Warhammer III

Chapter 38: Evacuation of the Surface and the Eldar Fleet



Jerome, who was in the battle, suddenly received a communication from the Blackstone Fortress. His Terminator armor was not damaged, and he could communicate normally through the only remaining Thunderhawk gunboat as a transit.

"Emperor, brothers, hold on, support is coming soon!"

After the communication, Jerome immediately encouraged the brothers who were still fighting, and then came to Taiyue to inform him of the content of the communication.

Taiyue rejected Nelson and others' direct support plan and asked them to give priority to defending the Blackstone Fortress. Nelson immediately arranged an airdrop plan for weapons, ammunition and power armor.

Soon after, twelve airdrop capsules fell from the sky, like falling meteors. Jerome guided the landing position of the airdrop capsules while fighting.

Ten airdrop capsules finally landed successfully. The shock wave generated during the landing killed a large number of Tyranid creatures. The other two airdrop capsules collided with the Tyranid flying troops, deviated from the orbit and crashed into the corrupted ocean.

The airdrop cabin opened the hatch directly. After the exposed automatic artillery cleared the approaching Tyranid creatures, a large number of heavy-duty servitors rushed out from six of the airdrop cabins. Although their movements were mechanical and simple, the powerful firepower they carried quickly harvested the lives of the enemies.

Tai Yue and Jerome immediately led the six surviving brothers to the location of the airdrop cabin, and with the cover of the airdrop cabin and the heavy-duty servitors, everyone finally got a respite.

"Emperor bless, I almost detonated the Dreadnought mech!"

Adrian was dragged to a safe place. Not only were his feet paralyzed, but the cables of the power fists were also damaged, and he had no combat ability.

The situation of the other two Dreadnought brothers was slightly better. Their Dreadnought mechs were dilapidated, but they were still able to move.

Only three people survived the Terminator team. They survived by activating the power of the mechanical heart by themselves, otherwise they would have been eaten up by the Tyranid Zerg.

After a short rest, Taiyue took out the maintenance equipment from the airdrop chamber and repaired the damaged dreadnought. The other brothers immediately put on the supporting power armor and replenished their weapons and ammunition.

Everyone joined the battle again, and the bombs roared on the battlefield again!

The hive consciousness immediately hatched a large number of ion cannon bugs and poisonous smoke bugs. The former carried out long-range attacks, trying to destroy the fire cover of the airdrop chamber, and the latter changed the battlefield environment to create conditions for more Tyranid creatures to sneak attack.

The ion cannon bugs moved slowly, and after reaching the predetermined location, their limbs firmly grasped the ground, and the plasma turret symbionts on their backs began to aim at the airdrop chamber in the battlefield.

The ion cannon bug is actually a vehicle for transporting the plasma turret symbiont. The symbiont has its own consciousness and directly controls the aiming and firing.

"Boom"

After the symbiont locked the target, the biological plasma ball shot towards the airdrop chamber and the battlefield where Taiyue and others were.

As living chemical weapons, the poisonous smoke bugs have gas-filled and bulging sac-like tissues under their thick carapaces, and they continuously release pale yellow spore clouds through the chitinous structure on their backs that is like a chimney.

These poisonous spore clouds can cover the Tyranid creatures and block the sight of the imperial forces. The spore clouds quickly drifted towards the battlefield where Taiyue was located, and the poisonous smoke bugs took the opportunity to lurk in the spore clouds.

Its body moves as easily as a balloon, and its multiple tentacles drip with venom, ready to pull its prey into the poisonous cloud at any time. These poisonous gases and venoms cannot be easily resolved even by the multiple lungs and pebble kidneys of the Astartes.

At the same time, the last Thunder Eagle gunship finally had the opportunity to land in front of everyone. The other four Thunder Eagle gunships had been shot down by the Tyranid air force and crashed completely.

After Taiyue opened fire to disperse the approaching poisonous cloud and killed a poisonous smoke bug, he turned around and shouted loudly:

"Emperor bless, brothers, retreat!"

Jerome looked at the biological shells in the sky and immediately concentrated his mind to deploy a multi-layered psychic field to protect the Thunder Eagle gunship and resist the bombardment of the ion cannon bugs.

Other brothers boarded the Thunder Eagle gunship one after another, leaving the heavy machine servants to defend the position. All the brothers who survived within a minute finally successfully retreated to the Thunder Eagle gunship.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

Taiyue drove the Thunder Eagle gunship vertically into the sky, with twin heavy bombs and turbo laser cannons leading the way, pouring ammunition without reservation, and shooting down all the Tyranid flying troops blocking the way.

"Alarm! Exhausted ammunition"

When the warning sound of the Cygnus machine soul sounded, the Thunder Eagle gunship had broken through the atmosphere and headed for the Blackstone Fortress.

Tai Yue looked at the Blackstone Fortress surrounded by hive ships in the distance, and immediately connected to the regular communication to contact Bruce, the think tank, and learned about the current situation of the Blackstone Fortress.

The Blackstone Fortress was landed by the Tyranids twice. The first time was when the biological construct interfered with the Flame Field Psychic Turret. A hive ship finally broke through the defense network of the Blackstone Fortress and entered the interior of the Blackstone Fortress.

The number of Tyranid creatures entering the Blackstone Fortress for the first time was limited. Varda and the Ninth Brotherhood Think Tank used the mobile buildings of the Blackstone Fortress to successfully disperse and eliminate the invaders.

The second invasion continued to this day. The returning hive tentacles rushed to the Blackstone Fortress at all costs. These new hive ships had great resistance to the attacks of the psychic turrets and exhausted the subspace energy in the void lightning psychic turrets.

After the hive mothership approached the Blackstone Fortress, it fired a large number of boarding hatch nests, and finally broke through the blockade of the close defense guns with its numerical advantage. Countless Tyranid creatures poured into the Blackstone Fortress!

Currently, the Blackstone Fortress has activated the Rift Shield Psionic Turret to prevent the Hive Fleet from approaching the Blackstone Fortress again, but it will be a matter of time before this Psyturret exhausts the subspace energy.

Tai Yue felt a headache when he heard this. There was no doubt that the hive ship had evolved again and became resistant to the attack mode of the psychic turret.

Now there are Tyranids inside the fortress, and there are Tyranids outside the fortress. The Ninth Brotherhood cannot destroy so many Tyranid creatures together. The First Fleet is still fighting another insect nest tentacle on the outer edge of the galaxy.

Just as Taiyue was thinking about how to bypass the insect nest spacecraft and return to the Blackstone Fortress, he happened to catch a glimpse of a large number of alien warships arriving here.

Neither the auspices on Blackstone Fortress nor the Tyranid biological warships discovered this fleet in advance, indicating that this fleet probably used stealth technology and could only be observed at close range.

These alien warships range in size from large to small. The front end of the warship is a yellow hull with a smooth outline, and various blue sails are spread out from the rear end.

"The battleship of the Eldar, the Arkworld, or the Eldar pirates? Are they here to rob the Blackstone Fortress?"

Tai Yue frowned, and many thoughts flashed through his mind. He would not think that the Eldar fleet appeared at this time to support the Imperial fleet.

"boom!"

The Eldar fleet's pulse light spears and plasma macrocannons suddenly fired, and they began to attack the Hive Fleet!
