Warhammer: In the Name of Ashes.

Chapter 138 Rain!rain!rain!
"Have you found it?"

The four gray knights shown on the map had stayed somewhere underground for more than 3 minutes, and Calvin guessed that they should have gained something.

"Not sure, boss, you'd better come and see for yourself."

The voice of Fer, who was in charge of reconnaissance in the communicator, was disturbed by the geomagnetic field and was severely distorted.

"Understood, wait for me, I'll be right there."

Calvin waved his hand, and the gray knights around him began to speed up.Now that the next road has been confirmed by the scouts to be okay, they no longer hide their actions.

Ten minutes later, Calvin saw the four of Fell who had gone out to explore on the edge of the wreckage of a hulk.Looking at the platform protruding in front of him, he also lamented the uncanny craftsmanship of nature.

Yes, here is the part where the hulk is inserted into the surface of the planet.

At this position, they were already at a depth of more than minus 3000 meters above sea level. According to Calvin's prediction, this place should be shrouded in darkness.

But the fact was contrary to his speculation. When he walked out of the passage of the hulk, he could actually see the light of distant stars.

This is a trench, or it used to be the deepest part of an ocean.The seawater has long disappeared with the movement of the crustal plates. In the dry environment, only huge canyons and aquatic fossils in the rocks on both sides can prove the existence of the ocean.

The depth of at least tens of thousands of meters in the deepest part is not the most special. The unparalleled length and width are the scales that are rarely seen in normal trenches.

It's not that Calvin has never seen the world, but he has never seen a canyon with a width of tens of kilometers at the bottom, let alone a length that can't be seen from a high altitude.

That's right, even at a depth of minus 3000 meters above sea level, Calvin's location is still overlooking the canyon from a high altitude, and everything at the bottom of the canyon can be seen clearly in his eyes.

Looking across the gray gravel and drought-tolerant fungal organisms of the parched surface, strong warp waves beckoned to him from the far end of the chasm.

What a blasphemous scene that was, even at a distance of nearly a hundred kilometers, he could still see the army of chaotic demons gathering in front of that huge artificial object.

The aura of the warp was polluted by these filthy existences to be colorful and bizarre. Tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of demons were clamoring at the end of the line of sight, and the energy field of more than one big demon was observed by Calvin's psionic vision.

"Can you see the specific situation?"

Calvin asked Jin who was behind him. As far as the detection equipment on him and other gray knights was concerned, that distance had already exceeded the performance limit of the equipment.

He could only turn to Jin for help, to see if the equipment of the throne guards, known as the foundation of adamantine, had more powerful performance.

As expected, Jin also shook his head.

"It's hundreds of kilometers, this distance. It definitely exceeds the original design intention of any individual observation equipment."

"Okay." Calvin was noncommittal, and turned to the cruiser above the track for help.

While connecting to the communication signal in the direction of the orbit, he tried to use the spectrometer to confirm the specific distance.

"Revenant Redeemer, this is Calvin. Request orbit observation data support. Yes, yes, yes, the target coordinates... well, using me as a reference, the north direction is offset by 12 degrees to the right, the distance... wait a moment, I Calculating the curvature... 152 kilometers, plus or minus 3 kilometers. Please send me the latest pictures."

After the communication ended, he also turned off the equipment on the arm armor.Looking at Jin beside him, he smiled maliciously and asked:

"Did you bring a jump bag?"......

The answer is naturally no, whoever serious envoy of the Forbidden Army will bring this thing when going out!

Jin complained crazily in his heart, but he couldn't speak at this moment, because he was being held under Calvin's arm, and he was experiencing the strange and violent low-pressure airflow inside the canyon while rapidly descending from a high altitude.

In the sky around them, other gray knights were also descending with the support of power packs equipped with rocket nozzles, but without exception, after meeting Jin's gaze, they all looked in other directions tacitly.

The detection report of the Revenant Redeemer is very timely, and Calvin, who has not landed in the air, has already received the latest feedback.

Observations on the orbit showed that these demons were composed of a very rare coalition of multiple factions, and they were attacking the man-made ruins under the leadership of at least three suspected four big demons.

The enlarged image of the ruins was compared with the database, and it was confirmed that it was an entrance to the webway of the Eldar, but the dim runes and dilapidated buildings showed that this place should have been abandoned for a long time.

The purpose of the demons is easy to guess. They should want to destroy the psionic suppression equipment here in order to obtain the energy equipment inside the barrier.

Because in this barren world, they get nothing but sand.

Here I have to mention the far-sightedness of the Tribunal. In the records a long time ago, after sealing the subspace gap here, the Tribunal moved all the population on this planet under the notice of the Imperial Army, and even Creatures in the wild also underwent a more complete extinction.And in the next few thousand years, a strict no-flight law was imposed on this galaxy.

If it wasn't for the unexpected appearance of the subspace hulk, the seal here would have maintained its function forever.

And when the seal is really broken, it is difficult for these demons gushing out like a tide to expand the entrance of the subspace through sacrifices, and they can only find ways to cross the distant unmanned space.

Their purpose should be to obtain the energy source here, thereby transforming the hulk here, and finally achieve the goal of leaving here.

This point has been confirmed at a construction site 30 kilometers behind the Webway ruins, where a highly complete spaceship has been built, but how to escape the gravity here is obviously a problem that these demons are troubled with.

"Do we have a Torpedo Torpedo on our ship?" Calvin asked Tibbers above the orbit.

Since there are no Imperial citizens living on this planet, he never minds giving these demons some clean punishment.

"Unfortunately, there is no equipment on the Wraith Redeemer. As your ship, it has not performed missions for 30 years. The Inquisition has clear restrictions on the extermination order. In a single star fleet, there can only be at most two to issue similar weapons. Our order of operations is insufficient to apply for such weapons."

Tibbers explained the specific reason to Calvin: the Revenant Redeemer had been away from the battlefield for a long time, causing its priority to drop rapidly. After evaluation, the Tribunal decided to deploy it to the brother troops who needed him more.

Well, then we can only land and fight.Calvin frowned, and gave the latest instructions to the track.

"Immediately launch an orbital strike! That enchantment can't last long! After the strike is over, let the Astral Army carry out airborne operations! We will arrive within 2 hours!"

"Received. Execute immediately. According to the usual practice, when more than 10 people are transferred, the trial court will record the code and code of the operation. What is the code of this operation?"

"Code name?" Calvin looked up at the distant sky and thought for a while, then replied:

"Codename, Rain of Retribution!"

　Second watch, Piao Piao!
