Warhammer Inquisitor Chapter 405

  Chapter 405 The Road to Expedition: Piercing the Dagger

On the orbit of the fortress world, the huge star port revolves around the boundary of the planet. It is huge and burly, and its steel surfaces are parallel to each other. It rotates itself in the outer orbit of the planet in a ring structure, and it relies on the slowness of the planet itself. Rotating slowly due to the force of rotation, layers of steel decks are spliced ​​together, gradually illuminated by the rising sun at the twilight line on the eastern side of the planet.

Sunlight slowly shone across the surface of the silver-white armor, just like a wheat field illuminated by the dawn at dawn, and the silver-gray armor turned into a light golden yellow in the sun, like ripe wheat in the autumn wind. Swaying and waiting for the seed pockets to be picked and crushed to extract the edible grains from them.

But suddenly, the "wheat" in the golden field broke itself, and an explosion occurred on the surface of the armor that was tanned golden in the sun. The soaring fire tore out from the surface of the armor, and the broken hole broke through the steel. , a long tongue of flame sprayed out from under it.

Tongues of flame rose from the surface of the star port, as if the natural gas drilled from the ground had been ignited. A huge pillar of fire rushed into the sky, and soon there were more explosions on the surface of the star port around it. , The raging fire swept across the entire golden armor surface.

Fiery flames spewed into the air, and several fighter planes passed through the fire cloud at once. The star shark bombers painted in the colors of the Imperial Navy rushed through the fire cloud quickly. They swooped down and whizzed away. There was a dense bomb rain in the airspace, and behind the leading fighter, several bombers were hit by artillery fire and exploded.

  But the leading bomber and the remaining fighters passed through the hail of bullets, and they quickly passed through it, dodging the dense bullet rain and rushing towards a moving battleship.

The leading Xingsha bomber slid out two torpedo warheads from its belly, and the twin torpedoes were launched at once, spouting fire and spinning at high speed in the universe, hitting one side of the battleship, bombing the rest of the fuselage. The bombers also fired torpedoes.

The torpedoes flying at high speed and changing angles surrounded each other, pulled out a graceful arc, and then hit the side of the warship. The armored surface was quickly penetrated, and the explosion tore under it. In the huge explosion, the Star Shark bomber turned sharply in front of the ship and flew out in a detour.

The bomber whizzed out from the side of the hull, but its wings were instantly interrupted by a whistling anti-aircraft artillery fire. After the wing of the fighter plane broke off, flames sprayed from the gap, and the fighter plane was lost in the gorgeous battlefield curtain. The balance rotated at a high speed, and then it hit something and exploded instantly.

  Below the flames of the explosion, the surface of the flickering shield danced brightly, and a huge battleship that was pitch-black as a whole passed above the flames, and one side of it was swept by the churning flames.

On one side the shining void shield flickered to hold back the flames, and on the other side of that shining shield, below the fading border of the glow, as the sun's rays spilled over the black surface, and under that glow , Several thick muzzles stick out.

The deafening volley sounded instantly, and the roaring macro muzzle instantly ejected dazzling fireballs. Under the raging fire, several spinning shells whizzed out, and they slid through the faint light curtain projected by the distant sun. It slammed into a piece of armor.

A ferocious explosion sounded in an instant, and the huge explosion impact shattered the side of the sailing imperial battleship. One side of the battleship was torn apart instantly, and raging fire spurted out from the inside, and the leaked oxygen poured into the vacuum. , Instantly spread the raging fire to cover one side of the entire hull.

The flames swept across the battleship's body quickly, and then a martyrdom explosion occurred suddenly. A huge fireball expanded and rose from the fire cloud, and the two halves of the battleship's body were thrown up during the explosion. Flying out, the golden sky eagle on the side of the bow reflected its luster under the raging fire.

Under the shattered bow, a huge battleship rushed out of the flames. Its body swept out from the fire cloud, stirring the surrounding fire and rushing forward. It sailed quickly, The macro cannons on one side fired one after another, bombarding the Chaos battleship on the other side with rapid shells.

The shining void shield instantly lit up, and the explosive fire swept across the shield, and under the fire, there was a silver steel skull logo on both sides, and the double row of macro cannons roared quickly, shooting out the rotating shells. In front of the burning flames, under the roar of the heavy artillery, the chaos warships behind it also started to shoot rapidly.

The howling shells shot through the curtain of the universe, and the dense warheads passed under the sun's rays, and hit the side of the imperial fleet that was sailing against the sun's rays. The flames and explosions instantly became more shining than the sun. Soaring up, roaring and roaring in the silent universe.

The Empire and the Chaos Fleet fired fiercely at each other in the outer orbit of the planet. The macro artillery shells flew over the light of the sun, and the dazzling light flashed through the light curtain in an instant. They hit the battleships on both sides of each other fiercely. The flash exploded immediately, piercing through the void shield and bombarding the Chaos Battleship itself.

The chaotic giant ship was pierced through the back by the light spear in an instant, and the high-rise buildings there collapsed under the light, and directly in front of its sailing direction, an imperial warship was approaching rapidly from the direction the beam of light came from. When the bright plasma propeller spewed out from one side flew quickly, the side macro guns fired at the same time, striking the Chaos battleship on one side with the rapid shells.

The black hull shattered and collapsed under the bombardment of the shells. The warhead with the Imperial Skyhawk logo on one side rotated at high speed and rushed towards the side of the chaotic hull. It exploded after entering its structure, and the flames quickly spread along the side corridors of the entire battleship, the glass was shattered, and the flames of the explosion sprayed out from all places.

The thrusters of the Chaos battleship went out instantly, and the hull slid forward feebly for a certain distance before exploding from the inside. The huge fireball pierced the side of the battleship, shining the fire on the imperial destroyer rushing forward. The silent angel statue on the back is completely illuminated by the huge fireball rising from the side, and the golden long sword raised high is also shining with a flowing halo under the flame.

The blade pointed to the forward position, and the destroyer fired a long row of torpedoes instantly during the charge. The torpedoes with flashing red light spouted fierce fire, and quickly smashed into several chaotic warships rushing parallel to the opposite side. First, the void shield flickered there instantly.

Among them, the Chaos frigate closest to the front row, the void shield on the bow was instantly pierced by the light spear of the imperial destroyer. The dazzling beam of light shattered the towering building on the back of the frigate, and pierced through the front of the bridge. The long row of buildings on the back were all smashed into steel wreckage floating in the universe.

Floating powerlessly in the void, the frigate suddenly slammed into another chaotic warship. The void shields of the two ships collided violently, and then broke their shields instantly and then the hulls collided with each other. The frigate's ship The head plunged into the belly of another boat like a dagger, and the fire gushed out from the wound like blood.

The Imperial destroyer continued to move forward under the roar of the shining plasma thrusters, but suddenly his side was also violently bombarded, and the void shield instantly broke after flickering violently. , the huge dark Mechanicus battle patrol slowly passed by, and the automatic weapon array on one side turned its muzzle and fired rapidly at the imperial warship below.

The rapid-fire cannon, the multi-tube turbolaser and the light spear lighted up at the same time, piercing through the entire side of the imperial warship at an extremely fast rate of fire. The hull was punched into countless tunnels, and the thrusters of the battleship were also blasted by a blast. After the flashing lance pierced through, it turned off instantly, and the destroyer stopped slowly. The fire from the end of the thruster ignited the fuel tank, turning into a larger explosive fireball.

The destroyer suddenly exploded from the rear side, and the bursting fireball instantly tore the entire ship from the end. Its whole body caught fire in the explosion and then shattered and floated away. Finally, it turned into a series of chain explosion fires that illuminated the entire ship. The dark Mechanician battlecruiser on the side.

The huge propeller at the end of the dark red Mechanicus battlecruiser ignited at full speed, and it rushed past the flames rushing from the side, and the flickering nova cannon on the bow quickly lit up, and then instantly turned into a line rushing forward The huge beam of light pierced through an imperial cruiser directly ahead.

The battleship was pierced from the head by a cannonball, and a shining beam of light shot out from the center of its propeller. The explosion occurred from all parts of the entire battleship in an instant. The monstrous fire engulfed the magnificent outer buildings, and the macro that fired fiercely around. The artillery and automatic guns fired a final round of artillery fire before exploding.

That final roar resulted in the death of a cruiser of the same level as Chaos. The cruiser flying parallel to him exploded violently, and the armored wreckage flew around in the flames, smashing towards the side like a bolide. The coming Dark Mechanician Battleship, the Mechanician's battleship smashed away the flying wreckage, and things were ahead quickly.

It passed between the countless battleships around, and Chaos and the fleet of the empire came into contact with each other, firing fiercely at each other at a very close range, just like a group of ancient cavalry caught in a chaotic battle, they swung their swords and slashed at each other. The armor was dented, and the rider fell off his horse.

The entire starry sky was filled with chaotic explosions. The Chaos Fleet never expected that since the Empire would take the initiative to attack, they thought that the exhausted and weak Empire Fleet would maintain a defensive posture in front of a Chaos army twice as large as their own, so The Chaos fleet was not prepared to defend, but to attack.

What they didn't expect at all was that when the Chaos Fleet was just about to set sail, the Imperial Fleet suddenly appeared on the twilight line of the planet, charging over in groups from the back of the shadow, and they charged and fired fiercely. , instantly dispersed the formation of the Chaos Fleet, and finally switched offense and defense, and the huge fleet fell into a tragic close-range melee.

  The battle cruiser of the Dark Mechanicus raised its bow, and it fired fiercely from both sides, rushing through the chaotic fleet that burned the entire star sea, and blasted the nova cannon forward again.

The shining beam of light hit an oncoming imperial warship, and the body of the ship exploded under the bombardment of more artillery fire afterwards. A burst of flames gushed out from both sides of the ship, sweeping across the front of the battle cruiser in an instant. In the starry sky, the dark Mechanicus warship rushed up, towards the huge fire cloud.

But suddenly, a huge shadow outline was drawn from the flames, and soon a golden color larger than all the battleships present sailed out from the surface of the flames, and its huge hull was directly facing the dark machine. Jiao Zhanxun rushed up, and the latter was almost impossible to dodge at such a short distance.

The battlecruiser turned to one side to escape, but the giant ship slammed into the side of the battlecruiser at once. The shining void shield of the ship collided with the battlecruiser in an instant, and was shattered by the stronger void shield. The shield of the battle cruiser, the ship was instantly split in half by the magnificent golden battleship, and a rapid explosion exploded in front of the hull.

The giant golden ship broke through the waves of the explosion, the light spear turret above its body flashed instantly, and a huge golden beam of light shot out instantly, directly sweeping across the body of a chaotic battleship beside it. A huge glowing wound was opened.

The warship exploded in space in an instant, and the light illuminated the towering huge hull on the side of the giant ship, as well as the multi-layered macro-cannons arranged on it. Hundreds of macro-cannons fired at the same time. The roar of the muzzle sprayed out a wall of raging fire, and within it, raindrops of macrocannon shells hit the Chaos fleet on the side, and they all exploded violently.

The explosion flames of those battleships shone on the hull of the golden giant ship, and the battleship roared and sprayed out a long propulsion flame to move forward, and above the light of the fire, the light spear turret on the back of the hull rotated to light a beam of light to the side, And at the end of the array of countless roaring barrages and missiles, above the tall and huge fortress building, the firelight also illuminated the space inside the bridge.

  Captain Reina stood on the high platform of the bridge. She raised her head to look at the explosions that filled the sky, then turned around and strode to the edge of the captain's platform. "First officer, how is the progress of the battlefield?"

"Two-thirds of the vanguard fleet has been lost, but the preset task has been completed, the formation of the chaos fleet has been completely disrupted, and the remaining fleet is completing the task of cutting." Standing under the captain's platform, Yeta stood in a picture surrounded by Said between her holograms, her eyes fixed on the screens around her, green flashes mixed with explosions lighting her face.

"Very good, order the vanguard fleet to start retreating, helmsman, the whole ship accelerates to replace the attacking position, and penetrate the chaotic front." Reina leaned on the armrest and stared ahead and said loudly. He pulled down the golden handle, and the violent machine spirit in the engine was instantly released.

The huge plasma thruster propelled the flames, and as the turbofan of the main propeller of the Mirage spread out in an instant, the huge fire stream pushed the huge battleship from the side of the astrolabe into the battlefield, and the magnificent giant ship roared. Rushing towards the chaotic orbit of the planet, the light spear above its head turned around, firing a dazzling beam of light forward in an instant.

The void shield of the chaotic frigate that fired forward on the planet's distant orbit disappeared almost instantly. The shield did not even persist for a moment under the bombardment of the powerful light spear of the Phantasm, and the shield surface flickered and disappeared. But the light spear didn't, it continued to shoot down and directly penetrated the hull, bombarded the shattered battleship, and then hit another chaotic battleship below.

The giant pillars of light spears fired continuously pierced through all the chaos fighters in the entire line in an instant, and they lit up countless fireballs in the night sky, and in the lit flames, the Phantasm had already rushed into After entering the battle formation, countless weapons on both sides of it roared and opened fire, and the multi-layer macro guns fired continuously from end to end, and countless explosions lit up on both sides of Mirage in an instant.

Reina stood on the high platform, she stared at the rain-like roaring barrage from ahead, the explosion instantly lit up a flash of light on the void shield on the front side of the battleship, and on both sides of the bridge, those billowing bullets Smoky Imperial warships were also sliding back from the sides, and they retreated from the Mirage, who took over the assault post.

   "Order the rear fleet, continue to divide the Chaos fleet, give priority to destroying their more maneuverable small and medium-sized warships, and save the large warships for hunting. The main attack task is now under the command of Admiral Speyer. How are they doing?"

Reina looked down from a high place and asked, while Yeta below her pulled a holographic screen, and she glanced at it, "The Gothic fleet has successfully attacked, they have defeated the chaotic flank fleet, the Eldar's The fleet intercepted and dispersed the Chaos assembled fleet on the back of the planet, they suddenly appeared and caught Chaos by surprise."

   "Our active attack was obviously beyond Chaos' expectations, and everything went smoothly. Admiral Speyer is commanding the siege, and he took over the command of the fleet by receiving the signal."

"Very good, now we are going to carry out our mission, the whole ship is free to fire, and advance at full speed." Reina said calmly, and the bridge crew on the consoles on both sides below her immediately pressed the buttons on the terminals in front of her. , following the execution of the program, the Phantasm rushed into the Chaos Fleet's line, and the light spears continued to flash and shot out in all directions, strafing and pulling a straight line of light in the air.

The macro cannon roared and fired at both sides of the cavalry. The Mirage was passing between the two Chaos Battle Cruisers at the moment. The Chaos fighters on both sides were hit by hundreds of macro cannon shells in an instant. The support flickered and disappeared, and then it was the turn of the two battleships to usher in bad luck.

In a rapid explosion, the huge hull of the Phantasm rushed through it at once. The magnificent giant ship broke away from the offensive echelon of the empire, and the lone army penetrated deeply into the terminal defense line composed of dozens of warships throughout the chaos. The defense line that was strong enough to stop the Empire's assault attack was instantly torn open a gap, and the Mirage rushed in through it.

Reina stood on the high position of the captain, her eyes looked around the exploding range, the entire Phantasm's hull was filled with countless explosive fireballs, but the void shield still defended the hull firmly, even facing several times Focusing on his enemy ships, the powerful void shield generator has been supporting the defense of the entire ship for a long time.

Reina lowered her head, but just as she lowered her head, she heard a huge explosion. The explosion shook the entire bridge, shaking everything here. Reina suddenly raised her head and looked forward Amidst the flames, a huge beam of light bombarded the battleship's shield.

"Report the situation." Reina asked calmly standing on a high place. She stood with the handrails in the midst of the shock, while Yeta shook on the flat ground below her, but after she spread her legs, she still Standing firm in the shock, Yeta immediately raised his head and retrieved it on the data interface in front of him.

"The bow and side of the ship were hit and bombarded by the Nova Cannon of the Dark Mechanicus Fleet. It seems that they have transferred the general reserve team to deal with us." Yeta said and suddenly saw the Bird Radar coming from the emergency jump. The interface flickered red light frantically, and several rapidly approaching red dots appeared on it.

  Yetta looked at the red dots, quickly clicked on them, and a row of information icons flashed, "The Astartes strike cruiser is approaching rapidly, and they are trying to attack us."

"Weapon array, destroy them." Lena slammed a fist on the armrest and said sharply, her order was immediately carried out, the automatic muzzle on the side of the battleship turned quickly, and a light spear also turned. Three Chaos Space Marine strike cruisers galloping forward.

The three warships rushed towards the Mirage, the shining propellers propelled them like shooting stars in the night sky, the spinning spear turret aimed at them, and golden arcs danced out of the flashing light from the muzzle , and then a cannon shot out and bombarded one of the leading strike cruisers.

The void shield of the battleship disappeared under the firepower of the Mirage in an instant, and the light spear pierced through the side of the back of the battleship, burning a straight tunnel on the back of the battleship. With a bright high-temperature light band, a raging fire was burning on the strike cruiser, but it still rushed down towards the Mirage.

The automatic muzzles on the back of the battleship were all lifted up, and dense barrage rose from it in an instant. The rain-like barrage bombarded the advancing strike cruiser that swooped down from above, and countless explosion flames rose from it. Then, it was torn into pieces in the blink of an eye.

The torn apart strike cruiser turned into countless wreckages and fell from the air. The fragments of the battleship roared and hit the top shield of the Mirage. The shining void shield blocked all the falling fragments, and they burned and exploded on the back of the battleship. For the shattered residue floating in space.

And after the exploding strike cruiser, the second Space Marine battleship rushed down, it swooped towards the Mirage, Reina looked up at the shining point of the battleship and raised her arm to point at it, "Gunner! Destroy it."

Behind the light spear turret of the first one, the second light spear was slowly lifted up, and its muzzle rotated to aim at the roaring strike cruiser. With a burst of flickering light, the light spear fired instantly. Going up, it pierced through the rear propeller of the strike cruiser from the side of the inclined surface.

The strike cruiser lost its balance in an instant, and the exploding propeller instantly caused the whole ship to catch fire. The burning hull vibrated violently in the air and smashed down with a roar. Reina looked up at the incoming battleship, but it did not dodge. , did not evade, but rushed straight forward, staring at all the firepower of the Mirage hitting the back of the battleship.

The huge strike cruiser crashed into the void shield, a huge plasma explosion rose from the outside of the bridge, and a powerful shock wave spread along the back of the ship to the entire ship, and there were strong tremors in the entire bridge Sensation made Reina lean on the armrest all of a sudden.

   "The whole ship reports the situation!" Lena stood up and said loudly, Yeta below also stood up from the ground again, she stretched out her hand to pull down the floating interface, and looked at the beating warning window above.

   "The flanking void shields have been weakened, and the system is being recharged. It is expected" Yeta hadn't said a word, and a violent explosion flashed on the side of the bridge. It was a precise macro artillery salvo.

Only the third remaining Space Marine strike cruiser swooped down from above the battleship. The huge hull quickly lifted up when it reached the Phantasm, and the recoil engine in its belly was fired at full power, crushing almost all mortals on board to death. The ultrhigh overload force achieved an instant stop, allowing the diving warship to stop instantly.

The moment the battleship stopped on the side of the Mirage, the sideboard macro gun fired, and the fierce artillery bombarded the side shield of the battleship, and the corner of the void shield on the side of the huge ship flickered and shrank around. Suddenly, a circular gap appeared on the azure shield, and the strike cruiser also seized this opportunity.

In the blink of an eye, countless flashes shot out from the side of the ship. It was a dozen or so space warriors jumping into the landing pod. They all shot out from the belly of the ship in one go, spouting fire at the end, and smashed into the head of the Mirage. With side armor, the defensive firepower at such a short distance is too late to intercept in time.

The automatic cannon on the side of the ship quickly turned around and fired fiercely at the landing cabin. The roaring strafing barrage hit several landing cabins in an instant, and those deathclaw hollow heads instantly exploded into burning fireballs in the starry sky. , the space fighters among them were also instantly killed together.

  However, nearly ten landing pods still smashed into the inner deck of the battleship. The melt jets at their fronts ignited instantly, and the melt rays opened a channel in the armor for them to smash in.

Yeta looked at the internal system of the warship that was alarming in front of her. She clicked on the provocative window in front of her, then raised her head and looked at Reina above, "Captain, decks 7 and 3 have been jumped, interstellar Warriors have invaded the interior of the hull, should I contact the Marshal and the Wailers?"

"No, you don't need to contact them. They still have their own mission. Notify the Sun Auxiliary Army to destroy the invading traitor Astartes." Reina leaned on the armrest and said, he turned his head and looked at the side of the battleship hovering Strike cruisers.

   "Chief Bird, have we arrived at the scheduled location?" Reina asked loudly, and the Chief Bird below also scanned the screen in front of him, then raised his head to look at Lei Na's position and nodded abruptly.

   "To reach the sky above the coordinates, but the void shield needs to be recharged, captain, we need time to reorganize the defense."

   "We won't stay here for too long, Yeta, tell Vito, I've found him the ride he wants." Reina said, looking at the strike cruiser beside her.

   "Notice to land on the torpedo launch deck, and prepare to jump gang."
