Tykes didn't say anything more, he stood aside and waited for the conscription to end.

Dying in this hellish prison, or dying outside, was not a difficult choice, and everyone signed their names.

In fact, to some extent, the prisoners who were exiled here were already dead, and at most the execution process was a bit long.

The sentences of these prisoners are life and cannot be commuted.

With heavy work and harsh conditions, they often don't survive long here.

People like Tykes who have lived for more than three years are old people among the prison elders.

To stay here is to slowly accept death.

There were no old people or sick among the prisoners.

Because these two entered the Fers02 Planet Prison, they died in less than two days.

Only those who are physically strong will survive in this hell.

All of them can become soldiers and fight for the Emperor.

Once everyone had signed their names, the recruiter took the men to the prison's landing platform, where they called a transport boat to pick them up.

Tykes stood on an open platform, looking out at the lava-filled surface.

In the distance, hot red magma tumbled, releasing gases and heat that would cost humans their lives.

Aside from the prisons that these mining sites have turned in, FERS02 is simply unsurvivable on the surface.

If you want to escape from prison, the biggest problem is not to escape from prison, but how to escape to outer space.

This is also the reason why there are few prison guards in prisons, but there is a fleet in the sky.

All that had to be cut off from possible outside rescue would be left to the prisoners.

They have nowhere to run.

With a roar, Tykes withdrew his gaze and looked into the sky, the bottom of several massive transports emitting a faint blue light.

They slowly landed on the docking platform.

Each one is huge, about 100 to 200 meters long alone, like a steel beast, and its size alone can make many people fearful.

Large-caliber artillery and laser arrays were also installed on the sides of the transport boat.

They are not combat units, but they still have decent firepower.

Tykes stared at the flame emblem on the ship's hull.

There were all of them, and he had joined the army and wandered for so many years, and he had never seen any force use this insignia.

At first, he had some doubts about the recruiter's claim that they were from outside the Koplu Star Zone.

After all, the Eternal Night Storm lasted so long, and the humans in the Koplu Star Zone didn't want to explore other places, but in the end, there was no news.

Now, he's somewhat convinced

After the transport boat came to a stop, the hatch was opened amid the hissing of high-pressure gases.

The recruiter, armed with a megaphone, walked up to the hatch of a transport boat and shouted at the prisoners.

"Your only value is to fight for the Holy Emperor, and only by proving your loyalty to humanity can your sins be cleared. When you board the battleship, you must know that you have given your life to the great God Emperor, and that breaking this oath will face the most cruel end. And by keeping this vow, you can go to His Kingdom after death. ”

"They look like a bunch of fanatical religious people." Ichiro Higashihashi, who was standing next to Tykaes, whispered.

Instead of looking at him, Tykes let his eyes look forward to avoid attracting attention.

"If you don't want to be thrown back to that hellish place, you'd better keep silent."

This sentence made Ichiro Higashibashi stop talking.

"Board the ship." When the conscription officer had finished his words, he let them aboard.

Several soldiers wore full combat uniforms to maintain order among the prisoners.

Tykes lined up to board a roaring transport.

The floor trembled, and beneath it was hidden a powerful engine unit capable of propelling the behemoth.

When the cabin was full, the transport boat roared and took off, flying high into the air.

"Free." Through the observation window, Tykes saw the prison getting smaller and smaller, and said secretly in his heart, and a smile also appeared on his face full of meat, "Hot chicks, your Uncle Tykes is back." ”

The transports burst out of the atmosphere and flew towards the Moon of War, which was guarded by many warships.

Tykes and the others saw the empire's vast fleet group.

Truth be told, they were also scared.

As they approached the Imperial fleet, they saw the vast Moon of War, and their expressions were even more terrifying.

It's really huge, it's kind of unbelievably big.

Not like a ship, but a world.

It is said that the Tyranid Empire also has one such war object in its hands.

This is also the reason why this huge and distorted regime has been able to continue.

The most minor war objects can easily destroy a planet.

For the most part, behemoths of this level are deterrent and will not be dispatched unless necessary.

Now the Galactic Empire is using it as an expeditionary ship.

Tykes had heard a lot of stories about war objects, all of them from the time of the Human Alliance.

With the Celestial-class warships and Colossus-class warships, humanity swept through the starry skies, expelled countless alien races, forced them to leave the galaxy, and made the galaxy the backyard of humanity.

But he had never seen it, and the Tyranid Empire claimed to own a Celestial-class warship, but Tykis never saw it.

So this was the first time he had seen a big guy who claimed to be the pinnacle of human destruction art.

"I'm a good one!! What a big guy. ”

As the transports approached, the war object grew larger in Tykes's eyes, and his mouth grew larger with surprise.

"If only I had one." Tykes' eyes were full of light, who doesn't love such a big guy.

"Stop dreaming." The cellmate on the side said, "This thing has to be a strategic-level existence, and we are a group of prisoners who still want to get a strategic-class celestial warship, which can only be described as wishful thinking." ”

"Who's to say that!! I didn't think I'd get out of prison at the beginning, but now I'm still out. To be a man, you must have dreams, otherwise what is the difference between you and salted fish. "My dream used to be an endless amount of money, an endless amount of chicks, and an endless amount of cigars, but now my dream is to build a Celestial-class battleship." ”

"Your dreams are really not realistic." The man next to him said.

"It's called a dream if it can't be realized, and what can be achieved is called a goal."

While the prisoners were bragging, the transports slowly approached the surface of the War Moon and landed on a metal platform with an artificial atmosphere.

The mass of the War Moon is huge, it can generate gravity, and it has its own atmosphere.

However, due to the fact that it is always moving at high speed, the atmosphere on its surface is very thin, so it needs an artificial atmosphere to maintain some important places such as berths.

Tykes stepped out of the hatch and a chill hit him, making him shiver.

What catches the eye is a continuous stream of metal buildings, each one dotted with light, huge and magnificent, standing on the surface of the ship's hull.

A heavily armed officer with a group of soldiers stood at the far end of the platform to maintain order.

They weren't just one transport boat on the platform, seven or eight had been parked before they came.

The number of prisoners on Fers02 is not a small number.

Thousands of people were lining up to undress and clean up before getting new clothes and heading into the warm interior of the building.

Where the soldiers were maintaining order, there were also medical personnel in full protective suits who were examining the prisoners and assessing the treatment they should receive.

"Queue, queue." A uniformed, helmet-wearing judicial officer, wielding a crackling electric baton, makes the inmates who are looking around and messing around towards the queue.

Tykes looked around and spotted laser cannons mounted high above and armed drones suspended in the air.

Resistance is of no use and only brings death.

He and the others walked towards the queue, honestly accepting their fate.

After half an hour of queuing, Tykes was asked to take off his full body of clothing, have it thoroughly inspected and washed, and he did.

His frame was strong and powerful, and his clothes were covered in muscles and scars.

After serving the Tyranid Empire for so many years and doing so many things with Renault, he has long lost sight of a few good skins on his body.

"Standard laser penetrations, and burns, it looks like you were once a soldier." The medical personnel in charge of the examination pressed down on Tykes' muscles several times and used a machine to scan his body.

"Yes, but it's not a wonderful memory." Tykes raised an eyebrow, "To be honest, if it weren't for freedom, I wouldn't have chosen the army again." ”

"Yes, that's what many of you say." The medic retrieved the instrument and pointed to the entrance to the depths of the building, he glanced at the data board next to him and saw the name and information of Tykes, "Alright, Tykes, you're through." The Emperor of God is watching you, and you will be redeemed. ”

"I just want to get the money, chicks, cigars, and a big toy." Tykes said silently in his heart. 、

After completing all the procedures, Tykis stepped into the interior of the magnificent building.

He had expected to see the inside of a ship full of technology.

But when he walked in, he saw only a wide corridor.

The corridor is flanked by magnificent sculptures and a giant brazier at the foot of the sculptures.

Next to the brazier, there are entrances to each room.

Their dormitories are those rooms.

Truth be told, this is not like what a high-tech warship should have, but more like a religious sanctuary in some backward world.

Mechanical cherubs shaped like babies with wings behind their backs flew through the air, and the loudspeakers they carried rang out with the sound of frenzied sermons.

"They're really a bunch of religious fanatics!!" Tykes said to Ichiro Higashihashi, who came in after him, "I have a bad feeling that this freedom is not so easy to get. ”

"But we're all in, and we don't have a choice." Higashihashi Ichiro lowered his voice and said, "Let's go, so that they don't throw us back to that hellish place." ”

The speed of the Second Expeditionary Force, it only took half a day, and they took all the prisoners away.

They will be incorporated into the Koplu Corps for training,

Then you can fight for the God Emperor until you give your life.

When this was done, the Second Expeditionary Fleet set sail again.

Their goal was clear: the Port of Melborough.

After seizing it, they were given a foothold in the Koplu Star Zone.

can use that place as a foundation to conquer the entire Koplu Star Zone.

The Port of Melborough is just a name, but it's actually a galaxy, and it's only because of the huge space station and harbor that are built there that it gets its name.

Koploo is unaffected by the Eternal Night Storm, making it one of the few places to be safe.

The structure of space-time also maintains the integrity of the foundation.

As a result, it is possible to see the scene in the rest of the void.

When one stands in the Moore's harbor, one can see the breathtaking scenery.

The Fort Melbourne system, to which the Port of Melbourne belongs, is part of the Creekon Nebula.

Many nascent galaxies are close together at unimaginable distances.

They are all part of the Crecan Nebula

Nebulae are the seeds of stars.

At the edge of the nebula are some stars that emit light, and they are all newly born stars.

Dust and glowing gases stretch out from the Creekon Nebula in all directions, their tips ignited by stars.

Of course, the youth of the stars is relative to the universe.

To humans, they are still too old to be true.

Even the youngest stars are tens of millions of years old.

When the ancestors of mankind walked into the starry sky, they developed these planets and transformed them into suitable environments for human life.

After the alliance fell apart, the stars and their vassal planets became the sacrosanct property of the Tyranid Empire.

The location of the Port of Melborough is crucial, as it is the hub of the subspace shipping lane.

People would jump out here and look for a recognizable route to their destination.

When they find the exact course and re-enter the subspace, they will go exceptionally well.

If the port is lost, people will have to travel farther to settle down and correct the shipping lane, and they will have to take more risks, and the probability of getting lost will be greatly increased.

The young star in the port of Melborough is at the center of the galaxy, and it is blazing, then spilling light and heat on every planet.

For the star, this moment is no different from every moment that has ever been spent before.

It doesn't care about the cobweb-like structures that humans have built on the periphery of its territory.

Over time, it has seen countless civilizations do just that.

Today, those civilizations are gone.

More than one of these civilizations claimed to exist forever, but in the end they all disappeared, swallowed up by the river of time, never to be seen again.

But for the merchants of the Tyranid Empire, today is a little different.

With a keen intuition, they sensed a different oppressive aura in the port of Melburg.

"They're preparing for war."

Furmor, who was in the loading and unloading area directing the crew to load the newly purchased cargo into the cargo hold of the ship, saw that something was wrong.

The battleships that were supposed to be in the harbor and resting in the dock all sailed out.

They were organized into patrol fleets and roamed the void, as if they were wary of something.

"Could it be that the Kemorian Consortium is calling??" Another captain next to him whispered, "The world will not be peaceful again, and as soon as there is a war, we will be bad." ”

"Probably not, the second war just ended six years ago." Fermore shook his head, thinking that it should not be the Kemorian Consortium.

"The Kemorian Consortium are crazy guys for money and resources, they don't care about human life, as long as the profit is enough, they dare to shoot at the gods. Six years ago, the Tyranid Empire was the attacker, causing them so much damage, this time I am afraid that it will only take revenge. Someone next to him offered his opinion.

The Kemorian Commonwealth and the Tyranid Empire are very different forms of government.

It can't even be said to be a country, but a huge business, a business empire that is above all else.

Always go to great lengths to capture the planets that can be exploited and exploit them predatorily.

The Kemorian Commonwealth often uses wars to maintain the multiplication and transfer of capital, and is one of the most troublesome enemies of the Tyranid Empire.

"As soon as I look at you, I know that the news channel is not working." A pot-bellied man inserts himself into the conversation of several people.

This made Furmore and the others all look at him.

"Do you know what's going on?" Someone asked.

"The Folsom system has been taken by someone, and it is still an unknown force. The people in Fort Melbourne are asking for help from somewhere else!! This battle is estimated to be very large. The man lifted his big belly and told what he knew.

"Unknown forces? Are there any other unknown forces in the Koplu Star District? Someone laughed.

"I heard that it's not from the Koplu Star District, but from outside."

The man's words instantly intrigued everyone, and they gathered around to know more.

From outside??

Who doesn't know that the Koplu Star District is surrounded by the Eternal Night Storm, and those who dare to go out have not been able to come back in the end.

"It's not like you're misinformed, right?" Someone questioned the man's words.

The other party was immediately anxious.

"The channel news in my hand is absolutely true."

"Forget it, why do you care so much!" Vermore shook his head, "It's better to run away from the war." ”

"That's right, the Tyranid Empire belongs to the emperor, not ours, so there's no need to worry about it."

"Leave early after loading, this place is about to become a place of right and wrong."

"That's right."

The businessmen are talking and discussing.

Suddenly, a rapid alarm sounded, echoing through the vast harbor.

"What happened?" Vermor looked stunned.

"War is coming." One of the captains next to him said, "Hurry up, or you won't be able to leave later." ”

"Look over there." Someone in the crowd shouted.

Fermore subconsciously looked in the direction the other party was pointing.

The edge of the galaxy that stretched out into the dark void twisted and flickered, then tore open cracks.

Magnificent fleets leap out of subspace on an unimaginably large scale.

When they appeared in the real universe, they ignited the thrusters in their tails and headed for the port of Melburg.

Obviously, they are not ships of the Tyranid Empire.

The war is coming.

It came so suddenly that Fermore and the others were all stunned.

Even the shrill sirens didn't bring them back to their senses.

Until someone screamed out of the pressure.

These frightened people came to their senses.

People began to run in all directions.

Chaos began to grow.

Vermore also ran away, and he didn't want to be involved in the war.

He's just a small merchant, and both the Tyranid Empire and the new fleet can easily crush him.

He gave the order for the crew to board the ship, and then ran to the wheelhouse.

The ship's observation device also saw the ships and saw them more clearly than with the naked eye.

Each of them was equipped with huge cannons and churches, and any single cannon could break his small ship to pieces.

The hulls of the ships are all decorated with flame insignia.

Koploo did not use the power of this emblem.

Vermore thought of what the man had said.

Is it true that forces from outside the Koplu Star Zone?

But he didn't have time to think about whether the other party was from the Koplu Star District, he just wanted to run away.

Once the crew was on board, he started the engines, untethered and prepared to leave the port.

At this point, the cargo ship received a message.

[Warning, warning, Fort Melbourne Supreme Military Command issued a supreme mobilization order to avoid chaos. All ships are forbidden to leave the port, and again, all ships are prohibited from leaving the port. 】

Fermor's face turned pale in an instant, and he pondered whether to disobey that order and force his way out of the port.

There was a flash of light, and a cargo ship larger than him broke away from the harbor and started its engine to accelerate.

The ship flew straight out of the harbor.

In the next second, a beam of light swept by.

The ship exploded in the void, countless fragments of wreckage flying.

[Warning, all ships are prohibited from leaving the port.] Defensive artillery is authorized to destroy any ship that disobeys orders and leaves the harbor without permission. 】

Seeing the destruction of the cargo ship that wanted to escape, Fermor's face turned pale instantly.

Now he could only pray to the ancient gods to protect him, the unfortunate one.

On the other side is the Fort Melbourne Supreme Military Command.

Rapid sirens sounded everywhere.

Huge projections show the sheer scale of the invaders.

It is densely covered with red dots, and they cover the sky and the sun, and they are invincible.

As a marshal, Ganmorin's face became extremely ugly.

After receiving the warning message from the Folsom system, he realized the crisis and began an emergency dispatch.

But when the enemy really appeared, it still gave him a sense of powerlessness.

The enemy's fleet is too numerous.

"A message received, Marshal." Cammorin's aide-de-camp Heller shouted, "They are sending this message to all our ships." ”

"Take it in."

As he commanded, a projection interface flickered.

Thrawn appears in the projection.

"I am Lieutenant Commander Thoron in charge of guarding the Folsun system, the will of the Holy Emperor is above, the opportunity for humanity to come out of the Dark Ages has come, the great Galactic Empire has brought the opportunity for redemption, they have crossed the eternal night storm to come to the Koplu Star Zone, just so that humanity can once again rule the galaxy of the manifest destiny. Instead of making useless resistance for the sake of a corrupt regime, all humanity should unite in the great mission of unifying the galaxy. ”

"Damned traitors, intercept this news and never allow them to shake the hearts of our troops." "Get the ships ready to open fire, and we will fight to the death until the last moment." ”

As a member of the Bennett family, who are on a par with the Rockefellers, Gammolim was ready to die for the Tyranid Empire.

Under his orders, Fort Melmer's fleet rallied, relying on armed space stations and Void Fortresses, and opened fire on the invaders.

The void was lit up by artillery fire in a very short time.

Dense torpedoes, missiles, beams lit up the dark world.

Gammolim was brave and ready to sacrifice.

He knew he would lose the war, but the only thing he wanted to do was fight to the death until the last moment and bite off a piece of the opponent's flesh.

But he underestimated these invaders who claimed to be from the Galactic Empire.

When the shield protecting the harbor was first breached, the light of the teleportation lit up near the military headquarters fortress.

Heavily armoured, weapon-wielding legionnaires leap from the teleportation light and attack all the soldiers in sight.

They are nightmares from hell, angels of the god of destruction.

Everyone who has seen them will subconsciously associate them with the word destruction.

Bai Qi personally descended with his personal guard company and raided the military headquarters where Ganmorin was.

This is a decapitation tactic that has been developed for a long time.

The Port of Fort Melbourne will become the Galactic Empire's outpost in Koplou.

If they break it to pieces, it will take them time to rebuild, so decapitation tactics are the best option.

As long as the head of the giant beast is cut off, the entire huge body will quickly fall.

Smond, Toras, and the others gathered around Bai Qi, and together they headed towards their final destination.

Shaped into a spherical drone, it hovers in the air, raining down a barrage of bullets at the soldiers of the Tyranid Empire, harvesting their lives in patches.

The strength of the Tyranid Empire is far weaker than that of the Sith Empire.

The Sith Knights were able to at least tolerate the surprise attack of the legionnaires, and even inflicted some casualties on the Second Legion.

The soldiers of the Tyran Empire were powerless to stop Bai Qi and the others, and the defense line they had built was destroyed, and the only thing they could do when they rushed out to fight was to be chopped to pieces.

It wasn't until they arrived at the Supreme Military Headquarters that Bai Qi and the others encountered decent resistance.

A group of marines wearing heavy armor armed with electromagnetic spike guns intercepted Bai Qi and others.

The Electromagnetic Spike Gun has a strong armor-piercing ability.

The Legionnaire's projected shield of Power Armor is also not resistant.

Their appearance made Bai Qi and the others have to slow down.

The Marines of the Tyranid Empire also wear heavy, multi-functional, fully enclosed power armor that resembles a Legionnaire in appearance.

It's just a pity that it's just similar.

The genetic body shaped by the God Emperor is the reason why the legionnaires are invincible.

Once those marines were approached by Bai Qi and the others and launched a melee strike, they were no match at all.

With a savage charge, Bai Qi and the others rushed into the line formed by those marines.

The white sword slashed through a marine's spike spear, plunging the blade into the opponent's chest, slicing directly through the opponent's torso.

Seeing this, a Marine next to him raised his gun and opened fire, a barrage of spike bullets piercing the shield, striking his breastplate violently, biting through the heavy armor plate, revealing the lines inside, and the oil and electric sparks burst together.

Bai Qi swept his sword and chopped off the opponent's head, and the blood gushing out of it splattered to the ground.

These Marines resisted fiercely and stubbornly, but they could not escape defeat.

Even if they wear good power armor, they can't close the gap between them and the legionnaires.

After the last Marine fell to the ground, Bai Qi and others ordered people to plant bombs, blew open the alloy metal door of the Supreme Military Command, and walked in.

Hiding behind the door, the soldiers who tried to open fire were slaughtered.

The remaining commanders and technicians were easily controlled.

Ganmorin was also captured because of the flying debris, which resulted in leg injuries.

He was dragged in front of Bai Qi.

"Give orders to your troops and make them surrender." Bai Qi took off his helmet and looked down condescendingly at the marshal of the Tyranid Empire, "There is no need for their lives to be wasted in a meaningless battle. ”

The battle outside is still not over.

The defenders and fleets of Fort Melber are still resisting the Galactic Empire.

"No, how can it be pointless that they fought to defend their homeland and died heroically against the invaders."

Ganmorin looked at Bai Qi without fear.

"I'm standing here now, which means you've lost." Bai Qi said patiently, "Let the war stop, there is no need to waste the lives of those compatriots." ”

"We will fight to the last drop of blood." "We will not surrender unless you leave the borders of the Tyranid Empire. ”

"Are you sure you won't surrender?" Bai Qi looked at the Marshal of the Tyranid Empire on the ground in front of him and asked again.

"I will never betray the Tyranid Empire to which I am allegiated." Ganmorin shouted.

Bai Qi didn't speak again, he waved the sword in his hand.

The opponent's head fell to the ground and rolled on the ground.

The Second Expeditionary Force's main mission is to go to Earth, and it is only a matter of passing to rescue human civilizations along the way or to get those civilizations to join the Empire.

There are still many compatriots in the galaxy who are suffering, and there is no need to waste time on those who are stubborn.

Bai Qi doesn't care what good qualities they have, and he doesn't care what influence they have.

Those people are in the way, and they should be sent to their deaths.

Surrender, live.

Death to the foolish who resist stubbornly.

That's all, don't think too much about it.

Bai Qi walked towards Ganmorin's aide-de-camp, Heller.

His sword was still dripping with blood, and the arc of energy on its surface crackled.

"What about you? Let them stop, reduce the sacrifice, or I kill you, go ask the next one. ”

Heller, kneeling on the ground, looked horrified.

The Admiral of the Tyranid Empire - Gammolim died like this.

This is not in line with the rules of war as Heller perceives it.

What about preferential commanders?

What about many persuasions?

"Silence is the answer." Shiroki raised his sword, ready to cut off Heller's head.

"I surrender."

Heller shouted in horror that he really didn't want to die

Today, fifteen thousand five.

Bai Qi was born in the lower class and never had any mercy for life.

Don't think he'll be courteous to the corporal and give preference to those who seem loyal.

Thrawn said that surrender was fast, so he could survive, but if he fired a cannon, the families of the defenders of the Folsun system would have to go to the Tyranid Empire for a pension.

(End of chapter)
