Warhammer: From the Devouring C'tan Fragments

"Captain Lilith, when can we continue our offensive? Rescue our suffering compatriots from the corrupt empire and liberate more galaxies."

Lilith commanded the cruiser Invincible War God, four frigates and eight destroyers, and continued to patrol outside the Kuiper Belt. This place is very close to Mandeville Point. The geographical location here is very important and can easily destroy any warships of hostile forces that jump out of the subspace.

Today is another ordinary patrol day. Today is the day when Lilith leads her fleet on patrol. The figures of the other twelve captains are projected on the bridge of Lilith's Invincible War Cruiser.

One of the men, who had just become a destroyer captain less than two years ago, asked Lilith about his doubts. The destroyer captain's tone was full of desire for war, and he would only be promoted if he made meritorious contributions.

"What's the rush? There are still so many battleships and cruisers that haven't been launched yet. Now is not the right time to start a war with the corrupt Empire. We should crush the Imperial Navy with our absolute strength. Using our advantages to attack the enemy's weaknesses is what a qualified captain should consider."

Lilith, who had been concentrating on staring at the holographic projection information scanned by the radar on the cruiser, heard the question from her captain and spoke calmly.

Lilith now is no longer the ignorant little girl from more than 20 years ago. Now wearing white power armor and standing at 2.7 meters tall, Lilith is full of heroic spirit. Her face does not show that she is in her 40s at all. She looks like a girl who has just turned 20.

"I just think this boring patrol is pointless. In all these years, I haven't encountered any Imperial merchant ships or naval warships sailing out of Mandeville Point. Only three years ago, an Imperial tax collection ship jumped out of Mandeville Point, but it was sunk by the fleet led by Captain Tulas. The Xinghai System is not in danger at all."

The destroyer captain said helplessly that no Imperial Navy fleet had entered the Xinghai Galaxy for so many years, which made many people feel a little regretful, as they felt that they had no place to use their skills at all.

"Shut up! Our navy's duty is to protect the security of the galaxy and prevent hostile warships from entering and causing damage. Don't even think about how you've only been patrolling for two years. We should have you continue patrolling the Xinghai galaxy for another twenty years.

We are not in any danger right now, but if any hostile forces were to enter the system and cause damage, even if you were shot a hundred times, it would not be enough to compensate for the damage caused by your carelessness."

Lilith looked at the destroyer captain seriously, her eyes extremely stern.

The destroyer captain, stared at sternly by Lilith, lowered his head in shame and quietly admitted his mistake, "Yes, Captain Lilith, I know I was wrong."

"It's good that you know you were wrong." Lilith nodded with satisfaction, and looked at the other captains. She found that these captains were looking at the holographic projection in front of them with serious expressions. It was impossible to tell that these people were concentrating on listening to Lilith's scolding.

"Continue patrolling." Lilith gave the order loudly.

"Yes."

More than a dozen warships continued to patrol the outer periphery of the Kuiper Belt, keeping an eye on Mandeville Point with radar.

"Beep beep, the Xinghai Galaxy is under invasion."

A shrill alarm suddenly sounded in the fleet that was patrolling near Mandeville Point. Lilith, who was in charge of commanding the entire fleet, hurriedly looked at the holographic projection in front of her, only to see more than 30 warships suddenly jumping out from the Mandeville Point position.

The overall appearance of these warships is somewhat similar to the warships developed by the Lord of Stars, but the huge church on the top of the warship allows Lilith to recognize at a glance that it is an Imperial Navy warship.

There were also several warships whose decorations and paint schemes were somewhat different from those of the Imperial Navy warships. While Lilith was still carefully looking at the warships that appeared, the AI ​​on the Invincible War God cruiser had already analyzed the other party's identity.

"The identity of the other party has been confirmed. They are Imperial Navy warships, Astartes Chapter battle barges, and Mechanicus warships." The cold, mechanical electronic voice of the intelligent al was heard in the bridge.

"Attack, all warships, attack the invaders and destroy them all." Lilith, who was reminded, shouted in the fleet communication channel.

"Yes."

The fleet, which had been patrolling idly, began to operate in an orderly manner under Lilith's command, and urgent alarms sounded in all facilities in the Xinghai galaxy.

The battleship led by Lilith quickly changed direction and aimed its side at the battleship that jumped out from Mandeville Point. The giant light spears, macro cannons, and plasma cannons on the battleship opened fire at the Imperial battleship.

Countless lights suddenly lit up in the dark universe, illuminating the dark and deep void, and countless energy attacks attacked the imperial fleet.

The naval fleet that had just jumped out from Mandeville Point suddenly sounded countless shrill alarms.

"Ding ding, the battleship is locked. Ding ding"

"Defend, defend, activate all void shields to defend against attacks."

Kratos had just come back to his senses from the chaotic subspace when he heard the servo skull installed inside the battleship constantly sounding alarms, reminding him that his fleet had been locked by the enemy. Kratos had no time to check the situation first and could only yell in the communication channel of the bridge.

When the heads of various departments in the Imperial Navy heard the orders from their superiors, they had no time to think about why they were attacked just after jumping out of the warp, and they just acted instinctively.

The military skills of these Imperial Navy fleet crew members are extremely experienced. The crew members responsible for maintaining the shield quickly closed the Geller position and activated the large void shield defense warship.

Countless fierce attacks landed on the void shield, causing the newly activated void shield to tremble continuously. Although no sound could be transmitted in the void, these experienced crew members could still imagine that if these attacks had landed on the battleship, the entire battleship would have been sunk by this intensive attack.

"Fight back, fight back! These evil heretics actually dared to attack us."

Kratos shouted orders from the bridge.

Although Kratos had not had time to check the images sent back by the auspicious instrument, he still gave his own orders based on his years of experience in commanding fleets.

"Yes."

The Imperial Navy's light spears, macro cannons, and torpedoes, operated by the crew, attacked Lilith's fleet one after another.

"Pull the boat over to me."

In a battle barge, the Chapter Master of the Astartes Chapter loudly gave his orders.

"Yes."
