Warhammer 40: Gods Of Mortals

Chapter 437: Eternal Bad Luck
The dimensional rift in the galaxy then closed.

What the Red Pirates didn't expect was that no other warships emerged immediately after them.

But there is no way. Now that the war has begun out of hiding, it is impossible to watch the warship provide orbital bombing support to the troops launched on the surface.

It was not the Ultramarines that were dropped to the surface, but the Lamenters Chapter.

What entered the galaxy was not the Ultramarines' flagship, Macragge's Glory, but the Lamenters Chapter's flagship, the Storm Daughter, gifted by Lord Tyron.

In fact, the Blood Angels Chapter had already learned about the start of the Tyrone Defense War. Before receiving the request for help from the Tyrone sector in the dimensional communication equipment, Dante had already begun mobilizing the Angel Children and the Blood Slave Auxiliary Army.

It's just that the Tyrones handed over a batch of warships before the war, and the war group had to learn how to open them, so now they just send the Lamenters war group to investigate.

The Lamenters Chapter was eager to open up a safe route to the interior of the sector for the parent group's reinforcements, so they chose the Alona system as the target for attack.

Foros had no idea that a place as unimportant as the Aerona Galaxy would be heavily defended.

The shields of the Storm Lady battleship are entering an overloaded state under the siege of the fleet, and the dimension engine is still cooling down.

"It will take at least 10 minutes for us to sail through the dimension again! Wait...the shield is shattered, and the engines and other electronic equipment are interfered with by electromagnetic pulses!"

"I see."

On the surface of Elona [-], Foros and the battle group faced a more embarrassing situation than the battleship.

After more than 700 people in the battle group arrived on the surface in airdrop pods, they were almost instantly besieged by the Red Pirate Space Marines and the mortal servant army.

The overwhelming artillery fire swept in, and there were enemies everywhere as far as the eye could see.

The dimension transmission device in the airdrop cabin was blown to pieces by artillery fire before it was activated. The entire battle group could only find bunkers on the spot to fight, waiting for the warship to break away from the electromagnetic interference, and then leave with everyone.

There are more than 3000 Red Pirate Space Marines participating in the siege near the landing site, plus hundreds of thousands of mortal servants, and thousands of Space Marines from other parts of the planet are coming. The offensive they launched is unimaginable. terrible.

But the Weeper is not a soft persimmon to be manipulated.

Twenty years ago, the Chapter might not have been able to hold out for even a few minutes under such an offensive before being completely wiped out, but now all members of the Wailers are wearing various models of Terminator power armor.

Even the only Dreadnought in the Chapter was replaced with the Dresdu Heavy Siege Dreadnought - a 30K powerful Dreadnought. In order to thank the Weeper for its support in the defense of Baal, Dante removed it from Taken from the Blood Angels' treasury and given to the Lamenter.

"Traitors! Face the wrath of Old Kyron!" The veterans of Drestu's Dauntless roared, releasing a storm of missiles and explosive bombs at the Space Marines and mortals who charged ahead.

Chiron instantly obliterated nearly a hundred Space Marines and tens of thousands of mortal servants, but he was immediately under fire.

However, the atomic energy shield carried in the Dreadnought easily withstood the incoming artillery fire. On the contrary, the enemies armed with heavy weapons were exposed to Chiron's sight after opening fire, and were immediately bombed, and the organized ones were annihilated.

There were too many enemies, and the weak advantage the Weeper gained in the early stage was quickly outnumbered, and casualties began to occur.

The shield of the Storm Lady has been shattered. The red pirate fleet is surrounding the Storm Lady, bombing the flagship with the damage caused by the particle light spear. Hundreds of electromagnetic pulse torpedoes plus ion torpedoes are blasting at the ship. The macro cannon then bombarded the flagship's unprotected hull.

But this battleship is too huge, even larger than the Glory Queen class. Even if it is exposed to the firepower of the entire fleet, it can still withstand it for a long time with the hull of the ship.

As the battle rages on, with Lamenter Space Marines dying every second, the Stormmaiden's crew near its hull is rapidly dwindling.

Foros heard the battle damage reports one after another. His heart was filled with anger and he was still lamenting how he was so unlucky that he ran into the ambush.Besides...why did the Red Pirates set up defenses here?Squeezing out ship power from the fierce battle with the Tyron Navy just to defend a galaxy that doesn't even serve as a springboard for attack and has no strategic value?

"Chapter Master! Demonic Engine!"

Shouts sounded from behind Foros, and the technical sergeant who was fighting with Tyrone weapons fired while pointing forward.

There were overwhelming demon engines sweeping over them. They were not actually many in number, but their momentum was astonishing.

Especially the Skull Lord Demon Engine that was marching at the front. The giant cannon on its chest finally penetrated Chiron's atomic shield after firing several times, shattering Dresdu's fearless right shoulder.

"Fight with me!" Foros roared, leading the guards to face the demon engine.

While the two sides were engaged in a fierce battle, no one noticed a golden light falling from the sky to the ground.

Foros brandished his spear to fight the Lord of Skulls. When the spear pierced the Demon Engine's belly, the ax on the Demon Engine's right arm had already been chopped off.

Chiron rushed towards the Lord of Skulls in an attempt to help the Chapter Master withstand the blow, but was too late.

Just as the giant ax was about to fall, a golden light suddenly penetrated the Skull Master from top to bottom.

The demon engine roared and exploded. Among the metal fragments scattered in the sky, a holy and beautiful figure was slowly rising from the smoke.

The silver wings stretch to the left and right, like an angel.

When the beautiful face slowly turned to Foros, the latter made a trembling voice: "Father..."

Appearing on the battlefield was none other than the genetic father of the Lamenters, the ninth Primarch Sanguinius.

When Foros saw the beautiful eyes of the Gene Father smiling, he slowly nodded to himself in recognition, then turned to anger and rushed towards the demon engines.

"For the Gene Father!" Foros raised his spear and roared in battle, following Sanguinius' footsteps towards the demon engine.

The appearance of the Gene Father soothed the hearts of all the weepers. The weepers were full of courage and fought bloody battles with the enemies gathered from all directions.

When Foros fought side by side with the Gene Father, he saw that the Gene Father's body was not flesh and blood, but a living metal similar to the body of Lord Tyron.

This body is gradually collapsing due to the power of Sanguinius, and bits of metal are floating upward in the golden light.

But Sanguinius's power was not limited by his frail body, and he could defeat a Skull Lord in an instant by himself.

As the battle raged on the surface of Alona I, the Blood Angels Chapter's warships emerged from the dimensional rift.

When the red pirate fleet hurriedly divided its forces to deal with the Blood Angels...

In another corner of the galaxy, another dimensional rift opened.

Macragge's Glory sailed out with a fleet of five hundred worlds.

Calgar, the Chapter Leader of the Ultramarines, stood in front of the flagship's porthole. He raised his hand and ordered the fleet to immediately launch a fierce attack on the Red Corsair Fleet.
