Protoss in Warhammer

Chapter 212 200. Badab’s last battle ([-])

As the war continued, time came to year 911. At this time, seven full years had passed since the rebellion.

Badab galaxy, Badab star.

The once prosperous port has already been depressed due to years of martial law. A large number of workers and sailors have lost their jobs due to this situation.If Huron had not allowed his tyrant army to participate in the execution of the local Department of Justice, these workers would have long since entered a sea of ​​chaos on the planet.

But even so, the civilians are still resisting, because this situation cannot last forever.Even those who are still enduring the increasing taxes are only because the prestige he has accumulated in the past few decades has brought a better life to these civilians. Almost everyone hopes that the war will end soon.

But can the war end now?What will be their ending after the end?
The people on the planet knew very well that when they learned that the Shark Chapter massacred and plundered the surrendered planets after the battle, they understood that the empire would reoccupy this place and that only death would be waiting for them.

Now this once beautiful world has been transformed into a fortress where thousands of Astartes from the Star Claws have assembled for the final battle.

Although some senior members of the Chapter had previously persuaded their Chapter Leader to give up this territory before the enemy came here and become a wandering Chapter, as long as they did not fall into the embrace of Chaos, everything would be fine. accept.

But the heartbroken Huron decided to stay here for the last resistance. He responded calmly to the persuasion of his brothers.

"I will stay with our people until the end."

After realizing that there is no way to persuade their Chapter Master, everyone can only prepare for their last moment.

Looking at the brothers going away, Huron finally showed his tired expression.The tall demigod weakly walked up the marble steps, and finally slowly came to the throne of the former governor of the planet Badab, and sat down at once.

He didn't understand why things turned into this situation. What did he do wrong?
Don't the high lords of Terra know the problems they are facing now?The contradictions within the Maelstrom are getting bigger and bigger, and more mutants and former traitors are constantly breaking through the barriers of the physical universe to plunder.

How could the precious gene seeds be handed over to them for the number of so-called transformed recruits? In fact, it was not enough to replenish their dead brothers and the number of dead brothers they might need in the future!

What help has the High Lords Council of Terra given them over the past ten years?Instead of bringing a bullet, a gene seed, or a battleship to the Maelstrom Alliance as compensation, they also transferred a battle group, causing the originally good situation to collapse instantly!
Huron finally understood not long ago that the biggest enemy faced by their Maelstrom Guardians was not aliens or heretics, but the bloated imperial administrative agencies.If they continue to interfere, the maelstrom will never be able to calm down!

That's why he wants to start increasing his soldiers, create his own fleet, and kill those corrupt mortal officials. That is to establish an administrative division on the edge of the maelstrom that can truly guard the empire's territory and protect the territory here!
And now, just because he paid the damn gene seed tax from Mars, and those corrupt and annoying nobles said a few nonsense words, they defined him as a traitor?

The more Huron thought about this, the more angry he became. Could it be that everything his battle group and he had done for the empire had been covered up because of this little thing? This kind of unspeakable sadness and grievance was in his heart. Formed within.As an Astartes, he shed tears for the first and last time. These were tears that flowed from the bottom of his heart sincerely. How many people could feel that kind of grievance and sorrow, anger and sadness?
"Everything is the fault of the empire! It's all the fault of those damned mortal bureaucrats! Without those damned poisonous bugs, our empire could have been better!!!"

The more I think about this, the more my grievance will be shrouded in increasingly intense anger.The physical modifications of the Astartes did not make them better immune to pain. More nerves combined with physical modifications made them more sensitive and their control of emotions more fragile.

Just when he was about to lose control of his anger, a cold voice brought him back to reality.

"Chapter Commander, I am the Great Sage of Angoras. We have some bad news. Please come to the headquarters and we will report to you."

After hearing what the other party said, Huron quickly suppressed his anger. After all, the support of the Mechanicus was also crucial to him.When he arrived in a hurry, he received good news and bad news:

The first bad news is that the Executioners Chapter has completely broken away from them.

In fact, this matter has already happened. At the beginning of this year, the Executioner Chapter and the Claw Gate of the Starry Sky successfully squatted near a star system near the fleet I wanted and quickly launched a gang-hopping operation against their battle carrier.

During the battle, the Executioners Chapter and their allies briefly gained the advantage, but when the Executioners discovered that the Star Claws were actually trying to plunder the Salamanders' gene seeds, they became furious.You must know that there was an unwritten rule in the Imperial Astartes Civil War, that is, they would not plunder the opponent's gene seeds. Obviously, the act of Star Claws has completely touched the hearts and minds of the Astartes Chapter. Bottom line!
After persuading them to no avail, the Executioners Chapter did not hesitate at all and cooperated with the surviving Salamander warriors on the battleship to eliminate the Star Claws who boarded the ship.

Afterwards, they quickly left the Star Claw fleet and announced that they would no longer continue fighting with those despicable guys, but they would not quickly surrender to the Empire. In short, the Executioner Chapter is no longer responsible for either party. , will not continue to participate in this battle.

The good news is that the Empire's Fire Angel Chapter announced its withdrawal from the battle because they could not stand the cruel behavior of the Man-Eating Shark Chapter.The Fire Angels Chapter has a very close relationship with the state religion of the Empire. These Astartes Gates are the only Chapters that regard the Emperor as a god. The way to salvation.

So when they saw the horrific scene, although they stopped the Salamanders Chapter's idea of ​​revenge, they could not continue to endure the practices of those barbarians. In addition, their troops suffered heavy losses and must be recovered. Go to your home world to replenish it.

The Fire Angels Chapter was not the first Chapter to withdraw from the war. The Fire Eagle Chapter and the Knights Errant also announced their withdrawal from the campaign due to heavy losses.This battle has exhausted everyone.

But this is not so good for Badab Tyrant, because two terrible enemies, the Minotaur Chapter and the Shark Chapter, have joined the battle. He is destined to have only one way to continue in the future battles. .
