Prayer cleansesthesoul, butpaincleansesthebody. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

While the frigate was bombing Hive City, the Struggle also began to stop in outer space 10,000 kilometers away from Kriddick, firing eight reconnaissance torpedoes into the surrounding cosmic star field.

The reconnaissance torpedo flew into the distance, and sent out a large number of reconnaissance radio waves to reconnoiter the distant star field and feed the results back to the Fight.

"The detection signal is stable, and there is no anomaly in the distance!"

On the bridge of the Struggle, the radar officer looked at Captain Lambert and reported on his work, and the projector in front of him was projecting the environment of the star field around the Fight, and no abnormalities were found.

Captain Lambert sat in his chair and gestured with his hands over the console, and the projector image on the console suddenly changed rapidly.

Captain Lambert did not find anything unusual in the image projected on this projector through his modified brain and prosthetic eye, but in a cautious mind, Captain Lambert ordered again.

"Order the cabin to release a reconnaissance squad and order them to conduct free reconnaissance around."

"Yes, Captain!"

After giving this order, although Captain Lambert was still a little uneasy in his heart, he had already done everything that could be done, so Captain Lambert also waited for the frigate to complete the bombardment and pack up the fleet as soon as possible in order to retreat.

However, while the six frigates were busy bombing the three hive cities of the planet Clidick, and the Struggle was on alert, a giant ship quietly approached the Struggle.

This massive ship, judging by its broad surface shape and rounded lines, as well as a barespear turret at the front of the ship, is a typical Rogue merchant ship.

This type of merchant ship has the advantages of large capacity, low fuel consumption and high range. The disadvantage is that the starting speed is slow, the armament is weak, and there is only a light spear battery in front, which is an armament that is better than nothing, and it is estimated that this fort usually does the most thing, which is to hit the meteorites on the channel and the orbital mines that fall everywhere, and it is used for very little purpose in combat.

After all, although this turret is powerful, with only one turret, slow shooting and amateur shooters make the lethality of this light spear turret almost none.

However, generally speaking, this kind of armed merchant ship is not suitable for combat because it is larger than a battle cruiser, and it is used for long cross-galaxy voyages for commercial operations, which is the role of such a giant armed merchant ship.

However, the exterior of this giant armed merchant ship was surrounded by red mist, and even the cosmic environment of the vacuum could not stop the thick mist from flowing slowly on the merchant ship.

Obviously, this is a ship that has been corrupted by Chaos psionic energy, and the forces that are now occupying this ship speak for themselves.

And now, this giant armed merchant ship is heading towards the Endeavor at an almost slow speed, and whether it is the Endeavor or other frigates, the reconnaissance waves and detectors they emitted seem to be strangely undetected, this giant ship surrounded by red mist, even the reconnaissance plane on its shoulders has a flight towards this strange mist, but a strange and mysterious force invaded the pilot's brain, changing his cognition and vision, Ignore the massive chaos giant hidden in the mist.

This Chaos Giant Ship was the same Wandering Rogue ship occupied by the Chaos Lord of Tracy, and at this moment, in the bridge above this Chaos Giant Ship, a thaumaturgical thaumancer wearing a dark and gorgeous style Chaos Mage robes was holding an ancient book high in his right hand, brandishing the Chaos Scepter in his left hand, and shouting in a hoarse, echoing voice.

"Fools, slow down, don't let the ship go too fast, my spell can only hide the slow-moving ship.

A little slower, a little slower!! ”

At the urging of the leader of the thaumaturgists, the Chaos heretics carefully maintained the course speed of the giant ship, striving to make the tail flame of the Chaos giant ship a little smaller.

The urging of the leader of the treacherous thaumaturgists made the Chaos heretics who were operating the ship more cautious, after all, the Fight was quite different from the giant ship he was on in terms of body shape, but the body shape sometimes did not represent combat effectiveness, especially this Chaos giant ship itself was not a combat battleship, if it really knew how to fight on a cruiser, even the leader of the thaumaturgists himself did not have the confidence to win.

And now, they dare to use Chaos psionic spells to hide the ship, and the confidence of sneaking is that this ship is transporting a large number of Chaos heretics and Chaos Space Marines, these guys are all reinforcements hired by the Chaos Lord Tracy before the war.

And now, the leader of the thaumaturgists is ready to use the psionic spells he casts to prepare for a surprise sneak attack, and then engage in a space jump gang battle to take down the cruiser.

At the same time, due to the transformation of the firepower supremacy of the Fight, the Fight does not have the square parking bay in front of every battle mothership, but has a giant Adamantite shield and ramming horns like ordinary Imperial warships.

Therefore, the leader of the Treacherous Thaumaturgists did not immediately recognize this as a battle mothership of the Star Warband.

Now on the Chaos giant ship, there are about a hundred Chaos Space Marines it transports, and it is a small war gang that believes in terror, and the paint between them, except for the red color, the logo on the shoulder armor is not uniform, obviously this war gang is a temporary terrorist and sadistic war gang.

However, although their numbers are small, their members are basically renegades who have betrayed the past from various interstellar warbands in the empire, and their combat effectiveness is not bad compared to those Chaos inferior goods, and their leader is a Chaos Champion with a chainsaw axe and a violent temper.

In addition, on the giant transport ship, those Chaos heretics, who numbered more than 30,000 people, were not ordinary heretics, but the famous Bloody Pact of Fear and Sadism.

The Blood Pact is a cult of highly organized Chaos warriors with a belief in sadism, and unlike other Chaos cultist warbands, the Pact fights as a disciplined army, which makes them much more effective than other unorganized Chaos cultists. Composed of highly trained and murderous soldiers and alien mercenaries, the soldiers of the Blood Pact are fearless and unhesitating. They have invaded the entire world, bringing untold pain and sorrow to the people of the Empire.

Blood Pact warriors usually look like they come from ragged or brutal Imperial Guard legions. They wore homemade combat uniforms taken from the corpses of the guards, or some of them apparently modeled after basic imperial style. Outside, he carried a torn backpack, side belts, and a variety of infantry equipment, including a steel bowl helmet. Because their equipment, equipment, and combat uniforms are a mix of trophies and home-made, no two Blood Pact Soldiers have the same outfit. Their appearance was rough and unkempt: their clothes were torn, patched, and dirty, while their helmets were torn and dented.

Members of the Blood Pact are usually recognizable by his ritualized iron cap, worn by all human members. These visors usually depict an eerie or vicious face, and there is also a hooked nose or jaw that is too distinctive. These masks are usually black, although some high-ranking officers also wear gold or silver.

And the reason why the Chaos Lord Tracy was able to hire blood pact troops to fight for himself as the Tzeentch Chaos Lord, was just to sell the Criddic world to the two forces of the blood pact force and the Chaos War Gang on the giant ship, as for the Chaos Space Marines who are being bombed on the Clidick world now, they are just some unlucky people who have decided to be sold a long time ago, and now if they are not bombed by the bombing fleet, they will be beaten by their own people sooner or later.

And just as the red mist was close to the alert area of the reconnaissance radar of the Battle, inside the bridge of the giant ship, the captain of the merchant ship who had fallen turned his head and looked at the leader of the thaumaturgists, and reported.

"My lord, now that we have reached this distance, if the ship continues to get closer, I am afraid that the reconnaissance radar on the Puppet Emperor cruiser will find us."

"Praise the Lord of Wisdom, now stop the ship for me, and tell the sadistic madmen to get ready to land! In addition, order the light spear turret side, ready for launch, and in any case, must hit the enemy ship's energy reactor with one shot.

Now at such a long distance, they are all face-to-face, and the enemy ships have not opened the Void Shield, if the gunners still don't hit the target, then I will personally cramp and pull out their bones, and then torture their souls, so that they will never be able to turn over! ”

The vicious declaration of the leader of the treacherous thaumaturgists made the infidels inside the bridge tremble on the spot. (To be continued.) )
