Chapter 451 Surprise attack on New Badab!


Chapter 451: Surprise attack on New Badab!

Not long after the Death Whisper returned, the Tyrant's Claw broke away from the subspace and passed the New Badab outer marking ring and outpost.

It sent complete and correct berthing instructions to the Sentinel battleship and Hell's Eye. Hell's Eye then released the fire lock and signaled that the cruiser could pass.

During this period, several outposts also raised security questions, but only received the most rude response - no one dared to offend the third company commander, who is famous for his cruelty. Once he feels that his dignity has been insulted, then He can do anything.

This is the consensus of all red pirates, so these questions are just routine.

At this moment, the alarm sounded inside the Star Castle.

A red warning light on a polished brass console began to flash.

The officer on duty in the control hall was confused, but responded quickly because this was a high-level alarm.

He pressed an ivory-embedded button to get specific information, and a line of gleaming green text flashed across the glass screen.

[Abnormal disturbance in subspace, unidentified target appears]

At this time, the scanning array officer sent the results.

The officer in charge of the shift has served on the Hell Eye for thirty years and is well trained and disciplined.

At this moment he understood that any answers, corrections and explanations were secondary questions, that they were not urgent, and that even informing the Astartes about this was not a priority.

He knew the procedure very well and responded according to the training he had received.

The officer activated the communication system and deck protection measures, his hands skillfully and dexterously flying on the buttons, putting the Starfort into combat readiness, and began to systematically close the hatches at the front and rear of the company deck and blockade all Passages and elevators between decks.

Within ten seconds of the alarm sounding, the officer on duty had already begun to order the siege and blockade of the deck, and deployed troops at all entrances and exits.

His response was textbook.

Thirty-five seconds later, the Star Castle has completed its alert

Kelkus also heard that the combat readiness state was activated. He immediately left his personal weapon room and summoned his company The soldier went to the officer on duty to check the situation.

After seeing the data, he frowned.

"What's going on? Isn't this Nasir Wotek's ship? Why is there no answer?"

His words were drowned out by another siren.

One after another, one after another, the sounds of alarm bells, alarm bells and sirens intertwined into a din.

Proximity Alert——

Collision Warning——

Off-course prompt——

Detector array——

Passive scanning——

Something is rushing towards them, something is diving into the orbit of the planet In this densely packed but well-organized pile of battleships, something swept across the upper track without permission or authorization.

The officer on duty forgot the matter at hand for a moment.

He looked at the main screen, as did Kelkus, and so did the staff at the control center.

The Tyrant's Claw begins to accelerate.

It activated the main engine of physical space, launched the main continuous propulsion in a place where it should only rely on steering jets to keep gliding, and then activated the void shield to make itself even more unstoppable. Use yourself as a bullet to shoot at New Badab.

The screams of the crew can still be heard, but no one is listening.

Main continuous propulsion is an engine state used for strong acceleration. It is the maximum output power that allows the warship to reach the speed limit of physical space and jump to subspace.

This kind of acceleration method will only be used when the starship leaves the planet and heads for a node about half the distance away from the galaxy radius.

But there is absolutely no such long approach distance here.

The Tyrant's Claw is actually already within the orbit of New Badab, and it is impossible for it to reach its ultimate power or speed.

Even so, when it approached the edge of the atmosphere, it was still advancing at about 40% of the limit speed of physical space.

Its speed is so fast that no physical means can stop it.

Only scanning systems and sensors could detect it. This visitor, as fast and violent as a shock wave, made those instruments roar.

Yet the roar of the instruments was as meaningless as the screams of the crew.

At this time, Kelkus had already reacted, and he immediately shouted:

"Sink it! Activate the weapon array immediately! Notify all warships to evacuate the orbit!!!"< br>
In addition to the interior of the Star Fortress, there are at least four cruisers and hundreds of small battleships staying in orbit.

But at this moment, a burst of data impact killed the Mechanicus priest who was performing the central operation. "Emergency!"

The deaths of the forty-six data technicians in the Meditation Well were as fast as a storm. Key parts of their brain structures were burst or scorched in the turbulent data flow. Synapses are burned like faulty wiring. Internal bleeding began in the frontal lobe.

Not just them, the men and women who were connected to the system in the bulletproof glass cabin twitched, and the massive data impacted their brains like a heavy hammer.

They remain standing even in death.

"What the hell happened!"

Kelkus helped him down the spiral staircase of the shaft lined with meditators, pushed aside the unconscious servitor, and found the only technical priest who was still alive.

Although he was about to die, his body was covered in blood, and the interface at the back of his head was obviously burnt.

“Waste code.”

He made his final report in a hoarse binary voice.

"Large-scale data impact, overload trauma, system chaos, and architecture collapse."

"Waste code!? How is it possible! How did they enter-"

Suddenly, Kyle Kus The figure wearing the Terminator flashed through his mind. The figure seemed to have just left the center not long ago.

"Damn! These Eighth Legion wild dogs!"

Just when the command center of the Star Castle was paralyzed by a large number of waste codes, the Tyrant's Claw had penetrated the new city like a missile. Badab's orbit plunged into the rows of cargo ships and warships parked in the high-rise orbit.

It's like a bolter round into the heretic's heart.

Under the blessing of high speed, it uses the bow void shield to sweep aside small targets or completely annihilate them. Small ships such as cargo ships, barges, ferry boats and maintenance ships instantly disintegrate and explode with fiery fire. Blue sparks flashed on the surface of the void shield.

The chaos created by the Tyrant's Claw swept like huge waves in orbit, sending other ships tumbling and crashing into each other, pushing them against the hulls of larger ships.

It then arrived at the dock in New Badab.

Huron not only uses plunder to increase the number of his warships, but also transforms them. This dock is the main repair and transformation point of the Red Pirates.

This behemoth carries countless docks, supports, suspended workshops, residences, warehouses and berthing platforms, and is approximately three hundred kilometers in diameter.

The wreckage the Tyrant dragged along hit it, bursting with light.

The void shield moving at close to the speed of light collides with the physical matter and annihilates each other.

The cruiser first vaporized the side clearing dock, tearing apart the superstructure of the huge berthing bracket and a certain destroyer living there.

The battleship was cut into two pieces, its engine suddenly exploded, and thousands of lives disappeared into a rapidly expanding mass of heat and light.

The two workshop modules adjacent to the cleaning dock were incinerated by the explosion, killing tens of thousands of workers and engineers in a blink of an eye, and tearing apart the superstructure of the brake warehouse, causing it to tip to both sides and berth. The frigate inside therefore hit a tugboat.

The hulls of both battleships immediately suffered catastrophic damage.

But the Tyrant's Claw was still moving, and its devastating trajectory triggered a series of explosions inside the dock.

Residences and warehouses were shattered, docks collapsed one by one, and cranes bent and broke.

The battleships began to evacuate desperately, and many collisions occurred during the evacuation.

The two pirate warships crushed and tore each other during the collision. The hulls were torn apart, and the gas inside the ship spurted out from the damaged parts of the hull. Those spray-like airflows were filled with tumbling corpses as tiny as particles.

The Tyrant's Claw is still moving, but its void shield has failed, and now it is just a solid metal missile.

It annihilated two more slipways and the ships parked within them, and crashed through the data engine core located in the center of the dock structure.

All data engines were destroyed instantly, automatic systems suddenly failed, and 30,000 people died.

The impact has basically obliterated the Tyrant's Claw's hull that was not protected by the void shield. Its structure began to collapse, but it still maintained a very high physical space speed, transmitting billions of tons of energy. strength.

Finally, the Tyrant's Claw collided with the Hell Eye's void shield fiercely. At the moment of disintegration, large pieces of debris penetrated the void shield and splashed on the surface of the star fort, burning like meteors and scattered in all directions.

This whole disaster happened in ten seconds.

It made no sound, just a flash of light in the silence of space.

Whether they are observers on nearby ships or on the ground of the planet, they can only see a dazzling light, like the explosion of a supernova, followed by a layer of spreading, turbulent eruption, The flames that consume the sky.

Just when the Red Pirates were knocked into confusion, the disturbance in the subspace reached its extreme.

The Unbound Soul, with the shining Eagle emblem embedded in the bow of the ship, cut through the deep void rift like a spear and broke into the star domain of New Badab.

The wrath of the Golden Throne has once again descended on the traitors!
