Infinite Metaverse

Chapter 58 Gravity Siphon

Vlahos sat in the captain's chair on the bridge.

He looked solemnly at the scene outside the window.

Without the need for auspicious or various radar readings, Vlahos could see with the naked eye the behemoth that occupied most of the bridge window's field of view through the transparent bridge window.

"Sir, the Dagger has sent a call request." The attendant standing next to him said.

"Connected."

Vlahos said without turning his head.

A half-body hologram appeared on a nearby device.

It was O Kuotai in bone-white power armor and no helmet.

Wo Kuotai asked, "Frajos, what is that?"

Vlahos shook his head slightly and said:

"I don't know, I still want to ask you."

"The Gladius's subspace engine has failed. My navigator told me that the subspace energy in this star area is very active, and I'm afraid it won't be possible to jump."

Frajos nodded: "The same goes for the Sosaran."

Wo Kuotai asked: "What do you think?"

Frajos said: "There is no doubt that this must be another conspiracy of the traitors, but I haven't figured out how to implement their conspiracy for the time being."

Outside the porthole, a huge group of mechanical metal structures lay silently in front of the cruiser Sosaran and the frigate Dagger.

Two space battleships several kilometers long, in front of this group of metal structures, are like two small melon seeds in front of an ugly big potato.

This structure is similar to an irregular ellipsoid, crooked and pitted. If you look carefully with a telescope, you will find that it is made up of countless wreckage of spaceships and ships of various models and styles.

On the large screens on the bridge of the Sossalan, the technical crew members have put the detailed surface drawings of the huge metal structure that they scanned for analysis by everyone on the bridge.

Inside the bridge, there were only the busy rustling of the servants and the crew. Everyone was observing the pictures, but no one spoke.

Sitting on the captain's chair, Frajos scanned the detailed pictures one by one with serious eyes.

"My God, that's..." A technical priest stationed on the ship excitedly pointed to a pattern symbol on the surface of the metal structure's shell, and said:

"That's the symbol of the Dark Ages. I recognize that symbol. It appeared in the historical materials introducing the Iron Man Rebellion!"

The technical priest lifted the dark red hood on his head, revealing a cheek covered by a metal mask and breathing tube. He turned to Vlahos and shouted:

"My lord, that is a spaceship from the Dark Ages. There must be technology from the Dark Ages hidden inside. We need to land on it to explore it, my lord!"

Vlahos shook his head slightly.

He is not a Tech-priest of the Adeptus Mechanicus, and the Sossalan is not a research vessel of the Adeptus Mechanicus. It is a warship belonging to the Space Marine Legion.

As the top commander here, he needs to consider factors such as the priority of tactical targets, more intelligence, the casualty tolerance of the soldiers, etc., instead of letting the madmen of the Mechanicus have their own ideas.

"Sir, I remembered. As far as I know, that is the so-called space hulk that once appeared in the Koprulu sector."

A mortal staff officer said suddenly.

"Space Hulk..." Vlahos muttered under his breath.

He had heard this term before, a mixture of subspace debris floating in subspace and elusive in the real physical universe.

This thing is erratic and extremely difficult to defend. The aliens accompanying the space hulk often bring huge disasters to the local planet.

But the thing in front of me is also too big, far exceeding the size of a "ship", it is simply an asteroid.

The ultramarines on the Sossaran suffered relatively heavy casualties on the planet Roswell 7, and the teams were not fully organized. Considering this, Vlahos was very hesitant about his attitude towards the sudden appearance of the space hulk.

"Vlahos." Ogedai's half-length holographic projection on the device flickered vaguely, and he said meaningfully:

"At our current speed, by the time we reach the solar system, the war will be over."

Wo Kuotai's words strengthened Frajos' belief that no matter what is on this space hulk, ancient technology, alien creations or other things, at this point in time, there is nothing more important than the war on Terra , all priority is to go to the solar system.

"I command."

Frajos said in a deep voice.

"The bow light spear is charged and ready. Aim at this space hulk and fire three full-power salvos."

"receive."

The technical priests and artillery officers took the order, operated on the console, and accurately conveyed the firing instructions to the bow light spear group.

A pair of void-splitting light spear groups fixed on the bow of the Moon-class cruiser began to charge.

Frajos went on to say:

"Turn left 45 degrees, side macro gun array, load, high explosive bomb, one shot, after loading, fire in sequence."

"receive."

The artillery officers in charge of the macro artillery array took orders again and continued their busy operations.

Fierce flames spewed out from the engine nozzles at the tail of the battleship, pushing the cruiser to turn and move slowly. Huge thousand-ton shells were stuffed into the barrels of the side macro guns. This row of lightning-type macro gun arrays was ready to go. .

Vlahos issued a series of orders quickly.

Even though he had followed Okudei's advice, Frajos decided to make a tentative attack before leaving to see what level this space hulk was.

Will it fall apart in a salvo of fire from the Sosaran.

There is no need to aim at all, and huge targets can be hit with eyes closed.

When it was ready, the thick energy beam gathered by the light spear shot out in an instant, and shot directly at the tattered and worn-out outer shell of the space hulk.

The three beams all penetrated the shell without any suspense, and then disappeared into the pitch-black interior without a trace.

"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"...

There is no sound in space, but the tremors and loud noises when the macro guns are fired are still transmitted to the feet of everyone on the bridge.

Huge high-explosive shells blasted clusters of flames on the shell of the space hulk, and when the flames dissipated, only dark pits remained.

Sure enough, it was useless.

Lunar-class cruisers are conventional cruisers, and they are not equipped with the Nova Cannon that heavy cruisers and battleships are equipped with. Otherwise, Frajos would like to try the power of the Nova Cannon.

"Sublight engine, full speed forward."

Frajos ordered helplessly.

If you can't afford it, just go around, the subspace jump can't be used anymore, can't I drive away slowly?

Blazing white flames spewed out from the tails of the two warships, they turned their heads and started moving in one direction.

Just then, suddenly.

The huge metal structure moved.

A huge, standard circular pit suddenly sank in the middle of the space hulk.

This deep pit is very abrupt on the irregularly shaped space hulk, narrowing the middle of the whole group of metal structures, from an ugly big potato to a twisted big potato.

A burst of invisible ripples emanated from the deep pit and oscillated in space.

The inertial system on the cruiser failed for a moment, and then recovered immediately. Everyone on the bridge was staggered by the shaking hull for an instant.

Quickly stabilized his body, the technical priest had already shouted:

"My lord, look!"

The mechanical tentacles under the dark red burqa pointed at the screen, and the screen showed that the output power of the sub-light speed engine was gradually increasing, reaching the maximum power.

However, the speed of the battleship on the speedometer is gradually decreasing!

Until it dropped to zero, the entire battleship had come to a complete stop.

The engine nozzle at the rear is still outputting with full force.

But the battleship just didn't move at all.

Outside the porthole, some tiny meteorites suspended in space are already slowly moving backwards.

"It's pulling us!" said an Ultramarine sergeant in horror.

"It's a gravitational siphon, my lord!" The technical priest said hurriedly, "The instrument has detected a huge gravitational field comparable to a neutron star suddenly appearing on this space hulk, and we are being pulled closer to him by its gravitational pull!"

Frajos's face darkened instantly.

The traitors in collusion with Chaos had prepared a space hulk here.

"Turn around, find the orbit of this gravitational field, or leave directly!"

Frajos ordered loudly.

After some operations, the technical crew responded anxiously:

"Report sir, the steering rudder is out of order!"

"It's useless, this is a gravitational force in the direction of the vector, which is different from the normal gravitational field of the planet, and we can't form an orbit around it." The technical priest said.

The people on the bridge couldn't help but start talking about it, and someone proposed to use full firepower again to see if the deep hole could be destroyed.

Some people objected that the tail of the battleship is now facing the deep pit, and the steering has failed.

Hearing this, Vlajos's eyes became deep. He took a deep breath, and his whole body calmed down. At the moment when the entire bridge was in a panic, the man said loudly:

"Space Warriors, assemble!"

"yes!"

The captains of the Ultramarines on the bridge responded instantly.

They got up and began to mobilize their respective teams, heading to the boarding deck to assemble.

Frajos suddenly got up from the captain's seat and said:

"Since we can't get rid of the pull of gravity, then we simply land on it, no matter what tricks the enemy is playing, we will directly destroy their devices!"

Nothing can't be solved with a jump.

If there is, then start the jump gang again.

Frajos quickly ordered:

"The terminators of each team are selected individually to form a spearhead assault team, and the first batch board the ship with jumping torpedoes."

"receive!"

"All Space Marines, switch to jump shields, carry double armor-piercing grenades, and replace bolters with bolt pistols, plasma pistols and melta guns."

"receive!"

After issuing a series of dazzling orders, Vrajos turned his head to look at the technical priest, and asked, "According to the current speed, how long will it take for the Sosaran's ship to come into contact with the space hulk?"

"Our current distance is still relatively far. With the suction power unchanged, it is estimated that we will be sucked together with the space hulk in another 40 minutes, my lord." The technical priest replied.

"Forty minutes... is enough," Frajos said.

After thinking for a while, he turned his head and told the technical priest lightly:

"If the jump team still can't solve the problem after the battleship and the space hulk come into contact, then activate the emergency plan and detonate the plasma reactor of the battleship."

He blew himself up and died with the Chaos traitors.

The technical priest was stunned when he heard this, and then said slowly: "I understand, my lord."

Vlahos slowly sat back on the captain's chair and looked straight ahead.

In this battle, he will sit on the bridge and command, and he has already made up his mind to die with the enemy.

At this time, the extinguished holographic projection lit up again, and Wokuotai's figure appeared on the device.

"Vlahos, are you ready to join a gang?"

Facing the same situation on the Gladius, Ogedai had already guessed Vlahos's choice.

Vlahos nodded.

Wo Kuotai also nodded and said:

"I am sending four Space Marines to join your gang jumping team. There is only one requirement. They can only obey the command of Captain Aoyama."

Vlahos said: "Okay...wait a minute, I remember Qingshan is not a sergeant, why did he become a captain?"

Wokuotai said: "Just now, I decided to promote him to captain."

Well...Vlajos has nothing to say. This is an internal matter within the White Scar. He has no control over this military rank, Wokuotai, how he likes to do it.

When the war comes, conferring titles is still a trivial matter. The key is that with the addition of four new troops, the chance of winning is somewhat increased.

There were only seven Space Marines on board the Gladius, including Fu Qinghai. Four of them came at once, which was considered to be the best of them all.
