Chapter 239 Heading to Terra
Chapter 239 Heading to Terra
The bombs disappeared, and so did 1313 and William.
Necron observation teams confirmed that the enemy had disappeared into the warp.
"Is the enemy dead?"
"Report, severely disrupted, unable to track enemy."
The low-level general in charge of this pursuit was a little angry. Unable to determine death and unable to determine the location were the worst results. What happened in the subspace!
At the right moment, the Overlord's communication lighted up again, "Have you killed all those bugs? We are about to set off."
"Yes, we activated the Apocalypse Spear and completed the mission." The leader activated the Silence Agreement, and the immortals beside him were unable to speak.
"Come back immediately."
He modified the war record, changing the enemy's disappearance to death.
The overlord needs an efficient subordinate who cannot have a record of failure.
The boulder teleported into the Sickle-class Reapers, and the Necron fleet disappeared. They completed their mission, wiped out the invaders (greenskins), and immediately responded to the Silent King's call to go beyond the galaxy.
......
Sisyphus was kicked out of the cannon-exploding mecha. He felt an unstoppable force suddenly appear on his butt. Then the world spun around, water splashed everywhere, and he smashed into the great lake below like a cannonball. middle.
The Apocalypse Spear vaporized the entire strike cruiser, and the subspace rift created by the explosion of the void shield module sucked all the wreckage into it. There were no bones left on the entire ship, and only scattered fragments fell into the lake.
The expected "tsunami" did not appear, the greenskins were killed, the Necrons left, and only humans and the Nurgle demon army looked at each other.
When Sisyphus walked up from the bottom of the lake, the war was at its last step. Only the last of the seven Nurgle demon armies was left. The Nurgle army led by Captain Golmud was trying to pollute the granary.
Sisyphus temporarily became the leader of this force. In anger, he directly used the evil god mode of the pumpkin hammer to snipe and kill the Golmud captain. In the strange golden flames, the demon parasitic in the Golmud captain's body fled in panic. flesh.
Its passage from the warp into reality was suddenly burned down, and the barriers of reality pressed toward it. Of course, it couldn't wait until it left, and the roaring Primaris warriors tore everything into pieces.
Sisyphus fell to his knees, and command of the entire planet was returned to the local governor.
Soon, the intensity of ray bursts in the real world dropped enough to support the safe navigation of imperial warships. The first force to come here was the battleship of Red Torrent.
Antony's ships came to pick up William's soldiers.
The original plan was for William to serve as acting Chapter Master, but according to Imperial records, Anthony was the Chapter Master of the Red Torrent, so they tried to make William the official successor to Chapter Master in Imperial records.
Hey, the first generation chapter leader Yifeng (dead), the second generation Anthony (in Fearless), the third generation William.
When they were sailing in the subspace, they received a distress signal from the Astropath, so they rushed towards the world of Badab II.
It's a pity that they arrived a step late, and the world in front of them was just a broken ruins burning with war.
The hive city has not been breached, but mortals are still required not to go out. The outside world is full of large craters smashed by space stations and battleship fragments. Chaos believers appear in scattered towns from time to time. The personnel of the state religion serve as the main purifiers.
The chaplain (political commissar) of William's army, Zoligatu, temporarily served as leader and joined Antony's troops.
He did not have enough prestige to lead all the forces on the Imperial side, and although Sisyphus had enough prestige, he was the Primaris think tank of the Scythe of the Emperor, so it was obviously impossible to meet with Guilliman to participate in the ceremony of glory.
The other leaders on our side in the Maelstrom, Tiemian and Leon, are naturally even less likely.
In this regard, Sisyphus said something to the confused Antonine warriors.
"You are no longer recruits, battle brothers, don't expect to be illuminated, shine!"
The soldiers of the Antonine Department left. It was very rare that they did not listen to Sisyphus's words. They were preparing to go to Tau to find Yifeng to make the final decision.
In the 240th year of the war group's history, across the world, we have completed the annexation of the forces of the Caliman family. While acquiring a large amount of territory, we have also encountered more and more alien invasions.
While the Astartes fought bravely, Yifeng also set out to form our own mortal army, a true force with strong independent combat capabilities.
This unit is based on the troops in the world of Sorok, with mixed arms and deployed in combined brigades.
The most important combat force is the armored corps that inherited the Emperor's Baneblade tank cluster from the Red Torrent Mortal Auxiliary Army. We have very few heavy artillery, and tanks generally serve directly as fire cover.
Next is the "cavalry unit" that is bound to the Kroot beast.
Strictly speaking, this cannot be considered a cavalry. After the Kroot, a race affiliated with the Tau, ate strange things, they evolved into a Tyrannosaurus rex-like beast about the size of a super-heavy tank. Its skin is so thick that it needs to be worn. Armor shells and anti-vehicle bombs can cause effective damage.
The advantage is obvious. It runs much faster than a tank, can quickly rush into the enemy, and take the lead in breaking through the enemy's lines. It is very powerful and can carry artillery on its back, but its accuracy is not very good. Most of them use weapons with a large killing range to eliminate the disadvantage of lack of accuracy.
Next is the normal infantry, including assault battalions, reconnaissance battalions, guard battalions and other small branches.
The Air Force is generally affiliated with the Navy's space battleship hangar, but we do not distinguish between the Navy and the Astra Militarum. This force incorporates a large number of Ambition-class cruisers, Havoc-class frigates and Wanderer-class merchant ships (used as transport ships), and has a A large number of auxiliary aircraft stolen from the Caliman family.
This mixed force launched an independent battle, known as the Unity Army. It accepted the participation of people from any world and advocated that everyone unite to defend the emperor's sacred territory.
With this force to share the pressure, Yifeng began to strengthen the combat effectiveness of the Primaris warrior army.
Christina completed the design drawing requested by Yifeng, the latest design of the anti-psionic armor.
This type of armor is particularly large. It is not an armor-within-armor model like the Centurion. The backpack of the power armor cannot provide enough power. The new anti-psionic armor is an independent armor that uses the backpack of the tank energy core as the energy supply. . Size is between Terminator and Dauntless.
It is planned to use adamantine for the shell. This part cannot be implemented until the space manta technology arrives, but other parts are already being produced at full capacity.
The internal titanium meningeal fluid has accumulated a sufficient amount.
The core part was originally planned to use black stone material, but because it was too rare, the lining of the normal armor was used instead.
In terms of firepower, I originally wanted to deploy the Ion Storm, but since it was difficult to replace the overheated barrel of such a large armor, the arms still used the configuration of plasma guns and sacred power fists. The chest and shoulders are equipped with explosive bombs and small missiles to increase firepower. Compared with weapons of the same size, the firepower will definitely be a little worse, but...there are no weapons of the same size.
What are the benefits of this kind of armor? Don't worry about the machine soul.
What machine soul does anti-psionic power require? The little devil can't beat me, and the big devil's machine soul is useless. This armor doesn't use intelligent control AI, so let's be conservative, okay?
Yifeng is very much looking forward to the era in seven years when the space manta ray technology will be redeemed and then a large number of battle armors will be built to dominate the world. Christina is also looking forward to it, but not this time.
Langjuxu is prosperous, and the laboratory is like purgatory.
With so many worlds under Yifeng's control, it is natural to find a lot of untouchables, but Yifeng did not receive most of the news because after the reports on those who found untouchables were submitted, they were intercepted by a person with a higher status. down.
Stuart took away some of the untouchable people who were not suitable to be trained as Silent Sisters. For example, before they were discovered, they were insulted as plague gods and had their legs broken, were beaten by everyone, or were exiled to the wilderness mountains and forests. The man who was severely wounded by the beast.
This is not uncommon. Mortals will feel extremely uncomfortable when staying next to the Sisters of Silence. In severe cases, they will die. It is common for untouchables to be killed before being discovered by official forces.
These people were sent to Christina's laboratory and brutally killed, and their bones were collected as materials for a powerful armor.
The other part of the skeletons came from digging graves. For those untouchable people who were killed by people, few kind-hearted people dug their graves. At most, they were buried in mass graves, but they were not completely missing. One was found in Yifeng After the world is over, a complete planetary exploration will usually be carried out to prevent some strange things from being buried under our earth. At this point, if you are extremely lucky, the psychic detector will find some bones.
When the extremely small probability is placed in thousands of worlds, the probability becomes very high.
Christina looked at the dozens of incomplete skeletons that had just been processed in front of her. She could roughly make the strongest armor for Yifeng. It was made of adamantine shell, the bones of untouchables and black stone materials. Psychic armor.
A little bit closer, Christina was a little happy, it seemed like she didn't need to kill anyone anymore.
During routine contact, she sent Stuart a text message, which was hidden in normal communications. Only after decoding can we understand what she said.
Our Archbishop of the Mechanicus finally had a short break. While lamenting that Situ Val, a medical student, was so cruel, he monitored the Tau massacre production line next door.
.......
Situ Val received the text message, and just as the people from Anthony's department arrived, he also started to take action.
"Squeak~" The door of the living room was pushed open, and Yifeng was talking with the brothers who had come from afar.
"What's the matter, Situ Val, what's the matter?"
"I learned about the honor ceremony. Come and have a look."
"Yes, Situ Val, we need to decide to select a warrior with sufficient leadership skills to participate in Terra's honor ceremony. There are still many candidates. Do you want to take a look?" Yifeng took out a piece of paper. He handed the pledge document to Situ Val.
But Situ Val did not take it, "Brother Yifeng, I think you should go by yourself."
"??? Situ Val, it's not time yet."
"The time has come, Brother Yifeng. The glory our battle group has gained this time will bring many rewards. Are you sure you don't want to go? Even if you spend some time to get more, it will be an astronomical level of resources."
Yifeng tilted his head and glanced at Situ Val, isn't this my trick? Do you have to let me go to Terra?
"Stuvar, my current state is not suitable for the past. Untouchable shields are not allowed to be carried in some places."
"Then, you and I will go together. I will serve as the so-called Chapter Master. You can hide. The most important thing for us is to protect the safety of the Black Stone materials that Guilliman promised."
Oh oh oh! Yifeng understood that that thing was indeed very precious. The Chaos warriors might not want it, but those who were just rebels and had not been corrupted would definitely want it.
"I understand, but there is no need for you to take risks, Brother Stuart."
"Yi Feng, I am an Astartes, now a Primaris Astartes. I can also fight for the Emperor instead of staying next to the recruit tank every day."
Yifeng could clearly feel a murderous aura, and the sharp scalpel seemed to fly from unexpected places.
"So what's going on here..."
"Xiao Lan is here, Fulu Shi is here, and even Anos and the Great Think Tank are here. What are you afraid of?"
Yifeng pondered for a while and agreed to the request, not because there was no better plan, but because he was curious about what Situ Waer wanted to do since it was rare for him to ask to go out.
Situ Val smiled vaguely, I will show you around the Phalanx.
The Phalanx is the monastery of the Imperial Fists Chapter, and is a super fortress of the same level as our People's Light battleship.
The Imperial Fists and its sub-chapters will hold a Blade Festival every hundred years (which may be postponed or postponed), and each chapter will select a chapter champion to go and compete in martial arts (the non-lethal kind). Rogal Dorn hopes to use this form to deepen the connection between the various chapters and prevent them from falling apart.
The victor gains the right to designate the venue for the next contest and gain custody of the Blade of Dorne, a sacred relic.
The last champion was a rare one, a strong man from the Imperial Fists. Normally, the game would take place on the edge of a major war that had just ended, but he set the venue for the game on the Sanjin.
After so many years of tinkering, the Phalanx finally returned to the orbit of Terra and resumed its duties of guarding Terra. In order to commemorate this great moment, this Blade Festival is particularly grand, and many warbands will participate in this event.
.....
The newly repaired Eternal Mountain set off to meet up with the soldiers of Antony's Department.
The Red Torrent warriors scattered like stars in the sky began to gather together, and some warriors serving in the Death Watch also moved closer to Yifeng and the others in the name of "rebuilding the battle group", gradually gathering more than 300 elite veterans.
The Eternal Mountain has returned to its former liveliness. Most of the soldiers have never seen Yifeng, and they are very curious about this oldest chapter leader.
The battle barge bustled to Terra.
Along the way, they were naturally subjected to countless interrogations. This was the Eternal Mountain, a battleship of the Will of the Storm Chapter that had not been recorded in the records for a long time. (The Red Torrent Antony Department did not report that it owned this battleship)
Our response to this is simple, we got lost and we just found it again recently.
After thirty-six reviews, the Red Torrent representative finally arrived at Holy Terra five days before the Glory Ceremony.
Yifeng looked at the planet in front of him in shock.
Magnificent, an unimaginably grand hive.
The sea water on Terra has dried up. There is no agriculture in this world. It is an absolute political planet, a hive planet.
The soil here is barren and the atmosphere has long been polluted, turning it into a "planetary shell" composed of exhaust gases. Mountains have been leveled, leaving only the Himalayas standing tall in the world.
The majestic and what can be called "continuous" hive city buildings accommodate one hundred trillion people. The entire planet is like a steel maze composed of super buildings tens of kilometers high (the hundreds of kilometers underground are not included). Many institutions of the empire The headquarters, royal palace and Holy See are dotted on it.
(Under the Antarctic ice cap is the headquarters of the Inquisition.)
This is not a hive city, it is a hive city.
Countless ships come and go, pilgrims from all over the galaxy, food transported, important systems, products of the Mechanicum...
The palace....cannot be seen.
We can only watch from afar. No ships are allowed to fly in the space orbit above the palace.
When the Eternal Mountain arrived at the predetermined location, the soldiers were led to a fixed area.
Most of the northern hemisphere is the palace. The Astartes who have made great contributions originally had a slight possibility of entering the palace to meet the emperor. However, due to the existence of the trap created by Ms. Euton, this possibility may also be in vain.
If nothing else, the Eternal Gate will be the end point of this ceremony, maybe a military parade? Or Guilliman's impassioned speeches, accompanied by their photos sent across the galaxy to boost the morale of the troops.
The most luxurious banquet Yifeng had ever seen here...he couldn't attend because the shield would make many executives uncomfortable or even die.
The first time I came to Terra, I squatted in the room and couldn't move around. gas.
——————————————————————————————————
A not-so-Mechanicum fireship came under attack.
An avatar of Belisarius Cawl was located on the ship. He exhausted all his abilities and found that he could not send any messages. The place seemed to be completely sealed.
Caul was surprised. This technology was so rare that only Necron or human relics from the Golden Age could achieve similar effects.
Skitarii ran from cabin to cabin and were torn apart one by one.
The shield infantry's laser guns were snapped, solid defensive shields were shattered, and the detectors were destroyed by bursts of beams without even seeing the enemy.
The Rangers were wiped out by the beams of explosive weapons, leaving only charred mechanical organs.
The guardian of the Skitarii held an arc hammer and struck hard at the enemy in front of him. The light of the electric current illuminated the enemy's armor. In the eight-thorn circle, two skulls were engraved in the hourglass-shaped emblem. Ancient and sacred.
"Dreadwing! Haven't you already..."
"Bang~" The huge body fell.
The First Legion has no secrets.
The Dark Angels fought all the way into the core area. All defenses were removed from the most magnificent hall. There were only twelve heads in the middle, half machine and half human body. Omnisiah's blessings were engraved on the sides, and cables and pipes were intertwined. Even the most experienced technical sergeants were at a loss as to where to start.
Surrounded by high platforms rising in a ring, each level has powerful defensive forts, which have now become a pile of scrap metal.
Black walls and black angels, there are secrets in the darkness.
The electric current buzzed, and different lights shone in the eyes of the twelve heads. Belisarius Caul's voice came from the twelve heads. The sound was completely absorbed by the black wall. Only those who stood in the ring could Call's answer could only be heard from the middle of the high platform.
"Dark Angel Terror Wing, one of the six wings and one of the four broken wings. Once deployed, the enemy will be completely annihilated. He is proficient in the use of fear emotions. He has mastered almost all relic technologies. He has a large number of technical sergeants, pharmacists, fearless and a small number of Think tank…”
"Enough." An Astartes came out. He was an ordinary Astartes. All Dreadwings were ordinary Astartes. They did not trust Caul's Primaris technology.
Several technical sergeants connected the connecting tubes of some instruments to the mechanical backpacks they carried, trying to plunder Caul's knowledge.
"Give up, no one can break through my insurance measures." One head said so, and the remaining eleven heads kept chanting binary hymns to appease the machine soul and resist the invasion of "foreign enemies".
"We need your skills."
"You don't have authorization... Haha, why don't you talk about why the Dread Wings still exist? The Dark Angel announced that the Dread Wings have been completely disbanded. You guys..."
"Then you should realize that when you meet us, you will never have the chance to leave the arms of death again."
The dimensional lock has completely blocked this area, and any existing technology in the empire cannot send information out.
The leader of the Dark Angel looked gloomy. The technical sergeants dismantled the clone of Caul in front of them, but did not get the information they wanted.
.......
The allure of the Armor of Destiny is very great. A technology that allows the primordial body in a stagnant position to move. As long as it is paired with the Eldar's holy relic, the Sword of the Crone, the sleeping primordial body can stand up again and return to the world. world.
The Lion Primarch sleeping in the Stone Fortress also needs this technology.
The Dark Angels do not care whether they are loyal to friendly attacks. Like most cold and cruel Inquisitors, they will never be stingy with necessary evils. (Killing one person can protect ten people, then kill him, regardless of whether he is innocent or not. They fight for the survival of mankind and will not care about individual losses, even if the number is staggering)
"Destroy it."
The entire Mechanicus firepower ship was completely destroyed, and the technical sergeants ensured that all useful supplies on the warship were transferred. Then the bare warship turned into a space hulk and began to drift.
