Warhammer 40 Unorthodox Primarch

Chapter 83 Rescue Nocturne

Nocturne

The environment of Nocturne is a lava hell, with lava lakes and active volcanoes everywhere. At the same time, the gravitational influence of the surrounding celestial bodies on Nocturne is terrifying. The people who can live on this planet are extraordinary!

Moreover, the Vulcan gene seed has the highest resistance to fire and high temperatures, and Nocturne is the holy ground for the Salamander Chapter's trials, where a large number of Chaos Space Marines have now descended.

The Word Bearers and the Midnight Lords appeared on Nocturne. They clashed with a group of Salamander recruits. The Salamander recruits fought and retreated, while also sending out distress signals. They led a small number of Nocturne people to hide on a piece of land surrounded by a lava ocean.

Despite the Chaos Chapter's sharp attacks, these fire lizard warriors withstood them. They carried a considerable number of weapons, many of which were extra gifts from the Guardians of the People, like children sent away from home. They always had one or two powerful items on them, which was what allowed them to hold on and persevere.

"Holy crap! What kind of property management? Does such a thing even exist in this world? Did they drink fake alcohol?" Lin Dafa jumped up and said.

"It's the Midnight Lord! You idiot! He's the offspring of Primarch Conrad Coz! Known for his ruthlessness and cruelty, he's also skilled at infiltration and assassination, and he's a mortal enemy of the Salamanders. Conrad Coz once captured Vulcan and tortured and killed him using every means possible. However, the immortals can resurrect infinitely, and he was eventually wounded by the Dawnbringer. Vulcan's whereabouts are unknown, but I suspect he's hiding. The Word Bearer is involved with them, which is like two pussies mixing their juices together, it's disgusting..." Li Taiji said.

"Then just fly over there and take him down! The Whisperers? Trash!" Lin Dafa said.

"No! You're wrong! The Word Bearers aren't trash. If they use their methods, they're very powerful and can create a massive wave of attacks. They can bewitch people, and sometimes the most difficult decision is whether to kill or not. They want to bewitch the Nocturne Star People and force us to make this difficult choice..." Qin Dahai said.

"The sea is right! If anyone doesn't want the Salamanders to recover, it's the Midnight Lord. Since things have come to this, the Blood Raven Legion and the Salamander Legion will each send half of their members to meet this Midnight Lord with me! And the Whisperers too!" Li Taiji said.

"Yes, Primarch..." the person in the hall said, bowing.

Li Taiji spared no effort to leave the People's Eternal Ship behind to guard the home base and to leave enough strength in the core sphere of influence. Only by protecting the old base could he have everything; otherwise, no matter how much he swaggered, he would have no foundation.

The name of the Saintess has been changed to "The Wrath of the People." There was already debate about what to name it, but with this news, it's simply "The Wrath of the People"...

This warship lives up to its name, possessing formidable firepower and a massive light spear at its bow! This is far superior to any weapon currently produced; Ironforge even specializes in researching such weapons, and this one is a remarkably well-preserved artifact from the Great Expedition era.

The Wrath of the People left Alleria and began its leap, reappearing on Mandeville, Nocturne.

Meanwhile, Nocturne was still being attacked and bombed by a fleet, including the Three Saints' Hymn, an important warship of the Word Bearers and a sister ship of the People's Wrath! However, the modified People's Wrath had even more ferocious firepower, with its macro cannons firing at a much faster rate.

Why is something as ancient as the macro cannon still around? Aren't large-scale light-energy weapons like the light spear more powerful and shouldn't they be more widely used?

Actually, this is related to the warship's shield. The light spear can be blocked by the void shield, while the relatively slow macro cannon has a better ability to penetrate the shield and overload the void shield!

Once the Void Shield is lost, the macro cannon can easily tear through the outer armor of a warship. Space warfare is essentially about the capabilities of the Void Shield. This type of battle is also the bloodiest because there is little room for maneuver. If you win, you wipe out everything; if you lose, you are instantly vaporized...

That's why sometimes they hysterically board ships, either to seize the opponent's warships or to prevent them from launching a rapid attack, thus easing the overload pressure on their own Void Shield.

The Void Shield essentially throws attacks into the warp, like a trash can; the correct approach is to do everything possible to prevent that trash can from filling up...

Therefore, the complexity and danger of the warp are self-evident; a warp creature could be bombarded simply by walking by.

This is quite normal...

"Bombard him! First, hit the Three Saints' Hymn! Cripple him!" Li Taiji ordered.

"Yes, Primarch!" This young naval captain was an Aurelian, a specially promoted talent who had stood out from numerous examinations. He was the pride of his homeland, and his loyalty bordered on fanaticism.

"Give me a fierce attack with the main light spears and cannons! Then smash the macro cannons to pieces! As long as we cripple the Three Saints' Hymn, the rest are trash!" Li Taiji said.

"Yes! No! Dad! Let's board them and take over! Maybe we'll steal another ship!" Lin Dafa said.

"Hmm! Congratulations! Tzeentch probably thinks the same way! Right now, it's best to proceed step by step. Saving people is the key! There will be plenty of warships later! We can build better ones slowly..." Li Taiji said.

"Ah! What a pity!" Lin Dafu lamented as if he had lost a warship, as if he could have easily taken it over...

At this moment, the largest spear of the People's Wrath completed its charge, and an exceptionally thick beam of light shot towards the Trinity Hymn. Instantly, the Void Shield was raised, but it was rippled by the spear.

The remaining light spears also fired, and the attack frequency was much faster than that of ordinary warships because the level of automation was much higher.

Then the cannons fired, followed by a massive barrage of torpedoes, which rained down everywhere...

Finally, the Void Shield of the Three Saints' Hymn overloaded, and just before the second wave of attacks arrived, the ship found an opening and jumped away...

It seems they were fully prepared...

"Damn it! It ran away... I almost threw out my back! I'm speechless..." Lin Dafu said in exasperation.

The remaining warships and the supporting battleships were utterly slaughtered in combat, but these warships were merely cannon fodder; they were only there to facilitate the Midnight Lord's landing...

Fireballs exploded in space, and the wreckage of the warship plummeted toward Nocturne...

"Everyone prepare for the landing operation! Warships, be on alert..." After giving these instructions, Li Taiji walked towards the landing craft.

"Yes, Primarch! I will protect you above me..." The young captain said proudly.

"Hehehe, this is our sky! Glory also belongs to the Navy, the guardians of the people!" After saying that, the landing craft's hatch closed, leaving only the young man excitedly watching the guardians of the people launch their attack.

A large number of landing craft descended from the sky, and the Chaos forces on the ground numbered quite a few. Many heavy weapons were attacking the Salamander's defenses, and many soldiers had already been killed or wounded. These were all young recruits, who were not yet fully-fledged Astartes, but these men and the veteran Salamander soldiers held on.

"Reinforcements are here! Hold on! Salamanders, launch a counterattack..." a veteran shouted, but just as he jumped up, he was hit by a bomb. The bomb began to corrode his body, as if he had been splashed with sulfuric acid, and his body and armor were melting.
