Chapter 717 The Final Stage
【Time: -8.24.15】
Ultramar's manufacturing capabilities are indeed powerful.
Duanmu Huai stood on the high platform and looked at the psionic warriors who had changed their clothes below - they were wearing silver armor, with the logo of the Tribunal engraved on their shoulders. Judging from their appearance, they looked like ordinary Astartes. There is not much difference.
"It is indeed Ultramar, its production capacity is truly the best in the world."
"As long as we have a blueprint, it will not be difficult for us."
Guilliman, who was standing next to Duanmuhuai, was somewhat proud, but he was still a little confused.
"But I have a question, why does it have to be the Gray Knight? Can't it be the Blue Knight?"
"I don't mind if you want to. Gray Knight is just a branch code of the Inquisition. If you like, paint it blue."
Duanmuhuai shrugged his shoulders. The Gray Knights in history were also the pioneers in restraining Chaos. However, there were different opinions on their ability to resist Chaos at that time. Some people said that the Gray Knights' gene seeds came from the transformation of the crazy doctor, the Emperor, while others said that it was Gray Knight's special training method.
But there is no need for such trouble here in Duanmuhuai. Once you wear the mark of the Tribunal, you will all be followers of the God of Destruction, and your souls will belong to the Tribunal. So of course they cannot be corrupted by Chaos - after all, this is essentially the same as two gods competing for believers in the world of Faerûn. For example, Shar wants to use lies to deceive and seduce Selun's followers into corruption. The latter has gods. If you protect yourself, then your back will naturally be stiff.
And if you are unbelieving and have no background, then there is only a dead end.
By the way, by the standards of Faerûn, the empire is basically all fucking unbelievers, so that’s the end of it. Not to mention the Wall of Unbelievers, this can directly build a Great Wall of Unbelievers for you.
By the way, again, the Inquisition has never worried about this problem. The reason is very simple--in addition to the God of Destruction, Duanmu Huai is also an old god.
No one understands spiritual pollution better than the Old Gods.
Just like in the world of Cthulhu, people who are mentally contaminated will only run all the way to the abyss of chaos. You will never see them wake up. This is impossible. The mental pollution caused by the Old Gods and Outer Gods to human beings is overwhelming, and because they act on the material world, those subspace methods are meaningless. In fact, when they accept the protection of the Tribunal and use the power of the Tribunal to destroy the evil creatures of Chaos, the spirits of these Gray Knights will also be imprinted with the spirit of the Tribunal by Duanmuhuai's old god's will, so it is absolutely impossible for them to fall.
Because no one can fall twice.
That’s right, double insurance.
In fact, Duanmu Huai originally wanted to promote the Gray Knights after his territory in Faerûn matured, but the plan did not change quickly. It will be interesting to see what these Astartes Gray Knights will become.
"To put it bluntly, a large part of them may be completely wiped out by this war."
Duanmuhuai did not hide this from Guilliman.
"The Gray Knights need strict training and review. Unfortunately, we don't have enough time now and we can't do this, so we can only wait for them to be eliminated naturally. War is the best filter. Although I don't want to say this, you have to do it well. Mental preparation.”
"Of course I am mentally prepared. All Astartes are the same, whether they are Gray Knights or not."
Guilliman looked solemnly at the army of Gray Knights lining up below. What he was most worried about now was the three Abyss-class battleships Duanmu Huai told him. If it was true as Duanmu Huai said, these three The standard of the Abyss-class battleship is comparable to that of the Phalanx, so this is definitely the most dangerous battle for Ultramar. In fact, during the period when Duanmu Huai was training the Gray Knights, Guilliman had been thinking about how to defeat the three Abyss-class battleships. In the end, the answer he got was to organize a group of Astartes to join the gang and kill them. Entering the interior of these battleships, destroying their reactors and causing them to self-destruct is a suicide attack.
After all, they really don't have a more powerful battleship. Even Ultramar cannot build a battleship as powerful as the Phalanx in such a short period of time.
"If you have no other solution, the Inquisition can give you a solution."
"Oh?"
Hearing this, Guilliman looked at Duanmuhuai curiously.
"What plan?"
"Our Tribunal once destroyed an alien mother planet and then dug up three large battleships on it. The alien battleships are similar to the Eldar Ark, but not that big. But compared to the imperial battleships, they are still big enough. If If you are willing to accept the support of alien technology, I can transfer them here.”
Duanmuhuai refers to the loot he collected when he was collecting the protoss' home planet of Aiur. At that time, Duanmuhuai not only dug up a large number of crystals on Aiur, but also took away three of the protoss' arks - Ya Spear of Dun, Pride of Otalis and Memories of Nirvana.
Duanmu Huai himself and the Inquisition had no interest in this kind of alien creation. He only wanted to bring it back to study the shield technology of the protoss, and then use it as a trophy - the Astartes often collected some aliens they defeated. It is actually normal for Duanmu Huai to use his weapons as souvenirs and collections.
Of course, Duanmu Huai's biggest subordinate is naturally his mothership fusion, the Forerunner's Mantle of the World, but Duanmu Huai would not be stupid enough to take risks by dragging his mothership into the universe of this timeline. So he simply pulled these three Star Spirit Arks over. After all, they were just trophies, and they took up space when placed there. He threw them directly at the three Abyss-class battleships and smashed them. Don't you believe that they can still kill you?
"So you mean to let three alien warships collide with the Abyss-class warships?" "Yes, although those three alien warships are a little smaller than the Abyss-class warships, they are enough to deal with these Abyss-class warships."
< br>
Duanmu Huai looked very calm. If the Abyss-class battleship was compared to a person, then the Ultramarines fleet was equivalent to a toothpick. It would definitely hurt when someone was poked with a toothpick, but it would also be difficult to kill someone. Although the Star Spirit Ark is not as big as a human being, it is still a short sword. As long as it is in the right position, it can stab you to death with one sword.
Duanmu Huai's plan is to use the three Star Spirit Arks to directly attack the Abyss-class warship with kamikaze, and then completely detonate its power core. Even a mountain formation of this scale will inevitably die, let alone an Abyss-class battleship.
It is true that the Abyss level firepower is powerful, but the shield of the protoss is not vegetarian.
Although they only have shields left.
"Is it really possible?"
It has to be said that Guilliman was really surprised when he heard Duanmuhuai's suggestion. He was not surprised by the alien warships, but he was surprised that Duanmu Huai was willing to use these three alien warships to fight the enemy. After all... Although it is an alien battleship, it is an alien battleship comparable to the Abyss. Even if Guilliman asks himself, he does not feel that he can make up his mind to take it out and consume it directly.
If the Adeptus Mechanicus saw it, they might not be able to bear it directly.
"The mission of the Tribunal is to protect mankind at all costs, so in my opinion this misfortune is not a big deal. Besides, they are all picked up anyway, so they are not used in vain."
Although Duanmu Huai said it easily, Guilliman was in awe of Duanmu Huai when he heard this. After all, based on his experience, the alien with such a large battleship must be an interstellar civilization, and the Inquisition can hit and destroy its mother all the way. Star, it is enough to show that they sacrificed a lot. And the trophies they had sacrificed so much to obtain were actually let go in order to protect humanity... I have to say that Guilliman really admires the Inquisition.
Well, in fact, Duanmu Huai was just there to rob, taking advantage of the protoss and insect swarms fighting each other to the death - there was no need to elaborate on this to Guilliman.
"Then it's up to you. Ultramar will never forget the friendship of the Inquisition."
Guilliman is not a fool. If you have good things, don’t use them in vain. Although his Ultramarines Legion is the most powerful in the world, Guilliman is also a soldier who loves his soldiers like a son. Of course, he will not allow his Astartes to sacrifice in vain. .
After all, he had no other choice.
【Timing: -0.25.31】
The subspace began to tremble, and a huge crack emerged from it, tearing the boundary between the subspace and the material world. Along with crazy prayers and screams, a large number of warships emerged from the crack. The domes opened one after another, explosion-proof shields stretched out from the muzzles, and giant cannons penetrated into the void, ready to destroy everything anytime and anywhere.
This is a blasphemous fleet, an evil fleet, a dark fleet. But no existence can compare with the darkest and most terrifying battleship behind them - a huge, trident-like incomparable existence tremblingly appeared from the subspace, it was a killing giant, on its ship It has a city composed of monasteries and churches. It is a cosmic fortress mounted on a huge trident. It is a demon that embodies the concept of hatred in its steel body and sails among the stars. Even if it is The empire's Glory Queen-class battleship is not worth mentioning in front of it.
In front of them was the starlight of Five Hundred Worlds, a peaceful, beautiful world that presented a civilized scene.
And the fleet of Ultramarines that was already waiting there.
There is also a strange fleet located on it.
"You know what? The first time I saw it, I thought it was the Word Bearers' warship."
Looking at the Inquisition fleet opposite, which was also decorated with a splendid church, Magnus twitched the corners of his eyes and looked at Lorgar beside him, whose expression seemed calm.
"They are just astray. No matter where they come from, their beliefs are fragile lies in front of the true God. They are no different from the truth of the Empire and no different from our fathers."
"You still love to go to extremes."
Magnus snorted and said nothing. Every time Lorgar and his Legion of Word Bearers captured a planet, in order to prove the greatness of the Emperor's True God he believed in, he would completely burn down other beliefs in that world. Facts have proved that Lorgar is no different now than before. He may have turned his back on the Emperor, but his obsession with faith remains the same.
In Magnus's view, apart from changing the gods they believed in, Lorgar was basically the same as before, or they were more arrogant.
"Their helpless resistance and wailing will be the beginning of this subspace music."
Luojia raised his hands in the air, as if he were a band conductor at a concert.
"And I will play this movement here."
Then he waved his hand down.
