Chapter 142 The End of the World: Daily Life in the Era of Expeditions

"Marshal, the advance of the Third Company has been hindered. Captain Loken is seeking support." A member of the bridge quickly ran up and shouted. He stood in front of the large holographic tactical map. The officer took the data tablet in his hand and looked at it. Look, he gives it to Vito in front of the map.

The salvo of the Vengeful Spirit's powerful macro cannon shook the bridge, but Vito took the data version very calmly. Most people here were advancing their work in an orderly manner, and countless Mechanicum cogitator systems Densely, but completely cooperating with each other in an orderly manner.

The operators were busy sitting in the arc-shaped bridge hall. Their fingers passed over the keyboards one by one. The low and soft sounds of the keyboards and the thunderous roars of the rail guns and macro guns turned into a piece of music. A battlefield symphony with high and low notes.

Vito raised his head and looked outside the bridge. An entire fleet, the entire Expedition Fleet No. 16, was hovering in the orbit of the planet. All the ships, all the macro cannons and light spears were venting the legion's power on the planet's surface. Anger, venting the Warmaster's anger.

Vito quickly slid the holographic map, and the priests of the Mechanicus immediately responded. The members of the Mechanicus in red robes quickly slid the spectrum with their mechanical fingers, and clicked on the buttons and information nodes to lock the map correctly.

Marshal Vito Constantine, who was wearing a purple robe, looked at the map, and then pointed his finger at the location of the holographic beacon, "Command the destroyers Time, Serenity and Moon to enter the orbit of the A-063 basin. Orbitally bombard enemy positions to eliminate threats."

"Deploy a squadron of Lightning fighters, immediately withdraw from the edge of the palace, head to the basin to destroy possible orbital anti-aircraft weapons, and then immediately return to B-003 to support the fifth company. Acemande will need them."

"Command, Marshal!" The officer stood at attention and saluted and immediately went to issue the order. He quickly ran behind the battlefield information controller to issue a new order. Vito's order was effectively passed on. Half a minute later, the three destroyers in the fleet started Turned.

"Old horse! Order the 11th and 14th companies to prepare for the airborne landing! It's their turn!" Vito said to the burly Luna Wolf Space Marine on the side, Malorgest, a highly respected figure in the legion. The veteran, the Warmaster's closest lieutenant, nodded affirmatively, then strode off to give the order.

"Correspondent, tell the Third Company that they must knock down the star port for me within an hour! Quick!" "Yes! Marshal Constantine!"

Vito turned his head and looked at the tactical map. The chaotic real-time battlefield seemed extremely messy. Countless tactical unit beacons were scurrying around, and new states were occurring almost every moment and every second.

Firefights, assaults, insertions, and ambushes are happening all the time. This cannot be effectively commanded by ordinary people. Even with an entire staff, it must be extremely difficult to process such a huge amount of information and respond in a timely manner. It is impossible for ordinary people to do it. .

But fortunately for the Luna Wolves and the Sixteenth Expedition Fleet, Vito Constantine can do just that. It is not without reason that he is called the war master alongside the Warmaster.

Vitor fought alongside nearly every legion, commanding countless brutal battles and commanding the victory of the Emperor's Angels of Death over the past two centuries, long before the return of the Primarchs. The various legions were not handed over to the Primarchs until their return.

He can even control Angron. If you taste the meaning of this sentence carefully, he can control Angron!

Although it means that the guy can wait for the deployment to be completed and lead the people up when everything is ready, but since he can let Angron wait until the deployment is completed to kill people, and he will not be killed by Angron in the meantime, I I dare say this is definitely a galaxy-level miracle!

There were rumors that Dorn had made a bet with Perturabo. The two of them bet on whether the defense lines built by each other could be breached. The final answer was that whoever could shake Vitor over to help would win. .

Space Marines rarely respect mortals, but Vito is definitely an exception. Although many people think that he is as sacred as the Emperor, they are all great beings who have lived almost as long as human civilization. It is even said that among the idiots who believe in the Emperor There are also sects who regard him as a god, worshiping him as an immortal saint who worked with the Emperor to save human civilization.

Of course, Vito has always denied this. He, like the Emperor, has firmly refuted this outrageous "religious superstition", but it is as useless as ever. Believers still exist, and sects still exist.

It is as if what Lorgar said is true, the existence of the Emperor can make people spontaneously have faith and piety. This is the absolute embodiment of the Emperor's divinity.

Vito's eyes quickly scanned the chaotic battle situation on the battlefield. He raised his finger, and the staff officer on the side immediately picked up data and started recording new orders.

"Order the Titan Legion to complete preparations immediately. The Emperor-class Titans are ready to deploy to the ground at any time. The Knight Squadron will quickly deploy first to ensure the safety of the landing site. Give them a company of Space Marines, and bring a brigade of the Imperial Army to prepare immediately!"

Almost as soon as he finished speaking, all the orders were recorded at the same time. The officer immediately turned around and ran towards the members of the Mechanicus in red robes. He loudly issued the marshal's new orders to them, his voice was extremely loud and seemed to want to Overwhelmed by the noisy sound of artillery outside the window.

Vito's fingers suddenly pushed open all the data lists. He quickly clicked on the interface to open the communication channel, and quickly completed the switching lock without the help of the technical priest.

The beacon of the 7th Company of the Moon Wolves appeared in front of him, and the familiar and humorous voice also appeared in the frequency band.

"Hello, Marshal, what can I do for you?" Torgadon's usual funny laughter appeared with audio jitters, and there was a burst of shooting from his bolter, and the chainsaw sword was swung and cut amid the roar of thunder.

"No, I'm here to serve you. I guess you can't push it now, right? There is a group of bunkers in front of you?" Vito said with a smile, and countless holographic beacons appeared in front of him.

Torgadon laughed, and there was another burst of bolter explosions over there, "Yes, do you have any gifts for me? I hope it's something good." "Of course, look up."

Torgadon on the surface raised his head. His white armor was covered with dust and blood after a fierce fight, which mixed together to become a sticky black mucus. Its disgusting liquid-like object covered the white armor, making it look even more black armor.

Torgadon looked at the huge creature falling from the clouds above his head. The giant transport ship spewed blazing flames and fell from the sky, like a giant whale diving from the clouds.

Torgadon took off his helmet, rubbed his bald head and laughed, "Your gift is good, much better than the wine that Aximand gave me last time. He said it was a gift from the Dark Angel, but I just can't get used to it. You are so fierce! Awesome!"

Torgadon watched the giant transport ship slowly fall. It hovered at a height of 100 meters above the ground and opened the belly hatch. In an instant, three knight-class Titans landed with a bang, just like three giants falling from the sky.

Three Titans with the exclusive white paint of the Legion slowly stood up, and the giant's metal head turned to the battlefield, and the blue eyes also lit up one by one.

The huge Titan took a heavy step, and the other two Titans followed behind it. The three Titans walked towards the battlefield together, and their heavy steps stepped on the power that shook the earth.

Torgadon smiled, put on his helmet and raised his bolter, "Brothers! The Marshal's express has arrived! Follow me!"

The soldiers of the Seventh Company rushed past Torgadon in groups, and the Titan's iron feet stepped past Torgadon, and thunderous artillery fire roared above his head.

"By the way, how is the match between Gaviel and Abaddon now?" Torgadon asked. Vito raised his eyebrows and opened the display interface. He looked at the location of the beacon of the Seventh Company.

Vito smiled and looked at the beacon, "It seems that Gaviel is about to win this time. He is faster than Abaddon in attack speed."

"That kid is too eager for recognition. He clearly doesn't need it, but he just likes to compete."

Loken made a bet with Abaddon before landing. At first, it was because the newly promoted Tenth Company Captain was eager to prove himself. He hoped to prove to the Warmaster that he could take on this important task.

This is not surprising. Gavial Loken is the youngest captain in the legion, no one else. Loken is so young and has such an important task. Loken has been discussed a lot. Many officers of the Luna Wolves have questioned this. Even among Loken's own 10th Company, there are many such veterans.

Although Loken is highly respected by the younger generation and has the support of Torgaddon and himself, the young captain is still eager to prove his ability and let the legion see it. So he found Horus before the operation began. He asked the Warmaster to give him the important task of the first landing.

Of course, as Vito expected, Abaddon jumped out to test him at that time. The captain of the first company, who had made great achievements in the war, immediately expressed his opposition, believing that only he and his elite could take on this important task. Only in this way would the glory of the legion and the Warmaster not be damaged. As you expected, Loken was furious and felt that Abaddon was insulting him.

So, when the two captains were about to fight over this matter, Horus, as always, showed his unparalleled leadership. He did not praise or agree with anyone, but asked them to land on the ground together in the first wave, and then take the "emperor's" "palace" of the locals who refused to roll as the target, to see who would take down the throne room first.

This was a competition, obviously, Horus asked Loken and Abaddon to have a commando competition, whoever took down the throne room first would be the outstanding officer under his command, and in this way, the two used their anger on each other on the enemy.

And now, Loken obviously fought harder, his commandos and the nearest arrivals arrived at the inner court of the palace, and were clearing obstacles and rushing towards the throne room.

But Vito could see that Abaddon did not intend to win, his troops had been fighting slowly on the periphery, and even helped Loken intercept some enemy reinforcements.

Vito laughed. He opened an encrypted communication channel, and immediately a beacon that had never appeared before appeared on the map. That beacon appeared together with Abaddon's beacon, with a striking name on it.

Wolf God.

"The little wolf cub is going to win. You don't have to help him intercept the enemy with Abaddon."

"Haha, do you want to congratulate him on his victory?" The magnetic voice said, and Vito laughed and stood up to see Loken's beacon rushing into the throne room.

"Okay, I just want to find some loot on the ground to put on the shelf." "Then we have to end the battle as soon as possible, Marshal, before everything is broken by those little cubs."

Vito smiled slightly and turned to the bridge handrail. He looked at the communicator below, who immediately turned his head and said, "Prepare for airborne." "How many people are going to be the marshal?"

"All members of the legion."
