In the absence of heavy firepower and air supremacy, the Tadarin on the hill was almost at the mercy of the expeditionary force, the Tadarin fighters who were divided and surrounded were finished, and the tracks of the super-heavy tanks completely crushed their hopes.

A total of eleven weapons mounted on the Emperor's Poison Blade continued to fire at the Archon in front of him, and after seeing that the defeat was irretrievable, the two high-ranking Templars who had almost used light psionic energy directly sacrificed themselves and fused into the Archons.

In the roar of rage, the psionic blast directly hit the main armor of the poison blade, and the members of the super heavy tank felt a violent tremor, and the driver at the front of the tank could almost feel the heat caused by the armor being scorched, but fortunately this blow still failed to penetrate the thick terracotta steel armor.

Poisonblade's heavy cannon finally deflected at the massive white ball, and in the deafening sound of cannon fire, the rocket-boosted vector cannonball hit the Archon directly but was blocked by its tough shield.

"Reload," the commander calmly ordered, "he couldn't carry it a few times." ”

As the most visible enemy unit on the battlefield, the Archon naturally attracted the heaviest artillery fire, and under the cover of the main battle tank of Riemanrus, the Rymanrus Executioner constantly projected ion clusters at the Archon, and the red-hot plasma constantly weakened the shield of the White Ball and eventually overloaded it.

The final execution of the Archon was a massive combat cannon shot with a poison blade, and the vector cannonball hit the Archon in the chest, killing him completely.

As the battle of the armored forces came to an end, another Tadarin base almost fell, and most of the base's defenses were directly destroyed by the devastating shelling of the artillery group composed of the expeditionary force and the rangers.

Immediately afterward, an entire group of cathars marched towards the base in groups, with the Rangers at the front, the red-robed infantrymen with mostly modified bodies swooping down on the Tadarin base with their rifles.

The remnants of the resistance fearlessly charged at the Rangers, but they were invisible to the Cathar's modified mechanical eyes, the electric rifles were already aimed at them, and in a volley, the zealots who tried to rush towards them were killed by an electromagnetic explosion caused by their own intermolecular electromagnetic forces.

"Cathars, go ahead and take the technology in this base in the name of the Om Messiah." The Lord of the Cathars chanted a prayer and directed the Order's guards forward.

The last remaining Immortal continued to attack the attacking Rangers with its twin phase fragmentation cannon, and after a dozen arc gun shots overloaded its resolute shield, a precise transuranic sniper shot completely disabled it.

After the Immortals were paralyzed, the Tadarin base also completely lost the ability to resist, and called the commander to drive in and occupy it completely.

And where the laser rig was set up in Morbius, 174 billion watts of laser beams had penetrated the temple gates, and the fragments of the Sarnagar artifact inside had become the possession of the expeditionary force.

The Mechists excitedly recovered everything of value here, and the paralyzed immortals, the remains of the Stalkers, and even the shell of Tadarin's building was taken away by the Mechists.

In short, it is a bumper harvest of mechanical teaching, with these things, the scientific and technological level of the expeditionary force can be upgraded to a higher level, especially in terms of shields, the Zealot's single-soldier ion shield is very valuable for reference, and maybe the power armor of the space marines can be equipped with a human version of the ion shield.

Of course, the most important artifact fragments of Sarnagar have been loaded onto the transport plane and sent to the Hyperion, and so far, three artifact fragments have fallen into the hands of the expeditionary force, and the artifact's strange abilities are gradually being revealed.

Although there are only three fragments, there are already unknown energy fluctuations that have begun to affect the Hyperion centered on the artifact, and this effect has attracted the attention of the mechanical priests, and a new round of research projects has been launched on Renault's battleship.

As the recovery work progressed, the Draken laser rig, which originally belonged to the Morbius Foundation, was also recycled to the battleship, and the technical level of this rig is not high, but it can still be used as a reference.

Now all the technicians of the Mechanical Order are in a happy busy, and a large number of scientific research projects are being put on a daily basis, so that the Order's manpower is somewhat insufficient, and even the daily traditions of infighting have been thrown aside.

But Horus didn't give much time to the Mechists, and soon, he would leave the system with Renault to meet the boss behind the Morbius Foundation, Prince Valerian, the heir to the Tyranid Empire.

Horus would prefer Valerian to rule the Tyranid Empire over a treacherous dictator like Arcturs Monsk, who is a qualified ruler in terms of diplomacy, internal affairs, and resourcefulness, and a Tyranid Empire that favors the people's livelihood is more suitable to be an ally of the Ashes Expeditionary Force.

Originally, Valerian did not want to meet Renault and his rangers so early, but the appearance of an unknown force and the alliance with Renault was really unexpected, in order to find out Horus's purpose, Valerian chose to take a risk or get some information from Renault.

Of course, Renault didn't know that it was Valenian who he was looking for, he only knew that the owner of the Morbius Foundation was looking for him

"We're almost at the agreed meeting place, are you sure you want to meet the boss behind this foundation?" Renault was a little confused, because there was no need for Horus to have this meeting.

"Of course, having an in-depth conversation with the boss of the Morbius Foundation would be very beneficial to my actions."

"But why should we be deliberately late?"

"Of course, it's to give him a little bit of power, this boss of ours can't guess the strength of the expeditionary force."

In the area where the meeting was booked, Monsk's flagship Busephilos and two accompanying Gorgong-class battlecruisers jumped into the area first, and Prince Valerian also intended to give Renault a little disadvantage, but surprisingly, the rangers did not appear on time.

"It's strange that James Reynaud is supposed to be a punctual person." Just when Valerian was a little confused, the Hyperion also jumped into the galaxy.

"The Hyperion has arrived, and orders the fleet not to activate the shields, but to lean in and fight them in a jumping gang fight." The prince ordered to.

But before the Busefalos could get closer, a huge battleship eight thousand meters long suddenly appeared in the starry sky.

Compared to the Angel's Tears, the Busephalos, which is only a thousand meters long, is like a small loli, and it is not even as good as a sword-class frigate.
