During the melee, Kessler saw with his own eyes that their company commander was split open like so many pieces of meat in a slaughterhouse. He saw the tallest immortal in the regiment being smashed into pieces by a wild beast with its claws. He saw The "Company" champion, who was holding an "ancestral power sword" and claiming to cut off the opponent's commander's head, was grabbed by a snake-like thing, but he did not fall down because he was being cut open in the abdomen by the bloodthirsty beast.
In the middle of it, Kesal was still standing, but his stomach was churning and he was shooting mechanically.
This shouldn't be like this, what can he do? Can anyone do something?
At this moment, he suddenly felt that the beast that killed his brother Metz with a green blade was turning its head to stare at him.
But suddenly a burst of intense energy hit its head, causing the huge machine to tilt to one side, and then a huge thing rushed over and slammed it to one side.
It was a domita-type intelligent control robot with the logo of the Ulan Huda Forge World. It raised the gravity hammer with its arms high and hit the Scorpion Destroyer's body hard one after another, shattering its shell and leaving Weird energy and silver liquid splashed everywhere.
But within a few seconds, a snake-like Destroyer rushed over, hugged the combat robot's body with its stinging claws, knocked it down, tore open a huge hole and pulled out the cables inside, and Penetrates its head quickly.
Then another spear pierced the mechanical viper's head from behind.
For a moment, it froze, as if unable to comprehend the reality that it had been pierced.
Then, with a bloodcurdling howl, it raised its head only to push itself further against the shaft.
With the energy burst from the Purgatory Spear, the Destroyer's head was blown into pieces.
"Fighters of the Astral Knights! Lord Soshyan said! Courage does not belong only to the Space Marines!"
Kesal looked at his captain standing on the limp body of the Destroyer On the top, he pushed the broken mask onto his helmet and raised his spear and regimental flag high. The blood flowing from his forehead dyed half of his face red, but it did not reduce his fighting spirit.
“Let these aliens have a taste of human steel and fury! Immortal battle flags, hunting banners!”
At this moment, all the surrounding Pashtiban warriors were aroused with great excitement. In order to fight, Kesar also threw away his shield and picked up his brother's spear. He was only angry now.
"Astral Knight, defeat all armies!" Roaring, he and his comrades began to charge along the "metal path" crushed by the tank. Another Scorpion Destroyer rushed over, but everyone was already familiar with this monster. As we all know, they dispersed quickly, and then the fighter soldiers equipped with gravity hammers rushed over to collide with each other for the first time. When the phase blade cut through the shell of the fighter soldiers, the surrounding fighters, including Kessar, all Roaring, it swarmed forward and pierced its shell with the activated Infernal Spear.
Then the crazy expeller roared and fell to his knees like a impaled and stuck wild boar.
“Break it into pieces!”
The energy inspired by a dozen Infernal Spears directly tore the monster from the inside.
At this moment, the air-cutting wail emitted by the alien's sickle-shaped fighter plane echoed above Kessler and his comrades. Fortunately, the helmet's hearing protection device protected his eardrums from being shattered in time. When he When he raised his head, he only saw the shadow of an alien fighter jet in the distant direction, followed closely by ten Lightning fighter jets.
In the higher sky, the outline of the planet's orbital facilities was fragmented in the painful green flash, and the criss-crossing smoke trails left by the falling orbital debris became a permanent stain in the dirty sky.
Half a minute later, another sickle-shaped fighter plane passed over the battlefield. The wailing and screaming sound it made shocked Kesal, but this time it had obvious holes in it. , attacks on it are not just from the sky.
On the ground, the auxiliary army from the Astral Knights deployed more than 20,000 Hydra anti-aircraft guns and set up a dense field air defense zone. The extremely high firepower density intercepts the super-speed Necron fighter jets (see Chapter 2421 for the specific number of equipment). At the same time, the human fighter fleet also forms a linkage with the ground air defense. It does not pursue directly shooting down the opponent, but drives it away like a pack of wolves. The opponent enters the air defense net.
Faced with such a dragnet, the Ye Scythe fighter formation, which had suffered heavy losses, finally lost its arrogance. The remaining parts could only flee for their lives, without even caring about supporting the ground.
The battle also entered a fever pitch at this time. The skitarii and heavy fighter servitors were like a raging red wave sweeping through the Necron infantry phalanx, while the auxiliary forces of the Astral Knights were like ferocious sea beasts in the wave, constantly gnawing away. The target, the Gaussian energy of the Necron is also like an invisible giant broom, "sweeping away" the red at the forefront over and over again. However, from a macro perspective, it is obvious that the "red" is slowly eating away at the "green" ——After all, the Forge World has prepared a total of 60 million skitarii and various types of fighter servants for this battle, and there are still 60 million skitarii in the rear that can be put into battle at any time. The entire Scorch Oven City has actually been besieged. . (Don’t think that there are too many troops. The cities of the Mechanicus are basically the same concept as the nests, and the area is quite ridiculous)
Faced with this situation, the crowned generals of the Necrons realized for the first time What does it mean to be sweaty and exhausted? Being blocked at the door of their home makes them feel humiliated but there is nothing they can do about it. They exhaust all their computing power and the final result they get is despairing - the enemy's numerical advantage is simply impossible with their existing strength. After smoothing it out, there are actually only a hundred legions in the entire tomb, which is less than one million usable warriors. Although the proportion of immortals among them is relatively high, it does not exceed 200,000. But in fact, they have been sleeping for 60 million years. There is a huge loss. The entire tomb can actually awaken less than 800,000 soldiers, and this has to face nearly 100 million enemies. Even if each one can be reborn ten times, it is not enough. This is why a single tomb world is easily destroyed. Before the Great Sleep, in order to prevent an accident from destroying the dynasty, the emperors usually adopted a decentralized deployment method to spread their power to more than a dozen or even dozens of worlds. The advantage was that one accident would not severely damage the dynasty, but the disadvantage was that a single tomb was The world's defense capabilities are actually very weak.
Crown World is naturally no exception. Although more troops will be deployed, it is only a little more.
Now the only hope of the crowned generals is that the King of France quickly destroys the enemies in orbit, and then uses the powerful power of the battleships to sweep away the enemies on the ground. All they can do is to hold on as long as possible, and holding on is crucial to the dynasty. The central tomb, after all, contains many treasures of the dynasty and the rebirth agreements of most nobles.
Of course, they didn't know that their King was already in dire straits at this time.
And while space and the ground are fighting fiercely, another secret war in the shadows has quietly begun...
