Warhammer: Angron Training Manual

Chapter 293 Killing the General
The XIII Legion's fleet began to adjust its strategy for the XII Legion's assault which had been anticipated but not so swift.

Every ship in the vast fleet began to change position at Guilliman's personal command.

The 12th Legion fleet approached rapidly and soon entered the area of ​​​​fire.

The weapons located at the bow have begun to fire at each other's warships.

The void shield of the Resolute Resolve was very strong. It was at the front and blocked most of the firepower.

This warship, custom-built for the assault corps, had been adjusted to trade off speed and defensive capabilities.

On the ground battlefield, the emphasis on defensive capabilities will cause the equipment to become heavy, which is not conducive to assault. However, on the void battlefield, only the extremely fast speed combined with the strongest void shield can allow a warship to enter the vicinity of the enemy ship instead of being shot down on the way.

But no matter how thick a flagship's void shield is, it has its limits.

Guilliman ordered all warships to focus their fire on the Resolute Resolve, whereupon its void shield quickly began to overload and eventually dissipated.

However, when the next luminous spear after the void shield was overloaded was about to fall on the armor of the Resolute, the dark purple energy that suddenly bounced out blocked the luminous spear.

More and more attacks began to be launched towards the Resolute Resolve, which had lost the protection of its void shield, but again, they were all intercepted by the sudden emergence of energy.

"How is this possible?" Guilliman stood under the porthole of the Macragge, looking at the dark purple energy rising outside.

He felt that this thing was like close-range firepower. It did not intercept in all directions like the Void Shield, but it intercepted attacks wherever they came.

This is not what the Void Shield should be able to do.

But this is actually a void shield.

An ancient void shield born in the heyday of mankind.

It uses technology that will never be possible for future generations to analyze, and has amazing effectiveness.

When such ancient creations are deployed on the battlefield, whether they are small individual weapons and equipment that the High Knights once stole, or large creations that need to be carried on warships for use, their mere appearance on the battlefield is a declaration.

Declare the glory and power that mankind once possessed.

"The Resolute is approaching!"

Guilliman heard the naval personnel's report.

He has seen it.

The warships of the 12th Legion had dispersed at this time, and began to pull the nearby warships of the 13th Legion into close combat and also began to board.

The Steadfast Resolve was heading straight for Macragge's Glory.

"Activate defense plan," Guilliman ordered.

A cruiser quickly sailed from the side of Macragge's Glory towards the Unwavering Resolve. The cruiser was carrying the First Chapter. The troops led by the First Chapter Captain Gale would never let Guilliman down.

However, the cruiser of the 1st Regiment failed to intercept the Resolute Resolve, and was intercepted by another enemy ship instead.

The Resolute Resolve began to make a sharp turn, and then a warp crack appeared in front of it. The heavy cruiser White Knight rushed out of the warp carrying ice and snow.

They made a short warp jump!
Guilliman was very surprised.

He speculated how Qin Xia in the White Knight did it... perhaps he let the battleship leap into the warp, and then used the abundant psychic energy in the warp to tear a rift leading to the real universe, and then controlled the battleship to go directly out of the rift.

It's like a short-distance, fast subspace channel within a galaxy.

The White Knight suddenly appeared, and the 1st Regiment's cruiser was unable to dodge, and the two sides collided.

The White Knight was also a cruiser, but an old heavy cruiser. Its size was certainly not as large as a battleship, but it was still the largest of all cruisers.

The battleship had once belonged to the First Legion, Guilliman remembered that, but now the battleship belonged to the Twelfth Legion.

"Lion!" Guilliman exclaimed, "How did Angron do it?!"

A flash of light appears.

The White Knight rammed through the bow of the 1st Regiment cruiser.

Two more cruisers carrying the remaining men of the 1st Regiment moved forward.

Guilliman turned to the officers and ordered, "Turn on the internal surveillance of Cruiser Twenty-One."

The internal surveillance footage immediately appeared on the screen inside the command deck.

The White Knight could not break through the blockade of the three cruisers in a short time. Qin Xia had to either choose to board the ship or be boarded by it.

Guilliman had already seen the power of the psychic think tanks, and because of this, he deployed all the think tanks in the legion in the battleships of the First Regiment.

"The enemy is boarding the ship!"

"Intercept!"

Gage is shown swinging his sword and shouting to urge the nearby mortal auxiliary troops.

The Ultramar Mortal Auxiliary Army is well-equipped, with extremely high tactical qualities and fighting spirit, just like the Nuceria Mortal Army who is not poor but does not have the blessing of high knight equipment.

These mortal auxiliaries quickly kept pace with the Space Marines.

The Space Marines also slowed down their pace, trying to let the mortals catch up as much as possible, because they were about to fight together with the mortals as they had trained countless times before.

The enemy's boarding point was in the bow area of ​​the cruiser where Gage was stationed.

The people there reported that they witnessed the enemy suddenly appearing in the battleship, and then lost contact.

Gage felt that the enemy might not necessarily come out from the bow of the ship, so he asked the think tanks to be on high alert and calculate whether the enemy would use the teleportation ability to go somewhere else again.

But the sound of gunfire that followed proved that the enemy had not teleported away at all, nor did they want to use tactics such as making a feint to the east and running around in all directions.

"Follow me!" Gage led the think tanks to the bow of the ship.

Guilliman watched all this.

The mortals aimed their heavy weapons at the entrance to the bow, while the Space Marines aimed sideways.

Gage arrived with the think tanks.

Qin Xia just happened to rush out from the entrance at this time.

The bullets that attacked him were easily intercepted by the psychic barrier, and then Qin Xia released a backhanded impact that blew away all the Space Marines and mortals in front of him. The think tanks of the Thirteenth Legion tried to start a psychic confrontation, and the White Knights of the Twelfth Legion thought the same.

The think tanks of both sides stood facing each other, and the battle was about to break out.

The psionic giant called Communion rose up, lightning and fire flew everywhere.

Qin Xia ran straight towards Gage and stabbed him with his spear.

In armed combat, Qin Xia's skills were no match for Gage, who easily blocked the spear, but the next second the spear tip released flames that instantly devoured everything within dozens of meters around Qin Xia.

"The commander of the First Regiment has died." A cold reminder sounded.

Guilliman breathed heavily.

The Gage here is just a statistic in a game. The real Gage is not dead, and he doesn’t even know that his genetic father is using him to play war games with others.

But because everything here was too real, Guilliman still felt uncomfortable.

He suddenly understood one thing.

That's why the general who originally owned this device and was addicted to the world in the game ended up staying here until he died.

This game also has a career mode, where you start from scratch all by yourself and eventually become a warlord, an emperor, and even get married and have children, and meet good brothers who will fight side by side with you in the future...

It is difficult for ordinary people not to indulge in the beautiful illusion created here.

Guilliman shook his head and turned his attention to the screen.

The Steadfast Resolve had approached Macragge's Glory and began to teleport.

But what Guilliman didn't know was that Angron did not use the void shield's teleportation function. He directly ordered the use of boarding torpedoes and other means to board the Glory of Macragge.

"Follow me." Guilliman said to the Ever-Victorious Army who were lined up in neat and silent formation on the command deck.

The Ever-Victorious Army, with a large shield in one hand and a long sword in the other, guarded the Primarch as he walked out of the command deck and headed straight for where Angron boarded the ship.

In the vast hangar studded with boarding torpedoes, the boarding and anti-boarding troops were fighting each other.

The Eighth Assault Company fought at the forefront holding chain axes, while other World Eaters ran on the left and right wings and rear of the Eighth Company, using the most direct way to tear apart the defenses deployed by the Thirteenth Legion.

The Thunder Warrior World-Eaterer named Hal was extremely powerful. No one from the Thirteenth Legion could survive in his hands until the third clash of weapons.

That strong body brought amazing explosive power, coupled with Hal's unparalleled fighting skills...

But even so, Hal still strictly abided by the combat regulations. He did not compete for credit with his companions, nor did he rush forward rashly. He stayed wherever his company was.

Angron rushed to the front and swung the chainsaw axe at the Space Marine facing him. He hesitated for a moment, but when the chainsaw axe cut the Space Marine in half, he did not feel the pain, despair, and other emotions before the other party died.

But it was still too real. The Space Marine who was cut in half lay on the ground and picked up a grenade.

This was the first time Angron had experienced such a battle without being able to sense the intense emotions of the victim before death.

"Be careful!" Yochula stepped forward, chopped off the Space Marine's head, and kicked the grenade aside.

In the explosion, Yochula's brother Yochula rushed forward, and other gladiators also gathered around Angron.

"Too real." Angron looked at the gladiators in a trance. "Every move you make makes me feel that you are real."

"What nonsense are you talking about? Aren't we real?" A look of confusion appeared on Yochuka's face under the Terminator helmet.

Angron also wanted to talk to these virtual people because he had not previously thought how real the data generated by a device could be, so he had not experienced the virtual world due to preconceived ideas.

But he didn't have time to experience it more, because Guilliman arrived with his men.

"Brother." Guilliman drew his sword, "Come and learn fighting skills from me!"

Before he finished speaking, Guilliman had already rushed to the front.

The Ever-Victorious Army followed closely behind, and the Space Marines of the XIII Legion also quickly gathered towards their Primarch.

The Ever-Victorious Army was the first to engage the invaders.

Some World Eaters were killed by them with ease.

A gladiator pushed aside the World Eater in front of him, and stood in front of the Ever-Victorious Army with other gladiators.

This battle of elite against elite began when both sides rushed towards each other at the same time.

There was no skill or strategy in this battle, it was just one-sided killing and being killed.

The numbers of the Ever-Victorious Army were dwindling rapidly, and Guilliman, rushing towards Angron, noticed that the gladiators were like precisely assembled killing machines.

But it is unlikely that this killing machine can stop the Primarch.

As Guilliman swung his sword, a gladiator was cut in half along with his Terminator armor.

Angron's heart seemed to be tightened by something. He could not feel the emotions that the gladiator had before his death, but he saw that the gladiator was dead.

"Don't go near him! Get away from him! Get away from him!"

Angron, feeling very worried, yelled at the gladiators to stay away from Guilliman, and he rushed towards Guilliman with his two axes.

The two Primarchs fought each other.

The battle between the Primarchs was like two blurred images entangled together at an incredibly fast speed. Only the flying sparks and the sound of collision could remind the onlookers that the two Primarchs had come into close combat many times in an instant.

Angron is taller than Guilliman, so he has some advantages of being on top.

Guilliman would often raise his weapon and look up at Angron to block or slash.

As the battle drew to a close, Guilliman began to ponder what techniques he could use to defeat Angron.

As a result, while he was thinking, he accidentally had his weapon chopped off by Angron, and then was hit in the throat by the double axes.

"Guilliman OUT!"

"Angron, Qin Xia, victory!"
