Chapter 146 Something strange seems to have sneaked in
Yifeng and several soldiers followed Christina and headed towards the front line. Now the psychic energy in front of them has escaped and all the instruments have failed. They don't know what is going on.
On the defense line, the enemy was frantically attacking the Adeptus Mechanicus' front line as if they were beaten to death. The Mechanicus Priests on duty today were really in bad luck. The barrels of their guns were smoking, and they did not dare to cease fire to cool down.
"Emergency call, the QH103-132 defense line is in emergency. There are too many enemies. Our firepower is overloaded. The defense line is expected to be breached in 231 seconds. Please request emergency support!"
The only response he received was endless electronic noise.
Damn it, I don’t want to be buried here.
The Adeptus Mechanicus only sees data, fighting will, and unyielding spirit, forget it, they can't produce a single round of ammunition with these.
The battle continued for a few more minutes, but the number of enemies did not decrease at all. On the contrary, there was a faint tendency to increase. The enemies rushed out of the narrow cracks and continuously attacked the Mechanicus' positions.
"Beep~Beep~Beep~Ammunition inventory level one alarm, ammunition is less than 20%!" A bright red prompt sounded in front of the Mechanic Priest's eyes,
I can't wait any longer. If I wait any longer, I won't be able to go back.
"Record: Groove, record something, run quickly."
The Mechanic Priest took out a red card and inserted it into the body of the large Skitarii who had been fighting beside him.
The Skitarii turned on the violent mode and spoke frankly. The front breastplate was violently flicked away, revealing a large number of missiles hidden in it.
For a moment, thousands of bullets were fired, and then the Skitarii showed his sword and rushed towards the enemy who was knocked upside down by the explosion.
At this time, the Mechanic Priest had almost reached the next line of defense.
Hurry up, hurry up, we will soon reach the next line of defense.
At this moment, the passage that had been patrolled countless times seemed extremely long.
corner! The last corner! immediately.......
What kind of thing is blocking the road? Damn it, who helped Chao Lao clear the sewer in his previous life? The rat reincarnated and blocked it tightly. I am really... Hi, Archbishop!
Christina unfolded her huge figure and firmly blocked the entrance of the passage.
The Mechanic Priest ran back from hell to heaven in one fell swoop, feeling confident instantly.
"Stand behind me."
The Archbishop made way for a small hole, big enough for the Mechanic-Priest to bend through.
Yifeng looked strange on the side.
what does this mean? Do you have to bend down when you should bend down? This archbishop retains a lot of humanity. A bit vindictive....
Next, is Christina's personal firepower show.
When the Mechanic Priest withdrew behind the Archbishop, he found that a large number of additional armor and mounted weapons were still being transported forward from the rear, and were exquisitely installed on the Archbishop's body.
In the eyes of this priest, the archbishop in front of him is no less than the goddess in his dream. The light of Omnisiah shines brightly on her body.
All the cherished secrets hidden at the bottom of the box appeared. The Archbishop's figure was over fifteen meters tall, occupying the entire position.
It's a pity that she is destined to play the piano to the cow.
Yifeng was not a technician. In his eyes, he saw many gun barrels being transported. The small aircraft grabbed a lot of metal blocks of different colors and combined them onto Christina. Then the archbishop became A bloated, cluttered, clanking heap of machinery.
The firepower is still very reliable.
In the next hour of the Ark Watch, Christina fired an extremely exaggerated amount of ammunition, which stunned Yi Feng, who always relied on fire coverage as his combat concept.
Finally, Yifeng used his poor technical terminology to make an insightful summary.
"What a fierce bitch."
........
The offensive of the Chaos believers never subsided, and as time went by, the situation gradually confused Yifeng.
Why has this rich psychic energy not dissipated yet? What has the enemy done? Why are these Chaos believers rushing towards our guns like greenskins?
"Bah~ba~ Can you hear me? Chapter leader, can you hear me?"
"Can hear, speak."
"Most of the Mechanicus' personnel are on board. The transportation of precious metals has basically been completed and the evacuation can begin."
"receive."
"Bishop Christina, we can retreat."
"It's a pity that these ammunition can't be taken away, so let's just blow it up here."
The firepower fortress composed of a huge mechanical pile was still firing, but the metal plate at the rear began to fall off.
Christina "gracefully" opened the "back door" of the "Firebase" and walked out.
"Archbishop, this thing can fire automatically!"
Yifeng admitted that he was really shocked.
Isn't this equivalent to you wearing a lot of clothes, going out for a walk, and then you unzip the clothes, you get out of the clothes, and the remaining clothes go shopping by themselves.
"The mystery of the God of All Machines never ends."
The two were the last personnel to retreat to the Eternal Mountain. At this time, the battle barge was already filled to the brim, and the mortal auxiliary army was already too busy.
Chaos believers were still pouring out of the mechanical door crazily, but they had no chance. The spiritual energy that seemed to be materialized suddenly shrank towards the center, and a large number of Chaos believers were sucked towards the center.
The followers of Chaos never wanted to rush in and kill the Adeptus Mechanicus, they just wanted to escape.
A great Daemon of Tzeentch descended upon the altar of the Chaos Cult and devoured countless blasphemous creations.
My name is: Asloken Vendro.
I am the devourer of wisdom.
What I see is what I eat, what I eat is what I gain.
The characteristic of this big demon is that it can obtain all the knowledge and memories in its mind by eating people or other things. Astartes can also do this, but the big demon has no upper limit of knowledge reserves, and it does not use darkness. The Holy Eucharist will one day have a store of knowledge that exceeds that of any creation.
ah? You ask why it doesn't look so smart...
Maybe it's the aftereffects of pretending to be the Appetite Demon before and going undercover on Slaanesh's side.
It's favorite to raid the Forge World, now...
"Boom~~"
A huge explosion occurred at the edge of the subspace vortex, and the burst of light instantly overwhelmed Asloken Vendro.
Oh, there are fireworks to watch before the meal.
The great devil thought so.
An Ark Mechanic, not quite a feast, but passable. I'm going to start eating.
Ah~~~~
"Boom~~~"
In line with the principle of blowing it up if you can't take it away, those simple creations and heavy mechanical creations that were not taken away were all buried with ammunition and bombs that were not intended to be taken away.
A spectacular series of explosions completely shattered the entire Mechanical Ark.
After coming back to his senses, Asloken Vendro watched helplessly as his delicious meal turned into meaningless fragments.
We don't know exactly what's going on there. The Eternal Mountain has already rushed into the vortex.
The battleship swayed, and after being scolded by Yifeng, Baars stood behind the navigator depressedly, sighing slightly.
Fortunately, Yifeng was not in front of the navigator at this time. The two untouchables who had just boarded the ship were now protecting the navigators from the fierce storm.
The ship was filled with Adeptus Mechanicus personnel, and although they all walked past the Untouchables when they boarded the ship, there was no guarantee that they had not been corrupted.
Investigation is a complicated matter.
Rogier, who was wandering around the battleship to help, looked solemn at this time, quietly put on his helmet, and connected to Yifeng's personal channel.
"Brother Yifeng, there is a soldier who smells wrong."
"The smell is wrong? Oh, I remember, Volus, right? He was possessed by a demon but he broke free. I asked him to find a priest. To be reasonable, he can join the exorcist group, haha ....."
"It's not him, it's Esposito, and his smell has completely changed."
"...The brother who just served? Was he corrupted by Chaos?"
"No, the stench of Chaos is too strong. Definitely not. I can't be mistaken. Esposito's smell has completely changed. He is completely different."
"Do you have any clue? Brother Rogier."
"I encountered this situation before. When I was in the Wild Wolf Company, I was pretending to be an Alpha scumbag."
"........"
"I understand, I will call him... No, call their team in the A12 conference room, and say it is a special mission strategy meeting."
There are only two legions in the world that cannot be invaded by the Alpha Legion. Although the 20th legion is good at concealing and assassinating in disguise, they cannot break through the tight inner ring organization of the Dark Angels legion and the keen sense of smell of the Space Wolves.
"No, no need, I'm right behind him."
Esposito was walking in the corridor with the other team members. He did not show any abnormality and followed the vice-captain as usual, but his heart was now extremely anxious.
Isn't this a sub-group of Iron Hands? I am definitely not mistaken, the gene seed must be the son of Ferrus Manus, why is there a hairy thing here! Why are the Space Wolves here?
There is a corner ahead. A portrait of Chagatai Khan hangs at the corner. The white light softly touches the soldiers who have returned in triumph. After turning the corner, there is a lounge where the soldiers can rest together and chat. , find someone to arrange a duel.
Alpha's assassin understood that the last moment had arrived, and he had to do something the moment the deputy captain made a turn.
Rogier was quicker than he expected.
Without warning, Rogier took action.
"The scum of chaos shall die."
Soon enough, the claws in Rogier's hands suddenly lit up and stabbed Alpha in the heart.
Alpha's reaction was not unpleasant. He turned around and raised his elbow in one go. The knife hidden in the secret place slipped into his hand at some point, slightly jamming Rogier's power claw, trying to deflect its claw.
However, he overestimated himself too much.
"哐~"
Alpha was slapped directly on the wall by Rogier. Although he avoided the vital point, he was still seriously injured.
This Alpha is not a Primaris warrior, not to mention that Chaos seems to have not corrupted a few Primaris warriors.
"Rogier, what are you doing!"
"Esposito."
Everyone was shocked and took action to stop the fight. The soldier standing behind Rogier grabbed his power backpack, and the vice-captain also turned around and raised his hand to do something.
"Die, you scum."
Rogier punched Alpha hard on the head again, killing him cleanly.
"Rogier, do you know what you are doing!"
"I know, kill this chaotic scum."
For a moment, the surrounding warriors were a little surprised. After all, Rogier had not left the Eternal Mountain, and the probability of them being corrupted by Chaos was relatively high.
But they still raised their guns and pointed them at Rogier, and no one dared to act rashly.
"Captain Yifeng has sent a message. He is on his way over. Let everyone believe that Rogier is on standby." The captain of Esposito's team said without emotion, but the ion pistol in his hand was always on To be activated.
"Rogier, why didn't you inform us? We have the right to know the truth of the matter."
"No, any abnormal movement will have uncontrollable effects. The fewer people who know about this matter, the better it can be handled properly. I would rather accept your suspicion and investigation after the battle than risk any casualties among you. risk."
At this moment, everyone had mixed feelings.
Especially Yifeng in the communication channel.
I miss the Sisyphus think tank so much. If he were here, he could hammer a pumpkin with a flame and it would be over. How could there be so many bad things?
When Yifeng arrived here, Situ Val had already arrived here first. He carefully examined the corpse to determine the genetic seed of the Astartes.
"The unseen gene seeds are indeed very likely to be Alpha. Hmm... Muscle lengthening surgery, in order to pretend to be a Primaris warrior? The simulation looks quite similar, research and study... .”
"Stuvar..."
"Oh, Yifeng, you're here. You can take care of it. It's confirmed that they are enemies. The Esposito brothers are probably gone. You can handle it."
Situ Val hurriedly ran back with the removed gene seeds and placed them in a long-term storage device. Before leaving, he did not forget to shout, asking the soldiers to move Alpha's body over after finishing it. He wanted to study it.
Enke, who arrived later, conducted a comprehensive survey of the scene, and then conducted a complete scan of Alpha's power armor and body. He found that 23 places including the arms, elbows, and feet had enhanced modifications and hidden murder weapons.
If he was wearing his own power armor instead of Esposito's, then the fight against Rogier would be much more dangerous.
He also did not drink the blood of the original body, it must have been used up in previous operations.
After a period of exploration, Yifeng sent everyone back to their homes to prepare for a summary meeting.
It was so foggy that I had no clue.
How did Alpha get on the ship? Lurking in Mechanical Ark? Or was it brought on by Chaos believers?
What is he doing here? How will he proceed with the plan? Does he have any accomplices?
There is no idea at all, no trace at all.
The way they do things is really confusing.
——————————————————————————————————
What have others been doing in these ten years?
As we said before, William's troops mainly deal with enemies on the ground, and Antony's fleet mainly engages in naval battles.
Ever since, after Anthony participated in several naval battles, they were invited to go to the world of Ekfut and participate in the super gathering operation.
As we mentioned before, Kafka, Judge Iselena, and the Lamenters also gathered there, so of course, Anthony finally received the award from the Red Torrent Chapter as the third company commander.
The Wailers were extremely happy to get close to Antony's troops. (After all, no one wants to see the war group founded by the Cursed Army and refuses to stay with them)
This is a large-scale counterattack organized by Dante, the "Regent of the Dark Side of the Empire", the record holder for the longest lifespan of a normal Astartes in service, the Chapter Master of the Blood Angels, and the hand-picked worker of Sanguinius. .
The general plan is for the imperial army to retreat steadily, lure the enemy deeper, and attract large enemy forces to a remote system with only two subspace channel exits, and then encircle them with large forces.
After using troops to guard the entrance to the subspace channel and surround the enemy, they began to encircle the points for reinforcements and conduct a series of follow-up battles.
The world of Crocles was finally selected.
A question arises.
If you let the enemy in through one passageway, the other passageway must also be blocked.
On the other side of the passage is the world of Favna, which is just a poor place with little output. The local population is sparse, with only tens of millions of people gathered in a hive.
Logically speaking, this group of mortals should be evacuated. But the Navy rejected the move on the grounds that "no one here would arouse enemy suspicion." Even the big bosses of the Astra Militarum were invited to apply pressure, just because they were dissatisfied with allowing the Astartes to command all the troops.
Old man Dante didn't say much, and sent a large number of Imperial Navy and a dozen Astartes battle groups to block it.
The reason why he is so relieved is because he deployed an original war group here - the Salamander Chapter.
Then...after a period of chaotic operations, the galaxy-level defense was mainly protected by ten complete Chapters and the Imperial Navy, including our old friend, the Victory-class battleship, unfortunately Captain Shi He has been sacrificed, and now he is commanded by Adjutant Venash, oh no, it is Captain Venash.
Favna's planetary defense mainly consists of four disabled battle groups.
They are the Anthony Division of the Crimson Torrent Chapter, the remnants of the Lamenters Chapter, the 3rd, 4th, and 5th Companies of the Salamander Chapter, and the Sons of the People Chapter who were captured while out for a walk. We don't know which one they are.
The pro-people war group F4 gathered.
Then the war began, and the main force of the enemy was still the blood legions fighting everywhere.
Doesn't Khorne know about the Imperium's plans? He knew it, and he was quite happy that the enemy was willing to fight head-on with the Blood Legion.
So Khorne's Great Moskar Brand excitedly smashed into the main battlefield and faced off against Dante and the Gray Knights.
The Blood Angels and the World Eaters fought fiercely. Both sides showed their "killing family" background, and the overall battle situation was once in a stalemate.
However, because there are so few Imperial Guards on the dark side of the empire, the only one found is leading the army and is responsible for blocking the enemy's way in, so Dante is now under great pressure.
Skarbrand's side was advancing vigorously, and it was difficult for the Gray Knights to resist this super demon of Khorne. Several Sisters of Silence came to support, but the situation still did not improve.
Can't beat it.
Wait for dad.
Dad is here.
At least for Dante, it was like seeing a miracle.
Cypher shot out with both spears, and all the weak ones retreated. False Sanguinius drew out the Lion King's Sword and roared towards Skarbrand.
What follows is the classic Dante's serious injury and coma. When he wakes up, the enemy has been defeated, and Cypher and the pseudo-archangel have disappeared.
It's like a dream.
The most difficult thing to do in this battle was the Dark Angel team. They came after hearing the news and wanted to eliminate all evidence of Cypher's existence. Then they saw the most untouchable people from the dark side of the Empire gathered together.
On the other side, the battle in our Favna galaxy was once very fierce. I don’t know what happened to Huron, but he actually led his troops to support us.
If you don't fight in front of the empire, you will fight in the dark side!
......
It really fits his character.
The enemy fought all the way to the planet orbit of Valrhona's world and had a fierce battle with F4.
As usual, Huron took the furthest battleship and provided fire support from a distance, but he did not hesitate to invest his Terminator troops in the offensive stage.
Faced with such a scene, Salamander also revealed his staggering wealth. Ancient explosive weapons and some armors that had only been seen in books made everyone's eyes red.
Surprisingly, the assets displayed by the Sons of the People Chapter were no less impressive than those of the Salamanders, especially the Invincible mecha, which was astounding in its skills.
The Wailers silently took out the ten sets of cavalry terminators given to them by the Red Torrent Chapter, and then came the brothers of the Death Company who were ready to join the battle at any time. They received many surprised looks for a while.
Only Anthony of the Red Torrent Chapter is crying but has no tears. Listen to me, we are really rich, really.
But I didn’t take it with me when I went out. No, no, my family is still very wealthy. Don’t look at me like this.
A few sparse Indomitable Terminators protected the soldiers of the Red Torrent Chapter. Despite this, Anthony still fought a beautiful battle with excellent resilience and wonderful hand-to-hand command.
After the battle, the Red Torrent Battle Group officially came into the sight of the big bosses. Of course, the big bosses looked at this "poor" battle group with pity.
After exchanging good words with several other F4 war groups, Anthony received supplies from the empire and the right to dispose of some trophies.
According to the process of creating a new battle group, two battle barges and several strike cruisers would have to be given. But now obviously there is no such condition. This "miserable poor man" battle group also survived, so Dante waved his hand and gave them to They received a strike cruiser, and a captured strike cruiser that will be delivered to him after the purification is completed.
After all, many battle groups were organized and destroyed by the group, leaving a lot of things behind.
Now, Anthony has become a force directly under the empire, and he is eating the imperial food.
With the Salamanders, the original battle group, as a guarantee, the Empire did not even send anyone from the Inquisition, but replenished Anthony with a lot of armor and related supplies, and then "requisitioned" the "Atris Militarum" and the Provisional "The Moon-class cruiser of the Second Pacific Star Region Navy Department" was pulled to the next battlefield.
Since then, the Atris Militarum has also entered the imperial stage, and many people have repeatedly jumped between the Astra Militarum department and the Imperial Navy department.
The only problem is the question of whether the Emperor is a human or a god. This also makes the Atris Militarum join the "Space Marine Faction" and "Regent Faction" without hesitation as soon as they enter the imperial political arena. .
The situation is changing and the story is exciting. If you want to know what happens next, listen to the next chapter.
