Chapter 177: The Battle between the Lion and the Tau Empire (Subscription Request)

Views:

Guilliman's words and his gaze were full of truth.

He just looked at Lai En like that, his eyes firm and full of conviction, giving people a natural sense of conviction.

After hearing these words, Ryan looked at Guilliman with a complicated look.

After the Battle of Terra, his Primarch brother had clearly made great progress.

He has his own unique understanding of the existence of the empire and the emperor's cause.

He is trying to fix everything that is wrong.

To put the human empire back on the path they once wanted it to take.

"Can we still do it?" Lai En was a little discouraged.

I'm not trying to pour cold water on you, but if something was impossible to do back then, how can you really do it now

During the Great Crusade, the Empire had eighteen primarchs, as well as the Emperor, Malcador and many other immortals. It was a place of great talent, and the influence of the Dark Gods on the real universe could be said to be minimal.

The Great Crusade ended with Horus's Heresy and attack on Terra.

The fight between father and son ended with one dead and the other seriously injured.

Now, the Emperor sleeps, and many of the Eternals have died in the Great Heresy.

Is there really hope for humanity

"It is not too late," Guilliman said with a smile. "With just a little help from you, humanity will surely regroup and launch a counterattack into the warp."

"Ryan, we failed ten thousand years ago, but now, we will surely succeed." Guilliman's tone became serious. "This is not just empty words to encourage you. This is also what I am determined to achieve. One day, mankind will point its sword at the gods, traverse the stars, and build a supreme empire."

"You are just as arrogant as she is. I hope everything goes as smoothly as you said."

"This is inevitable. You know, I never say anything without confidence."

Ryan regained his strong adult form, fought Luther, and then fell asleep for so long.

He looked more gloomy, and the few scars on his face made him look very weathered.

He lost too much in the great rebellion ten thousand years ago.

The empire was almost reduced to ruins after the betrayal of his brothers.

"Let's go. The Empire urgently needs a commander who can share the burden with me." Guilliman said.

"Then I hope to witness with my own eyes how you can do what even she couldn't do in the past," Ryan said.

Guilliman wanted to say something, but the repulsive feeling surrounding his body suddenly intensified, trying to send him out of this space.

In just a few breaths, the scene before Guilliman became illusory.

Then, everything fell apart.

Guilliman stood in the dimly lit chamber again, several robed Dark Watchers standing beside him.

Although he can easily crush great demons and beat up traitors with his fists, Guilliman's psychic talents are garbage.

If one wants to travel through the warp with spiritual consciousness, one can only rely on the power of the Dark Watcher.

Guilliman wanted to ask why the other party pulled him out.

The conversation was just getting excited, and Guilliman even demonstrated what it meant to get something for nothing.

Give him the title of the Empire's empty war commander, and make him the leader of the First Legion, so that he can know how dangerous the universe is.

Guilliman is now Regent of the Imperium, and Supreme Military Archon.

Even though Lai En got the position of war commander, many troops just obeyed his orders and kept making announcements.

But compared with Horus, who was in charge of the military in the past, it is completely different.

"The Warp is rioting."

A Dark Watcher said weakly, "The essence of the Primarch is very powerful. Once awakened, it will bring a shocking storm. With the awakening of Ryan, this storm is brewing. It will throw the Stone Fortress to other parts of the galaxy at will. If you don't leave in time, you are likely to be taken away. The Human Empire needs your helm, Thirteen. You can't leave with the Stone Fortress, the risk is too great."

Guilliman had to swallow the words that were on the tip of his tongue, "What about Ryan?"

Damn, I just advised you not to make any mistakes again.

The four gods were watching with eager eyes, and Fulgrim and Magnus were gritting their teeth, wishing they could at least come back and share the firepower.

"He will wake up soon. There is no surprise about that." The Dark Watcher said, "Now, No. 13, you must leave the Stone Fortress as soon as possible. Otherwise, this place will drag you into the turbulence of time and space."

Guilliman glanced at the ritual platform that was still emitting psychic fluctuations, and after leaving a few words of advice, he turned and left.

Guilliman could still tell what was more important.

If he had been out of touch for a year or two, Terra would probably be in a state of turmoil.

Those conservatives are shouting that once the regent dies, the emperor will be re-established, power will be restored to the nobility, and the destiny will be decided.

He couldn't take the risk.

It's good enough if Lai En can wake up. We'll send someone to find him when the time comes.

Leaving behind a group of technical priests who had absorbed the latest knowledge, Guilliman returned to the Macragge's Glory with Sicarius and others.

As the huge flagship sailed to safety.

The violent subspace energy turned into endless waves, layer after layer, tearing apart the structure of space and time and forming a huge crack.

The crack looked like a cut in the starry sky, with a strange light flowing through it.

The gap formed by the crack swallowed the huge stone fortress and then disappeared.

Guilliman stood on the observation deck platform of the Macragge's Glory.

Through the porthole, he watched the Stone Fortress being carried away by that force, which was an overflow of power brought about by Ryan's awakening.

The power of the Primarch is extremely terrifying.

Even without the blessing of the Four Gods, once awakened, it would be extremely powerful.

The Daemon Primarch had undoubtedly done the stupidest thing possible.

I bought myself and got back what originally belonged to me.

However, if he had a normal mind, he would not have followed Horus all the way to the end.

Sicarius and Cawl stood beside him, accompanying their lord.

The scene fell into silence for a while until the voice of Captain Brahe of Macragge's Glory was heard.

"Mr. Regent, what is our next mission?"

Guilliman withdrew his mind from the vast starry sky.

Now Ryan has woken up.

The First Primarch has awakened.

It's time to get busy with other things.

Today, the situation in the empire is complicated.

There is a powerful enemy, Abaddon, outside and conservative forces inside.

It can be said that there are internal and external troubles, and the situation is extremely dangerous.

After wasting so much time, it is time to continue my plan of the Indomitable Expedition.

"Return to Terra," said Guilliman.

After settling Terra, he continued his Indomitable Crusade.

Expel the aliens and demons from the Imperial Sanctuary.

Go to the home planets of different chapters and see if you can get other hints and recall the original body first.

The more loyal Primarchs came back, the less pressure there would be on him.

Of course, there are potential risks.

The Primarch has strong appeal, and if we are not careful something like the Horus Heresy could happen again.

Guilliman turned around and walked towards his own strategy room.

Caul followed closely behind, his heavy steel body moving forward with the help of an anti-gravity suspension platform and mechanical legs.

"Cawl, how is the gene-seed work with the Primarchs going?" Guilliman asked as they walked.

"Before I left for Terra, we had already completed the genetic chain required for the super soldiers. We abandoned the traditional method of using the Primarch as the anchor and instead used Guilliman's Heart as the anchor. In five years at most, we will be able to complete mass production and mass-produce Astartes without the Primarch."

Guilliman nodded. "This plan is strictly confidential. No one except you and me can know about it. When the non-Primordials gene warriors become the mainstream and occupy more than 80% of the Astartes in the Empire, it will be time to reveal this secret."

"Understood," Kaul said respectfully.

Sicarius and many of the Honor Guards remained silent and followed their lord without saying a word.

They are well aware that sometimes, there are things that don't require them to speak out.

Guilliman did not doubt the loyalty of his fellow Primarchs.

But oftentimes, loyalty can be a bad thing.

The road to hell always looks beautiful at the beginning.

Those who do not plan for eternity are not qualified to plan for the moment.

... ... ... ... ... ... .

... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ..

The Far Eastern frontier, the planet Havers.

Aferan looked around the battle hall, his eyes hardening.

There are no luxurious furnishings here.

Its floors, walls, and ceiling are made of dark bedrock.

At the end of the hall, a sculpture of Ryan stands.

Aferan, a member of the Watchers Chapter, paid tribute to his blood father for the last time here.

The Watchers have a very long history and are a sub-group of the Dark Angels.

Every chapter is a Primarch, and their superhuman strength comes from a great Primarch who is loyal to humanity and the Empire.

After the establishment of the Watchers, it moved away from the political center of Terra and ran to the Far East to guard and prevent the alien invasion of the human world.

They have fought countless battles and protected humanity for thousands of years.

After the Great Rift appeared, the Watchers also lost contact with their other brother chapters.

Under the bombardment of countless requests for help from the Warp, Aferan had no choice but to send out the Astartes monks in his hands.

He could not sit idly by and watch other Imperial worlds fall.

Aferan sent troops to those worlds that requested assistance to help them through the difficult times.

And those damn aliens, the Tau Empire, which claimed to be the future master of the galaxy, took the opportunity to launch an attack.

It is truly despicable and shameless, taking advantage of someone's misfortune.

But Aferan also knew that it was pointless to condemn the enemy, the galaxy was cruel like that.

The only thing he could do was to stop the invasion of the Tau Empire as much as possible and ask for support from other brother forces of the Empire.

However, the emergence of the Great Rift rendered all astronomical messages for help in vain.

At this point, Aferan knew he was heading for failure.

The only place the Watcher Corps can garrison is the Monastery Fortress.

"Forgive me." Aferan looked at the sculpture of Ryan and said with some pain, "My mission may have ended here. I will die with honor."

Heavy footsteps came from behind Aferan.

The steel boots made a dull thumping sound as they stepped on the bedrock floor.

A warrior in scarred armor walked in, and the sword and decorations on his waist collided with each other, and the crisp sound echoed in the hall.

"Andor, Odama has lost contact, and those damn blueskins are heading towards the monastery." said the warrior.

Aferan turned to look at the warrior. There was not a single undamaged area on his armor.

The shine had worn off, the paint worn away to reveal bare ceramite, and in places there were traces of rapid welding.

Since the Tau Empire came to the surface, they have launched several wars.

"How many of them are there?" Afelan asked.

"An army," the soldier said. "The preliminary estimate is about 60,000 people. A large number of them are well-trained and have fierce firepower. The defenders on the planet Havers have been beaten to a pulp, and we have gathered some of the remnants."

"How many of us are there?"

"There are still one hundred Astartes Brothers, and the remnants of the garrison number about three thousand."

"Is this the last of our strength?" Aferan said.

"Yes, the last force. There was no response to the message for help sent by the Astropath. We are isolated and helpless."

"Then let's prepare for the final battle." Aferan placed his hand on the warrior's shoulder armor. "Those damn blueskins will know that the price of defeating the Space Marines is unacceptable to them."

Aferan walked out of the battle hall and along the path in the center of the cathedral.

The last of the Watchers gathered together and sang the Lion's Song.

They are the sons of the noble Lion.

They never forget that they come from Caliban, nor that they will return to the Emperor's Throne.

All the warriors were wearing black armor, many of the original paint having been worn off in battle, the blood and flames of the battlefield reshaping the color of their armor, turning it black.

Aferan stood at the pulpit in the cathedral, with the priest standing to his left.

He gazed upon the last of his Chapter brothers.

There are only a hundred people left.

This includes more than half of the new blood.

They had never experienced any battles. Due to the emergency situation, they had to be forcibly awakened from their blood sublimation in advance, put on the armor of their ancestors, and thrown into this war that had no choice but to win.

Aferan said nothing. He sang along with the other brothers, using the singing to strengthen the blood bond of the Gene Father in their bodies.

They will fight side by side.

They will go to death hand in hand.

This is the last singing.

When it is over, they will embark on the path of sacrifice for the Primarch and the Emperor.

A tall dreadnought was mixed among them, and inside the sarcophagus was a mutilated old soldier sleeping.

He was yelling the lyrics through a megaphone, and it was awful to hear.

But no one cares.

Tears streamed down Aferan's face. The Watchers were about to be wiped out.

The new blood is cut off and the old soldiers are passing away.

This defeat was a devastating blow to the Overwatch Chapter, from which they would never recover.

When the Lion's Song came to an end, Afelan put away his last sorrow.

Never let the enemy see your weakness.

When the last echo died away in the cathedral's stone tablets, Aferan returned to its old calm.

He spoke in a firm and clear voice, and all the brothers listened to him.

"The fury of the lion flows in our blood. Even though the Primarch has been gone for countless years, his power still flows in our bodies. Perhaps this battle will be our last, but the blood of Lion will never cease."

"Those aliens thought they would win. No, we will tell them that defeating the Space Marines will cost them a price they cannot afford. Chaos has spread across the Imperium, and all worlds have fallen into unrest and darkness. Even Terra has no information. But we will never compromise. The darkness will be defeated, and the future belongs to mankind."

Aferan raised his weapon. "We will stand together, we will march hand in hand. Let us march together, with our common blood in our arms. The sons of Rhion will never be cowards."

"Son of Lai En, never be a coward."

"Son of Lai En, never be a coward."

"Son of Lai En, never be a coward."

The last watchers shouted slogans and let out their final roar.

Their voices shook the monastery.

"A glorious death, the final battle," Aferan shouted.

... ... ... ... ... ... ... .

... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ..

“We are on the verge of victory.”

Tai Wa looked at the Fire Caste warriors in front of him. They were full of energy and high morale.

No one would doubt the authenticity of Taiwa's words.

Humanity was losing ground, and all the huge cities had surrendered, leaving only one last stronghold of resistance.

“Let us spread the Greater Good to this world and let them know that this era no longer belongs to them.”

The commander's voice rang out over the comms, inspiring the warriors of the Fire Caste.

They all clenched their fists and pounded their chests to show their loyalty to Ether and swore an oath before battle.

Will win.

"Attack and complete the final hunt." Tai Wa shouted, he activated the propulsion device on his combat suit, leaped into the sky, flew over the city, and flew towards the final battlefield.

The Fire Clan members in charge of the advance also followed his example, turning on their thrusters and rushing towards the empire's last fortress.

On the ground, the heavy bipedal walking tanks were also taking heavy steps amid the hissing sound of electromagnetic waves.

They are huge in size, one level larger than the Dreadnought.

The driver's nervous system is directly connected to the sensors and the operation center, allowing them to work well as a whole.

Huge electromagnetic and plasma cannons are installed under their shoulders, giving them a sense of technology.

As they approached the majestic, aesthetically pleasing fortress, the defensive artillery began to attack the Tau Empire's Fire Warriors.

Titanium Wa activated the tactical module and set the avoidance value so that the combat suit could avoid the dense artillery fire.

The monastery has put up a shield.

Although the technology of the human empire is barbaric, it should not be underestimated.

The shield can withstand starship-level bombardment, and with the weapons in their hands, it is impossible to break the shield head-on.

The only way is to slow down and slow the combat suit down to a speed low enough to pass through the shield.

Reducing speed also brings certain risks.

After all, human artillery is not vegetarian.

The anti-aircraft guns fired continuously, forming covering fire.

Many Fire Caste warriors died under the firepower offensive of the human defenders, and their combat uniforms were torn to pieces by the huge explosion.

Titanium Wa saw that the online signals of several of his comrades turned gray and then disappeared from the display panel.

He risked a quick look and saw the Fire Clan warrior that had been hit turned into thick smoke and explosion in the sky, with only fragmented limbs flying around with the power of the blast.

"Hateful." Tai Wa whispered, he was full of anger.

These damn humans, the Tau Empire brought salvation, but they still resist so stubbornly, they really don’t know what is good for them.

After passing the shield, Titanium Wa reduced the power of the thrusters and fell directly from the sky, continuously shooting with the magnetic rail spear in his hand.

The bodies of those human defenders were instantly blown into pieces by the attack of supersonic bullets.

The titanium tile fell to the ground, and in just a short while, at least ten bodies fell near him.

The defenders showed a look of fear on their faces and fled back in panic.

Their equipment is no match for the Tau Empire.

Tasting the fear of these stupid humans, Tai Wa continued to shoot without any mercy.

For not submitting to the Greater Good immediately, these guys should be put to death.

Titanium uses the mobility of its combat suit to move around the battlefield.

Using the guidance of the combat suit's tactical system, a team of drones flew past according to Titanium's wishes.

The heavy machine gun drones acted as offensive firepower units, sweeping out those heavy weapons strongholds for him and suppressing them.

Detection drones provide him with battlefield intelligence.

Comprehensive battlefield information and superior firepower suppression give Titanium Wa all the advantages in the fighting on the battlefield.

He had already locked onto the enemy before the enemy discovered him.

Many enemies are unaware of this.

Until the moment of their death, they were dazed and knew nothing about the enemy that was hunting them.

Relying on the crushing power of technology, Titanium Tiles easily defeats those fools who do not know how to submit to the Greater Good.

Another shot blew up the head of the human defender, and the human outer defense line was breached.

Ti Wa and several other Fire Caste warriors started their propulsion engines again and flew high up.

The Emperor's Angels, clad in black armor, began to appear.

They raised their bolters and fired at the Fire Caste warriors.

This is much more dangerous than those weak mortal troops, whose shots never miss.

A bolter bullet hit Tiawa's body, staggering him.

Immediately afterwards, more bombs hit him.

Fortunately, a Heavy Shield Drone helped him block the fire.

The heavy-shield drone exploded at high altitude, and the power of the explosion caused Titanium Wa's flight to be violently shaken.

Those Emperor Angels formed their own shooting ranges, throwing the Fire Caste warriors into chaos.

"Don't panic, fight back, and request fire support." Titanium Wa spoke to comfort them and requested artillery fire from the rear.

Ten seconds later, dozens of drones swarmed in, and dense lasers shot at the Emperor Angels.

In the sky, several missiles whizzed in, dragging tails of fire and hitting the enemy's defensive positions.

Two Emperor Angels were blown away directly, and their shattered bodies fell from the high wall.

The others also hid away, greatly reducing the pressure on the flying Fire Warriors.

The advantage of the Tau Empire lies in its firepower and highly integrated combat system.

Titanium is well aware of this.

He would never waste the Tau's strengths by engaging in close combat with the Empire.

What we want is fire suppression and crushing.

Wearing a combat suit, Titanium Wa flew high into the sky using its thrusters, and then dropped from the sky like a heavy bone crusher, landing heavily on the ground with a dull sound.

"Your time has come to die, you stupid savage creatures."

Tiwa yelled.

His voice was heard above the billowing smoke, boosting the morale of the other Fire Clan warriors.

Titanium Wa kept pulling the trigger, and the railgun in his hand kept firing.

The Railgun is a powerful weapon, capable of penetrating enemy armor and shields with ease.

Even the armor of the Emperor Angel can be easily broken.

Other members of the Fire Clan also rushed forward, forming a fire suppression force on the Emperor's Angels.

These guys are formidable adversaries.

According to the research of the Tau Empire and the information provided by those humans, these guys were created by the Corpse King who had become a skeleton. They were endowed with extremely terrifying power and were the strongest warriors of the Empire.

These guys are also the most fearsome fighters in the galaxy.

Wherever they went, no planet dared to stand against them.

Many planets wanted independence, but were frightened by these terrible dictator thugs and were forced to continue to submit to Terra.

The Fire Caste will put an end to their mythology.

The Tau Empire will replace the Human Empire and become the overlord of the galaxy, bringing peace and a future to all races in the galaxy.

"For the Greater Good." The titanium tile hit an Emperor Angel, and the opponent's helmeted head was blown into pieces.

The Fire Caste warriors broke into the fortress with advanced technology and overwhelming numerical advantage.

The battle was hard fought.

Those Emperor Angels are not someone to be trifled with.

They fired wildly, and the brutal weapons killed Tia Wa's comrades, leaving the dead in pieces, with broken limbs and debris everywhere.

Unfortunately, their numbers are too small.

The Tau Empire has tens of thousands of troops and a steady stream of support.

Tai Wa and others finally won.

The Emperor's Angels were defeated and their leaders finally retreated into their halls.

Many Fire Clan warriors surrounded the hall, trying to capture the commander alive.

"Give up, you have already failed." Titanium Wa stood outside with the heavy-shield drone blocking in front of him.

The Emperor's Angels are very stubborn and will not hesitate to drag their opponents to death if given the slightest chance.

Titanium Wa must be prepared and not be dragged to death by the other party.

"Dream on, alien. You will surely face the wrath of the Empire." Aferan held a battle axe and yelled at the alien outside the door.

At his feet lay the bodies of more than a dozen Fire Clan warriors.

They tried to capture Aferan by force, but he killed them instead and they became his trophies before his death.

"Foolish, the Greater Good is superior to your beliefs. Under the guidance of Ether, you will have hope and a future." said Taiwa.

"Pah." Aferan spat out a mouthful of thick phlegm. "Your promises make me sick. When you understand the cruelty of this universe, you will know that the so-called Greater Good is nothing but a scam."

Ti Wa frowned.

This guy's mind is extremely stubborn, and it seems there is no need to continue to win him over.

No more time and the lives of the Fire Caste warriors can be wasted.

Go to hell.

With a wave of his hand, Ti Wa ordered the troops to advance.

Since the other party refuses to surrender, we can only wipe him out.

Just a pathetic guy.

The Fire Caste warriors swarmed in, and the drones opened fire at the same time.

Aferan let out a battle cry, shouting the name of Ryan, and launched a final attack.

But he was facing hundreds of Fire Clan warriors and a huge number of Drones.

Even though he showed fearless courage, it was difficult to change the final outcome.

"Son of a lion, never be a coward."

Before his head was blown off by a railgun bullet, Aferan shouted his last slogan.

The heavy body fell down with a loud bang.

He fell on the bodies of the dead Fire Clan warriors.

He killed many enemies by himself.

Unfortunately, he failed to win the final victory.

"Foolish belief." Taiwa walked to Aferan and said disdainfully, "Foolish creature, the lion you mentioned cannot save you. The human empire is doomed to fall."

... ... ... ... ... .

... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ..

Enter physical space.

A mechanical voice came from the mouth of the machine slave.

Many crew members were running back and forth.

The control officers looked nervous.

The subspace is very active, just like the turbulent waves in the sea.

They must be careful to ensure that this magnificent fortress is not destroyed by the forces of the Warp.

The power of the immaterial world expanded and tightened, and the space-time structure of the real universe was torn apart with a desperate scream.

Accompanied by waves of unclean light, the majestic and huge stone fortress broke free from the warp and returned to the real universe.

The wall suddenly opened up its circulation pipes, spewing out boiling steam.

The air inside the fortress was also released as the gravity device stabilized, and a shock wave swept through the huge fortress.

The energy supply system stabilized with a crackling sound.

The plasma energy stack provides energy to each system to the maximum extent.

The flashing Lumen light became steady.

All systems are running smoothly under the control of the Mechanical Priests and Technical Sergeants.

They escaped the terrible warp storm and left that dangerous place and came to somewhere in the galaxy.

In the spacious hall of the Stone Fortress, Azrael, Ezekiel, Boris and many other dark angels knelt on one knee, holding an unactivated weapon in one hand and the other hand clenched into a fist on their chest.

Even the heavy dreadnoughts raised their weapons to express the greatest respect.

On the throne in the hall, a tall man, like a giant, sat on the throne.

He rested his elbows on the arms of the chair that held the orc, and clasped his fingers in front of him, almost touching his lips.

His blond hair was draped behind his head, and his wild green eyes, unique to the forests of Caliban, were unblinking.

He stared at the holographic projection in front of him and the images recorded by the optical device.

Every dark angel showed absolute submission and loyalty to him.

Simply because, this man is the Lord of the First Legion, the Primarch of the Dark Angels, the Emperor's Eldest Son, the First Eldar, the Lion King, and the Keeper of the Emperor's Secrets.

In the empire, only the imperial regent who holds an important position can nominally surpass him.

"Where are we?" Ryan looked at the Dark Angel Grandmaster Azrael and asked casually.

"We are now in a remote galaxy, my lord. According to the Thinker's database analysis, this is the Far Eastern Frontier, the planet Havers, a second-level industrial planet."

His eyes were filled with excitement and excitement.

Even the tone of his voice showed some uncontrollable excitement.

A technical sergeant hurried in.

"Sir, the planet Havers did not respond to our inquiry. Instead, an alien signal was sent. They claimed that we had invaded their territory and demanded that we immediately disarm and accept their inspection."

"Alien?" Lai En frowned slightly.

"Yes, it's an alien signal. After preliminary analysis by the technical sergeant, he believed that the signal belonged to the Tau Empire." The technical sergeant nodded several times and responded to Ryan.

"This place belongs to the Empire. No matter what the situation was before, it belongs to the Empire now. Let them go, or shoot them all down."

Ryan stood up.

During the Great Crusade, he roamed the edge of the galaxy, strangling the aliens.

He knew that those aliens were abominable.

They are minions of Chaos, or part of it.

The Empire has never been kind to the xenos.

As the executioner of the aliens, it is even more impossible for Ryan to compromise with the aliens.

Whether the planet has fallen or has never been controlled by humans.

Now, it's all part of the Empire.

Those opposing races and forces will turn into cosmic dust and no one will remember them.

... ... ... ... ... ... ... .

... ... ... ... ... ... ... ..

Commander Xia, who was standing in the control room of the Fortress Master-class battleship, looked at the display screen in front of him, and his blue face turned ugly.

An extremely huge fortress descended upon the starry sky with a massive fleet.

The golden double-headed eagle above is extremely clear.

This symbol told the numerous Tau Empire fleets which force this sudden fleet belonged to.

Human beings.

This mysterious, suddenly arriving fleet belongs to the Human Empire.

That corrupt, cruel, yet extremely terrifying empire.

"How could they be so fast?" Commander Xia's tone became serious. "Outside, it usually takes them decades or even hundreds of years to react."

The Tau Empire's research on the Human Empire can be said to be very thorough.

The Empire of Man is powerful.

But their huge size makes them extremely inefficient in everything they do.

A counterattack may take decades or even hundreds of years to prepare.

But now, they had just taken over the Havers galaxy, and the punishment of the Human Empire came.

It happened so quickly that people were caught off guard.

Of course, he would not be afraid.

"Send an order to the Tau forces near Havos to support us as quickly as possible. The size of this fleet far exceeds the human fleet in the Battle of Damocles. If they gain control of Havos, we are likely to lose a series of our newly acquired home worlds."

Commander Xia is very confident in the Tau Empire and believes that this fleet may cause some trouble.

But the final outcome must be that the Tau Empire wins the ultimate victory.

You know, the human empire is too corrupt.

In the past, they were forced to flee in disgrace during the Battle of Damocles when their forces were several times greater than those of the Tau Empire.

Only after abandoning 50% of the troops and trying to die together did the Tau Empire suffer heavy casualties.

Today, the military power of the Tau Empire is growing stronger, and it has also created the Star Tide Hub, a megastructure technology that can quickly jump between stars.

They were able to deal a heavy blow to the human empire on the planet Havers, letting them know that this galaxy no longer belonged to them.

The human empire has fallen into unprecedented chaos. This is the best time for the rise of the Tau Empire.

The planet Havers will never be returned to humanity.

"Send an alert to all troops, tell them that the battle is not over yet, the human reinforcements are coming."

... ... ... ...

... ... ... ... ... ... ... ..

A shrill alarm sounded.

Echoing in every corner of the planet Havers.

Ti Wa, who had just conquered the Watchers, looked a little confused.

He looked up at the sky and heard the commander's voice over the comms.

"The battle is not over yet. Human reinforcements are coming. Be prepared and give them a head-on blow."

Hearing this, Tai Wa clicked the button on the side of his helmet, revealing his blue face.

He looked up into the sky and smiled.

It's really surprising that those stupid and inefficient humans reacted so quickly this time.

"Another wonderful hunt." Tai Wa whispered, "I wonder what kind of prey I will get this time."

In various hive cities on the planet Havers, the Tau Empire personnel who were accepting the surrender of human dignitaries also heard the alarm.

Those Tu clan members in charge of diplomacy were not at all panicked.

After many battles, they have come to realize that the Human Empire is just a paper tiger.

The technology is backward, the personnel are ignorant, the administration is inefficient, and the tactics are old-fashioned.

The only way for them to defeat the Tau Empire is to use their huge size to crush it, otherwise they have no chance of winning.

In the past, the Tau Empire would have been afraid of the huge size of the Human Empire and would not have dared to be too radical and provoke this declining ancient force.

But now, the human empire has encountered unprecedented changes, and the entire empire has been torn apart.

Their main forces were busy putting out fires everywhere and had no ability to take care of matters on the border.

Without the advantage in numbers, the Imperial forces were no match for the Tau Empire.

Even if reinforcements come, they will just be sending themselves to death, so they are not a big deal.

"We swear eternal allegiance to the Greater Good and the great Aether. You have rescued us, please do not let us return to that terrible dictatorial empire." A nobleman carefully made the promise in front of the Tu clan diplomats, and the other nobles did the same.

"Don't worry, there is nothing to worry about." The Tu clan diplomat said in standard Gothic, "The Greater Good will defeat that corrupt empire."

"Please be careful. The troops of the Human Empire are very fanatical. They will stop at nothing to recover the territory of the Corpse King." said the nobleman.

"Don't worry." The Tu clan diplomat comforted him, "We have made all preparations. Fleets from other worlds are ready to support us at any time. The Tau Empire has complete industrial capabilities, and its war potential is not comparable to that of the corrupt human empire."

"Long live the Ether. The glory of the Greater Good will be immortal and will surely shine brightly across the galaxy."

The nobleman said this very piously, causing the Tu clan diplomats to smile with satisfaction.

After the other person left, another powerful person came over.

"Is this really okay for us?"

"There is a good saying in Gutai: He who knows the times is a hero."

"But now, the Empire's support has arrived. What if these blueskins lose?"

"Lose? How did they lose? Didn't you see that the Corpse Empire was always beaten to a pulp by the Tau Empire in the past? If we express our stance in advance, we can gain more of their trust."

"I always feel that this is not a good idea. We should be more cautious and wait until they defeat the imperial reinforcements."

"It will be too late. You must surrender as soon as possible. If you surrender too late, you won't even get a sip of soup. Now, tear down all the sculptures in the emperor's churches and use them to pave the road. Let the craftsmen start carving the great Lord Ether immediately."

"Does it really have to be so excessive?"

"How can this be called excessive? We have already planned to join the Tau Empire, why do we still keep those things? Smash them all."

The radical words of that powerful person have been supported by others. Since they have already surrendered, it is better to do it thoroughly.

In this way, they can also show their determination to the Tau Empire.

Those who objected eventually agreed.

After all, in so many conflicts, it was basically the Tau Empire that had the last laugh.

This time, it looks like there will be no exception.

The Emperor is dead, Ether is in power.
