Emperor's Bane

Chapter 59 The Truth
"You're confused, aren't you?"

"Of course you would be confused."

"When things have developed to this point, most people can't figure out the truth. After all, there are too many constraints in reality: whether it is the limitation of vision, or the fragmentation of important information, or even The procrastination and extremely boring see-saw on Star [-] are all blurring our thinking, distracting our energy, and making us irritable and restless."

"Now, let's make things a little easier."

"Before you accept certain necessary small steps, as a reward for fighting bravely as friendly forces, you can of course know: what happened before this, and what will happen after this."

"In fact, to put it bluntly, what happened in the Sabis galaxy is very simple."

"A bait, a show of weakness, and a trap."

"It's that simple."

"Even, you will find that all the clues and details, as well as the necessary steps, you actually knew a long time ago, but in the endless procrastination and fighting in reality, they were forgotten, because they saw It seems so small, so insignificant."

"And now, let's talk about it one by one."

------

The relic battleship [Tears of Reason] passed through countless malfunctioning void war engines. It was like a swaying steel swan, flying gracefully in the dead storm.

This weird battleship does not belong to any classification of the Empire of Mankind's navy, even the most experienced captain and admiral, it is impossible to recognize such a ship that completely violates the purpose of the Empire of Mankind's shipbuilding.

But this does not prevent it from being powerful and deadly. Maybe its name will never appear in those poems that record great achievements, and maybe its figure will never appear in those archived and sealed documents, but this cannot erase it at all. Strength and sharpness on the battlefield: Like its owner, the First Legion, it was born only for the cruelest victory and the most utter destruction.

This giant steel beast almost recklessly crossed Ran Dan's warship group, swaggering past in front of those more than ten kilometers long Ran Dan's creations, this extreme provocation attracted the craziest counterattack: almost every time it passed In seconds, tens of thousands of battleship guns aimed at this arrogant challenger, firing countless flames and shells, and countless electromagnetic rays and energy beams mixed in, like a whole rainstorm. Like pouring into a pond, the energy shield of [Tears of Reason] has ripples that cannot be counted every moment.

But until the battleships of the Dark Angel swaggered through the defensive lines of Randan warships one after another, and until the most powerful Randan battleships hit the gun barrels and kept smoking, the thin layer of [Tears of Reason] The thin void shield was still intact. Under the watchful eyes of hundreds of thousands of Randan soldiers, it covered more than 500 dark angels in the cabin all the way, and slammed into the battle moon that was still in a state of failure.

"Do you still remember who discovered the anomalies and treasures in the Sabis galaxy?"

"Yes, a mechanical bishop and his servants from Shana's manufacturing world, they discovered the huge fan of the Sabis galaxy, which is enough to pass through the Mandeville point of Randan's battle moon, and after he returned to Shana, But he died in battle very quickly, and his colleagues spent a lot of time fighting for his inheritance, which led to the empire not knowing that such a treasure was buried in the Sabis galaxy until a long time later..."

"That's what you know."

"But in fact... this is a lie, a false curtain that we have created to cover up the truth."

"[Lion] actually knew all this a long time ago, since the moment Shana's mechanical bishop returned to the foundry world, he knew it, but that stupid mechanical octopus refused to hand over more information, which is also true. It's not too surprising, after all, Shana has just surrendered to the empire, and there are a bunch of rebellious boys everywhere."

"Since he is unwilling to offer loyalty, we can only let loyalty go to him."

"After he died in battle, as expected, his fellow Mechanicians began to eagerly compete for his inheritance and documents, and this big move also attracted the spies Ran Dan buried in Shana's Forge World."

"As for the so-called inheritance competition, this is indeed the ugly gesture of those Mechanicists. We just used this farce as a cover to convince the spies controlled by Ran Dan's aliens to believe the message we sent."

"Through the vows of those spies and other small means, we successfully let the Randan Alien know that there is a Mandeville point in the Sabis galaxy that can pass through the battle moon, and there is an ancient star that goes directly to Shana. door, and in Randan’s view, we don’t know all of this, at least during those months when the Mechanicus fought for the inheritance, we [didn’t know].”

"So, as a matter of course, there will be a few mavericks and bold guys among Ran Dan's alien commanders, eager to seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to make a big deal, and since such a big gamble, they bring Naturally, the capital will not be less."

"So you see, real hunters never worry about whether their prey will appear, even if they are really hiding, using bait and deception to make them appear is also the most basic basic skill of a hunter."

[Get ready for the impact. 】

Stern voices rang in the ears of every crew member.

The gigantic figure of Ran Dan's Battle Moon finally completely appeared in front of their eyes. It was a genuine metal planet, about two circles larger than Luna (Moon), and like other Ran Dan warships, There are giant spikes and flails that are clearly visible even in the void, just like a cage in the void.

This profane weapon, which is incomparable to any void engine, is hidden in layers of defensive firepower nets composed of giant star fortresses and automatic firepower turrets, not to mention that it has a force comparable to an expeditionary fleet. Hundreds of Ran Dan [Overlord], tens of thousands of Ran Dan warriors and millions of flesh and blood monsters were stationed there.

But none of this can stop the progress of their mission, or rather, no one in the galaxy can stop the Dark Angels.

More than 500 veterans of the First Legion who came all the way from Terra stayed quietly in their positions, most of them were holding swords or guns [that did not exist] in the Imperial Army, and on the breastplate and shoulder armor There are so many honor badges and coats of arms that it is almost impossible to place them, most of the helmets are placed aside, the solemn faces are neither sad nor happy, or even touched, only the dripping sweat is the only moving object.

Some stared straight ahead, some closed their eyes tightly, and some just tried their swords again and again until every detail could be reflected.

And in this pitch-black solemnity, the few touches of silver belonging to the Second Legion are somewhat dazzling.

Their performance also varies.

As an ancient warrior and a Terran, Kairon's performance was no different from that of ordinary dark angels, while Salieri and Ajax were obviously a little panicked. I found myself searching my guts and couldn't recognize the weapons.

Hector's performance was even better. He seemed to be chewing something, his eyes kept sweeping over the silver figure in the distance, and his throat kept rolling, obviously not a normal swallowing action.

At the end of Hector's field of vision, Morgan witnessed the approaching battle moon, doing the same action as Hector: swallowing.

Whenever she looked at the dead planet, at the millions of living souls who were alive, safe, and free to eat at will; The hall where you can eat at will; and hidden in the deepest part, the ultimate treasure that is badly wounded, dying, but extremely sweet.

She had to swallow to suppress the constant stream of saliva in her mouth.

------

Ok.

thirsty.

"Then, the layout of [Lion] began."

"During the few Terran standard months when Ran Dan thought we had achieved nothing, the First Legion began to deploy on Sabis [-], and we successfully found the device that opened the star gate. At the same time, as a countermeasure to Ran Dan For the prevention of [Warmaster], we set up some temporary underground fortresses on Sabis [-] to store the hole cards against those Ran Dan [Warmaster]."

"The psychic nuclear bomb is one of them. Compared with other preparations, its power is actually not too strong."

"As for you, that [alpha], and even those from the Second Legion, you are actually a means of correspondence, as a bottle opener for activating these trump cards, we brought them to this galaxy, but after referring to After the actual situation, we chose the [alpha]."

"While these preparations are going on, everything on the surface is going on normally. We have dispatched a pure cannon fodder group to garrison here. Even the logistics department in charge of allocating materials thinks this is an ordinary dispatch."

"Everything is aimed at targeting the spies hidden in the empire after being controlled by Ran Dan's mind, and everything is aimed at letting Ran Dan's fleet get into this trap."

"For this, the price we paid is greater than you can imagine."

"Do you remember Azir? Oh, you should have forgotten him."

"Azir, and others, their deaths are so unremarkable among those ignorant, for example, in the mouth of that brat Zahariel, they died in an encounter, if I If memory serves me right, that brat and his company of Caliban are now dumped on Sabis [-] to clean up the battlefield."

"The real burden rests with the Terrans, doesn't it?"

"Having said that, whether it was Azir or everyone who died in the encounter with this Ran Dan fleet, they actually did it on purpose, even the 244th Cruise Fleet that lost contact, their actual command Those who are also our people.”

"Their deaths were short, shattered, but priceless. When the Randan people thought they devoured all the witnesses without bloodshed, in fact, Azir and the others were at the very first moment they discovered these aliens. Stop sending back information and observations."

"When they spilled blood on the galaxy, their blood dripped on the map, making Ran Dan's trajectory nowhere to hide, allowing us to confirm that this is a huge prey worth continuing to invest in and wait for, allowing us to precisely Controlling the number of personnel can not only delay Ran Dan's first wave of offensive, but also prevent them from becoming suspicious."

"That's sacrifice."

"Remember, you little brat, every sacrifice is not meaningless, the sacrifice itself is the greatest meaning."

"And all of this, they don't know."

"They thought we were unprepared, that we were weak, that we were new medals in their blasphemous conquest."

"They don't know anything."

"And in this ignorance and arrogance, they walked straight into the trap of [Lion]."

------

"Everyone, I have to regret to inform you that due to the dense firepower network of this big guy in front of us, any landing operations using airdrop pods, jumping torpedoes, and Stormbirds are the purest act of courting death."

"So we're going to run right into it."

"Repeat, [Tear of Reason] is about to make a hard landing, please be ready for the impact, there are still millions of aliens!"

"I know you want to kill them, guys, because I want to do the same, but please remember our first priority, don't forget it, otherwise [Lion] will be angry, it is comparable to a planet Aliens are much more terrifying."

There was a burst of deep laughter in the cabin.

"Okay, let's stop the gossip. Now you still have time to say goodbye to the fighting brothers beside you. After a while, those bastards will rush up. As you know, all organizations and queues will become history."

"Now, get ready for impact!"

The voice suddenly became low.

"Get ready to die."

------

"When Ran Dan's fleet stepped into this galaxy, the final hunt had already begun."

"But before that, as you can see, we spent a day on Sabis [-], this is to let those alien fleets completely pour into the central region of this galaxy, especially the battle moon, Although it is extremely powerful, its slow speed is the only drawback."

"And when we procrastinated long enough, at this very moment, as you can see, we temporarily closed Mandeville Point with one of the Legion's secrets, making the Sabis system an impenetrable net. "

"Next?"

"Of course I'm waiting for the real killing move."

"You don't think that we can annihilate such a huge force with people like us?"

"As for what the killing move is..."

"You should still remember, or you have already forgotten. At this moment, on Shana's front line, the war between the empire and Ran Dan is in a period of stagnation, and reinforcements from various legions are arriving one after another. This means that our Sufficient troops can be drawn."

"And on this basis, do you still remember the plans of these Randan fleets?"

"They plan to pass through the Mandeville point here, as well as the star gate, jump directly to the vicinity of Shana, and surprise our main force."

"Then here comes the problem."

"Since they can jump to Shana through this star gate, shouldn't the main force of our army stationed in Shana be able to jump here through this star gate?"

"After all, we are the hunters."

light.

When the [Tear of Reason] launched its final charge towards Ran Dan's battle moon, light burst out from a corner of the Sabis galaxy.

Morgan could sense something, she sensed something awakening on Sabis IV, an ancient slumber interrupted.

A sharp edge slowly drew out from the desert of Sabis [-], cut into the skin of the void, and in the blink of an eye, amber light flooded out of it, and what appeared with it was ready to go, Hordes of warships of the Imperium of Man.

The most dazzling and greatest of them is a terrifying battleship that is almost pure black, a ruthless god of death in the void, and a metal beast that is ready to roar in all directions at any time.

It was a Queen of Glory.

That was the flagship of the First Legion.

That is one of the greatest and proudest strengths of the Empire.

It was the Primarch of the Dark Angels, the ship of Lion-Jonson himself.

【Invincible Rational Number】

Here it comes.

【Lion】Here we come.

　emmm, it has been confirmed, I will put it on the shelves around February 2st, so I have worked hard to collect manuscripts these two days
　　This chapter can be regarded as a general overview of the Sabis galaxy. I have mentioned all the details and premise in the previous chapters. You can go back and take a good look. Maybe there will be surprises~

　　But then again, originally this chapter will be released in about fifty pages, I did delay too much time on the perspectives of various supporting roles, emmm
　　To improve, to improve!
