Warhammer 40 A New Hope

"From the ground, we can confirm that the super AI that controls the city is located in the tallest building in the center of the city." Corax analyzed. "We don't know the situation of the underground waterway, and the ground is strictly controlled..."

"Besides, there are enemy drone patrols and surveillance equipment in the sewers. It's only a matter of time before we are discovered."

"It has been confirmed that Curze has attracted the attention of most of the enemies outside the city. It will take some time for them to get in. Omega should still be trying to find a way to get in. After all, this is a city full of robots, so it should be difficult for them to sneak in."

When Corax said this, the surrounding [Raven Guard] Space Marines involuntarily stood up straight, looking a little proud.

"Don't be happy too soon. Sneaking in is just the first step. We still need to complete our mission."

"It's not easy to complete our mission on this planet full of automatic robots."

550. Infiltration (Part )

Twenty-four hours after the attack on the damaged shining world [Remnant Star] began.

The Imperial fleet that attacked the Glittering World's defense fleet continued their attacks, while the automated fleet protecting this world was also constantly resisting the Imperial invasion fleet.

"Father, we have lost dozens of ships now, and the infiltration forces on the ground have not sent back any news." Guilliman reported to O'Neill.

"What about the enemy's losses?"

"It is conservatively estimated that we have destroyed at least twice as many enemy ships as ours, including two fixed armed space stations that can sink our cruiser-class ships with one shot." Guilliman replied. "However, the enemy's ships are being updated according to the ships we attack, and now there are large ships with the same weapons as the armed space stations appearing on the battlefield."

"Prepare to advance. We need to occupy those automated factories." O'Neill said. "It's about having a fleet control an area of ​​high-altitude orbit. We need to know what else we're going to face."

"clear."

Afterwards, following O'Neill's orders, the regular Imperial Navy and Space Marine fleets entered the battlefield and used even more fierce firepower to tear a hole in the originally relatively solid local defense line.

The situation of the battle was reversed in an instant, but then they discovered an automatic fleet from the outskirts of the galaxy that leapt to the vicinity of the planet - this shining world also had an automatic construction factory located elsewhere in the galaxy.

On the other side, when a fleet tried to dock in the high-altitude orbit of the planet as required, several powerful artillery bombardments came from the surface of the planet, causing heavy damage to their ships.

"An automated ship factory hidden somewhere in this galaxy, and ground-based anti-orbital artillery spread across the planet's equator and poles." O'Neill muttered as he looked at the latest intelligence. "This is just an incomplete, damaged shining world..."

"What would it look like if it were a complete shining world?"

【Remnant Star】Sewer

"So, Curze still hasn't come in?" Corax asked, looking at Omega who had reunited with it.

"He seems to be planning to go to those automatic and semi-automatic ground defense facilities to obtain information and try to control and destroy them in preparation for the subsequent large-scale landing operation." Omega replied. "And his regiment is not very suitable for dealing with it, as this place is full of automatic robots."

"By the way, how did you get in?"

"The surveillance system in this city has some problems. We tried to create a temporary fake identity and tampered with some of the system data, so that I could temporarily deceive the patrol drone and reunite with you." Omega replied. "I cleaned up the remaining traces, and they can't find us for the time being."

"But it's not a solution to keep going like this. Those machines will find us sooner or later."

"Before I got here, I found the location of [Axis Security]. Maybe we can try to get what we want from them."

"Worth a try."

． ． ． A few dozen minutes later...

A hovercraft parked on the street suddenly exploded, and the automatic machine and nearby [Axis Security] members left and rushed there.

Then they discovered that there were several time bombs nearby, and they were of a style they had never seen before.

The faulty core is unable to safely and quickly defuse the bombs that are not recorded in its database, so the defusing work can only be done by humans.

But then, more bombs were found in nearby blocks, and a large number of [Axis Security] and other human armed forces had to gather here to try to eliminate the bomb threat while evacuating people nearby.

Their action reduced the number of guards in their company, which allowed Corax and others to carry out their plans.

A group of moving shadows moved along the wall and came to the somewhat deserted [Tianzhou Security] company. There were only two human security personnel standing guard at the door, and they had no idea that danger was approaching.

Without noticing, two tall [Raven Guard] Space Marines appeared near the two of them, subdued them and broke their necks before they could raise the alarm.

The entity was dragged into the sewer, and the invasion of the Axis Security Company began.

After taking control of the lobby, Alpha's Space Marines began to destroy the building's internal systems through the lobby's computers.

The entire building's internal systems were paralyzed after a few minutes, and the Raven Guards then launched further invasions.

According to the information collected, most of the people here have been sent out, and only a small number of security forces are stationed here, including the general manager of [Tianzhou Security] and a senior security member.

Corax and Omega acted very quickly. So far, the automatic patrol machines and the security personnel who stayed here had not noticed anything wrong. The [Raven Guards] were like shadows, reaping the lives of the enemies, while the [Alpha] Space Marines who were good at espionage operations used various means to open the locked doors one after another.

As the last security guard was dragged away, Corax and Omega arrived outside the supervisor's room.

"A small number of personnel were not found. Our actions must have been discovered." Omega counted the enemies they had dealt with and said, "We found several secret passages. According to the scan results, they lead to here."

Then, Omega looked at Corax, only to see him transformed into countless black crows and flying out of the window nearby. Other Space Marines also gathered outside the door silently, waiting for the signal and preparing to break in.

The situation inside the door was just as Omega and others had speculated. Shortly after they invaded, the person in charge of [Axis Security] noticed something was wrong, and the fact that the building's systems went offline one after another confirmed his guess.

However, he discovered it too late. The external communication system had been offline, and a series of defense measures inside the building were also offline. His men fell one after another.

Therefore, he secretly summoned several powerful security members, had them go through the secret passage to his room, and turned it into a fortress, trying to fight off those uninvited 'guests' here and wait for help.

A heavy intelligent machine gun was mounted on an overturned metal desk, and the surrounding [Axis Security] soldiers were also staring intently at the direction of the entrance, ready to pull the trigger at any time.

The walls of the room have been treated to provide good sound insulation and can block ordinary perspective scanning, which means that both parties are now "blind". The location of the room, the thickness of the walls and the size of the windows also make it almost impossible to break through the walls and enter from the direction outside the door.

almost...

All the defenders in the room were concentrating on waiting for the enemy to break in from the main door, and did not notice that a dark shadow suddenly appeared from outside the small window. He directly broke through the tempered glass and alloy window frame and broke into the room.

The sudden attack caught the defenders in the room completely off guard, and the scene that followed was beyond their comprehension.

They saw clearly that the intruding black shadows were some black, featherless red-eyed crows, and then the crows gathered on the fixed machine gun and turned into a giant wearing power armor and fell down!

boom!

The giant's heavy body directly destroyed the machine gun, and then the sound of breaking the door was heard, and several giants in black armor rushed in.

Before, you could only force a head-on confrontation with these [Axis Security] soldiers in a narrow corridor, but this time they no longer have the advantage, and the advantage goes to the Space Marines.

The lightning claws that were jumping with electric light pierced into the bodies of those [Sky Axis Security] soldiers, and then along with the thin armor, the whole person was torn in two.

It took only a dozen seconds from the breakthrough to the end of the battle. The enemy was wiped out without even a chance to fire a shot, and the entire building was completely controlled by the Space Marines.

"We need his DNA, fingerprints, and pupils." Omega immediately began to retrieve data from the computer. "We need him alive."

Corax then brought the only survivor, the head of Axis Security, to Omega and forced him onto the computer.

drop

The computer was turned on, and Omega used the servo skull he carried with him to download the information in it.

"What do you want to do?" The only surviving person in charge of [Axis Security] asked the giant in front of him. "The automatic patrol machines in this city will soon notice the anomaly here, you..."

"The data has been copied. According to the information we have, if we want to reach the destination safely, we need a registered person to lead the way, otherwise we will be stopped halfway."

"Isn't this ready?" Corax said, picking up the man in his hand. "Do you have the Necrons' Heart-Locking Beetle?"

"I don't think so... Never mind." Omega swallowed the words in his mouth. "Do as you say."

551. The Strength of the Shining World

[Hello, citizens of [Canxing], the entire city is now under martial law, and all travel is prohibited. Please show your ID.]

The hovercraft was stopped by a flying patrol machine. The person in charge of [Tianzhou Security] in the car submitted his credentials and reason for travel, and waited for a reply.

[Your credentials have been confirmed, Desius, the head of [Axis Security], you can choose to submit the relevant report to the center after the war is over, or choose to submit it online]

"This report is very special. I need to hand it over to the Central Intelligence Agency in person," Desius replied. "My credentials are fine. This is not the first time I have handed in a report in person."

[Database data is being retrieved... It has been confirmed to be true. I will keep this trip confidential.]

Have a nice day, Mr. Desius.

The automatic inspection machine did not notice at all that Decius in the car did not roll down the window at all, nor did he scan the hovercraft.

At this moment, there was an abnormal bright green glow on Decius' face, and his pupils were also a little green.

"Hasn't this mortal a bigger vehicle?" said Corax, stooping.

"Reminds me of the time we got together and discussed why we were so big and the various problems it brought." Omega's smaller size made him less uncomfortable in the car. "I hate psykers."

"We are better than Sanguinius. Look at those big wings."

"Then you have to talk about Vulkan."

. . . . . .

The hovercraft successfully reached the central tower that controlled the entire shining world, and various inspection and scanning devices could be seen everywhere.

"With this density of enemies and inspection facilities, it's impossible to move forward, right?"

"Not necessarily." Corax said after taking a look.

Omega looked at Corax and was silent for a moment.

"What's the difference between you and the psychic you hate..."

"(Thinking a little) I'm not red."

(Magnus, who was far away in the Halo world, sneezed)

"Get ready, we'll go when they give the signal."

The hovercraft stopped in the internal parking lot, but no one came down for a long time, and soon after, explosions were heard from a distance.

The nearby automatic patrol machines all rushed towards the direction of the explosion, and Corax and Omega took the opportunity to run into the building.

"I saw the repair passage. There are many guards. You..."

drop

boom--!

Omega took down a button and an explosion was heard from outside, followed by an alarm.

"You have the ladder, I have the wall ladder." Omega looked at the guarding machines that were attracted and whispered. "Let's go before these machines react."

The two Primarchs rushed deeper into the central tower while the mechanical guards inside were attracted.

Boom--!

The fallen metal door was directly knocked open by the tall Primarch wearing power armor. It was obvious that when these blockade metal doors were designed, they did not consider that there might be humanoid beings at the Primarch level launching a surprise attack here - this was simply unscientific.

Corax and Omega moved up all the way. Perhaps because this control center had been severely damaged before and had not yet been repaired, the defense facilities along the way were not perfect and they did not encounter much resistance - even if they did, it could not cause any substantial impact on them.

The 30mm machine gun might be a threat to most targets in the Ring World, but for the Primarchs who were wearing heavy power armor, had multiple layers of personal energy shields, and were agile and responsive, it was not a big problem. Often these offensive defense facilities were destroyed by the bolters in the hands of the two men as soon as they appeared.

But this unstoppable momentum did not continue, and soon Corax and Omega encountered the first obstacle they could not ignore - the brain-blasting gun.

This weapon can emit a special energy that can kill organic life forms by boiling their brains. Even the Primarchs cannot withstand the attack of this weapon for long.

Moreover, there are a large number of other defensive facilities around this weapon, and all of these are blocked in front of a heavy metal gate. For intruders, it is like a natural moat that is difficult to cross.

"I'll take care of these things, and you find a way to open that door."

With that, Corax was thrown out from the corner, and the moment he ran out, various attack weapons located near the gate were aimed at him.

Bang bang bang bang－－!

Those weapons fired almost at the same time, blocking Clarks's dodging space from all directions, but in the next second, Clarks' huge body turned into a shadow on the ground.

This situation was obviously beyond the records of these automatic defense devices. Various attacks were launched towards the shadow moving at high speed on the ground, but they could not cause much actual damage to it.

At this time, the brain-blasting gun also began to attack. When it started, it was obvious that the surrounding air was briefly distorted due to its firing.

Click!

However, this dangerous weapon still did not seem to pose any obstacle to the shadow, as it came under it, and then Corax rushed out from it and pulled the brain-blasting gun down.

Corax was not a Primarch known for his strength, but he still possessed strength far beyond that of ordinary people. He wielded the brain-blasting gun that he had torn off, destroying other fixed automatic defense devices around him. The sound of electric current and metal breaking could be heard continuously.

A few minutes later, Omega came out from behind the corner and looked at the pile of defense devices that had been completely destroyed, and Corax with some blood on his face.

"My head is buzzing," Corax panted.

"Thankfully, we don't have to deal with these weapons on a large scale."

Omega said as he walked over to the heavy metal door and found the control panel to try and decipher it.

"It's difficult to decipher, and it will take time to decipher it properly," Omega said. "But we don't have time."

After saying that, Omega unplugged the data cable, took out several melta grenades and installed them on the door.
