Warhammer: Hail to the Void Lords!.

Chapter 602 06.0601: "Key Target"

The intense and hostile stare-in between the two sides, felt through the helmets, ended when a pulse beam hit the shoulder armor of a shark and ricocheted.

Everyone turned their attention to the alien who fired the shot.

It turns out that the best way to mediate a conflict is to make both parties realize that the conflict between them is not the main conflict at the moment.

But if that identity is the "other party to the main contradiction", it will cause big trouble.

"Come on! Sharks! Let those honorless lackeys see who the real warrior is!" A shark centurion said to his fighting brothers in an aggressive tone, and the chainsaw axe in his hand was grabbed by the huge iron hand as a one-handed axe.

"Destroy the aliens! Don't fall behind the killing machines without empathy!" Captain Gray Claw raised his chainsaw sword and pointed it at the Tau warriors who were raising their guns.

Amid the roar of chain saws and the panicked sound of pulse shooting, the bloody massacre began. With malicious competitive intent, the monks brandished their weapons and rushed towards the enemy, blood splattering in the universe. Life seemed so fragile at this moment.

After launching a wave of boarding pods, the Nicol of the Sharknado and the Vicious Claw of the Ash Claw pounced on the remaining ships of the Tau Empire fleet like two swift beasts.

Relying on its magnificent hull, the Nicol directly rammed a cruiser that tried to stop it, and the deafening sound of metal collision echoed again.

Its side is equipped with a magnetic hook, which has long been lost in the Empire, and can firmly pull the captured target.

After grabbing the next victim and dragging him to the docking station, boarding hooks and cables were greedily launched, and more Sharknado Space Marines in power armor poured into the enemy ship like a tide.

The Vicious Claw took advantage of its speed, shuttling back and forth on the flanks of the Tau Empire fleet, constantly searching for the enemy's weak points.

Once it finds an opportunity, it will quickly approach and release the boarding troops on board.

In a very short time, this void was filled with pulse beams and the flames of exploding shells, and the sounds of shouting and killing and metal collisions were intertwined.

The entire area turned into a huge battlefield, filled with the atmosphere of death and destruction.

Far away on the Epic, Horatio stared at the green dots of light on the hologram that represented friendly forces - the symbols of the two chapters were rampaging through the enemy group.

The plan went as he expected, and the unexpected events he was worried about had not occurred yet.

A satisfied smile appeared on the young lieutenant colonel's face.

"Switch to wire-control mode, launch all torpedoes!" Horatio swung his arm down like a sword.

His voice was firm and powerful, full of confidence in victory.

Under the order of the King of the Epic, the Epic's second batch of torpedoes roared towards the Tau Empire fleet like a group of angry steel beasts.

The reason for adopting the wire control mode is to prevent the torpedo from accidentally injuring friendly forces according to the search logic of "looking for high-value (tonnage) targets".

On the bridge of a Tau Empire Envoy-class light cruiser, the captain was frantically directing his crew to fight back.

His face was covered in sweat and there was a hint of confusion in his eyes.

However, he still did not give up and continued to issue orders, trying to organize an effective defense.

"Quick, activate the point defense system! Don't let the torpedoes get close!" Kan Feng's voice became sharp due to tension and anger.

With fear and anxiety, he could only watch the torpedo getting closer and closer, followed by the intercepting fire line that was chasing closely.

However, it was too late.

laugh--!
?

The Tau captain slowly turned his head, his face raised, and his pupils suddenly contracted.

His eyes were filled with numbness and despair, as if he had seen the coming of death.

At that moment, his heart was instinctively filled with nostalgia for life and deep resistance to death.

hum! ! !
beep!beep!beep!
Inside the bridge of the Tau warship, lights flickered and ear-piercing alarms blared.

As heavy footsteps came from behind, the sound seemed like drumbeats from hell, and every beat struck the heart of the Tau captain.

The terrifying group of silver-armored warriors had already broken through the outer defense line and rushed into the bridge like an unstoppable torrent of steel. "The Emperor's wrath will burn here!" The Shark Captain, wearing Centurion armor and dyed blue with cobalt blue blood, roared, his eyes seemed to be burning with flames, revealing endless anger and murderous intent.

One of the two chain saw axes held in both hands drew a dazzling arc in the air. The arc carried the breath of death and directly cut a titanium fire warrior who was blocking the way into two pieces.

The toothed blades spun at high speed, crushing the fire warrior's upper limbs into pieces. Minced meat and blood splattered everywhere, and it flew out in a horrifying arc in the air, dragging along the sticky cobalt blue intestines.

"Die! Alien!!!"

The armored giants brandished their weapons and shouted in battle.

The next moment, the bridge was instantly engulfed in chaos.

The shouts of the sharks and the clash of weapons intertwined together, and blood splattered all over the consoles and dashboards, turning the originally tidy bridge into a bloody slaughterhouse.

The battleship suddenly lost control, and the efficiency of intercepting torpedoes dropped sharply as the battle and chaos broke out on the ship.

The weapon systems that were originally used to defend against torpedoes had their efficiency greatly reduced due to the chaos at the moment, and the attention of the Tau people who were commanding and operating the weapon stations had to be attracted by the boarding battle in front of them.

Torpedoes flew through the air, unleashing a storm of destruction on the Tau fleet.

Violent explosions broke out one after another, and the light of the nuclear fireball added a new color to the chaotic scene.

A small frigate that was rushing towards the Epic was hit directly by a torpedo, and its hull was cut in half. Blazing energy gushed out from the fracture, as if a small sun exploded in the universe, instantly dyeing the surrounding space a dazzling orange-red.

The light illuminated the surrounding warships and the terrified faces of the Tau crews.

"Well done, keep up the firepower."

Horatio's eyes were fixed on the battle in front of him, and his hands were slightly clenched into fists.

His voice was particularly loud in the noisy bridge, inspiring the officers and soldiers to continue to operate the weapon systems firmly and sow the seeds of death to the enemy.

While boosting morale, Horatio's azure eyes carefully captured the particles of light and shadow flashing in the chaos, and his Adam's apple rolled under the neck armor engraved with scriptures.

His eyes revealed a kind of concentration and vigilance, as if he was looking for something.

Horatio's target is Red October.

All the chaos is to allow Epic to grasp this core goal.

He knew very well that only by destroying or capturing Red October and keeping the intelligence in his hands or destroying it would he be completely victorious in the battle.

Otherwise, once the important top-secret intelligence was taken away, it would be meaningless no matter how many Tau warships were destroyed.

On the other side, on the E-110 "Red October", the first officer who was acting as the captain tried to organize a defense in a panic.

His forehead was covered in sweat and his eyes revealed tension and anxiety.

"Concentrate all firepower on the front and don't let them break through our defense line!" he shouted, his voice trembling with nervousness.

Although he was not sure at all, he had no choice but to go ahead with it.

However, due to the lack of professional command experience, the battleships' counterattack appeared disorganized.

The operation of the weapon system was disorganized, and the shooting angle and timing were poorly controlled. To the battleship-level Void Whale, she only had a light macro cannon on her spine, and in this situation, the threat she posed was almost negligible.

At such a distance, the traitor did not dare to use the torpedoes on the ship - there was a high probability that this would hit his Tau allies and cause more serious problems.

[This is a good opportunity to board the ship.] Horatio looked at the situation on the battlefield and made some calculations in his mind.

He exuded seemingly unlimited calmness and decisiveness at every moment, as if he was thinking about his next move.

"It's time to deal them a fatal blow. Louise, go get the Hell's Vanguards to assemble. We are going to launch a lightning strike and board the Red October, seize the intelligence, and make these traitors pay the price they deserve!"
