The first star of the empire, Korhal IV, the imperial capital Augustgrad.

Although Augustgrad's history is short, this great city has conquered all imperial people who have ever visited it.

The rolling mountainous borders of Augustgrad are expanding outward every day like breathing. The great river rushing through the radiation wasteland has now become a part of the city, with buildings stretching into the sky on both sides.

The skyscrapers and beautiful silver towers are brightly lit at night, reflecting the light on the river.

Unlike the glorious and elegant city of Tarsonis, which hides dirt and evil, Augustgrad has been the undisputed imperial capital of the Terran Empire since its establishment. This is not a city full of warm and pastel colors. Augustgrad

Stegler exudes the calm charm of a monarch and the coolness and majesty of a king.

Korhal is the center of the Tyranid Empire, and Augustgrad is the center of Korhal. Korhal is regarded as a symbol of the Tyranid human race rising again from the scorched ruins, and even gradually evolved into a

Faith, and Augustegrad interprets human wisdom and infinite power, representing a race that has experienced suffering and war and has once again regained its confidence.

Seen from the air, Augustgrad's spiderweb-like train tracks are like the fine blood vessels of the entire city. Every day, thousands of commuters take the train from one end of Augustgrad to the other.

.

For imperial people of different eras, Korhal and Augustgrad had very different meanings.

For children who were born and raised in Augustgrad, this city is just a strange but familiar hometown.

"Aha! Augustgrad! I'm home!"

The golden dome of the palace sparkles in the sun, like a pyramid made of gold, and the spiers that dominate the skyline seem to support the entire gray sky. Augustgrad may be the ideal empire of Augustus the Great

The capital is a modern metropolis composed of countless steel towers supporting the sky and magnificent giant buildings.

A transport ship with the Cerberus Cerberus logo slowly landed on the top apron of the Augustgrad Palace, and the landing gear opened as soon as the landing hatch was opened.

Then, a queen wearing white gloves walked out gracefully, stretched out her hand and pulled out a wheelchair from behind. Lying on the wheelchair was a fat brain worm, lying in an enchanting posture.

The brainworm raised its head arrogantly, and only the queen bowed in salute.

Both the brain worm and the queen have many traces of mechanical modifications. The former is to make themselves more comfortable, and the latter is to kill better.

"Master Alpha, welcome back. When are you leaving?" Rosa Morales, the palace maid, put her foot on the wheelchair and bent down to stare at the brainworm.

Rosa Morales is wearing a velvet black waitress uniform and a lace skirt with the royal emblem pinned on it. Objectively speaking, Morales is also very beautiful and does not need to fight in power armor in this section.

Over the years, her white skin and slender legs have been fully revealed.

Morales was originally a medical lieutenant in the Earth Expeditionary Force, and was later selected into the palace by Emperor Augustus. Originally Morales was just a palace doctor, and later became a waiter around the emperor.

This matter is strange. Kings in ancient times used this method to select their future concubines. But since Queen Sarah didn't have any objections, it was hard for others to say anything.

"Go back to Augustgrad for a small meeting and leave in two days." Brainworm's evil little eyes glanced sideways at Moralis: "Auguste called me from Kuskovo with just one word.

When I came back, I didn’t give any reason. This emperor treats his loyal ministers like dogs and treats them like dogs. He is really wanton and will defeat the country sooner or later."

After years of baptism and the polishing of Xel'Naga artifacts, Royal Brain Worm Alpha has become more and more calm. Unless pressed, he no longer dares to openly call Augustus the Dog Emperor.

Now the unlucky guy Sass is on duty to charge the Xel'Naga artifact, otherwise it would be the one who would suffer.

In addition, there are many human brain worms in the palace that you don't dare to offend. This dangerous Earth woman in front of you is very difficult to offend. It is said that Moralis gave the old master a hard shot when she was in Char, so what's the point?

There is nothing she dare not do.

"Say less, the emperor is angry now, be careful he puts you in jail." Morales' voice was very gentle, but her words always contained a sharp knife: "This time, don't expect to beg for mercy.

You can escape."

"I have heard about some recent things." Brainworm shrank his neck and did not dare to say anything more: "The empire is now purging traitors from the empire, and people are imprisoned for crimes every day. In the end, all the prisons in the empire have been

Overwhelmed, we could only temporarily mobilize prison ships and park them above the city."

"No matter when, human beings can never stop fighting among themselves."

The great purge had just ended and it did not last long. The Queen just made a cut in the empire's growing body and released a stream of pus and blood. Even so, people in the imperial capital were inevitably panicked because no one wanted to be implicated.

"This is the disadvantage of individuals having free will. Augustus should implant Cerberus engineering control nerves into all human beings." Once again, the Cerebrate expressed his opinions on how to better rule the empire.

"This is so anti-human," Morales said.

"In terms of results, this is the most effective approach." This brainworm is very similar to humans, but in some aspects it has completely opposite views. For example, it never sees the need to remember those warriors who sacrificed their lives for the clan.

"Well, I don't care about the empire at all. What does this have to do with me? No one wants to see Augustus kicked off the throne more than me." It glanced at Moralis: "Of course, if he begs

It would be a different matter if I help him."

"Forget about him, where is my little Louis?"

"If you want to go to Louise, she is currently studying ballet with a tutor hired by the royal family." Morales said.

When the brain worm heard this, he looked at Zagara, the worm queen next to him, and the latter nodded immediately.

"Louis doesn't need to study, she just needs to learn how to dominate the insect swarm. Now at her age, she should eat, drink and have fun." It then shouted: "Take me to her quickly while there is still time."

"I'm not your subordinate." Morales snorted.

"I beg you to take me to find her." Brainworm raised his head high.

".If you scare her, the queen will definitely chop you into pieces." Morales accepted this trick and turned around and walked away.

"What does this mean? I treat her as my daughter." Brainworm was furious and bared his teeth.

"The queen has warned you not to let brainworms take care of children." Moralis said, "Who asked you to teach your children to swear?"

"I changed it a long time ago, I changed it a long time ago." The brainworm said weakly.

This brainworm has never shown too much affection for a certain human, but Princess Louise is an exception. This seems to be related to her naturally high "Zerg affinity". Facts have shown that Louise Mengsk's innate psychic powers can even

Let the zerg see her as one of their kind.

Moralis did not answer, but just led the way. The brainworm drove the wheelchair propeller and followed closely, followed by Zagara who walked lightly.

Compared with when the brainworm left, the Augustgrad Palace has become different again, with many precious works of art added to it.

Passing through the gate behind the apron is the reception hall of the palace. The reception hall has parquet floors and a high mural ceiling. On one side is an entire floor-to-ceiling window, from which you can directly overlook the city of Augustgrad.

panorama, the other side decorated with mirrors and candlesticks embellished with gold leaf.

A young man wearing the uniform of the Empire's Stillling Military Academy walked towards him. His long, silky golden hair and gray eyes that seemed to contain storms were impressive.

"It turns out to be Mr. Alpha." Prince Valerian was stunned for a moment when he saw the Cerebrate and the Queen, and his eyelids couldn't stop twitching.

"Hello." Brainworm glanced at him.

Valerian is the cousin of Princess Louise. As a member of the royal family, he has received the best training as a matter of course. Although he seems a bit boastful and idealistic due to lack of tempering, he has shown outstanding character and character.

ability.

As the oldest royal member of this generation, Valerian has well inherited his mother's beauty and the sharp gray eyes of his father's family, and has also attracted a lot of attention from the outside world.

At this time, Valerian stretched out his hand to shake hands with the Cerebrate opposite him but felt something was wrong. The scene was a little awkward for a moment.

Fortunately, the brainworm still stretched out its tail in disgust: "Don't mess with me, kid, I hate people from the Mengsk family."

"But I am proud to be a member of the Mengsk family." Valerian could only smile and walked to the other side to prepare to leave for the academy.

"Valerian is loved by Emperor Augustus, and he is also the heir of Prince Arcturus. As a royal, he is not arrogant, and treats others with humility and courtesy. Everyone who has met him dislikes him." Mo.

Lalith said to Brainworm: "But you hate him."

"This kid wants to be like his uncle, but that's it. How did he know that Augustus Mengsk was a sadist." Brainworm still has lingering fears when he thinks of those painful memories.

Augustus Mengsk used him to experiment on the Xel'Naga artifact Nova Impact, which was a really painful memory. Later, Augustus actually said that this was all to wash away the Xel'Naga Amon's resistance to insects.

The influence of the group's will is euphemistically called cleaning up and retraining. In the end, it still has to thank him. It is really unreasonable.

"Can't deny it," Morales said.

With that said, Morales walked into a cross aisle in the palace and saw a little girl wearing a white tutu flying out, really like a free white swan.

This girl has long red hair and a pair of beautiful big gray eyes. The girl has a beautiful neck, delicate cheekbones and bud-like lips. Her steps are light and calm. She is already a beautiful lady.

"Alpha!" The girl looked very happy. The strange thing was that she seemed to have known that the brainworm was back.

"Angel" Royal Brainworm burst into tears.

That is Louise, the only daughter of Emperor Augustus and Queen Sarah. Now she is more than four years old and is the darling of the entire palace. And not only humans, Princess Louise can also be loved by protoss and zerg.

.

The royal brainworm was overjoyed and jumped out of the wheelchair and rushed towards Princess Louise, but he hit an invisible wall and became dizzy.

"Dark Templar! You are so haunted!" As soon as the Royal Cerebrate showed an angry look on his face, Louis ran over and rubbed the Cerebrate Dog's head with his soft little hands. The latter immediately beamed with joy.

"caught you!"

In the eyes of the protoss, humans are also a strange race. They are often much more innocent when they are young, but become completely different as they grow older.

"Louis, you're already so old before you know it." It rubbed Louis and made her giggle: "Time really flies by. For humans, time always flies by."

Seeing Princess Louis smile, even Moralis with a cold expression smiled.

Louise is like a ray of sunshine, and her smile always warms people's hearts. This seems to be related to her incredible psychic talent. When the telepathy is extremely powerful, it can affect others.

She is loved by millions and is the future of the empire. There is always no shortage of toys or playmates.

"I'm not in the palace, you must be very lonely, Louis." The brainworm whimpered, while Princess Louis stroked it like a human. This scene was very touching.

"Dehaka has been accompanying the princess recently. It seems to be trying to teach a human child how to hunt essence." Moralis said.

"Dehaka? What qualifications does that despicable primitive insect have to get close to Lewis? It only has the essence in its mind!" Hearing this, the brain worm jealously bit through a golden wolf statue at the end of the aisle. This ferocious brain worm

A set of sharp teeth can even chew larvae raw as snacks, and it is no problem to bite through steel.

"Lewis" a soft call came from a distance, and everyone bowed slightly in response, even the brainworm and the queen were no exception.

Queen Sarah Kerrigan came in and had just attended a brief meeting, but she did not seek the opinions of the participants but directly ordered them. The Queen's decisive and cold image has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and no one dares to question her anymore.

authority.

The solemn queen wore a white silk robe with gold trim, an elegant train, and a gorgeous crown on her head. She walked in, and everyone could clearly see her beautiful expression.

Louis ran towards his mother again, turned around and hid behind her skirt.

"Alpha, you're back." Kerrigan looked at the Cerebrate.

"My supreme queen!" Brainworm immediately crawled to Kerrigan's crystal-decorated high-heeled shoes, bowing to the ground and not daring to speak.

In the past, the Cerebrate didn't take Augustus seriously simply because his psychic power was not as strong as his own, but in front of Kerrigan, it didn't even dare to move.

"Alpha" Kerrigan pointed to the statue next to her that was bitten by brainworms.

"Here." The brainworm was frightened.
