As long as you die, you are invincible, but in 40K

However, those screens and dashboards seemed to have normal values ​​but did not respond to any operations, and they had no way to convey this unexpected situation to the outside world.

Moreover, let alone pulling the lever, even the lock of the self-defense weapon next to the driver's seat was stuck. They couldn't even break the window. They could only watch as the fighter plane took off strangely on its own, then blended into the formation, and now began to rush downwards.

She fell straight to the ground, seemingly about to fall, but when she sank into the buildings and reached the street, she suddenly began to level out and changed her direction with unimaginable maneuverability.

Its tail almost dragged on the ground, and the scorching wake swept the road, completely stopping the fuselage's falling momentum just before it hit the ground, and then it shot across the street like an arrow, less than one meter above the ground.

The powerful airflow brought by supersonic speed directly threw a lot of dust and debris to both sides, and the sound waves following the fighter plane pushed past the ears of the people hiding in the windows on both sides like a train running over their ears.

Flying close to the ground at several times the speed of sound in a war zone full of obstacles when all avionics should have been lost sounds like something that would happen in a storybook, but it actually happened at this moment.

At the end of the road, two corrupted Leman Russ tanks parked side by side noticed the rapidly expanding object in the distance.

The two of them, who grew up with the driver, couldn't quite comprehend the situation, and even wondered if they were hallucinating.

If I'm not mistaken, that's a Valkyrie?

But they didn't have time to react because the thing was moving too fast.

Without special design, based on the limit of ordinary human reaction ability, even the top sports cars would only be able to travel at a practical speed of 500 to 600 kilometers per hour, which is already unimaginably fast.

But her speed is more than ten times higher than this.

The seemingly long distance of two to three thousand meters could be passed directly in just a few seconds. By the time the two Leman Russ tanks realized that the thing was really a fighter plane, it was already too late.

At that moment, time seemed to slow down. The Valkyrie did not dodge or evade. She slightly raised her altitude as if it was natural and turned the fuselage sideways.

The wingtips swept close to the ground, and the sideways wing passed between the two Leman Russ tanks. The Imperial Skyhawk paint on it seemed to be mocking the slowness of the two Leman Russ tanks.

All the lifting airflow and air resistance became nothing as the fighter plane continued to increase its thrust. The sonic booms and shock waves brought by the roaring engines and nozzles brutally bombarded every place in its path.

With her speed increasing, she left her colleagues far behind and took the lead in approaching the wreckage of the warship.

His eyes turned to the battleship.

Although it had crashed and been bombarded by electromagnetic pulses, it was a space battleship after all, and its protection was extremely good. Under such circumstances, its remaining anti-aircraft firepower could still operate normally without being affected by interference. This was also the most dangerous part that needed to be broken through in the plan.

These huge warships are often measured in kilometers in length and are covered with large and small anti-aircraft guns, ranging from some small-caliber macro cannons to various anti-aircraft missiles and chain-tube anti-aircraft guns with a firing rate of easily tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of rounds per minute.

They are unable to participate in the overall air defense due to the obstruction of the tall buildings around the crash site, but if any enemy tries to break through the near-line defense, these anti-aircraft firepower will become the most deadly strike weapon.

Even if the fleet had decoy aircraft, they were prepared to suffer heavy casualties.

However, now, the fighter plane did not dodge or evade and rushed directly towards this fatal area.

Chapter 103 Air Cavalry

The first to respond to the incoming object were the anti-aircraft missiles, and they had already responded long before the Valkyrie reached the open space around the ship.

Those parts stuck together with flesh and blood turned each transmitter into an independent living entity. Although they were keen to eat one or two cultists who approached rashly from time to time, they were also able to respond to threats on their own and with extremely fast speed.

In the fire control radar, whose scanning range was originally blocked by layers of ceramic steel buildings, a bright spot that made no secret of its existence entered the edge of its observable circle and approached at high speed.

The anti-aircraft missile launch components eager for prey let out excited hums or howls. From the launchers distributed throughout the ship, from the holes wrapped in tender meat, dozens of anti-aircraft missiles of different sizes flew out with flames and trails.

They first flew level for a short distance after leaving the gun, and then made the first turn under the action of the attitude adjustment nozzle, turning towards the sky with a straight vertical trajectory. When they rose to a certain height, they made the second turn, pointing the guidance head downward.

He locked onto the Valkyrie that was flying rapidly between the buildings.

Dozens of small bright spots appeared in the dark sky.

Normally, an airplane cannot be more maneuverable than a missile and can only rely on heat decoy or other deflection methods.

Within the atmosphere, these little creatures can easily fly overloads of hundreds of Gs, and even the Empire's aircraft's crazy maneuvers are useless.

But it was obvious that this Valkyrie was not normal.

She did not choose to maneuver, but she also did not choose to launch a heat-seeking missile. Instead, when the missile approached, she rolled 180 degrees and turned into an inverted flight, with her belly facing up.

This also made the multi-barrel laser cannon point upwards.

As the charged red light lit up, in an instant, the first laser hit the front missile without error. Amid the explosion, the first fireball lit up against the backdrop of the sky.

Following closely behind were dozens of equally precise lasers that hit the incoming projectiles at once, turning dozens of missiles into fireworks in the sky.

This interception method...can only be said to be feasible in theory - physical theory.

However, since it really appeared in the real universe, the other party would not be shocked.

Launching dozens of anti-aircraft missiles at once is not the limit of a warship's air defense system, but at the Valkyrie's extreme speed, since the first wave of missiles were all intercepted because they "underestimated" her, there is no point in launching a second wave of missiles.

Because the time left is not enough for the missiles to complete the process from acceleration to locking and pursuing the enemy, they can only rely on those close-range interception weapons.

The moment she flew out of the street, the Valkyrie did a barrel roll upwards while flying backwards. Her trajectory looked like an inverted number six. She used the short charging time of energy weapons to avoid several intercepting laser cannons that were aimed at her original position.

At the same time, when maneuvering, the onboard fire control system accurately locates the gun barrels that have just fired lasers and whose residual heat has not yet dissipated.

The counterattack red light spewed out from the multi-barreled laser cannon and hit the barrel of the intercepting laser cannon, melting and blocking the fragile component and temporarily eliminating its threat.

After the barrel roll, the fuselage has returned to the straight position, but not completely.

Because at the end of the maneuver, the Valkyrie turned on the hover mode. Although this did not reduce her speed in the short term, it allowed the fuselage to complete a 180-degree turn without spending time on a turning maneuver, swapping the head and tail.

Although the firing rate of the close-in weapon system is extremely fast, the projectile speed is naturally far less than that of the laser weapon. Facing high-speed targets requires a lot of advance calculations.

This makes dodging these weapons relatively simple—just keep changing your speed.

After the nose and tail exchanged, the thrust in opposite directions plus the air resistance caused the fighter's speed to drop suddenly, causing a large number of close-in defense guns to fire in advance and miss the target.

Generally speaking, this kind of air combat tactic is counterintuitive. After all, in air combat, too much energy loss is almost the same as death.

But now the thrust of this Valkyrie is so abnormally strong that she can easily make up for the lost energy, just like an investor with unlimited funds in the stock market, performing all kinds of acceleration and deceleration maneuvers as she pleases without warning, and can even continue to approach the hull under such circumstances.

In the night, the two tail flames drew a desperate trajectory, like a soul not bound by physics, or a casually scribbled pen tip. Dozens of dense light chains tried to touch its body, but it was in vain.

However, the anti-aircraft macro cannon is now ready.

These large-caliber anti-aircraft guns are generally used to target assault boats that are tens or even hundreds of meters long, but after being replaced with special anti-aircraft bullets, they are also quite effective against small flies.

At least that's what the macro cannon operators thought at the time.

This thought continued until another miracle occurred.

Before describing that miracle, a brief introduction to the macro cannon's anti-aircraft shells is necessary.

Unlike ordinary proximity fuses, this type of artillery shell uses a delayed fuse. It will only explode when the timer returns to zero and it flies to the calculated position, so that it will not be detonated by any bait meat shield that blocks the way.

Anyway, an error of several tens of meters is the same as no error for weapons of this caliber, and using a proximity fuze will only increase the risk of interception.

However, this also leads to a problem - if I fly directly towards the cannonball and miss it, how should you respond?

When the roar of the macro cannon and the flash of orange light were spit out together, a huge cannonball hit the Valkyrie in the sky.

But just like her unusual behavior in the face of the missile at the beginning, the Valkyrie now made another decision that was different from that of an ordinary person.

She pushed forward with full force towards the direction the shell was coming from, and in that instant, she almost brushed past the high-speed flying iron block with the strong wind and vortex. The paint on the belly of the plane could almost vaguely reflect its shape on the metal surface of the macro cannon shell.

It was like two cavalrymen in the air, charging towards each other, but the lances between them brushed past the edge of the armor and fell into the air at the last moment of contact.

At this moment, the Valkyrie had actually forcibly penetrated the last layer of air defense, but she showed no intention of slowing down, as if she was still not satisfied even at this point, and smashed directly towards the fracture between the hulls.

ps: I forgot to write the ps yesterday. How sad! The ancestral law has changed drastically. Let me observe a nine-second silence for yesterday's ps. By the way, I will pray to the God of Wisdom for protection so that I can pass the exam smoothly.

Chapter 104: Desire Demon

Before entering the fracture, the Valkyrie had already begun to reverse thrust, so that she could stop inside the fracture and enter a hovering state before leaving from the other side.

In front of her were the cultist garrisons stationed at the fracture.

Because the Valkyrie's breakthrough speed was too fast, they only went on alert after hearing the artillery fire outside, and had not received any specific orders about when the enemy would come, where they would come from, and what they were.

A wave of heat from the air heated by friction made the perceived temperature seem to rise, but the gun barrel that was pointed at him as he turned straightened seemed exceptionally cold.

When the steel behemoth, carrying air waves, shock waves and noise, entered the fracture, although they reacted quickly and were only one step away from pulling the trigger when the Valkyrie stopped, it was already too late.

Countless projectiles flew out from the rocket pods hanging below, exploding and shattering one after another. The shrapnel easily penetrated the flesh, tearing apart the bodies of the cultists one after another. The multi-barreled laser cannons accurately melted those heavy weapons that were enough to pose a threat.

Suddenly, the fuselage tilted slightly.

The laser beam from the other end brushed past the fuselage and hit their allies. Through the sensors and cameras located throughout the body, the Valkyrie had omnidirectional vision and could easily avoid attacks even from behind.

At this moment, the enemy position in front of her had become a sea of ​​fire and a canvas of bright red abstract graffiti, and the fuselage turned its direction after this laser cannon.

The cultists breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the empty rocket nest.

But it became their last breath in this world.

The seemingly empty hole spewed out flames again, and the second round of continuous explosions began. With a projection amount far exceeding the carrying capacity, the Valkyrie cleared the defensive positions at the fracture section that should have posed a fatal threat to the light infantry.

In fact, it is not the cultists' fault for their poor defense. According to this defense standard, even if the opponent unexpectedly dared to drive the Valkyrie into the gap, with preparation, the distance is so close, and the body is completely within the attack range of a single-soldier melta cannon.

Normal maneuvering, hovering, turning, and striking all take time, which is more than enough time for an ordinary Valkyrie to be shot down by the Melta's concentrated fire.

Unfortunately, what came was much more terrifying than an ordinary Valkyrie.

On the other side of the ship, Captain Chaos was extremely anxious as he watched a series of bad news coming in, including the breach of the theater air defense network, the breach of the near-layer air defense, and the fall of the gap defense line. Finally, he got the specific information about the enemy's strength before the next bad news came.

A Valkyrie assault transport.

He laughed angrily.

A transport plane operating within the atmosphere single-handedly penetrated the frigate's air defense network?

If it weren't for the words written in black and white in front of him, he would have thought it was an auditory hallucination caused by taking too many drugs.

You might as well say that a big red, blue and white robot flew in from the sky with a lightsaber. At least the latter sounds less shameful.

Of course, he didn't go so far as to question the authenticity of the intelligence.

After forcibly suppressing some of the emotions that surged in his heart, he took this abnormal phenomenon to the highest degree of importance - in this universe, when something beyond common sense happened, it was best to be fully prepared.

Inside the ship, the area with the strongest subspace fluctuations.

The barrier between the real universe and the other side has become blurred, making this place a carnival for demons.

Dozens of succubus indulged in lust here. These depraved acts that dissipated into the evil energy of the warp constantly teased the fragile gap between the two universes, turning it into pale pink energy fluctuations that flickered from time to time.

A cultist in armor opened the door and entered.

Although their true forms are not humanoid, as is typical of Warp Demons, in the eyes of people in the real universe, succubi will appear beautiful in a way that suits their respective XP. If they are a group of succubi, this illusion may even extend to their movements and even the surrounding scenes.

For example, in the eyes of the cultist who entered, the wails of the skinned people who were hung and impaled everywhere were the strings of the musicians, the scattered corpses and flesh were a carpet overflowing with flowers, and the pool of blood taken from the hearts was a fragrant hot spring.

In that "hot spring", dozens of beautiful girls who seemed to be so beautiful that they should not exist in this world were laughing and playing with each other in the water. From time to time, they came to the shore or simply took out some exquisite fruits from the water and put them into their cherry lips.

Even the juice that flows down their lips and teeth and slowly flows down over their collarbones and cleavage looks so tempting.

However, the cultist swallowed his saliva and did not forget his duty. He relayed the captain's words to the girls.

The girls who were having their fun interrupted did not mind, but instead kindly invited him to join them in the hot spring bathing while he was speaking.

As a true believer in God, he could no longer hold back at this moment, and secretly told himself to enjoy it for just a little while.

After a while.

Dozens of lust demons walked out of the half-open door. One of the heads had its neck neatly cut open, and the bones and flesh inside were hollowed out, filled with various liquids. It was thrown casually by a lust demon at the door, but the head seemed not to be dead yet. Its eyes were empty and its teeth and tongue were struggling, but unfortunately it could no longer say anything.

Not only these succubi, but also the cultists left behind on the ships are gathering around the fracture. Among them are a small number of heavily armored Fallen Navy boarding team soldiers - they are also professionals in counter-boarding.

Eyes moving back and forth.

At the break, the Valkyrie used multi-barreled laser cannons to kill more than a dozen cultists who tried to approach the break from the outer positions, creating a fire suppression deterrent, and then she lowered the fuselage and opened the tail hatch.

The liquid quickly flowed out of the door through the opening. Zhang Ge, who opened the safety facilities one by one, had not yet realized what kind of surprise scene he would face.

Amelia and Heloise left the plane first to clean up, while the others formed a formation and left the plane cautiously after a short while.

Outside, both sides of the fracture were in a mess, with the corpses of the cultists scattered everywhere. Many of them could only be described as fragments, and a large number of metal blocks that had been melted beyond recognition... could only be barely identified as some kind of artillery in their "lifetime".

The flames and smoke had not yet dissipated. Not to mention the imagined attack, there was not even a living person in sight except them, which made the group's caution seem a little unnecessary.

Zhang Ge looked around and saw no other Valkyries or fighter planes, not even their wreckage.

Were they all lost? One shouldn't underestimate the ship-borne air defense network. It was a pity that his own fighter plane wasn't destroyed.

But it doesn't matter, their sacrifice will not be in vain. The more dangerous the better. When I die, resurrecting one or two hundred people will be a piece of cake.

Zhang Gezhi was very proud and began to lead his men towards the fracture section.
