Chapter 263: Dangerous Moves
The ships of the Heavenly Punishment Gang, which were double-flanked, were quickly routed and turned into a pile of burning space junk.
Without them in the middle, the Imperial Navy and the defenses of the Sun Star immediately exchanged fire.
Loyal lasers and torpedoes unleash the wrath of the human lord on the traitors, and the minions of the dark gods retaliate with the power of destruction.
According to the beacon guidance left on the way here, more and more Imperial fleets descended on the battlefield in the future, and the battle on the Sun Star became more and more intense.
The Blackstone Fortress is at the forefront of the battle line, its sheer size and the giant Void shield it carries frantically absorb massive amounts of damage from the enemy, and its carefully calculated firepower configuration allows it to take a corvette directly with a single round of concentrated fire.
With the Blackstone Fortress as the spearhead, the Imperial warships formed a tight line and launched a systematic strangulation against the traitor's space forces.
The Chaos Warships are all hoping to get around this terrifying enemy.
Although there were quite a few of them, most of them had only come to Sun Star to trade, not under Kirk's command, and they didn't expect to run into such a thing.
If there are benefits to be made, these "retail investors" don't mind helping the Sun Gang, and by the way, they will crack down on a wave of puppet emperor lackeys.
It's just that the current situation is obviously not in their favor, and the consequences of forcibly coming out are tantamount to self-defeat, so looking for an opportunity to escape is the best strategy in front of them.
The hearts of the people are not aligned, the team can't be led at all, and the puppet emperor lackeys on the opposite side are menacing - Kirk doesn't think that his strength is stronger than that of the Red Pirates, and it is difficult for Sun Star to win this war alone.
Therefore, in order to gain the support of these "retail investors" to strengthen their chances of victory, the Chaos Lord had no choice but to choose to bleed once.
"Heroes, heroes, and the lackeys of the puppet emperor have already come to the door so arrogantly, how can I and the servants of the dark gods stand idly by? They're not kicking my Kirk's ass, they're slapping all the Chaos Warriors in the face! The Lord of the Sun Star shouted loudly into the communication channel, "If you can help me defeat this group of retired puppet emperor lackeys and get out of the current crisis, I am willing to sacrifice all the two thousand genetic seeds stored in the inventory, which are absolutely pure and stable goods." In addition, you can also gain the friendship of our Sun Star, and you will enjoy high discounts on all transactions here in the future! ”
According to the original plan, the genetic seeds of the Sun Star were supposed to be used to supply the Great Marauders, maintain the Sun Gang for their own use, and exchange some forbidden technology with the War Gang in need, but now in order to protect himself, Kirk had to spend all of them in the form of a bounty.
When the news spread through the Chaos Channel, it immediately attracted the attention of all "retail investors".
Regardless of the so-called friendship and high discounts, genetic seeds are the core material for the creation of space marines, and they will always be in a state of scarcity in short supply, which can be called the first hard currency in the galaxy.
Especially for the major Chaos War Gangs, the demand for genetic seeds is extremely scarce.
Due to their defection to Chaos, their own genetic seeds are so mutated that they cannot use them at all - they can accept the blessings of Chaos and become deformed and twisted to gain power, but genetic seeds are used for genetically encoded things, and if their stability is disrupted, the effect will be completely uncontrollable.
In other words, even the traitor Space Marines who have thrown themselves into Chaos are in pursuit of pure genetic seeds.
Except for a very small number of Chaos forces that have special reinforcement methods, the rest of the warbands obtain genetic seeds mainly by snatching them from the loyalists.
If anyone can get their hands on these genetic seeds in Kirk's mouth, it is inevitable that the future development will soar.
There must be brave men under the so-called heavy reward, and such a generous price can indeed make some of them excited.
Coupled with the popularity that Kirk had accumulated over the years of running the Sun Star, many Chaos ships suddenly became heroic and began to frantically pour fire on the Imperial side.
"It's just a dying struggle."
Since it was not an encrypted message, Wei Mu also learned of Kirk's bounty.
Two thousand genetic seeds were indeed very tempting, but he didn't know whether this news was true or not, and he couldn't guarantee whether the other party would use it to set a trap, so he didn't plan to take relevant actions, and uprooting the large chaos stronghold of Sun Star was their first priority.
Both Fogen and Morlock have already led the way, they are powerful heroes who are far more powerful than ordinary space marines, and if the other side does not have a legendary character to fight against them, the outcome of the war will be in doubt.
Wei Mu never had to worry about the arrangement of troops, so he turned to the director of the administration department on the side and asked, "How is the little ones in the academy?" ”
"As planned, they have all been assigned to various logistical positions to [participate] in this war." Ju Yi replied.
"It's a rare opportunity, just let them feel the atmosphere a little, but be sure to pay attention to safety, especially those who usually like to cause trouble." Wei Mu admonished.
"Of course, my lord, everything is under control." Ju Yi nodded.
On the other hand, the high reward of the Burning Sun War Gang naturally reached the ears of the three Heavenly Punishment brothers.
Originally, they belonged to the high-ranking guests on this planet, but now they could only feel deep malice from all directions.
Local cultists flocked to them, and the steel city was filled with the sound of guns and fighting.
Kirk apparently regarded them as mortal enemies, and had no intention of leaving them alive.
In the process of forcibly landing on the Burning Sun Star, due to various reasons, the Heavenly Punishment Gang lost two hundred combat brothers, and the remaining more than a thousand people are gathering towards the location of the Chaos Lord, and after regrouping, it will still be a powerful fighting force.
They're not out yet, there's still room for everything.
"Damn Kirk, since you are unkind, then don't blame us for being unjust!" After repeatedly communicating with the other party to no avail, Ankarak seemed to have made up some kind of determination, and scolded loudly.
"What are we going to do, big brother!" Yoris asked.
"The second brother and I led seven hundred brothers to find a way to grab the genetic seeds, and at the same time, the third brother, you take the remaining brothers to the port to get a few warships to meet us." Ankarak's eyes were sharp, and he showed the momentum of a broken boat.
"But big brother, what if the others learn about this and continue to besiege us?" Yoris worried.
"They won't." Ankarak shook his head and replied, "We snatched the genetic seed in order to throw it as bait to attract the attention of various forces, and if it didn't work, we could destroy it directly." In short, after losing the bargaining chips for the release of the bounty, the other warbands will naturally not continue to work for Kirk, and the situation will become even more chaotic, and then we will take advantage of the chaos to escape on the looted warship - as long as we can escape, we are not afraid that there will be no chance to make a comeback. ”
The general location of the gene seed bank is known to the three brothers.
If they want to survive the siege on both sides, they will have to take risks.
