Warhammer 40: My Fiancée Fulgrim.

Chapter 41 A Wonderful Day Begins with a Board Jump (Part 1)
call out!
Several landing torpedoes were launched from the torpedo launcher of the Lunar-class cruiser toward the last remaining alien warship that had not been hit by Imperial fire.

Click!

With a muffled thud, the pointed tip of the landing torpedo pierced the faintly glowing surface of the alien warship, penetrating deep inside.

Not only that.

Several landing craft that had been circling in the distance also landed on the deck of the alien warship.

Soldiers from the elite First and Second Companies of the Son of the Emperor also joined the boarding operation.

A wonderful day starts with a boarding jump!
The landing craft's hatch opened, but instead of a welcoming ceremony, Casca was met with a barrage of Crystal Alien fire from the ship's landing deck.

Countless rays of dazzling light shot out from in front of the crystal structure, scorching the uninvited guests in front of them.

Such a dense barrage of focused-energy weapon fire would have resulted in heavy losses for their squad if they had acted recklessly without proper defensive measures.

A blinding flash of light instantly filled the cramped little landing deck.

Upon seeing this, the crystal structures emitted a crisp, clattering sound as glass collided.

Perhaps they are celebrating their victory in their own language, and despising the treachery of humanity.

Those on the ship knew that the enemy had not fired large-scale cannons or light spears at them, but rather various landing torpedoes, indicating that they were definitely trying to board and capture them alive.

So they decided to use this as a pretext and arranged for their crew to ambush the landing site in advance.

If ordinary boarders are not careful, they will all be wiped out by this first salvo.

But Casca is different.

He is a shield dog.

When the dust settled, the crystal construct alien did not see the carbonized enemy corpse, but an intact shield.

A giant golden imperial eagle emblem soars atop this elegant purple boarding shield.

The boarding shield is the same height as the Casca, and it is engraved with countless dazzling purple-gold petal patterns that are intricate and beautiful. Combined with the golden eagle wings in the upper right corner that seem ready to take flight, it adds a touch of elegance.

Holding a master-crafted boarding shield (made by Fugrim), Kasgar extends a flaming gun muzzle from a small firing port on the side.

hum!
The beam swept across the entire cramped landing pod in an instant. Before the attacking aliens could even lie in wait for the next wave of fire, they were already being mowed down by Casgar.

It turned into charred and melted silicon crystals, emitting a strong burnt smell.

We're shield dogs!

Wow!
Hiding in a corner, the Crystal Alien, having avoided Casca's first wave of fire, emitted a crisp symphony upon realizing its sneak attack had failed.

It wriggled its clumsy body, trying to escape by scattering around the complex terrain of the landing pod.

Casca really doesn't have a solution to this.

But his teammates do.

"Humph, want to escape?!"

A ghostly figure darted across the battlefield, his long dueling sword piercing the core of the alien crystal with precision several times before being swiftly withdrawn.

Within days of engaging them in battle, they had already figured out the enemy's vital points.

"Lucius."

"Pay attention to your position. The area ahead is still unexplored. Do not pursue too far."

Sol Tavetz, who was on guard to the left of Casca, offered a reminder.

Carrying a large amount of explosives and an engineering axe, he, as the team's support player, was currently adjusting his oracle to locate nearby enemies.

"Tsk, boring."

Upon hearing the other's advice, Lucius reluctantly withdrew from Casca's right hand and returned to the cover of the boarding shield.

As the raider in the squad, he uses his melee blade to eliminate anything that dares to stand in their way.

As for the last position, it was the Sword Saint Aqua who served as the mentor and brought up the rear.

On the one hand, she can observe the overall situation in a timely manner and provide support; on the other hand, she can also give the tactical squad cooperation advice, allowing these recruits to receive combat training.

Judging from their teamwork, the three little guys seem to be performing quite well.

Three recruits with potential comparable to hers. Other legions would be lucky to find even one.

Three of them appeared here at once!
The thought of them becoming the new generation of the Third Legion, leading the Emperor's sons, filled Aqua with a sense of pride and anticipation.

"Open the door! Check the water meter!"

Kasgar kicked open the iron door of the alien warship and shouted.

"And you too, crack down on prostitution!"

He kicked open another door.

Okay, just pretend she didn't say anything.

Kaska, that guy, can never be serious for more than three seconds.

"There's nobody here. This area should be considered a safe zone."

"Based on our initial landing location, this place is still a long way from the location of the alien's control center."

As Casca walked along the narrow deck walkway, he analyzed the situation.

The interior of the alien warship is mainly constructed of crystal, and even the walking deck corridors are covered with countless prismatic spikes.

It would be far too time-consuming for their four-person team to search the enemy's control room step by step.

Although the alien warship is currently alone, as long as they can enter the portal, the Casca boarding squad will have to return to the alien's base with it!
We must seize command of the ship before the enemy rushes into the portal!

"Tavetz, deploy the new type of unmanned spider."

"Ah."

At Kasgar's command, dozens of small mechanical spiders poured out of the backpack behind Thor Tavitz.

They climbed along the irregular walls to enter other rooms, transmitting the information they discovered in real time.

Because of their small size, these mechanical spiders are difficult to spot, yet they can still enter enclosed rooms through various narrow pipes to investigate.

Based on the movement trajectory and camera module, the indoor terrain was mapped upon entry.

On the other hand, it can also achieve the same navigation information transmission effect as a servo skull.

This was, of course, a wonderful tool proposed by Kasgar and designed by Fugrim.

This was the first time we had ever used a boarding maneuver in actual combat, as we had never done it before.

"Tavetz, how's the result?"

"It's even better than I expected."

The taciturn Terran recruit replied, "This alien warship is somewhat different from the ones we usually see."

"The command center is not at the bow, but at the very center of the teardrop-shaped hull."

"Okay! Share the information with the other members who jumped ship."

"Now, continue heading towards the enemy's command center."

Above the orbit of a silent star.

"What was Casca's reply?! Are they still trying to seize control of the enemy's warships?"

The fleet commander, who was initially overjoyed by the great victory, gradually turned pale as time went on.

"Quickly inform them that if they cannot complete the mission of capturing the enemy warship, they should evacuate as soon as possible!"

[Your warship is very close to the portal. If you cannot capture the ship, please evacuate as soon as possible!]

[To reiterate! If you cannot capture the ship, evacuate as soon as possible!]

The sound array's broadcast echoed across the bridge of the Luna-class cruiser.

If Casca and the others were taken to the other side of the portal by the alien warship and never heard from again...
How is he going to explain this to Primarch Vograim?

He nervously wiped the sweat from his forehead.
