Warhammer III

Chapter 30: The Fifth Planet and Landing Preparations



After the Blackstone Fortress arrived at the fifth planet, it activated the psychic teleportation turret. After several days of teleportation, the Tiamat expeditionary force all moved to the fifth planet.

In addition to the black ships of the Tribunal, the warships docked on the Blackstone Fortress have successively entered the synchronous orbit of the fifth planet to prevent the insect nest tentacles from coming to prey on the expeditionary force.

The fifth planet is completely an alien planet. This planet is covered by dense jungles, and dangerous alien creatures are hidden on the moist surface. It is dominated by gray-white multi-legged alien animals and carnivorous plants deep underground.

Multi-legged aliens look like branches with many branches from a distance. Apart from a big mouth, they have no organs the same as humans when viewed up close. The predatory vines of carnivorous plants are hidden in the soil, and any prey will be entangled and suffocated if they are not careful. .

Because of the presence of Tyranid genes in the alien organisms, all life on the planet has formed a basic psychic network, which is more extensive than the psychic network of the Genestealer sect. All animals and plants are included in this network, forming a unified ecosystem.

Not long after the expeditionary force stepped onto the ground, they were attacked by alien creatures on the planet. Although the individual attacks of these alien creatures were far inferior to those of Tyranids, the expeditionary force actually faced the entire ecosystem of the planet.

The expeditionary force quickly launched a counterattack, cooperated with the bombing of warships in orbit, and began to clear the planet of alien creatures.

In order to decipher the Tyranid genes implanted in these alien creatures, Sage Della led several technical priests to take the opportunity to capture a large number of alien creatures.

The Sage of Della prepares to isolate the Tyranid genes within them and attempt to decipher their vast psychic network to counter the Genestealer's infiltration of the Imperial world.

At the same time, Blackstone Fortress carried the Ninth Brotherhood to Ziapuria. This mission must be successful.

"Grand Master, the Terminator armor we have in stock can arm half of our brothers."

Nelson reported the situation to Taiyue. Although the Ninth Operation Group only set up two Terminator squads, the Terminator armor was in stock, and all Terminator armor would be used only when facing strong enemies.

"The Emperor's blessing, except for the Think Tank, all brothers will wear armor according to the time they joined the Ninth Brotherhood to serve. Brothers who are not assigned to Terminator armor will stay on the Blackstone Fortress."

Taiyue issued the order, and the veterans of the Ninth Brotherhood basically participated in the battle to land the biological structure, while the Brotherhood think tank and newcomers stayed on the Blackstone Fortress.

As the think tank leader of the Ninth Brotherhood, Bruce also wanted to act with Tai Yue, but Tai Yue gave him command of the Blackstone Fortress, and annihilating the insect nest spacecraft was also an important task.

According to Taiyue's arrangement, a total of 58 people participated in this operation. A total of six teams, including five terminator teams and a fearless team, all gathered in the center of the teleportation turret.

Tai Yue distributed the poison 'Psychic Sorrow' from the Haemonculi one by one to the brothers of the five Terminator teams, and he himself brought two tubes of poison and connected them to the mechanical tentacles extended from the power armor.

The Fearless Team carries magma bombs. These bombs are the weapons needed to be used in the Thai-Vietnam plan. The Ninth Brotherhood will bury these lava bombs inside biological structures and then detonate them to destroy biological structures.

Magma bombs are the most commonly prepared bombs for the bombardment turrets of Imperial Navy battleships or Astartes battleships, and can also be mounted as warheads on torpedoes.

The heat generated by a magma bomb explosion is so intense that it can incinerate the strongest planetary defenses or the most durable battleship armor plating. When used directly on a planet's surface, it causes rivers and other isolated bodies of water to boil, leaving behind dust and exposed bedrock surfaces.

Lava bombs are very suitable for dealing with the flesh and blood structure of psychic lighthouses. Taiyue modified the ship-based lava bombs, leaving the core of the ammunition for the fearless team to carry.

(The eleven planets in the Tiamat system are based on Mesopotamian mythology, and the creatures on the fifth planet are written based on Rahmu among the eleven monsters born in Tiamat. There are very few official descriptions of the Tiamat Hive Fleet. I can only write it according to the corresponding mythology and try to fit the background of Warhammer 40K).
