Protoss in Warhammer

Chapter 35 35. Space Front ([-])

As the terrifying purifying light ejected from the huge crystal at the bottom of the mothership, the Tyran fleet also began to make urgent evasive maneuvers.

The giant blue laser cut through the dark night sky and hit the Tyranid fleet hard.Due to the strong energy emitted by the mothership, a cruiser at the front that had no time to evade was directly vaporized by the terrible energy. Some other hive warships also suffered a devastating blow, and the powerful energy beam directly hit Several "straight lines" were drawn in the Hive Fleet.

Some Hive Battleships that managed to survive were surprised to find that the original carapace and flesh in the area where they were attacked had turned into a light blue hot energy crystal. This was also the original function of the mothership.In fact, the mothership was not originally designed as a combat aircraft carrier. To put it bluntly, it was originally an armed mining ship. However, after the terrible civil war, the eldest sons of the Ancient Saints embarrassingly found that they had The use of many military technologies has been lost, so most ships are secondary armed with civilian ships and used as naval forces.

And as a mothership used as a mining ship.It is not the same as a mining ship in the traditional sense, because a mining field in the traditional sense only mines, while a mothership directly turns a planet into a mineral deposit when there is no ore grass.

By transmitting powerful energy to the entire planet, the material on the entire planet will eventually undergo a chain reaction and eventually become a nuclear fusion fuel.But this kind.Minerals have a big hidden danger, that is, they are prone to explosions under the extremely powerful high temperatures they have just created. At this time, if someone throws a fire on them, they can see the entire planet turn into bright cosmic fireworks. .

So after the first attack, the Hive Fleet soon ushered in the second attack.Although this attack only left the artillery bombardment of the Void Battleship and the Storm Battleship, the high-energy crystals attached to the newly-survived Hive Fleet caused another huge explosion.

Although this round of attacks had successfully destroyed a large number of enemy warships, Zeratul was not happy at all.Because he could see a large number of narwhals gathering here in the distance, constantly transmitting terrifying biological battleships, coming to this battlefield to make up for the losses just now, and continuing to approach the mixed fleet in front of them.

They are powerful, but their enemies are endless.

Zeratul felt his heart go cold as he watched the penetrated Hive Fleet quickly heal again.At this moment, the communication channel that had been silent for a long time finally remembered a panting voice.
"Everyone, we need your help!"

After hearing that the voice was Valrath, Zeratul felt a little annoyed. Even if these dwarves hadn't come to support them until now, why did they come to him for support?
"I'm sorry, we are currently in a fierce exchange of fire with the Hive Fleet, and there is no way to give you more battleships!!"

"But we are also at war with the Hive Fleet!!"

"what?!"

At this time, Zeratul looked back in a panic after hearing this, and his heart instantly fell into an ice cave.

It turns out that what they have been attacking is only a small part of the Behemoth swarm. In fact, the entire Eight Peaks Star has been completely trapped in the Hive Fleet, just like a small rock standing in the river. About to be shot down.

Now, no matter which direction the coordinates of the three axes are, the shadows of those bugs are everywhere!The number of Behemoth swarms that swept across the entire southeastern part of the galaxy was estimated to be at least tens of thousands of biological battleships. During the famous Battle of Macragge, these terrifying battleships quickly fell to the hometown of the Ultramarines. , turned into a terrifying behemoth, and finally forced the Space Marines into the fortresses at the North and South Poles.

Zeratul knew that he was still a little too optimistic about the number of these insect swarms. These terrifying biological battleships could completely swamp them with the advantage of the insect sea!

Zeratul understands that with such an absolute advantage in numbers, no matter how many battles are fought, it is futile. The best way now is to leave the encirclement before the Hive Fleet completely surrounds them and make another plan.But it would be difficult for their dozens of warships to pass through these layers of siege nets, and they would have to find some help.

"With all due respect, Mr. Walrath, the Tyranids' fleet has now greatly exceeded our expectations! We must retreat! We ask you to evacuate the civilians on the planet immediately and break out with us!"

Walrath, who was fighting bravely on the front line, turned a sickly red face after hearing this, as if he had just drank a whole barrel of mead.
"Don't even think about it!!!! Eight Peaks Star is our home. If you want to escape, just escape on your own, you damn cowards!!!"

After hearing his answer, Zeratul bit the bullet and sent several more messages. As a result, all the dwarf lords scolded him back, especially when Wotan directly threatened them to run away.

But Zeratul couldn't care so much. After all, this situation was 100% unbeatable. It was important to save his life, so he quickly led his troops back to defend Aiur.

The dwarf fleet just watched the golden fleet leave here quickly, and then ran back quickly.

Valrat asked with some confusion when he saw this scene.
"Why are you back again?"

Zeratul just answered vaguely.

"It's nothing, I just don't want to see you die!"

Hearing these words, the honest dwarf was moved for a moment, and felt a little guilty when he remembered what he had just said.These sub-celestial beings don't seem to be what they thought, and they seem to have been wrongly blamed.

But in fact, the original mixed fleet really planned to withdraw, but before going far, the optical surveyor sent a depressing news, that is, most of the Hive Fleet had gathered at the entrance of the webway. It is impossible to go back the way we came.The only way now is to pass
Under the Eight Peaks Star, there is a former abandoned webway gate of the Eldar, and they are trying to reactivate this gate to withdraw everyone.

As for the battleship?It can only be temporarily sealed here using the phase shield and time displacement system, and can be retrieved when there is time in the future.The protoss who possess rudimentary time technology are not worried at all that those bugs will be able to break through that terrible defense.

And even if these warships are really lost, it doesn't matter much. Anyway, if automated production waits for another 200 or even 100 years, we can create a fleet larger than this.As long as the production momentum of the entire empire is stimulated by the war, the army will have a steady stream of supplies.

Now under the terrible attack of the Tyranids, the defenses of the space dwarves have begun to collapse. Soon the brutal ground war will begin. By then, there will be another tough battle waiting for the defenders of the Eight Peaks Star. them.
