Chapter 27 Assault
"It's time," Russell murmured.

The movement of the airship falling was not small even on the chaotic battle moon. Many orcs and imperial troops noticed it, and now it was time to leave as soon as possible.

Hanging the Huntress Blade on his back, Russell held the beautiful sphere flowing in the starry sky with both hands, and walked swiftly through various metal debris and garbage dumps on the lunar surface, and quickly approached the distant steel fortress with amazing maneuverability.

And on the frontal battlefield where the imperial army and the orc army were inextricably fighting, the Cyberlux combat unit, which had been undertaking heavy firepower suppression tasks, suddenly chose to adjust its target at this time.

A total of 18 combat units formed 6 combat groups, and 1 combat units of 3 combat group suddenly left the team. They no longer actively cooperated with the various tactical deployments of the imperial troops, but projected most of their firepower to an orc industrial area on the flank of the troops.

Gray Wind wanted to clear out all the orcs there in advance, and use a ruined wall to cover Russell's next actions.

However, on the side of the imperial army, one-sixth of the heavy fire support that had always been carried by the battle body was suddenly taken away and transferred to other places. The disastrous consequences were foreseeable.

But for Gray Wind, Russell's personal safety was a much higher priority than these friendly troops.

"You'd better act as quickly as possible."

Gray Wind's voice faded from the joke at this moment:
"The human army has successfully tore a hole in the orc's defense line not long ago. The commando team composed of dozens of elite Astartes has already passed through the gap and sneaked into the fortress under the cover of firepower. If you go late, they have probably already fought with the orc boss..."

"The efficiency is good." Russell expressed his appreciation for the bravery of the imperial soldiers, and then asked, "Grey Wind, tell me the composition of the commando."

“……突击队中有大约40名星际战士,其中13人穿着一种叫做‘终结者’的重型装甲;另有4名智库、2名寂静修女,2台被称为无畏机甲的活棺材;还有数台骑士机甲在为他们开路与垫后。”

"I still know how to learn a lesson. I know that I have been equipped with the Sister of Silence when I beat Warboss." Russell's tone was calm. He didn't think the appearance of the Sister of Silence was abrupt, because he saw the black ship of the Tribunal mixed in the martyr fleet on the way here.

What surprised him was that there were no gray knights in this commando, but after thinking about it carefully, it was actually normal, the gray knights didn't like to act with the untouchables.

"...This team configuration may be enough to deal with ordinary orc warlords, but there is still a source of Nurgle pollution in that fortress. If this group of interstellar warriors do not find out and respond in time, they are basically close to death."

"Eh...is that so?" Gray Wind exclaimed in a low voice.

"That's it." Russell replied imitating Gray Wind's tone.

During the exchange between the two, the ferocious firepower of the Cyberlux combat team had completely covered the rumbling orc industrial area, and it was carrying out a thorough extermination bombing.

And the unauthorized departure of these three combat units created an area with relatively weak firepower on the main battlefield. Although other combat units intended to plug this gap, they were unable to do what they wanted, and the support pressure on them has been increasing.

The orc armored vehicles and iron tank mechas that had escaped from the strong suppression gained a respite. They launched a frenzied counterattack towards the weak point of the defense line in groups with a more ferocious posture, and culled them as if they wanted to vent their pent-up anger.

In the sound array communication channel, the commander of the ground force and the technical sage who was driving the warrior-level Titan "King of the Night" sent dozens of communications in a row, questioning the combat team's escape.

Gray Wind carried out the bombing mission silently, and gave the imperial troops the time he had calculated:
21 minutes.

This is the time required for the combat units to complete the protection and cover of Russell and rejoin the team to provide support for them.

During the 21 minutes later called the "Bloody Moment" by the historian of the Espernes galaxy, the Empire's ground forces finally learned the true horror of the orc species.

Without the indiscriminate bombardment of the Cyberlux battle body, the dilapidated ancient giants and iron giants were all joyful, and the crude artillery smashed countless truck-sized solid shells at the positions of the mortal armored divisions and the temporary fortifications built by the Astartes battle group, efficiently slaughtering the tiny humans under their feet.

At this time of crisis, the Titan Legion headed by the Nightlord climbed up from the gap, brandished a chainsaw sword and rushed into the enemy's line, fighting with the orc's unreasonable war machine in hand-to-hand combat.

The state church priests scattered in various battlefields preached loudly with poems praising the emperor, and the mortal legions inspired by this pious belief responded to the battle cry of the orcs with more high-spirited fighting spirit and fearless determination;

The various Astartes battlegroups that had been beaten into an organization regrouped and continued to fight bravely despite the tragic casualties. They attempted to tear a gap in this terrifying green tide, and then sent as many commandos as possible into the fortress where the orc leader was hiding.

As a result, the intensity of this war has progressed to the next stage. Every minute and every second, countless lives are filled on the front line, but no one retreats half a step.

Human beings have completely fallen into madness.

As time passed, the combat force controlled by Gray Wind's sub-process has successfully destroyed the target industrial area, leaving only a ruined ruin.

Russell hugged the Wotaum Reality Perforator in his hand, and secretly walked through the ruins amidst the rumbling artillery fire. The cloak on his body was inevitably stained with the dust and scorching of war.

He didn't wear the Governor's dress or office suit, but a tattered long black cloak to hide his identity. Of course, this cloak was actually broken when he landed on the battle moon in a speedboat.

In addition to the cloak on his body and the mask on his face, Russell also used psychic powers to make some disguises to make his image confusing in the eyes of others, although it may be a bit clumsy compared to a psychic master like Alexei.

On the battered surface of the battle moon, the battle body troops that had completed the cleanup mission returned to the battlefield, and the imperial troops once again received powerful fire support from the Cyberlux battle body.

Although the gap has been torn apart by the green skins pouring out from all over the moon, and the green skins are endless, the fighting spirit of the human empire is still high.

The red-eyed humans and orcs failed to notice at this time that a figure in a cloak flashed past the ruins of the industrial area.

Russell held the Wotaum Reality Perforator in one hand, and the handle of the Huntress' Blade hanging on the back of his waist in the other.He leaped through the gap that had just been bombarded by the gray wind, and finally entered the towering fort that was contested by both humans and orcs.

His heart was surging and his nerves were tense. Russell was ready for his first real "battle", but...

As soon as he entered the door, a stench that was rotten to the soul passed through the breathing mask and broke into Russell's nasal cavity.

"vomit……"

He felt nauseous and vomited all over his face.

Should have thought, Nurgle pollution is not just pollution, this thing is also extremely stinking.
