Warhammer: Hail to the Void Lords!

Father Ratty used the power circuit to connect to the Epic, and monitored the torpedo's reverse direction through the peripheral cameras on the Epic's hull.

Facing the incoming ion close-in defense cannon, Lati's face was too delicate to look like a living thing's calmness, and the torpedo made a dexterous twisting gesture like a water snake.

On the bridge.

"May the God Emperor protect us. Countdown to expected hit, 10——.9.——.8——"

He took out the pocket watch Thei had given him, pinched the stopwatch and said silently.

The fire whip dragged out by the ion cannon is getting closer and closer to the torpedo, and is about to catch up with the torpedo.

The railgun on the rear ridge of the hull also aimed again at the Epic, flashing a blue light.

"Captain! The laser sensor is alarming! The enemy's fort has locked onto our bridge. Please move to a safe area and get out of the way!" First Mate Archie persuaded Horatio to leave.

"No, I'm right here."

"7.—.6."

The torpedo entered the close defense zone of the Orca-class destroyer, and densely packed decoy bombs sprayed out, covering all aspects of interference including light, heat, noise, electromagnetic wave sources, etc., and able to counter almost all guidance methods.

But these blue-skinned aliens made a mistake. The torpedo fired by the Epic was wire-guided.

Wire-guided torpedoes certainly have many shortcomings: after the torpedo is fired, the ship cannot turn at a large angle to prevent the wire from being pulled off; the torpedo tube responsible for towing the wire cannot load the torpedo before hitting, otherwise the wire will also be cut off.

But within the distance of the wire, it can move flexibly and freely. Through the remote control of the craftsman's wise brain, even if the flight distance exceeds the length of the wire, it can speed in the direction of the final command, or cooperate with the torpedo seeker to guide itself.

There is no doubt that wire guidance is still the most reliable and interference-resistant torpedo guidance method even in the 41st millennium.

"Captain! You must get out of the way immediately. The enemy's railgun is about to be fully charged and is about to fire on the bridge!"

"3...2..."

Horatio was unmoved and was still counting the seconds. He believed that the enemy would never be able to fire this shot because there was no passive warning from the iron hand.

Moreover, one of the captain's responsibilities is to ensure the morale of the command and supervise whether the officers are correctly executing the instructions he issued.

He looked at Louise, who was already exhausted and had sweat on her forehead. She was slightly busy directing the war department to carry out countermeasures.

"Take your time, Louise. The macro cannon turns 3 degrees to the left."

"Yes! Captain. Correct three more times to the left, yes! Aim at the enemy weapon and fire!" Louise immediately understood Horatio's intention and gave the firing order to the gunnery officer.

A macro cannon fired first, hitting the twin-mounted light railgun in the middle of the Orca-class destroyer, blowing the turret to pieces and turning into fragments that floated away.

But there was still a railgun that was almost fully charged and aimed at the bridge of the Epic.

"Commander! Carry out an evasive maneuver on the lower plane, while ruddering in a circle to the left. Don't go too fast to prevent the wire from breaking." Horatio issued another maneuver command that would not affect the wire index too much.

"Yes! Captain! Turn the helm to the left!"

As the command bridge of the Epic became more and more busy, at the bottom of the command bridge, there was the torpedo control room.

"I caught you, Fufufu~"

Father Ratty swayed her chest, which was tightly covered by the holy cassock, and let out a familiar and charming chuckle that was disturbing.

The moment he was about to be overtaken by the ion cannon line.

The huge Helios torpedo suddenly changed its trajectory downwards like a diver. After avoiding the line of fire, it almost immediately raised its head and headed straight into the belly of the destroyer.

puff! call!

The entire hull seemed to be pierced by Thor's spear. In the blink of an eye, the fierce and ferocious explosion caused the warship to be dismembered.

No xenomorph could survive the explosion that engulfed the entire ship.

The terrifying charged blue light of the magnetic rail acceleration coil disappeared from everyone's eyes, and everyone on the ship breathed a sigh of relief. Many people were shocked to realize that they were already covered in cold sweat.

"We killed her!"

"yeah!"

Danger was everywhere, and the officers and soldiers on the bridge cheered.

But Horatio just put his hands behind his uniform, pursed his lips and teeth, said nothing, and did not relax at all.

Looking straight at the wreckage of the destroyer that was still burning and exploding in the void.

"Xiao Yao, do you think Captain Horatio was scared just now?" Tei leaned by the gate of No. 1, folding her arms leisurely, and asked her female companion with a sweet smile.

"I don't think he's afraid." The girl's planner said. Her hand holding the book had wet finger marks on it:

"He seemed to be saying to the other side, 'This is a duel. Either you die today or I die.' Perhaps it is because of his calm courage in the face of danger that he can achieve what he does today."

one,

"You have a point." Thei looked at the tight white velvet gloves behind Horatio's back and smiled meaningfully.

"Gentlemen, the battle is not over yet." Horatio twisted his white velvet gloves unconsciously and looked out the window of the sea of ​​fire and said:

"It's time to use macro cannons to get rid of those transport ships that are still lingering in orbit."

He breathed a sigh of relief, and the gloves he squeezed tightly in his hands were soaked with sweat. With a little force, water could even be squeezed out.

This kind of aftershock made him unconsciously recall the duel process just now, and he replayed the entire raid in his mind with lingering fear.

He thought carefully, checked every instruction and operation he issued, and considered with a reflective mentality whether there was a better decision.

Afraid? Of course he was afraid. Who dared to say that he was not afraid of death at all? That was the instinctive emotion of living things.

But in this game of top-level, he would put all fears behind his mind, and his mind would only instill in himself all the time, 'I didn't lose, I will win, and it is you who will die, not me. '

With this calm and slightly rebellious self-confidence, he would devote all his thoughts to the death battle in front of him with his adrenaline soaring, and would not be affected by negative emotions.

After winning the battle, the lingering fear of this brush with death would help him to review the battle just now and learn from experience, so that he could perform better in similar situations in the future.

Time went back to before the First Attack Squadron launched a torpedo attack on the Tau Empire's transport fleet in orbit.

Basor ground, Badongmo three war zone.

"Three-three formation! Watch the side!"

"The high point has been taken! Heavy weapons team, set up firepower, cover the open area."

The officers and soldiers of the Cathay Triumphal Army deployed their battle formations in an orderly manner. Although they suffered some casualties in the previous encounter, they quickly cooperated with the Astartes of the Ultramarines to gain a foothold and skillfully carried out street fighting in accordance with the Ultramar Tactical Regulations rather than the manual of the Military Affairs Department.

They did not blindly believe the rumors that the Tau Empire troops were weak in close combat. As long as they seized the opportunity, the Cathay Triumphal Army would crush the enemy's front line with surging firepower, and cooperate with the Space Marines and main battle tanks, rolling forward like an unshakable bulldozer.

When the situation seemed to be stable, suddenly, a large number of huge wasps flapping their wings flew over, covering the sky and the sun.

These wasp aliens, called Malko, are extremely fast. Their wings will flash a high-frequency vibration that is not easy to be detected by human ears. The neutron blasters they hold will also cause terrible damage to the imperial officers and soldiers and bunkers within the range, similar to the heavy incinerator plasma weapons of the human empire.

These aliens come and go like the wind, and their whereabouts are hard to find. Many soldiers were shattered by neutron weapons before they noticed the threat above their heads.

Even if they found them, the laser guns in their hands alone could not keep up with the speed of the wasps wandering in the sky.

The Triumphal Army commandos who controlled the tower were their key targets. Once the terminal was taken down by the Tau Empire armed forces, the imperial officers and soldiers within a radius of several kilometers would be exposed to this group of aerial hunters.

The Tiger commandos held their positions and launched a fierce counterattack with the Ultramar precision hell guns in their hands.

Whoosh! A neutron explosion hit the corridor.

Several commandos leaped forward, trying to avoid the attack and enter the bunker, but they failed.

"Oh! These bastards!" The commando sergeant adjusted his round-frame glasses that were broken during the tactical maneuver, turned his head and looked at the blood of a commando's corpse stuck on the wall, and cursed angrily.

Then he adjusted the Hell Gun to the maximum firing rate, leaned out from behind the bunker, and swept towards the Tau Empire tactical team defending the terminal, shooting several fire warriors who were crouching and preparing to infiltrate the first floor into sieves, and successfully suppressed the other fire warrior teams that were ready to move.

Just as the Wasp Man was unscrupulously dominating the sky, a string of heavy bolts shot into the sky, quickly shooting down several Wasp Man, blowing them up in mid-air, and the dark green disgusting body fluids fell sparsely on the ground.

Several Land Speeders rushed over to cover the Rhino Troop Carrier.

Half a company of Astartes jumped down from behind.

"Battle brothers, we must support these mortals."

"Tactical focus! Focus on the Wasp Aliens."

As the tactical instructions were issued, the Astartes of the Doomsday Eagles used their advanced aiming systems and extraordinary reaction abilities after genetic modification to raise their bolters or other special weapons, and with fierce firepower, they accurately annihilated the Wasp Aliens running around in the sky.

Suddenly, the Astartes on the far side sensed some unnoticed movement.
