The Emperor’s Angel of Death

After receiving Armageddon's request for help, the White Templars immediately made preparations for the upcoming war.

As a member of the Empire, it is impossible for them to refuse such a call, and Armageddon is actually not far from Sanctuary. If that important industrial world falls into the hands of the Greenskins, then Sanctuary will also There will never be peace.

The fleet was quickly assembled, because the problem of the network channel was solved, and only a small number of garrison troops needed to be left in the fortress to conduct the most basic patrols.

The orbit of the Sanctuary Star has become a gathering place for almost all battleships, from the largest battleships to the slenderest frigates and mammoth transport ships.

The White Temple's long period of dormancy has allowed them to possess a sizable fleet with more than thirty large and small battleships. Among them, the flagship battle barge 'Heart of Light' is an ancient battleship that has been in service for more than five thousand years. The original body was a natural disaster-class battleship.

The history of this type of battleship is equally ancient. They are often considered to be the forerunners of the Punishment-class battleships thousands of years ago. The advanced technology used to build the multiple lance turrets on them has been lost, making existing ships of this type unable to be replaced.

The terrifying lance arrays on the sides of the Scourge-class battleships are their most obvious feature. These lance arrays can reach a longer range through a repeater that greatly increases the main energy source.

However, the array energy transmission system is notorious for instability under such high pressure. Uncontrolled energy extraction can easily weaken the energy supply of the main engine, causing the Scourge-class battleship to move slowly in battle. Therefore, almost all existing Scourge-class battleships can participate in the battle. Class battleships have limited the range of their lance weapons to medium distances.

The Heart of Light has improved the engine energy transmission array based on the original natural disaster class, so that it will not affect the engine work during long-distance bombardment.

In addition to this powerful battle barge, the White Templars also possess 8 strike cruisers and 2 heavy cruisers, which allow them to deal with most threats in the void and ensure the long-term security of the Sanctuary Star.

Now, these warships are gathered together, waiting for the final departure order.

But before that, there was another meeting with the top leaders of the White Temple.

The location of the meeting is deep in the Heart of Light, a quiet meeting hall, which is also part of a combat system as dense as a spider web.

No one was surprised when Soshyan entered last, some nodding and others banging their fists on their breastplates in welcome.

The Eleventh Legion is no secret in the White Temple. Except for the new recruits, every soldier who puts on power armor knows the dark history that their bloodline once shouldered.

In this regard, Soshiyang is indeed quite surprised, because currently, within the Astral Knights, there are only a dozen or so people who know about the Eleventh Legion.

After Randall learned about the situation of the Astral Knights, he understood this, because the Astral Knights were not strictly speaking "pure". They were a combination of two battle groups, and there was also an unexplainable ingredient hidden in them - Soshiyan. He also informed the other party of the fact that he had taken in some traitors.

His advice is also very simple, take your time.

Coming to the meeting hall, this is not the first time Soshiyang has been here. He had been here two days ago. The White Temple command was here to discuss supply lines, resources, equipment, formations, quantities, combat objectives, and operations. Responsibilities, etc., every soldier can speak and contribute in his or her own field.

Randall, who was presiding over the meeting, would remain silent accordingly, and Soshyan understood the purpose of this—to allow the subordinate commanders to exercise the value of their authority and coordinate their competition with each other.

Obviously, Randall, who has been the leader of the chapter for hundreds of years, is far more experienced in management than Soshyan.

But today, there are not many topics to discuss, because most decisions have been completed two days ago.

"The fleet will depart in ten hours."

Randall gave the order simply and directly.

"We're sailing directly to Armageddon and clearing it of the Greenskin threat. If you have any questions, ask them now."

He proposed a grand war plan so peacefully, but many of the captains of the White Temple smiled, including Soshyan.

Then, the fourth captain of the White Templar and the master of the fleet, Jeffrey Adan, started.

"The fleet is ready, Chapter Commander, and every navigator on every ship in the fleet is ready to jump to the subspace, but now the Sun Star Territory is being shrouded in a subspace storm. At this time, it will be difficult to set off. There was a huge danger and it was my duty to speak out."

Soshyan could see the heavy responsibility on his shoulders, and even felt a pang of sympathy for a moment - as the master of the fleet, he must lead the battle group from illusion to reality, breaking through the cage that even the gods themselves cannot break through. .

"Definitely, that's a problem."

Randall replied humbly:

"But the Soshyan brothers have a solution to this problem, right?"

Soshyan smiled slightly. He had already consulted the person in the survival cabin, and the other person told him that the storm was not serious and was still within her capabilities.

"Yes, the Unbound Soul can lead the fleet through the storm."

"Thank you, my brother."

Randall nodded as he spoke, and then his eyes returned to the fourth company commander.

"Is that possible?"

"certainly."

The fourth company commander no longer expressed doubts and seemed to be convinced of Soshiyang's words.

Randall looked around at everyone.

"Anyone else have questions?"

Everyone looked at each other, and finally it was Second Company Commander Borko Moon who spoke first.

"Why are we so eager to attack?"

He said calmly:

"Although this is not a legal question, as a brother, I still have to ask, why are we setting off at this time? Armageddon's communications have been interrupted for a long time, and we have no way of knowing the situation there. If the greenskins have already occupied Planet, if we plunge into it, we will be very passive. Maybe we should wait for more information, or send an advance team first."

Randall's profound gaze swept across the wall of people and saw everyone's expressions of approval, so he said:

"Why set off at this time? Because we need time, brother, we must arrive at Armageddon before other imperial forces arrive. The subspace storm is an opportunity. While most of the reinforcements are still hesitating on the road, we have been able to arrive first. , Armageddon is an important town with a huge guard force. Unless their commander is a pig, it will never fall so quickly."

"Why are we in such a hurry to get there?"

Randall glanced at Soshyan, who coughed twice and said:

"Because through some channels, we found Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan.com and we guessed that Armageddon is most likely the Ulanor of the past."

What Soshyan did not elaborate on was that this channel was a severe vision Talos had the day before. That vision directly caused the prophet to faint. When he woke up, he immediately grabbed Soshyan's hand and trembled. Tell him tremblingly that Armageddon is Ullanor!

It was the Adeptus Mechanicus who moved Ullanor to this place.

"oh?"

The company commanders all looked surprised, but they didn't know the meaning.

"What's the significance of that?"

"There is a relic here that is of great significance to...the Legion. We must get it no matter what."

Afterwards, Randall took over the conversation. He stood up, took Soshyan's hand to his side, and then asked him to stand in front of his seat. This move made many people raise their eyebrows.

Everyone only knows that the Astral Knights are their blood brothers, but Soshyan's identity Randall has never been announced.

"He has the right to make this request."

Randall faced everyone and said seriously:

"Because Brother Soshyan Alexey is the initial Gray Marrow adapter and the acting commander of the Eleventh Legion."

As soon as this statement came out, everyone was in an uproar.

Randall turned sideways and looked into Soshyan's eyes, his eyes twinkling.

In a sense, this meeting was also the first public legion-level meeting many years after the collapse of the Eleventh Legion.

After feeling the meaning that the other party wanted to convey, Soshiyang took a deep breath and told everyone everything—

Ten hours after the meeting ended, the combined fleet composed of the Astral Knights and the White Templar set off and headed straight for Armageddon.
