Chapter 710: The road is narrow

[Timing: -53.54.23]

Standing on the bridge, Erebus looked at the world in front of him, a grim smile on his face.

It was a typical Astarte, his bald head engraved with verses from the Sacred Word written by Loga, the genetic protogenone of the Seventeenth Legion, and wearing crimson armor that seemed to have been washed by blood. A pair of narrow eyes were cold and full of vicious brilliance.

He could see the prosperity and prosperity of the planet, and he was enchanted by the breath of the mortal souls here, and it was for this reason that they had come here to perform an unprecedented sacrifice to the supreme god they believed in. And Koth is the starting point of this sacrifice, Ushkusu, and they will become sacrifices, lighting up the planet and the entire five hundred worlds of Otmara, destroying them completely.

When those desperate, anguished souls are consecrated, a new prologue of the universe will be opened, and it's funny that these stupid little blue toy soldiers don't know what they're about to face.

Thinking of this, Erebus twitched his lips and chuckled. He hadn't been able to meet Killiman in the first place, but it was a good thing, in fact Erebus welcomed the unfolding, and he was really afraid that he would laugh out loud when he saw Killiman's stupid and ignorant face, unaware of what was about to happen.

"Your Excellency."

However, just then, Erebus receives an unexpected message.

"The Ultramarines have just contacted us and expressed the hope that we will be able to move our position for the time being."

"Move location?"

Hearing this, Erebus frowned, his fleet had already entered the berth, and logically speaking, there should not be a similar request at this time.

"Why?"

"It's said that another fleet has suddenly appeared, and it needs urgent replenishment and repairs."

“………………………”

Erebus's expression was a little gloomy, he didn't like the sudden unexpected changes in the plan, I have to say, this request was indeed unexpected by Erebus, generally speaking, those rigid blue toy soldiers who only know how to do things according to the rules would not make such a move at all. However, from a military point of view, if the fleet is attacked or damaged, it is indeed necessary to return to the berth for maintenance and repair as soon as possible.

So the requirements of the Ultramarines are not unreasonable.

"I see."

Erebus thought about it for a while, and decided not to tear his face with the Ultramarines at this time, the infiltration of Coos's planetary protection system has not yet been successful, and a rash attack at this time will only startle the snake, and the rest is still left to his own original body to complete.

"We'll follow their instructions and send out the coordinates."

"Yes."

Soon, a new berth coordinate point was pointed out, and the sight of this coordinate point made Erebus's expression more and more ugly. Because the berth given by the other party is at the space orbital station of Coos Far Earth, although it is not impossible to moor the warship here, but from the perspective of etiquette, it obviously does not meet the norms.

After all, they were ostensibly representatives of the Seventeenth Legion, and this was tantamount to having the diplomatic envoy and his party drive them out of the luxury hotel and send them to the B&B next door.........

The Ultramarines don't make that mistake.

Erebus was a little puzzled by this, but at this moment, the Ultramarines sent a message to their brother Sayer, apologizing to Erebus for their negligent actions. And made a promise that the Far Earth Orbit space station was only temporarily docked, and they would soon activate the Ultramarines Legion's warships and let them leave the berth to make way for Erebus.

It's just that it takes at least an hour to fully activate a battleship.........

"I see."

Hearing the sincerity and uneasiness in the Ultramarine's tone, the corners of Erebus's mouth curled slightly, and the suspicion just now also vanished. Obviously, these blue toy soldiers are still the same, and they value fame more than anything else. Honor, dignity, but soon, maybe that's all they have left.

But before that, there is one more thing to ask Erebus.

"I just contacted my subordinate and he told me that there was a problem with the combat network connection to Couss? What's going on? ”

"Ah, I'm sorry, Company Commander Erebus."

The answer on the other side was still so nervous.

"You also know, not long ago, the Cult of the Mechanics just upgraded our orbital defense system, this large-scale military exercise transfer is the first time for the new system, the temporary line is somewhat disturbed due to data redundancy problems, the commander has asked us to fix the error as soon as possible, but it will take some time, I assure you, this exercise will definitely not be delayed, this is just a temporary technical adjustment."

"I hope so, I really didn't expect the Ultramarines to make such a mistake, it seems that my stereotype of you is about to change."

Erebus gave a small sarcastic remark, then cut off the communication.

It's just a temporary technical adjustment.

Retracting his thoughts, Erebus looked to the other side of the berth, where he saw a group of Navy soldiers quickly gathering and running towards the Ultramarine's battleship. It is clear that they are going to begin preparations to restart the battleship and make way for their good brothers.

Seeing this, Erebus didn't think much about it anymore and gave the order.

"Prepare to leave the berth."

It didn't take long for Erebus to realize that he had made a stupid decision.

[Timing: -52.32.16]

"The Whisperer fleet has left the Cowes orbital space station and is heading for the far-berth."

Lumiel retracted her gaze and looked at Duanmu Huai to report.

"Hehe, bunch of idiots."

Hearing Lumier's report, Duanmu Huai also appeared with a hideous, cold smile——— just like the replica of Erebus just now.

"They certainly don't know what awaits them there, but I think they will soon know."

"Honestly, Mr. Knight, I think you seem to be nice to these people?"

An looked at Duanmu Huai curiously, and asked, she has been following Duanmu Huai for a long time, and it is the first time she has seen Duanmu Huai so interested in a force. Even on the side of the Star Alliance, Duanmu Huai maintains an immediate-like relationship with them, but for this extreme warrior, he seems to be very concerned.

"Of course, Ann, you don't know yet, this world is the only fruit left."

Duanmu Huai put his hands behind his back, stared at the star map in front of him, and said lightly.

"It is the place most likely to revisit and re-manifest the Golden Age of humanity, where destruction cannot be tolerated and accepted."

As Duanmu Huai said, the five hundred worlds of Ultramara, ——— four star fields, with a total of five hundred habitable planets, is the most likely place in the player's empire to recreate the golden age of humanity. The rest of the world is a piece of in the eyes of the player, even Terra——— because of a lot of artificial modifications, the former cradle of humanity has completely turned into a ghost place where even drinking water must be transported outside, and the entire land cannot find even the slightest water source.

In contrast, Otmara is beautiful, follows the path of sustainable development, and the people are excellent, and mortals and Astarte get along well, and there is no other place where Astarte thinks that mortals are parasites lying on the empire and the emperor, or mortals feel that Astarte is a group of biochemically modified horror demons.

And in fact, even after the Horus Rebellion, the Five Hundred Worlds were the most developed and prosperous galaxy that survived. It is conceivable that if the Bearer had not caused harm to the world, then it would have been able to reach a certain height.

Of course, there is also a little story about the representatives of civilization. Many players believe that White Scar is a representative of their civilization, citing the fact that White Scar admires and loves poetry, is an erudite warrior, and is proficient in craft, art, and philosophy.

But Duanmu Huai and other other players completely disagree with this opinion, they think that the white scar has nothing to do with their civilization at all, the white scar is a nomadic tribal culture, and they have a dime to do with their farming civilization? Besides, the genetic prototype of the white scar also calls himself Khan——— which is strange if Da Ming doesn't kill him, to let the white scar represent his own civilization, Duanmu Huai is the first hundred unwilling to accept it, he will not accept that there is a leader named Khan in his own civilization, what kind of mess is this?

Even if you can drag two sentences, it can't change the essence of your nomadic tribal culture, right?

In Duanmuhuai's view, the Ultramarines and the Ultramara Five Hundred Worlds are closer to their civilization composition, and there are foreign players who say that the Ultramarines are ancient Roman culture——— in Duanmuhuai's opinion, it is purely to put gold on their faces, who doesn't know what Rome looks like, you are embarrassed to say that Ultramara is Roman culture, and it is obvious that it should be more in line with us in terms of the family-loving tradition of Ultramarines.

If you have to say, you foreigners are more like space wolves, and you are right to be the ones who talk about the world.

Barbarism, vulgarity, fanatical superstition, genocide, and bathing are not the consistent traditions of your Western civilization. As far as your virtue is concerned, you are embarrassed to say that you are the civilized representative of the Thirteenth Legion? Thick-skinned, I guess it's a little thicker.

"Alright, it's time for us to act, let's go."

Duanmu Huai also retracted his thoughts at this time and gave an order.

With Duanmu Huai's order, the fleet quickly started and moved in the direction of the Kauss space orbit.

When the Inquisition fleet entered orbit at the Cowes space station, the Whisperer fleet under the command of Erebus had just arrived at the Far Earth anchorage, and at the same time, Erebus received a signal from the Inquisition fleet.

"That's the new fleet? Wait, that's not ........."

At first, Erebus didn't particularly care, thinking it was an Ultramarines fleet, but when he saw the dazzling golden chapel on those battleships, Erebus suddenly shuddered!

He hadn't forgotten how much trouble this mysterious fleet had caused to the 62nd Expeditionary Fleet in Eastfan, knowing that Erebus was by Horus's side at the time, and if it weren't for the protection of the gods, I'm afraid the entire 62nd Fleet would have been finished. Afterwards, Horus went mad with rage and vowed to annihilate the fleet completely.

However, they actually appeared in Couss?

Is this a coincidence? Or is there a plan?

At this moment, Erebus's face sank directly.

He began to wonder if he had made a stupid decision.
