  Chapter 6 Imperial Frontier: Imperial Space Station

  The tarmac of the space station was pitch black. All lights, landing lights, and even just the hatch lights were off. There was no sound at all, just a spine-chilling silence.

  Here is like a dark space beyond the emperor's holy star torch light, everything is shrouded in a kind of cold silence, everything is floating in this dead silence.

   But gradually, a little bit of light began to illuminate this dark world, from a little dim blue light, until it turned into a scorching beam that shone like the sun.

The Thunderhawk gunship slowly moved into the apron from the take-off exit, the vector jet spouted flames, all the darkness was lit by the flames, and the jets gradually moved down amidst the rumbling sound, slowly allowing the Thunderhawk to land on the apron. on the tarmac.

The hatch of the gunboat opened with a bang, and a huge figure stepped out, followed by a second one, four Deathwatch Astartes, all wearing the helmets of their own battle group, but all of them were painted black , Bright headlights shone from them, instantly clearing the rest of the night.

  Astartes cultivators held explosive bombs and melee weapons, surrounded Thunder’s deck, and Vito also came out from the cabin. He was wearing a closed helmet, and every step of the magnetic shoes drove a little bit of fluorescent lightning.

  The judge stepped down from Thunderhawk and looked around. It was obvious that the gravity system and life support system here had been disconnected or destroyed.

Vito nodded slightly to Ragnar. The Space Wolves held a chain saw ax and strode towards a half-covered internal entrance hatch. Ragnar directly tore open the door, flung the door behind him and floated, Striding into the corridor, the blue eye glass looked around.

   "Everything is safe, brothers." The communicator in his helmet said, and then took two steps inside, and the rest of the visitors followed his footsteps into it.

The space warriors walked in the corridor. They surrounded Vito in the middle, blocking all possible design positions like huge walls. They stepped heavily in the dead corridor of the space station. Except for the vibration of the iron boots, the rest There was no movement at all, and the place was dead silent as if it had been abandoned for a long time.

  Bell passed a sign with an announcement on the station, "It looks busy here, at least until we come."

"This kind of space station usually has hundreds of people. Even if it is attacked here, we should see at least one corpse." Lancelot pushed away a broken table in front of him. The fragments hit the wall lightly, and then slowly drifted towards other places.

   "I agree with him, Vito, there was obviously a firefight here." Ragnar said, turning his head and using the headlight to illuminate the wall on one side, there were clearly several bullet holes on it.

  Vito stopped, and so did the four space warriors. They stood behind and to the side of Vito, looking at the bullet holes on the wall with him.

"A solid shotgun, not a bomb." Lancelot quickly concluded, while Olaf tilted his head and looked towards the side of the corridor, "Someone is running and shooting here, maybe the guards are trying to fight back Intruders?" "If so, then they certainly don't mind dying with the enemy."

Ragnar's voice sounded from the other end, and everyone followed the sound and walked over. Before reaching the front, they saw the huge gap in the bulkhead. A big hole was torn open in the corridor of the entire space station, directly exposing the into the universe.

  Vito squatted down, gently brushed the debris on the bulkhead with his fingers, and looked at the powder on his fingers.

  "The rocket was fired hastily and very unwisely. I estimate that many people were not sucked into the universe and died, but were blown to death."

   "But we didn't see the corpse. Do you think the invaders took the corpse? Or did it on purpose?" Olaf said in surprise, "But what enemy would do this? A perverted **** man from the Dark Eldar?"

"No, those perverts like living people, not corpses." Ragnar said, patted the bulkhead with his palm, "And we didn't see any traces of the weapons of the Eldar, their fancy things are easy to leave traces .”

"You're right, Ragnar, not the Eldar." Vito stood up, but Olaf looked confused, "I can't think of any enemies, Judge, besides, what value is this space worth?" The intruders went to such lengths?"

   "I don't know, but I think we can find the answer in the command tower." Vito said, leading the way to the dark corridor, followed by the four space warriors.

It didn't take them much effort to find the command tower. All the space stations in the Empire are manufactured according to a template standard. Even if the external appearance is quite different, the internal structure is roughly the same. You probably already have a number.

  Vito and the four Deathwatch have been to many space stations, and many of them are not very pleasant. It takes a lot of time to shoot and chop people forward.

But it was much easier here. They arrived at the command tower smoothly. It was also empty here. The semi-curved giant glass wall was on the front side. The imperial golden eagle hung on the dome, and under the tall dome were countless Mechanical teaching instrument.

  Like many places in this space station, there are traces of conflict everywhere. Vito walked to the position of the space station station commander. There was a bullet hole on the back of the chair and dried blood on the leather chair.

   Not only that, but almost the entire operating platform was destroyed. The perpetrators used guns and blunt objects to roughly destroy the dial, and every instrument and divination instrument was destroyed.

   "Bell, check if there is any surviving data, I guess these idiots don't understand how the mechanism works." Vito just said it, but Bell has already started doing that.

He cut open a data terminal with the multitool on his arm, and pulled out a black hard drive after some fumbling, "Apparently, these idiots think that destroying the mechanical dial can destroy these, all heretics are a German sex."

"Wow, don't let the Mechanicus know, or those guys will explode again." Ragnar said with a smile, watching Bell plug the interface into the hard disk, the Ultramarines stood up, and checked the hard drive in the helmet. The data.

   "This space station detected an ominous sign a month ago. According to the data, there is a change in the stars beyond the distance that cannot be judged." "That kind of change?"

Vito asked, Bell was silent for a moment, and quickly gave an answer, "Some constellations have disappeared, or can no longer be observed, the technicians of the space station thought it was a subspace storm, and reported to the station master. "

   "Is there anything else?" "The station master agreed, and asked the astropath to send an alarm to the main star within a window of a few days, and then the record was disconnected."

  Vito frowned slightly, walked to the podium and looked down, every instrument was destroyed, "It seems that the intruders tried to prevent them from issuing a warning, and they succeeded."

   "Except for the request for help from the astropath, perhaps because of the subspace storm, it was actually received by us." Lancelot said as he rubbed the dashboard, but there was no response from that thing.

   "Guys, I think you will like this news." Bell said and walked towards the crowd, "A shuttle from the space station left the station. According to the last record, it should be after the firefight."

  Olaf took a step forward, "It means that this is a rebellion in the space station. The traitors slaughtered the entire space station, and the traitors have now fled in the shuttle."

   "But is it necessary for them to take away the corpse?" Lancelot asked, while Vito shook his head, "This question is not important for now, and we have no way of answering it."

"How do we find them?" Ragnar immediately asked, obviously impatient, Bell was silent for a moment, "The data shows that the fuel of the shuttle is very limited, and it seems that most of the fuel was taken by an Imperial Navy ship passing by here. The boat is gone, and the remaining shuttles are starved of fuel."

"Can you calculate their whereabouts?" Vito stepped forward and asked, Bell's white helmet nodded slightly, "According to the calculation, the maximum fuel of the shuttle is enough for the fugitives to reach the nearest imperial planet, the agricultural world Owen -4."

  Vito walked to the huge floor-to-ceiling glass, looked at the distant stars and then activated the communicator, "Cole, we have discovered, set the coordinates to Owen-4."

   Vito stopped talking, turned his head to look at the punctured station bench, "Don't let anyone find us."

   Quickly use the monthly ticket to summon the Emperor's Light, and the Astronomican will send the monthly ticket light to the edge of the empire
