repeatedly, but grow stronger. An important reason is that Mengsk has Kerrigan, As for the big tiger of the Federation, there are too many omissions that cannot be taken care of.

The best anti-ghost unit is the ghost agent, but the ghost agent is not a Chinese cabbage, it is rare, and the related technology is still in the stage of continuous improvement, so the disability rate and fatality rate during the training period have always been high.

Fewer Ghost agents can only defend the main facilities of the main planet, and at most send a mobile force to see if they can take out Kerrigan and Mengsk.

It is conceivable that Mengsk has the hang of Kerrigan, which is more powerful than bases and tigers in the Earth era.

Arcturus Mengsk, according to Kane, is, in Eastern terms: a capable minister in a prosperous age, a traitor in a troubled time.

Under the negative influence of the family, he climbed to the rank of colonel in the army, and then resolutely became a professional prospector and ore miner.

It can be said that Arcturus proved his ability with real performance, and it was twice.

His family was assassinated and his homeland was destroyed. Mengsk led some survivors on the road of revenge.

But compared with the behemoth of the Federation, the son of Keha is too small, and Mengsk, who has worked in the army to be a colonel, knows this better than anyone else.

He knew that if he wanted to realize his path of revenge, he would not be able to take the usual path. Even if the heirs of those ancient families are constantly fighting big and small, they are already deeply bound to the institutional structure of the Federation. As long as the Federation does not collapse, those ancient families will not die.

So he put aside his family feud and absorbed Kerrigan.

Why is Kerrigan so devoted to Mengsk in the original historical line? Even if Mengsk deployed the psionic launcher to Tarsonis, Kerrigan felt that Mengsk would change his mind in the end, so he would not activate the psionic launcher and choose to continue the mission assigned by Mengsk?

It is because Mengsk knew that Kerrigan was killing his relatives and enemies, so he still chose to forgive.

This kind of forgiveness is not just a matter of pretending to be magnanimous. You must know that Kerrigan is a level 10 psyker, and she can naturally read the minds of people within the range.

Although she herself said: "People's consciousness is divided into shallow and deep, and I can only read the shallow."

But in fact, very few people can distinguish their own thoughts so clearly, otherwise Snape in the HP world would not have given special training to Harry Potter because of Occlumency, that is a wizard, Born with strong mental power, they all have special training.

As far as Kerrigan knew, Mengsk had no such training.

Mengsk did not accept it, he just knew some related theories in a general way, after all, he used to be a colonel, so he had certain opportunities to get in touch with relevant information.

What's really great about Mengsk is that he's the kind of guy who can successfully fool people even himself.

It was precisely because he successfully deceived himself first that Kerrigan was deceived.

To put it another way, the road to creation is made step by step, and Mengsk also took one step at a time. When he mastered the psionic transmitter, he realized that the opportunity to overthrow the Federation and even replace it had come.

And when the psionic launcher was successfully thrown into Tarsonis by the defeated Edmondo Duke, and Kerrigan confronted him face to face because of this operation, Mengsk realized that Kerrigan this The baby can be buried.

Not abandoning, but burying, not for family feud, but for secret. Kerrigan knows too much. After all, the son of Keha did a lot of dirty things in guerrilla in those years, and Kerrigan participated in almost every one of them. In other words, without Kerrigan, those plans would have been difficult to realize. , even if it is realized, the price will be extremely high, and Mengsk's small family can't afford it.

But that's all in the past. The psionic launcher attracted the swarm, and Tarsonis was wiped out, and the history of the Sons of Korhal also turned a new page. Mengsk needs a good reputation if he wants to receive the legacy of the Federation and stand out against the backdrop of the destruction of the Federation Head.

The son of Keha's fight with the Federation just made him famous, but the mouthpiece of the media is in the hands of the Federation, so his reputation is not good.

In this context, people like Kerrigan who know too much and are too righteous to compromise must die. Especially since Kerrigan was on good terms with Mike Liberty, a famous truth-telling journalist, and he couldn't live.

As for Jim Raynor, Mengsk didn't see that Raynor's Destiny Child was strong, maybe because he wasn't bad himself. For people like Renault, Mengsk met at least one platoon in half his life. When he was transported, he was a character. When he was transported, how many Tex were able to stop all charges and save Renault from prison?

That's why Mengsk doesn't think much of Renault, but the successful superior qualities he has further cultivated through his painstaking management of the son of Keha, let him instinctively grasp and use every available power.

It is precisely because of this that Liberty expresses emotion when evaluating Mengsk: "He is a cruel tyrant who does not allow anyone and anything to hinder his actions, but at the same time he is knowledgeable, wise and Fascinating. Even with his hologram, you feel like he is right there in front of you, listening carefully to every word you say. You even feel like you have weight in his eyes, a character, fighting for you It seemed important to him to agree with his point of view."

I have to say that compared with Mengsk, Renault, who seems to be full of intelligence and adaptability, and Kerrigan, who is called the queen by countless fans, can only be regarded as laborers, and Mengsk is the one who is laborious.

In the end, there was no other way, and Mengsk fell into the classic plot killing mode where the villain died of talking too much.

Kane's head was full of these things, so when he saw Kerrigan in Arnhem, he immediately had a comparison and relevant analysis.

He guessed that Arnhem might have secretly communicated with Mengsk about the song. In other words, colonial strongholds like Arnhem don’t mind making deals with Mengsk, and Mengsk never minds playing smuggling and building an intelligence station in order to support the son of Keha.

Therefore, the Prophet sometimes restrains his thinking, and the appearance of the son of Keha in the Sara Galaxy is not a temporary rush, but a very high degree of inevitability. This is why history has changed, and the son of Keha still comes to join in the fun.

"I thought our meeting would be delayed for a few months..." Facing Kerrigan, Kane said meaningfully...
