Chapter 631 Battle of the Beasts: Combine the Fleet
A huge golden skull gleamed in the dim sunlight, its eye sockets were filled with darkness, while above its head there were twinkling lights shining from the barrels of two majestic giant cannons that were slowly raised. Several thick pipes extended from the base, and they penetrated into the gap between the two temple buildings.
Thick black pipes descended from the sky and dropped from a height on the deck. Several huge mechanical arms descended from the surrounding walls, holding them firmly with giant mechanical claws without sweeping around on the deck. Affects ongoing preparations on the ground.
After the closed cabin on the side of the heavy pipeline was opened, one of the several energy tubes contained in it was pulled out, and a strong arm embraced it, pulling it out of the dark pipeline, "I count one Two three, get ready!"
The veterans of the ground crew of a certain grade yelled at the young ground crew behind them. They all wore sleeves rolled up on their arms, and some took off their coats and joined the team wearing only a thin vest. Among them, the female navy soldiers have smooth abdominal muscles, which look small and delicate when attached to their lower abdomen.
The men and women grabbed the branch pipes together from behind, and the navy veteran waved his hand to the servitor at the side, "You big iron **** come over too." "Us, shall we?" "Otherwise? Are there other iron **** here? "
"Come here quickly!" the veteran roared, and the arm holding the pipe suddenly exerted force, and the strong muscles burst from his arm in an instant, "Everyone! Pull!"
The old soldier yanked back, and the young people behind him also tried their best. Their military boots rubbed against the ground and made a hissing sound. Open it, and after a jet of air is blown out, force is exerted instantly, and the rotation axis of the elbow rotates, but it is closed and locked instantly.
The pipe was tightly pulled by the thick main pipe, as if another group of people were pulling it inside, as if they were playing a tug-of-war with the navy members outside, "Use a little force! One, two, three, pull!"
The muscles on the veteran's arms were all tensed, like a piece of stone. He was holding on to the pipe, and the marines behind him also retreated with all their strength, leaving scratches on the ground with their footsteps. It is the traces of flickering all over the ground.
The mechanical iron foot stepped on the ground, and the rotation shaft at the ankle joint screamed and rotated, but it was locked tightly, and the entire button trembled violently, as if it was about to snap.
"It's not very common for you guys." A man leaned close to the old soldier, and he also pulled up his sleeves, grasping the front end of the pipe firmly with both hands. The old soldier looked aside and saw the back of the arm. There was a gap in the skin, and a closure flap popped out.
The thing that looked like a human hand changed its appearance in an instant, a mechanical cover popped open on the back of the hand, a cloud of smoke sprayed out from it, and a long row of thin rows opened on both sides of the elbow in an instant. At the mouth of the mouth, a billowing heat wave was ejected from it, as if a ball of flames had filled the air.
"Judge?" "Exactly, it seems that you need help, right? Lancelot is here to help." Vito said that the mechanical arm of his right hand held the pipe, and waved his other hand to call for help. The bodies of the marines were instantly enveloped by a cloud of shadows. They raised their heads to look at him, and saw a flashing wing helmet.
The wings on the top of the wing helmet walked under the light, came to the pipe and stretched out his arms, and hugged the thick pipe behind Vito. Vito glanced at him and smiled jokingly, Then raised three fingers to the sailors behind, "I count three two one, three, two, one, pull!"
Following Vito's order, the people behind him immediately exerted all their strength. Lancelot half-kneeled on the ground to match their height, and the armor worn by the space warrior's thighs slowly rubbed against his face, making a piercing scream. At the same time, large sparks were ejected, and Lancelot's arm suddenly grabbed forward, holding the front half of the pipe.
Vito also tugged at the pipes. Rows of heat pipes were opened on his mechanical right arm, and waves of heat radiated around his arm. His human-looking fingers clenched tightly, and then slammed The last tug tautened the pipe that had popped out from behind the paneled door.
It let out a hissing sound, and it clattered firmly against the door. Vito's other hand also grabbed it, and the leg in the silver boot took a step forward. The human hand also slammed With force, the muscles burst out in an instant, and row after row looked like small space fighters.
And behind him, the real space warrior's fingers gripped the pipe tightly, and pulled it out backwards as if grasping the soft neck under the armor layer of the Tyranid war beast. It was pulled off, and the pipe in it was still quite strong, so it was pulled out instead of being pulled off.
It hit the ground hard, causing the sailors dragged behind to recede and sit down on the ground. The sweaty men and women patted each other's shoulders, took each other's arms and pulled them up. Their arms There was a burst of soreness, and they all shook their palms with a wry smile.
The veteran sat on the ground, rubbed his forearm, and stretched out a hand in front of him. The mechanical exhaust vent on the seemingly human palm was closing, and the gap disappeared after closing. It looks like a real human palm again, "This way of maintenance is rare."
"But it's also the fastest." The veteran stretched out his hand to hold that hand, and he was pulled up from the ground, "In this way, we don't have to wait for the maintenance truck from the Mechanic Church to come, and our people can directly change the line. There's going to be a war."
Said the veteran, he turned around and waved to the ground crew beside the transport vehicle. The latter nodded immediately, and unloaded several large tool boxes from the carriage. They carried them on their shoulders together and ran to drag By the side of the pipe coming out, the sailors on the side laughed jokingly and patted the shoulders of the squatting maintenance personnel.
"Come on, try to make it more reliable, our arms are useless, and we can't pull them out when the machine crashes suddenly." The navy on the side rubbed his shoulders and said with a smile, turning around to look To the comrades behind him, "After all, the people from the Mechanicus were called over. I guess when they arrive, we will have already had breakfast for the next day at the Golden Throne." "Hahahahaha!"
People laughed and sat on the pipe with their arms around each other's shoulders. Vito glanced at the priests of the Mechanicus who were on the gunnery deck. They looked back and murmured, "Flesh and blood waste .”
After that, they continued to turn around and studied the several tablets held on the mechanical arm behind them. The priests of the Mechanicism gathered together and pointed at the surrounding weapon arrays with their hands. The servants were standing on those tall In front of the wall-like integrated data board, the tiny welding gun on his arm sprayed flames on it.
"How soon will you be ready?" Vito asked, leaning on the pipe with one hand on his hips. He raised his arm and rotated the wrist of the robot. The ion cannon protruded a small part from it, but quickly retracted.
"A few minutes, and then the light spear can fire, and we will calibrate its aiming unit so that it doesn't have to be skewed." "It's best, remember last time? Cole asked you to shoot at seven o'clock." Target, but you fired until nine o'clock, blowing up the space station there and ruining our supplies." "We went hungry together for half a month before we found the next supply point." "I promise it won't happen again, my lord." "Better, I'll make an appointment with Ezio to cook lamb chops for the next dinner on board."
Vito leaned on the pipe, leaning here with his arms folded, suddenly a flash of light shone down from the gap in the spear pipe above, illuminating the part of Vito's mechanical arm that hadn't changed back, and they all flickered From the conspicuous beam of light, Lancelot was the first to discover the glare above his head.
He raised his head and looked up, and Vito and the veteran also raised their heads and saw the portal appearing above their heads, a flash of lightning spewed out from the flickering portal torn from the cosmic space, and within that lightning, a silver The skull appeared from it, followed by heavy artillery, dense automatic artillery groups, and rows of tall buildings inside.
The Angel of Judgment holding a sword drove out from behind the halo of the portal. On both sides behind her, the barrels of two light spear cannons turned around, pointing to the universe ahead like the sword she held.
The giant ship's plasma thrusters roared fiercely, pushing the hull to appear from behind the portal, and more portals flashed around it, and giant ships sailed out of them, the smaller ones The frigates flew alongside the largest battleship, like swords hovering around it.
The same giant ship is not one. The dense portal flashes behind the huge dark side of the planet on the side almost illuminate the surface of its dark part. The flickering halo is like the rising sun, lighting up the entire surface of the planet.
"It seems that our friends are here. Keep working hard. I'm going to entertain the guests first." Vito patted the sore shoulder of the veteran. The latter glanced at Lancelot and walked away. The latter also glanced at the veteran and nodded to him before following him.
The veteran stood under the gun barrel, looking at the cosmic night sky above his head lit up by a flash of teleportation. The dark cosmic background became colorful under the subspace waves released from the portal, like a palette in the hands of an artist That way, and they, those battleships are sailing on that disk.

Vito passed through the corridor outside the bridge. He looked at the flickering portals outside the window. Battleships came out of them one after another. The smaller frigates were ejected instantly, as if they appeared suddenly. The other moved slowly, slowly appearing from behind the door under the roar of the thrusters.
Another battlecruiser of the same level as the Infinity Frontier sailed out from behind the portal, and the flames ejected from the huge thrusters at the end pierced the veil of the universe, shining the gorgeous firelight on Vito's face, and On Lancelot's helmet behind him, the dark angel's high wings glowed with luster.
"It seems that there are quite a few people here, not bad." Vito turned his head, flicked his fingers and walked out from behind the door on the side of the bridge. In front of the console and terminal on the side of the captain's high platform, the navy sitting at the table The officers and soldiers turned their heads and nodded to him when they saw him, but no one stood up.
These boring etiquettes are not used on Vito’s ship, he nodded to them, and then walked past the huge French windows, the gorgeous light shone in from the outside, and shone on the officers and soldiers sitting around, making them feel the same The shadow of the console was so long that it almost covered the entire ground.
Vito walked over from the shadows, he walked around the high platform, and walked up the high platform at the steps between the two low stone pillars lit by the thruster fire, on the stone pillars, standing at the beak of the navy eagle above There was a flash of light flowing all the way to the end of the beak.
Vito stepped onto the high platform, "A lot of friends came here, I take back what I said before, we are still very popular." "Welcome people will not be late." Cole said standing on the side of the holographic terminal with his hands behind his back. The bust images of all the capital ship captains who arrived here have flashed beside him, their names and ship numbers are all emerging below the images.
The captains wore different uniforms, some in blue from the Imperial Navy, others in gray from the Sector Defense Fleet, with long trench coat capes, and others dressed luxuriously, holding a diamond-encrusted scepter. Rogue traders, among them there was even an Anglican bishop in a red robe.
"People from the state religion are here too?" "We came as soon as we received your call, Your Excellency the Judge." The bishop lowered his head and put his hands on his chest and said humbly. Vito smiled and turned aside The rogue trader, he was wearing a dark green luxury top, "What about you? The rogue trader also remembered the loyalty to the empire?" "We have always been loyal to the empire, but... I also hope to sell a favor to the court, My fleet is at your service, my lord, and I hope you will remember my kindness." "Oh, I would, if we had not died."
After Vito said, the captain of the Imperial Navy who was beside the Rogue Trader looked over, "What are we going to deal with?" "That thing is on the other side of the planet, it is very conspicuous, it is as big as a planet." A battle moon." Cole said, looking at the captain with his hands behind his back, the latter froze immediately, and the imperial captains around him frowned and looked at each other.
"Battle moon?" Another captain said cautiously, and he exchanged glances with the captain on the other side, "What battle moon?" The kind used by the greenskins on Terra, you should know, unless you didn't pay attention in class."
Vito said with a joking smile that the captains in front of him all looked at each other and whispered to each other. The Rogue Trader also held his chin in thought, touching the many gemstones on the top of his scepter with his fingers.
Vito and Cole looked at each other and then laughed. He stood in front of everyone with his hands behind his back and laughed, "Don't rush to re-evaluate the investment risk, Mr. Rogue Trader, I assure you that you will get what you want "But you have to be alive. Forgive my lord, I have also attended a noble academy and listened to courses about fighting the moon in the Beast War. The book said that that thing can easily destroy an entire planet." "This It's true, it just destroyed one."
The captains talked to each other, they whispered to each other and approached each other, and the atmosphere of retreating before the battle had spread among the captains of the defense forces who had never fought, and the captains of the Werewolf Traders.
"But tell me, everyone, what did the book say at the end?" Vito asked with his hands behind his back, scanning the captains in front of him with his eyes, then gestured to the captain who asked the question first, and looked at his name. , "Come and tell everyone, Captain Bahrain of the Imperial Skyhawk battlecruiser."
He hesitated for a moment, then glanced at his colleagues on both sides, "Destroyed." "Destroyed by who?" "Imperial Navy and space fighters." "Behind me is Lancelot Goron Ni, Dark Angel, as you can see he is a Space Marine."
Vito motioned to Lancelot behind him, and he immediately took a step forward, standing proudly behind Vito with the power sword on his waist, like a mountain of steel, even on the holographic images of the surrounding ships, it could not be completely The displayed body, the entire tall upper body is flickering on the edge of the nothingness image.
"Imperial Navy, and Space Marines, isn't that all?" Vito said with a joke behind his back, and the captains looked at each other, "But Judge, there is only one Space Marine here, and if I remember correctly , At that time, there were several" "Several warbands, to deal with the boundless green skin army, it is indeed necessary to have several space warrior chapters, but we don't need it, we only need to deal with a battle moon."
Cole took a step forward and stood beside Vito to cooperate with him. The captain raised his hand and waved in front of him, "As the judge said, all the other warships of the Greenskins have been dealt with. Now only There's a single battle moon, and we have 50 battleships including Infinity Frontier, and 12 battlecruisers."
Vito smiled jokingly, and shrugged his shoulders to signal the captains in front of him, "The sum of your ships is more than enough to deal with an invading Chaos fleet, right? And we only need to deal with a poorly made ball." "But" the captain was still a little worried, he and his colleagues looked at each other.
Vito laughed and shrugged helplessly, "Or do you mean that your ship is more shabby than the green-skinned ones, and you think you are inferior to pirates? The pirates I have seen are more courageous than you."
"You are also worthy to be the Imperial Navy? What is our motto?" Cole put his arms in his arms one after another, raised his head and glanced at the captains in front of him, "The Imperial Navy is the vanguard." "That's right, And what about you? The Imperial Navy is at the vanguard, and you can only be deserters." "We won't be deserters!" "Oh, really? Why didn't I see it?" Vito immediately smiled awkwardly He said, "I only saw a group of sissies, complaining here and there, complaining about that, sissy pirates who are afraid of winning a situation with ten times the advantage, you are actually from the army, right?"
"Everyone! Go back to your respective ships, load your weapons and prepare to attack!" The captain at the head clenched his fists and shouted at his colleagues, and then closed his own image, and his half-body projection disappeared after a flash , the surrounding naval captains also disappeared, and finally only the bishop of the state church and the rogue trader remained.
Vito looked at the bishop of the state religion first, and nodded to him, "In the name of the emperor, your death will be exchanged for the light of the emperor to illuminate this star field again, and you will become the torch of the emperor." His wish, as the Holy Word says, "Turn my body into a blazing fire! ""
The Anglican bishop also turned off the video, and disappeared with fanatical enthusiasm for faith. Now Vito is not worried that no one will volunteer to be the target of attracting fire and the first person to charge.
"Judge." The Rogue Trader looked at Vito after everyone had left, his fingers gently stroking the diamond inlaid on the scepter, "The bishop got the faith he wanted, and the captains of the navy can Get the honor they treasure, and I" "You'll get the franchise license, tax-free in the future Tempest sector." "Ah, as I thought, then I'll say goodbye, I have to go to the franchise .I mean, prepare for the next battle."
Vito showed him a playful smile, then nodded, "Of course, I wish you a prosperous business in the future." "I also wish you a smooth future, the Emperor favors you, Inquisitor." "You really plan to give him the entire star sector tax-free license?" Cole asked after the Rogue Trader disappeared, with his arms in his arms, while Vito shrugged with a joking smile, "The license is for the living." "You're so ugly." "Thank you Praise."
After Vito finished speaking, he turned around, walked to the handrail of the bridge, and looked out the window at the fleet floating around, as well as the sun's rays gradually appearing from the edge of the planet in front. The sun's brilliance gradually rose from there.
The Infinite Frontier sailed into the bright sunlight, and its entire front half was illuminated by the light. The dazzling light climbed up along the gaps between the buildings, and gradually enveloped the entire ship. The top climbed in, lighting up the entire bridge, Vito behind the handrail, and Cole's face walking beside him.
As the huge outline of the planet moved aside, the huge steel sphere in the sunlight also appeared in the field of vision, and it was suspended alone in the halo of the rising sun in the galaxy.
"Are you ready?" Vito asked, leaning on the armrest, while Cole raised his head, "Ready." "Let's get started, let's light up the stars."
After Vito said, on the top floor of the Infinity Frontier above his head, the barrel of the light spear emerged from the shadows between the magnificent buildings, and behind the dark building shadows, two beams of flashes lit up.
