Chapter 499 The Last Gift
“Even if we go up now, we may not be able to escape.”
On the screen, the ghost of destruction is slowly approaching, with raging fire covering its wings. With the ship's spine, as Huron's flagship, the "care" it received can be seen.
However, despite the brutal bite from artillery and lasers, it is still capable of fighting.
The propellers on the flanks of the Ghost of Destruction began to burn fiercely. It slowly rose and then turned to the right, with its sharp knife-like bow aimed at the Unbound Soul.
Its huge impact angle filled the entire screen, and the light spear turrets also activated.
Due to the previous attack, more than a dozen forts of the Ghost of Destruction have become unusable, but there are really countless forts that are still active.
Soon, the flames of the light spear and short-range particle beams spurted out from the muzzle, and the artillery fire of the Unbound Soul also roared past. It was almost only a hundred meters away from the Storm Bird, and the alarm also sounded. Then it sounded.
"I'm afraid our flagship was destroyed before we even had a chance to board,"
Kelkus's eyes have been scanning the void battle, as if they were alone. Already, all the Red Pirates' battleships were defeated and were rushing towards a safe jump point.
Then, the Unbound Soul suddenly turned its bow, and a fire spear stabbed straight out of its side.
“Strange?”
Kelkus frowned, wondering why the other party suddenly gave up the attack.
At this time, excited shouts suddenly came from the cockpit.
“Communication is restored!”
Kelkus's heart trembled, and he finally knew why the opponent started to retreat.
Communication interference has disappeared!
"Get me the Ghost of Destruction immediately! And send communications to all the battleships. The Lord is still alive and no one is allowed to retreat!"
The Unbound Soul is leaving, and the others The imperial warships also followed it one after another, and at the same time, the Eye of Hell also stopped attacking.
Several small frigates have entered the Star Castle's tow berth.
"They are leaving"
Kelkus had been staring at the scene at the stern of the ship so intently that he was really surprised when they suddenly arrived at the Ghost of Destruction. .
The huge hull of the battleship passed through the observation window on the starboard side. The Stormbird suddenly landed, the roaring engine turned around, and the landing claws hit the deck heavily.
Afterwards, all the hatches and ramps of the spacecraft were opened, and the masked cultists and Chaos Space Marines rushed to the deck. The pharmacist hurriedly put the dying Huron on the first aid stretcher.
Kelkus also followed this group of gloomy-looking warriors and walked off the Storm Bird.
Many gunboats later struggled to reach the embarkation deck.
Suddenly, the Destruction Ghost received a strong impact, and piercing sirens sounded everywhere.
Screaming orders came from each communication transmitter, almost distorted to an incomprehensible degree.
It turned out that a Thunderhawk rushed over, its tail was burning. It crashed hard on the deck, the torn landing claws and sparks flew everywhere, and a landing pillar also broke, leaving Its belly slid directly into the open interceptor net.
The damage control team hurriedly shouted and ran over, spraying foam fire extinguishing agent towards the fuselage from a long water pipe.
The landing gunboat screamed like a miserable ghost tortured in hell.
A large amount of exhaust gas was emitted on the deck, making the air almost unbreathable. Several huge fans set off a storm, but their efforts to purify the smoke had little effect. Instead, they stirred it into Dazzling haze.
Kelkus accompanied Huron's stretcher into the vast mist. The tyrant's eyes were closed tightly, and blood was still dripping from his nose and the corners of his closed mouth. The aura that originally enveloped him was slowly fading away. It was gloomy, and the group could only rush to the medical area in a hurry.
Kelkus didn't know if he should follow.
At this time, a hand roughly grabbed his hand and asked him to lower his head. "Communication has been restored.?"
It's Huron, he wakes up, but is breathless.
"Yes, Lord."
"Order. Fire with all your strength. Don't let them escape!"
The last two words spelled out the tyrant's whole body. strength.
Kelkus nodded bitterly.
"Yes."
Having said that, he knew that they probably wouldn't be able to do it.
Although communications have been restored, the communication facilities of almost all battleships have been damaged to varying degrees, and almost all the astropaths have died. In this case, commands can only be issued through a simple communication grid, but this requires Coordinating an entire fleet was completely impossible.
By the time he reorganized the fleet, the enemy had long disappeared.
But out of a sense of duty, Kelkus returned to the command position on the bridge.
Just when he was dispatching troops urgently, the subspace engine of the Hell Eye had already been started, and then other warships of the empire, including the towed frigate, also started their subspace engines.
Under the surprised gaze of the red pirates, the void was torn apart, and their fortress disappeared into orbit.
But that's not the worst.
As Kelkus prepared to take stock of his losses, an even more terrifying news came.
The Astral Knights left a gift before leaving -
They actually dropped an ancient virus bomb on New Badab! And it hit Huron's Tyrant Fortress, instantly killing all living things in the surrounding area. Now the Life-Eating Virus is sweeping the entire planet along with the strong winds.
How many living people are there on the surface of the planet now? There is almost nothing to look forward to.
After receiving the news, the company commander, who had experienced hundreds of battles, slumped directly on the command seat.
“——Malakin did a good job. He did not choose to retreat at the first time, because that would only make the Red Pirates spontaneously organize a pursuit. He chose to catch the Red Pirates who were confused due to communication failure. During the opening, he first caused very serious damage to the enemy, completely destroying the morale of the Red Pirates, and then moved the star fort. Although there were some twists and turns, the fleet returned to the starting point safely. Now the star fort is parked in Nai. On the orbit of Mori 4”
After listening to Valier's story, Soshyan had a smile on his face.
"Although I failed to kill Huron, this lesson is profound enough. He will never dare to look directly at us again."
As he said that, he jumped down from the bed.
At this time, he suddenly noticed that the two pharmacists briefly communicated with their eyes.
"What's wrong? You seem to have something that you can't talk about."
Valier scratched his temple, then took out a data pad and handed it to Soshyan.
"Just take a look."
Soshiyang took the data tablet and scanned it for a while. His original joy quickly became heavy, then angry, and finally he almost wanted to choose someone. And the gnawing rage.
"Sarpedon!!!!!!!!!!!!"
With a snap, the data pad was smashed against the wall and shattered.
"I must kill you————————————!!!!!!!!!!!!"
A frightening roar echoed in the medical cabin. , It’s been a long time
Please give me a monthly ticket! ! ! !
