Warhammer 40: Gods Of Mortals

Chapter 89 The role of the ashes
As the battleship turned and retreated, a beam of light was fired from the front of the heavy artillery, but was blocked by the cruiser's void shield, and the attack was diverted into the warp.

Then the second beam shot towards the cruiser soon, and was intercepted by the void shield again.

The heavy artillery kept firing, and the cruiser turned to evacuate. After being hit seven times in a row, the void shield collapsed, and the eighth beam directly hit the left side of the hull, sweeping from the stern to the front.

All the weapons on the side of the hull swept by the light beams were completely destroyed. Everyone in the bridge could clearly feel the tremor of the explosion from the lower level, and this was just collateral damage.

The captain immediately issued a series of orders, such as opening the airlock in the hit area to extinguish the fire in the vacuum environment outside, urging the crew maintaining the void shield to let them restart the void shield as soon as possible, so that all the people and slaves on the ship should not gather but disperse everywhere to avoid being taken away by the concentrated fire, and the most important thing.

Prepare to enter the Warp.

The warship was still flying forward, and the heavy artillery on the satellite was also firing non-stop, beams of light hit the hull one after another until the warship was ready for subspace navigation, and fled quickly after the subspace engine and Geller stand were turned on at the same time.

The ball of light condensed by the heavy artillery on the satellite dissipated, and the satellite continued to rotate as a whole, as if it had never been attacked or attacked anyone else.

……

"Approaching enemy ship detected, activate self-defense protocol."

"Particle Lance Charge."

"Charge complete."

"First launch, damage effect: intercepted by void shield."

"..."

In the underground cave of the fortress, Qin Mo quietly watched the image displayed on the screen.

That is the first perspective image of the orbital dock, showing the entire process of the orbital dock being attacked just now, and the main control intelligence is responsible for the defense, which controls the weapons on the orbital dock's shell.

It was a small particle lance originally intended to place counter-orbital bombardment on planets.

The shield that intercepts the enemy is an energy shield that is completely different from the void shield.

The only thing that Qin Mo found incomprehensible was the fact that one torpedo and two macro artillery shells disappeared during the only enemy attack.

It's like a small defense device was activated, it's not very useful for the whole battle, and it doesn't matter without it, but the problem is that Qin Mo doesn't remember that he installed a defense device that can make the enemy's attack disappear.

"Before the energy shield took effect, I detected the subspace reaction." The master control intelligence said.

"Subspace reaction? Could it be the ashes that took effect?" Qin Mo asked with a smile.

"Perhaps." The master control intelligence responded, "In the areas of New Cato and Lower Nest, commemorating the war dead is something that must be done every day."

Qin Mo lowered his head and thought for a moment, and then thought that the ashes might indeed be working, but now it can only counteract the enemy's few attacks, and even in the next ten years, there may not be much progress.

But that's enough.

"How is the manufacturing of the battleship going?" Qin Mo asked.

"The frigate has been manufactured by 30.00%, while the cruiser is manufactured by 20.00%. The time to complete the manufacturing will be about [-] hours earlier than my previous estimate." The main control intelligence replied.

Qin Mo is very satisfied. He thinks that as long as the warship leaves the factory and is manned, it can launch an attack on Tailong II.

At that time, a large number of weapons for orbital bombing can be installed on the shell of the orbital dock, and it can be directly sent to the orbit of Tyrone II. At that time, it will be much easier to conquer an entire planet than to attack the upper and lower nests of Tyrone's hive capital.

Qin Mo rested his mind and continued to focus on researching weapons that could completely destroy all enemies on Tailong No. [-].

This is not simply to make a big bomb and blow up the planet. There are only three habitable planets in the Tyron galaxy, so it can't be blown up unless necessary.

"The crew has almost been selected." The main control intelligence talked about another thing, "There is a man named Adam, 34 years old, he is among the best in all tests, and his mood is very stable, which is very good for controlling the battleship and can avoid interference caused by emotional fluctuations."

"Hurry up and arrange the training, it is best that they can control the warship immediately after it leaves the factory." Qin Mo ordered.

"Yes." The master control intelligently responded.

……

Bottom Nest New Cato City.

Logistical machinery repair shop.

When the logistics machinery was repairing the logistics machinery, the maintenance engineers gathered together to check the latest progress of the war.

Word of the Orbital Dock driving off an enemy cruiser has yet to spread, but just the series of advances the army has made in the upper nest sewer area is enough to cheer everyone up.

Grote joined the others in cheering as he heard the progress of the battle, but he quickly suppressed his excitement.

"Groot, someone is looking for you." A worker stepped forward and patted Grote on the shoulder, then pointed to the factory gate.

An officer stood there expressionlessly, staring at Grote coldly like a statue.

He's an officer but doesn't wear power armor, instead he wears something like a battle suit.

"Adam!" Grote immediately walked towards the officer.

The officer named Adam watched Grote quietly, and responded indifferently: "Good afternoon, Grote."

The two had known each other for a long time. During this period, whenever Adam had free time, he would come to the factory to find Grote and give him some special instructions.

These teachings were concerned with one thing only, and that was to help Grote control his emotions.

The two walked towards the outside of the factory.

On the way, Adam suddenly said: "After I leave, there will be a second person who will come to you and continue to teach you how to restrain your emotions."

"Then what are you going to do? The Legion Commander has formed a new unit?" Grote asked in bewilderment.

"I was selected by the angel as a crew member of the battleship, and I will start training soon." Adam said.

This is exciting news. No one wants to be a crew member on a battleship. Grote is very happy for Adam from the bottom of his heart, but when Adam himself said this news, he was like a robot, with a very flat tone.

Grote knew that the people in the "servants" were all like Adam, they would restrain their emotions and needs, and they would even sneak out to follow the logistics machinery when they were arranged to be entertained under the church.

"I still don't understand, why do you want to guide me?" Grote asked.

"Because you used to be a guard, but you lost the qualification to be a guard, because you are too far away from God. But you are not hopeless." Adam said calmly.

Grote nodded silently.He didn't really want to join the servants, but he was willing to pay any price just to become a guard again, or to be an ordinary soldier, as long as he didn't just idle around in this factory every day.

"After the previous research on you, I think you are too excited in the battle. We specially prepared the venue and a special training plan to help you restrain the excitement in the battle." Adam said.

"Okay, take me there." Grote agreed without hesitation, and followed Adam.
