Ventanus's helmet showed that all targets marked in red had been killed, while those marked in green still needed rescue.
"Transport all the survivors back to the Global Museum. Treatment equipment and supplies have been sent from there. Everyone else, continue to follow me toward the port."
The only things on Ventanus' mind were to destroy the enemy, rescue the wounded, and assemble the troops.
The airport manager mentioned that there were some old equipment that could be used in the port, but with the replacements provided by Luo Xi, the necessity of those things has been greatly reduced.
But the port is more than just that. There are a large number of mortal engineers and workers, as well as a large number of weapons and equipment waiting to be loaded.
The port's tower is located around the 60th landing platform, which is a natural shelter, so most of the survivors in the port gathered here to hide.
Fear and uneasiness still remained on everyone's face. They didn't know what had happened, but suddenly the sky seemed to collapse, and the starships in orbit fell one after another and smashed onto the surface of the planet Calth.
This shelter was not safe, as debris was still falling from the sky. If just one of them fell here, everyone would be killed by the shock wave.
But it is better than nothing. The heavy platform gives them a false sense of security. They huddle together, seeking some kind of shelter.
"Those are Space Marines! They're coming!"
Suddenly, some of the refugees saw Ventanus and others rushing over. Dozens of Extreme Warriors did not hide themselves, they appeared beside these survivors.
The survivors have many questions, cries, and requests. They want answers to what happened in Cowes.
Ventanus took off his helmet and put it on his waist, and said loudly: "War has come, there is no more time to explain and waste. Everyone retreat in this direction, the Global Museum has your shelter."
The crowd left quickly upon hearing this. Some of them supported each other, while others just trotted away from the place as quickly as possible.
"My Lord, if you wish to continue exploring this area, we can help."
Several volunteers stepped forward and did not choose to leave. Ventanus did not refuse but only selected two of them.
The Space Marines entered the ruins with their mortal servants and a few volunteers. They arrived at the port's control tower and the Space Marines spread out and entered each room to search for any lucky survivors.
Standing in the still intact corridor and looking out, Ventanus saw that large areas of facilities and shipping containers had been engulfed in flames, with thick black smoke rising into the sky. The fallen debris streaked across the sky like a meteor, making a deafening noise when it hit the ground.
The once busy port now looks like hell.
There were shouts from below, coming from the volunteers, and Ventanus saw three squads of Space Marines in red armor advancing towards the tower.
Those mortals had no idea what was happening.
Ventanus did not hesitate. He quickly raised his bolter and fired several rounds of bolt shells, hitting and destroying the heads of the two Word Bearers.
Space Marines wearing power armor are much stronger than mortals, and the explosive shells can only make a big hole instead of shattering the whole body after hitting them. But such injuries are still fatal.
The Word Bearers also reacted extremely quickly. They didn't know why the Extreme Marines, who should have known nothing, took the initiative to open fire, but it was obvious that they already knew the truth.
Both sides were firing wildly, walls and equipment were torn apart, and the exploding metal and concrete were equally deadly. There was a storm of fire and metal everywhere.
The Ultramarines and the Word Bearers engaged in close combat in the harbor.
Chapter 17 The original body debates
This group of Word Bearers who had intended to launch a sneak attack were instead put in a passive situation.
The explosive shells fired from the tower penetrated the windows and walls and shot accurately towards the helmets of the Word Bearers. The advantage of being high above increased the power of the explosive shells and made the counterattack of the Word Bearers more unfavorable.
Being high above others is a natural advantage.
But the tower was not a safe place either, as the Word Bearers' counterattack bombs could also break through the not-so-thick barriers.
The broken metal and flames devoured the lives of the two mortals who volunteered. Their bodies exploded into blood mist, and only a few finger-sized pieces of flesh and blood remained.
Their bodies were even thrown into the lower space along with the floor by the impact, and buried together with the concrete and steel.
Faced with weapons that can kill Astartes, mortals are too fragile and will most likely die even if they just touch them.
Deputy Selaton witnessed all of this. He had no time to mourn for the mortals. He and his fighting brothers retreated steadily, gradually keeping a distance.
The overall structure of the tower was constantly damaged by the bomb attacks, and soon it began to collapse with a scream. When the internal metal structure and external support could no longer bear it, the entire tower collapsed.
Smoke and dust spread, and the figures of the Extreme Warriors had disappeared in the ruins.
Were they buried? Or did they escape?
The Word Bearers officer kept scanning the ruins, and the auxiliary system in his helmet was also searching for traces of the enemy.
Next to Ventanus lay a wounded battle brother, his feet were hit by explosives, and the power armor could not protect him, so his calves and thighs had been turned into slag, but he was still alive, and his powerful hemostatic ability slowed down the loss of life.
"Leave it to you, brother."
In response, they were sounded by a thunderous roar of missiles. Hundreds of micro-missiles were fired from one side of the battlefield, and the support of the Iron Hands accurately arrived at the coordinates they provided.
The fission of atoms released enormous amounts of energy, and densely packed nuclear missiles exploded in the Word Bearers' positions. These hugely threatening Astartes did not even have much ability to resist before they were completely evaporated in the flames of the explosion.
This is completely unequal firepower. Under the covering bombardment of the missile nest, even a small Titan is at risk of being severely damaged.
And these are exactly what the Iron Hands excel at.
With gunpowder still wrapped around his body, Wieland led the warriors into the battlefield. They laughed happily. The joy of revenge slightly reduced the anger of these warriors, but it was not enough.
They needed to completely destroy the damned traitor and drown the traitor's master, Lorgar, in his own blood.
-
The battle in space is even more brutal.
The Word Bearers' fleet continued to appear on the outer edge of low-Earth orbit. They had come from afar, and their engines and weapon arrays had already been preheated, while half of the Ultramarines' warships still had their engines turned off.
This also means that this will be an unequal massacre.
The Pseudo-Emperor pointed its side at the anchored starships, and rounds of bombardment came down with fury on the beasts waiting to be slaughtered.
Each volley would kill an opponent, leaving them without power, unable to activate their void shields, or even to fight back.
The Holy Salamance was hit and the hull was torn into pieces.
Guilliman witnessed it all.
He stood on the bridge, constantly recording the fleet's losses and recovery. Many warships were being destroyed by the enemy, but they were also delaying the enemy's pace, buying time for other companions.
Faster! Faster!
The Primarch roared in his heart, but on the surface he only showed an increasingly calm and stern demeanor.
The communication was linked again, and the one who initiated the link was Luojia's flagship.
Guilliman chose to accept the communication, and the light shone again. Lorgar's somewhat illusory figure appeared in front of him, while the figures of his offspring were difficult to find.
Luo Jia's head was lowered, his eyes were sunken, and his entire face seemed to be shrouded in a layer of mysterious darkness.
"You damned beast! How could I have believed that you would correct yourself? You won't. You will just bite me a few more times like a wild dog!"
Before Lorgar could speak, Guilliman's angry rebuke was heard.
"My brother, I thought you would say some useless words like misunderstanding and request for a ceasefire." Lorgar was a little surprised by Guilliman's performance. He knew that his brother had a weak brotherhood and even felt guilty about it.
Weakness and guilt mean there are holes in the soul, and holes contain opportunities for betrayal.
A guy like Lion El'Jonson would never reveal his weaknesses.
"Stop playing such an abstract role. It is you who unleashed the Chaos Code. It is you who created the chaos. It is you who declared war on me! It is you who caused Calth to burn and my people to die."
"I only regret not having gone a little harder when I burned that damned cesspool city. Your stinking statues and scriptures should have been destroyed more thoroughly. I even gave those Colchis seven days to evacuate."
Guilliman's reaction shocked Lorgar. According to the trajectory of the Supreme Heaven, Roboute should still know nothing at this moment. What made him realize the truth so early?
"You boneless bug, you chose to abandon the Emperor and betray him. Your former barking loyalty and faith are nothing but stinking excrement. Which master have you chosen for yourself?"
After knowing that the other party had betrayed him, Roboute vented his anger by insulting the other party, without any grace or intention of saving face for the other party.
"Lorga, you have no faith at all. You are just a loyal dog of power, you poor maggot! Your father should have fed you to Russ and let you die early!"
"How dare you insult my faith!"
This high-intensity output made the bald Primarch feel annoyed, especially Guilliman's insults to his beliefs, which made him extremely angry. His original intention to play tricks on the other party was gone.
It was obvious that he should have taken the initiative, humiliated Guilliman from a superior position, and vented the hatred of the former Perfect City on him.
But why did it end up that he was scolded by Guilliman and even became angry and broke down?
This was completely different from what Lorgar had imagined and predicted.
He was even prepared to say, "I am an orphan" when Guilliman tried to soften him with brotherly love and oppress him in the name of the Emperor, to completely slap this brother and the Emperor in the face. To prove his absolute loyalty to the Supreme Heaven.
"Robot, you will soon understand that Calth is a sacrifice, the beginning of a new universe, the dawn of a fairer order, and the galaxy will be transformed and reborn."
"And our father will fall from his throne and die, because you are foolish and stubborn, and the Most High will never extend an olive branch to you."
"The Empire is gone, the galaxy is burning, and our fathers' dream is coming to an end."

Chapter 18: Self-proclaimed Justice
The killing was very easy for the Seventeenth Legion. They only needed to open the void shield and slide. Those motionless steel beasts would be evaporated and destroyed by the void shield. The macro cannon's shells and light spears could make them boil completely.
This is even easier than target shooting, because the enemy's power system, void shield and attack system are still being started. You only need to find and aim at these cobalt blue warships, and you can completely destroy them after locking them.
Every time an Ultramarines ship was destroyed, the Word Bearers cheered and screamed from the bottom of their hearts. These were the people who destroyed the Perfect City and made them kneel and suffer humiliation under the oppression of the Emperor.
Today is the day they repay this humiliation to the Ultramarines.
Today is the day when the great power of the Most High reveals the ultimate truth.
Artillery fire was raging, plasma and light beams crisscrossed for hundreds of kilometers, and lightning tore through the enemy's armor, slaughtering all life.
The four-kilometer-long Sabre frigate exploded from the inside, the Hope battleship was engulfed in white-hot flames, and the explosion of the auxiliary aircraft carrier Farewell was like a flower, withering away tens of thousands of lives. The engine of the Vosferus was hit while it was turning, and the collapsed wreckage broke another troop transport in two.
Those ships full of honor turned into eternal graves without firing a single shot. After falling into the starry sky, they were captured by the gravity of the stars and continued to rotate, carrying their brave crews with them in the last moments of the battle.
Relying on the sacrifices of many brave and fearless people to delay time, the remaining warships finally gradually recovered. Their reactors burned violently, squeezing out all the energy to get the engines moving again.
"The weapon system of Macragge's Glory is online, and the power system will soon be restored!" The captain's report shocked the Primarch, and he immediately ordered the ship's light spears to fire at full power.
The Hellfire-class battleship Pure Flame that was attacking the dock was very gorgeous in appearance, like a huge shining blade. Its heavy bow could directly smash a small battleship in half, but its atrocities were about to end here.
Under the surging firepower attack of the Queen of Glory-class battleship, the dazzling light spear hit its tail, the high temperature like a star melted the armor, the energy explosion destroyed the engine, and in a series of explosions, the battleship also became a cold space wreckage.
The tail flame of Macragge's Glory burned again. This 26-kilometer-long giant battleship was the pinnacle of the Empire's forging technology. It could completely crush any opponent in a space naval battle.
