Chapter 407: Expedition Road: Newcomers to the Battleship
A dense number of military boots ran quickly through the cold marble corridor. They stepped on the ground together and echoed a dull sound, but it was soon swallowed up by a louder explosion. In the roar, with a flash of fire, a mutilated body with only the upper body left fell to the ground.
Amid the bursts of gunfire, the sound of the running of military boots was constantly accompanied by the sound of the body hitting the ground. With another flash of gunfire, the soldiers in the corridor rushed out of the dark corridor. They ran out of the door at the end of the corridor.
One of the soldiers with blood on his face ran out of the door and hid to the side. He fell on the door control interface. When he just touched the interface, a roar sounded again in the door next to him, and another mutilated body fell beside him with a flash.
The soldier looked at his companion with torn intestines flowing out, and suddenly pulled down the emergency brake handle in front of him. As the orange handle was pulled to the end, the steel door beside him fell down instantly, closed at a very fast speed and locked in the door bolt.
The soldiers who escaped outside the door turned around and looked at the door with their guns. The man at the door also breathed a sigh of relief. He leaned one elbow on the door frame and took a long breath. His comrades standing in the dark hall beside him also sighed for a long time, but at the moment they breathed out, a violent explosion suddenly occurred at the door.
The instantaneous explosion engulfed the soldier at the door in the blink of an eye. His figure disappeared almost in the blink of an eye, and even the splash of blood could not be seen. Everything there was shrouded in the smoke raised by the explosion. There was only darkness and a broken hand flying out of the smoke.
The officer in front of the arch at the other end of the hall looked at the severed hand that slipped in front of him. He suddenly raised his head and looked towards the smoky gate. He immediately waved his hand to a soldier wearing a gas mask with a flashing green light beside him. The latter immediately raised his palm to more soldiers around him with his gun.
A large number of soldiers rushed out from the dark corners and corridor exits around them. They all dodged and covered the boxes, steps and guardrails around them with their guns in their hands. In the corridor on the upper floor of the hall, soldiers with guns rushed out in groups. They immediately placed their guns on the guardrails and aimed forward.
And below, among the soldiers who entered the bunker, a movable anti-material heavy machine gun was pushed out from the gate. Several soldiers wearing gas masks pushed it onto the bunker together. Then the shooter jumped into the shooting position and raised the butt of the heavy machine gun to aim forward.
The officer stood beside the heavy machine gun with a gun in hand. He looked at the direction of the door filled with smoke, and a glass surface appeared in the smoke. The space inside the glass echoed with a low breathing sound, and suddenly several thermal imaging objects appeared on the surface of the glass through the smoke.
Almost instantly, the bottom of the glass lit up with fire, and the flashing muzzle of the grenade gun instantly dispersed the surrounding smoke. A bomb whistled in and hit the shooter behind the heavy machine gun with a superb shot. The officer turned his head in shock and looked at the machine gun shooter who fell backwards to the ground, and the deputy shooter who was squatting on the ground beside him was also shot.
The deputy shooter's body shattered and sprayed backwards. In the splashing rotten meat, more bombs whistled in, and a blood flower exploded around the officer in an instant. He raised his head in shock and looked in the direction of the smoke. The fog there had disappeared, replaced by several flashing grenade guns.
The Astartes came in from behind the broken hole in the gate. They fired their bolters at all directions, but every bolt was accurate and almost no shot missed. In the blink of an eye, all the soldiers around the officer turned into splattering blood.
They didn't even have time to fire any shots before they were shattered by the flying bolt. The officer raised his head and looked at the corridor above. There were a few soldiers there who fired machine guns before being killed. They stood above and fired at the Astartes who walked into the hall below.
But the bullets fired from their guns could not penetrate the Astartes' armor at all. The whistling bullets were instantly bounced away, leaving no scratches. The Astartes, who was walking at the head of the team, raised his head and looked up. He raised his bolter and fired a few shots in the direction of his head.
Following a few gunshots, the officer heard the sound of someone falling to the ground above his head. He looked at the Astartes walking in front of him and quickly hid in a side corridor. In the blink of an eye, several more people fell behind a box on the side. The box in front of them was shot through, and the shooter behind was accurately shot to the ground.
The officer leaned against the exit wall of the corridor and pulled out the intercom from his waist, "We can't stop them! The power of destruction is above, we need support! We need."
"Hello, are you still there? Hello?" The voice echoed in the intercom that fell to the ground, but the person who was supposed to answer his question could no longer answer. The officer stood aside for a short moment and then collapsed to the ground. His upper body disappeared in shock, leaving only the part below the waist leaning against the wall.
"Can you still hear me? Are you okay? Hello, hey, hello?" the intercom continued to ask. Blood flowed from the incision of the officer's broken waist. The blood flooded the edge of the intercom and was also reflected in the blood. The thing that killed the officer was revealed, a bright power sword slashed into the wall.
The power sword flashing with blue lightning was pulled out at once. Standing beside the slumped corpse, Astartes held the sword in his hand. He stared at the corpse on the ground, then turned his head and looked behind him from the hall. The golden-armored giant walked among them, walking in a dark hall.
But that wasn't right, it wasn't dark here. The Astartes who were marching and firing with their backs to him illuminated the hall with the light of their bolters. In the flickering light of the fire, the golden-armored giant walked over. Astartes, who was holding a power sword, looked at him. Behind him, a woman holding a flaming phoenix staff waved her palm lightly, and in an instant, a ball of flames swept out from behind the golden giant.
The fire blasted into the flanking corridor on the other side of the sword-wielding Astartes. The fire rushed into it instantly, and a flash of fire engulfed everything in it. Amidst the screams, the golden giant walked up under the light of the fire. , the two women following him also followed, the firelight shining on their silver and crimson hair.
The golden giant walked slowly, and he nodded slightly to the sword-holding Astartes. The latter then walked into the archway on the wall of the hall with the sword after a slight signal from the helmet, and there were several Astartes behind him. Start followed with guns drawn, their heavy footsteps echoing in the dark corridor.
The golden-armored giant walked to the body slumped on the ground at the entrance of the wing corridor. He turned his head slightly and glanced at the intercom on the ground. He listened to the shouts and pulled out the bolt gun on his waist. He raised He pointed his gun at the walkie-talkie on the ground and fired.
The call channel was disconnected instantly. The Bird Captain sitting in the bridge hall was startled. He immediately turned his head and looked at the surveillance screen on the other screen on the left. He looked at the guards running back from the corridor. They kept firing back, only to be reduced to pieces by a flash of roaring gunfire.
In the blood mist, corpses fell to the ground, and a burly giant walked out of the narrow corridor behind them. He strode forward holding a power sword. He waved it as he walked through the corridor. The activated power sword instantly chopped into pieces the soldier who rushed out from the corner of the flank, holding a cluster grenade.
Astartes walked past the surveillance screen. On the flashing surveillance interface, another Astartes walked out behind him. He looked in the direction of the surveillance camera with a gun in his hand, and then took aim with his gun. The direction of the screen was changed, and with a flash of light, the entire monitoring interface completely disappeared.
The Oracle was startled and then raised his head and looked behind him, "Captain! All the naval infantry have been wiped out, and the Astartes who invaded the ship are advancing rapidly along the corridor!"
The captain sitting above Captain Bird rubbed his forehead in annoyance. He sat on the throne full of skull marks. The captain's face was full of confusion, "I don't understand. All the Iron Warriors on our ship have jumped." We sent it to the other side, why do people from the empire still land on us?”
The captain could not understand the reason for this attack at all. All the rebel Astartes on his ship had already left. They had all jumped to the opposite ship. Why would the Empire's Astartes jump to join him? Come? If they just want to destroy their own ship, just let the golden giant ship fire from the side.
Although the void shield of the strike cruiser is still in operation, the golden battleship has proven with the countless wreckage floating in orbit that it can easily penetrate the shield of any battleship of the Chaos fleet and turn any battleship into a floating object in the universe. The steel debris was then captured by the planet's gravity and fell into the atmosphere.
So why are the Imperial Astartes boarding the ship? Why? There is nothing on their ship, just a ship of mortal sailors. They don't need to use the Astartes to kill them, right? It's like nuking a cockroach, and you could just stomp it to death.
Shouldn't these Imperial Astartes be staying aboard their own ships to defend them at this moment? The captain could not understand the reason for their landing.
"Can you contact the Iron Warriors who boarded the ship?" the captain asked the Bird Oracle below, who turned to look at the screen in front of him and then shook his head, "No, no, captain, their signal Cut off by the battleship's armor, we can't contact them."
The captain sat on the throne and rubbed his forehead. His fingers anxiously touched the Chaos Hexagram logo on the armrest of the throne. The captain raised his head and looked down, "Where did those Astartes go? The reactor? If they go It'll give us time to get to the escape pod, and then we can eject and escape back to the fleet."
"No, Captain!" Captain Bird shouted. He raised his head and looked at the Captain behind him, with a look of fear on his face. "They didn't go to the reactor, they didn't even get close! They were heading towards Let’s come here, in the direction of the bridge!”
"What?! But here, there is nothing!" The captain stood up straight on the throne, but he knew that he could go directly to ask those visitors. The captain looked at the Birdmaster below and turned his head to the side. Go, and then the whole person exploded instantly, turning into a sheet of blood spraying on the surrounding screen beside him.
The captain raised his head in surprise and looked down. The crew members below turned their heads from their chairs. Then, after a heavy gunshot, the entire chair and the people were broken. The broken chair back debris mixed with the human body debris sprayed forward.
The sailor sitting on the other side quickly stood up, but as soon as he stood up, he was shot and flew out. He hit the wall on one side and instantly turned into a piece of rotten meat stuck to the wall. He was sprayed on the wall and instantly turned into a sticky object similar to glue.
The captain stood up from the throne. He looked at the sailors lying on the ground below. Their bodies shattered and exploded under the bombardment. A large area of blood mist instantly filled the lower part of the entire bridge. The sailors were constantly bombarded by the Astartes who walked in from the gate on one side of the bridge.
Every shot of the Astartes was successful, and the number of living people in the entire bridge dropped to single digits in an instant. The captain did not intend to stay here when it became zero. He quickly jumped off the throne and dragged his coat to the stairs of the bridge platform.
But as soon as he ran to the stairs, he saw blood all over the ground. He looked down at the stairs full of red blood. Pieces of blood were flowing down the stairs like a waterfall. On the stairs, a woman holding a knife in both hands was walking up with a smile.
Her graceful body bypassed the corpses on both sides. She stepped on the stairs with a sword in her hand and approached the captain. The latter looked at the approaching silver-haired woman and immediately pulled out the pistol on his waist and aimed at her.
"Don't move! Get out of my way. I want it." The captain choked before he finished speaking. His hand holding the gun suddenly loosened, and the pistol hit the ground and landed on the side of the captain's head.
The silver-haired woman walked past the collapsed body, swung her long sword, and a piece of blood instantly flew out from the back of the sword. In the red blood drops splashing on the ground, the woman walked to the armrest in front of the throne. She stood on the helmsman's platform and looked down.
On the helmsman's platform, there was a man with only half of his arm and body left, but he was quickly pulled down. The body collapsed on the ground on one side, and after raising a piece of blood, it made way for the person who walked up to the platform.
The man in golden armor stood on the side of the rudder. His armor suddenly knelt on one knee on the ground and opened to both sides. One of the people jumped out. He patted the wrinkles on his clothes and walked behind the rudder.
Below him, the scarlet-haired woman holding a flaming staff came out. She had just walked out of the narrow space beside the captain's platform. The Astartes standing on the bridge saw her and moved to both sides with guns in her back. They looked down at the woman in front of them. She walked over and walked under the helmsman's position between the giants.
After she glanced at the planet outside the huge porthole of the bridge, she raised her head and looked at the new helmsman standing on it, "Vito, you'd better know what you are doing."
"You don't believe in the emperor, but you can't believe in me? Xiaona, when has my plan ever failed?" Vito said as he pressed the rudder, while Iyanna below him looked at her coldly, then sat on a seat on the side and fastened the seat belt around her waist.
"Last time you asked me to trust you, I ended up breaking my nose. For the next month, you'll be amused by laughing at my crooked nose."
Iyanna buckled the safety buckle and said calmly. She looked up at Malakin, who took off his helmet and stood beside her. She pointed at the head of the warband leader, "If I were you, I would put that thing back on and find a stable place to sit."
Malkin raised his eyebrows in dismay, then looked up at Vito above, who smiled and shrugged. Malakin looked at the smile and was a little confused, but when he saw Lilith sitting on the throne, Malakin seemed to realize something. He twitched his eyelids and looked in Vito's direction again.
Vito had already pressed the rudder. He quickly and violently turned the round rudder. In the rapid roll, the warship under Malakin's feet also made a huge turn. The warband leader looked at the starry sky passing by quickly outside the window. Everything outside the window was almost a residual image.
The entire strike cruiser quickly rotated under Vito's rotation, and the hull flew forward and detoured.
It passed under the Fantasy Dream, which was flying overhead. The golden giant ship above began to turn above the hull. Its huge thrusters sprayed to make the long hull turn slowly. Countless shells hit the side of the Fantasy Dream, and dense explosions lit it up.
The strike cruiser below rushed straight down, and the unique square hull of the Space Marines plunged headfirst into the surface of the planet. The huge thrusters roared behind it, causing it to crash under the starport and plunge into the planet's atmosphere.
"Everyone! Stand firm!" The commander shouted and put his helmet back on his head. Iyanna, who was sitting next to him, leaned back in her chair, shrugged lightly, and looked calmly at the rapidly approaching surface of the planet outside the window.
"Welcome to the Vito Plan."
