The hive cities suffered unimaginable horrific destruction.
The majestic sculpture collapsed, and the remaining base was covered with claw marks.
The buildings on both sides of the street have been reduced to charred ruins by the bombardment of artillery fire.
The ruins were filled with corpses.
There are Zerg and humans mixed together.
The cruelty of war is evident from this.
Humanity has paid a heavy price for this.
Guilliman felt a little heavy in his heart, but he still put on a smile.
He is the faith of these people, and he must give people faith no matter when and where.
A gloomy-looking leader cannot inspire faith.
Surrounded by priests, crusaders, and guards, he walked along a cleared and organized road.
Show a faint smile to those fanatical people.
Give them comfort and let them know that all crises are over.
"Go and help them," Guilliman said to the two priests beside him, "Preach the glory of the Emperor and provide them with the necessary protection."
"Understood, sir."
The priests who were walking behind Guilliman nodded.
Then they broke away from the team and walked into the crowd, comforting their pain and conveying the Emperor's teachings.
Medical teams were also sent under Guilliman's orders to check on the survivors who had suffered so much.
Gradually begin treatment for those injured.
The Mechanicus' construction servitors and heavy machinery were also transported down from the fleet to begin reconstruction work.
Of course, the previous industrial-first style will be improved.
A balance will be reached between planetary environment and industrial development.
Guilliman made his way through the crowd, deep into the fortress of the hive city.
Walked into a hall with marble floors.
This place was once used as a tactical command center.
Calga gave orders here and directed the entire defense of Vitria.
Relying on the power in his hands, he resisted the crazy attack of the Zerg.
This is undoubtedly an unimaginable feat.
It will surely be praised and spread by the people of the empire in the future.
The destroyed Thinker array was still flowing with nutrient solution, the heads inside had been torn out by the Zerg, and the neural cables were scattered all over the ground.
The tactical projection machinery was also destroyed to pieces.
As Guilliman stepped into the tactical center.
The Mechanical Priest is dismantling the damaged Thinker array and preparing to replace it with new ones.
Several suspended servo skulls stretched out long mechanical arms to repair the projector, and sparks would burst out from time to time.
The cleaning machine slaves were carrying the corpses.
Human corpses will be properly disposed of, while those of the Zerg will be minced and decomposed into nutrients.
The conference table was also damaged, with huge cracks appearing on the surface.
Tyrannosaurus always ruins everything.
This has never changed.
A perfectly intact marble chair that had belonged to Guilliman.
It has been placed at the main seat of the conference table in the tactical center.
Guilliman walked over and sat in the main seat.
Other senior leaders of the expeditionary force followed in.
Report the entire situation of the expeditionary force to the Primarch.
The Tyranid siege is still ongoing.
The Tyranid creatures on the surface were basically wiped out.
Of course, there are still some fish that have slipped through the net and are hiding in various places on the planet, and the planetary defense force needs to search them slowly.
There may be gene stealers lurking in the bottom of the hive, which is also an issue that must be taken seriously.
The Tyranid biological fleet also suffered attacks from the Imperial fleet.
With the cooperation of the Punishment Colossus and the Imperial Fleet, the biological fleet that invaded the Vitria galaxy was completely destroyed.
Part of the expeditionary fleet has set sail to exterminate the Zerg deep in the void.
With the massive size of the Imperial Fleet, the Behemoth Bio-Fleet will face the countdown to its destruction and pay the price for its crimes.
After listening to the reports from all the troops, Guilliman looked at the Mechanical Priest and asked whether the relevant mechanical equipment had been repaired.
"Everything is ready, my lord," said the Mechanical Priest.
Guilliman nodded, "Then open it and show the full picture of the Empire. I need to brief them on the next plan."
“Understood, my lord,” the Mechanical Priest said.
With his claw-like fingers, the Mechanical Priest turned on the repaired holographic projector.
A huge holographic projection lit up in the hall, showing the entire picture of the empire.
The core solar star region and frontier areas such as the Far East are all displayed.
Even the dark realm of the Empire, which had no Emperor's guidance, appeared in the projection.
A large rift is also depicted, giving a visual representation of just how dire humanity’s current situation is.
Guilliman did not speak immediately, but silently looked down at the huge holographic projector.
It's like a creator overlooking the world he created.
The faint light from the projector shone on his resolute, charming face.
Many high-ranking members of the expeditionary force could see the worry in Guilliman's brow.
They were confused.
They defeated the Orks, the Necrons, and the Zerg.
Why is the Primarch still so gloomy
Guilliman did not explain, but just concentrated on looking at the projection of the empire's territory.
The Empire occupies two-thirds of the galaxy.
Vast and boundless.
It is difficult for ordinary people to imagine how magnificent the empire is.
After fusing the memories and actually coming into contact with the galaxy.
Only then will you discover how ignorant and poorly imaginative various documents, novels, film and television dramas and other literary works are in describing the real universe.
The ignorant fear God.
People with wisdom will be in awe of science and the universe.
Those superstitious creators who advocate the gods of heaven portray them as extremely powerful, but they do not realize the vastness of the galaxy.
The distance between two planets is often measured in billions of kilometers, which needs to be calculated in light years.
The speed of light is 300,000 kilometers per second. Even the gods imagined by the ancients might not be able to travel at such a speed.
Even with the speed of light, it would still take a long time to travel between the two places.
Even if the Flash comes, I have to run to death.
The universe is the most awe-inspiring and terrifying existence.
Its vastness is absolutely unimaginable for ordinary people.
The Empire owns two-thirds of the galaxy and is insignificant in the universe.
But anyone who dares to say that the human empire that occupies two-thirds of the galaxy is nothing more than this is ignorant and stupid.
The size of the empire is absolutely unimaginable to mankind throughout history.
The Human Empire is the most unprecedented and magnificent country ever established by mankind in the 40,000 years since the beginning of civilization.
A single hive planet has a population of tens or hundreds of billions.
It also has a large number of fleets, the Astra Militarum, the Crusader Corps, the Sisters, the Titan Order and many other military forces.
Such a terrifying existence is absolutely beyond everyone's imagination.
Only a top-notch person like the Emperor could build such a huge empire without intelligent AI, hypersonic communication and other technological means.
Looking down at the vast territory of the empire, Guilliman's face showed a trace of solemnity.
The Behemoth Zerg invasion has been repelled, and the expeditionary fleet is also encircling the remaining biological ships.
The orc warlord Arsonist had been slain by him.
The Sarken Dynasty, which had been poisoning the Empire's border worlds, has also been destroyed.
The Sotai Dynasty chose to cooperate with him secretly and collect information about the Norwalk Dynasty for him.
The chaos in the Charadon sector has been basically quelled so far.
The next target is the neighbor of the Charadon star zone, the Nephilim star zone.
During the long night when the first human stellar civilization declined and the human empire had not yet been established, this star region had an alien civilization called the Nephilim.
This civilization is extremely vicious. They control humans and use them to incubate themselves and gain power.
During the Great Crusade, this alien civilization was destroyed by Horus and Sanguinius, who had not yet rebelled.
For this reason, this star region was also named the Nephilim star region.
It is worth mentioning that the current base of the Dark Angels, the Stone Fortress, is located in the Nephilim star region.
The Stone Fortress is also known as the Angel's Tower.
It is the home and fortress-monastery of the Dark Angels Chapter.
It is a super-giant ship with extremely strong combat capability.
Equipped with the Empire's most advanced warp drive and shield system.
He has participated in many wars and defeated many enemies of humanity.
The scale of the Stone Fortress is no less than that of the Phalanx, and no less than that of the star fortresses throughout the empire. It is one of the few giant warships in the empire.
This Angel Tower was not built by the Mechanicus using steel, but was built using the remaining land of the Dark Angels' home world of Caliban.
After the Horus Heresy ended, Lion returned to Caliban and discovered that Luther, who was responsible for guarding the mother world Caliban, had launched a rebellion.
Ryan was furious and was determined to kill the traitor at all costs.
However, Luther had already turned Caliban into a giant fortress.
Ryan had no choice but to order the fleet to launch an unprecedented orbital bombardment on his home world.
Violent orbital bombardment and the special power of the Caliban home planet.
Eventually leading to the disintegration of the planet.
Most of the wreckage was sucked into the Warp.
After the rebellion caused by Luther was resolved.
The surviving Dark Angels also looked sad when they saw their home planet shattered into pieces and only debris remained.
On such a huge planet, only the monastery protected by the shield remains intact.
They gathered the debris and built a huge stone fortress around the monastery, spending a lot of time and technology.
This fortress is not made of pure steel, but is built from the wreckage of Caliban.
But its defensive power is one of the most formidable in the empire.
Once the Stone Fortress joins the battlefield, it will be the enemy's nightmare.
After the construction of the Stone Fortress was completed, it began to travel across the galaxy.
According to intelligence from the expeditionary fleet, the Stone Fortress has remained in the Nephilim star region for the past few years, seemingly hunting down some enemy.
Guilliman estimated that they smelled the scent of fallen angels, so they were wandering around the Nephilim sector.
It's really hard for them, they have been tirelessly hunting down the fallen angels for ten thousand years.
Perhaps, this matter could become an important means to win over the Dark Angels and make them stand firmly on his side.
By comparison, Ryan's kids probably don't want this shit to be exposed.
At this stage, it is very important to win over enough imperial forces to stand on one's side.
Not to mention the fact that it can strengthen yourself.
It can also weaken the morale of the powerful people who oppose their policies, and let them know that if a civil war breaks out, no war group will help them.
Tie the Dark Angel to his chariot, and even if Ryan is resurrected, he can be dragged down with him.
The Stone Fortress is something you must visit at least once.
"Sir, what is the next strategic arrangement?" Sicarius looked at his master who was tapping on the table but not saying anything, and reminded him.
