Captain, your ship has exploded again.
Chapter 578 The Risky Leap
At this moment, a large number of assault craft in space are attacking each other and looking for opportunities to crash into each other's warships.
"Holy crap, Marcus, are you sure you're okay?"
No matter how much the Fearclaw is upgraded, it's still just a drop pod, and in terms of performance, it can't compare to the VF at all.
However, due to the previous ground and space battles, Zhang Xun's side had lost a large number of fighter jets, and at this moment, their number of fighter jets was at a significant disadvantage.
"Damn it! Why don't you drive? With those two iron chicken feet of yours, you can't even wipe your butt after using the toilet, and you want to take the driver's seat from me?"
Due to the urgency of the situation, Wang Ge's prosthetic limbs were provided by the Cult of the Machine God. Since they couldn't carry any high-end equipment on the battlefield, Wang Ge's prosthetic limbs were more like two iron claws than arms.
Even if Wang Ge's arms weren't two iron claws, given his status as a mobile soldier, he wouldn't be much stronger than Marcus.
However, for safety reasons, Wang Ge and his team returned in two separate airdrop capsules.
"No, I told Kang Yuanhang before that this thing is a missile, and you have to say it's 'authentic'."
"Alright, now only one laser cannon is usable."
Isaac, who was operating the turret, said, "Don't interfere with me! One slip and we'll be boarding the enemy assault boat."
Just then, an out-of-control enemy assault boat crashed into the Fear Claw, the violent impact causing Wang Ge and his men to veer off course.
The tumbling drop pod caused Marcus and Isaac to temporarily lose control of the equipment.
"Damn it, we can't get in touch with Zhang Xun either. We should at least send one or two fighter jets to escort him!"
Wang Ge tried to contact Zhang Xun multiple times, but due to the chaotic energy and various interferences, all that came through the communication was the whisper of demons and endless noise.
Zhang Xun, who was already stationed on the Death Star, was not in a good situation at the moment.
A large number of Chaos soldiers were brutally teleported into the Death Star by Abaddon.
Because the enemy hadn't figured out the Death Star's structure, their teleportation was completely haphazard.
Many Chaos soldiers were either embedded in the walls or had already become a mass of flesh and blood when the energy turbulence transmitted them.
"Alarm, alarm, intrusion detected in Sector C, Unit 121. All surrounding defense forces are requested to proceed to clear the intrusion."
Inside the command center, Tajin was wrapped in bandages; Zhang Xun had returned a little too late.
Whether it was Tarkin and Zemo's bad luck or their opponents' good fortune, a unit of Chaos Cultists was teleported into the command room.
The young and strong Baron Zemo pushed Tarkin away before the enemy opened fire.
Zemo successfully delayed the enemy before reinforcements arrived, preventing the command center from suffering excessive damage.
However, Zemo was not good at fighting and his power armor was pierced by the opponent.
Because Zemo and others were commanders, Zhao Wanyang prioritized the production of his armor over others when manufacturing the armor. This meant that Zemo, wearing ordinary power armor, never had a chance to unleash his full power in Warhammer.
When the medic rescued Zemo, he was barely alive except for his mind.
If he could be put into the medical pod now, it would only be a matter of time before the medics could revive Zemo. However, the enemy's chaotic attack has damaged the medical pod as well.
Left with no other choice, the medic cut off Zemo's head and temporarily placed it in his portable medical kit.
Zemo, who has lost his physical body, survives entirely thanks to the life support system attached to his head.
If Zhang Xun hadn't arrived in time, the Death Star command system would have been destroyed by the enemy.
"Wang Ge and the others are over there, and we need their support. First, send back a ten-man elite marine corps team. Even if they have problems with teleportation, get some men for me!"
Zhang Xun currently only has ordinary power armor, while Natal, who has specially made armor, tries her best to protect Zhang Xun while counterattacking.
Tarkin, operating the control panel, said, "The Xiang sisters' signal has appeared inside the Death Star. I'm directing them to the command center. There's no news from Wang Ge."
Because of the failure of Void Claw, Abaddon frantically ordered the fleet to attack Zhang Xun and his group. At near-instantaneous combat, the warships' external communications were completely disrupted.
The disordered subspace teleportation within the Death Star made quantum teleportation within the ship extremely dangerous.
Due to the technology inside Zhang Xun's warship that blocks jumps, the blocking effect on deep space jumps like those in subspace, which carry enormous energy during the jump, is negligible. This makes quantum teleportation severely interfered with.
Even if the Xiang sisters returned to the Death Star, they would have to walk to get to the command center.
Fortunately, the two were speed-type mobile soldiers, and if nothing unexpected happened, they would be able to return to the command room soon.
"We can't just sit here and wait to die. Use the traction beam to hold the Vengeance Soul in place. I need to move the battlefield out of the Vigilant Star's gravitational pull."
"Starkiller Cannon in low-power warm-up mode."
Despite its length of over 20 kilometers, the Vengeance Soul is just a child compared to the Death Star II, which is 200 kilometers long.
Even with the help of three Black Legion warships, the Vengeance Spirit dared not easily use its ram to attack the Death Star II.
Despite its seemingly powerful ramming tactic, no captain dared to use it due to the severe imbalance in tonnage (except for Zhang Xun).
If ramming tactics are to be used, the rams mounted directly on the keel will cause the warship to disintegrate upon impact.
Even someone with only an elementary school education knows that forces are reciprocal, and without any way to deflect the force, a reckless collision will only result in the loss of the warship.
The existence of the Death Star gave Abaddon a feeling of being like a fox trying to bite a turtle, but having no way to get a grip.
At this point, Abaddon's Death Star II had almost lost all its turrets.
The relentless fighting led to the removal of almost all of the more than 50,000 artillery emplacements, leaving only a few that were no longer of any use in the overall battle.
However, the Death Star II's formidable defensive capabilities in the past gave Abaddon the idea of taking down the enemy.
The Vengeance Soul was also badly damaged, but with teammates taking the hits, it still had 20% of its macro cannons and a light spear remaining.
With the final orange defensive force field broken, the Death Star in front of the Vengeance Soul completely lost all its energy shields.
"Haven't you determined the location of the enemy's command center yet?"
Abaddon was getting a little impatient. The wound under his arm constantly reminded him that he needed to deal with this enemy as soon as possible. The enemy's fighting spirit was too strong, and if it dragged on, things might change.
But Abaddon was somewhat unwilling to give up the meat that was already in his mouth.
"Load a Cyclone torpedo and get this damn outer shell open. I want to see if they'll still fight back without their outer armor!"
If the nuclear torpedoes in Star Trek and Macross have reaction powers of 83 and 79 respectively, then the Cyclone torpedoes in Warhammer have a reaction power of 91.
If the former two rely on increased nuclear reaction efficiency, then Warhammer relies on sheer numbers.
It's not that the human empire in Warhammer was technologically backward, but rather that most of their weapons were extremely large.
This may be related to their enemies, who have made the Ork and Tyranid warships so ridiculously large.
As a Cyclone torpedo struck the Death Star armor, the already tattered outer armor was instantly torn apart.
On a sphere with a diameter of 200 kilometers, a crater five kilometers in size appeared instantly.
However, since Warhammer boarding operations typically utilize broadsides, this attack did not include the Scarred Starkiller Cannon.
The surrender signal that Abaddon had anticipated did not appear; instead, the Death Star began to withdraw.
However, now that the Death Star's defenses have developed a breach, he is even less likely to let it escape.
Just as he was giving the order with a ferocious expression to have the escort ship ram into the breach, the enormous object in front of him vanished.
To be precise, it was a deliberate entry into subspace for a jump.
Abaddon, his face darkening, looked at the Death Star and said, "Since you insist on struggling, then I will finish you off!"
