Warhammer 40 A New Hope

Boom boom boom--!

The sounds of space debris being destroyed in the air and falling to the ground rang out one after another. This sudden change, like water entering an frying pan, made the entire city move.

"Now, hurry up and catch up, you guys."

. . . . . .

Shortly after the space debris fell from the sky, Harom immediately took advantage of this opportunity to give an order, asking everyone to find several large transport ships on the upper left and fly out of the city.

Because of the sudden change just now, most of the monsters in the air flew towards the direction of the flower. It was only at this time that Harom and the others had the opportunity to evacuate.

At the same time, several Tau teams wearing combat uniforms followed closely behind these transport ships and flew out of the city.

"Hurry up and evacuate as quickly as possible!"

squeak--!

At this moment, the city's defense system was suddenly activated, and several turrets aimed their guns at the transport ships flying in the air and the Tau soldiers in combat uniforms.

"Destroy them! We can't let them attack the transport ship!"

Under Harom's command, a large number of missiles flew towards the turrets, but despite this, several turrets were still not destroyed.

Biu－－!

boom!

A transport ship was hit by the turret's attack and fell towards the ground at an angle.

"The transport ship was hit!"

"Don't worry about it, protect the remaining transport ships out of range of the city's turrets!"

"Continue the attack! We can't let the remaining transport ships be destroyed!"

The situation here at this moment also attracted the attention of the flying demons in the city. A large number of creatures such as rot flies flew towards them, and at the same time, enemies on the ground also rushed here.

"Fight while retreating. Don't get entangled with them! Continue to cover the transport ship's retreat!"

Another round of missiles was fired, targeting the rot flies flying in the air and the few remaining turrets, and then the squad began to retreat following the transport ship.

But the enemy was faster than expected, and soon some team members were caught up by the giant mosquitoes. Their combat uniforms could not protect them from these enemies and were easily pierced and torn into pieces.

The Tau soldier, who was flying at a relatively low altitude, was entangled by a tongue that suddenly attacked from the ground, and then dragged into a large mouth, where he was swallowed and chewed.

The Nurgle forces have reacted, and the Tau soldiers are simply unable to fight against them with just these numbers.

More enemies came towards them in an encirclement, and the escort team suffered considerable casualties.

[Advanced: Eight Storms and Rain]

Suddenly, accompanied by a fluctuation of subspace energy, a gust of wind was blown up, and then the enemies attacking from the air were suppressed by this sudden gust of wind.

[Continue to retreat, hot-blooded]

At this moment, a strange but steady voice sounded in Harom's mind.

We will protect you

In the air, more space debris or meteorites burned the sky red and fell towards the city, as if the end of the world was coming.

. . . . . .

For the first time, the attack led by Mortarion and the Death Guard Space Marines encountered huge obstacles.

Several Tau troops appeared in the next direction, and at the same time they changed their previous fighting style and used overwhelming firepower to block their attack.

The sudden change in their fighting style reminded Mortarion of the fighting style of a Krieg Death Corps he had encountered before - men rushed forward and the artillery bombardment did not stop.

Contrary to their usual practice, these alien races used a troop as bait to forcibly delay them, and then a large number of flying troops and artillery units would carry out indiscriminate bombing on their location.

After they had finally cleared out the bait troops and survived the bombing, another troop attacked, followed by another round of artillery fire.

This was completely different from the attack style of the Tau they had encountered before, and their attack was severely delayed as a result.

According to their analysis, such a desperate attack could only delay their offensive at most. With air supremacy in high-altitude orbit, Mortarion and his men's victory was only a matter of time. However, on the other hand, this forced him to concentrate on dealing with this situation.

It's not easy, because don't forget that Mortarion is still a panda, he can't speak...

The reason why the Titan people's attack mode changed so drastically was that after the fall of the Titan capital, Zhang Yi and his men impersonated their supreme command and used their remaining troops to buy time for the evacuation operation in the rear.

"They can't hold out for much longer. The sudden change in orders and fighting methods, as well as the huge number of casualties, have already made them suspicious." Zhang Yi looked at the intelligence in front of him and said. "Alas, these noseless and hairless people are nothing but a tea table..."

"For you, this is one of the few ways to achieve victory~"

After saying that, Zhang Yi looked at Kerr beside him and gave the order.

"Continue to maintain an intelligence blockade on the relocated Tau people, and prepare for the possibility that they will riot due to various reasons."

"Possibility~Possibility~"

“That’s why I hate this kind of God.”

382. End, Begin

Titanium, high orbit

A small group of imperial fleets finally broke through the enemy's defenses and joined the Hope in orbit, but this also meant that more enemies were about to attack.

The large Tau force on the ground controlled by Zhang Yi and his men was close to collapse. The attack from a fallen primarch in front and the plague of Nurgle spreading everywhere behind them made it impossible for them to continue to hold up their defense.

But the good news is that with the help of the Lizardmen, Harom successfully rescued some people from the capital, which had already fallen for the most part, and they are waiting to be transferred.

Although Master Kua Kuaat consumed a lot of mental energy in order to achieve this goal, it was worth it considering the number of people rescued.

Under the guidance of Haroum, the huge Tau transport ship flew towards the location of the Lizardmen. The space debris that had fallen before attracted most of the Nurgle troops, allowing this Tau force to retreat successfully.

Most of the people on the transport ship are ordinary people, with a few being warriors of the Fire Caste, engineers or workers of the Earth Caste, and pilots of the Air Caste.

More than half of the capital's residents were infected by the sudden plague and turned into food, zombies, or other twisted monsters. These people were the only ones who escaped.

And as Zhang Yi said before, among these Titan people who were rescued with great difficulty, it is estimated that a large number of them are potentially infected - they will be cleared out uniformly after being discovered.

Along the way, from time to time, one could see wandering zombies and dark green things that looked like plant roots. All of this indicated that the cities that had fallen in that way were far more than just the capital.

Circumventing those threatening areas and after flying for a while, Harom finally saw the simple stone houses built by the Skink Mages and a large number of Tau people waiting to be resettled and transferred to the Medieval World.

Skink pterodactyl riders appeared, led the way for the transport ships in the air, and allowed them to land at the designated location, where Kru Gar and his troops, who were responsible for settling these Tau people, had been waiting for a long time.

The transport ships slowly landed, and the Tau soldiers in combat uniforms who escorted them all the way also looked at the "reinforcements" mentioned by Haroum with full vigilance.

At this moment, Ku Jia, riding on the Tyrannosaurus Rex Kuimok, led a lizardman army slowly towards them.

"Check them and clean out those who are infected." Ku Jia said word by word.

"Clean up the 'infected'? What do you mean?" The leader Haroum was a little confused about what Ku Ga said. "All these are..."

"You know nothing of the power and threat of Nurgle, young and foolish hot-blood." Kru Gar interrupted Haroum. "The people you brought are only safe for now."

"We need to weed out those who are infected but don't have symptoms yet."

This statement undoubtedly made the Titan people, who had originally thought they had escaped, nervous again, especially when they saw the inspection being conducted not far away.

Dozens of Tau people were called out from the stone houses. A small skin lizard began to wander around these people and finally identified a Tau person who looked very normal.

There was no time to beg for mercy or quibble. The lizardmen warriors nearby chopped off his head immediately, and amid the screams of fear from the people around him, threw his body into a nearby fire and burned it to ashes.

This scene instantly caused the Tau people who came on the transport ship to panic, but the Lizardmen who were well prepared had surrounded them all.

"You are killing people! They are clearly..."

"It's just that they haven't mutated yet." Ku Gar said to Haroum. "The plague of Nurgle has taken root in their bodies. It's only a matter of time before they turn into the monsters you said you saw."

As he spoke, a lizardman soldier took out a charred object from the burning fire and broke it, revealing the equally charred but deformed bones inside.

"Chaos's methods are far more powerful than you can imagine," Ku Jia said. "And I need to completely eradicate all possible contamination."

"But...but they haven't turned into monsters yet! They can still be saved!"

Haroum tried to stop the next move of Ku Gar and his Lizardmen, because judging from the combat power they could mobilize now, it was impossible for them to fight against this mysterious race that could easily trigger meteorite attacks, control Nurgle's air forces and ultra-long-distance communications by unknown means.

"We can research vaccines, if only we could..."

"Nurgle's plague will not be cured so easily," Krul Gar interrupted him again. "And we don't have the time."

The joy of finally escaping was instantly extinguished by Ku Ga's words, because it meant that Carrom would have to watch those tribesmen who had finally escaped with them being "dealt with" by these lizardmen in front of them.

"You don't want to rescue us at all! You just want..."

Biu!

The Fire Clan warrior who wanted to protest was killed immediately, and then a huge [Ancient Fire Lizard] burned his body in full view of everyone.

"There is more than one evil god targeting you. We will cut off all possible contamination." Ku Jia said. "We will save you, but you have no right to object to us."

Direct, straightforward, and rough, the way Kugga and the Lizardmen handled the situation terrified all the Tau people present, fearing that they would be killed by these creatures because of a word they said.

"...You will only sow the seeds of trouble if you do this." Haroum was still trying, he asked the lizardman leader in front of him, he hoped to try to deal with their problems in a relatively gentle way. "We don't have to do this, in fact, we can..."

boom--!

There was a sudden explosion, followed by the Tau language familiar to Harom, and a resistance action took place before his eyes.

Then, a group of giant beasts and monitors wearing metal armor walked towards the direction where the explosion came from. A few minutes later, the monitors came back carrying several heads with helmets still on.

"Lord Kru Gar, it's Tzeentch." The leading lizard opened his helmet in front of Haroum and showed the T'au head with the Tzeentch symbol on it to everyone. "It has been dealt with. The number of rebellions is still within expectations."

"Stay alert." Ku Jia, who was sitting on Kuimok, said, and then looked at Haroum, who had a dazed look on his face. "According to what that kid said..."

"Welcome to the Novice Village, young and passionate people."

～～～～～～～～～～～～～

While the still pure targets were being transferred in the rear, the battle on the front line with the Death Guard and Mortarion also came to an end.

This suicidal interception successfully bought a lot of time for the rear, but the Tau commander on the front line soon realized that something was wrong.

At this time, the news of the fall of the rear also reached the front line and reached the ears of the troops that were blocking the attack.

The defeat happened in an instant, just as the Tau liked to use tactics to cut off the enemy's supply of materials and then catch the enemy in a jar, this time such tactics were used on them.

When the Chaos army crushes their last line of defense, it means that Titanium, the home planet of the Titanium, will begin to fall.

The leadership was all silent, the fleet had lost nearly half of its forces, and the ground forces were also in a state of disarray. This was only the battle situation near the home planet, and the battle situation in other star regions was still unknown.

More Chaos forces from different factions have been attracted by the battle here and have begun to appear in the space near this planet.

Nurgle's fleet has already engaged in combat with the fleets of Khorne, Slaanesh and Tzeentch that followed, and in the infected cities of T'au, the huge flower buds are opening one after another, and a green pollen-like substance is beginning to spread throughout the planet's atmosphere.

Tzeentch, the Lizardmen on the ground and the Space Marines of the Pathfinder Chapter, transferred the rescued Tau people to the medieval world and began the evacuation operation.

After all the members left the planet, [Hope for Good] adjusted the ship's hull and aimed one of the ship's guns at the Titanium Star.

Squeak--boom--!

After a brief period of energy accumulation, the scorching light fell from the sky, hit the planet's crust, and continued to melt the rock layers and flew rapidly downwards to the core of the planet.

After doing all this, the Hope turned around again, leading the troops that had joined her, and jumped away towards the location of the Speyer fleet.

Tau, the planet where the Tau people originated and their home planet, will completely collapse in a few hours. The Tau race has once again demonstrated the cruelty of the Warhammer universe at the cost of their lives.

However, this race will not disappear. After understanding this world, they will re-enter this world.

This time, the son of the ancient saint will teach them

. . . . . .

Medieval World

The scene of the destruction of the Tau planet was shown to all the surviving Tau people, and Mazdamuddi, who managed them, quietly watched these young hot-blooded people crying or getting angry because of the destruction of their home planet.

Then, Master Mazdamuddi placed a huge stone slab in front of them and spoke.

"In the future, I will explain to you everything about this universe..."

"Humans, Eldar, Orcs, and Chaos..."

"After that, you can choose to become an 'animal' protected by us, or, after understanding all this, fight against Chaos for the sake of all creatures in the galaxy..."

"It all depends on you, young hot-bloods."

383. It is well known that the Mechanicus likes to do tricks

The rescue operation for the Tau is coming to an end. More and more Chaos troops are pouring in, forcing the Imperial fleet to retreat.
