Warhammer: Decided to take the route of stars surrounding the warp

Ok?

Adeptus Mechanicus, emergency communications? Nothing will happen to my order, right? Yifeng grabbed the communication information, huh?

Want my support? Catching a marine creature more than ten kilometers long? Easily salvage a half-bitten sunken ship?

What is this and what?

Yifeng was confused, especially "You can charge whatever price you want - Father Maples." He was confused.

Is this a personal request? What I was asked to do didn't look like something a normal "just" Mechanicus priest could come up with.

With a big wave of my hand, I took it.

Stolov's recent research content is quite fancy, and this list sounds very interesting.

Yifeng selected twenty soldiers and graduating recruits, nearly sixty people, and planned to board three moon-class cruiser formations to support Father Mapes.

Underwater combat is really rare, and I also have to practice my skills. This kind of combat is not common.

These new recruits who were accustomed to fighting in gangs in space suddenly received the news that they were going to fight underwater. They were a little overwhelmed for a while. Even the experienced technical sergeant was surprised when he heard the news. In his long service history, Few battles were fought in the deep sea.

Among the entire ship, the one with the most abundant ocean combat experience is probably the Night Lord in the prison whose arms have been broken. They often seem to choose to enter the deep sea when hiding, especially when they have just dived into a new planet.

The technical sergeant told Yifeng what experience he still remembered as much as possible, and then went to look for some equipment that could be used for underwater combat. There were very few of these antiques. They were originally warships given to them by the Angel of Dawn, but maybe the Angel of Dawn felt that there was no need for these things at all. , so most of the marine combat equipment has remained.

It's almost ashes in the warehouse. I wonder if the machine spirit will be very angry.

Don't die there, Chapter Master.

Yifeng: Please stop this Kshevich-style blessing.

——————————————————————————————————

Three cruiser formations headed toward the unnamed galaxy.

This does not mean that Lunar-class cruisers cannot carry Astartes. The Astra Militarum also has gang-hopping troops, but it is a serious big brick-shaped assault pod, which can be launched in a variety of ways, including the simplest. No-frills takeoff mode from the hangar.

It was obviously not suitable for the Astartes' fighting style, but this time it wasn't a space battle, so I didn't care too much.

If you encounter an enemy in the subspace... then just run away while bombarding them, leading them to the same trap they laid on the new recruiting planet, and then surround them and beat them up.

Father Mapes stood on his frigate and kept spinning in circles. This was an old habit he had brought over from his days as a mechanical apprentice. Whenever he encountered a problem that he couldn't understand, he started spinning in circles. The faster he turned, the more distressed he became.

In a sense, he is the same as the great pharmacist who dragged the small train out of the tracks.

The Admiral Mechanicus fleet deputy who had been admonishing Father Mapus all the time didn't dare to say a word now. No matter how right you were before the incident, it didn't matter. You couldn't stab him afterwards, as it would be easy to create a deadly feud.

"Can Stolov's Mechanicum hear it? Can the ships ahead hear it? We are the Red Torrent Chapter. I am Chapter Commander Yifeng. Repeat, I am Chapter Commander Yifeng. Please respond if you hear it. .”

"Copy that, please come closer to us."

The Adeptus Mechanicus frigate gave the tractor beam mark.

The three cruiser formations were distributed in a triangle, and the frigates went to the Mandeville Point in the far reaches of the galaxy, always on alert, ready to deal with unexpected intrusions from the enemy.

The leaders of both sides met on the bridge of Yifeng's battleship.

"Oh, Father Mapes, you're all right. I'm getting more and more mechanized. I'm so successful."

Father Mapes had become accustomed to Yifeng's way of speaking as early as during the Great Exploration.

"Captain Yifeng is joking. I have been deeply troubled recently. Thank you very much for your willingness to help."

"Come on, let's not talk too much, let's talk about our opponents and strategic purposes."

"Commander Yifeng, please take a look."

A holographic projection was projected from several mechanical arms extending from Father Maples' back. It seemed that the priest had installed new things over the years.

In the projection, the transport ship is climbing in an emergency, but a huge terrifying monster rushes out from the bottom of the sea, causing huge waves that make the entire camera shake. There are also many unknown marine creatures lying on the black outer skin.

It's impossible to tell what type of creature this is just from its appearance, because its appearance is just a pile of rocks.

This oversized cylindrical rock pile jumped up from the ocean and then opened its mouth.

Imagine that something like a hill sprang out, cracked from it and bit off part of the transport ship.

There are no words to describe this shocking scene, especially when watching this attack from a low angle close to the beast.

Its sharp and huge teeth inserted into the armor of the transport ship like cutting tofu, attacking the core of the engine without any hindrance.

The entire transport ship was running its engines at full power at the time, and the scorching tail flames seemed to burn the inner wall of the giant beast's mouth.

It bit the battleship to pieces, and several huge teeth came out with the explosion. These teeth were marked in bright red by the priest as one of the targets to look for.

Judging from the part of the giant beast that emerges from the ocean, this deep-sea overlord may not even have his head fully exposed.

After putting away the holographic projection, Father Mapes opened the image of the bird servant scanned by the frigate.

It is roughly this giant creature swimming towards the deep sea. Its total length is about 12 kilometers. It looks like a swimming fish, the kind of ancient Terra. Except that its head is round, everything else is basically the same.

The fins are quite long, about one kilometer, and although they look "cute" compared to its entire body, I'm pretty sure that today's submersibles can't withstand a slap from this little cutie.

"Father Maples, do you want us to capture this thing's body for you?"

"Yes."

"Is this the transport ship you're talking about?"

"Yes." Father Maples's face was not red, and his heart was not beating, if he had two things left.

"What support can you provide us?"

"No, the only thing left has sunk in the sea."

"Then why do you ask us to help you? This is not something that can be done easily."

Father Mapes stamped his foot, his heart pounded, and thrust a screen into Yifeng's face.

"Father Maples, this is very rude, please...fuck you." Yifeng was almost scared out of his native language.

"Okay, Father Mapes, I will try my best to help you. Do you mind if these corpses are broken up a little? Well, if not, is it acceptable to be burnt? What do you mean by reluctantly? Okay, okay, I will try my best. Done."

——————————————————————————————————

The Red Torrent Battle Group began to work. To be precise, they gathered in the large conference hall to hold a meeting. Yifeng organized all Astartes and new recruits to attend the meeting.

The main question now is, how can we defeat such a big thing? The high-orbit bombing of warships seems to be unable to accurately attack the enemy at such a depth. Now the birdserver scan shows that this giant beast has penetrated 11 kilometers into the ocean, and is still In constant movement.

The second problem is the uncertainty of the performance of many weapons in the sea, especially in the deep sea, including the shortened range of melta guns, and it is difficult for plasma guns and ion pistols to cause substantial damage.

The essence of a melt weapon is actually very simple. It is to throw out a special substance that is undergoing a nuclear reaction, causing super high temperature damage.

The essence of ion weapons is to accelerate a bunch of ion streams and then spray them out.

Obviously, being in the water will shorten the range and reduce the power.

At the same time, the surrounding waters will also be overheated and have unique chemical reactions, which are also dangerous for the Astartes.

There's nothing wrong with the bolter, it's just that it's not powerful enough.

There is no Nova Cannon. The Victory-class battleship should have been kept at that time. Now there is no need to think so much, it can be done with one shot.

The enemy continues to swim towards the deep sea.

Yifeng ordered to deal with this giant beast first and turn the battleship upside down? There comes a volley of light spears.

It's a bit strange. Now in the gravity orbit of this planet, this means that most people have to step on the ceiling, although there is no up, down, left or right in space.

The consequences of this are also obvious. A considerable part of the sea will evaporate, and the scorching sea water will be enough to turn this area into a pot of fish soup.

Well, it seems to be okay. With current technology, cooked fish can also be made into protein bars.

Fish: You are very polite. Thank you very much.

Come on, three moon-class cruisers turned the battleship over, and the original "observatory" became a "transparent floor" under your feet, allowing you to observe this blue planet.

A Mechanicus dispersing bolt disperses the clouds surrounding the entire area, which greatly weaken the power of the light spear.

All light spear arrays began to charge, aiming at the "big fish" already at a depth of 16 kilometers.

Hopefully Father Maples thinks the charred body is still useable.

The light spear was launched, and a huge beam of light fell from the sky, directly hitting the enemy on the seabed. This weapon, rarely used to attack the surface of a planet, is still very powerful.

A large circle of "steamed" empty areas appeared on the sea, and even water decomposed into hydrogen and oxygen, and then continued to react in an extremely unstable state. (The actual temperature is about 4,000 degrees, and water can be decomposed, although in theory, more than 2,000 degrees is sufficient)

The sea received a terrifying attack, and a large area of ​​golden light appeared. The seawater refracted the dazzling light of the light spear, and then the temperature rose sharply.

The light spear accurately hit this Leviathan-class deep-sea behemoth. Although it penetrated a large amount of sea water and reduced the power of the light spear, it was a salvo fired by three moon-class cruisers.

Visible to the naked eye, the entire skin of the giant beast turned into red lava.

Then...he wandered away with nothing to do, wandered away, left,...

What the hell, someone else's warship was attacked at this level, and the void shield shook several times, but you actually managed to withstand it with your own body and walked away with a flick of your tail?

Father Maps's eyes lit up. What kind of treasure is this? If this is understood through research, wouldn't all of our battleships have Tyranid mothership-level defenses with void shields?

Or does it have something to do with the Tyranids?

Not only that, the previous scanning of the bird servant could not penetrate the inner armor of this monster, which is also an important technology worth studying.

Big baby.

Father Mapes seemed to see himself creating a super-hard space battleship that could avoid the detection of enemy bird servants.

Being remembered in history is not enough to describe his achievements. He may become another legend of the Mechanicus.

Wow, when a group of mechanical apprentices saw me in the future, they gathered around me enthusiastically, and I said lightly: "Don't be obsessed with me, he is just a legend." It feels good to think about it.

The eyes of the other Mechanicus staff also lit up. They thought it was a boring mission, but they didn't expect there would be an unexpected gain.

Anyway, the failure of the previous transport ship had nothing to do with the people on our frigate, and we don't have to bear the responsibility, but now we have to find a way to get some of this good thing.

For a time, the Mechanicus personnel were "vigorous with fighting spirit" and asked to go down with the Red Torrent Chapter... and support the Astartes from a distance.

Yifeng fell into a familiar but not completely familiar rhythm. Could this thing be used as a cosmic biological battleship of the Tyranids?

However, since the Red Torrent Chapter has never encountered those terrifying enemies, it has no experience in this area.

I have only seen the Great Devourer - the vanguard of the Tyranids, the gene stealers. They were too hungry and couldn't find anything to eat. Naturally, they would not send out psychic signals to let the Tyranids come over.

No, the light spear is too weakened by the sea water. Try using a torpedo.

Of course they are not whirlpool torpedoes, but ordinary space torpedoes. These torpedoes are enough to cause heavy damage to a cruiser.

The space torpedo equipped with a slowing device was launched into the deep sea. It headed towards the deep sea at an extremely fast speed, and the turbid water could not stop its progress.

The giant beast felt something flying very fast from behind, and it used its usual counterattack - flicking its tail.

The water flow driven by the tail deflects the direction of the torpedo.

Seen from above, the violent machine spirit was thrown away by the even more violent giant tail and flew into the deep sea. Then there was a violent explosion, and the shock wave moved the entire beast hundreds of meters to the left.

Then, the giant beast swam away as if nothing happened, and left...

The giant beast in front of me is a bit tough. Can this huge thing jump into a gang?

Astartes' usual thinking, should this thing just rush in and blow its brains out?

Well, there is no subspace teleportation method. Only battle barges and strike cruisers can be equipped with this kind of thing. Moon-class cruisers do not have it. There are similar devices on the Terminator armor, but we don’t have many Terminators. Our own think tank still sleeping......

Yifeng hates using subspace to teleport to gangs. This is from his earliest subspace gang jumping, attacking the ancient giant trash of Mistempor. At that time, Yifeng saw the man who was affected by waaaagh energy and caused the teleportation position to shift. The captain of the Storm Will Chapter died in the wall. He felt deeply sad. This veteran, a brave warrior who could have fought on the battlefield, passed away like this.

As for psykers, their specialization is actually very serious. You cannot learn various psionic powers once you become powerful. Although most think tanks can release psychic smite, their responsibilities are clear.

Some people can see mysterious "future revelations" like prophets, and some people can create matter, from simple flames and lightning to physical matter. Of course, they have to pay different prices. Some people can teleport, and some can Using psychic energy to move objects, some people can heal living organisms like doctors, although the reverse treatment is equally deadly.

These are more like a person's talent rather than a school of spells that can be learned.

Without the help of subspace, then don’t consider the option of joining a gang.

Suddenly, Yifeng remembered a mission target that he didn't care much about.

"Way? Father Mapes, did you say before that this huge deep-sea monster had several teeth blown off by the explosion of the transport ship, and it was more than a hundred meters long?"

"Yes, Captain Yifeng, if possible, can you collect these teeth for us?"

"That's not the point, Father Mapes. Can you indicate the location of the dislodged teeth of this giant beast?"

"Is it a specific location on the giant beast's body?"

"Yes".

Okay, Astartes, let's get to work. Let's allocate the gathering place and don't mess around.

Bolt guns are basically not carried. This kind of thing is not even scratching the itch for such a huge behemoth. It is not easy for 60 Astartes to carry melta bombs that can blast through the enemy. .

Everyone carried four large-yield melta bombs, and then an emergency power sword. Just in case, everyone installed the undersea combat accessories left by the Angel of Dawn, including those directly connected to the power backpack. Turbine propellers and enhanced emergency oxygen extraction devices can extract trace amounts of oxygen from water.

These turbines located on the lower side of the power pack are also connected to the jetpack located on the upper side of the power pack. For a moment, the Astartes looked a bit like a red turtle.

The four "claws" on the back of the backpack will also consume a lot of energy from the power backpack and the warrior's physical strength. The entire energy system may not last for two days, but the plan does not plan to take that long.

This batch of recruits will be the first batch of survival Astartes. They are now wearing power armor and temporarily organized into the eleventh company. After this assessment, they can become real Astartes warriors.

Yifeng was like the leader of the German-Italian Chapter back then, inspecting the status of each soldier. Most of them were eager to try. For veterans who have wandered between life and death countless times, this way of getting through the first crisis is basically enough. A successful combat plan is already quite "safe". Most of them check their weapons carefully, and some of them are "pacifying the machine soul".

The recruits were very excited. This was their first battle wearing power armor. They would remember this day forever. This day was their final assessment.

It was a risky operation, but a good raid.

The frigate ventured lower, casting a shadow of its body on the sea to confuse the enemy.

The light spears were fired continuously, trying to anger this huge deep-sea monster so that it would return to the sea and bite these battleships as the unlucky transport ship like before.

Intensive attacks finally enraged the enemy.

I just want to sleep honestly in the sea. If you have any grudge against me, I will have a big beam of light come out from time to time.

I have been the king of this sea for so many years, and I have never been bullied like this.

This Leviathan-level monster realized that over time, as the injuries slowly accumulated, it could turn into an attack that threatened its life.

The Astartes are divided into three teams and are carried in low-altitude aircraft. They will attack when the enemy approaches.

The decoy carrier capsule was dropped directly above the behemoth and is now firing fiercely. Its firepower can only cause effective damage when it is close to the enemy. It has only one function, correcting the enemy's advance route. This gang-hopping operation is very dangerous. , as long as the enemy's attack is a little off (for this behemoth), it will be a devastating mistake for the Astartes.

The giant beast was getting closer and closer to the water, and a large amount of artillery fire began to attack its body, tearing cracks one after another on its outer skin that had just been melted into lava.

It finally started to bleed, and it wasn't an invincible existence.

It was impossible for the soldiers not to be nervous as they sat on the low-altitude aircraft. Even if they were bitten hard, they would die.

The enemy below has gotten close enough, and the torpedo has been launched. This time it is a real torpedo. This ancient weapon quickly approaches the enemy. The violent and furious machine spirit controls the torpedo and roars at the enemy.

The giant beast keeps swimming upwards, as if it is accumulating speed. Every time the one-kilometer-long fin slides, it can form powerful ocean turbulence.

Pia!(o ‵-′)ノ”(ノ﹏＜.)

The torpedo was blown away by the fins at once, and there was no telling where it would explode.

Approaching the water, the frigate began to raise its altitude and adjust its position. Before leaving, the frigate dropped several bombs, or variations of mines.

It will explode a hundred meters underwater. According to Gu Terra's standards, it is almost a depth bomb, but for this 42K world with extremely advanced warfare technology, it can only be regarded as scratching the enemy's itch.

The mines exploded one after another, not stopping the giant beast from moving forward at all. The enemy jumped out of the water at a terrifying speed. The huge mouth opened again and bit into the projection of the frigate in the sky.

"Now, come on."

The soldiers did not hesitate, jumped down from the aircraft, and jumped straight into the enemy's mouth.

The jetpack was activated and divided into three groups in the air, flying to the target area accurately.

Who wouldn't be able to jump into a mouth with a radius of one kilometer? But you have to pay attention to the landing point, otherwise you will become a melon seed sent to the enemy's mouth.

All the warriors successfully entered the enemy's maw.

The Ocean Overlord closed its big mouth hard, not biting the enemy, which made him extremely angry, but there was nothing he could do.

It continued to turn around and swim toward the deep sea.
