Warhammer III

"When was the last time this black stone fortress was opened?"

Sisela curiously asked how Drake knew the specific time when the entrance opened.

"It's half a year ago. I've been here for two years. The opening time of the entrance here is relatively fixed, but the first three times those who entered were alien creatures and rebellious Astartes, so we have never dared to go in."

"Chaos Space Marines! Didn't they attack you?"

Sisera became even more curious. Chaos heretics were murderous, but they became more at ease here.

"If you fight here, you will be attacked by weapons from above. We also deliberately avoided those heretics."

"What weapon?"

"The raised square pyramid building on the fortress is a weapon. The two alien aircraft that were fighting in the melee were evaporated by the lightning released from above!"

Drake said with some understanding. Fortunately, he was far away at the time, otherwise he would have been affected by the destructive energy.

"Are these heretics?"

Taiyue stepped forward, and the servo-head projected the Chaos Space Marines of Abiel's Claw into the air.

Drake squinted his eyes and looked at it carefully. The projection was relatively dim, and it should have been taken during the battle. When he saw the symbol on the heretic's right shoulder, he said loudly:

"Your Majesty the God-Emperor, these are the enemies. The heretics headed by them also wear helmets decorated with devil horns."

Tai Yue frowned and immediately shared the information with the Ninth Brotherhood and the Great Sage Caul. The Chaos Space Marines of Abiel's Claw had entered the Blackstone Fortress.

After confirming the information, Taiyue promised to Drake and others that he would take them into the Blackstone Fortress.

Jerome and others then came to this cabin, waiting for the entrance to the Blackstone Fortress to open. Without this space station, the oxygen on the Thunder Eagle gunship would not be enough to sustain it for more than ten days.

The hostile forces here are all going to Blackstone Fortress, so there is no need to destroy this temporary foothold. This is also the reason why there is peace inside this alien space station.

After Drake saw more Astartes coming here, he took the initiative to get close to Taiyue and others and began to chat about his business experience.

When Tai Yue listened to Drake's adventure story, he couldn't help but think of the little girl Su Yue from the Su's Trading Dynasty whom he met on the way to the Sun Star Territory. When the astropath Su Jingrong left the Su's Trading Fleet and came to the Uruk, It is mentioned that Su Yue has grown up and taken over the Su family's business dynasty, and now it is unknown where she is in the galaxy.

"Your Excellency, God Emperor, which war group do you all belong to? We may be able to help you transport goods and carry out trade in the future."

Drake suddenly said that establishing contact with the Astartes Chapter would have many benefits for the Rogue Traders.

"If you don't want to have your memory deleted, it's best not to inquire about us!"

Jerome said in a cold tone. Derek felt a knot in his heart and stopped asking any more questions. He knew that the Astartes were not good men and women, and many war groups could be considered local warlords.

More than ten days passed quickly. After the Black Stone Fortress was slightly shaken, an entrance with a diameter of more than fifty meters was opened directly above the space station. The black stones at the entrance were arranged in a spiral shape like a step.

The plasma tail flames of the Thunderhawk gunship streaked through the void between the space station and the Blackstone Fortress. The landing craft of the Mechanicum and the small fighter plane of the Rogue Trader Drake followed closely and entered the interior of the Blackstone Fortress.

The empty hall inside is presented to everyone, with spire-shaped towers arranged on the ground and above the hall, like interlaced canine teeth. The bottom of the tower is connected to another adjacent tower through a twisted corridor, and the interior is a dense maze of rooms.

"Boom boom boom!"

When everyone's aircraft began to dock on the nearest tower, intensive artillery fire poured from the front. The two parked Mechanicus landing craft had no time to react and exploded. The Skitarii inside were buried in the sea of ​​​​fire.

"Hellclaw fighter of the Abir's Claw warband!"

Taiyue immediately raised the Thunderhawk gunship, and the twin heavy bombs were released. The Mechanicum landing craft next to him also began to use twin laser cannons to counterattack.

After a fierce air battle, three Hellclaw fighters exploded directly. The last Hellclaw fighter was hit on the wing and fell on the tower. Two Chaos Space Marines climbed out of the Hellclaw fighter. They used the tower wall as a base. Take cover and continue attacking the Thunderhawk gunship with your bolters.

The hatch of the Thunderhawk gunship opened immediately, and Jerome jumped out alone. The Star Magic Book on his body controlled gravity to allow him to land smoothly on the ground, and then walked towards the two Chaos Space Marines.

Jerome easily dodged the enemy's explosive bombs, and when he was preparing to kill the enemy directly with a psychic lightning bolt, he realized that psychic powers could not be used inside the tower, so he sprinted closer to the enemy and avoided the first enemy's chain sword. After slashing, he quickly executed the first enemy with his psychic scimitar, and then fired a psychic bomb at close range to blow out the heart of another enemy.

"You cannot use psychic powers here, and you cannot teleport the Terminator team and the Interceptor team!"

Jerome said in shock, and Taiyue had already parked the Thunderhawk gunboat on the tower. He ordered Della and Adrian to stay on the Thunderhawk gunboat, ready to support at any time. Others would explore the entire Black Rock with Taiyue. Fortress, find a way to control this black stone.

Great Sage Caul's troops stopped on multiple towers. In addition to a small team of Skitarii guarding the landing craft, he led three other teams of Skitarii and three Starfall robots to also begin to explore the black stone. fortress.
