Chapter 209 "Target, Mars!"

The main universe, Earth.

The Luna transport boat, escorted by two Phantom III multi-purpose fighters, left the Seattle headquarters building and was heading towards the space city 40,000 kilometers above the equator.

Moreover, when they reached a height with extremely thin oxygen content, the two Phantom III fighters still maintained their formation until they left the atmosphere and entered outer space along with the Luna transport craft.

In fact, these two Phantom III fighters, which look similar to the original models, are not just what they look like. They are just slightly taller and thicker, but are equipped with micro-nuclear fusion engines.

Abandoning the traditional jet engine, the ghosts of the third generation and beyond can also become an integrated air and space combat unit.

After all, the main carrier-based aircraft of the Atlas fleet is still the White-legged Falcon with a small bomb load.

Even though the two-seater model can control 8-12 unmanned combat aircraft, it cannot make up for the weak vacancies in the carrier-based aircraft formation. When fighting against the attacker carrier-based aircraft released by the Reaper mothership, the scientific research department understood the official status of Phantom III. Installation is imminent.

The Phantom III has a tilted missile launch chamber that can accommodate 3,600 rounds of various Gauss machine shells. If you include the composite pylons on both sides of the wings, it is a veritable "space truck", enough to assist the ship. Perform battles of varying intensities.

Shortly after.

The earth "behind" this flight formation is getting farther and farther away. Although it is not as large as the Reaper mothership, the space city, which is also an iconic facility, is very close at hand.

After a while, the flight formation entered the military docking port of the space station.

And here, you can also see a Fidus-class frigate and two Selune-class transport ships that have completed maintenance and repairs and are currently undergoing the final deployment of combatants.

Adjust angle and speed.

The Luna transport boat arrived at the designated parking spot first and was then completely fixed by the robotic arm.

The two Phantom IIIs came to the belly of the Fiddes-class ship, passed through the large air pressure chamber that unfolded the gate, and entered the Fiddes-class hangar one after another.

Then, a corridor extended from the side wall and connected with the tail of the Luna transport boat.

Qi——!

Gas leakage was visible to the naked eye, but after the bridge was fixed, the internal air pressure stabilized, allowing the passengers inside to safely exit the cabin.

——

Inside the covered bridge;

They put on their respective power armors, hung the weapons given to them by their father on their waists, or attached them to the three Primarchs on their backs, and headed to the main body of the space city where the space was more spacious.

"."

Hera, who was in a complicated mood, followed behind them.

She had indeed been secretly observing Atlas for nearly twenty years, and she also knew that Atlas had frequent activities in Ghana and Cote d'Ivoire in West Africa in the early 1990s. In the middle and late stages, Atlas had completely shifted the company's focus to Ghana. Accra.

But Hera has no way or means of infiltration to study what Atlas is doing at close range.

Who would have thought that in the primeval forest of Komoai in Cote d'Ivoire, there would be a ruin that leads to other universes? !

As for Sui Yang, whom she wanted to meet and ask for help, he was not in the current universe.

The true appearance of Atlas truly exceeded all Hera's expectations.

Fortunately, the "Queen of Heaven", who is more than 20,000 years old, quickly digested these facts and accompanied the three primarchs to the space city, and then prepared to transfer to the Fidus class and rush to Mars.

The reason for her complicated mood was not that she was in a state of shock, but that she was thinking about how to deal with the fallen Zeus and the Greek gods.

now.

The group of them walked out of the covered bridge and arrived at the port of call preparation area that could be described as vast.

There are a large number of logistics personnel driving engineering mechas, aerospace vehicles carrying small supplies and repairing routine cruises, and orbital commandos undergoing daily training.

Without receiving the mobilization order, this group of orbital commandos naturally did not pay attention to what was happening in the outside world and just ran, fought and lifted iron in the training area.

However, at the entrance to the large covered bridge leading to the Fides level, a special force numbering a thousand people gathered.

?

Hera looked towards the entrance and found that the special force was wearing full-coverage individual equipment, and the shape of its armor and helmet gave her the look and feel of a medieval knight.

In addition, even if the "person" leading that special force wore the same type of individual equipment, it was difficult to conceal the curves of the opponent's figure.

More importantly, the "person" had her waist-length hair tied up, exposing her slightly pointed ears.

Elf?

Hera, who has been mixed in human society for many years, certainly knows the descriptions of elves in the fantasy literature created by humans.

After seeing the opponent's appearance clearly, she immediately analyzed that the members of that special force were humanoid species from other universes, and they had also reached some kind of consensus with Atlas.

The two sides approached.

With a quiet and elegant smile on his face, the "person" first spoke to Guilliman:

"Tinas Lothrian, it is an honor to cooperate with the eldest son of the Human Emperor for the first time to solve the corrupt forces raging in the main universe."

As he said that, the "man" looked at Sanguinius and Horus, who were standing on both sides of Guilliman, and bowed slightly to express friendship:

"I have often heard the Emperor mention his children, and now that I have seen them in person, they are indeed of extraordinary temperament."

"You are too polite, Queen Lothrian." Guilliman and his two brothers quickly responded with a humble expression that did not seem fake, saying:

"It should be our honor to cooperate with the Queen and the elves."

"Haha, well, let's talk more after we board the ship." The elven queen named Tinas ended the etiquette she started.

While turning to walk towards the corridor bridge, Tinas did not forget to nod to Hera who remained silent.

Next, Guilliman and his party and the elite elves from Terrala boarded the Fedes-class frigate on standby.

After confirming that all personnel had completed boarding, the ground crew in charge here operated the large corridor bridge to detach so that the warships could sail out of the docking port unimpeded.

Outside the main body of the space city, the Fedes-class and two Selune-class ships carrying Guilliman and others sailed out of the docking port one after another, and began to gradually accelerate after completely leaving the space city.

Then, these three ships joined the other three Selune-class ships that had been overhauled and prepared.

Then, the Atlas fleet, which had a total of six ships, further increased its speed and soon passed the moon, which was about 400,000 kilometers away from the earth.

At this time, in the bridge of the Fides-class ship with the words "Future" printed on both sides of the hull;

"Captain, coordinates locked, channel cleared, should the antimatter engine be activated?" The helmsman reported loudly.

Hearing this, the captain sitting in the main seat immediately turned sideways to look at the communications officer and ordered:

"Inform all ships to activate the antimatter engine together in fifteen seconds, target, Mars!"

"Yes!"
