The Bizarre Adventure of Tartaros Fleet

That's why many people think that if the commander-in-chief Tier Vadami was in the fleet at that time, then the human fortress planet has fallen at this moment.

That's why the Prophet of Truth decided to assemble a larger fleet to directly attack the human home planet - judging from the remaining combat power of the opponents in the Reach Star Battle, they were also severely injured, and there was no way to do it again in a short time meet.And as long as the earth is taken down, it will be able to deal a terrible blow to the morale, vitality and industrial base of mankind, which will become a turning point in the entire war.

And this is also an opportunity, an opportunity to elevate the status of the Kirahani people and let them replace the San Heli who are getting more and more popular and are beginning to gradually threaten the status of the San Sim.Because of this, this fleet was assembled secretly, and all of them were troops from the Kirahani people.Because the Jiralhanis are deficient in command, the fleet will be given command to the San'Shium High Priest.

The prelate replied:

"The scale has reached 630." He paused, and reminded, "If the number continues to rise, it will be impossible to hide the Sangheili from them."

This number is actually enough, plus a battle fortress, the human coalition forces must be hard to resist.Then after the supplies are completed and the troop is repaired, the fleet can set out to win their glory.

Just as the prophet was about to issue an edict, another senior priest had already rushed in from the outside-there should be etiquette for senior prophets, but they also knew that things should be prioritized.

"My lord!" The high priest knelt on the ground as soon as he entered. "Six time units ago, a fleet set off from the city of fraternity!"

"It doesn't matter, does it?"

Every day there are fleets departing from the City of Fraternity, transporting goods and passengers, this is something that is not worth making a fuss about.Could it be that the Prophet had left the City of Fraternity in one of the ships in which it was carried?

This can't help but make the Prophet of Truth feel nervous-if he uses this to encourage those remote Sangheili troops to rebel, it may cause very serious consequences.If this is the case, now is not the time to pursue responsibility, but to immediately make him disappear into the universe.

But the words of the high priest almost made him jump out of his chair:

"But the Prophet of Sorrow is in that fleet! Their destination is our destination, the mother planet of mankind!"

There is indeed a powerful prophet in that fleet, not a guiding prophet, but a sorrowful prophet...

What is he trying to do? !

"God..." The Prophet of Truth stroked his chest with his right hand, and he felt his heart beating wildly. "How did he know that coordinate? How many ships did he bring?"

The Prophet of Sorrow is different from himself. He has always had a good personal relationship with the leaders of the Sangheili, and he has been secretly trying to occupy more power.If he takes the fleet to take down the earth first, then his plan will be completely in vain, and the influence of the Prophet of Sorrow in the Star Alliance will probably exceed his own. This is absolutely not allowed.Moreover, continuing to promote the status of the Sangheili is not beneficial to the Prophet at all, he is only satisfying his own selfish desires.

But the Prophet of Truth got an answer that seemed inexplicable to him——

"He is leading a total of fifteen warships in the Sacred Consecration Fleet." The high priest replied, "The jump coordinates point directly to the earth."

After two seconds, the Prophet of Truth figured everything out.

He must have known the coordinates of the home planet of human beings through some channel... For example, his people cracked the heritage of the forerunners, and then got the information of something very critical there, which must have a huge relationship with the pilgrimage Only then will he go alone with a light fleet without anyone reporting.

It was obvious that he wanted to eat alone, just as he thought.

After realizing this, the Prophet of Truth couldn't help but want to laugh.Is this fate?The two knew the coordinates of the planet at the same time, but the difference in the way they knew it led to the difference in the way they handled it.The man who thought it was just an archaeological site brought fifteen warships to his death, and the man who was well prepared would get everything he wanted—including prestige, status, the right to decide which way the Covenant will go in the future, and that archaeological site.

Is it too late to save him now?From the perspective of understanding of human beings, it is still too late, and from the perspective of the process of the Reach Star War... I am afraid it is too late.This time difference has already determined everything. Even if the order is issued now, the Prophet of Sorrow will probably be cold when he arrives.

It's better to be cold, and I can get more things—such as a part of the Prophet of Sorrow, or everything.

But the appearance still needs to be installed.The Prophet of Truth made an anxious look:

"Why did he suddenly attack the human home planet at this time? Is there anything there?" He waved his hand, "Don't worry about that! Get ready to go, we have to help the Prophet of Sorrow."

The high priest bowed his head and replied:

"The subordinate understands. I will prepare right away..."

But before he finished speaking, another person rushed in:

"My lord!" It was a behemoth with a height of nearly three meters and a weight of more than half a ton—Tataros, the chief of the ghost-faced beast. He knelt on the ground as soon as he entered, and his chest hair was wiped on the floor. It hit the ground with a loud bang, startling the Prophet of Truth.But his voice was louder than a hammer hitting the floor, and the sound was amplified by the room, echoing in a low voice. "Just now, something attacked the Unyielding Priest! It's a mess!"

"?!"

----------------------

Executive Serrandis looked at the scene in front of her, and her emotions fluctuated with surprise.

The troops of the Star Alliance are close at hand, less than three thousand kilometers away, and their ships are lined up neatly. The lights on the ships are densely connected together, just like the neon lights on the streets of Star City.

Her mothership, together with the six surrounding battleship aircraft carriers and forty tornado-class battlecruisers, had reached such a close distance, but the other party still did not respond.Covenant probes failed to spot this small fleet, which would cost them dearly later.

"Arrive at the target location—" she ordered, "Stoseus is ready to leave the ship."

The four Statius-class cruisers quietly sailed out of the hangar of the battle aircraft carrier, opened the stealth action device and slowly left the range of the invisible force field.The battleship aircraft carrier released the cavalry carrier-based aircraft 'Dynsniff', the tornado-class 1400mm cannon was ready, and the entire fleet was ready to attack.

In Stacius's hangar, the transports from the Long Night and the Truth and Harmony had been moved to the end of the hangar.These transport boats are covered with scars, as if they have just been hit by a large number of shock waves and debris, and the electronic system has also been redone, which makes them have a lot of noise in the communication, used to simulate The communication and authentication module is damaged and cannot work normally.

This would have been ineffective if the target had been any of Tartarus' fleets, but not with the Covenant.Except for the city of fraternity, the verification system of any fleet is extremely simple, so they only need to use some small tricks to get through.This made the commanders of the Consolidation Department discover something, that is, for the warships of the Covenant Alliance, the success rate and loss of using the gang-hopping tactics through hyperspace maneuvers from the beginning will be higher than that of warships of the same level. Much better looking.

Some UNSC commanders agree with this statement, the reason is that when humans did not understand the Covenant, Halsey’s Spartans had already obtained the kill of the Covenant warships through the unimaginable gang-jumping tactics, and that was still in 2525 November of [-], when the Spartans II had just gotten the Mjolnir power armor, which didn't even have shields, but they still blew up that ship - Spartan President Being able to prove in various places and in various ways that the Covenant is not invincible.

But now, whether it is experience or equipment, the Spartans are very different from before.

John-117 sat in the landing craft, watching the carefully selected marines and Hell paratroopers squeeze in, the expressions of the soldiers were hidden behind the opaque masks.From time to time, everyone looked up at a crack on the top of the lifeboat. The crack seemed to be left by a large piece of debris. It was about the width of a palm and [-] centimeters long. Through this crack, you could see the hangar outside. ceiling.

To be honest, it makes people feel uneasy.But from another point of view, it will be fine if you hit the ship without being seen through, and this kind of wound is the "special camouflage" that makes the ship not be seen through, which makes it look like a ship that has just come from An escape pod barely escaped from a destroyed battleship.

[Master Chief, this is a communication command from the Star Alliance, and the artificial intelligence will answer it according to this. ] Oregana's voice sounded in the communication [If you are asked about the specific unit number and use electromagnetic noise to confuse it, we will arrange a lot of interference.If you are attacked, activate the emergency system to evacuate, and then immediately light up that thing on the wall, understand! 】

"Yes!"

Oregana was one of the most senior commanders of the opponent, but she still took her guards into such a dangerous battle, which seemed to be the tradition of Tartarus, but John-117 always felt that this was not wise.However, as a soldier, he is not qualified to raise objections, only to obey orders.He checked the special components installed on the boat. As long as it is activated, the boat can sink into the subspace within half a second. Safely waiting in the quiet subspace for the dimensional submarine to 'catch dragonflies'.

"Everyone, get ready to go!" Cortana yelled, and she had been suddenly in high spirits lately. "We're going to make the Covenant suffer!"

[I believe you can do it. ] said the driver of Statius in the communication, it was a steady voice 【Get ready, we are almost there. 】

"The team is about to reach the target," the adjutant said to Essex. "It's still 20 seconds away!"

"Start the attack!"

She swung down the baton in her right hand.

Protos's stealth technology is very good. Although it consumes a lot of energy, it will not interfere with the observation of the ships inside the stealth field, which means it will not affect the fire control system.In this way, the enemy can remain invisible to attack, and it is difficult for the enemy to counterattack effectively before being forced to shut down-this is the key to this operation.

The orbital projectile fired by Dynesnev flew out of the invisible force field, and it seemed to flash in the universe, followed by thousands of 1400mm electromagnetic pulse projectiles.They flew towards the Covenant assembly point, and from the viewfinder it looked as if they were converging on one point.

The next moment, a series of explosions occurred in the Star Alliance fleet.Dozens of battleships were hit in a defenseless state, and the shells kept hitting their shields, turning into flashes of light and mist in the violent collision. When the electromagnetic pulse bombs tore through the shields, the second round of 'magic The sword' has arrived, and the high-speed orbital bombs fired by Dainsneve with powerful kinetic energy carved deep scars on the armor of the battleship, and some Covenant warships were hit by the gap between the bow and the hull. At the weak point, the huge wound almost tore the battleship in half.

Up to this point, the Covenant fleet hadn't even begun to counterattack or even maneuver.They were blinded by the sudden blow, but Essex did not rush forward. She called the four dimensional submarines that had sneaked into the current space area and entered the shooting position to launch a saturated attack on the CAS-class warship according to the original plan—that is The flagship of the Star Alliance's fleet, most of its command is in that position.

From the footage captured by the external viewfinder, the Master Chief saw a CAS-class attack aircraft carrier being hit by missiles that suddenly appeared in all directions. It flew from somewhere, tore off its armor, and opened a large hole tens of meters in diameter. Flames and a large number of fragments spewed out from the hole. It took a second for the Master Chief to realize that it was an artillery attack from an extremely far away.

"We're marching under a hail of bullets..."

A marine said in a low voice. He was covered in thick CMC armor and held a C-14 rifle in his hand, but his voice was trembling.Because they have to perform extremely dangerous and difficult tasks, the marines and paratroopers of the attacking force are equipped with this newly acquired power armor, which will allow them to have stronger firepower and survivability, but this new equipment His power armor didn't bring him a strong sense of security, because the naval artillery shells from the friendly forces were traveling in all directions, and he was at its target, which was the center of the enemy fleet.As long as one is not careful, the entire ship may even be destroyed by friendly firepower.No power armor whatsoever would be of any use at that point.

"The ancient people six centuries ago would not be afraid of this," his chief patted his shoulder hard. "Isn't this Xu Jin's barrage! Don't panic!"

"You see this as Xu Jin's barrage?!"

"Just lower the bar a little bit."

At this moment, the entire cabin shook violently, and there was no sound inside.In the next moment, the ceiling visible from the gap disappeared, and the war-torn universe was outside. No sensor could read the message of the Statius class, and she disappeared from the battlefield like a wisp of smoke. .There were explosions everywhere outside, the lifeboat was spinning uncontrollably, and everyone was holding on to the armrests next to the seats, leaving everything to fate.

It was another salvo, and a CCS-class cruiser next to it was penetrated. In the constant explosions, many U-shaped troop carriers were ejected from the hangar—the soldiers scrambling to escape were turning into molten steel furnaces All the communication channels of the battleship are filled with strong electromagnetic interference and silent roars.The Star Alliance warships began to fight in a hurry, and the purple light of plasma torpedoes lit up in the breach from time to time, making people tremble with fear.

Just when the tension of the soldiers was about to reach the limit, the rotation of the hull suddenly stopped.In the image sent back from the external viewfinder, the Master Chief can now see that it is a spaceship, two "U" shaped hulls, each the size of their escape boat, stacked on top of each other.The ship accelerated toward them, then split in two—one part moved to their stern, the other to the bow.The echo of metal colliding with metal came through the hull, Master Chief felt as if he had been hit lightly in the chest, and then felt an astonishing acceleration.

The Covenant tugboats began to rescue all kinds of escape boats floating in the wreckage. In this chaotic situation, they had no time to verify what was inside the escape boats. In order to avoid chaos and shake, just to carry out the search and rescue orders issued by the superiors has already gone all out.

On the other side, the corners of Oregana's mouth raised wildly, just like the high school student who cursed people to death with a notebook——

"Hahahahaha! This is Troy!"

"They really don't scan lifeboats..." Akuya next to him showed an expression of disbelief, "We have to scan several times even if we pick up a rock and go back."

"After all, it's a place like hell." Oregana held the Khorne axe in her hand, and she was ready to rush out to close her head the moment the ship stopped. "See, this is the result of perennial abuse— ——If you don’t compete with enemies of the same level as you, or even engage in exercises and become rigid in your thinking, you will become more and more only F2A in the end, this is a lesson!”

"Stop laughing, the soldiers are watching." Liu Lizi knocked on Oregana's helmet bang, and said a line that seemed to be tricked by the masked man, "Have you thought about how to fight?"

"First," Oregana took out a terminal, and the image on it showed a man sitting recliningly on a sofa, "find a place to inject a copy of this special AI into the space station's system, and he will help us suppress it." The Covenant forces also have the internal communication of the space station, and then we will make as much noise as possible, dismantling and blowing up as much as possible, Monica's team will ensure the battleship for retreat, and we will run away after the Master Chief is done. .”

"understand!"

For a while they swooped down, and there was nothing on the screen but a few stars and black space.Oregana catches a glimpse of a golden star, then video feeds past a yellow planet shrouded in clouds of sulfur dioxide and its silvery moons orbiting it.The shelling had stopped for dozens of seconds. This was because Serendis judged that the enemy had already judged the approximate position and began to fight back. If he continued to stay, there might be unnecessary danger. Therefore, he had already withdrawn the fleet, leaving only the Star Alliance at a loss. Fleet and pieces of wreckage.

Soon, the viewfinder captured the Priestess of the Indomitable—it looked like two bulbous Covenant ships collided, with many spokes radiating from the ship's midpoint, connected to a slender ring to form a wheel Shaped, lithe tubes extend from the two bulbous sections and move slowly over the central disc.

In the words of Sergeant Johnson, the appearance of this space station is roughly "two squid hugging and kissing", which is quite vivid.

As it gradually approached, the space became bigger and bigger, and finally filled the entire picture, and its shape could no longer be seen.Oregana gestured, and the soldiers unfastened their locks and safety belts, readying their weapons.She floated to the door of the cabin with a battle ax alone, and fell heavily to the floor under the sudden gravity, assuming a posture of advancing.

There was a series of metal clicks from the hull, and air hissed through the cracks in the ship.She wasn't sure what was outside the hatch, but whatever it was, the treatment was the same.Feeling the slow movement of the ship, she turned on the communication:

"Sparta! Can you hear me!"

[This is John 117, we have arrived at the 'Unyielding Priest'!The Covenant didn't see us! 】

"Very well, you sneak in, we will attack." She clenched the chopping ax tightly. "We will see you at the celebration banquet."

【As per your order! 】

The next moment, the hatch opened with a creaking sound, and a head with messy hair stuck out.It was a Brute, tall and muscular, with jagged, sharp teeth.When he saw the things in the cabin, his ferocious face shrunk in fear, and in his pupils, a red shadow was approaching rapidly, and this was the last scene he saw.

Oregana rushed forward with terrifying momentum. She slammed into the Brute, and pressed the ax blade to the stubby, hairy neck.He was knocked flying, and the howling ax bit deeply into the neck of the Brutal Beast, ripping off the muscles and blood vessels, and the blood sprayed out immediately, splashing all over the ground.

The Star Alliance soldiers around were stunned by this sudden change. Just as they were about to raise their guns to shoot at the red-armored soldier, they saw a group of people rushing out from the cabin, and the various guns in their hands began to emit flames. Curry was instantly filled with explosions and screams.

"Crush the enemy with iron boots!! Kill without regret! Victory without shame!" The Skullmaker ignited the propeller and jumped into the air. The dark red propulsion flame spread out like wings behind her. She was aiming at the bottom and was relying on the vehicle as a cover The enemy who fought back unfolded the shield on his chest——

"Devil God - Lie Yan!!"
