"Go directly to meet them. For the Emperor's sake, I believe they will be happy to give us, the battle brothers who are almost counting the bombs to live, a little 'insignificant' support."
——————————————The dividing line between the Hammer guys——————————————————————
"Wolf Group?"
“We actually encountered a wolf group?”
"Seeing that their emblem is that of the Blackmane Company, Ragnar has taken the throne?"
"Then this time is a little later - but Master Thirteen should not have gotten up yet."
Looking at the Space Wolves Space Marines who appeared from a distance and walked towards their group without any concealment, the Hammer guys easily identified the Wolf Company these Wolf men belonged to - after all, Blackmane, the legendary figure of the Wolf Company known as the 'Young Wolf Lord', his company emblem was really... simple and crude!
“Who will receive them?”
"It must be the U group who will be the receptionist. Go, it's your turn to show off. Go!"
"learn!"
The Hammer known as Gu quickly got into the state, entering the advent mode to control his conscious advent body - the Ultramarines sergeant in the red helmet, and walked out of the camp gate with several Ultramarines chess pieces to greet the visiting Astartes. Soon, the two met about 500 meters away from the camp.
"Space Wolves, Black Mane Company, Galliwolves, Grey Hunters."
Gary gave his name and affiliation, took off his helmet, and extended his hand.
"Ultramarines, 6th Company, Sergeant Ancient."
Seeing Gary's actions, Gu, who had also taken off his helmet, also stretched out his hand and greeted him as a warrior. This action undoubtedly made Gary relax. He patted Gu's descended body's shoulder vigorously and moved his head closer to Gu's face.
"Brother, inform your commander and tell him I want to meet with him. In some ways, the situation in this galaxy is already dire."
3. The wild wolf that came into contact with the hammer guys
——————The battle barge’s bridge is still in operation——————————
Here is an Iron Hands Captain and his guards.
Here is an Imperial Fists Captain and his guards.
The ancient soldier who brought him to meet these two extreme warriors was actually also a member of this command center, which surprised Gary a little.
Then, a Raven Guard who surprised Gary even more, who he didn't notice at first, emerged from the shadows like a ghost after he sat down. Moreover, the scarred and slightly old-fashioned power armor worn by this Raven Guard and the five service spikes on his forehead clearly told the Grey Hunter that this Raven Guard was a veteran who had fought for the Empire for at least five hundred years!
At last……
"Alien?"
Looking at a creature that logically shouldn't be in this meeting room where five Astartes startups gathered, Gary grinned at it in a playful tone, slightly showing his fangs as if in protest - other than that, Gary did not make any further provocative moves. After all, he knew clearly that the Eldar thing that could stand so carefree in the meeting room of four startups and not be killed must have special value to the Empire...
"The first act has been successfully unveiled. Fate has changed from inevitability to a mirror image. However, shadow and reality are twins."
"..."
To Gali's surprise, the Eldar wearing a tall ornament with even taller bird wings on top did not get angry at his provocation. Instead, after looking him up and down for a few seconds, he turned around and spoke a few words in the Empire's High Gothic. The intonation of his words was probably so good that even the bureaucrats who specialized in social etiquette would be ashamed of themselves. But the meaning...
I can only say it's incomprehensible!
"You have initially demonstrated your sincerity... Liang, but according to calculations, we still have not reached the stage of 'perfect' cooperation."
Before Gary could open his mouth to complain about what the hell this alien was talking about, the Iron Hands Captain, who was controlled by the political commissar and was standing in the main seat, responded to the words of the Eldar prophet controlled by Liang Feifan first, and took Gary's words to heart.
"In the starlight, the torrent of disaster has arrived, but the ancient shadows will lead the way, and all that remains is lifeless."
However, as if he hadn't heard anything at all, the Eldar prophet continued to say a bunch of meaningless things. Moreover, he activated his psychic power and drew some meaningless balls of thread in the air with his fingers. All of this made Gary feel that his muscles were tense. He wanted to grab the alien thing and shake it hard, and yell -
"speak English!"
"In your opinion, what impact do the changes outside the starlight have on the future we are about to face?"
Just when Gary was feeling uncomfortable, the ancient soldier who brought him in spoke.
"It will block out the glint and make the shadows darker."
"Then this matter is beneficial to you, but I want to ask the Empire. This is the basis of our cooperation."
"Fate is one, until the end."
"Okay, I hope you didn't use ambiguity or something to fool us, otherwise, we will be happy to send your fate into the 'mirror'."
In the bewildered expression on Gary's face, the ancient soldier said something a bit strange. What shocked him even more was that the Eldar alien who had always been indifferent to everyone actually nodded slightly! After seeing this scene, Gary felt that one of the questions in his heart had been answered.
"I think... I know why he is in this headquarters..."
——————————————The dividing line between the Hammer guys————————————————————
"Huh - I almost died of nervousness."
On the Queen of Glory, Liang Feifan, who had stopped controlling the Eldar Prophet and gave it a 'stand still' order, raised his hand and wiped the non-existent sweat on his forehead with the back of his hand. When he was pretending to be a riddle man just now, he had been paying attention to the man from the Wolf Group, ready to use non-injurious psychic power to counterattack him if he suddenly attacked in order to avoid causing some unnecessary problems - but for now, it seems that everything is OK.
"I told you not to be so nervous. Don't be fooled by the fact that the Wolf Group is a group of carefree men. They are actually very careful. Think about what their Primarch said to Lorgar. Isn't it a typical example of rough words but true meaning?"
Next to Liang Feifan, about five minutes after Liang Feifan finished asking the riddle, the political commissar who temporarily stopped controlling the Iron Hand company commander shrugged his shoulders, indicating that they were still in the planning stage.
"That's true. By the way, is it okay to just leave it to Gu to handle it alone?"
"It's not a big problem. The intelligence handover procedure has just been completed. Gu is preparing to take the wolf group to get some weapons and supplies."
"Then Brother Wolf Group, don't you want to stay and discuss any battle plans?"
"No, he probably felt the atmosphere was a bit repulsive, right? Our group of chess pieces are completely silent. To be honest, any uninformed person who walked in would just feel that they were not allowed to approach us. So when the wolf group elder saw that the 'atmosphere' was not right, he took the initiative to mention the supply issue."
"...Don't mention it. If this problem is not solved in the future, it will be easy to be exposed when we cooperate with the imperial forces on a larger scale, right?"
"I'll leave this question to Big E. Right now, I'm more interested in how Gu feels about using his advent body. After all, I'll have to try my own advent body in a few days."
"Looking at his expression, he must be having a good ."
————————————————Gary’s dividing line————————————————————
"Look east, you wolf cubs! See what I got back for you?"
Since only Gary was allowed to meet the "commanders", the other Space Wolves he led could only wait outside the camp. Just when the Fenris men were bored enough to start digging holes in the ground, the roar of a high-power engine mixed with Gary's voice suddenly sounded in the communicator. Hearing their captain's voice, the Space Wolves collectively looked up in the direction Gary said, and then one by one...
OAO!
"Old Wolf, you didn't just rob their warehouse and steal their rhinoceros, did you? Although we are a little short of supplies now, it's not that serious..."
Staring at the Rhino coming towards them from a distance, which was obviously modified into a battlefield supply transport vehicle, and recalling Gary's tone just now, he could almost imagine what was going on inside the vehicle. Dur, who was originally fearless, couldn't help but tremble in his voice - although, as a startup group, they knew that the startup group had always had ample supplies, but... this was a galaxy caught in the middle of a subspace storm and surrounded by a bunch of traitors. God knows when it will be able to restore contact with the outside world!
"What are you talking about? These are what we should get. By the way, wolf cubs, in the future battles, unless their captain tells you to, don't do anything to the...well, Eldar aliens that roam near us. Just pretend you don't see them!"
"Forehead?"
"I don't know the details, but there is no doubt that their arrival in this world is related to the prophecies of the Eldar. Moreover, it seems that the Eldar aliens have provided intelligence that may be beneficial to the Empire!"
"I see. Hush money, huh?"
Although they had subtly misunderstood some things, Dur and the other Space Wolves suddenly felt justified, and even wondered if Gary had taken a little too little.
4. The Tyranid Swarm Ready to Attack
The Lord of Castle Maldiush hasn't had a good sleep for a long time.
Ever since the huge Warp Storm cut off the Warp route between the Empire and the Mortonhess System, Castle Master Maldius realized that his three armored regiments had fallen into a terrible situation where it was difficult to obtain supplies, difficult to enter space, and even more difficult to launch a counterattack against the traitors. Originally, according to the plan, his three Cadian armored regiments and the nine Krieg Death Regiments that cooperated with them and the respected Space Wolves Astartes Brothers were tasked to serve as the vanguard of this suppression operation, to ensure
Ensure that Sosekhi, which is closest to the outer edge of the galaxy, does not break away from the control of the Empire, and build defense lines, supply stations and other facilities here - but now?
Because of the raging subspace storm, they lost the subsequent support of the Imperial Navy and the subsequent large-scale Astra Militarum forces, and have been firmly "trapped" on the surface of this planet!
Even though everything seems calm now, Castle Lord Maldiush knows that even if he doesn't consider the issue of the greenskins, those who betrayed the Empire will not let them stay safely on Sosekhi, and will definitely launch a general attack on them before the warp storm dissipates. In the absence of control over the universe, whether it is his troops, Krieg's troops, or even the Astartes monks, they are blind in a sense and can only passively wait for the enemy's attack. This feeling... is terrible beyond compare!
Therefore, when the Space Wolves' Astartes, who had learned about the situation of the two ships that had landed in Sossiki, drove a Rhino transporter filled with supplies for the Astartes, brought a regiment of Krieg Death Troopers, and an engineer of the Mechanicum back to their simple joint camp, Lord Maldius put down everything on his hands without hesitation, and went to meet the engineer of the Mechanicum with his own soldiers - soon, several good news made Lord Maldius show a long-lost smile on his face.
The Mechanicus came to the Mortonhess system well prepared! In addition to their Skitarii, there was also a 51st Regiment of the Astra Militarum, armed with resources from the Mechanicus and armored to the teeth!
More than two hundred Astartes monks have also come to this world! They are also well-equipped!
Uh...it seems that some Eldar alien creatures have followed here. However, since the Astartes choose to believe those damn things, it is not a big problem to treat them as allies for the time being.
In addition, the weakening of the warp storm has been confirmed. According to the engineer of the Mechanicus, the warp storm surrounding the Morton Hess system will subside in three years at most. In other words, in the worst case, Sosekhi will only have to hold out for three years!
"I will go and meet with Bishop Egger as soon as possible, as he requested."
After telling him a series of information, the engineer, just as the Lord of Maldiush Castle had expected, issued a recruitment for him and his troops. The Lord of Maldiush Castle, who had been waiting for this request, quickly nodded in agreement and immediately ordered his guards to prepare transportation. His decisiveness stunned the egg who was currently controlling the engineer's chess piece.
"Is he afraid that we won't call him?"
"Nonsense! Excluding the fact that the Bishop-level Oil Man has a very high authority, being employed by the Oil Man means that the equipment supply is guaranteed. The direct result of your bragging about the political commissar's troops just now is that this castle lord brother named Maldiush is already looking at your Oil Man as if he were a rich man!"
"...Okay, anyway, I'll have my pawns prepare some weapons and equipment for these Cadia guys, and then provide them with maintenance services?"
"Well, but I feel that the most important thing for your pawns in the next period of time is to solve the problem of how to transport troops from this planet to the universe. In particular, it is most important to pretend that the ship lent to us by Big E can be repaired to be able to take off in one go. Speaking of the universe, Abathur! Silence! Are there any problems with those space stations?"
"Everything is problematic. I'm moving over to take the nearest space station. Silence plans to go further to see if there's anything worse. By the way, regarding the space station, do you want it intact or do you want me to solve the problem quickly?"
"Let's find something that's in good condition. I don't think we can get to space for a while. Oh, and one more thing! Is there a ship hanging outside the space station you want to go to? If there is, make sure it's not damaged or let the traitors drive it away!"
"Yes, yes, yes - I will definitely not let those traitors take the ship away. You have to believe in the speed and efficiency of the Tyranids."
Commanding a large army of Tyranids, Abathur was slowly and covertly approaching a space station in the asteroid belt that looked like it was collecting minerals from the asteroid belt. He was using the swarm's observation to closely monitor the station, whose shell had been painted with a blasphemous symbol. He gave a thumbs up to show the other Hammers that he was sure there was no problem, and then, he successfully earned a few rolls of the eyes.
"You'd better be careful and give clearer orders. After all, the reduced efficiency of commanding non-imperial units is no joke. If you're not careful, the chess pieces will use their 'own ideas' to solve the problem!"
"It's not a big problem. I told them to walk obediently. Although the losses will definitely increase, well..."
Abathur's lips curled into a smile.
"Tyron, are you afraid of losses?"
5. Tyrannosaurus - Precursor
—————————Morton Hess System, Asteroid Belt, Mining Space Station No. 1——————————————
The room was small, the light was dim, the air was turbid, the noise was rumbling, and the seats were hard and completely incompatible with the human body curves.
But for Lika, these are not a problem at all. In fact, Lika, who has lived in this space station for 20 years, looks forward to the day every year when he serves as the director of the small room on the edge of the space station.
This day of sentinel - because at this time, his annoying boss will never bother him, let alone care about what he carries with him. So, when this day comes, Lika always sneaks in with his collection of wine, and then drinks in this small room until he is drunk - as for the risks of doing so?
Are you kidding! Are the autonomous sentry towers outside just for show? Even if the space station was attacked, Lika guaranteed that he could sound the alarm even though he was drunk - it only took pressing a red button, and it wasn't a complicated operation!
"Hey, it's time to enjoy yourself."
Just like before, after entering the small room and making sure that the door was locked and that there were no problems with the airtightness and alarm system of the room, Lika immediately and carefully took out the kettle filled with the good wine he had specially prepared for this day and poured it into his mouth. At the same time, he began to look forward to the "energetic" feeling after drinking the wine.
However......
"Gulp...Gulp...Hey, bah bah bah! My wine was replaced?"
As soon as the wine flowed into his throat, Lika felt something was wrong - the wine in his mouth tasted like sewage, and it was the kind that had been fermented for several days! This bad feeling made Lika immediately bend over, and regardless of whether it would cause damage to the circuit or other things, he vomited the wine on the spot, and then observed the wine in the kettle under the light in the room - to his surprise, the wine was normal.
"The color is fine, the smell is fine, why does it taste so bad when I drink it?"
After carefully observing and smelling the wine in the kettle, Lika, who was full of doubts, finally recalled one thing - the ruler of this space station, Mr. Li Meng, had previously erased the mark on the space station and announced to the entire space station that they would leave the empire and join a more qualified force that would make the space station better. He had "held a banquet" in the space station, and the food he was given at that time included a small glass of wine, and the taste of that glass of wine...
This is the best tasting wine I have ever tasted in my life!
".....Maybe I should find a way to get that kind of wine...Well, I remember Mr. Li Meng said that as long as you kill the soldiers of the empire, you will get a reward. Maybe I can drink that kind of wine?"
After taking two more sips of the wine in the kettle, Lika still felt that the taste was terrible. He closed the kettle lid in frustration and put it aside. At the same time, he made up his mind to do something big later to get a reward from Mr. Li Meng. However, just as he was fantasizing and completing this series of actions, a violent tremor suddenly swept through the whole room - the vibration was so violent that it even flipped the cup he had just placed off the table!
"????"
For a moment, Lika thought that there was something wrong with some equipment in his room, but the next moment, Lika saw the source of the vibration.
A huge, fleshy tentacle that was thicker than an adult's body, a tentacle that had already torn open the outer wall of the space station area where he was, and a tentacle that was attacking him, wanting to crush him and the room together!
"save......"
The unspoken words were forever sealed in Lika's throat.
————————————————Tyranid Swarm Landing——————————————————
“Woo—woo—woo—woo—”
The shrill alarm sounded throughout the entire space station, awakening the defense mechanism of this old space station and also waking up everyone inside the space station. For a moment, the entire space station was in chaos, and people were running around like headless flies.
"You pigs! Close the doors to areas A3-A5 immediately! The door to area B2 is malfunctioning? Then close C5!"
The technicians in charge of controlling the equipment in various areas of the space station were operating in a panic under the scolding of their superiors, making various defense gates fall one after another, so as to make the passages in the space station form a favorable appearance for the defenders. However, due to the long-term disrepair of many areas of the space station, some gate mechanisms have long been rusted or disabled. Therefore, even if some technicians tried their best, the defense gates in the areas they were responsible for remained motionless.
"Asshole! Get out of here! Now is the time for you to repay Mr. Li Meng's generosity! What? Afraid? Then I'll shoot you right now!"
The commander of the space station's defense force cursed and whipped the lazy and cowardly guys under his command one by one with whips or worse means, forcing them to pick up a variety of weapons, form crooked and disorderly teams, and roll to various areas to build defenses, while they themselves retreated to the safest upper area of the space station without hesitation, under the euphemism of "protecting the boss."
However, what these smart guys who thought they could easily save their lives in the upper area didn't know was that their boss, Mr. Li Meng, had already boarded the shuttle and was preparing to escape from the space station. In fact, at the first sight of the invader's appearance, Li Meng, who had a little knowledge, knew what the intruder was.
——That was an existence that he would never have imagined would appear in the Morton Hess galaxy even in his nightmares. It was the Tyranid swarm that caused the destruction of countless worlds!
