Warhammer 40: Doom

Chapter 362 The Ferocity of the Titans
At the last moment before Doom stepped underground, he turned back and caught sight of the psionic titan descending. Without hesitation, he hurled his Judgment Sword, destroying it in one fell swoop.

In everyone's memory, the psionic titan became transparent and then forgotten; impressions of it faded, written records disappeared, and it ultimately became a lingering question in everyone's mind.

The psionic titans turned to ashes and were erased from the concept of reality.

Both the Imperial Guard and Lady Clara felt something was amiss. How could the Titans' attack formation have such a wide-open center, leaving an obvious vital point exposed?
A crimson lightsaber fell from the ashes, its blade piercing through the bluestone and embedding itself in the surface of the planet Grava.

When it touches the ground, the realm of calamity is banished, and the laws of physics return to the battlefield.

"Attack enemy Titan units!" A roar echoed, a low shout rousing the battlefield as the Omnic units re-entered the battlefield.

Mrs. Clara was completely bewildered, not understanding what had happened.
It is incomprehensible why our Titan's psionic field suddenly shattered.
Why is the center gate of the Titan formation wide open? Something seems to have existed there before. Now, there is only a human-made longsword.

The doubts remain, and the actions continue unabated.

Titan drew power from the psionic "battery" and aimed it at densely populated human areas.

So what if the psionic field has dissipated? That was just a side effect of the Titans, suppressing mental interference with reality and making it difficult for enemies to muster the courage to resist.

The real weapon has not yet been launched. With just one salvo, the subspace energy will tear reality apart, annihilate the black sphere, and destroy minds and souls!
It will turn the tide of battle and destroy all enemies in its path!
"All heavy firepower, attack the enemy Titans!" Li Tang leaned on the command platform, his hands crushing the edges of the steel, his eyes bloodshot.

In terms of war command, Li Tang was always steady and calm, but at this moment he couldn't help but feel extremely nervous.

If the enemy psionic titans are allowed to run rampant, the cost of this war will far exceed his expectations.

In the holographic projection, Lady Kratana Titan was hit by various attacks, yet she still stood tall on the battlefield, accumulating annihilation-level psionic energy.

Excessive psionic energy condensed into a shield, resembling a dark singularity that devoured everything. Missiles were swallowed up by it, while energy beams were deflected and distorted, unable to cause any damage.

They are an unsolvable force, relentlessly pressing forward on the human front, like a tightening rope, strangling Nur's victory.

ten seconds...

Li Tang's two hearts were pounding violently.

The Annihilation Missile will take another ten seconds to arrive—it has already penetrated the shield and entered the atmosphere, and has even completed target lock and attack attitude adjustment.

But the ground troops couldn't wait a second longer!
The psionic reaction was about to reach its peak. The Imperial Guard's body monitoring system showed that the heart rate of humanity's most elite warriors continued to increase, and they experienced physiological reactions such as dizziness and vomiting.

"Withdraw..." Li Tang was about to give the order to have the teleportation lasso bring back the legion brothers and the imperial guards, and temporarily retreat to prepare for the next attack.

"Launch the Atlantean mechs, prepare for the light spear attack!"

The communication, delivered via a telepathic link, interrupted the governor's orders; Company Commander Atum's request arrived swiftly and urgently.

"Did you succeed?" Li Tang's expression changed, and he quickly asked himself in his mind to confirm the request for help.

The shield is not completely closed yet, making it difficult for heavy units to penetrate. If an accident occurs and the Atlantean mech crashes into the shield, it could result in the pilot's death.

"Confirm the command!" Atum declared decisively, confirming the order without hesitation.

In the underground plasma reactor of the hive, a company commander fired his shoulder cannons incessantly, his teammates vanished in a flash of light, and he himself was about to be teleported away.

Led by HM-6657, the Iron Men stood in front, their steel bodies battered and broken, blocking the pipes to resist Lady Clara's ferocious counterattack.

They stormed into the underground area, breached the alien defenses, planted bombs in the plasma reactor, and detonated the shield's power engine.

"Launch the Atlantean mechs, lock onto the ground with the light spears." Li Tang's fingers moved with lightning speed as he confirmed the command on the control panel.

From the belly of the Titan transport ship, the Titan Throne, which had been prepared beforehand, was launched and dropped onto the battlefield, ready to fight the enemy Titans.

boom--

The earth rumbled and trembled as the plasma engine exploded, the confined energy body rapidly expanded, and the high-temperature slurry produced a violent explosion.

The center of the battlefield collapsed into a void, at which a bright plasma fireball released destructive energy.

Unfortunately, a psionic titan fell into a deep pit and was buried by the constantly falling ruins, making it difficult to escape for the time being.

The night sky over the planet Grava suddenly brightened. The shield, whose power supply had been drastically reduced, finally gave way. The honeycomb-structured energy shield trembled and shattered under the continuous attacks of the light spears.

"Light strike is imminent, ground units take cover!" The communication channel was filled with mechanical warnings, the holographic map marked the strike range, and troops were urgently ordered to take cover; the light spear strike was coming.

The warning seemed somewhat superfluous; the moment the planetary shield shattered, the warriors had already taken cover in safe locations, adopting a low posture to withstand the impact.

The plasma spears fell straight down, beams of light connecting the sky and the earth, high-energy rays enveloping the psionic titan, bursting forth with a dazzling brilliance like a supernova!

The psionic titan was incredibly resilient; its shield constantly shifted and changed, yet it did not break, withstanding the bombardment of the anti-ship plasma spears.

On the edge of Titan, the land began to crystallize and annihilate, and the high temperature of plasma swept across the battlefield, yet it still stood firm.

The joints groaned, the framework trembled, the shield flickered, and the psionic titan, like a towering giant, bore the final punishment descending from the heavens.

The psionic vortex cannon dimmed, and all psionic energy was redirected to the shield to resist the light spear bombardment.

Titan was relentlessly suppressed by naval gunfire, and the tide of battle turned instantly. Lady Clara was forced to abandon the surface and retreat entirely into underground fortifications.

Without the protection of the shields, the ground is no longer safe.

Titans may seem indestructible, but without planetary shields for protection, they are nothing more than sitting ducks for fleet artillery.

Taking advantage of the lull in the fleet's attack on the Titans, they entered the underground space to hide, conserve their fighting strength, and continue the tug-of-war with humanity.

The light spears struck one after another, and the Iron Man and Power Armor sensors kept issuing alarms. The battlefield temperature continued to rise, and the cool air gradually became scorching.

The attack did not stop, indicating that the psionic titan had not yet fallen and was still struggling against the light spears.

The well-informed Imperial Guard shook their heads. The aliens were repulsive, but the psionic titans they piloted were far more advanced than human titans.

Humans were directly hit by the light spear from high orbit. Even the most powerful Emperor-class beings could not withstand it. Their shields held for a few seconds before overloading, and the entire group was instantly melted by the high temperature.

Despite enduring at least four beams of light, the alien Titan refused to fall, maintaining its psionic shield and emitting defiant groans.

"The Annihilation Missile has arrived."

A few seconds later, an announcement was made, but the missile that was launched immediately was late in arriving.

The Annihilation Missile fell at forty times the speed of sound, taking advantage of the gap in the Light Spear's attack to crash directly into the Psionic Titan.

The "Destroyer Missile," specifically designed to target large psionic units, has an outer shell layer containing the ashes of the "Untouchables." The warhead passes through the psionic shield without any resistance, heading straight for its target.

The missile disintegrates inside the shield, and the ashes carried by the warhead explode out, spreading around the target and forming a "destroyed" zone.

The psionic titan encountered its natural enemy; its erratic mass and disintegrated body caused its psionic energy to recede, revealing its true form.

With a whooshing sound carrying the might of heaven, the Atlantean Mech Throne opened in the air, the mech adjusted its posture, and a heavy flying kick descended from the sky!

Boom——

Steel clashed with steel, and a hundred-meter-tall humanoid mech slammed into the head of a psionic titan, the sonic boom shattering the earth.

The Atlantean mech, powered by ten times the speed of sound, unleashes unimaginable power through mass acceleration.

The psionic titan was blasted underground, lying in the crater struggling, its body groaning, still trying to get up and fight again!
The four Atlantean pilots gave no chance, their humanoid iron feet stepping on the psionic titan's chest, activating the giant dimensional weapon, and firing it towards the enemy's vitals.

The dimensional weapon's sharpness goes without saying; a light blade sweeps across, slicing the enemy in two, and fluorescent oil sprays out from the cut like blood.

The psionic titan struggled, and as the ashes were dispersed, its body once again shimmered with psionic light.

Seeing that it was still determined to steal, the Atlantean mech weapon slashed down again, splitting open the Titan's cockpit, and the giant shoulder cannon was fired at Lady Kra inside.

Some drivers even pulled out Lady Clara and crushed her to death in their hands, showing no mercy to the alien.

The Legion warriors were greatly encouraged by the successful elimination of the enemy Titans and continued to hunt down Lady Kra as the intelligent legions continued to fall.

With the support of fleet firepower, the Nur army has an absolute advantage. Once the aliens are identified, there are countless ways to eliminate them.

The surface stretched out, and the underground of the hive was also bustling with activity, as Lady Kra poured in, her roars echoing everywhere.
