This Terra is a little weird.

"You mean, the enemy has enough power to knock down the Space Marines? Then I'm afraid we have to change our plan this time."

"what's the plan?"

"Ah, brother, while you are on this mission, we have decided to attack the valley that Miss Tallulah had scouted before. We have reason to believe that the mortals there are being bewitched by Chaos."

"So we are going to destroy that place? You know, the land affected by Chaos..."

"We don't know, McCarter. Perhaps this new evil god is different. I think it gives mortals the choice to believe or not. It doesn't use its power to corrupt, but the price is their souls. Perhaps we can save them all."

"You should be careful with your words, brother! Chaos cannot be cured. Once contaminated, only death can return one to purity."

"Things are different now, Brother McCarter."

"You and I come from different eras, Reverend Dral. Your consciousness became floating during that thousand-year-long era of peace."

"Your words are dangerous, McCarter. The Emperor's orders are for us to protect this world and its people. Since it is possible to rescue those people, we must try."

"It is precisely because of the Emperor's order! We must ensure that this world will not be corrupted by Chaos. Even if it means burning it to ashes, it will not be a pity!"

The quarrel between the two giants attracted the attention of many people, and Tallulah hurried over to separate the two.

Doji Zaxi walked over from outside the huge metal door, and the Space Marines made way for him. This Contemptor Fearless was their current chapter leader, a Terran veteran, and the ancestor of their Imperial Fists.

"McCarter, Draco, what are you arguing about? As battle brothers in a legion, why are you arguing like this?!"

Doji Zhaxi felt tired. It would have been easy to manage more than fifty Space Marines, but the difficulty lay in the fact that they were all battle brothers from different historical periods of the Empire.

Some, like Doji Zhaxi, are veterans of the legion during the Great Crusade, and they are the most talkative ones.

There are also some Imperial Fists Chapter Brothers from the Dark Ages. These people are the most difficult to talk to, as many of their ideas are different and they often quarrel with other battle brothers.

Veterans of the Legion like Doji Zhaxi, who were the future Space Marines of the Empire, felt sad. They had not imagined that the Empire would become like that after the Great Crusade, bloated and rotten, and that the rotten machine would have to rely on the burning of human lives to keep running.

Even though the new generation of battle-brothers known as the Primaris Space Marines brought much exciting news, the veterans of the Legion still did not feel much comfort. They understood that no matter how stronger the Space Marines became or whether Robouti Guilliman, the Primarch of the Ultramarines, returned to the Imperium, it would ultimately only inject a bit of vitality into the rotten body of the Imperium, allowing it to run a few steps and leave death a little further away.

But all this has nothing to do with them anymore. The veterans of the Legion know that when they wake up in this strange world, they no longer have any relationship with the Empire. The Emperor gave them the final guidance and granted them the power to live freely, but looking at these fighting brothers from the end of the Empire who are still obsessed with their own theories, they only feel pain in their hearts. They are afraid that these children will go to extremes.

The virtues and wisdom preached by the Imperial Truth are rarely seen in these warriors, and despite the best efforts of their ancestors to enlighten and explain, they remain stubborn.

Maybe this is the generation gap between the two.

Doji Zhaxi could only use his power to stop the two from arguing, and he expressed his expectations in detail.

These battle brothers from different periods can abandon the influence of the times and find their own peace in this world. No matter whether they are legion members or chapter monks, they can acknowledge their human identity. When the threat is eliminated, they can put down their guns and swords, stop to rest, and let their tired body and mind truly relax.

Doji Zhaxi used his own experience to enlighten the Space Marines.

"My brothers, I am now sealed in this cold steel womb. I don't know what it feels like anymore, but you can still feel the beauty of this world. Wake up. This is not the Milky Way, nor is it the Empire. Instead of wasting time arguing here, you should devote yourself to fulfilling the Emperor's instructions."

"......"

McCarter walked silently behind the other Space Marines. He thought painfully that perhaps his thoughts were really no longer suitable for the current environment.

He activated the device on his arm armor, and the painful gloves immediately brought him pain that was unbearable for ordinary people.

Tallulah put her worries to rest. The quarrels among these giants brought enormous pressure to ordinary people.

"Dear Miss Tallulah, I apologize to you, my battle brothers... They all come from different times and have different ideas. There will be a lot of trouble. As I said, it would be better to build an independent chapter center outside."

"I will put this matter on the agenda, Lord Doji Tashi. So we have to change the battle plan, right?"

"I think so. I've read Battle-Brother McCarter's report. Those White Knights may be stronger than Chaos Warriors. So perhaps everyone in our regiment will have to go on this operation. In addition, we have to drive away the Land Raiders in the warehouse as well."

"No problem. Do you have any suggestions regarding the requirements of other troops?"

Tallulah admitted that the Space Marines were more powerful than all human troops, their assault capabilities were unmatched, and mortal troops could only serve as auxiliary forces to assist in the attack.

"We need a Storm Blade tank as support, and some Basilisk self-propelled artillery for continuous artillery support. If possible, please bring the Sun Guard and more incinerators. Miss Talulah, you, Miss Mudstone, Miss W, and Miss Froststar must act together with our battle brothers. Among us, only Dral can cast psionic spells. Against those white knights, we still lack some magical advantages. Although I don't know how your Originium skills will perform against psionic effects, you should still act with us."

"no problem."

Tallulah then discussed the remaining deployment issues with the Space Marines, and as for the management of the company, it had to be handed over to Alina again.

Alina was called up with sleepy eyes, and looking at Tallulah's apologetic expression, she knew that she wanted to ask her for something.

"Well...be careful when you fight, I'll ha...keep an eye on the company."

Tallulah gave her a hug and told her to come to work today, just yesterday she had told her to take a few days off.

Alina didn't think much of it. She used to work overtime every day in the Republic and was used to it. Besides, Tallulah and the others were going to save people. The most important thing was the news about Luo Chen that Tallulah told her.

With motivation, nothing is tiring, and the dangerous work is done by Tallulah and the others, so Alina wants to take care of the rest of the things so that they can feel at ease.

Alina stood at the airport, watching more than a dozen Thunderhawks leave. She didn't know how many times she had sent everyone out to fight. She thought again, if she also had the ability to fight, she could go with them.

But I only know how to use a laser pistol.

Although she repeated it countless times, she still said: "Come back safely."

Chapter 153: Burning Canyon

The Thunderhawk gunboat gradually approached the location of the Syracuse Society of Light and stationed ten kilometers away, waiting for the arrival of other troops. Tallulah contacted the Syracuse officials, who dispatched a large number of troops, and some mafia families also participated under different names.

Catachan Security's powerful allies are the operators from Rhodes Island. When the Doctor heard that Tallulah would use synthetic jade as a reward, he immediately agreed to the deal, faster than anything else.

The most eye-catching operator was a Sarkaz with red hair. Talulah could feel the high temperature she was emitting from a long distance away. As both were masters of playing with fire, it was hard to tell who was stronger between the two.

However, both the Syracuse army and the operators of Rhodes Island were attracted by the Catachan Space Marines. These tall and strong warriors gave them a strong sense of oppression, especially when they were being stared at.

Especially Rhodes Island's operator Surtur, she was stared at the longest, and the look of the Space Marine made her feel a little creepy.

"Tsk! Doctor, can't we just not come here?"

Sulter looked at the doctor who was putting a spoon into the pudding box. The doctor took a bite of the pudding and said with his eyes wide open: "No, we are here to destroy the cult."

"Isn't it for synthesizing jade?" Surtel's eyes turned into vertical pupils, staring at the doctor so hard that he broke out in a cold sweat.

"Ahem! Operator Surtur, you have to know that we in Rhodes Island have been working hard for the rights of the infected. Now a group of cultists have appeared and are trying to suck their souls. Of course we have to step in. Of course, it would be great if we can make some extra money to subsidize Rhodes Island's finances."

The doctor raised the spoon with dignity, then picked up his kettle and put water in it to boil.

Surtel snatched the pudding box and said, "Then why don't you want Longmen coins? Do you want synthetic jade?"

"This..." The doctor trembled and took a sip of hot water: "Um, Surtel, your relatives are coming recently, right? Um... drink more hot water."

Sulter finished the pudding and looked at the hot water cup handed to him by the doctor: "Humph! I hate hearing people say to drink more hot water. It's useless. And this pudding is not as delicious as ice cream. Change it for me."

The doctor felt helpless. Where could she find ice cream?

She supported her breasts and felt her shoulders were so sore. It was an old problem and it would make her very tired after a long time.

"Ah, I'm so tired. I want to lie down."

Sulter looked at the doctor holding up her breasts and complaining. She looked at her own breasts and then at the doctor's.

Humph! I don’t even feel like eating ice cream anymore!

Although Surtur is not small, he is just like a steamed dumpling compared to the Doctor. You know, among the male operators on Rhodes Island, except those who have a partner, who doesn’t stare at the Doctor?

So cute, so gentle, and so... cough cough cough, anyway, dream, understand! ?

The doctor looked at Surtel in confusion as he walked away angrily, not knowing that her unintentional complaint had hurt someone.

Just as Tallulah was about to enter the tent, she saw Surtur coming out with his head down and a gloomy face. She thought there was a quarrel inside, and she absolutely could not let a quarrel in the middle of a battle ruin her mood.

Tallulah opened the door curtain and walked into the big tent: "Doctor, are you busy now?"

"Oh, Miss Tallulah, I'm not busy right now."

"I'm here to talk to you about the Astartes monks. Um, Rhodes Island brought quite a lot of Sarkaz this time, and they're very strong. The monks... just have some professional reactions, so they're more cautious. Please don't think too much about it, they don't mean any harm."

The doctor smiled gently, "It's okay, Miss Tallulah. Now those... monks are just looking at us with scrutiny, but in the past, everyone was hostile to Rhodes Island, an organization full of infected people. So it doesn't matter, but I have one more thing I want to ask."

"What is it?"

"Those Astartes, were they once human? They are like me, without any national characteristics."

"I don't know either, but they said they had abandoned their mortal identities and became space marines, born to fight and died to fight."

"Why are they here?"

"I freed them. They were trapped in a cube, trapped by a mysterious technology."

"Is that so? Then Luo Chen...he will be found, right?"

"I...don't know, I hope so."

The Doctor placed his hand on Tallulah’s shoulder: “You must be strong, Tallulah.”

"Ah."

The next morning, all ground troops were in place. The three behemoths, the Land Raider, the Storm Blade super heavy tank and the Shadow Sword super heavy tank, attracted all attention. In terms of visual impact, this representative of multi-rivet steam-steel warships and big guns may not have much effect from a realistic perspective, but it is indeed a kind of romance. Who can refuse the power of heavy artillery with absolute power to crush all enemies?

The Astra Militarum would not refuse. Given the Empire's incomprehensible technologies, this unscientific structure became indispensable when facing those monsters on the battlefield.

Especially when faced with chaos.

The Space Marines volunteered to serve as the spearhead of the assault force. They did not choose to attack at high speed on the Thunderhawk gunships. According to the existing intelligence, the flying speed of those White Knights was no less than that of the Thunderhawks, and their weapons could also penetrate ceramsite or adamantium.

Therefore, the best option is to choose to attack in an armored vehicle together with a super heavy tank.

The petrified lizard artillery was the first to attack the canyon. Because they did not want to hurt the civilians in the canyon, they chose to attack the mouth of the canyon and the positions above the canyon. The shells hit the target accurately, causing the entire canyon to shake.

The Syracuse soldiers looked at the Catachan cannons in horror. These powerful weapons were even more powerful than the city defense cannons which were several times larger. It was said that the Ursus Star Army was also equipped with these cannons, and they were even weapons and equipment that every combat unit would possess.

Their country had previously provoked the Republic of Ursus, and now they couldn't help but wipe away a cold sweat. If Ursus was still a hot-tempered brother like before, then these Syracuse soldiers would have been beaten several times long ago. Fortunately, after the change of the Ursus government, it became more rational and advanced, although still hot-tempered.

The Space Marines noticed that an entire team of White Knights, more than one hundred and fifty in number, flew out over the canyon.

"Ah! Brother Semiro, I hope your bolter can tear through any enemy like it did before." A battle brother adjusted his stealth bolter.

Semiro wiped the heavy bolt in his hand and said, "I won't let you down, Brother Cosette!"

Priest Dral raised the priest axe in his hand: "This is our moment! Brothers! Our Emperor's Iron Fist! We are the Emperor's Hammer! We are the Imperial Fist! Forward! Burn all heretics! Kill all mutants! For the Emperor!"

"For the Emperor!"

The White Knights swooped down, and the Space Marines responded with fierce and ferocious fire. Bolter bullets rained down on the White Knights, shattering their wings and their armor. Golden blood and corpses fell down together, and then turned into golden light and disappeared. The dead White Knights were exiled back to the warp.

The lone Terminator spotted the White Knights attempting a flanking attack and faced them, his Storm Bolter raised.

"Heretic! Aim to the left wing!" The storm bolter immediately fired a metal storm, tearing into pieces some white knights who had no time to dodge.

Cosette used the Stalker Bolter to accurately blow up the heads of the White Knights one after another, banishing them back to the warp.

After one round, the Space Marines killed at least forty White Knights with bolters and plasma volleys, but the remaining White Knights also successfully broke into the Space Marines' ranks and immediately engaged in close combat with them.

Yan and four Space Marines headed straight for the canyon.

The goal of the Space Marines is to print out these powerful White Knights, contain and defeat them, and buy time for other troops to break through the canyon.

Doji Zhaxi stood surrounded by the white knights, and his huge body made him an easy target for attack.

But every blow from his massive power sword caused casualties among the White Knights, limbs were severed, bodies were shattered, and the Contemptor's fearless and powerful force smashed all enemies that stood in his way.

But the White Knights were very flexible. They quickly found the Contemptor's Dreadnought's weakness and fought around it, putting the Imperial Fists' ancestors in danger.

But the veterans from the Great Crusade would naturally not allow Chaos to besiege their own legion brothers. Wearing steel or expedition power armor, carrying adamantium shields and Destroyer power axes, they charged into the encirclement of the White Knights and smashed all the White Knights who tried to stop them with their shields.

An old soldier used his power axe to smash the White Knight's weapon, but his weapon was also knocked away by the White Knight. The Space Marines immediately pounced on the White Knight and fought with him with their fists. The attacks of the Space Marines were simple and brutal, but very powerful, especially the Space Marines of the Imperial Fists Legion, who could smash all enemies with their steel fists even without weapons.

The threat of the Despiser's Dreadnought was immediately eliminated, and the rescue of two or three veterans of the legion resolved his crisis. At this moment, the two Redeemer's Dreadnoughts finally had a good shooting environment after being cleaned up by their combat brothers.

A storm of assault cannons and flamethrowers was immediately unleashed by the Dreadnought, smashing the white knights in front into pieces.

But the Space Marines also suffered casualties. The White Knights focused on besieging those younger chapter brothers who had less combat experience. Some of them had only served for a hundred years. The siege of a dozen White Knights eventually made them unable to resist. The chainswords were chopped off by the giant blades, the power armor was pierced by the spears, and the two hearts of the Space Marines were burned in the psychic flames.

This brutal battlefield was filled with psychic spells and bloody fights. Dral released psychic spells and used his scepter to drive back approaching enemies.

The Syracuse army and the Rhodes group bypassed this battlefield of Space Marines and White Knights, their mission being to assault the canyon.

And Tallulah's team occupied a bridgehead here.

The four Space Marines quickly captured the fortress on the rock wall of the canyon. The bolters fired in the carved channels. The huge explosion sound was enough to break people's eardrums. Tallulah and the others had to wear special noise-canceling headphones to reduce the huge noise of the bolters in the small space.

Mudstone, wearing an Iron Cavalry-type Terminator power armor, walked in front of the team, with his stance shield blocking all the bullets from the automatic rifles. Compared with the White Knights outside, these mortal cultists and crusaders were no match for the Space Marines, and the battle became one-sided.

Tallulah and Froststar didn't have to do much, and these team members with guns took care of all the enemies in the fortress.

W replaced the energy magazine of the laser gun: "What should we do now? Wait for the Syracuse army to arrive?"

"No, as soon as the Rhodes Island team arrives, we will continue to charge in."

Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded in Tallulah's mind. After careful listening, she remembered that it was the voice of the cult youth.
