There's no time to argue with her. When it became quiet outside, I began to take a closer look outside.

The silence seemed eerie, the whole chamber had completely lost its original appearance, not an inch of deck or wall was still intact, not an inch of it was clean enough to show its true color, and everywhere was stained with fine pieces of flesh or inlaid with shards of steel, or both. Even the crew, who were attacking from outside the cabin, was eerily quiet at the moment, with only a few painful snorts occasionally - apparently, a large explosion leaked out of the hatch, and the shock wave injured many people.

This is not normal. It's enough to have the heretics all crushed to pieces, but the Chaos Space Marines will never be able to kill them so easily. As far as I know, the Chaos Lords, Chaos Wizards, and the Lord's Guardsmen should be strong enough to withstand the close explosion of a cannonball.

I withdrew from the firmament of power, holding my laser pistol and power sword on guard, lest an iron giant leap out of the pile of corpses and lunge at me. But then I realized that my worries were unfounded, and I couldn't find anything bigger than my head when I looked around the cabin.

"Don't look for it, they're already gone." Ah Wei put her sword into the sheath and said indifferently.

I was taken aback, "Where?" ”

"I guess it's the cruiser called the Imperial Dawn. There's no way they're going to escape straight into subspace. ”

This is even stranger. Even if one of them was a powerful wizard who could cast a crowd teleportation spell in an instant before my cannonball exploded, what good would it be to escape back to that broken ship?

"But I've already destroyed that ship." I retorted.

"How do you prove that you wrecked that ship?" An unusually loud voice came from outside the hatch, "It's not a mistake for young people to have some ambitions, but they can't brag either. A capital ship is not the same as a group of Chaos Space Marines. ”

With this thick voice, a tall, stout man walked in from under the twisted hatch. He was more than 1.9 meters tall, wearing a captain's hat crookedly, and his tattered naval officer's uniform hung over his body like a shoulder, revealing his strong, hairy chest with his arms open. His arms are extremely thick, holding a power sword in the style of a short scimitar in one hand, and a real blaster with no cutting corners in the other - the emperor is on top, and the weapon with the same recoil and power is normally only used by space marines and battle nuns equipped with power armor, and the mortal soldiers who can use the blaster are definitely the fierce men among the macho men, and the man in front of him who can use the blaster gun with one hand can almost be out of the mortal level in terms of strength, Even among the Space Marines, there are very few who can skillfully operate the blaster with one hand. Don't look at the fact that I can lift a heavy explosive machine gun with one hand, if I don't use psionic energy to cheat, relying solely on the strength of my body, my wrist strength can't even withstand the continuous fire of the explosive arrow pistol. If it weren't for his real height, I would almost think he was a Space Marine.

And this person's age is a bit beyond my imagination. Judging by the wrinkles on his face and his short gray stubble, he must have been at least sixty years old. Although the empire is full of talents, and with the support of the scientific and technological strength of the Cult of the Mechanicus, there are many strong people who can still fight with chainsaw swords at the age of more than a hundred years, but this one in front of him does not look like he has been mechanically or biochemically modified......

Are the old men of the Navy all monsters? The old priest Eurix had almost scared me out with his physical body against the power armor and jetpack, but I didn't expect a more violent one to pop up here.

"The captain of our heretical redemption, Admiral Stiken Lem, you can call him Daddy Leme when you get acquainted with him." Ah Wei first introduced me to the visitor, and then introduced me, "As you mentioned, my friend with Add, Ilshan. ”…,

I was angry. What kind of introduction is this? You won't even report my rank?

However, in the aristocratic army, which is more classically divided into the navy, the official rank of lieutenant colonel and major does exist, while in our defense forces, the colonels are often only the rank of colonel, and the rank of lieutenant is often only the rank of captain. Because the largest establishment of the defense army is normally a regiment, the regiment commander and colonel are originally the same word, below the regiment is the company, the company commander and captain are also the same word, and the platoon commander below the company commander does not need officers such as second lieutenants and lieutenants, and directly let veterans such as non-commissioned officers serve as officers. That is to say, in the normal defense army, the regular ranks in a regiment are captain and colonel. But there are often not only soldiers in the army, but also many additional auxiliary personnel, such as imperial bishops, psionics, etc., and some armies are not directly company commanders below the regiment commander, and there are also formations such as the general staff. In order to give us supernumeraries a sense of belonging and honour as soldiers, the Imperial Defence added the titles of Major and Lieutenant Colonel to those who worked in the General Staff above the company commander and below the regimental commander. I, a lieutenant colonel, am actually just a fictitious title and have no real power. With my level, it's okay to put on a score in front of a lower officer like Sylvia, and when I meet my superiors, don't say anything disrespectful, even if someone slaps me over, I have to stand upright and bear it obediently, and I have no qualifications to turn my face.

Who called this the army and who called me a soldier?

Fortunately, although Daddy Lem looks a little vicious and his words are not very good, he can finally be judged from the names of others to him that he is actually a very easy-going person. And his words are really just educational, and they don't mean to embarrass me at all.

In order to curry favor and keep Sylvia, Eddie actually told a big lie. Where does this dad in front of him look like a little mixed seniority? Look at his murderous aura that lingers like an entity, he is purely a fierce general who has been killed from the sea of corpses and blood. At least if it's fair to the sword, I'm not sure I'll beat him at all, and probably not Eddie.

Hearing Awei's introduction, Captain Leme put the scimitar back into its sheath, waved his hand and said, "Don't mention it, thanks to your court, I retired from the navy early, so don't talk about the colonel or anything." Then he turned to me and said, "I've heard a long time ago that you and a navy girl destroyed the Chaos warship with a thunderbolt. A bad old man like me is not worth being deceived, but I don't think any normal person would have the guts to deceive an inquisitor. So, sue me, how did you do that? ”

That's a long story, and with my eloquence and style, it takes me about half an hour to finish it briefly. But Daddy apparently wouldn't be so patient, so I came up with a shorter answer, "With a torpedo." ”

"What model?"

"Uh......" I quickly flipped through the fragments of my memories before and finally found the complete correct answer, "Doomsday plasma torpedo." ”

He asked more quickly: "Let's not talk about how you got such a big guy, and don't say how you hung a 23.7-ton torpedo on a Thunderbolt fighter that weighs only 9.3 tons, I just want to know, did you hit it directly?" ”

"Yes...... Near-missed. "It's too embarrassing to say that I missed something, but thanks to my erudition and strong memory, I actually thought of this huge professional naval vocabulary in a flash, or High Gothic.

"Holy!" He cursed clearly, "Where did you learn the words of this earth age?" It's also close to missing bullets...... Where did the near loss come from in space? If you fly, you can fly, it's weird to be able to hit. Well, how far away is your near miss from the enemy ship to explode? ”

"About ten kilometers, I'm too far away to judge." The more I talked, the more uncertain I became, so I lifted Sylvia out of the tank," said Major Grimen, and if not completely, it would be a heavy blow, if not a complete destruction. ”…,

"Hmph, a little girl who has never used a large torpedo or seen a real capital ship will only believe what she says, even a layman like you will believe it." He scoffed, "I can tell you, don't say it's a gadget like Doomsday, even a larger Damnation Proton torpedo would need three or five direct hits to be sure to completely destroy an Avenger-class large cruiser." Hmph, is the technology of the Golden Age, the creation of the Imperial Age, the same grade as the technological defects and cutting corners of the goods we are making now? The armor of the Imperial Dawn is all real pure gold, fifty to one hundred meters thick, and our ship, can use a little bit of pure gold in the bow armor to be considered the emperor's blessing. ”

"Yes...... But it looks ......"

"It's all melted, and it looks miserable, right?" Captain Lem spat out, "It only hurt the shell, it didn't do much damage to the inside." It's like a person with severe burns. ”

Severe burns are fatal! Even if the medical nuns go directly to the front line to help them with all their might, few of them can make it to the operating table.

But that's just for ordinary people, if it's a warrior who is strong enough, even if he's severely burned, he can still stand firm and fight until the last moment, as for the biochemically modified superman of the Star Marine, it's even more different, their power armor has a circulatory system, even if it's burned, it doesn't affect the combat effectiveness at all, and some people with excellent physique can even heal on their own. As for whether the battleship is more like an ordinary person or a space marine, I think that the battleships that have been produced recently to cut corners should be more like ordinary people, as for those old boutiques......

Seeing my increasingly gloomy expression, Daddy Lime seemed to regret saying so much, so he comforted me and said, "Don't think so much, it's not time to hold you accountable." If you can hit it once, can't you do it a second or third time? ”

Yes, a spear can't kill a mammoth, but a hunting party can carry a hundred spears, and even if none of them can penetrate its heart, bleeding alone is deadly. I gritted my teeth and stomped my foot, "No problem! ”

Then I asked: "Is there a large torpedo on this battleship?" The close defense guns on the enemy ship must have been destroyed along with the armor, and the next attack will be easy. ”

This time it was Daddy Lem's turn to be depressed, "If I had that good thing, I would have been able to kill it a long time ago, where would it be your turn to take the credit?" Not only did we not have torpedoes, we couldn't even put together a full-fledged attack plane or bomber. ”

"What then?" Awei's cold expression was also a little untenable.

Daddy Lem shook his head, "It's not very easy to do, and the few light spears we have left are not powerful enough, so I want to start a few backup generators and see if I can get those old and dilapidated cannons in order." ”

A term I don't understand, but it's obviously not the time to satisfy curiosity right now, and judging by the way Awei looks, she doesn't necessarily understand.

Daddy Lem's gaze left us, and he looked around at the devastated chamber, his face contorted slightly, "If I don't get lost, there should be two backup plasma generators in this chamber." Now, I wonder, which bastard made this virtuous here? ”

Ah Wei and I looked at each other for a few seconds, but Ah Wei reacted quickly, "The main force of the Emperor's Son who boarded the ship has been completely defeated and expelled by us, and now there should be a team of World Eaters on the ship, I will go find them out and kill them immediately!" ”

Then he took my hand and smashed through the scarred crew and mechanical priests blocking the hatch, and ran without looking back.
