All the ships of the Chaos fleet in the system are evacuating, and the cruiser takes on the role of frigate, covering the battleship and sailing towards the rift while exchanging fire with the Tyrone fleet.

The Void shields of all ships were overloaded when they were attacked by the arc just now, and the side without the shield in a ship-versus-ship battle was doomed to be at a disadvantage.

To add insult to injury, except for the battleships, most of the cruisers' hulls were damaged to varying degrees, and some of the less fortunate cruisers had damaged thrusters, and after a period of slow sailing, the thrusters stopped working, and they could only stay in place in despair and be set on fire.

Some of the warships that did not want to die in humiliation in the process of evacuation chose to stop retreating, slowly turned their direction and launched a decisive charge towards the nearest Tyrone battleship, ignoring the attack on the hull and ramming it as fast as possible.

A ship that is fast enough can smash the energy shield of the Tyrone with a ramming angle, but only the shield can be broken, and after the impact is over, the ship's body will vibrate and deflect violently, and the crew of the battleship will be thrown out regardless of whether they are ready for the impact or not, and the flesh will be broken faster than the ship's hull.

Abaddon, who was on the bridge of the Vengeful Spirit, observed the overall situation of the fleet, and then speculated to Typhons, who was in contact with him, "At least forty cruisers will be destroyed during the evacuation." ”

Typhonse said something angrily, but it was muffled by the sound of an explosion that echoed through the bridge.

Far away on the bridge of the Terminus, Typhon saw the entire bridge of the Vengeful Spirit tremble violently, and Abaddon thrust his power claws into the throne to keep his balance.

Typhonse wanted to ask what was going on in the Vengeful Spirit, but before he could speak, he heard a louder explosion from the video.

Abaddon didn't have to send someone to investigate to know what was going on.

The port side of the Vengeful Spirit was hit before the decision was made to evacuate, and the attack caused a fire near the point of impact, possibly due to the crew's failure to contain the spread of the flames, which then detonated the ammunition depot.

This kind of collateral damage is very common in war, and it may be that nearly 10,000 crew members were blown away in the two explosions just now, but it doesn't matter, there are at least hundreds of thousands of crew members left on the battleship.

The slightest trouble on the Vengeful Spirit was enough to worry Abaddon for a moment, but he was more concerned about the situation at Blackstone Fortress, because whether the next war could be fought depended on whether Blackstone Fortress could be evacuated with the fleet.

Abaddon looked at the image on the bridge and saw that the two Blackstone Fortresses had just finished another round of bombardment, and they began to retreat as they gathered subspace energy, but they stopped and stopped.

The Blackstone Fortress was confronting the crew that controlled them, and apparently did not want to retreat.

"Did you notice those Blackstone Fortresses?" Abaddon asked Typhons, "I've never seen them like this...... So active...... Before, I didn't even know if they had any means of attack other than vortex cannons, but now they are so active in fighting for me. ”

"If you give me a Blackstone Fortress too, maybe I can study them and answer your questions." Typhonse said.

Abaddon didn't follow Typhons' words, he turned his head to look at the porthole, and saw that the vengeful spirit and the rift were close at hand.

"Leila." Abaddon looked at his strongest lieutenant, "Go aboard the Eternal Will and make sure it won't be destroyed by the Jumping Gang before it evacuates." ”

Layla immediately prepared to teleport.

……

The subspace teleportation technology is not very stable and easy to use, but due to the existence of subspace rifts in the galaxy, the teleportation distance and accuracy are far beyond the normal level, even if the thickness of the Blackstone Fortress is far more than five meters, Lyla still accurately enters the control room of the Eternal Will.

This is a 4,000-square-meter cubic space in the Blackstone Fortress, no one knows what its original purpose was, and now the purpose of this space is to be used as a control room.

When Leila appeared in the clearing in the control room, the Dark Mechanic priest tasked with providing technical support to the Eternal Will was giving orders to his subordinates to rush to various parts of the Blackstone Fortress to add propulsion.

"What's going on here?" Leila stepped forward and asked.

The priest glanced at Leila, and then gave a series of commands before answering him angrily, "I don't know. ”

The Dark Mechanics are members of the Mechanics who have betrayed the Empire, and they have a strong interest in all the technologies forbidden by the Empire, but the two are not very different in personality.

If it were someone else, Leila would immediately draw her knife and cut it into 666 pieces, but the priest in front of her was found by the war commander.

"Why does the propulsion unit always go out? The same goes for the new propulsion? ”

"Damn it, damn Blackstone Fortress, damn propulsion."

“……”

Lyra could get a glimpse of the current situation when she heard the priest's complaints, that is, the thrusters installed in the Blackstone Fortress always stalled for no apparent reason, even with the newly added propulsion units.

The Dark Mechanics were helpless in this situation, and Lyra couldn't intervene.

"I've got something I can do." The priest summoned a servo skull, then motioned for Lyra to look at the skull.

After Leila's eyes and the two glowing holes in his skull matched, an image appeared in his brain.

It was an image of a passage at the edge of the Blackstone Fortress, recorded by another servo skull.

The servo skull followed five thousand mortal minions and ten Chaos Space Marines from various warbands patrolling the passage, and as they traveled some distance, they suddenly saw hundreds of blue chasms appear directly in front of them, and in each rift came a space marine.

Finally, out of the rift came a man wearing a power armor that had never been seen before, and an alien holding a light-emitting device, which was constantly waving the device in its hand as soon as it appeared.

Those Space Marines are the Weepers.

Leila recognized the emblems on the Space Marine armor, and he had even fought against them.

However, the weepers were completely different from what they had ever been, all of them wearing Terminator Power Armor, firing at the patrol as they pushed forward.

The vast passages in the Blackstone Fortress are suitable for use as battlefields on a spatial level, but there is nothing in the passages that can be used as cover, hundreds of mortal minions are beaten to pieces every second, and those space marines don't last long.

"It's outrageous......" Layla was a little confused. The last time he saw so many Terminator Power Armor was during the Great Expedition 10,000 years ago.

Leila reports the situation to the commander again, and then asks for his support.

During the debriefing, Laya suddenly thought of a nemesis named Kajan, and it would be nice if it was Kajan who had to intercept the weepers.

It's a pity that Kayan is even more unlucky.
