supreme commander's bizarre adventure

"Master Kalves died in a battle against aliens, and he was replaced by Shadow Company Commander Narat Keeling. At that time, Horus set off a great rebellion that almost burned the entire galaxy... Kielin Lord Lin told us..."

Nekhat Nev glanced at the gloomy Corax on the throne, and continued:

"He told us that Corax was dead, and wait..."

"Okay," Corax said lightly, and he let out a slight sigh, but then he asked again:

"These people in your hall, who are they? Your slaves?"

"Absolutely not!"

Niehardt Nev finally no longer had a trembling expression. Although he was shocked by the throbbing in his blood at first and was surprised by the appearance of the father of genes, now, Niehardt has to take care of his own. The name of the battle group——

"They are members of the Ash Claw."

Niehardt said so.

"We live together, we fight together, yes, I must admit, the Astartes of Ash Claw are the masters of this planet, the rulers...but I will never let you call them 'slaves' They are carefully selected warriors, heroes who have shed blood for this planet and the human beings living in this galaxy!"

Hearing this, Corax finally showed some fluctuations on his face. He turned his head to look at Tiberus, and said:

"Hear that, Tiberus?"

"It is the mission of the shark to be loyal to the empire. Apart from that, everything is meaningless," Tiberus responded, as if he was talking to himself, and seemed to be referring to Neihardt's words, "Glory , acknowledgment, comfort...the White Shark needs nothing but the necessary support."

Corax: "..."

For some reason, Corax suddenly took a good look at the successors of the exiled Terrans in front of him.

"However, almost no one in the empire you speak of knows that you are fighting on the edge of the Astronomical Torch," Niehardt retorted, "maybe the vultures who encounter the Inquisition will treat you as traitors! Rotten empire, rotten Your emperor, the human civilization that has sacrificed countless lives to stagger forward is rushing into the abyss at this moment, don’t you know?!”

"Because of this, the man-eating shark will not sit idly by like you and wait, staying in its own den like a wild dog, trembling at the changes in the outside world."

"You...Tiberus!"

"If you want to fight with me in the arena, forget it, I can't even remember when you appeared on the battlefield last time...Niehat, if you don't seize the opportunity, Then there is only ashes waiting for the claws of ashes!"

After hearing what Tiberus said, Neihard touched the weapon on his waist angrily, but he quickly understood the meaning contained in Tiberus' words... This made Neihard look subconsciously. To Corax who didn't say much from the beginning.

Corax was sitting on the throne, and it seemed that he had a lot of conversations with the woman next to him who was tense because of tension. Then, he lowered his head slightly, looked at Neihardt in front, and looked at the faces of the surrounding Ash Claws. Sweeping up, said lightly:

"Do you remember why you were exiled?"

"...History has been too long, and countless truths have been buried by the wind and sand of time, my lord, but our current mainstream understanding is that you don't like the Raven Guard of Terran origin, and think that we are on the same path as Horus Too close, so exile us."

Niehardt said so, but he saw Corax shook his head slightly, the latter's eyes swept over the Ash Claw Astartes and ordinary warriors in this hall, few people could see the Primarch's eyes. Wia looked at him... After scanning around, Corax exhaled lightly and said:

"That's not the case... I'm surprised that you can live with ordinary people now. You must know that your predecessor, the Terra Raven Guard during the Great Crusade, was able to cover friendly positions with artillery fire, persecute and capture slaves. .”

"I ordered them to storm an alien fortress, let those Terrans die there, and then I exiled the survivors."

Corax spoke frankly about the past Myshin. He leaned on the back of the throne and changed his posture. He propped up his side face with his left hand, and continued:

"However, I feel a little relieved that you have changed a lot now. After thousands of years, you finally let me see a different face from those slave owners and warlords. I don't force you to be like salamanders. Ordinarily treat civilians, but we must never treat ordinary people as slaves."

"You guys are doing a great job, I'm very happy."

As he said that, Corax glared at Tiberus, who was wandering in the sky. The latter turned his head slightly, not looking at his Primarch... The Lord of Shadows suddenly felt his blood surge, and he really wanted to yell, but he couldn't It's hard to speak because of my face.

After taking a few breaths to calm down, Corax saw that he was sitting obediently on the side, tasting the delicious aroma of the food and wine at the banquet, and the sense of imbalance in his heart became more and more vigorous.

"Okay, Nekhat Nev, I want to ask you now, are you and your warriors willing to follow me again and dedicate your loyalty to the Empire and the Emperor? As a warrior, lead Let your brothers gallop on the battlefield fighting for mankind again?"

"...My lord," Nehart opened his mouth, and he responded bitterly:

"We are just a group of nameless traitors, the Empire regards us as enemies, Chaos and those aliens regard us as threats..."

"A traitor?" Corax raised his eyebrows. "The expedition fleet I sent was lost in the subspace, and was unable to return to the empire because of alien aliens and chaos... You are not traitors."

"Go back to my command, Neihardt, I have seen your changes, and I am also delighted by your changes. This is my last advice."

"but……"

"Your gene seeds are degenerating, the number of people is decreasing, and the soldiers of the Tyranid swarm will soon come to this area, Neihardt, even if you don't want to return, you must carefully consider your future...I don't May a portion of the Raven Guard be lost in a remote foe that no one knows about."

Corax's words are very straightforward and realistic, which is exactly what Niehardt is worried about. As the chapter leader of Ash Claws, he is very clear about the predicament that the chapter is facing now. The gene seed is a kind of On the one hand, on the other hand, the weapons and equipment of the entire battle group are gradually aging, and there are almost no supplies!

Coupled with the future that Corax described...Niehardt's mentality began to waver. After a short period of thinking, he walked up to Corax, knelt down on one knee, and lowered his head to the Primarch:

"Please lead us again, Lord Corax!"

Chapter 174 Under midnight, death is still alive (25)

The United Fleet has undergone some repairs on the main planet of Artagatis in the Ghoul Stars, and plans to stay for two weeks, so that the Ash Claws can quickly adapt to the new power armor. Most of the armor they originally had in stock was old and Not worth much maintenance.

But now, the Claws of Ashes have directly used the Glory-type armor, and even their weapons have jumped several levels, but they still mainly use explosive bombs, chainsaw swords, and more common vehicles commonly used by Astartes. More powerful weapons and vehicles require more professional technical sergeants and mechanical priests to maintain and repair, and the accumulation of technology in this area in the isolated Ash Claw is not even as good as the terribly poor sharks... the previous sharks Poor to poor, even ice cubes are used to preserve Dreadnought, but there are many good things left over from the Legion era.

Nehart Nev is sincerely pleased with the changes that have taken place in the Ash Claws, but what makes him even more happy is that Corax has selected several talented Ash Claws Astartes , intending to personally teach them how to sneak in the shadows, just like those shadow masters in the Legion era.

As for Niehat Nev himself... He carries his weapon and follows Chiye Mengxiang every day. Of course, to be precise, he is a member of the guard who follows Corax and claims to be the Primarch. This makes Taber Russ disdains it a little more, but the former seems to enjoy it.

Just as the fleet was about to linger for a few more days, the Nightfall suddenly received a contact message from the United Headquarters——

"..."

At the moment, Chiye Mengxiang, who was in the bridge of the Nightfall, looked at the interpreted information solemnly, and a few minutes later, Tiberus and other shark battle groups, even the senior leaders of the Ash Claws All gathered on the bridge of this giant ship.

"Everyone, now we have a new mission, a mission from the United Headquarters... Commander Rorschach of the Baal Galaxy cannot contact us, so this order is sent through the data transmission of the United Headquarters."

Chiye Mengxiang said seriously, she clicked on the data terminal and projected the content of the information:

"The reconnaissance fleet that dispersed before found a group of Tyranid hive fleets that were not too large in number but extremely powerful. At the same time, a huge hive mothership was found in that fleet."

"Commander Rorschach suspected that it was the swarm command node unit in this star field, and asked all mobile fleet forces to gather at node 6-8-3, preparing to destroy the hive fleet."

After hearing the news, everyone was thinking, including Corax, and then Tiberus asked:

"Which fleets are responding to this order now? I remember that Lord Rorschach's fleet is still fighting fiercely with those Tyranid aliens in the Baal galaxy, or will this battle center on us?"

"It's very likely," Chi Ye Mengxiang nodded, and she continued to slide the data terminal to display more information on the projection platform, the most striking of which was the extremely large hive mothership. The appearance is still a specialized type, a type that has never been seen before, "However, as the Queen of Glory class battleship, the Nightfall is likely to be used as a sharp knife to break through the front line, and the task of stabilizing the front line will fall to the Angry Warriors Chapter On Glory Fortress."

As he said that, Chiye Moexiang nodded to Sean Connery, the representative sent by the angry warrior standing behind the crowd, and the latter returned with a solemn expression.After confirming that everyone can understand her meaning accurately, Chiye Moexiang continued:

"But one thing, I must clarify to you that the next battle will definitely be very difficult. The colossal shadow of the Great Devourer shrouds the subspace of the star field, causing a large number of ships to stray and sink, and the hive fleet is also attacking everywhere. The ones that can really be assembled must be the joint headquarters warships with quantum teleportation capabilities... However, although these warships are powerful, they are definitely not many in number."

"That is to say, we will be in a bitter battle?"

Asked Nehart Nev, Chapter Master of the Ash Claws, he was not afraid of fighting, but worried that the Ash Claws would make mistakes due to poor coordination with their allies... Any mistakes in a large-scale battle It is very likely that it will become the ant nest that caused the destruction of the Thousand Miles Causeway!

"A hard fight is inevitable, but the Fortress of Glory will go from the United Headquarters, and...the lord will also be there, so there is absolutely no need to worry about the command."

Chi Ye Mengxiang explained that after the raven on her head heard "that lord", some contempt and deeper envy flowed from those red eyes.

"That lord? Could it be another Primarch commanding us?" Niehat Nev was a little surprised, he glanced at the raven on Chi Yemengxiang's head, "Isn't it Lord Corax?"

"Just as you need time to adapt to the armor and weapons, I also need time to adapt to the current battle," said Corax, who himself is not a primarch who is good at commanding himself (even was killed by Grandpa Lan in a virtual exercise. cornered), "And before that bastard shows up, I can't show up easily."

Raven's tone was very light, but everyone felt the hatred and anger from it, and the emotions contained in it almost burst out into reality... Immediately, everyone diverted their attention and did not continue to ask this question .

After briefly discussing some details, everyone immediately dispersed to prepare to mobilize their own battle group and count the personnel who could be sent to the battlefield. To do... You have to do your job well as a spy, what if you get replaced? !

Just as Sean was worrying about how to complete the liaison mission he had assigned, he ran into a Night Lord wearing a helmet at the corner of a certain corridor. Yes, it was the Night Lord, not the Son of Night.

The Night Lord turned his head slightly, looked at Sean, and spoke, but the voice made Sean feel a little uncomfortable, as if someone was speaking with a smirk:

"She knows you're an alpha?"

"..."

Sean didn't reply directly, but put his hand on his weapon. He noticed that the midnight lord on the opposite side was not carrying a weapon, so after killing him, the means of blaming him should be carefully considered. See the clues.

"Oh oh oh, don't be nervous, I won't tell them," Lord Midnight opened his hands, indicating that he was not carrying a weapon, and he was not hostile... At least he claimed that he was not hostile, "Don't look at me like that, I also I don't want to make it difficult for you."

"Say, I'll give you 30 seconds."

"Ah, I think it's a good thing that you saved that big man named Tiberus and helped the empire at a certain right time!"

"……reason."

"It's just a favor."

The Midnight Lord smirked and said, but under that frivolous attitude, there seemed to be a little sincerity that he couldn't even detect.

Chapter 175 Under midnight, death is still alive (26)

A day later, the fleet headed by the Queen of Glory class battleship Nightfall arrived at the rendezvous point, and the entire fleet was split up. The Nightfall with the strongest combat effectiveness and the Astartes, which carried hundreds of shark sharks, The battle barge is assigned to the assault fleet, and the rest of the ships will compete with the Fortress of Glory for the initiative on the battlefield.

It's not just the sharks and the claws of ashes. In addition to the warships of the blood angels and some sub-groups, the Imperial Navy and the Mechanicus fleet participated in the raid.Almost the fleet strength of the entire northern star field of the empire has been assembled here. Once the operation fails, the battle in the northern star field will become more difficult.

But what needs to be considered is not the fighters at the grassroots level, but Perturabo, who is the core of the command of the entire fleet. Rorschach needs to preside over the follow-up defense and counterattack plan in Barr, and the representative of the defense force support in the Barr galaxy is Holy Blood. Chapter Master Dante of the Angels, with three battleships, two battle barges and a considerable number of other ships.

Wrath Warriors Chapter, Fortress of Glory, Command Hall.

Chiye Mengxiang adjusted her appearance a little in front of the thick gate outside the command hall. She would not allow the entire legion to be ashamed because of her gaffe. With this in mind, the first company commander of the Midnight Lords Legion walked into the command hall Inside--

"The Blood Angels and all battle groups must be ready for lightning strikes, and the number of terminators must be evenly distributed on the two battleships as the assault force, that is, the Nightfall and the Nicol of the Sharks Chapter. barge."

Perturabo's steady voice echoed in the entire command hall, even the arrival of Chiya Moeka could not stop him from speaking:

"After the main force of the fleet pins down the escort fleet of the Tyranid swarm, the assault fleet must prepare for a surprise attack. As for the lightning strike... the terminators don't need to destroy the vital organs of the worm, they can send fusion bombs into its body, And guard until the countdown is about to end."

"Of course, it would be better to be able to destroy that huge biological ship in the fleet battle. It's just that the Tyranid swarm has discovered our scouting fleet, and its current strength must be much greater than it was at the beginning."

"..."

Chi Ye Mengxiang, who walked into the command hall, quickly browsed through the information, and asked:

"Lord Perturabo, why don't we use the black sun cannon of the United Headquarters to strike across the void?"

"The cross-void strike of the Black Sun Cannon still needs to be verified. The first strike was during the Horus Rebellion. At that time, the strike destroyed the home planet of the rebel legion," Perturabo said expressionlessly, obviously , This incident did not make him happy, after all, Olympia was also under attack.

Chi Ye Mengxiang realized this, she bowed her head slightly, and apologized:

"Sorry, my lord."

"It's okay, let me continue," Perturabo waved his hand... Mr. Unhappy, who now has New Olympia, has long since left his home planet behind, like a ruthless scumbag, "Black Sun The cannon needs to track and lock the enemy warships for a long time in the cross-empty shooting. Most of the targets hit before are planets and stationary warships, so the effect is good, but once those warships start to move, it is easy to lose the lock Shot from the back."

"The biological ships of the Tyranid swarm move very fast, so I excluded the Black Sun Cannon from this battle. However, the neutron killer equipped on the Fortress of Glory can be used to support the divergent neutron plume. Fight, but it's best not to pin all your hopes of fighting on a super weapon."

After saying these words, Perturabo's gaze swept over every high-ranking member of the battle group, and then he continued to speak:

"Do you have any other questions?"

"No."

"Very good, more specific battle procedures will be sent to each battleship at the time of the two Terra standard, so that the fighters are ready... You can leave now, Dante, Chiye Mengxiang and the shark The big man from the battle group stays, what to look at, it's you!"

Tiberus, who was pointed out, sighed slightly. He didn't like staying in this place "full of ex-imperial traitors", but it was obvious that Perturabo had more arrangements for him, and... the shark man glanced He glanced at Corax on Chi Yemengxiang's head, but the latter remained silent as if he hadn't seen anything.

So far, only a few leaders of the Astartes Chapter are left here, and the Ash Claws are not arranged to join the assault fleet, because they have just undergone a recent change of equipment and have been wandering for a long time in large-scale battles. In addition, because of the extremely lack of high-intensity combat experience, he was assigned to the vicinity of the Glory Fortress as a member of the main fleet.

But after those scattered personnel left, the atmosphere in the entire command hall became weird——

The first is Dante. The latter gasped when he saw Chi Yemengxiang. If it weren't for the young version of himself now, he would have been drawn directly to lie on the ground like a frozen fish!

Just when Dante was about to ask Chiye Moxiang about the current situation of the Night Lords Legion, Perturabo aimed at the raven above Chiye Moxiang's head, and asked lightly:

"Corax, do you have any comments on your plan?"

Corax? !

Dante's two hearts shrank suddenly, he turned his neck stiffly like an unoiled gear, and looked in the direction of Chi Yemengxiang... I saw the pitch-black raven flying to the ground and turning into a shadow, and from A tall giant stood up again from the shadows.

A Primarch, a Primarch who has long been missing or even considered dead, just appeared in front of Dante!

"..."

Dante didn't speak, but silently injected himself with adrenaline... He was a little worried that even his young body couldn't bear the shock——

Haha, could that Conrad Koz be here now?

Not to not to be.

"I have no objection, Perturabo... are you going to arrange for me to do something?"

Corax asked, looking up at Perturabo, who nodded slightly and said:

"I hope you and Chiya Moeka can serve as the reserve team. If the first wave of terminators fails and the fleet battle loses, then it's time for you to make your debut...Although I don't like failure, I still have to do it for you." Be prepared for this possibility, having a Primarch makes the chances of success much higher."

"I can join the first wave of Terminator attacks."

"...No one has ever been in a bugship of that class, so don't overdo it, Corax."

"Then it's up to you, I will obey your arrangement in this battle."
