Chapter 2647 Ekvoria
Standard Terra Calendar 975.M41, Tempest Sector, Dark Frontier Area, Ekvoria Galaxy
"How is the situation now?"< br>
In the orbit of the forging world Ekvolia, an unprecedentedly powerful fleet visited here, so much so that the foundry director here, Prezemyslo, was not mentally prepared, especially knowing that it was the same person who came. He was even more shocked when he met Soshyan Alexey, the leader of the famous Astral Knights Chapter.
And more than that, why did this imperial hero get involved with a "heretical" forging world like Ulan Huda?
Why does he lead the White Templars Chapter instead of the Astral Knights? There has never been an example of a Chapter Master leading another Chapter in the Empire!
The most important thing is, what is he doing here? ?
This series of questions may or may not have been answered after he had a secret conversation with the sages sent by Bangura, but he did not express doubts again.
Soshiyan doesn't care what deal Bangura made with the other party, or coercion and inducement. Since he is here, he must do what he wants to do. He has to take care of the war here, this forging world. It will also become his sphere of influence. It's that simple - how much power can you do? This is a reality he finally accepted after so many years of ups and downs.
“The situation is basically under control now.”
The foundry director with eight arms stood next to the huge prototype display. Although his highly mechanized figure was quite tall, he was still smaller than Soshyan.
Under the rapid operation of his robotic arm, many color blocks appeared in the planet projection, and a large amount of information was marked, including enemy-occupied areas, firefighting areas, control areas, and the locations of various skitarii. Since it is a small forge world, they do not have Titans to deploy, but they do have three legions of Cybertronic battle droids, which are also the main force in suppressing the Genestealer sect.
". Coke Oven City has completely fallen, which is where these aliens now mainly gather. One-third of Cui Fanke City on the east side of Coke Oven City has been invaded, and the Steel Teeth Legion is fighting They fight against each other. This city is the location of the Forge World's most important fortification industry and is very important. Currently, the radiation wasteland from Scorch Oven City to Travank City has been blocked by an interception force composed of rangers and dune crawlers, and there are still people in the sky. Ornithopters patrol day and night. The possibility of the aliens in Coke Oven City to support their troops in Trevank City from the ground has disappeared. The only thing to worry about now is the underground passage. To the north of Coke Oven City is the Slag Mountains, which are also the commanding heights overlooking the entire city. , the Skitarii have been trying to control it, but the aliens are very cunning, digging a large number of caves and passages, and using soil work and guerrilla warfare to confront us, resulting in very slow progress in the war. To the west of Scorch Oven City is the No. 3 Holy Furnace Mining Area. Currently, there are About half of the area is controlled by aliens. They have desecrated many excavation machines as their war machines. The Black Flash Legion is currently fighting with them. There is currently no sign of enemy activity in the Acid Lake Swamp area south of Scorch Oven City, which is very unsuitable. Life activities can be judged as a natural obstacle."
Przemyslow finished a general battlefield situation in a very fluent tone, and then pulled out a series of forms and data.
“The current production efficiency of the planet has dropped by 43%. If the war continues for another three months, it will expand to 51%, and the production plan for the next seventy years will also be affected. Mars may Accountability”
Soshyan did not respond to him immediately, but looked at the patches of color on the planet and a series of images that appeared next to them, all of which were scenes of the Skitarii fighting the Genestealers.
Nothing too special.
After a while, a smile suddenly appeared on his face and he said:
"Director Prezemislow, do you know anything about the gene stealers?" .Some priests in the field of alien biology have done research, but it may not be too in-depth.”
Soshyan gently knocked on the console with his hand. After a moment, the hatch opened, and two white Templar Terminators walked in pushing a huge shelf, followed by a man wearing a red robe, with a pale and thin face, and one eye. The Mechanic Priest has been replaced with the Mechanical Doctrine Eye.
The casting director turned around and found that it was a pure-blood gene stealer that had been made into a specimen.
Soshyan walked slowly to the specimen, then patted the carapace on the gene stealer with his hand, and said to the technical priest on the side:
"Father Falla, give Prey Director Zemislow, let me introduce him.”
This technical priest is Faya who was brought back to the battle group by Soshyan when he found Sevita. He later studied with the biological priest Ford. He went to Zhao Akada to study again, focusing on alien biology, especially Tyranids and gene stealers. All the instructors who taught him praised him for his talent. He only ended his studies and returned to the war in recent years. At this time, he had transformed from a young apprentice into a knowledgeable technical priest with a passion for knowledge.
Because he would be participating in the battle against the gene stealers this time, Soshyan simply summoned him from Naisen IV. After all, it was not good to rely too much on the scholars of Ulan Huda.
In a huge group with increasingly complex interests and personnel, balance is very important.
Faya nodded, and unfolded three auxiliary arms with obvious biological texture similar to insect limbs behind her back, and then pointed at the various parts of the gene stealer and began to explain
"Prezemi Director Slo, the chitin carapace of gene stealers may not be very strong, but they are not afraid of cold or heat, and are very resistant to high pressure and corrosion. Normal acidic substances are just like ordinary people taking a bath with clean water to them. , In addition, their sensing organs are also very unique."
Soon, the communication between the two mechanical priests changed from language to pure data. Soshyan was not in a hurry until Faya finished speaking, He then smiled and said:
"So your assumptions about the Sour Lake Swamp area are too optimistic. I can even conclude that they have already established a stronghold there, but they are just dormant. When you use all your general forces in the other three directions, it will be very difficult. They may suddenly come out in force and head straight to your city. When the time comes, you will call the sky and the earth incompetent. "
"This-this-yes. ”
Przemyslo finally admitted this, because his logic operator quickly came to a conclusion after adding a series of conditions and data mentioned by Falla - the other party said is a high probability event.
Soshiyang then walked back to the camera. In fact, he had expected this situation. Although the mechanical sages were good at calculation and analysis, they were often short of strategy and planning. This It seems to be a somewhat contradictory statement, but it is very true for the followers of the Mechanicus. Perhaps they are easily confused by the straightforward data and ignore the many variables outside the data.
This is also the reason why the Skitarii are obviously very powerful, but often find it difficult to play a decisive role.
