After finishing the meeting, Rorschach came to the base of the Thousand Sons Legion on Terra. It was a hidden underground fort bunker. Although the main part was underground, nearly one-third of the buildings were actually on the ground. superior.

The transport plane slowly landed outside the fortress, and Khayon and Ahriman had been waiting here for a long time.

"Sorry, there are a lot of things. When you told me, I just finished the meeting," Rorschach said to the two apologetically after getting off the transport plane.

"It's nothing... Long time no see, Mr. Rorschach, but this is not a good place to talk about things. Let's go in and talk about it," Ahriman said, his words were full of sadness and pain, and Rorschach could feel the exhaustion and pain in his soul. Blaming himself, Kayon then took his words and said:

"Commander Rorschach, please come in... What's wrong with your eyes?" Kayon said, and walked towards the gate of the fortress. Rorschach noticed that there were no guards standing outside the gate. To be precise, there were no guards. The standing Thousand Sons soldier gave him a bad feeling, but he still answered Kayang's question casually:

"I'm fine, let's go."

As soon as he entered the fortress, Rorschach felt that the inside was much colder than the outside, as if he had walked into a huge catacomb, and this fortress only used large candles for lighting. Under the effect of the blowing cold wind, all the candles were shaking non-stop, which also caused the shadows of the few people behind to shake.

After walking for a few more minutes, Rorschach finally saw two Thousand Sons warriors as guards, but he felt powerful spiritual power from them. These are two Thousand Sons wizards... When will such a powerful wizard come to stand guard?

Pushing open the gate guarded by the two thousand son wizards, Rorschach saw a scene that was enough to make his heart stop:

Tens of thousands of Soldiers of Thousand Sons stood quietly in this tomb. They stood in a circular formation. On the table in the center of the circle was a book with a red body and a gold border.But Luo Xia couldn't feel any trace of life from these soldiers, as if what was inside the armor was not living flesh and blood, but cold dust!

"...explain, Commander Ahriman," Rorschach said, his brows furrowed deeply, and when he turned to see Ahriman staring into his eyes, the latter clenched the staff in his hand, His chest heaved a few times, and he said in a voice mixed with regret and despair:

"I... After you left, I wanted to solve the problem of the legion's flesh and blood mutation... So, I took my assistants and launched a spell."

"But it is clear that your arrogance and ignorance have destroyed everything in the Legion. Lord Magnus has shown his benevolence by not executing you, Ahriman!" Kayon roared angrily, his voice echoing throughout the entire army. There is no one in the grave to answer him.

"Kayon, how can you understand my feelings?! When the Legion fell into the desperate situation of flesh and blood mutation, when the Legion was ambushed by the Alpha Legion, and when the Legion was besieged by demons, where were you? You were just... ...Sorry, Lord Rorschach, I didn't mean to reprimand you."

"Don't worry about it," Rorschach reached out and patted Ahriman's shoulder, and then he whispered the girl's name:

"Little round."

The pink-haired girl slowly floated out of Luo Xia's body, and after she floated out, Luo Xia's golden eyes also returned to emerald color.This strange scene amazed Ahriman. If the timing and object were not inappropriate, he would have wanted to study this strange and powerful "psychic aggregate".

"Oh, Miss Theory of the Circle," Kayon said, bowing slightly to the girl, "can you help us in this matter?"

"..." The girl didn't answer him directly, but just walked up to the Thousand Sons Warrior closest to her to observe, but to the disappointment of Kayan and Ahriman, the girl was powerless about it, so she said:

"No, my current strength is not enough to restore their bodies...but I can feel their souls still attached to this armor."

After hearing the girl's words, Kayan could only sigh, but Ahriman asked Rorschach:

"Lord Rorschach, may I ask who is..."

"The principle of the ring is the god of another universe, and has a covenant relationship with the emperor, and I am her patron," Luo Xia quickly and concisely explained the girl's origin, then he thought for a moment, looked at Ali Man's eyes asked:

"Have you figured out what you're going to do when it's all over?"

"After the great rebellion is over? No, I haven't thought about it that far, Lord Rorschach," Ahriman replied. He reached out his hand as if wanting to touch the armor of the soldiers, but finally gave up the idea. He didn't know Did he have the right to touch them, his brothers, so he put down his hands and continued:

"I did the divination over and over again for myself, but all I saw was fragments of unclear meaning, I saw an abyss, the abyss is the most frequent thing I've ever seen in these fragments, it might be a foreshadowing, And it may be my ultimate fate."

"Survive the rebellion, Ahriman," Rorschach said, shaking his head, as if he was feeling something, "You can go to the endless universe to find a way to save your legion, but the premise is that you can survive."

"...I will survive, Lord Rorschach."

Seeing that Ahriman had no more words, Kayon stepped forward and said to Rorschach:

"Commander Rorschach, the thing that Lord Magnus left for you is on that table...but no one can touch that book, so you need to go there yourself. In fact, this is also for you to come The purpose of coming here."

"Okay, I get it, Kayon... Also, there's no need to be so unfamiliar with each other," Rorschach said, and then walked towards the high platform. Behind him, the corners of Kayon's mouth turned up slightly , and quickly put it down again, but this scene was still captured by Ahriman.The commander of the first company of the Thousand Sons suddenly thought, if at that time, he followed Rorschach instead of Kayan, would the fate of the legion change now...

Rorschach walked for nearly 2 minutes before arriving at the high stage where the tome of psionic spells known as the "Book of Magnus" was placed.It wasn't until this moment that Rorschach really saw the true side of the book. On the cover of the book was the white sun ring of the Thousand Sons Legion. When he reached out and touched the book, it was cold but not chilling.Luo Xia opened the book, but there was nothing inside, only blank pages, but when he injected a bit of spiritual energy into the book, he found that the environment around him had changed dramatically!

He was already deep in a huge library, where all kinds of books were densely placed, and the bookshelves on which these books were placed continued to extend into the darkness above, reaching the limit of Rorschach's vision.Rorschach suddenly felt something touching his feet, so he looked down and found that it was a golden beetle with two large pincers and two small green eyes rolling around, There are many such scarabs in the library, and it seems that they are responsible for the maintenance of the library.And after Luo Xia closed the book and interrupted the input of spiritual energy, this strange scene also disappeared.

"This is really a great gift, Mr. Magnus..."

Chapter 368 Chapter 180 The Curtain Opens: Pre-War Planning

USS Infinity War aircraft carrier, bridge.

"It's a little difficult."

Rorschach touched his chin, looking worriedly at the projection in front of him, the projection of Mars.From this thing, he can see that the entire important area of ​​Mars has raised thick void shields to resist possible orbital bombardment, and according to previous intelligence and the report of the reconnaissance ship of the Jurha Fleet, the foundry factories under the Mars are still Working, and... Mars has lost a third of its population, and those people probably either died in the war or turned into something worse.

"If it weren't for this place being useful, I would have blown up this place with the Black Sun Cannon... Teleporting into the enemy's special field is so stupid that it can't be any more stupid."

"This can't be done, Mars is still very important to the empire," Valdor stepped out of the shadows and stood beside Rorschach. In the entire bridge stood Jurha, Fury Warrior, Emperor's Son and Steel Cast The leaders of the Wing Company, of course, will also be the Archmage Jabri Desima of the Order of the Circle and the envoy of the current Foundry General Kane, Mal 21.

To be honest, there is an awkward atmosphere in the entire bridge now, and even those Jurha correspondents who are working have lowered their voices, but the special envoy of the casting general seems not to notice ...No, he noticed it, but he still focused more on the devices and equipment in the bridge that were completely different from the mainstream technology in this world.

"Ahem, Mr. Special Envoy?"

"...This thing is really beautiful, I hope its machine spirit is as beautiful as its appearance..."

"Ahem, Mr. Envoy, please don't try to dismantle the equipment in the bridge, they are very important."

"I'm sorry, I'm just curious when I saw this," Mar 21 said without apology. His appearance was no different from that of a normal human being, and his appearance was ordinary, but Rorschach could feel the pain in his body. The organs have been almost replaced, but it is also the face of Mal 21 that he was selected as the special envoy of the Mechanicus. It may be because General Casting thinks that Rorschach prefers the appearance of humans.

After seeing that the special envoy stopped trying to harass Jurha and dismantle the equipment, Rorschach continued to focus on the projection in front of him, and said to the others:

"I will personally drive the ACU to bring Jurha's commander company quantum teleportation into the field. Eight hours after our successful arrival, you will land at the landing site we have opened up... The teleportation location is on the Arcadia Plains, Located 8 km NW of Mount Olympus, where I can avoid the first wave of enemy anti-landing forces, and where it is far from the main anti-orbital firepower of Mount Olympus, Jurha fleet can provide initial firepower support."

After finishing speaking, Rorschach looked at the expressions of the people around him, and saw that none of them had any objection, but just as he was about to continue speaking, the special envoy who cast the general asked aloud:

"Please forgive my impoliteness, Lord Rorschach," Mar 21 said, "The Mechanicus still needs to prepare the defense on Terra... So, how many Skitarii and Titan Legion do you need?"

"Call me Commander Rorschach, Mr. Special Envoy, how many troops can you provide?"

"20 Skitarii, including the 5 that will be provided to the Order of the Circle, a Titan Legion, more troops need to fill the high walls of Terra, and Lord Rog Dorn refuses to put the above two Titan Legions into Operation Mars Recovery."

"...20, that's enough," Rorschach pondered, crossing his arms around his chest and tapping his arm lightly with his right index finger. Then he turned his head to look at the great sage Dexima standing aside, and said:

"The cathars belong to the Great Sage, and the words of the Titan Legion will be included in my army... Which legion is it?"

"The Sundial Legion, also known as the Empire Hunter, Master Rorschach... Ah, I mean Commander Rorschach."

After hearing this legion, the soldiers on the bridge began to discuss in a low voice, which aroused Rorschach's interest. He reached out and knocked on the table to attract the attention of others and asked:

"Any questions?"

"No, it's just that the drivers of this legion are all women, but their record is not inferior to other legions. During the Great Crusade, their number of kills was the third highest among all Titan legions."

"Well, I'm looking forward to their activity," Rorschach pressed a few times on the data board, and continued: "Okay, let's continue, and the next step is the specific tactical plan."

"The space fighter force is to be used as a beheading force. By storming the enemy's key nodes and killing key commanders to ensure our tactical advantage and turn it into a strategic advantage... The Raven Guard has sneaked in, and they will provide Relevant information, and if you find large enemy vehicles and logistics supply stations, you must immediately call for firepower from the rear to attack, and don't make unnecessary sacrifices."

"The Skitarii should cooperate with the Jurha combat troops to enter the underground foundry. Similarly, the main goal is to seize the key nodes, delay the enemy's reinforcements, and reduce the enemy's quantitative and qualitative advantages...don't care too much about those bottles and cans Can, as long as the rebellion can be put down smoothly, it will be established one day, understand?"

These words were spoken by Rorschach specifically to the great sage of the Order of the Circle and the special envoy. He knew very well what Mars meant to the empire, and he also understood that after such a long time, what would happen on that red planet? There are so many irreplaceable but extremely precious things, but as he said just now, it is no longer the time to care about these things.

"Yes, Commander Rorschach, we have made up our minds, as long as we can go home, it is worth paying any price," Mar 21 stretched out his hand to touch his chest, and saluted deeply, and beside him, Desi Sage Martha also sighed, and looked at Rorschach with firm eyes.

"Very good, then let's continue," Rorschach nodded. He was very satisfied with the attitude of the two of them. As for the matters in the battle, we should deal with them in the battle. No matter how many plans we make now, they may not be useful in the battle. See the trick Disassemble it.Then, he rotated the projection, showing Olympus Mount on Mars in front of everyone, and said:

"This is the largest foundry on Mars and the most heavily guarded place. I will use large-scale battles again and again to destroy the resistance here to support the assassination team. After the assassination team completes the task, the Iron Hands Legion and the Imperial Fist The Legion will use large-scale airborne tactics to regain other areas of Mars, that is, we will attack Mount Olympus while resisting the attacks of other rebels..."

"Wait a minute, Commander Rorschach," the person who spoke was Sorolla Ann, the commander of the Steel Forged Wings Company. He looked at the projection and asked:

"What if the assassination team fails to complete the mission?"

Luo Xia looked up at him and said calmly:

"Then my Armored Legion will raze this twenty-kilometer-high mountain, together with the factories inside and any rebels who dare to resist... Do you have any other questions, Commander Sorolla Ann?"

"No, not anymore, Commander Rorschach."

Chapter 369 Chapter 180 The Curtain Opens: Quantum Strike

Kebo Hal, Lord of Mars, Forge General... There are too many titles like this, too many for ordinary people to count, but for this "former" Forge General who has already betrayed the glory of the Om Messiah, these Titles are also fleeting and useless.

Kebo Hal is now incapable of almost any emotional thought except anger and frustration.Under his rule, the huge casting furnace complex of Mount Olympus stretched tens of kilometers away, beyond the limit of human vision, and those towering manufacturing plants, refineries, worker living quarters, and mechanical workshops And the final assembly hangar covers thousands of square kilometers of the surface of Mars.This vast manufacturing hive, home to billions of Mechgods' loyal tech-priests, is now under threat.

"My lord... there is a strange force that bypassed our monitoring node at some point, appeared in the northwest of the Arcadia Plain, and defeated the defenders there."

Kebo Hal ignored the attendant's words, he was still thinking... He remembered the "thing" sent by the Warmaster. From the outside, it looked like the body of a silver-haired woman, and that thing was very similar to a real human being. , but she is a precise machine.

An eternal machine, a machine that allows him to break through the limitations of human flesh and blood...

Kebo Hal wants to obtain eternity, wants to break through the shackles of flesh and blood to gain real freedom, and he doesn't want to let the knowledge and experience in his mind for several centuries be wiped out.And at this time, the Warmaster came to the door and brought this thing in front of him. Combining with the previous promise of allowing him to study the intelligence of hatred, Kebo Harcher completely worshiped at the feet of the Wolf Shepherd God, even Willing to kiss the toe of his shoe!

"..."

"grown ups?"

"Send out the Skitarii and Intellectual Control Corps, inspect the manufacturing plant, send more guards, and transform more useless flesh and blood into Skitarii," Kebo Hall said, his vocal cords had already been replaced with machines, which made his The voice became cold and slightly harsh, but the Mechanicus was no longer something to be amazed at, it would be better to say that people who have not undergone transformation are worthy of amazement.

"Yes, my lord."

Just as the entire Mars began to adjust its military strength, Rorschach had already started building the fourth army factory.He came here by quantum teleportation an hour ago.At that time, the Mechanicists near the quantum teleportation field saw a strange scene they had never seen before:

First, a small shiny spot appeared in the open space, and then the bright spot quickly expanded into a huge bright circle of light. The dazzling light flickered, and the powerful suction swirled the surrounding air and soil into an unstoppable whirlwind. Just when the whirlwind was about to take shape, the wind stagnated for a moment——

A huge steel body emerged from the whirlwind, from the light. Its body stood on the ground of Mars. With its appearance, the whirlwind was torn apart and formed a roaring shock wave in the next second. The shock wave engulfed everything that was broken and rolled towards the surroundings.

ACU stands on the ground!

But this is not over yet. After Rorschach's ACU teleportation ended, Jurha's commander company also teleported into the arena. They drove the deputy commander ACU and had the same construction ability, but the number of troops that could be commanded was reduced. Rorschach made a limit.

The shock wave transmitted by the quantum pushed the surrounding buildings to the ground, and the rebels inside were also crushed under the wreckage, but it was not just that, just when they were about to fight back, what greeted these rebels who had betrayed the glory of the Ohm Messiah was The shining muzzle of ACU's right arm!

The ACU's supercharged energy destroyed the fixed cannon that was about to fire in the distance, and the light blue plasma ball hit the fort, melting the latter's armor, detonating the energy pipeline and melting it. Make a bigger fireball, followed by the plasma barrage fired by the deputy commander controlled by the Jurhas. Such a terrible and swift blow instantly disintegrated all resistance forces within a radius of ten kilometers.

"Let 40 people continue to suppress, and others start to build various facilities. We will occupy a quarter of the entire plain within two hours!"

Luo Xia sat in the ACU and ordered, and following his order, Jurha's commander company immediately started their own operations. They will first level the entire ground and reinforce the ground. Although it is a plain , but there are still many large pipelines and factories scattered under the surface. These may be the direction for the enemy to break through, so it is extremely necessary to spend a little time eliminating hidden dangers.

At this time, the Dark Mechanic Cult Skitarii still in the Arcadia Plains had already begun to assemble. Under the command of the Mechanic Priest, they formed several brigades through complex programming, and started the first wave of attacks.

The cathars are armed with powerful laser carbines. Every shot makes the shield of the ACU suffer real damage. Every shot will pour a huge amount of radiation into the surrounding environment, but even so, they It was still completely isolated from the line of defense.

Just before the Skitarii on the Arcadia Plain was assembled, Rorschach and the commander company built a simple line of defense consisting mainly of heavy point defense facilities and light and medium artillery. This line of defense will become an armored group The primary means of defense before being created.The line of defense stretched for several kilometers, but with the help of a large number of engineering vehicles and the ACU of the deputy commander type, although the line of defense has many loopholes, it is enough to resist the attacks of the Skitarii here.

"Commander Rorschach, the fleet has detected that a large number of rebel legions are gathering, and the other party even sent a Titan legion!"

"I see, send me their locations, and... get the Skitarii and Sundial Legion ready, we will defeat their vanguard in the first place!" Rorschach was wearing a power suit that he hadn't worn for a long time. Sitting in the cab of the ACU, the armor was lost in thought as he watched the information passed on the screen.

The number and speed of the enemy exceeded the previous estimate. It is necessary to use our own space fighters and cathars to buy time for the construction of the entire base... No, not only that, the Titan Legion is also a big threat.

Rorschach found that the intensity of the battle this time was far higher than the previous two battles in the Isstvan galaxy. This is the enemy's home field. Skitarii and intelligent robots pouring out of rock formations and factories.

Time, he needs time to create his own armored units. At the same time, the enemy's combat power is equally strong. The opponent can destroy the armored units of T1 level in one blow after consuming the shield of the vehicle. Only units above the T2 level can The armor can withstand several rounds of fire from the weapons in the hands of the cathars, but fortunately, the enemy is far weaker than the armored vehicles of the UEF...

Here, how weak is the flesh and blood!

Chapter 370 Chapter 180 Chapter [-] The Battle of Mars: Top Gun

+++ Ammunition reloaded +++

+++ Start Engine +++

+++In the name of God of Machines+++

+++ Arc'teryx Takes Off +++

As a flexible fixed-wing aircraft, the Archeopteryx has been used by the Mechanicus for thousands of years. They not only fly in the industrially poisoned sky of Mars, but also appear everywhere with the beginning of the Great Crusade. They fought for the glory of the Om Messiah on the battlefield, but now they are no longer loyal.

These pilots are basically squads with full combat experience from the Dragonwing troops (cyborgs, air units using jetpacks), and these crews will use their shoulder blades and legs for the highest control efficiency. It is directly and hard-wired to the control system of the Arc'teryx... This is the case with the Arc'teryx piloted by the Luo-242.

The Arc'teryx fighter jets of six squadrons, including him, flew towards Rorschach's Arcadia base as the first wave of air force, but they encountered a huge fleet on the way!

+++ Discover enemy fighters +++ Expand battle formation +++

Luo-242 controlled the fighter plane to dodge to the left, and his wingman followed him to do the same, but just after the formation dispersed, dozens of missiles with long tail flames attacked the Mechanicus fleet, The locking effect of these missiles is excellent. If the Arc'teryx fleet had not released a large number of jamming bombs in the first place, otherwise these missiles alone would have caused heavy losses to the first wave of air assault groups!

And at this moment, Luo-242 saw the opponent's fighter clearly. It was a triangular fighter, painted dark blue mixed with iron gray, and there were diamond patterns on the wings, and the number of fighters was More than twice the size of our own side, with a scale of nearly one hundred.

The flexibility of these fighter jets is average, and their combat skills are also very poor. There are only a few options such as maneuvering, climbing, and raiding. Apart from the good performance of the weapons and the airframe itself, the rest are simply armed compared to the elite pilots of Archeopteryx. The difference between a servitor and a cathar.

Unmodified human pilots are so incompetent... Luo-242 thought.

But even such a simple and crude tactic is enough to pose a serious threat to the Archeopteryx, so Luo-242 and his wingmen changed their tactics and began to use the flexible maneuverability of the Archeopteryx fighter to make various fake moves and cooperate with each other to shoot down Killed several enemy fighters.

Such tactics were quickly shared with other pilots through the data link. For a while, dozens of these triangle fighters were shot down, while the Arc'teryx fleet only lost a dozen fighters.

+++ Gear Squad +++ Combined Attack Formation [-] +++

Luo-242 began to summon his team, but the only ones who could respond to his call were two Arc’teryx fighters except for the wingmen. Now the four fighters of the gear team, headed by Luo-242, formed an arrow formation. Started to climb quickly, intending to attack the remaining triangle fighters from top to bottom.
