Chapter 166: Death Star Battle (1)
After unloading the entire Astra Militarum Legion, the Whale-class troop transport quickly took off and left.
The Whale-class troop transport is an ultra-large space troop transport vehicle built specifically for transporting mortal legions.
It does not have very strong firepower and is usually a transport ship operating with the Imperial Navy.
The mortal legions aboard this ship, if they want to successfully land on the battlefield, all they have to do is pray for protection.
This Astra Militarum Legion was lucky, as the Necrons had not deployed any defenses on the surface of the planet.
"520 Squadron Modant 66th City Breaking Legion, I am Legion Commander Cassilant, reporting to Lord Astarte Silfa."
A Mordent warrior wearing a half-helmet and a Cadian-like combat uniform ordered his troops to assemble, then quickly walked towards Space Marine Captain Hilfa.
When he came to Hilfa, he immediately performed the Sky Eagle Salute and then introduced his unit number.
"Okay, start setting up defenses immediately and hollow out the surroundings. We want to eliminate all these aliens here and bury them forever."
Sylfa looked at the Astra Militarum commander standing beside him.
"Yes, Lord Astarte."
Cassilant, commander of the 66th Modant City-Breaking Corps, immediately turned around and trotted back to the troops upon receiving the order.
He then ordered the soldiers to deploy fire defense on the spot.
Some dug defensive trenches in front of the tomb.
The other part drove the Pluto Drilling Machine and the Termite Drilling Machine and plunged into the ground to start digging tunnels.
Thirty million Modan acid dog warriors worked together to make preparations for the war.
"Roar".
Roars like those of wild beasts came from the thick fog.
Then those humanoid creatures with green eyes slowly walked out of the thick fog.
With staggering steps, he kept approaching the position of Squad 520.
"Open fire."
Hilfa's command was heard in the public channel of all soldiers of Squad 520.
The Modant Acid Dog warriors, who had not yet finished setting up their positions, put down their work and started shooting as soon as the order was given.
Beams of red energy penetrated into the approaching green-eyed monsters.
"Lord Hilfa, here is some information about this planet, obtained from the tomb."
The voice of Technical Sergeant Monreal reached Hilfa's ears.
Then a video screen appeared in Hilfa's helmet.
Death Star.
Originally, this was a planet where humans, subhumans, and mutants coexisted.
The location of the tomb is shrouded in thick green radiation fog all year round.
In order to gain more living space and discover more resources, humans began to create various tools to explore this place.
Until he accidentally awakened the Starry Sky Undead Tomb sleeping there.
Since then, the entire Le Onyx galaxy has been plunged into war with the Starry Sky Undead.
Fortunately, the Starry Sky Undead's awakening time was not long this time, and in order to repair a Starry Sky Undead artifact, Pharaoh Talari did not attack too many areas of the Le Mangate galaxy.
Finally, for some unknown reason, the Death Star's radiation fog expanded until it covered the entire planet.
In order to prevent the powerful Starry Sky Undead from being disturbed again, the Gwalir Empire took control of the planet.
No space vessels are allowed to approach, including trade transports.
These aliens wandering in the thick fog outside the tomb are monsters that have evolved due to radiation infection.
They are immortal and forever wander around the surface of the planet, devouring all living things that come to this planet.
Hillfa turned off the imaging device and gained some understanding of these aliens.
"Immediately order the troops to equip themselves with flamethrower weapons."
In order to prevent the aliens on this planet from disappearing completely, Sylfa decided to exterminate them all.
Technical Sergeant Monreal immediately took out a large number of flamethrowers from the squad's space arsenal.
It was handed over to the auxiliary servitors and distributed to some Space Marines.
The Modant Acid Dog Warriors took out their special weapons.
A transmitter that releases highly acidic bacteria.
This is a kind of strong acid bacteria with powerful corrosive ability that the high-ranking officials of the Warhammer Terra Empire once asked them to mine.
After the Modantes were conscripted into the army, they kept some of this highly acidic bacteria and made them into various weapons of war.
This played a huge role in their future efforts to clear out mutants for the empire.
Soon, because of the Space Marines' change of uniforms, they accidentally discovered the weaknesses of these radiation-infected and mutated creatures.
If a little bit of flame touches their bodies, they will instantly turn into fireballs.
This is true no matter how big the monster is.
This made the subsequent battle extremely smooth.
But at this moment.
There was a huge sound of mechanical operation in the tomb.
Then, pairs of starry sky undead warriors with blue eyes flashing slowly walked out from the tomb gate.
"Allow some of them to deal with these alien creatures in the sky."
As soon as Hilfa finished speaking, some Space Marines immediately turned their guns and started shooting at these Starry Sky Undead Warriors.
At the same time, some vehicles turned their guns and began bombarding these Starry Sky Undead Warriors.
A large number of shells poured down at the entrance of the tomb.
The Starry Sky Undead Warriors who had just walked out were cleared out.
Some of the Thunderhawk and Rand gunships that were launching missiles at the monsters broke away from the fighter group and flew towards the entrance of the tomb.
Sudden.
A blue light flashed in the thick fog outside the tomb, and the thick fog began to disperse because of the appearance of the blue light.
Then, a series of blue light gates appeared in the sight of Hilfa and others.
The blue light door opened.
One by one, the Starry Sky Undead Warriors walked out from it.
After these Starry Sky Necromancers appeared, they did not immediately launch an attack on the Space Marines and Astra Militarum positions.
Instead, he first cleared out the monsters surrounding the blue light gate.
These monsters seemed to be enraged, and after a roar, they pounced towards the Starry Sky Undead.
"Whoosh whoosh".
Just as the Starry Sky Undead teleportation light gate opened, dense swarms of Starry Sky Undead Scythe Destroyer fighters flew out from the tomb gate.
Roaring towards the position of Modant's Acid Dog Legion.
Some tanks hurriedly raised their guns and aimed at the swooping Star Undead aircraft to intercept them.
The Thunder Eagle and Rand in the sky also rushed towards these Starry Sky Undead flying vehicles.
As more and more blue lights appeared in the thick fog.
The number of Starry Sky Undead continued to increase, and the surrounding humanoid monsters seemed to have been almost cleared out.
These Starry Sky Undead finally changed direction and headed towards the position of Team 520.
"Calling the fleet, this is Hilfa, coordinates..., conduct a round of orbital bombardment."
Not long after Sylfa issued the orbital bombardment order, balls of light with dazzling tails fell from the sky.
