The strongest astral army in Warhammer 40K

Pleasant days are always fleeting.

A few days later, Kayans received an order.

"Let's quell the rebellion!" Kayans said calmly.

“Great, I’ve been bored for ages!” Russell said happily.

"However, this time it's a little different; we're dealing with demi-humans."

"A demi-human?" Russell frowned slightly; he had never fought against a demi-human before.

“Some half-human, half-beast creatures are fierce and brutal, constantly attacking the local people’s territory. The local people are still in a primitive state and use cold weapons. They are no match for these monsters, so they asked for our help.”

"Which department issued the task?"

"I don't know, but let's not think about that. Since we have a mission to eliminate them, let's eliminate them."

Russell nodded and asked, "When do we depart?"

"Get ready in the next few days."

Russell took out his Fire Kirin gun and looked at it from left to right, wondering when it would finally be upgraded to the second stage.

There was one frustrating thing: he couldn't see through the system how many enemies the Fire Kirin had killed. He estimated it to be around seven thousand, but he didn't know the exact number.

He hopes that this battle with the demi-humans will allow the Fire Kirin to upgrade to the second stage.

He gained a lot from the last battle with the orcs, acquiring a total of 9 "Super Armor" items. Although his height increased by less than one centimeter, his muscles underwent significant changes, with more defined muscle lines and increased hardness.

With the added boost from several other attributes, his physical abilities have far surpassed his former self.

He's no match for the orc boy in a one-on-one fight with brute force. But if he uses some skill, defeating an orc boy shouldn't be a problem. And against an ordinary person, he'd have a much bigger advantage.

The "Crimson" has docked in orbit around planet 52A.

A massive Thunder Eagle troop transport aircraft slowly took off.

The Thunder Eagle troop transport aircraft flew over mountains and rivers to a city and then slowly landed.

Through the glass window, Russell could see the scenery outside, and everything outside gave him a sense of déjà vu.

After the Thunderhawk transport aircraft landed, a hiss of air pressure followed, and the hatch opened. Kayans, Russell, and two thousand Cardia commandos emerged in neat rows.

An elderly man in a long robe walked over with a smile.

He looked at Kayan, who was walking at the front, and asked: "Excuse me, are you the commander of this team?"

Kayans felt that the old man was strange but could not figure out his identity. He said: I am Captain Kayans, the commander of this unit. May I ask who you are?

“My name is Mazles, an ordinary missionary of the state religion.”

Upon hearing the words "state religion," Kayans immediately stood at attention and saluted, saying: "So you are a missionary. Kayans pays his respects to you."

Mazels quickly waved his hand and said, "Captain Kayans, don't be so polite. You don't need to salute me. It was I who requested your support from the State Church. The Imperial people living here are suffering from the persecution of the demi-humans. I cannot stand by and watch them suffer, so I hope the Astral Army can help the humans here."

Kayans assured him: "Sir Missionary, we will do everything we can to help you and the people here."

Maziers smiled and nodded, saying, "That's wonderful, Captain. We need to go see the king here."

Kayans turned and glanced at Russell, saying, "I'm leaving things here to you."

Russell nodded and said: Go ahead!

Kayans and the missionary Mazels went to see the king.

Russell directed the assault team to settle down.

The city dwellers had never seen a modern army like the Cardia Commandos before, so they were all very curious and gathered around to watch.

Two commandos tried to disperse the crowd, but Russell stopped them, saying: Let them see!

About two hours later, Kayans and Maziers returned to the place under the protection of a captain of spearmen.

"Did you see the King?" Russell asked.

"The old king was terrified and didn't say anything of value," Kayans said calmly.

The missionary Mazels said: "During this time, the aerial warriors of the demi-humans, the crow people, have frequently attacked us. These beasts are not only excellent fliers, but they can also shoot arrows, making them extremely difficult opponents. Now, everyone in the city is terrified of the crow people, and the old king must be terrified of them."

"Forget about that corrupt old king. Let's prepare to fight the Arakkoa. This city needs confidence now." Kayans felt that to gain the old king's support, they needed to win a decisive battle first.

Fortunately, the city's defense general trusted Mazles and agreed to allow the Cadia commandos to patrol the city walls.

Kayans divided the Kadia commandos into two groups of one thousand men each. He led one thousand men himself, and Russell led one thousand men, who patrolled day and night.

Russell stood on the city wall and looked out of the city. Outside the city was a large forest, and in the forest was a lake. At this moment, the lake water was rippling and shimmering with silver light.

"The scenery here is really beautiful!" Kayans exclaimed.

Russell glanced at him and said, "Yes, this place is far superior to those hive worlds."

"It would be wonderful to live a peaceful life here for the rest of my life!"

Russell frowned and said: "Your thinking is dangerous!"

Kayans chuckled and said: Just kidding. We are the Astral Army, of course we can't forget our responsibilities. No matter how good this place is, how good can it be without our protection?

Russell laughed: "It makes us sound like saviors."

"We really are saviors. Once the Emperor's angels appear, this planet will most likely be doomed."

Russell also agreed with Cayans's point, saying: "This may be the meaning of our existence."

Have you ever seen a crow-man?

Russell shook his head and said: No, could it be someone who looks like a crow?

"Whoever it is, they can't be invulnerable to bullets and blades. As long as they're within range of our laser guns, it'll be easy to handle." Kayans raised his laser gun and made a firing motion.

“I think the Crowmen’s attack is imminent,” Russell guessed.

“These guys will soon run into a brick wall!” Kayans sneered.

Russell was half asleep when he heard someone shout: "The crows are coming! Run!"

Russell was suddenly jolted awake and quickly stood up, grabbing the Fire Kirin and the Blood Drinker as he rushed out of the tent.

The Star Guardians had already opened fire from the city walls, beams of laser light shooting into the sky.

The crows had no idea that the defenders, who had been on the defensive all along, could fire lasers, and that the lasers were incredibly powerful.

Several unsuspecting crowmen were shot through the body and fell down.

Russell quickly reached the top of the city wall. A crowman was about to shoot an arrow at a commando when Russell pulled the trigger. A laser beam shot out, and the crowman screamed and fell to the ground.
