Warhammer: Beginning with Planetary Governors

Chapter 748 Savior: This is not how you fight a war! Cross-dimensional orbital firepower strike!
"Execute Instruction Number 13!"

As Grand Master Coven spoke, he activated the mechanical box on the ground and then stepped back.

The mechanical box expanded amidst the flickering electric arcs, forming a mechanical device over three meters tall.

It looks like a signal transmitter.

Afterwards, about a dozen Grey Knight technical sergeants took heavy mechanical backpacks from their backs and placed them inside the signal transmitter, forming a larger-scale mechanical facility.

It looks extremely complicated.

"guard!"

Numerous heavily armed Grey Knight warriors stepped forward to establish a defensive line to protect the precious mechanical facility.

The Grey Knights of the Seventh Brotherhood had no intention of attacking the city, nor did they pay any attention to the Sadistic Duke and the Chaos Demon on the walls of Purgatory Fortress.

Under the chaotic gaze, they methodically assembled a large subspace device.

"Could those be siege weapons?" The sadistic duke looked at the Grey Knights' unusual behavior, somewhat puzzled.

Even if they could assemble a heavy cannon or some kind of special offensive device.

It would also be impossible to breach the walls of Purgatory Fortress.

The fortress's walls of flesh and blood, as well as its fel shield, were originally built to defend against an army's attack.

"Blacksmith, destroy that human mechanical creation!" The sadistic duke didn't understand what was going on.

But he knew that whatever the Grey Knights wanted to do, he had better not let them achieve their goal.

Now that the Grey Knights have entered the attack range of the Flesh Wall, it's the perfect time to strike.

As the Chaos Lord issued the order, the pleasure engines on the flesh and blood wall slowly started, aiming at the Gray Knights' position several kilometers away.

Seconds later, artillery fire mixed with twisted flesh and blood rained down on the Gray Knights' positions amidst screams.

The shells were alive, covered in twisted tentacles, sharp teeth and claws, and their bellies were filled with explosive, foul liquid.

Once they erupt, they can cover an area of ​​hundreds of meters, causing massive damage.

Some special shells can even unleash sonic attacks.

The living projectiles fired from these Chaos Engines quickly covered the Gray Knights' positions.

However, the artillery fire failed to destroy the mechanical equipment; instead, it was temporarily blocked by the Grey Knight's silver psionic shield.

"In darkness dwells Ikith, within the soul fire; darkness cannot prevail, corruption cannot penetrate."

In the name of purity, I am your shield!

The curator of the Grey Knights' think tank led the think tank members in chanting incantations, and together they constructed a powerful and sturdy psionic dome.

Although all Grey Knights are psionicists, these think tanks have a deeper understanding of the warp and possess more occult knowledge than other Brotherhood warriors.

The psychic powers they possess far surpass those of the think tanks of other warbands.

After all, the sanctuary on Titan contains the incantations and spells for every type of warp energy known to the Empire.

This includes some knowledge that is prohibited from use.

The semi-circular shield covered the airspace above the position to block the effects of ranged attacks or dangerous environments.

The chaotic firepower was either deflected by the power of nothingness or incinerated by the electric arcs after it struck the psionic shield.

More screams followed.

However, while the Psionic Dome Shield can withstand ranged attacks, corrosion, and even maintain its internal purity, it cannot stop melee attacks or other incoming life forms.

Many shells, even after landing, continued to scream as they rushed towards this side.

Fortunately, the live projectiles were quickly stopped by the combined firepower of the Grey Knights, preventing them from penetrating the position and threatening the subspace machinery within the structure.

"What exactly are they trying to do?" The sadistic duke felt a growing unease.

He used the eyes on his twisted tentacles to observe the situation on the Gray Knights' position, and rows of ears grew out from the sides of his eyes.

In order to capture more information.

The more the Grey Knights valued that machine, the more it proved its importance and threat.

It's impossible for the Empire's demon hunters to travel thousands of miles just to assemble such a small gadget.

Perhaps they are trying to send a signal for help?
But this is the Chaos Realm, so how many uncorrupted human troops can the Empire send?
The sadistic duke pondered.

In his field of vision, the large psionic shield erected by the Grey Knights was teetering on the brink of collapse under the bombardment, with cracks spreading one after another.

Even with powerful psionicists among them, the Chaos Engine's firepower was still too intense.

In reality, this is still due to the Infernal Fortress's insufficient long-range firepower.

Pleasure-seekers prefer building instruments of torture to large engines of firepower.

"Perhaps I should recruit a group of Chaos Blacksmiths from the Blood God's Realm to build more heavy Chaos Engine firepower."

The sadistic duke thought to himself, "Never before has a large army of humans or demons come here."

The few conflicts he did have were mostly ground-based killings and charges; his demons preferred to torture and execute enemies with swords.

This resulted in the number and power of the Blood Wall's remote chaos engines being insufficient.

The Grey Knight's sudden attack alerted him.

After dealing with the human invaders, the Chaos Lord decided to further strengthen the defenses and firepower of the flesh and blood walls.

"With a maximum of two rounds of attacks, the Grey Knights' psionic shields will collapse, and their positions will be destroyed under the artillery fire!"

The sadistic duke observed the situation on the battlefield and concluded that the human troops wouldn't last much longer.

Moreover, that special human machine did not exude much of a threatening aura and was not an offensive weapon.

It is merely a signal transmitting device, not a forbidden weapon.

More importantly, he could smell a strong stench of decay; other chaotic beings were on their way.

In this situation, even if the Grey Knights send signals and summon reinforcements, they will find it difficult to withstand the combined onslaught of the Chaos Demon army.

Based on this information, the victory in this war was already a matter of chance, and there were no surprises whatsoever.

"Grey Knights, there's no point in you building that pathetic machine."

You are destined to fail and become the subject of my tortures…

After gathering relevant intelligence, the sadistic duke became increasingly smug.

He constantly used sound waves and whispered murmurs to harass and mock the Grey Knights.

"Demon, your clamor cannot change the coming judgment. His Majesty the Savior will unleash thunderous wrath upon any entity that violates the Empire's territory!"

Koven finally responded to the Chaos Lord, his voice so firm.

Upon hearing this, the sadistic duke's pupils suddenly contracted.

He had clearly heard of the savior, the demon eater, who had ruthlessly killed many Chaos Demons.

However, such threatening words were not enough to frighten him.

The sadistic duke laughed heartily and projected images of a jungle of human bodies and some of his tortures of the Space Marines onto the Grey Knights.

“Look at how many humans have wailed under my instruments of torture, but what has been the result?”

The great sadistic lord is still alive and well, standing right before you.

The sadistic duke said sarcastically, "Could it be that the savior deliberately sent you here to die?"
"Perhaps after I've tortured you all, I'll send that guy a video of you groaning in agony."

If the savior were right beneath the city walls, perhaps the sadistic duke would be afraid or run away.

But that being is not here; it exists in the Milky Way.

Although the savior was powerful, the Chaos Gods were even more terrifying. He trusted the so-called emperor of mankind and dared not set foot in the realm of Chaos himself.

Because once that savior steps into the realm of chaos, he will inevitably be hunted down by the gods of chaos.

Thus, he fell.

“He wouldn’t dare come here. Even if he did, I would already be under the protection of the Chaos Gods.”

The sadistic duke thought so.

This is why he dared to provoke the savior and send him images of himself torturing human warriors.

By the time that being arrives, I will have already fled to the realm of the Chaos Gods, seeking the protection of the Demon. "No, you will soon witness the existence of His Majesty the Savior and his thunderous wrath."

"Kevin said meaningfully."

He looked at the complex subspace machine that had stretched to four or five meters high and was quite moved.

The mechanical creations before us are the truly terrifying weapons!
Several years ago, His Majesty the Savior began to fund the Grey Knights, hoping that these demon hunters could better combat the Chaos Realm.

He hoped the Grey Knights could provide a complete combat plan to strike the Chaos Realm.

Then the Grey Knights submitted several battle plans, all of which were rejected by the Savior.

The reason given by that being was insufficient firepower.

Finally, the Grey Knight gritted his teeth and boldly presented a plan for large-scale armament.

That was the maximum firepower they envisioned for fighting in the chaotic realm of the subspace.

The plan involves large vehicles and heavy artillery; it's practically a legion-level combat mode.

Anyway, if the Savior dares to give it, the Grey Knights dare to take it!

However, the battle plan that the Grey Knights considered radical was once again rejected by the Savior.

The reason remains the same: insufficient firepower!
Cowen can still clearly recall the scene; it was in a conference hall.

The senior mentors looked at each other and whispered among themselves, somewhat incredulous.

His Majesty the Savior shook his head, seemingly somewhat disappointed.

He said this:

"Gentlemen, this is not how you fight a war. Your Grey Knights still lack imagination."

The savior pointed to the image of the document in mid-air and emphasized:
"With such limited firepower, how can we fight a war?"

If the Chaos Demons saw this, they would think our empire lacks firepower and is unable to fight.

How can we possibly deter them?!

He tapped twice, then tapped the table with a slap:

"The Grey Knights are too conservative. Let's leave this to the Military Affairs Department; they'll devise a comprehensive battle plan..."

After several years, the military affairs department finally designed the relevant plan and had the equipment department cast specialized subspace equipment.

This allows the Grey Knights to maintain mobility while also possessing terrifying firepower.

It's sizzling!

The four- or five-meter-tall subspace machine suddenly erupted with intense psionic arcs.

Then, a beam of light shot into the murky sky and disappeared.

Zizzi~
As Koven watched the subspace machine start up smoothly, his eyes filled with even greater anticipation.

After that, the sound array's communication channel was successfully connected, with a faint static noise coming through.

Koven took a deep breath and said to the sonic array facility, "Savior above, coordinates have been sent. The Seventh Brotherhood of the Grey Knights requests cross-dimensional long-range firepower!"

As he spoke, he entered a series of complex verification commands, including mysterious spells, onto the mechanical screen of the arm armor.

To verify their identity.

After successful identity verification, Koven entered the required firepower strike type command.

Right, up, down, down, right!
That's almost one of the most advanced types of cross-dimensional firepower strikes.

After completing all this, Koven looked at the mechanical screen on his arm armor.

The message displayed above indicates that the command has been approved and the attack has been launched.

At that moment, Koven and the Grey Knights held their breath, staring at the subspace machine.

They eagerly awaited the attack, and for a moment the entire position fell silent.

boom!
The subspace machinery erupted once more, projecting a dazzling golden light, followed by a deep, sacred, and imposing savior's hymn.

Accompanied by sacred music, a massive virtual image of the savior, clad in golden armor, appeared in mid-air.

That was a virtual projection of subspace mechanical manufacturing.

In fact, at least half of the mechanical facilities of this subspace machine are used to play sacred music and create large-scale projections.

It can be described as a redundant design.

But the technical priests of the equipment department claimed that it was a necessary design, one of the most important modules of the subspace device, capable of giving the enemy a sufficient deterrent.

The deep, sacred music resonated, and the enormous phantom of the savior was so oppressive.

He gazed at the Infernal Fortress with an imposing air, then pointed towards it, as if foreshadowing the arrival of thunderous fury.

As the virtual projection of the savior pointed, a giant vortex began to appear above the Purgatory Fortress.

The attack is coming!

"Lord of Pleasure..."

On the walls of flesh and blood.

The sadistic duke stared at the enormous phantom of the savior, his pupils constricting and his body stiffening.

He never expected the image of a savior to suddenly appear and to be directed at him in such an oppressive manner.

More importantly, he had sensed a deadly threat, as if some terrifying attack was about to strike.

Not only this Chaos Lord, but other Chaos Demons also fell into fear under the shadow of the Savior's phantom.

They were aware of the danger, but they had no idea what fate awaited them.

The Chaos Demons didn't even know where the attack came from or how to defend themselves.

They were helpless and unable to do anything.

The mere appearance of that savior brought with it an aura of destruction; how terrifying was that?
???

The sadistic duke slowly raised his head and saw a huge vortex in mid-air, with something poking in from the other side of the curtain!

The next moment, he saw the gleaming warhead.

The missile was nearly a kilometer long, covered with sacred runes and gleaming emblems of a savior, exuding an aura of death.

It slowly pierced into the warp, hanging above the heads of the chaos demons.

The distance was so close, the missile was practically touching their face.

Gan!
The Savior has unleashed a weapon of destruction into the skies above Infernal Fortress! Who attacks like that?!
The new Empire's equipment department has incorporated warp engines, psionic spells, and alien technology into its latest Hellfire missiles.

This would allow Hellfire missiles to break through the veil like ships and reach their designated locations in subspace.

The sadistic duke stared at the terrifying, almost warship-sized hell missile and was instantly terrified.

He had only one thought in his mind:
"escape!"

Without the slightest hesitation, the sadistic duke activated all his tentacles and fled the fortress at top speed.

The other Chaos Demons did the same, fleeing in all directions amidst screams.

But it was too late.

whoosh-

The hellish missile was activated in an instant, hurtling towards the Infernal Fortress at near-light speed, causing the fel energy veil to shatter under the terrifying force.

Immediately afterwards, it struck the infernal fortress, erupting in crimson flames; terrifying fire and shockwaves engulfed everything.

Everything is collapsing and being destroyed.

Boom! ! !

A reddish-yellow mushroom cloud rose, and the shock wave spread.

"For the savior!"

Koven and the Grey Knights lit their spears, bowed deeply, and their cloaks fluttered in the strong winds generated by the shockwave.

Such loyalty!
At the same time, the chaotic beings who had arrived from the subspace also witnessed all of this and fell silent instantly.
