Chapter 84: Driving the tiger and swallowing the wolf
The long barrel continuously spits out cannonballs. These cannonballs are very powerful and can break through the enemy's invincible position at close range.
The huge green skin dripping with blood flew out, and Crazy Tim's body kept showing shocking injuries, but it seemed to have no feeling at all.
Crazy Tim used himself as a devastating cannonball and hit the mecha directly. The close defense facilities under the mecha were instantly destroyed by it. It jumped to the big hammer stuck on the mecha without any scruples. On the handle.
There is a ray cannon on top, and above that is a cannon-blasting mecha's head.
Crazy Tim used his oversized fist to hammer the mecha hard, causing dents one after another.
As a master of close combat, how could he not have a knife for hand-to-hand combat? Several adamantine steel knives popped out of Crazy Tim's armor. These steel knives were collected from countless powerful enemies he had killed in his "young days". The one he is holding now is the one he used to behead the original boss of the Blood Ax Clan. Blood Blade Dagger.
These green-skinned holy objects are worshiped by countless green-skinned boys. Obtaining one of them as a reward is the dream of many green-skinned boys.
The sharp blade penetrated deeply along the deep hole made previously, and brought out a piece of engine oil.
Waaaaaaaaaaagh!
Inside the bombardment mecha, numerous alarm sounds sounded and various lights flashed, indicating that many functions of the bombardment had failed.
"Record, low-defense weapons for melee combat are too fragile and need to be corrected."
"Boss, it seems that the mecha is dying. Cannons can't be aimed at our crotches." The psychic boss felt that it was very dangerous. The enemy's waaaaaaaagh energy circle was eroding their mecha with all its strength.
"Record, the weapon's firing angle needs to be adjusted."
The mecha made of adamantine is also unable to withstand Crazy Tim's strange strength and the battering ram made of unknown materials.
Yifeng has been fighting for a hundred years, and similarly, Pao Biao has been roaming the Milky Way for a hundred years. Both of them have changed a lot, but some things have remained the same.
"Binding rope, start."
Multiple huge cables surrounded Crazy Tim's body from both sides.
"You think you can restrain me, hahaha." Crazy Tim laughed wildly and continued to attack the mecha.
"The head is detached, the direction is 19 degrees forward and horizontal, start."
The huge red button was pressed, and the head was ejected forward and upward, leaving behind Crazy Tim who was tied up and half of the mecha.
The bomb hidden among the plasma cannons and crunching cannons activated.
A mixture of green and red flames swept out along the passage. Before them, a space vehicle passed through the sky above the violent beast tide at extremely fast speeds.
The head and shoulders of the mecha flew out, equipped with psychic big heads and cannons, and the wings were displayed at the back. Now they are flying space fighters in the battleship. The most expensive thing on the mecha is Gaze and Brother Mao's staring ray cannon became the last weapon of the "aircraft".
A violent explosion came from behind. Nothing could resist this terrifying power. Except for the war lord, Pao Biao clearly felt that the enemy's waaaaaaagh energy circle was still there, but it had become like a candle in the wind, shaking. Shaking to death.
"Psychic Big Boss, after the explosion ends in a while, he will teleport us back and kill Crazy Tim."
Cannon didn't care about the mechas that were blown up. In line with the idea of using one generation, hiding one generation, and developing one generation, this super-powerful tech master prepared something special waaaaaaaagh to conquer all of Crazy Tim's men after his death. Heart.
I'm too lazy to fight you trash guys one by one. Show your unparalleled power, this is the best place.
But things couldn't go so smoothly. The subspace channel opened, and a battleship jumped out of it. This was a battleship with special defense modifications, and it was a transport ship with powerful firepower.
This is a death mission, with escape almost impossible, and the warriors are ready to be reduced to complete ashes along with their ships.
It is a Raven Guard ship that carries vast secrets aboard, and its warriors are ready to die, detonating bombs before dying on their mission to ensure the complete destruction of all secrets.
Then the massive warships jumped out and even the greenskins were dumbfounded.
A large force of Khorne's forces arrived. I don't know how many people there are. Even Khorne personally took action and used his gaze to weaken the reality barrier here. This is very difficult. In the galaxy where waaaaaaaagh energy flows across the galaxy, Khorne's Asia Space energy coverage means having to compete with the subspace projections of Brother Go and Brother Mao.
It's not that the other gods didn't come, it's that they were all beaten away by Khorne. Of course, Tzeentch really didn't come. He knew from the beginning that this was a trap, and there was almost no chance of getting it.
Let this idiot Khorne go. Anyway, his troops are quite happy fighting greenskins.
It's really stupid to resist the Emperor's wrath and divide the troops.
No one knows how many troops Khorne has mobilized, but it is determined to gain the secret.
The Nineteenth Legion, the biggest secret of the Raven Guard, has been wrapped up in its anti-psionic stance from the very beginning. If you want to know it, you can only attack the Raven Guard's headquarters or capture their original body in the warp. Corvus Corax.
During the Horus Heresy, the Raven Guard suffered huge losses. The Primarch Corvus Corax lost almost all of his troops, and the Legion was on the verge of extinction.
The desperate Primarch went to Terra alone to seek help from the Emperor. The Emperor was busy at the time and did not summon him, but he still channeled a little psychic power to guide Corax Corax.
The Emperor used psychic powers to directly implant into the Primarch's brain part of the memory of the creation of the Primarch, as well as the laboratory from that time.
The Emperor asked Corax Corax to enter the laboratory on the moon through the terrifying "Maze" defense system to find what he wanted.
The Raven Lord completed his mission and obtained the shared genome between all Primarchs. He immediately went back and had his Chief Apothecary extract the "pure" genome of the Raven Guard.
With the help of the loyal Mechanicum gene master Olandriaz, the task was directly exceeded.
The Raven Guard has mastered the enhanced organs that allow all Space Marines to grow directly into shape, and also have all the reinforced organs except the black carapace.
Even the gene storage glands (the organs that store gene seeds) are no longer needed.
What's this? Unconditional explosive technology!
The Alpha Legion tried to steal and destroy this technology. As the best assassins, simple assassins, warriors disguised as the Raven Guard, they infiltrated and contaminated part of the genome, and took away the complete genome.
It's just the genome. After all, there aren't many things the assassin can take away.
The results of this attack were limited to this. After all, the original body of the Raven Guard was there, but this attack also resulted in the fact that the Raven Guard no longer had the ability to create complete super warriors, only a bunch of mutated Super Raven Guards.
Corvus Corax was conservative and did not continue to raise troops. He led his troops out to fight.
Later, a mixed team of Raven Guard, Salamander, and Iron Hands attempted to recapture the technology. They succeeded in their mission, and the loyal warrior Sharrokin took the genome away.
No one knows whether Sarrokin returned to the Empire alive, but the birth of the Primaris Space Marines seems to have the shadow of this technology.
In short, in these ten thousand years, no one knows the specific number of the Raven Guard. The success rate of this technology after being contaminated by the enemy is very low. Only one person in a hundred may succeed, and the others will turn into terrifying monsters or Direct death.
But the "unconditional violence" of this technology is so powerful. No one knows whether the Raven Guards have really given up on this technology. Maybe somewhere, a large number of Raven Guards are sleeping, surrounded by Countless mutated warrior corpses that failed to transform.
What is certain is that according to the empire's records, this guerrilla group fighting behind enemy lines has always been sparse in number. The selection of new recruits is very strict, and the training time for new recruits is also very long.
Everything is full of doubts. Are those who died during the recruitment selection really dead? Are the recruits really trained for the same group of soldiers during the extremely long training period?
Anyway, in name, this technology is permanently sealed.
Now, this technology has reappeared in the world, not only the genome sequence that was stolen and then recaptured, but also the complete production technology. In short, if you take it, you can storm.
Falseness is meaningless, this cannot escape the eyes of the evil gods, this is a true copy.
When the Imperial Inquisitor feebly came up with this impossible plan, the Empire was troubled by where to find treasures that would attract the forces of Chaos.
The Raven Guard's Librarian was inspired to do just that.
The Raven Guard didn't know what was going on internally. They could only confirm that the time was very fast and the process was very noisy.
In just one day, the Inquisitor's request was followed by a message from the Raven Guard.
So it became like this.
A group of warriors who were certain to die drove a battleship through a battlefield filled with gunfire. The Raven Guard's long-term experience of fighting behind enemy lines (being surrounded) was fully utilized.
It can shuttle freely among all kinds of artillery fire, and the overload speed of the void shield is obviously slower than that of the hackers behind.
The main reason is that an unknown ship suddenly passes in front of you, and you may not necessarily react, but the huge Khorne fleet that follows can be hit by the greenskins' metaphysical cannons.
The war brains on both sides, who only knew how to fight, immediately started fighting with each other.
In line with the principle of finding the biggest challenge when it comes to picking a fight, the Raven Guard ships rushed towards the enemy's largest warship (the two ships were too big to collide with each other).
The greenskins were fighting in full swing, and the sudden appearance of a human ship made them confused.
Isn't this the center of the battlefield? Why did a human ship appear?
The Raven Guard fired a volley of macrocannons at the greenskins, and then rushed towards the Battle Moon on the other side of the battlefield.
Several terrifying rays penetrated the Raven Guard warships, and the emperor's currency perfectly completed a small gain.
The battleship failed to support them to reach their final destination, and the Raven Guard had no way to detonate the bomb (physically) in advance. In the end, they watched all the secrets turn into dust, fly into dust, and burn to ashes.
Anti-subspace equipment is very precious, but now it has to be split into a large number of branches. These small things have much less ability to suppress subspace, but they are enough to confuse demons.
There are only five soldiers alive. There is no need to send more soldiers on this kind of death mission. Wherever the gang is jumped on the battleship, that area will be blown up. There is no need for any protection and anti-bounce gangs.
The army of Khorne fought with the greenskins, not only the World Eaters, but also various forces who believed in this evil god, including the Iron Warriors, the Night Lords, and Horus who poached from next door. His son and others are here.
Everyone wants to obtain this violent weapon technology, so they will not believe that the secret has been blown up and start attacking crazily.
The Khorne fleet broke through the endless greenskin warships and headed for the ship.
The greenskins were naturally curious to check the situation on the ship, and then started waaaaaaaagh.
The intense bombardment attack instantly shortened the distance between the bombarded spacecraft and the bulkhead, followed by emergency braking and a flurry of outside situation reports.
Taking this opportunity, Crazy Tim's psychic Big Head subspace teleported to his War Lord, and at the risk of his head exploding, he teleported Crazy Tim back to his flagship.
His teeth were itching with anger. While commanding his fleet to attack the forces of Khorne who dared to invade, he organized the greenskins on the fleet to prepare to invade Crazy Tim's warship, and cooperated with the troops that had infiltrated earlier.
However, the opponent's warships began to roll forcefully, and a large number of greenskins from both sides were thrown out of the gap. Crazy Tim's flagship suffered the risk of the gap in his warship being widened by 35%, and forcibly broke away from the gang-hopping battle and began to evacuate. to his own army.
Crazy Tim didn't feel that he had failed. He was seriously injured. Didn't the opponent also lose his mecha and run away in a panic?
The two damaged large metal ball-shaped "battleships" eventually flew away separately, but the brutal Khorne force army would not let them go.
Greenskins and Chaos also have no friendship at all, so they start fighting.
The fighting spirit of both sides is high, but this is only temporary. They have no reason to fight to the death, and now the remaining strength of the Raven Guard will give them one.
The wreckage of the battleship fell towards the battle moon. Not only that, several disguised escape ships flew out of the battleship carrying small anti-subspace devices, and each flew towards the nearest huge green-skinned battleship in each direction.
Khorne, guess which ship our secrets lie on.
A counter-warp device in exchange for the chaos of two Greenskin and legions of Blood Legions, a trade the Imperium was happy to make.
Those loyal captains and crew? The Empire doesn't care.
The remaining five members of the Raven Guard need to find a way to leave this messy battlefield. Their mission has been completed, and the next step is to use all their strength to escape.
——————————————————————————————————
Yifeng's fleet was cruising around when he suddenly received a communication. The fleet of the Ministry of Interior was here. Not only did they come to collect taxes, but they also brought the founding document of the Red Torrent Chapter. Of course, it was the Hazy Star from the dark side of the empire. Domain provisional second issued by the Ministry of Interior.
Kafka, "the best official of the Ministry of Internal Affairs", came with a letter of appointment. He tried his best to win this job from his colleagues.
At this point in the war, all places were in a state of shortage of resources. The worlds within the empire had long been squeezed out of shape, and the originally wealthy planets now had to use their population to collect tithes.
The tithe doesn't care what you pay or what you produce, even if you turn in Planetary Defense Force personnel to join the Imperial Navy.
But if these officials from the Ministry of Interior want to enjoy a real "comfortable trip and get some kickbacks", it is impossible for them to want to go to those poor places.
What kind of enjoyment do you expect to have in a place where you can’t hand over anything?
Those guys who are not good at managing relationships have gone to the war zone to collect taxes. Whether they can come back alive depends on their luck. Anyway, I went to enjoy the small enclave in the Taiping Star Territory.
As soon as they entered Scaria, a large number of planetary cannons were aimed at the tax collection ship. Since the last time it was confirmed that this place was safe, no matter what Kafka said, the empire would not send out warships to escort this tax collection operation. At this time, all the fleets that can fight have already pressed onto the battlefield.
The sharp retreat of Khorne's forces gave the Empire a huge advantage on the battlefield. The navy executives, dazzled by the victory, believed that now was a good time to make achievements and were unwilling to send out any force.
Kafka held the panicked correspondent's shoulders.
"Tell them that we are the official tax collection ship of the Misty Star Territory, and we also come with the founding document of the Red Torrent Chapter."
Kafka's warm hands soothed the correspondent, and he sent the message with his hands flying.
Kafka thought: Why panic? Isn’t this the best thing? The tight defense here indicates safety, and the scale of so many ordnances indicates wealth. Isn't a rich and safe place in this era a paradise on earth?
"Sir, the person on the other side said that we must check to prevent it from being a spy of Chaos."
Kafka understands this behavior, but doesn't accept it. Wouldn't this be an insult to me?
You guys look down on me for being such an obvious Ministry of Interior ship!
The response from the other side is also very simple. Anyway, you still have to teach the Red Torrent Chapter, so just wait for them to come. It will only take a few days.
The ultimate method of hanging around for a long time is recommended to the gangster...the boss.
When the Red Torrent Chapter jumped out of the subspace, the Kafka people were almost stunned. What the hell, such a large fleet came out with three complete battle barges and two strike cruisers (Indomitable) The Sickle is still under repair), and there are several cruiser formations behind it.
(The Astartes cannot own ships that are not dedicated to launching Space Marines, so the Atris Militarum has nominally carried the ownership of these cruiser formations)
Is this a complete battle group?
Yifeng, who was digging in Atris, immediately switched from construction team mode to wrangling mode.
"Ah, ah, ah, the elites from the Ministry of Interior came all the way to make the humble ship shine."
"My dear Kafka, the temporary commander of this ship. In addition to collecting taxes, I am also responsible for transmitting the letter of establishment of your chapter. Are you the leader of the Yifeng Chapter?"
Although the status of a chapter leader is very noble, as an official like Kafka, there is no need to kneel down and dare not look up like ordinary people. What’s more, it’s a good thing this time.
"I am the leader of the Yifeng Chapter. You are very welcome to come. How about we meet and chat."
"Hoho, that's not appropriate. After all, we haven't passed the Chaos Corruption Test yet."
"Ah, yes, yes, yes, don't worry, our soldiers will come to test it, it is absolutely safe and secure."
Kafka was confused. According to the procedure, shouldn't it be a bunch of compliments and "you make me absolutely at ease", and then reprimanding the local ruler for not being able to do things? Why did I check it out?
Yifeng was also surprised. It would be nice to just chat with others and meet each other. This Kafka actually asked for a chaos check. He is worthy of being an elite. He is always wary and is worth learning from.
Even the communication system was not turned off. Yifeng waved his hand and asked the planet ruler to learn from this big boss' caution and not to let Chaos invade easily. The local soldiers reported it several times.
Kafka couldn't scold or praise him for a moment, his face turned red from holding back, and he let the Red Torrent Warrior get on the boat.
But when these soldiers actually boarded the ship, he felt a little relieved. Being in a situation without escort formation for a long time made all the officers and soldiers on the ship uneasy. Now it is truly safe.
Something really happened.
"Chapter Commander, traces of chaos were found in the A90 area of the lower deck." The communication channel was not blocked because Yifeng had just taken off his helmet and was about to shake hands with Kafka.
Both sides froze.
Embarrassing in capital letters. (The whole ship is restless. You really think the evil god cannot see you.)
Humans are a race with low psychic abilities. Except for some special personnel, ordinary people have a small amount of psychic talent. Under normal circumstances, the talent is too weak to allow evil gods to invade, but under special circumstances, they can.
For example, Ola Ye's unexpected sacrifice summoned the forces of Nurgle. For example, in the subspace voyage where the barrier to reality depends entirely on Geller's stance, subspace whispers can reach directly into the human brain and drive them crazy.
The stronger the emotion, the easier it is to attract the attention of the subspace.
Both sides reacted in a unified manner, "quickly mobilize (dispatch) troops to seal off the lower deck and conduct a comprehensive screening." The two sides had a very tacit understanding and did not mention the previous "unpleasant experience."
A trace amount of chaos corrosion is very small. A flicker of Geller's stance may cause this situation, but it cannot escape the eyes of the think tank.
Sisyphus now smelled a very familiar smell, it's you Tzeentch again.
Even Kafka found no abnormalities in such tiny traces of chaos. It wasn't until Yifeng pointed out the location that Kafka realized the importance of the matter.
But Sisyphus is different. I have a staff and can see energy tracks in subspace.
"Chapter Commander, I am Sisyphus. I am now in the A892 area. I feel that the two decks directly above me are gathering the hidden power of chaos. Where is that?"
Kafka opened the fleet map for Yifeng, which is where important items are stored. Now there is one thing stored, the establishment letter of the Red Torrent Chapter.
This time the embarrassment was even greater than before. Kafka didn't even dare to look into Yifeng's eyes. Isn't this the end? Regardless of being scolded when he goes back, I guess the chapter leader will have no problem arresting him now.
"Captain Yifeng, I am very sorry to appear in this kind of thing. We will definitely deal with it seriously and strictly investigate the traitors who were infiltrated..."
"That's not important, Mr. Kafka. The important thing now is how to deal with that document. If we follow our regiment's approach, the cabin and the four surrounding cabins will be destroyed by direct heat melt."
"Captain Yifeng, isn't this a bit too extreme?"
"It is completely inconsistent with our combat concept. Is there anything wrong with using arms to destroy the enemy? Of course, this situation is quite special, so I will ask for your opinion."
Kafka looked at the Chapter Master, how he looked like a dictator.
(Guess, the old rule is, write one comment per person on what position the next Yifeng who is subdued will hold)
