Warhammer: Hail to the Void Lords!

Chapter 481 06.0480: ‘Fuck! It’s the white-haired, red-eyed machine soul girl! ’

“Charge! Warriors of the Tau Empire! We will never sit and wait for death today. The rescue fleet has arrived, with several light cruisers and cruisers, and more than a dozen destroyers and frigates brought along.

They will be here soon! Ether ordered us to chase after the final torpedo track, chase after these hostile villains in the shadows, drive them out of the invisible fog, and the reinforcements will be able to wipe them out one by one!

Show your courage, for the future of our race! For the Greater Good! Charge!” The captain of this merchant-class cargo ship shouted.

After being hunted down for dozens of hours in an extremely depressing atmosphere, the emotions of the crew of the Tau Empire merchant ship had been suppressed for a long time. This speech directly ignited their excited hearts.

They no longer cared about the danger. Even if it was just to vent their anger, they had to ram the attacker who kept hiding in the shadows and firing deadly torpedoes, exposing her whereabouts.

"High-energy turn, turn around!"

When the captain's order was issued to the engine room, the Epic's port booster nozzle sprayed dazzling flames. Even if the hull was shrouded in the shadow field, it could be seen from the outside.

As the high-energy turn continued to increase power, a red warning message popped up on the display console of the shadow field generator. The excessive maneuvering caused the force field to become increasingly unstable until it automatically exited.

The Epic briefly threw away the cloak of the shadow and performed a rapid maneuver. Before the enemy not far away successfully crashed into itself, it was like being pinched by the hand of God. After the entire battleship turned 180 degrees, it immediately began to increase power in the opposite direction.

"Captain, the enemy ship is 30 kilometers away from our ship!"

"Quick! Push the afterburner to the maximum."

"Afterburner charging, the afterburner value is being increased." The hoarse voice of the power department officer was still steady, and his big hands with bulging veins steadily pushed the output to the maximum, watching the value on the screen jump from 30% to 100% step by step.

"The collision is expected to be 1 minute and 11 seconds!"

The red warning flashed in front of Horatio's eyes.

As long as the Epic can increase its speed to exceed the enemy ship during the 1 minute and 11 seconds of afterburner, it can survive the upcoming collision.

Horatio sat on the command throne, and the Epic's machine soul could also sense the approach of danger.

This little guy, who was just born, kept jumping up and down in his perception, looking impatient and uneasy.

The moment before, she was still immersed in the pleasure and joy of killing, and Horatio firmly suppressed her desire to cross the line.

The next second, the reversed situation scared this restless little guy.

"Captain! The afterburner increased too quickly, triggering the engine's heat dissipation alarm! But our speed has only reached 10 void knots!"

It seems that forcibly reversing the state of the machine soul from the surging fighting spirit to panic may affect the overall performance of the ship.

Horatio raised his iron hand and opened the knuckle at the top of his middle finger. The cross section of the metal broken finger stretched out a dendrite that was as winding as a snake.

The top of the dendrite went deep into the connection port of the command throne, connecting with the metal contacts and signal ports one by one.

In an instant, the machine soul in front of Horatio suddenly trembled and flickered, shaking non-stop.

At that moment, he seemed to walk out of his body, transformed into another incarnation, entered this white mist, and the two wills merged into one.

Although the two are compatible and repelling, he has always been in the dominant position in this entanglement, and finally successfully suppressed the machine soul.

At first, the machine soul was very repulsive, but soon, a red machine soul appeared again in the iron hand.

The red machine soul exuded an ancient and murderous aura, and slammed into the white machine soul without any hesitation, pressing her under Horatio's incarnation.

"Who are you? Why are you here..." In the flashing fusion and repulsion, the machine soul's stream of consciousness was reflected in his mind in a non-verbal way.

"Follow my orders, Epic, I am the captain." He instilled his will in his brain and communicated with the machine soul with his heart.

"Captain... Captain..." The machine soul repeated the word like an echo.

Soon, through the neural plug, it absorbed enough information.

Then, three clearer incarnations slowly appeared in the void of the consciousness domain.

One was Horatio, who was naked but had a blurred figure.

Standing opposite him was a girl with white hair and red eyes.

Her appearance was impeccable.

Although she was beautiful, she had a natural temperament that made others alienated and fearful, and her body was surging with offensive red binary inscriptions.

The two looked at each other, and the girl's hollow eyes revealed confusion and anxiety, but her brows were tightly furrowed, and the lines of her sword eyebrows were still sharp, showing that most of her mind was still immersed in the high-pitched but dull fighting spirit.

"This ship is carrying out its mission, the mission given at the beginning of its birth.

The captain prevented the mission from being carried out, it was painful." The white-haired girl's eyes were out of focus, and she uttered a few words without any emotion.

As soon as these words came out, Horatio found that there was a girl with red hair and red skirt behind him. She had a fierce face and a cold face that was intimidating without anger. Hearing this, she walked straight towards the white-haired girl in front of her, and it seemed that she was going to use force to make the other party submit again.

"The Whip of the Immaculate Angel, wait." At the moment when he was about to take action, Horatio pulled her back.

The red-haired girl's fierce black-gold vertical pupils glared at Horatio during the pulling action, but her body obediently stopped the action.

There is a threshold between the machine souls that have been in war for thousands of years and the machine souls that have just been born from newly built machines. The old machine souls generally have more complete personalities, which is why in this world and universe, the older the machine, the better it is to use.

Horatio walked up to the white-haired girl.

He walked very close, and then...

Boom, he flicked her pale forehead with silvery skin.

A glimmer of light suddenly focused in those lifeless eyes.

"It hurts...".

"..."

?

[Can the machine soul feel pain when the hull is not damaged? ]

Not sure, try again.

He flicked her head again.

"It hurts, what are you doing?" The dullness in those eyes gradually dissipated, and was replaced by deep resentment, looking at the man who claimed to be the captain in front of him.

"I am your captain, Epic." Horatio said in a stern but not stiff tone.

"Captain..." She covered her head and lowered her head.

"I am your partner in battle. I am your captain and commander. We will work together to achieve victory, but you must obey my orders."

The Epic's machine soul hesitated for a while, then frowned and looked at the bright red machine soul following the man. They looked at each other. The machine soul with red hair and red skirt, who was very charming but full of danger in every move, snorted coldly, crossed his arms and turned his face to the side.

The girl with white hair and red eyes lowered her head, then raised her head to look at the man in front of her.

"I know... Captain."

"Now, calm down, we should retreat, adjust the engine power, and we will increase the power again."

The machine soul closed his eyes and readjusted his state.

In the engine compartment, the heat dissipation components gradually changed from the disturbing rapid heating roar to a gentle layer of hum.

"Captain! The engine speed has returned to normal!" The power department officer reported in surprise.

But when Horatio heard the report from outside, it was like a barrier, like a call from afar, but it was still clear enough to let him know what was happening outside.

"Hold steady, keep moving forward, increase the speed to full speed." Horatio issued instructions to his vocal cords with a little twist, and then took the hand of the white-haired, red-eyed girl and guided her to fly forward.

That's right, Horatio was standing on the ground, while she was flying in the air, floating without any restrictions.

This was her world, the machine soul space of the Epic.

Under his patient guidance, the new machine soul slowly adjusted the battleship according to his instructions, which was the only way to subtly establish and deepen the tacit understanding between the two sides.
