Warhammer 40 Spring: Loyalty of the Multiverse

Chapter 101 Hodr, the God of Darkness

This feeling is so frustrating!
The Emperor became his system, and specifically targeted his ability to read minds!

It feels numb!

This is really messing with people's mentality!

Looking at the panel in front of him, he simply waved his hand in refusal. The Emperor didn't say anything more. With a wave of his hand, he took all the panels back. The panel floated in front of him and said, "You're right. Finding a powerful universe to anchor ourselves in might actually be more useful for us in the future!"

"Report! Enemy interceptor fleet detected 1 kilometers ahead."

Combat barges used for planetary penetration have detection ranges ranging from 1 to 5 light-years, depending on the detectors they carry.

Now that there is no interference from subspace, the probe's capabilities have been further enhanced.

Upon hearing the news, Tie Hui was momentarily puzzled. "How could we be discovered so far away?"

At the same time, he was also extremely surprised that the existence of the Imperial fleet could be detected by the detection equipment of a Type I civilization.

Isn't that a bit outrageous?

The Emperor explained to him, “This is quite normal. Although your body is countless times stronger than that of an ordinary human, allowing you to see some things within the galaxy, don’t underestimate the space telescopes that humans have created! Our fleet suddenly appeared at such close range, along with such a large sphere of light. I’m afraid even an ordinary person could vaguely see the changes here with the naked eye.”

"Fine!"

……

"The demi-human fleet at Dock 4 in the border area has been activated!" Mike, the black man with an afro in the fleet command center, shouted in shock to Shak behind him.

Behind him, Shak took two steps forward and gave the order: "What is the First Fleet doing? How come they can't even stop the demi-human fleet? Immediately request the Third Fleet to cover our vanguard fleet. We absolutely cannot let the demi-human fleet block our attack route!"

"Yes!"

Then Shak asked, "How is Rui? Can we get in touch with him?"

Other technical staff were frantically typing away at their keyboards, trying to keep track of Rui's situation.

"Communications have been completely cut off! There's no way to find out what's going on there!"

call--

Shak stared intently at the holographic screen, took a deep breath, and began to pray in his heart that Ray Edas would succeed.

Because now it's a do-or-die situation, success or failure hinges on this!
Ding-dong-

Just then, a message notification sounded. Shak raised his left arm, and the communication device on his wrist displayed a holographic screen.

An email was sent, instructing the Allied Second Fleet to be deployed below Asgard to prevent the defeated Asgardians from escaping. It also ordered Shak's vanguard fleet to launch an attack immediately!
Upon seeing this, Shak's face instantly darkened. Although the Allied Forces were ostensibly an independent armed force, and also had an unknown leader who had never appeared before.

However, the true situation within the Allied Forces is that they are an armed force formed by various human factions on the planet Yuanxing to resist the rule of the Asars.

Despite having enormous financial resources and support, the coalition is also riddled with factions. There are forces seeking peace, and others coveting Assassin technology.

The various parties have different goals and needs, and their interests conflict with each other. Normally, these conflicts might be buried deep in the shadows, but now that a great opportunity is at hand, all kinds of conflicts are laid bare, and there's no need to pretend anymore.

"Damn it, what are they trying to do?"

Shak's Vanguard Fleet was the Fifth Fleet of the Allied Forces, and most of its members were people who had gathered together for the sake of postwar peace.

They were genuinely concerned for peace, but this also resulted in the lack of support from financial groups for their weapons and equipment.

No one could back them up, and now, it had escalated into a near-unanimous vote at the pre-war joint meeting to appoint them as the vanguard fleet to attack the demi-human space city of Asgard. The reason given was simple: their Fifth Fleet personnel were the first to make contact with Ray Edas. The two sides had already had considerable time to work together, and their cooperation would be incredibly seamless!

Furthermore, lacking any powerful backing, the meeting passed the resolution almost unanimously. They were forced to serve as the vanguard fleet.

Xia Ke's angry shout startled everyone in the command room, causing them to turn and look at him.

Luo Zu and Tang Xin, who were sitting to the side, also turned their heads to look when they heard the noise.

"What happened?" Luo Zu was the first to stand up and walk to Xia Ke's side. This operation was a do-or-die situation; if anything else went wrong, all of humanity would be completely finished.

"Sigh—" Xia Ke sighed and sent the email to Luo Zu. Upon receiving and opening the email, even Luo Zu, known for his good temper and composure, had his pupils shrink sharply and cursed, "These bastards!"

……

Asgard - Shield Control Room
Rui was somewhat panicked; he couldn't open his shield. And with the arrival of the mining tower's mineral transport ship in Asgard, everything seemed strange.

Inside Assa's mineral warehouse, workers are busily loading and unloading mineral containers onto other transport ships.

Along his way, he encountered workers everywhere carrying boxes and supplies, hurrying towards the docking port for the ships.

It felt like they were about to evacuate!
“Ray Edas—” A surprised yet slightly delighted voice rang out not far behind him.

"who!"

Rui Meng turned around and assumed a defensive stance. Badr activated his weapon, and two nanoblades popped out from his arms.

In the distance, a young man with slicked-back black hair stood there, staring curiously at Ray Edas, who was on guard.

"Oh, let me introduce myself!" The dark-haired young man said, pulling out a remote control from somewhere. "My name is Joel Edward."

He pressed the remote control in his hand with his thumb, and immediately the data on the shield controller changed.

At that moment, Xia Ke and his team also noticed this change in their command center.

"The shield is continuously decreasing; it's not a periodic disturbance!"

"The shield has been breached!"

Shak immediately waved his hand and opened the public communication channel: "Everyone, get ready in five minutes and begin the operation!"

"Yes!"

The massive warships of the Vanguard Fleet began to move towards Asgard, their massive engine nozzles slowly emitting blue light.

Asgard - Shield Control Room
“I’m a nanotech soldier, just like you. Except I was cultivated in a secret branch of the Hwag organization. You might not recognize me!” Black electricity began to slowly flow around Joel, illuminating his body. But his voice still rang out, “You should know Mendes Edward…”

Rui was shocked: "The person in charge of the collection tower!"

The light on Joel suddenly shone brightly, then vanished abruptly, and a black nanotech mech with a streamlined body, resembling a metal sculpture, appeared on the spot.

"Hodr! Nanoparticle Vanguard - Cultivation Type. You and I are both Cultivation Type Nanoparticle Vanguards. They all say that you, Badr, are the so-called God of Light, who will lead the Yuanxing civilization to continue. But I don't believe it. I'd like to know..." As he spoke, he spread his right hand into a claw shape. Black lightning instantly burst forth, followed by a powerful push with both feet.

The matte black metal sculpture-like body emitted fine, deep black light the moment he took off, and this black light filled the surrounding space with thick, dark fog in just a moment.
