Chapter 47 Imperial Frontier: The End Is Near
The churning sea of beasts permeates under the city walls. The towering city walls of the Hive City are solid and tenacious, and the void shield generators on its surface firmly reinforce the walls to block the turbulent Tyranid disasters outside.
The orbital weapons on the city wall fired non-stop firepower day and night, and the intensive artillery bombarded the entire land. Once upon a time when you stood on the city wall, you could see the boundless buildings outside, towering spiers and Gothic architecture, but all that has ceased to exist today.
The scarlet land extends to the end of the earth, covered with an ocean, an ocean composed of nightmare beasts, they hit the shield of the stand like a tide, giant war beasts constantly hit and bombarded the surface of the shield with biological cannons, The flickering light of the void shield continued to light up above Olaf's head.
The old wolf's gray beard and hair were illuminated by various lights. He looked at the billowing sea of flames under the city wall. Not far away, rows of automatic cannons that were assumed to be on the track of the city wall were firing continuously, and there were even land fortress guns with amazing calibers. Roaring thunderous fury.
But no matter how hard the imperial army put in and how many shells the workers of the Mechanicum produced, they couldn't destroy these beasts.
And beyond the Milky Way, beyond the shining of the Emperor's light, countless such swarm fleets are attacking, and these Tyranid tentacles that engulf the entire Milky Way are reaching out from the darkness everywhere, bringing the doomed destruction to the Milky Way. Come.
This is a desperate fact, anyone who hears this news, realizes the horror of the Tyranids will fall into despair and collapse, but the Astartes will not, they will not, they are the emperor's angels of death, they do not know What is fear.
"Is everything all right? Olaf." Bell stepped forward and asked, his armor was stained with a large amount of blood. Although it is not surprising as a pharmacist, Olaf knew that the blood on Bell's body was not a cure. caused by brothers.
The Ultramarine Pharmacist walked up to Olaf with his bolt gun, and together they looked down at the roaring beast tide below. Both of them stared at the gray-red frenzy, watching the roaring and screaming Tyranid beasts .
"Whenever I think of my brother, the enemy who besieged the empire, I can't help but feel suspicious for our fellow humans." Olaf said, his gray beard fluttering slightly in the hot wind, "The galaxy is extremely dangerous, ten thousand Years have passed and we are still standing on the front line against the Emperor's great enemy, but it seems that tranquility and peace have never come, and there is only eternal war and destruction in the galaxy."
"Maybe, brother, but human civilization has never been truly peaceful. Since the origin of our species in ancient Terra, we have been closely related to war."
Bell took off his helmet, and I have to say that he is actually quite handsome, with a delicate face with bumps and convexes, a proper son of Macragge.
"We fight each other and foreign enemies, but human civilization develops and grows in the war. We have come this way for tens of thousands of years."
"Indeed, my brother Glory." Captain Mikael came in front of the two with his Centurion helmet between his hands, and behind him were Lancelot and Ragnar who had just returned from the bloodbath.
"Although there are wars all over the galaxy, and death and destruction seem to be everywhere, there is not only destruction and killing in the galaxy. recover, and the entire Greater Ultramar sector thrives."
Captain Mikael looked at the gray-red frenzy. He raised his iron arm and pointed to the end of the earth and the distant space. Our suffering and war are the guarantee of their development."
"Civilization, art and reason still exist in the empire. Its germs are tenacious. Although it is still fragile today, I believe it will still thrive and one day allow mankind to achieve what the emperor expects us to achieve. realm."
"It is precisely because of this that we, the Emperor's iron guards, will fight forever in worlds without doubting or worrying my fighting brothers. It is precisely because of our fighting and sacrifice that the spark of hope Still continue in the empire, let it develop and burn in thousands of worlds that are still peaceful today."
Mikael's voice is resounding, like a erudite old scholar. As the company commander of the Ultramarines, he is obviously well-read and accomplished in various fields. Unlike other battlegroups, the Ultramarines attach great importance to Because of such spiritual connotation, although obviously not everyone likes this style.
Ragnar growled impatiently, and he swung the chainsword he had found temporarily, "I hate such polite things the most, we just need to know what the All-Father wants, and also ask us to fight thousands of enemies. gone."
"But we must not forget the purpose of our battle, and why we exist." Bell said solemnly, he raised his arms, "It is precisely because some brothers have forgotten our purpose, and what the Emperor really wants from us, That will lead to rebellion and betrayal."
"We must not forget that our superhuman bodies are sworn to dedicate everything to the great cause of the Emperor, and what the Emperor requires has never changed. It is to seek the well-being of mankind as a whole. You should not forget this, Ragnar."
"Okay, Bell, don't go online, where do you get that?" Ragnar walked up with a smile, took off his helmet and hugged the shoulders of his combat brothers, but it was still the knowledgeable Mi who answered him. Captain Kyle.
"If I remember correctly, this famous saying of truth is taken from the great dragon lord Vulkan Vulcan." "Yes, Captain, as the Emperor's Son said."
Olaf, who is also from the wolf group, but much calmer, nodded affirmatively. He looked at his battle brother approvingly, but Ragnar scratched his head boredly, "Ah, I don't understand you, I'll just cut the enemy Let you think about it."
Before Ragnar finished speaking, something whizzed down from the sky, and the thing slammed heavily on the street behind the city wall. Several Astartes walked to the side of the city wall to look at the thing.
Several Planetary Defense Force soldiers who were resting on the ground also walked up hesitantly with their guns in hand. Two of them stood on the edge of the big pit and looked in. Then they raised their laser guns and shouted in horror. Then shoot down.
Almost instantly, the two of them were torn into pieces by dozens of Tyranid beasts. A dozen Tyranid beasts crawled out of the pit, and almost immediately, countless airborne fungi sacs fell to the ground from the air, countless The Tyranid war beasts tore and bitten out of their wriggling landing fields, like newborn babies one by one.
But these newborns started killing wildly almost immediately, countless Tyranid creatures swept the entire street near the inner wall, and countless gunshots and screams immediately swept across the city.
Bell raised his head in amazement and looked at the sky above his head. In the dark cloud-covered atmosphere, the flaming fungus sac landing pods whizzed down one by one, hitting the Hive City like a meteor.
Although the anti-aircraft guns are still firing fiercely, they can't stop their huge numbers at all, and this is enough to prove what is happening now.
"The space battle has been lost! The swarm has begun to increase its deployment!" Bell immediately got the answer, but now this is not a question that Captain Camille needs to consider.
The company commander put on the centurion helmet and activated the communicator, "I am the company commander Kemil, all Astartes and mortal warriors obey the order, abandon the city wall and outer positions and retreat to the inner city! Quick!"
After receiving a burst of affirmative answers, the company commander nodded affirmatively to the brothers, and they immediately moved along the city wall. Fungus sacs whizzed down from both sides of the city wall, and the wriggling tentacles and huge physique smashed a building. A building, some even hit the city wall directly.
Tyranid creatures came out of the fungal sac, slaughtering all non-Tyranic creatures on the city wall, and the four Astartes rushed all the way through the corridor on one side of the city wall to the elevator.
The surviving mortal soldiers also joined their ranks. They arrived at the ground in the elevator with only flashing red light. When the door of the orbital elevator opened, they came to another purgatory.
The entire street was full of Tyranid beasts, they gnawed and tore the bones of mortals, screams and screams sounded one after another, and almost immediately the Tyranid beasts noticed a group of people in the elevator.
Camille took the lead in raising the bolt pistol and opened fire quickly. The bolt instantly shattered the head of the first Tyrann. Astartes and the mortals immediately started firing. The swift firepower splashed on the beasts, almost instantly killing them. Dozens of beasts were killed on the spot, but at the other end of the street hundreds of Tyranid beasts were galloping, destroying and destroying everything they saw along the way, leaving only death and blood on the ground.
"Go! Go forward!" The company commander roared and fired continuously, drawing out his power sword and leading the way to break through. The champion swordsman's sharp long blade danced among the Tyranid beasts, beheading each one to the ground.
Everyone followed closely behind the company commander. Ragnar and Lancelot charged forward, and together with the company commander opened the way forward with chainswords and power swords. The mortal guards followed closely behind them and shot around, no? Some people were hit and fell to the ground by the flesh-eating beetles, and some were pushed down and dismembered by the knife insects that suddenly appeared.
But they are still advancing, and from time to time, fighters from all corners join this breakout team. Soldiers from Vostonia, Valhalla and the local guards filled the entire team, and gray green and scarlet became the dominant team. color.
At the front and both sides of the line, the Astartes of various battle groups who came in response to Camille's call advanced on iron feet, bolters and chainswords roared, and the Emperor's Angel of Death was leading the army with high efficiency. Mortals stand out from the encirclement.
The streets were full of Tyranid beasts that fell from the sky. They attacked the living creatures on the entire street. Residents and soldiers were **** massacred and swallowed. spread.
In the coffee shop on the side of the street, a large group of refugees who fled in hastily screamed and watched the Tyranid beasts trying to break in outside the door. Their sickle claws pierced the door panel, biting and pulling the survivors trying to eat them them.
Several relatively strong men blocked the gate with all their strength, but their strength was no advantage compared to the Tyranid beasts. The gate was constantly being pushed by impacts, and the terrifying monster stuck its head in, roaring with **** mouths and sending countless Saliva splashed on the ground.
The women screamed and looked at the monster, but just as the door was about to be knocked open, the monster was dragged out by something, and fell into silence after a scream.
The door was suddenly pushed open, and the men blocking the door were pushed to the ground in response. The people in the room looked at the giant standing at the door, and he held a **** chainsword and looked at everyone in the room.
"Why are you still standing there? Let's go!" the black-armored warrior grabbed the chainsaw sword and chopped down another Tyrannosaurus. He beckoned the people in the room to get out, and everyone stood up scrambling. The giants passed by, and when they recognized an Astartes, their doubts ceased.
The refugee team joined the breakout army. These screaming refugees were severely slowed down in the procession. Lancelot cursed and turned around and raised his bolt gun to shoot down the Tyranids chasing after them. group.
"Ragnar! You will kill everyone if you bring these refugees to join us!" "I must save them! I cannot tolerate abandoning the people of the empire!" "Can you **** prioritize?! This is Is it time to carry forward the emperor's fraternity spirit?!" "I think that's what the fuck!"
"Okay! Be quiet!" Olaf snapped, and a psychic shock wave knocked several Tyranid beasts into the air. They crashed into the ruins of the city, and were immediately engulfed by countless bricks and tiles.
"Cover, refugees and mortals retreat to the inner city gate! Form a defense line!" The old wolf in the armor of the tall priest shouted, and Captain Mikael also stopped abruptly. He looked at the slowly opening nest not far away. They were not far from the gate of the second city wall in the inner city.
"Everyone! Organize the defense line! Immediately!" The moment the company commander gave the order, more than a dozen Astartes around him immediately joined the battle. They stood shoulder to shoulder behind the mortals and blocked the biological bullets with their bodies.
The carnivorous insects gnawed on the armor, but could not leave any traces on the solid carapace. The Astartes raised their bolters and fired a volley, and a storm of barrages rushed towards the swarm.
Flesh exploded in the street, splashing flesh and blood all over the wall, but suddenly a green plasma plasma shot from across the street, and the plasma hit an Adeptus Astartes, his The armor was burned and corroded by the plasma, and its flesh and blood also dissolved and collapsed in a very short time.
Olaf saw the giant Tyranid beast holding a biological cannon at the end of the street. It roared and raised its muzzle, and countless big and small Tyranids rushed from its side to the city gate.
"The mortals are not yet evacuated! We must hold our ground!" Ragnar yelled, but Lancelot cursed loudly as another brother was disintegrated by the plasma hit.
"We must save the lives of our brothers! We are the swords of the Emperor, not to be broken here!" "We must not abandon our mortal subjects!" "Be reasonable, Ragnar! Their lives are worth as much as ours !" "You fart!"
The two Astartes scolded loudly, their quarrel echoing on the communicator inside the helmet, which was not a good thing in the current situation.
The tall angel statue fell to the ground in the flames of war, and the colossal angel statue in golden armor hit the side of the street, and violent dust and ashes filled the air, blocking everyone's sight.
Thick fog filled the dark street, and everyone breathlessly aimed their bolt guns at the other end of the street, listening to the dense sound of small footsteps in their helmets, listening to the crackling of Tyranid bones The echo of the structure.
Plasma was not coming, but the cold situation pierced into everyone's bridal chamber like a dagger. Even the two cats and dogs stopped and held their breath to aim at the invisible enemy in the thick fog.
The sounds of those monsters were getting closer and closer, and all the Astartes firmly pulled the triggers, but suddenly a scarlet dense beam shot from above their heads, and the beam pierced through them instantly. From the dense fog, countless screams and screams came out, and a shattered Tyrann body fell in front of Lancelot.
Everyone looked back and saw the huge figure.
"I am his sharp blade, I am his magic soldier." The ancient voice said, suddenly everyone looked up to see a flickering ion beam across the street, and after a scream, the sound of a huge object falling to the ground came from a thick Fog came from the other side.
"I'm Derantius! I'm his angel!" The dreadnought smashed the crystalline road on the ground, and the tall dreadnought walked between the crowd. All the deadly firepower on his body began to roar at the same time, and the plasma Cannons, laser cannons, autocannons and cellular missile pods all happen.
The destructive firepower exploded all over the street, the exquisite street lamps and shops were destroyed and collapsed, and the Tyranid beasts on the black street were also blown to pieces.
The Dreadnought raised its right arm and sprayed out a jet of hot molten flame. The Tyranids closest to him were all screaming and being dissolved and collapsed, but there were still a few Tyranids who jumped behind the Dreadnought and tried to cut open the holy coffin with razor claws.
But the fearless mech raised its mechanical hand, grabbed them down and smashed them to the ground, and then crushed them with one foot. The tall giant started killing among the herd of beasts and abruptly cut off the charging herd.
"Retreat! Brother, retreat!" said the fearless voice, and after the stormy firepower, the monks Astartes quickly retreated into the inner city behind the exquisite gates that were almost works of art.
"Derantius! Withdraw to the city!" Mikael yelled at Dreadnought. The Dreadnought started here and smashed the skull of a Tyranid beast, but the Dreadnought did not withdraw but continued to go crazy slaughtered the Tyranid herds.
"Derantius! Withdraw to the city!" Mikael said sharply here, but Dreadnought still didn't respond. Its destructive weapons destroyed everything, but Mikael was sure that the fearless veteran could not hear his voice .
"Derantius, now is not the time for you to die with honor! Your battle is not over! The Emperor's Enemy is not yet dead!" "I will destroy the Emperor's Enemy." Fearless said here and struck out, The Lightning Fist shattered an entire group of Tyranid soldiers.
"The Emperor needs you to live. Only in this way can you fulfill your obligations. Now obey orders my brother." Mikael said, after a moment of silence, the Dreadnought began to retreat slowly, and he fired violently as he retreated .
The Astartes and mortals at the city gate also began to shoot fiercely to cover the fearless retreat. Dozens of guard soldiers pulled up a dual-mounted laser cannon. After they assumed it was done, the shooter immediately jumped into his seat and started shooting. .
The storm-like firepower was superimposed on Wuwei's firepower, and almost instantly shattered the Tyranids in the entire street. In this moment, Wuwei walked into the city gate, and the huge solid city gate also responded. Completely closed.
Olaf and Bell raised their heads, and they looked at the sky between the tall buildings above their heads. There was no fungal sac falling down here. Obviously, the anti-aircraft firepower here can still cope with the current situation.
"It's the last moment." Olaf said, they still had no way out, and Bell nodded affirmatively, "Yes, I hope Vito can find a way."
Before Bell finished speaking, Vito's voice came from the communicator.
"If the four of you are still alive, come to the headquarters to look for me, as does Captain Mikael." "You have a solution?" Olaf asked anxiously, "Maybe, but it's not a good idea."
"Ha, when did you ever have a good idea?" Ragnar said sarcastically, and Vito's voice smiled, "That's right."
His voice hung up, and several Astartes looked at each other, and looked around at the desperate mortals and soldiers around them. The five giants and the dreadnought walked towards the administrative hall in the center of the city.
The final destiny of this planet is at hand.
