Chapter 718 Heavy Damage
Guilliman stood on the bridge, looking gloomily at the three giant warships in front of the Word Bearers fleet.
The Raging Abyss, the Saint, and the Triumvirate.
Guilliman had seen his brother Rogal Dorn's flagship, the Phalanx, and the sacredness and shock brought by the great creation shining with golden light was still fresh in his memory. But these three warships were completely different. Their trident-like shape and the remnants of the warp storm wrapped around them made them look like some kind of evil existence that was about to destroy everything. Guilliman didn't want to use this expression similar to Magnus, but he had to admit that from these three steel creations, he only saw the twisted embodiment of strong evil and hatred.
At the same time, the countdown ended.
[Count: -0.00.00]
But it was not these three evil and terrifying giant ships that launched the attack first.
"Destroy the Inquisition! Revenge for the Primarch!!"
The World Eaters' warships rushed out like a group of mad dogs and rushed directly towards the Inquisition fleet.
"This bunch of damn bastards!!"
Seeing this scene, Lorgar was completely speechless. After Angron's death, he had been trying to control the World Eaters, but this group of crazy idiots was even worse than Angron. Since Angron's death, they have been eager to avenge their Primarch. They vowed to search every corner of the galaxy and slaughter the Inquisition.
Well... Lorgar really doubted whether they could do it. After all, he had read the battle record at that time. The furious Angron was beaten up head-on and then killed... Well, even Lorgar was frightened.
He didn't think that the World Eaters could avenge their Primarch.
But now…
“Can’t they be more careful?!”
Looking at the World Eater warships rushing out of the fleet and flying towards the opposite side, Lorgar’s calmness just now completely disappeared. He was like a conductor of a symphony orchestra, just raising his hand to play a beautiful symphony, and then someone in his own band suddenly played "Zhu Bajie Carrying His Wife" with a suona, and he was completely confused.
“They are World Eaters, Lorgar, what else can you expect them to do?”
Magnus seemed very calm.
“To be honest, what gave you the idea that you could control a group of masochists who voluntarily added mechanical pleasures to their brains to make them suffer from endless pain?”
“But I didn’t expect it… Well, maybe I didn’t expect it…”
Lorgar didn’t know what to say, so he simply didn’t say it.
Everything was perfect. The three Abyssal-class warships would tear apart the Ultramarines' fleet with their huge firepower and then destroy them. Then the World Eaters and Word Bearers would be able to enter the Five Hundred Worlds and destroy everything Guilliman had been protecting in front of him. But now, this damn group of bastards who like to be tortured in pain and have nothing to do except fighting, killing and enjoying pain have destroyed everything!
Looking at the World Eaters fleet that is now rushing forward and starting to engage in a firefight with the Ultramarines fleet, Lorgar has an urge to really order the Abyssal-class warships to destroy them all together.
Unfortunately, he can't.
"Attack forward! Force the Ultramarines to retreat!"
Lorgar gave the order viciously.
"I want to see how long these Ultramarines can hold on!"
At the same time, on the Ultramarines side, Guilliman was also discussing the same issue with Duanmu Huai.
"You know, when I saw these warships just now, I was still worried about their firepower."
Looking at the crazy suicide attack of the World Eaters fleet in front of him, Guilliman was a little overwhelmed. The most common thing for the Ultramarines is to study various tactics, so nothing makes them feel more speechless than seeing their tactics being messed up in front of them.
"So they are World Eaters, and they belong to the curve loyalty faction just like the evil gods they believe in. It proves again that they really should stand on the opposite side. They are more trustworthy and reliable as our enemies than as our companions. To be honest, I have been waiting for this scene to come."
Duanmu Huai looked gloating. Whenever there was a battle with Tyrannical Wrath or its believers, players would sooner or later wait for such a good show, and now is naturally no exception.
"What is curve loyalty?"
"This is curve loyalty."
"Well, from a certain perspective, they are indeed loyal..."
Guilliman was speechless. He even felt a little sympathetic to Lorgar now. To be honest, if Guilliman saw that someone among his Ultramarines would do this, he might have the idea of committing suicide.
"Report to the commander, the enemy is beginning to advance."
"Then we will retreat according to the plan, and the rest is up to you, Grand Inquisitor."
"Don't worry, the universe is round, and I'll make them remember this."
As the Word Bearers advanced, the Ultramarines and the Inquisition's fleets began to retreat rapidly. At this moment, Lorgar could only change the plan and order the Word Bearers fleet to speed up and merge with the World Eaters fleet in front of them like mad dogs. Although the Abyss-class battleships were also advancing, they could not attack - after all, their firepower was too powerful, and any attack was enough to turn the front line into a sea of fire.
So if there were no friendly forces on the front line, they were indeed great lethal weapons.
But... are they considered friendly forces?
Looking at the interlaced beams of light and the explosion of fire ahead, Luojia was speechless.
"I will have a good talk with Horus after I go back. Maybe the World Exiters should not act under my command."
"hehe."
In response, Magnus just gave a sneer. However, at this moment, the scream of the bird divination leader suddenly came from behind him.
"Report! Sir, we have discovered an extremely large psychic signal...it's down there!"
"What?"
Luojia was stunned, and subconsciously lowered his head to look down. Then, he saw something that was unimaginable to him.
The universe is changing.
A shining blue light emerged from the universe, and then three crystal-clear, giant warships that looked like works of art emerged from it. Like giant whales roaring in the sea, they rushed straight up and stabbed directly at the three. The hinterland of an Abyss-class battleship.
Yes, we have to explain one thing here. Although most fleet battles seem to be conducted on a plane, in fact, in the universe, you can attack from any direction and angle. No matter it's above, below, left or right. Or a thirty-degree angle, a sixty-degree angle, any angle, any direction.
Therefore, it should not be surprising at all when three protoss motherships rush towards the advancing abyss warships above them at a vertical angle and penetrate them like a spear.
but it is not the truth.
"No-----!!"
Lorgar's eyes widened, and he just watched helplessly as the three giant, powerful, and extremely evil steel fortresses he obtained were penetrated like this - the void shield was powerless against the impact of the protoss mothership. The Memories of Nirvana, the Spear of Adun and the Pride of Otalis penetrated and penetrated the Iron Demon's body.
Fortunately, the conical appearance of the Protoss Mothership does indeed look like a knight's spear.
Then they exploded.
The huge power generated by the explosion of the protoss warship driven by artificial stars as energy is unimaginable. At that moment, the shining white light almost enveloped the entire galaxy, and it even seemed to make people mistakenly think that a second sun appeared. , ruthless storms and shock waves suddenly erupted, sweeping and destroying everything around them.
Unfortunately, there happened to be an advancing fleet of Word Bearers all around.
"No-------!!!"
Lorgar only had time to let out this wailing cry, because the next moment, his flagship Loyal Rhythm also trembled suddenly under the violent impact, and then various rapid alarms and shining red lights suddenly filled the entire space.
Of course, this explosion affected more than just the World Death and the Word Bearers.
The powerful explosion even struck directly at Calth and the defense systems in orbit. These defense systems were originally used to deal with the incoming enemies, but now they are as fragile and helpless in the face of this violent explosion as the branches of a hurricane, and the battleships of the Ultramarines have also been blown away They drove away. Although they defended and evaded in time, they were still scattered like leaves blown away by the storm.
"...Okay, I'm sorry, it seems these guys' explosions are a little more powerful than I thought."
Duanmuhuai seemed very calm. After all, the Inquisition's fleet was far superior in defense to warships of this era, but he had to admit that he did not expect that the explosion of the three protoss motherships would have such a big impact.
"It's really unexpected."
Guilliman had just climbed up from the deck at this moment. Looking at the battlefield in front of him, he was also extremely horrified. You must know that the Word Bearers themselves have a lot of people, and this time they are dispatched in full force. Coupled with the World Death fleet, the thousands of warships are indeed more than the entire Five Hundred Worlds, as well as the three Abyss ships. -class battleship——Well, in Guilliman’s opinion, this was supposed to be a fierce battle.
But now, the entire battlefield has become... quite clean.
Yes, very clean.
The Word Bearers fleet that was originally densely packed and charging forward was almost completely destroyed in the incredible explosion just now. Only a few ships were lucky enough to escape from behind. At this moment, they had also lost their formation due to the shock wave. , in disarray, scattered left and right in the back.
Of course, his fleet of Ultramarines wasn't much better. The originally neat formation turned into a mass of loose sand. If a well-disciplined fleet rushed over at this time, they could even break through without any effort. The Ultramarines' defense network.
Unfortunately not.
But the battle was still not over. Although most of the Word Bearers battleships were destroyed, those fleets that rushed forward enough to engage in melee with the Ultramarines fleet still survived. Of course, most of them were dead. The fighter's fleet.
Of course, they did not choose to retreat.
So the battle continues.
"Let those Gray Knights go up. The next battle is quite suitable as their debut battle."
Duanmu Huai looked at the Word Bearers and World Death warships that were continuing to rush towards him and others like crazy, and said calmly. They also know that they have no way to survive. The fleet behind them has been almost wiped out, and the three Abyss-class ships have been completely destroyed. If they turn around and run away now, they will only become a pile of garbage under the salvo of the Ultramarines warships, so they There is only one choice.
"I won't accompany you anymore."
Duanmu Huai had no interest in fighting a group of lunatics, especially those who were cornered.
"The rest is up to you, Guilliman."
