Chapter 57: Wrapping Up and Escalating
After the Angel's Tears approached the abandoned ship in Sarnagar, all the oil guys on it rushed onto the ship, which had been abandoned for an unknown amount of time.
The captured Void Glow was also placed aboard the Sarnagar, and Captain Taylor's heroic gang jump dealt a fatal blow to the Tadarin, and the armed sailors outnumbered all the Tadarin with laser rifles.
This operation paralyzed the Glow command system, allowing the expeditionary force to successfully capture the rammed Tadarin.
Throughout the battle in the Sigma sector, the expeditionary force managed to destroy two Glow ships at the cost of silencing one frigate and lightly wounding one, capturing one, and completely annihilating Tadarin on the abandoned ship of Sarnagar.
After confirming that the abandoned ship of Sarnagar was completely under the control of the expeditionary force, the Goliath-class foundry ship loaded with the most advanced faster-than-light equipment of the Mechanic Order entered the Sigma sector, and the Mechanic Order wanted to move the ship to a safe place for research, after all, the Sigma sector was not completely controlled by humans and was at risk of being attacked by Tadarin at any time.
After the war, the sword-class frigate Yongyi had already been inspected by the Mechanical Repair Society and judged that the ship's keel had cracks, and the hull structure had been unstable and could not be repaired, which was also the first battleship lost by the Ash Expeditionary Force.
The Brave's captain, Colonel Taylor, was commended by the Expeditionary Fleet Command for his bravery in battle, and Horus personally met with all the surviving crew members of the Brave and honored them. Soon after, they will be joined by a new crew of dutiful light cruisers with a new crew, and the captain will still be Taylor.
From this batch of Tadarin, the Mecha Sect has also made new breakthroughs in the scientific and technological research of the Star Spirit, such as the Star Spirit's individual ion shield, the Star Spirit attaches great importance to the shield, and almost all Star Spirit units are using the ion shield.
After getting their hands on a large number of samples, the Mechists finally used the Astral Spirit's ion shield technology for the Expeditionary Force, and the first to use this technology was the Space Marine's Power Armor.
Space Marines themselves are equipped with a small number of deflector shields, which are only available to officers and elite fighters, but with the first Ionic shield-mounted power armor in use, even the most basic primordial arbiters are now shielded.
There is also the energy amplification stance on the Void Glow Ship, after researching and replicating the stance, the mechanics have applied the part of this technology that they can currently understand to the light spear, which is expected to increase the power of the light spear slightly, of course, it can only be equipped by future warships.
In addition to the unremitting efforts of the Mechanic Guild in research, this series of equipment upgrades and technological advances also includes Horus's interference in this matter, judging from the efficiency of the new equipment input of the Mechanic God Cult, it was originally necessary for at least 5 more years to approve these new technologies before they could be officially approved for production.
But after learning that there were these things, Horus waved his pen and directly agreed to put them all into production, which the Sage of Clecisis protested, but could not do anything about it.
This is also one of the problems of the Mechanical Order in the Expeditionary Force, although these red-robed people are much more efficient than their Martian counterparts in terms of new equipment, but they are still too slow for a world far away from subspace.
After leaving the dunghole of the subspace of the imperial world and establishing normal regimes in other worlds, Horus understands more and more why the emperor wants to build the net.
If the Emperor's network was successfully established, although it would not allow the Human Empire to completely get rid of the subspace, it would at least weaken its influence on humanity, and in that case, it would at least make the situation of the Human Empire more than ten times better than it is now, but it is a pity that Magnus's foolishness has made everything come to naught.
Pulling his thoughts back from the past to the present, Horus began to think about what to do next, and after leaving the Sigma sector, the expeditionary force once again joined the rangers, and now all the Selnagar artifact fragments had been collected.
The assembled artifact is ready for use, but Horus doesn't want to go to Char so early, and the most important step in transforming the Blade Empress Sarah Kerrigan back into a human is to use the Sarnagar artifact to release the Void energy in her body, and this massive energy will be used by Aemon's minion Narud to awaken his master.
Although Narud had expected the expeditionary force to affect his plans, he had to take this step, as it was the only way to awaken Emon at the moment, after all, creatures with psionic powers stronger than the Blade Empress were almost non-existent in the Koplu Sector.
And this kind of operation space, Horus can't say anything without using his hands and feet, although Horus also wants to use the Sarnaga artifact to turn the Blade Empress into a human, but he can mix something with the energy released.
For example, the energy of chaos, which comes from the evil gods of chaos, is also the power they use to corrupt Horus, and the power of the four gods is like maggots attached to the bones in Horus's soul.
But when Horus stole the pure power of the Void from Aemon and used it to cut his soul with the Chaos energy, he found a solution to the corrupting energy by giving it to Aemon.
"Thanks to Sarnagar, thankfully they are the beings who use energy transfer to pass on."
As an existence of the same level as the four evil gods of subspace, the dark god Emon will not be affected by the corruption of these energies, but he can disgust Emon, who wants to wake up.
There is another problem, that is, how to help Valerian ascend to the throne, Ruth does not intend to let Kerrigan go through the process of turning from a human to a worm again, and he intends to make Kerrigan go from a man to Sarnagar in one step.
Well, what to do with Akturs Monsk in the middle became a question, and Horus intended to solve it in the simplest and most traditional way, bitter fighting, that is, a coup d'état.
As long as Valerian survived the Battle of Char and had the merit of turning the Empress of Blades into a human, with half of the Tyranid Empire's fleet and the might of the Ash Expeditionary Force, it would be enough to stage a coup d'état like a storm and shatter the rule of Acturs.
Renault's rangers had also helped Prince Valenian in their search for the Sarnagar Shards, disrupting Arcturs' rule by releasing a large number of political prisoners in Renault in Novvarsson, and destroying the foundations of his reign by recording the Monsk Attracting Swarms to destroy Tanzanis.
As long as Valerian shouts after the battle of Tsar, the mighty rule of Akturs Munsk the Great will collapse.
