Warhammer: In the Name of Ashes.

The naval battle in the Ophelia galaxy is still fierce, but in the several hours of artillery confrontation, the fleet of the Chaos side has already shown signs of defeat.

The battle on the Lost Truth was a turning point in the war.

Since it fell into the gang attack of the Gray Knights, two of the other four heavy cruisers that belonged to it also stepped into its footsteps. After being defeated by the shield, they became the jumping ships of the Krieger space fighters. Tactical targets to help strike.

The three huge space behemoths fell silent one after another. At this point in the battle of the Chaos Fleet, only two heavy cruisers were left in the main fleet, still stubbornly resisting.

The battle aboard the Lost Truth continues.

Under its bridge, the armed Alpharius left the meeting hall and walked alone in the empty corridor of the battleship.

At the entrance of the auditorium hundreds of meters away, Alpha was still relying on its terrain advantage to resist the intense attack of the Gray Knights.

But judging from the increasingly rare gunshots from the old-fashioned Mark III bolt guns ahead, it can be known that there are not many Alpha fighters who are still resisting.

Calmly passing through the two open bulletproof gates, Alpharius avoided the frontal combat area;

After activating the optical camouflage on the power armor, this special Astartes activated some special talent of his own, and quietly moved towards the edge of the battlefield.

boom!
The wall of another metal cabin was violently torn apart by the gray knights. Alpha, who was hiding in it, failed again in his ambush attempt, and fled backward in embarrassment under the fire of the storm-type double-linked bolter.

This is already his company, and in just ten minutes there were several firefights with No.60 of the Gray Knights;

After the continuous tactical actions were seen through, it was difficult for them to gain a firm foothold in the face of the powerful blow of the Gray Knights.

From the beginning of the battle with these gray armor's relatives, the Alphas have deeply felt the all-round crushing from tactics to personal qualities.

This is by no means a joke, and it's not that Alphas underestimate themselves.

At least in the eyes of Savile, who is struggling to breathe behind the load-bearing steel beam, aside from the inexplicable understanding of these relatives, these Astartes are definitely one of the most powerful enemies he has ever seen in his life one.

Well, maybe not one of them.

Who are they?

Savile has no time to think about this issue. He and the surviving veterans have received orders to guard the Hall of Honor to buy time for the main force to retreat.

How do they know us so well?Savile doesn't know the answer to that question.

But since the company commander Seaman in charge was "coincidentally" seen through the tactical actions three times in a row, and was sieved by two heavy bolt guns in front of his eyes, he and the rest of the alphas have given up all the commonly used tactical codes , resisting only by experience and instinct.

Why do they have so many psykers?
Savile didn't dare to think about it.

He habitually tensed his nerves, always alert to the possible fluctuations of spiritual energy around him, and covered the possible teleportation space in the rear with his peripheral vision.

The enemy's teleportation ability is too strong, and has been popularized to the level of conventional tactical actions.

He and his brother didn't think of this at the beginning of the battle, and they were sent to the center after several teleportations by the enemy, and lost control of the field after suffering heavy casualties.

Or are they all wizards?
It's not that Savile hasn't seen Thousand Sons before. Although the heirs of Magnus who are active in the Eye of Terror are all powerful and surreptitious.

But even if you have a little understanding of them, you will know that all witchcraft requires a long preparation time, and even the spells prepared in advance require some gestures and rituals to start.

However, I saw with my own eyes that Malthus, the champion swordsman of his own family, launched a surprise attack after being concealed to the charging distance, and then threw a bolt gun at the opponent, and raised his hand to incinerate Malthus into powder with psionic lightning.

Xavier had given up attempting to analyze the spell movements of these unfamiliar Astartes wizards:

Their abilities may be extremely single, but the power they possess is pure enough.

Pure is powerful, and this principle is equally useful in the Eye of Terror.

What's more, their martial arts also have problems, which belong to the martial arts of the guards of the Imperial Army!

In the battle just now, Savile didn't have time to observe in detail.

However, relying on his deep instinct for intelligence gathering, he discovered the outrageous power weapons of these Astartes apart from their average height of more than 2.5 meters.

As far as he knew, the Alphas were already the group with the highest average height and build among the [-] legions because of the secrecy of their legion identities and the suddenness of their tactical strikes.

However, in the previous close encounters where he was teleported and hit, Savile still clearly discovered from a third-party perspective:

The average enemy size is two points bigger than them!

But also because of their power weapons and obviously stronger body shape, when these gray armored Astartes performed those martial arts that were obviously used in civil war.

It was only in one encounter that they caused such bloody damage to Savile's company!
boom!boom!boom!
It was another round of precise shooting, which made several molten gaps in the steel pillar that Savile had used as a cover, and the crossfire line established with his comrades just now collapsed again under such strong suppression.

The number of gray knights in front of them is decreasing in an orderly manner, but Savile knows that they are dividing their troops to cleanse the middle and lower mortal crew.

The enemy's grasp of victory is so firm, behind its fixed and methodical attack is the indiscriminate strangulation of all life on the entire battleship.

how to spell?Confused eyes flashed across the eyes of Savile and his comrades.

This is not a wavering of will, the nature of the Astartes also determines that they will never be intimidated by death.

But the task left to him by the main force has not yet been completed, and the bottom line of the defensive task behind him - the auditorium, is less than 100 meters away.

Change!
After trying all the possibilities, the last bloodiness belonging to the space fighter surged up in Savile's mind;

Since he is doomed to fail to complete the task he shoulders, then exchanging his own death for the damage of the enemy is also a decent ending.

Nerve signals are servo-conducted from the black carapace to the power armor, and the life support device in the power armor is ordered to inject the remaining hormones and nutrients at once.

Feeling the vigorous power in his body again, Saville met the eyes of his comrades across the bunker.

At the end of the suppression of the gray knights' firepower, Savile listened to the enemy's shooting with his ears up, ready to charge forward at the moment of reloading...

"Go! Long live Alpha!"

Saville roared angrily and rushed out from behind the bunker. After holding the bolt bombs of the Gray Knights on duty with his shoulder armor, he crazily emptied the magazines in his hands to the Gray Knights in front of him.

His comrades rose from cover at the same time, opening the way for him with their heavy bolters.

He took the chainsword in his hand and rushed in front of the gray knights, preparing for the final gladiatorial fight with the enemy.

And his comrade-in-arms was detected by the gray knights at the first time, and his head was taken away by a siren-type armor-piercing projectile in the next second.

"Hydra Supreme!"

Saville raised the chainsaw sword in his hand high, and his tense muscles were ready to contract in the next second.

He was ready to die with the enemy, but when he saw the gray knight waiting for him in front of him, his heart was as cold as the dark space outside the battleship...

The arbiter of this team had clearly seen through his intentions and was prepared.

When Savile rushed in front of the gray knight with red eyes, what awaited him was the left hand raised high by the arbitrator, and the dazzling lightning that was ready to go out on the palm of his hand...

"Kill~ ah!"

He roared and tried to cut off the sharp blade in his hand, but the lightning in the hand of the Gray Knight Arbiter was one step ahead of him. While bombarding his body, it also caused his arm to start violent spasms uncontrollably...

Bah!
Savile, who had lost all his muscle control, fell limply to the ground. He had already lost his fighting ability. At this time, besides the huge buzzing, the only thing he could hear was the alarm sound of the power armor's failure.

The arbiter's heavy footsteps sounded above his head, and the clang of the power sword's activation made him know that the end of his long life had come.

"Nine……"

Just when the arbitrator raised the sharp sword in his hand and was about to execute Savile.A big hand wrapped in steel armor arrived at an unknown time, and lightly pressed the former's hands.

Instantly feeling abnormal, the Gray Knight exerted all his strength instinctively, but under the terrifying power of the visitor, he was easily thrown out by the opponent together with the nearly ton-heavy holy shield tactical dreadnought armor on his body.

boom!boom!boom!boom!
Intensive bolt bombs appeared at the position just now, and there were hideous bullet marks on the steel deck and the terrifying hiss of diamond warheads jumping.

But judging from the fact that these gray knights retreated instead of advancing, and began to shrink into a defensive formation dignifiedly, they had already lost their target lock on the coming people in just a moment.

++ Vital signs scan failed, target not found! ++
++ Infrared scan failed, target not found! ++
++ Immediately call branch...++
The communication on the psychic channel is like lightning and flint, which can be completed in an instant.

But before the third sentence finished appearing in everyone's minds, the wall of the cabin next door was instantly torn apart.

An unpretentious big hand, exactly the same as the one that stopped the arbitrator just now, was getting bigger and bigger in the eyes of the head arbiter at the moment when the gray knights couldn't react...

boom!
The shock wave caused by the huge force confrontation caused the gray knights present to retreat in embarrassment, and Savile, who had recovered from his total disability, just got up.

In the central open space between him and the gray knights, there was a scene that made him tremble all over, and that he would never forget.

Calvin, who sensed the abnormality in front of him, had already teleported to the scene. In front of his huge body nearly four meters high, was an Astartes warrior who looked no different from all Alphas.

The two giants who made everyone present instinctively fear, while wrestling with each other in a static confrontation, their eyes are also observing each other with great interest:
"You seem very special..." Calvin asked with a smile.

Facing Calvin's burly height, the mysterious Alpha also looked carefully at the strange Primarch in front of him and responded:
"You too……"
