Warhammer 40 Spring: Loyalty of the Multiverse

Chapter 3 Crisis
Looking at the damaged positioning beacon, Quan Tiehua had no choice but to report the situation to the other team members on the communication channel.

"Attention everyone, I encountered a chaotic demon. The threat has now been eliminated, but the teleportation beacon is damaged."

Meanwhile, Leonster and his fellow fighters, who were leisurely strolling and chasing after the Chaos traitors who were fleeing in panic, were all silently making preparations in their hearts.

Lyonster showed no reaction upon hearing the news, a common predicament the Astartes encountered during their missions.

But for the powerful, this is nothing to fear.
At worst, one can inherit the glory of returning to the Golden Throne.

"loyalty."

Lyonst had just reached a crossroads when he was able to easily track down the retreat route of the Chaos traitors.

But... clearly, these Chaos traitors aren't simply running away.

At the other end of a broken bridge at the end of a long corridor, several Chaos Traitors were stationary, pushing Hellhammer-shaped laser cannons.

Several mortal traitors quickly connected to the additional battery pack.

As the screen zoomed in, more and more of the retreating Chaos traitors came into view.

They sought refuge in the other cabins around them.

呲——

Lyonst's figure had barely appeared at the intersection, his explosive pistol still raised, when a terrifying laser attack struck his terracotta armor.

As Leonster of Astartes, he is also the captain of the boarding squad.

Its overall capabilities are very strong.

Take reaction speed, for example.

This allowed Leonster to survive the attack by sheer luck.

However, the blood seeping from the cracks near the joints of Tao Gangjia indicated his condition.

The laser cannon not only injured Lyonster, but also vaporized the Chaos traitors who had not yet retreated from the attack route into air.

The blast smoke grenades bounced back and forth on the ship's walls, and the thick smoke instantly covered the corridor and also obscured the view of the Hellhammer-type laser cannon.

The moment the smoke appeared, the Astartes squad, armed with boarding shields, and Leonster quickly blocked the passage.

The other team members were positioned not far from the corridors on both sides of the intersection.

Bang bang bang bang bang bang——

The terrifying barrage of explosive firepower was unleashed instantly, turning the enemies who had taken cover in the adjacent compartments and were trying to launch a surprise attack under the cover of smoke into dust.

Lyons, however, held up his fully charged plasma pistol and pulled the trigger based on the general direction he had just remembered.

Like a comet with a tail, the plasma struck the Hellhammer-shaped laser cannon, annihilating the heavy firepower.

……

Quan Tiehua aimed at a grenade that had already been placed in the combat corridor outside the cabin.

The chaotic footsteps that Lyman heard became clearer and clearer.

Even the sounds of some of the bombs firing reached my ears.

He held a bomb gun in his right hand and a combat blade as a support in his left.

The makeshift shelters piled up with debris and enemy corpses provided excellent cover for Astartes' towering figure in the dim lighting typical of battles on ships.

The panicked heretics, carrying tattered weapons, suddenly appeared around the corner, exposing themselves to Quan Tiehua's view.

But he didn't rush to fire.

Instead, they waited quietly, as the heavy breathing inside the helmet slowly faded. The heretics, who were about to rush out of the corridor, had clearly noticed something amiss in the compartment. Before they could even fully raise their weapons, a precise explosive round pierced through the body blocking their path and struck the trap already poised to fire around the corner.

boom.

In an instant, terrifying explosions rang out one after another throughout the corridor, and flames spewed out from each corridor exit like a roaring fire dragon.

In just a short time, most of the infidels who came to help were wiped out.

Quan Tiehua slowly stood up, picked up the explosive pistol at his waist, gripped the combat dagger in his other hand, and stepped onto the somewhat sticky ship's deck with his heavy magnetic boots.

Bang bang bang.

The explosive pistol fired rapidly, followed by a combat dagger within seconds.

Meanwhile, the other brothers also began to steadily advance here, dealing with the remaining Chaos heretics.

……

The battle on the bridge unfolded swiftly. Although they lost a locating beacon, their extensive experience facing chaotic enemies throughout their countless combat careers made it clear that carrying only one of these crucial pieces of equipment was not feasible.

However, the chaotic energy of the subspace caused the positioning beacon signal to be severely unstable.

But on the Seraphim, Captain Aphros couldn't care less about that now. On the planet below, the planet's governor had sent them no fewer than ten requests for combat assistance in just a few Terran minutes.

This planet, being the one most frequently contacted by traveling merchants and wandering travelers, has clearly been quite corrupted.

Fortunately, those in the hives above that firmly believed in the emperor were still fighting to the death.

But for them, the most likely outcome would still be that they would die at the hands of their own people, still clinging to their lofty faith in the emperor.

With the last message relayed by the Star Speaker, Captain Aphros knew that there was no time to lose.

Because their reinforcements will not arrive for another half month in Terra.

Who knows what will happen to this place by then?
But they were unlucky, since they were the closest rescue force to this sector and the ones that could be mobilized.

"Activate the boarding torpedo."

As the order was given, the gates slowly opened, and boarding torpedoes began to rush straight toward the enemy Chaos warships, one after another.

Even among the few remaining assault boats of the Seraphic Angels Chapter, some veteran soldiers of the company, clad in Unyielding Terminator armor, were fully prepared and ready to go.

With more and more landing sites, the Astartes of the Seraphim Chapter began to occupy various important positions on the ship in large groups.

The boarding shield led the way, serving as makeshift cover. The Unyielding Terminator armor followed closely behind, providing fire support and some cover for the Astartes behind them with its powerful firepower, armor, and deflection field.

The entire Chaos ship was mostly destroyed within just half a Terra hour.

Apart from some oddities on the lower deck, almost every part of the ship was wiped out in an instant.

Some squads even headed towards the bridge to provide support after completing their assigned tasks.

However, when the support team arrived at the bridge, they found that the situation had changed drastically.

Noise warriors have even appeared in the enemy camp.

Moreover, not only on this ship, but also on the planet below, those corrupted imperial sons appeared.

These corrupted sons of the emperor are individually more powerful than ordinary loyal Astartes.

Their arrival, coupled with the corrupted and twisted mortal believers, dealt the most ferocious blow to the loyalist camp on the planet.

Suddenly, the battle lines became extremely precarious.
