Stars for the good Warhammer

Since the call for help was sent out.

As time went by, the predicament before Calgar not only did not improve in any way, but instead ushered in greater chaos during the crisis.

The busy bridge was now filled with the noise of various electronic devices and dozens of alarms echoing at the same time. The endless failure messages and the erroneous data continuously transmitted from the Thinker array had already made the commander of the Resolute The system is completely messed up.

Affected by that ghost signal, the battle barge with hundreds of thousands of crew members inside the ship is now facing an unprovoked disaster. Most of the crew members are locked in their respective cabins by the ship's security system. Inside, the crazy servitors were rioting, and the air-tight gates in the passage that opened and closed quickly were like gate knives, blocking the steps of the suppressing troops.

Watching the approaching hostile signals in the augury, Calgar realized that the current interception mission set by the empire had failed. If they did not leave, it would not be long before the Chaos fleet would completely engulf them.

"We can't waste any more time, notify the fleet to retreat immediately!"

However, his order did not receive a response from anyone. As the words fell, the giant once again looked at the mortal captain who was connected to the battleship through the command throne. At this time, the other person looked full of pain. .

In the midst of this chaos, a high-level technical priest came to Calgar.

"That [Ghost Signal] is interfering with the electronic systems within the ship. Currently, the available power of the Perseverance's engine is less than 47%, which is not enough to support us in escaping the pursuit of the Chaos Fleet."

After hearing such news, Calga was in an extremely irritable mood. It was obvious that the mysterious attackers did not want to let them go easily.

"Now we have found out the source of this signal. If we can destroy it, we may be able to stop the abnormal phenomena occurring in the fleet."

As the words fell, the data pad in the priest's hand was handed to Calgar. What was displayed on the tube screen emitting fluorescent green light was the weird-looking space hulk.

Now, under the continuous bombardment of the Imperial Fleet's large-caliber macro-cannon, the outer shell of the space hulk, which was wrapped in layers of ship wreckage and asteroid fragments, has shattered into countless fragments and scattered, leaving its internal core structure directly exposed. In a vacuum.

I saw that it was a strange building with an overall prismatic shape and a large number of strange mechanical structures on the surface. It was like two black stone fortresses overlapped one above another, and the entire hulk was built with that building as the core. What is stacked up is the source of the ghost signal.

According to the priest, it was that strange building that caused the abnormality in the ship's equipment. As long as it could be destroyed, the empire's interception fleet might still be able to fight against Chaos.

"If that's the case, destroy it! All artillery crews will switch targets immediately!"

The other party's words seemed to remind the chapter leader that under Calgar's order, the large-caliber macro cannon located on the upper deck of the Resolute successfully locked onto the mechanical building buried in the center of the hulk.

Fortunately, since most of the Imperial Navy's macroguns rely on the manual loading and activation of slave workers, thanks to this seemingly prophetic tradition, the existence of ghost signals has not had a great impact on the battleship's weapon system. Impact.

As blazing flames spewed out of the barrel, more than a dozen large-caliber shells were fired one after another, and the violent explosion swallowed up the entire space hulk almost instantly.

However, when the fire dissipated, it was observed that the direct attack from the macro cannon did not cause effective damage to it. Instead, such behavior seemed to anger it, causing the drone swarms surrounding it to begin to attack the surrounding ones. Imperial ships launched a more violent attack.

Various large and small turrets fired at each other, and along with the plasma clouds flying all over the sky, it was like weaving a huge network of lasers and artillery shells in the center of the battlefield, as if even the light of distant stars had been obscured.

Just as the battle between the two sides became more intense, just a few minutes later, the thing that worried Calgar the most finally happened.

"It's the Black Fleet! They're coming!"

Amidst the horrified shouts of a crew member, accompanied by the increasingly fierce subspace storm, a black shadow was seen in the star field not far away quickly from far to near, and soon appeared in In front of this imperial fleet.

It was a shadow that even the light of stars could not dispel. As the outline of the shadow became clearer, in the desperate eyes of the imperial commanders, a large fleet group had already made a short jump. Appeared in front of the chaotic imperial fleet.

The strange thing is that there are actually a large number of new warships that the Empire has never seen before. Their appearance looks so simple, and the design style is somewhat similar to those light warships of the Ashes Alliance. at.

However, the blasphemous runes representing the Black Legion engraved on the ship and the distorted hull that was obviously eroded by subspace are enough to prove that they are another masterpiece of those Chaos traitors. At the same time, this also successfully confirmed the identity of Chapter Master Calgar. Conjecture in mind.

——These Chaos traitors must be supported by a new force.

Just when the imperial fleet was in chaos, it was still despairing of the arrival of the forces of chaos.

As hundreds of portal-like hyperspace passages opened above the Imperial fleet, they looked like stars in the night sky from a distance.

As the light faded, in the blink of an eye a large silver fleet suddenly appeared near the orbit of the star, forming a sharp contrast with the rapidly approaching black fleet ahead. That was the main fleet of the Ashes Alliance.

Like a magic weapon descending from the sky, the appearance of the Alliance caused a short burst of cheers to erupt from the bridge of the Resolute. When he saw the crew's expressions of excitement as if they had seen the savior, Calga's mood at this moment could be described as It's extremely complicated.

Ashes League

What is your purpose of coming here?

On the other side, after receiving a request for help message from Calgar.

Without any hesitation, the alliance's three main fleets, a total of 300 warships with different functions, arrived at the battlefield immediately under the personal leadership of Otto, and this included almost all of the alliance's main forces in the alert system.

At the same time, some garrison fleets remaining within the Three Hundred Worlds were temporarily mobilized to the Vigilance Star under Otto's order. Even the orcs under Val and the Thorin Hive Fleet wandering on the edge of the Great Rift were also mobilized. They were summoned together.

To be honest, Otto has never been as nervous as he is now since time travel. The main reason why he reacted so strongly was because just before the Alliance fleet was about to set off, Gray Wind, who was following him, suddenly appeared in the galaxy. A familiar signal was detected.

At this moment, in the command hall of the Gray Gu mothership, the girl named Gray Wind was standing in front of the observation window of the bridge with a calm face, looking intently at the large number of strange-looking machines. fleet.

"I'm pretty sure that those battleships are some variant of the [Determinator]-class battleships."

The other party's voice was full of affirmation, and when he heard the news, Otto, who was standing in front of the fleet command podium, put his hands on the table and looked at what was displayed in front of the command podium seriously. 3D imaging.

Not long after, Hui Feng, who was standing in front of the window, sighed helplessly.

"There is no mistake. These things are 100% created by Su Zheng, but they look a little weird. There is no doubt that this will be a big trouble."

I didn't expect it to actually be it.

Although Clara did warn that these exterminators were about to awaken, it was too soon.

[Supreme Agreement] is a crisis event that exists in the Stars game. It is an intelligent system established by ancient civilizations to monitor the entire universe. Due to certain errors, it will now actively try to destroy everything in the universe. An intelligent individual.

As a super AI created by an ancient civilization, it has the special ability to use specific tachyon signals to indirectly control low-level artificial intelligence and interfere with mechanical units. This is the main reason that led to the outbreak of the Iron Man War.

"So you're saying that Chaos and Suzheng have reached some kind of cooperative relationship?"

To be honest, Otto didn't believe that these two forces would come together, but after seeing the symbol of Chaos printed on the solemn mechanical fleet with his own eyes, this had to make people suspicious.

Zheng Zheng and Chaos are really a wonderful combination of wolves being raped.

However, the girl in front of me seems to have a different view on this point of view.

"I don't think this is cooperation. The extermination ships in front of me are not linked to a unified core. Their intelligent systems have not been activated or have been removed. Those chaotic forces must have passed through some A special method to take possession of these warships produced from the mechanical planet."

"Interesting. In other words, the main body that controls these fleets is not the Sovereign Agreement? These mechanical warships are most likely stolen by the Chaos forces?"

Gray Wind did not deny this, and this obviously aroused Otto's great interest. He stared at the girl wearing a women's navy uniform in front of him. At this moment, countless conjectures emerged in his mind.

"Remember what Clara once said, it is very likely that there is a dormant mechanical planet in this universe. In order to eradicate this troublesome alliance, the alliance has sent many fleets to look for it, but even if I searched the entire galaxy but still found nothing."

"So in this case, where do you think that thing might be hidden?"

Faced with Otto's question, Gray Feng turned around silently, looked at the other party's thoughtful eyes and recalled the specialness displayed by the solemn fleet on the battlefield. After thinking for a while, he just listened. She expressed her suspicion in an uncertain tone.

"You mean that the mechanical planet might be hiding in subspace?"

In this regard, Otto was not in a hurry to confirm, but turned his attention to the Chaos fleet approaching the battlefield in the distance.

"If this is the case, it will not be difficult to explain the situations before us."

But having said that, will Gray Wind be affected by those ghost signals?

Thinking of this, Otto cast a concerned look in the direction of Gray Wind.

"Speaking of which, are you okay?"

"Me? Of course, I'm very good."

Gray Feng seemed somewhat surprised by this sudden concern.

"Although I admit that these guys are indeed a troublesome existence, it is not that easy to influence me."

The girl patted her arm confidently and struck a powerful pose to show her strength.

"Master, do you think I am not as good as her? This is really sad."

After saying that, this weird little guy made a weird expression in Otto's direction.

Seeing that the other party still had the energy to joke, the stone hanging in Otto's heart finally fell temporarily.

Not long after, as the distance between the two fleets became closer and closer, like a swarm of bees guarding a hive, hundreds of Gray Goo carrier-based aircraft released by the Gray Goo mothership were the first to engage this huge Chaos fleet. contact.

Under the control of those skilled clone pilots, the bomber squadron used amazing maneuverability to dodge the anti-aircraft firepower of the Chaos warships. The neutron torpedoes dropped one after another successfully slowed down the enemy ships, and the interceptor aircraft responsible for the escort were then They were fighting with the Chaos fighters that came later.

Since this was the first battle with the solemn fleet, out of caution, Otto did not let the fleet go too deep. Instead, he maximized the maneuverability of the destroyer hull and ordered multiple pre-organized strike formations to roam around. It reached the edge of the battlefield and poured out considerable firepower at the enemy ship group at a distance close to the maximum range of the artillery.

However, as a result, the situation of the imperial fleet caught in the center of the melee became more miserable. The slow-moving capital ships due to interference from ghost signals naturally became the main target of the Chaos side and were forced to assume the role of human shields. character of.

With the assistance of Gray Wind, the assault fleet led by Otto himself successfully locked onto the most valuable [Intelligent Core] located in the center of the battlefield. However, just before the energy arc main gun of the Gray Gu mothership was about to complete its energy gathering, hour.

As if aware of the danger approaching, Gray Feng suddenly frowned and turned to look at the left side of the ship. He then raised his hand to concentrate the energy of the ship in the shield, before Otto could ask what happened. .

In the gathering subspace storm in the distance, like a spear hiding in the darkness and suddenly stabbing out, a red laser torrent shot out without warning and hit the Gray Gu mothership accurately. the port side.

The violent particle beam collided with the continuously converging energy shield, and instantly burst out with a dazzling light comparable to a star. After the light dissipated, I saw that a head was gradually driving out of the chaotic storm. A ferocious-looking steel behemoth.

A terrifying planet killer.
