Chapter 1908 The Second Battle of Angstrom (4)

The leader of the Hoffe Squadron, Hoffe No. 2, is leading three Cobra-class destroyers to perform surveillance missions conveyed by the flagship. Captain Baradoo is Standing on the bridge, I watched the red pirate fleet disappear into the fog.

Yes, not long ago, an incredible black fog suddenly filled up around the planet Angstrom 6. Considering that this is space, those rolling clouds and fog like life can indeed be called "incredible" ".

Baradu has reported this situation to his superiors, but there has been no response yet, so they can only continue to monitor the mist.

But he always felt that this was the work of heretics. Weird things started happening after they entered the broken asteroid belt around Angstrom. Speaking of which, when did those strange things appear around Angstrom? The asteroid belt?

The captain stared at the looming outline of the asteroid fragments in the black fog, as well as the wreckage that continued to float out of the fog, doubts constantly rising in his mind.

It looks like what happened to the red pirate ships just now. The metal wreckage kept moving as if it was pushed to the shore by the waves. It looked like it had been eaten by vultures crazily. The broken hulls kept rolling and rolling. More fragments were scattered, and the scars left by claws and flames could be vaguely seen on the wreckage.

But they didn't hear or see any movement, and the instruments didn't show that there had just been a battle. How could these ships be destroyed?

Balladu, who had some gray hair, shook his head and moved his position on crutches. One of his legs has been replaced by a steel prosthesis. The surrounding muscles are always itchy and he has been wearing it for decades. The breastplate was covered with traces of battle, and the breathing mask made a wheezing sound from time to time - it was a gift left to him by a green-skinned pirate during a fight against the Rebellion Gang many years ago.

However, this is a war in the void, not a small fight somewhere, and scars are just a small price for victory.

"Captain."

Suddenly, his first mate called him, but the captain had already heard the deep sound of the veteran's boots hitting the deck.

He turned around and nodded briefly, the cold blue lens hanging in his left eye flickering.

“It’s filled with the stench of the warp.”

The first mate said as he studied the wreckage in the distance.

"My first impression is that these actions have obvious supernatural power, and we need to ask our superiors for instructions."

"I have done it a long time ago, but now the fleet is engaged in battle, I am afraid we have to wait. ”

In the distance, two other destroyers covered the flanks of the Hoffy 2.

"But I have some doubts about what attacked them. Look at that position. The cut is across the bow of the ship. It seems that some huge weapon caused this wound. Laser can't do this."

Of course, there is another explanation. The captain did not mention that possibility to avoid controversy. The naval education he received mainly focused on scientific tangible things, but any old captain knows that in subspace There are also ancient enemies - demons.

Suddenly, the captain blinked, as if he saw something moving in the black fog. It was big and fast, like a shadow hiding in the shadows.

However, just as he was about to focus on it, it disappeared.

Maybe it’s really nothing, it’s just the uneasiness in my heart that’s causing the problem.

"Order the formation to retreat first and contact the Shield Squadron. I think something is wrong."

Just when Baladur was about to give the order to retreat, he suddenly felt a warmth in his right hand and immediately relaxed. I opened my hand that was holding the railing and found that the temperature suddenly became very high.

The same thing happened to the rest of the crew, who recoiled in surprise, the air thick and hot, and every breath was tinged with heat.

At this time, the originally slow fog suddenly surged in like a tidal wave, instantly spreading from the low orbit of Angstrom 6 to the high orbit, surrounding the Hoffy team.

The next second, a primitive roar passed through the communicator, answering all the doubts that had not been spoken in time. In the mist, a huge whip struck a destroyer, its vicious barbs easily tore through the metal shell, and a turret disappeared in a flash of lightning.

Then the whip was drawn out, part of the hull fell downwards with a crackling sound, and the remaining part of the monster was exposed.

It was huge, its well-developed muscles were covered with brass marks, and the membrane of its wings was as black as armor. It held a whip in one hand and an ax with jagged and shining runes in the other - a huge bloodthirsty demon left the subspace and entered into the physical universe.

Balladu immediately understood that it was the weapon that split open the red pirate ship he just saw.

Some corrosive heat haze rippled around it, and a surge of rage surged into his temples every time he tried to focus on the snarling demon.

"All weapons, attack this damn ghost thing with all your strength!"

After a brief moment of surprise, Balladur immediately ordered an attack. Although the enemy is not common, it at least provides a Aim at the target.

The agile destroyer maneuvered, its engines burning crazily, followed by the roar of its light spears. The demon roared angrily.

Even the bloodthirsty demon did not dare to face the battleship's main gun. Instead, it hid very smartly.

Just as the bloodthirsty maniac was hiding, black clouds rolled in, revealing the truth.

“Oh God Emperor!”

What he saw in front of him frightened the captain. Those asteroid fragments had formed a blasphemous eight-pointed star pattern, and each fragment seemed to be engraved with huge inscriptions. The runes of the God of Darkness emit evil red light, moving slowly in the void, tearing apart the curtain of reality, and summoning more demons.

It was some winged demons swarming in from the red asteroid fragments. Although they were the weakest chaos demons, they had enough numbers to beat the destroyer's armor angrily, trying to tear it apart with absolute speed and ferocity. Crush these steel behemoths.

They seem to be targeting Imperial ships, but in fact all this stems from a purposeless desire for destruction.

"All combatants are in place in each cabin, all weapons are activated, and the other two ships are notified that we need to alternate cover to leave this fog."

Balladu calm down After issuing the command, the anti-rebound gangs in the ship gathered together, while the turrets and point defense fog outside the ship fired dense bullets, and the demons were dispersed amidst exaggerated wails and discordant trills.

But the roar from the mist attracted his attention. The big guy came back. It turned out that it attacked Hoffy No. 4, and metal fragments rolled from its axe.

"Full right rudder! Full right rudder!"

The destroyer turned sharply to the right with all its speed and grace, and then the gunnery commander tilted the firepower towards the big demon through concentrated instructions, and a burst of non-stop fire The rain hit the monster.

The bloodthirsty maniac hid behind a fragment. When the fragment was shattered, it had appeared on the other side of the destroyer, with violent impulses flashing in its eyes.

Soon, the voice of the gunner commander came.

"We can't target it, Captain! Any instruments aimed at it are damaged, and everyone is crazy! Even the servitors!"
