Warhammer: Angron Training Manual

Chapter 564 Timely Rain

Eleventh, the Seventh Legion fleet joined the void war, and the situation quickly reversed.

The 11th Legion's flagship, the 11th Legion's Flagship, came near the Endurance from the rear.

The Emperor's Pride was still engaging the Endurance, but it was just two Emperor's Pride against one Endurance.

If the think tank on the White Knight had not been able to use psychic barriers to resist the bombardment from time to time, the void shield of the Endurance would have been overloaded and paralyzed, and the huge ship would have been at the mercy of others.

As they advanced, the XI Legion flagship launched fire at the Emperor's Pride, and the face of XI appeared on the Endurance's communication panel.

"Dorn and I are here," said Eleven.

Mortarion was extremely disgusted with his brother, Number Eleven. Every time he saw this brother and cast a disgusted look at him, Mortarion never thought that one day in the future he would see Number Eleven's face and feel happy from the bottom of his heart.

Dorn's face also appeared on the communication panel: "Let No. 11 command the battle now."

Mortarion accepted it readily, knowing full well that he was not the one who was good at fighting in the void.

No. 11 took over the command, and the various strategic plans he formulated were immediately distributed to each ship.

Next, the officer teams of all warships will fight according to Plan No. 11, step by step and cautiously.

The White Knight gradually moved away from the port side of the Endurance and moved forward as the vanguard. Behind it was the 11th Legion Breakthrough Fleet following the White Knight. This fleet, which was dedicated to serving as the spearhead to open up the situation in the void war, would assist the White Knight in the assault.

Its mission is to use psychic advantages to break through the fleet lines of the Emperor's Children Legion.

Flagship No. 11 accelerated to the starboard side of Endurance, with the two Glorious Queen-class ships moving side by side.

Mortarion's eyes were fixed on the two Pride of the Emperor ahead.

He didn't know why there were two Pride of the Emperor. He just wanted to destroy them, win the void war, annihilate the Emperor's Children, and put an end to the rebellion war on the northern border of the Empire.

"Brother." Number Eleven suddenly spoke up, "We should do something to survive, right?"

"Don't talk about those animal laws first, fight first." Mortarion pointed forward, "Destroy the Pride of the Emperor!"

Number Eleven was silent for a second, nodded, and cut off the communication.

All weapons on the port side of the 11th Legion's flagship were raised and aimed at the Endurance.

Fire.

……

"Let the ship move forward at half speed, don't rush towards death stupidly."

"With so many warships in the 11th Legion, why should we be the spearhead?"

"The World Eaters Librarian Fleet is not cannon fodder!"

The command deck of the White Knight.

The captain reprimanded all the officers on the command deck, who had just gotten carried away and ordered the ship to advance at full speed.

But the captain has his own considerations.

Whether in the largest void battle in the Ullanor Campaign - the "Battle of Krako", or in many subsequent battles, the captain's strategies and decisions may be changeable, but one thing is eternal.

That is the purpose of saving lives.

Hearing the captain scolding everyone for working too hard, the officers followed his orders but couldn't help but grumble in their hearts.

People say that the captain is timid in every way except his courage, but in fact he is not that courageous.

The White Knight slowed down.

After a while, the hull suddenly shook violently.

"Friendly forces are attacking us!" An officer stood up and reported a fact that he himself did not believe.

As he said, the 11th Legion's assault fleet no longer followed the White Knight, but began to disperse and surround the White Knight from both sides, while continuing to fire at the White Knight in the process.

The think tanks assisting the ships in combat used psychic barriers instead of void shields to block attacks, giving the void shields time to adjust their defensive direction.

The captain's face turned pale as he trotted to the edge of the porthole and looked out.

The 11th Legion fleet is attacking friendly forces. Both Mortarion's ships and Rogal Dorn's ships are being bombarded.

And the Endurance...

The engines of the Death Guard Legion flagship had been paralyzed by the explosion, and floating in the direction of the XI Legion flagship were a large number of ship facilities, as well as the bodies of dead Space Marines and mortal sailors.

The flagship of the 11th Legion opened fire again. Fire flickered where the Endurance was hit, and then the fire disappeared. The shattered ship facilities and personnel were sucked into the void.

It looked like a fish whose abdomen was pierced by a sharp object, and its internal organs mixed with fish roe flowed out.

Although shocked, the captain took a deep breath to calm himself, turned back to the center of the command deck, spent a minute checking the strategic information, and then issued a series of orders.

"Adjust the void shield's defense direction to 4 to 8 o'clock."

The stern of the ship, as well as the left and right sides near the stern, were glowing.

The smaller the void shield's defense area, the stronger its defense capability. If it is a directional defense, it can even intercept weapons such as boarding torpedoes that can penetrate the void shield.

"What about the left and right sides and the bow?" asked the officer in charge of the void shield after conveying the order.

The captain pulled out his pistol and aimed it at the officer: "According to the Imperial Navy regulations, I'm warning you once. If you keep talking nonsense, I'll put a bullet in your head!"

The officer remained silent.

According to the regulations, subordinates can indeed ask questions after conveying or executing orders, but whether the subordinates are asking questions or questioning depends on how their superiors decide.

There was silence on the command deck.

The captain put down his gun and thought.

Now the warships of the 11th Legion have not surrounded them yet. Although they are firing, they cannot get around the left and right sides and the bow for a while. The void shield, as a resource, is used with the highest efficiency at this time to perfectly intercept the enemy ship's firepower.

The Librarians need to take a break. Using a psychic barrier to defend against naval gunfire is not the same as using a psychic barrier to protect the army in a land battle.

Short-distance warp teleportation is the only means of escape, but no Librarian other than the Lord of the White Knights dares to use teleportation when the warp storm is raging.

The captain looked straight ahead.

There was nothing outside the porthole, and further away were the warships of the Emperor's Children, who were also rushing towards the White Knight.

The only chance to escape is just ahead... "Report! The battleship has been boarded and the Great Library has been attacked!"

The officer's report echoed throughout the command deck, but failed to interrupt the captain's thoughts.

The captain turned his head to look at the left and right windows, but the friendly forces were in a melee, and the White Knight might not be able to get support. It was more likely to be sunk during the retreat.

After thinking about it, the captain made a decision.

"call."

The captain exhaled a breath, his face looked pale and his expression was quite numb.

After taking another deep breath, the captain raised his hands and rubbed his face.

When he put his hands down, his face was still pale, but his expression became exceptionally resolute and fierce.

"All right……"

"If this is the fate of the White Knight"

The captain turned around and looked at everyone on the command deck, his voice calm, indifferent, and firm.

"Dispatch a team of engineers to overload the propulsion device and ensure that the propulsion device can receive maximum energy."

"From now on, do not engage the enemy ship in a firefight. Send all explosive objects on the ship to the bow."

The officers held their breath and concentrated without making any sound, but their chests were rising and falling.

"It is impossible for us to retreat, but the final fate of the White Knight is not necessarily to sink. Instead, there will be an outcome that is even more unacceptable than sinking."

Outside the porthole, one of the two Pride of the Emperor sailed out of the battle line and headed straight for the White Knight. It did not attack on the way and seemed to want to capture the White Knight.

"This warship is the flagship of the Lord of the White Knights. It represents the World Eaters, the Think Tank, salvation, authority, and many other things... But it will never fall into the hands of the enemy, and it will never represent the shame that the World Eaters and the White Knights Think Tank can never wash away in the future."

The officers delivered their orders in silence.

The White Knight was operating as the captain ordered.

"For the World Eaters, for Angron."

"For the Lord of the White Knights!"

The White Knight was at full speed ahead.

The captain turned and faced the bow.

The deck gate opened, a few shouts were heard, and a large group of people who were obviously not naval combat personnel rushed into the command deck.

Those are the officers' families.

The captain's wife, wearing power armor, holding Osiris in one hand and a sword dripping with blood in the other, walked into the command deck at the end of the crowd.

Her brother, who was as tall and strong as a Space Marine, was the last to enter the gate.

"The enemy has boarded the ship and is near the residential area. I am bringing my family here to seek refuge." The captain's wife stepped forward.

Hearing this, the captain remained silent.

There was no place to take refuge aboard the White Knight.

When the captain's wife saw the White Knight rushing towards the Emperor's Pride at full speed, she understood everything. She didn't say anything, but just walked to her husband's side holding Osiris.

The White Knight was getting closer and closer to the Emperor's Pride.

"Guys." The captain turned around, "It's an honor to work with you."

Everyone performed the Sky Eagle Salute.

The captain turned around and looked up at his wife: "It is my honor to have met you and lived with you."

The captain's wife sheathed her sword and gently took her husband's hand: "It's my pleasure. Wilson."

The White Knight was getting closer and closer to the Emperor's Pride.

The Emperor's Pride began to turn to avoid it, but the Librarians made the same preparations as the captain. They were extremely tired after fighting so hard, but they still had the last bit of strength to quickly turn the White Knight in a direction where it could collide with the Emperor's Pride.

The two ships approached each other, and in the eyes of everyone on the command deck, the already huge Pride of the Emperor grew even larger.

When the battleships were almost colliding, the White Knight suddenly stopped.

The ship suffered collateral damage due to its extremely sudden stagnation, and the hull was slightly deformed.

The Emperor's Pride disappeared directly in front of the White Knight.

The captain paused, looking around.

The Emperor's Pride suddenly appeared on the port side, pushed by some force to slide sideways, and collided with one warship after another of the 11th Legion that were surrounding the White Knight. Even its sliding trajectory was artificially designed, just enough to slide around the White Knight.

The area around the White Knight was cleared, but the Pride of the Emperor still did not stop.

Snow fell suddenly.

The Lord of the White Knights, wearing armor and holding spears, appeared on the command deck with Watcher Kang.

Qin Xia still kept his hands raised as he walked out of the snow. The Emperor's Pride was manipulated by his psychic power and was eventually stopped by it.

Seeing that the White Knight would not face the fate of being destroyed together with the enemy, the captain shuddered and took a quick breath: "My lord..."

"The land battle is over." Qin Xia pointed out the window, "Go support the friendly warships, do what you can."

"Yes." The captain saluted with the Sky Eagle salute.

Qin Xia took Kang and disappeared into the command deck again, teleporting continuously throughout the White Knight.

He always appeared in front of the Space Marines of the 11th Legion who came to board, and he easily crushed a group of Space Marines as if he were slapping ants to death.

Until all the enemies who boarded the White Knight were cleared out.

Qin Xia was in a corridor, surrounded by panicked mortals and Space Marines lying in a pool of blood.

Looking out the porthole at the flagship of the 11th Legion and the Endurance which was still under bombardment.

The next second, he teleported away again.
