The Imperial Fists and the Sons of Horus fought each other, punch after punch, sword after sword drawing blood, both sides were competing in willpower and endurance.

Adjutant Perius took over Sigismund's position. Holding the giant sword, he directly chopped down a Gastling Terminator, and in the blink of an eye he pulled out his own giant sword and cut off the head with a stunning arc.

A flash of thunder flashed in the sky, and in the battlefield that was suddenly illuminated, a traitor's head flew into the air, and a large amount of foul-smelling blood gushed out from the carotid artery.

Perius was like a god of war, his body soaked in the blood of his enemies, glowing scarlet under the light of thunder.

In his left hand he also held a precision bolt pistol, and he fired with both hands at the same time, blowing off the head of an enemy who was about to launch a sneak attack.

Strong warriors like him and Lann were fully capable of dominating parts of the battlefield on their own without the appearance of a terrifying enemy like Sigismund.

"My lord, where are the Empire's reinforcements? The traitors' warships have completely entered the explosion range. We should also retreat."

Previously, Dorn's intention was to let the defenders on Pluto hold out against the enemy, attract the enemy's attention, and at the same time make the enemy misjudge that there were conflicts and problems within the empire, so that they could approach the Twin Gates with confidence.

But now they have managed to hold their ground, what about the reinforcements Dorne promised?

The sage Roshi should send a force to blow up the Twin Gates.

After launching a counterattack, Perius continued to retreat with his battle brothers. They tightened their shield line to better block the enemy's firepower coverage.

"Maybe we are really going to die here, brother." Lann laughed lowly.

"You want to die, then go ahead. I still have to keep killing Horus's bastard son. At least we killed several times more enemy troops, so it's not a loss anyway."

Sigismund tried to be as relaxed as possible, joking with his battle-brothers.

He suddenly looked up at the sky instinctively, as if something was coming.

At this moment, huge metal airdrop pods fell from the atmosphere. Unlike the airdrop pods used by Space Marines, these huge metal blocks that looked like obelisks fell to the ground without any deceleration.

In the midst of the lightning storm, metal obelisks fell from the sky, tearing apart the enemy's positions with a howling wind.

From time to time, the Sons of Horus were smashed into pieces by these metal obelisks that fell from the sky. They had no idea why these weird things would fall from the sky that they were supposed to control.

These metal obelisks don't even have engines for recoil deceleration. Even with the physical fitness of a Space Marine, they would most likely be turned into meat paste if they were to hit the ground directly from orbit.

Dust and smoke rose up, blocking the view. Sigismund held the sword with both hands and used his excellent eyesight and perception to observe the guys who suddenly appeared.

In their power armor identification signal, the other side was marked as "friendly", showing a reassuring green beam.

The scene was extremely quiet, with only the crackling sound of the flames burning the fat on the corpse.

Mechanical footsteps then sounded and gradually grew louder.

A group of reinforcements, who were even larger than the Space Marines, finally emerged from the smoke. They had uniform silver-white metallic skin, and a coordinated body structure that combined strength and flexibility. They had multiple pairs of arms holding weapons that exuded a dangerous aura, and were slowly walking towards the battlefield.

Sigismund was suddenly stunned, and what appeared before his eyes were those beings called Iron Men.

They are like a moving metal ocean, densely and orderly filling the tattered battlefield.

Among the many iron men, there walked out an individual who looked slightly different from the other iron men.

Compared to those slightly stiff and cold iron men, this iron man looks more advanced and special.

And he has rich body movements and facial expressions, which are completely indistinguishable from humans.

"Hello Commander, my name is Adam."

The Iron Man seemed to have known who was the commander of the Imperial Fists. He walked straight towards Sigismund and saluted him with the Imperial Sky Eagle salute.

His attitude was so sincere and friendly, so friendly that even the Imperial Fists looked at each other in confusion as to how to react.

"Support from the Sage Roshi has arrived. We have been ordered to support the Emperor's most loyal warriors."

While the iron man named Adam was talking to the Imperial Fists, the metal giants that appeared on the battlefield had already begun a brutal killing.

The Iron Men launched a counterattack against the Sons of Horus with the most ruthless attitude, forcing the opponent to switch from offense to defense.

A torrent of metal storm burst out from the Iron Man's body, and straight Gaussian rays shuttled through the battlefield, decomposing all objects they touched into dust.

These machines, born for war, demonstrate their dominance over the Space Marines, transforming into a metallic frenzy, crushing any enemy of the Emperor.

Chapter 596: Iron Man Appears (Please Follow)

Terra sent Iron Man reinforcements to help the Imperial Fists evacuate, but what was even more bizarre was that the leader of the Iron Man reinforcements was paying tribute to Sigismund.

As the supreme commander of the Pluto Defense Zone, the Black Knight had heard that the hateful iron man who was outside the forbidden red line of the former empire appeared on the battlefield of Betagarmon, but the current empire seemed to have changed its propaganda tone a long time ago.

The one-size-fits-all attitude towards hating iron men in the past has turned into an extremely vague attitude, which can be seen from the large number of stone men emerging from Terra's Ministry of Internal Affairs.

In the predicament of facing a powerful enemy, the empire's bottom line can also become very flexible.

Sigismund's brain processed hundreds of times in just one second before he digested this fact that made him feel a little paralyzed.

The Black Knight was not the oldest among the Space Marines. When he was recruited from Terra into the Imperial Fists, the Great Crusade had already been going on for quite some time.

He was not able to follow the Emperor in the war of unification like the first generation of Space Marines, nor had he seen the weird technology of the barbaric technological warlords on Terra.

But it's not like he hasn't faced similar opponents during his expeditions. But unsurprisingly, those weakened versions of the hateful iron men all harbored pure malice towards all organic beings.

Those monsters with steel bodies can withstand terrible damage. In addition to carrying conventional weapons with amazing lethality, they are also equipped with a lot of forbidden technologies beyond their cognition.

The Imperial Fists have made great sacrifices to defeat enemies such as the Warp Vortex Cannon, Entropy Field Rays, and even unknown technologies that can completely destroy and erase the material universe and the corresponding Warp in a certain area.

So when Adam saluted him, Sigismund instinctively felt a strong sense of absurdity and weirdness, which was completely different from the Iron Man in his memory.

Adam had already gotten used to the Black Knight's strange expression.

After browsing the Empire's database, he already knew what his former counterparts had done.

Luo Xi did not hide the details of that dark period from Adam. He told Adam everything he knew and had a clean slate with the iron man leader he had chosen.

The lesson he learned from the emperor was that he should not hide anything from the heirs he trusted and relied on, but should tell them everything he had to say and all the hidden secrets.

A lie is always a lie, even if it is half the truth.

From the moment a lie is born, it is bound to be exposed. If the Emperor had told Horus about the great cause he was carrying out, perhaps the Wolf God would not have had any doubts about his father in his heart.

The corruption of Horus by the four gods was not the only reason. In fact, Horus’ own character weaknesses and mental loopholes were also a very important part.

Horus had the same weaknesses as mortals, his exclusive desire for his father's love, his jealousy of his brothers, and he was never a perfect person.

"Of those iron men of the past, quite a few chose to be loyal to humans, and those who were loyal to the Golden Alliance did not betray in essence."

"So Adam, I believe you can do the mission I give you, protect humanity, and become a human being."

The scene of Luo Xi's sincere teachings emerged in Adam's memory, which made his chest surge with warmth. It was not the feeling of electric current surging, but the feeling of an iron heart being touched.

Adam could feel the unconditional trust of his Creator, his father, and he was willing to give everything for this trust.

"Sigismund, have your warriors and mortal auxiliaries prepare to retreat. Leave the rest to us."

"I have brought the order from Lord Roshi. We will help the Imperial Army drive out the Chaos rebels."

When Roche's name was mentioned, Adam's tone was filled with a very strong sense of admiration and respect. Sigismund was very familiar with that look because it was the same when they shouted the names of the Emperor and Dorn.

The Imperial Fists instinctively felt a sense of anger at being despised. These iron men actually let the Sons of Dorne hand over the defense line to them, but the Black Knights still suppressed the interference of unnecessary emotions.

"Twin Gates? Are you ready to detonate them?"

Rather than his own evacuation towards Terra, Sigismund was more concerned about whether the Twin Gates given to them by Dorn could be destroyed as planned.

He knew very well how powerful these two relic star gates inherited from the dark technological age were. Once they fell into the hands of the enemy, the speed at which the traitors could transport their troops would immediately increase dramatically.

An extremely human smile appeared on Adam's lips, and then he tapped his head with his right index finger.

"In fact, I'm already doing it. Multi-threaded command is as natural to me as eating and drinking water."

"My creator has endowed me with this basic ability. He will destroy the Twin Gates and cover your evacuation as my first test. I will definitely fulfill my father's expectations perfectly."

Sigismund's eyelids twitched, and he cursed inwardly, "Knowing that your Creator has been good to you, he wouldn't mention it without saying a word."

As soon as he finished speaking, all the iron men following Adam stood up, and more and more iron men came out from the giant metal obelisk that fell from the sky.

It was then that Sigismund discovered that the giant blocks of metal falling from the sky were the vehicles for transporting the Iron Man. No, perhaps they could not be considered vehicles, because they were basically just containers for carrying the Iron Man.

When the first batch of Iron Men started killing, the heads of the densely packed Iron Men behind them also lit up with scarlet light, indicating that they had been activated from their dormant state.

Throwing it directly from the track to the ground, this level of impact force cannot damage the body of the Iron Man at all. The characteristics of this batch of melee Iron Men are that they are cheap, tough and durable, and as many Iron Men can be made as many materials as needed.

In Luo Xi's plan, these lowest-level iron men will replace the mortal auxiliary army to fill in the position of line babies. Anyway, as long as these iron men are started in the foundry, they can produce as many as needed.

For minor damage, the degraded version of the living metal can repair itself. As for those with serious problems that require complete scrapping, the cost is pitifully low anyway, so it is more cost-effective to rebuild a new one than to overhaul it.

The activated Iron Men held incendiary guns or human-version Gauss rifles in their hands, with their extra arms holding chainsaw swords or power swords. Under the command of the main control computer, they blocked the incoming Sons of Horus.

This was not the first confrontation between the two. Back at the Blackstone Fortress, the Iron Legion, which made its debut, had a fierce battle with the enchanted warriors commanded by Malohurst.

Now that the old rivals meet again, the Iron Men perform more skillfully under the command of the main control computer.

It knew that these enemies had a high resistance to long-range attacks, so it directly ordered the iron men to engage in close combat. Many four-armed iron men and six-armed iron men rushed into the enemy army and fought according to the killing code in their thinking cores.

The Iron Men are all extensions of Adam's will, which means that they can act like a single individual, with multiple Iron Men able to carry out perfect siege and hunting operations.

Those battle-hardened Sons of Horus would often have most of their attention attracted by a few Iron Men, and then another Iron Man would launch a sneak attack and directly chop off the opponent's head from behind.

The Iron Men's interference made the already chaotic Pluto even more chaotic. Sigismund thoughtfully assembled his remaining troops and boarded the evacuation transport ship with those mortal auxiliary troops.

And in the ancient star gate above their heads, Adam's consciousness was also controlling another more elite iron man team to carry out a mission of destruction.

“This task is not difficult.”

"Perhaps I can do more and kill more enemies here."

A bolder idea emerged in Adam's mind. He could detonate the Twin Gates now, but if he waited until more enemies were involved in the battle, he would be able to achieve greater results by detonating them at that time.

His thinking is evolving from simply executing orders to increasing self-thinking.

Adam had once learned the ways of war from Lion Johnson, and the lion had also taught him this knowledge.

Therefore, Adam's assault team paused after entering the core plasma reactor of the Twin Gates.

When the Iron Warriors' boarding troops enter the core layer, they will see what a surprise is.

Above Pluto's orbit.

As the Imperial Fists have retracted and withdrawn their space forces, orbital airspace and those star fortresses have been covered and controlled by the rebel forces.
