Warhammer: Don't Call Me the God of All Machines

Chapter 340: How to Lose the Flying Dragon Riding on the Face (Please Subscribe)
Captain Vendrar of the Spear of Vilia was immersed in blissful joy.

Ever since the outbreak of the Horus Heresy, an indelible shadow has been cast over the hearts of all loyalists. Although they are reluctant to admit it, the fact is that the power possessed by the rebellious primarchs undoubtedly far exceeds that of the loyalists in terms of data.

There are now only three severely damaged legions stationed in the solar system. The human home galaxy has been largely isolated, and the enemy is approaching like a tsunami.

The war in the Beta Garmon Cluster is continuing to spread, and the situation has become even more passive with this important transportation route falling into the hands of the enemy.

"Emperor, if this is a dream, please don't let me wake up."

Originally, a strategic cruiser was facing off against hundreds of warships of the Alpha Legion and a Queen of Glory-class battleship, which was a completely fatal situation.

Even if he was the last shell, Vendral didn't know if his void shield could support the impact and remain upright.

And now, leaving aside those three unnamed behemoths, the Dark Angels' Indomitable Truth and the Blood Angels' Red Tears, plus the thousands of small warships that followed, can completely crush the Alpha Legion.

Vendral just wants to say, how can you lose by using a dragon to hit your face?
"Captain, the Indomitable Truth has sent a real-time communication." The adjutant at the side handed the data to the captain. At the same time, the communication servitor on the bridge deck began to broadcast the communication audio in a sluggish manner.

With a crackling sound of electromagnetic disturbance, the Indomitable Truth and the Spear of Vilia established contact.

"Attention Imperial warships: Ultramarine reinforcements have arrived in the solar system. Disable all weapon systems and move towards our fleet immediately."

"Repeat, move closer immediately. The next battle is not yours to participate in."

The communication signal from the Indomitable Truth caused chaos within the Spear of Vilia. It was undoubtedly a huge risk for them to lower all their weapons arrays on a battlefield full of dangers.

Many elite veterans and crew members expressed their objections. They suggested that the captain reconsider his decision for the sake of the lives of all the crew members and the safety of the empire.

However, Vendral ignored all the advice. He used his authority to suppress the riot and ordered all the crew members to do as mentioned in the communication.

"Do as they say. We don't have time to waste. Although the Alpha Legion is at a disadvantage, war is never a simple matter of comparing whose ship is bigger and whose ship is smaller."

The Spear of Vilia shut down its weapon array and only kept its conventional engine running at idling speed. It merged into the huge fleet of warships like a drop of water.

Many of the warship reinforcements from the Five Hundred Worlds sent signals of approval to the Spear of Vilia, and whether through personal witnessing or information sharing, the heroic act of the Imperial Navy quickly spread throughout the fleet.

Respecting the strong and the brave is an iron rule no matter where you are. Vendral won everyone's praise with his courage.

And at this moment, on the bridge deck of the Victory Laurel, in front of the holographic projection.

"We have finally arrived at the solar system. This is all so difficult." Luo Xi sighed as he looked at the familiar planet.

The ten thousand years he slept might be a huge change for an individual human being, but on the scale of the universe it was just a moment, and the solar system had not changed much from the last impression in his mind.

Luo Xi couldn't help but think of a line from an ancient literary master: "People today cannot see the moon of the past, but this moon once shone on the ancients."

"Nice verses," commented the Prophet Uslan. He had a deep understanding of human history and culture, and could naturally understand the subtle emotions contained in the words.

Although it is far inferior to the splendid culture of the Eldar, considering the length of human civilization, being able to write such poems is already quite good.

Their journey on this ultra-long-distance Webway voyage was not smooth sailing. Traces of demons and something that made Uslan shudder with fear appeared in the Webway dimension that should have been safe and unobstructed.

The Eldar prophets called them "Slavers". They were an extremely strange species of subspace creatures. No one knew what these strange beings were. Even the knowledgeable Uslan only knew how dangerous they were.

The Enslavers could enslave anything, not just living things with souls. Even truly inanimate objects and soulless machines could not escape enslavement. Some records mention that the Creator's demise seemed closely linked to the Enslavers. Of course, after encountering this terrifying existence in the Webway, Uslan immediately turned around and led his fleet to a detour, avoiding a direct confrontation with the Enslavers that appeared in the Webway.

Although there were some twists and turns along the way, the fleet finally arrived at the solar system safely. And what Roche had been worried about, the so-called inability to enter the ceremony site as mentioned by Uslan, did not happen.

As soon as they came out of the exit of the webway, they encountered the fleet of the Alpha Legion and an Imperial warship that was about to ram the enemy ship and die heroically.

Roxi stood in front of the holographic projection. Ryan on the New Caliban and Sanguinius on the Angel's Tear also communicated face to face through holographic projection.

Ever since they stepped into the gate of the solar system, Roxi always felt that there seemed to be a smile on Ryan's face that could not be concealed. The mood of the Caliban Lion King, who always had a cold face, improved a lot.

From his guerrilla warfare with the Night Lords in the Salamas system to a series of events in Macragge, Lion finally returned to the people he was loyal to.

On a cosmic scale, they have already reached the Pluto region, which is no different from being right up against the Emperor.

In order to prevent his return, the traitors even created a subspace storm, blocking the communication between the Solar Star Region and the Ultramarine Star Region, and stopping the three most powerful legions that were transferred to remote areas.

The Lion King of Caliban will vent his anger on all traitors. Any act of rebellion will not escape Lion's eyes, and his lion sword will eventually cut off the heads of all rebels.

Traitors, I have returned.

"Lock on the Alpha. Don't let Alpharis, the most cunning traitor, escape. I will use the head of a rebellious primarch to ask my father for forgiveness."

Ryan's tone was still very indifferent, but his words were extremely arrogant. However, everyone present, including Sanguinius, Roche, and the commanders of several large warships, did not doubt the authenticity of his words.

The fleet and military force in the hands of the Lion King today can even break through the defenses set up by the Imperial Army and head straight for Terra. This is a third-party force that can instantly break the balance.

The three Thundercloud-class planetary battleships began to spread out in a "品"-shaped formation, perfectly blocking the Alpha's escape route. As for the small battleships and the two Glory Queens, they were aimed at the hundreds of battleships of the Alpha Legion.

The traitor fleet, which had been in an absolute advantage, was instantly in a desperate situation. This was an absolute gap in strength. The reason why Ryan did not order the fleet to open fire immediately and blow the traitors into the sky was because he was concerned about the satellite fortress of Pluto behind the traitors.

Through the intelligence information from the Spear of Vilia and the powerful scanning array, Ryan learned that there were still many loyalists fighting on the satellites of this planet, and that the important astropathic monitoring station was an important communication network node that could not be lost.

The Alpha Legion was already trapped, and Ryan would now destroy them completely with surgical precision.

"The traitor's fleet has fallen into silence. I will have the fleet control its firepower and try not to accidentally harm the Empire's troops."

"Pay attention to the Alpha's movements. We must not let it escape!"

Ryan's orders were passed down one by one, and all the people and warships of the expedition support fleet began to change their formation under his command.

The war command ability of the Lion of Caliban is matched only by a few such as Horus and Ferrus, and when this concept is narrowed down to a small-scale battle, Lion may be the best.

"What about the enemies in Pluto's orbit? How to deal with them?" asked Roche's projection.

In fact, he also knew the answer to this question. In this dark universe, boarding and close combat would never be wrong.

The reason why he asked this was naturally to follow Ryan's wishes. This big cat from Caliban was soft-hearted and would not respond to hard tactics, so it would definitely be a good idea to compliment him more.

"I will personally lead the Space Marines to land on Pluto. Alpha is mine!" Ryan showed a cruel smile, and then disappeared into the holographic projection with Hou Guin and Red Ross.
