Chapter 170 Holy Black Frenzy: The Emperor's Champion of the Black Templar (VII)
[In the ninth week, your fleet quickly arrived at Kakdomins.]
[Before the expeditionary fleet approached, the defense platform in the planet's orbit mercilessly erupted with extremely fierce and terrifying firepower, launching a tenacious attack on the entire fleet.]
[The laser arrays and plasma macrocannons from the battle barges and strike cruisers fired extremely terrifying scorching beams, rapidly melting the huge metal structure of the defense platform.]
[One after another, the Sword-class frigates also forcibly withstood the opponent's firepower baptism, constantly using flexible movement paths to move forward at a high speed, and ejected more plasma beam arrays. ]
[Accompanied by the wanton drifting of countless metal fragments and the rippling of void shields, three strike cruisers passed through the cold void and quickly approached the planetary orbit of Cakdomins, directly launching an orbital bombardment from the sky.]
[Bursts of horrific and merciless firepower almost cleansed most of the planet's surface, destroying countless cities and surface buildings. ]
[Then, one after another, the airdrop capsules, with friction flames, quickly passed through the cold atmosphere and roared towards the bottom of the planet.]
[The three strike cruisers that completed the orbital bombing mission moved away from the planet's orbit and gradually merged with the battle barges that were responsible for the support.]
[This is to prevent the powerful psychic power of the 'tyrant' from completely controlling the psychics inside the ship, causing greater losses to the entire expedition fleet.]
[At the same time, Sword-class frigates quickly entered the planet's orbit, opened the hangar doors, and Thunderhawk transport planes loaded with heavy vehicles flew towards the planet's surface.]
[You are standing in a violently shaking airdrop pod wearing a metal helmet surrounded by a crown of thorns.]
[Ten Librarian brothers holding bolt guns and power scepters follow you.]
[You use your sturdy arms wrapped in pious chains to hold the bolt rifle equipped with a high-capacity drum magazine.]
[Accompanied by a loud landing sound and a flashing red light in the airdrop cabin.]
[The pitch-black metal wall was instantly pierced, and icy wind and snow poured into the airdrop cabin.]
[You drove the 'Armor of Faith' and rushed out first. ]
[The think tank brothers also jumped out of the airdrop cabin one after another. ]
[You quickly saw through the helmet eyepiece that one Leman Russ tank after another emerged from the ruins of the building, turning its huge turret, and the Chimera troop carrier that luckily escaped the orbital bombardment.]
["Has our Land Raider landed yet? Immediately fire on the enemy! Buy time for the other battle brothers who haven't landed yet!" You pulled the trigger of the bolt rifle without hesitation, and shouted into the communication device. ]
[The next moment, accompanied by the violent roar of the vehicle engine, a number of Crusader Land Raiders quickly rushed out from behind you.]
[On each vehicle, the firing unit array consisting of twelve storm bolters and the twin assault cannons on the roof instantly erupted with a deafening roar of terror, forming a series of magnificent firepower barrages.]
[In the blink of an eye, dozens of Chimera troop carriers were completely blown up by the Land Raiders' terrifying firepower.]
[Countless Astra Militarum soldiers who had no time to escape instantly turned into burning fireballs with their bodies shattered.]
[Even the heavily armored Leman Russ tanks were suppressed by the continuous firepower and had to launch an attack in advance. ]
[Accompanied by a fierce roar of gunfire, a Land Raider that had no time to dodge was exploded by the armor-piercing shells of the Leman Russ tank.]
[A small group of Astartes monks surrounding the Land Raider were thrown out by the impact of the vehicle's explosion. A large number of broken limbs and arms wrapped in power armor kept colliding with your "Armor of Faith", making a dull sound.]
["Has the heavy firepower team landed? Take down those Leman Russ tanks immediately!" You casually put on your bolt rifle that had run out of ammunition and sent out the next order through the communication device. ]
[At the same time, the think tank brothers following behind you also joined the battle. ]
[A series of winding psychic lightning leaped out from their palms, destroying the drivers inside the Leman Russ tanks.]
[You quickly scanned the chaotic battlefield, trying to find the pillar of light emitting golden light.]
[You did not find any trace of the 'tyrant'. ]
[You raised the cross-shaped medium-sized storm shield with one hand, and held the heavy 'black sword' tightly in the other hand.]
[You rushed towards the Leman Russ tank that was turning its turret in the distance without hesitation.]
[You drove the 'Armor of Faith' and smashed several Astra Militarum soldiers who were planning to die with you.]
[The flames from the grenade explosions were completely blocked by the ancient iron halo, and even the outer shell of the power armor was not touched at all. ]
[At the same time, airdrop pods continuously descended from outside the atmosphere and landed heavily on the scorched earth and snow-covered land.]
[Accompanied by the roar of the hatch opening, a large number of Crusader teams acting in tacit coordination rushed out of the airdrop cabin carrying heavy firepower weapons.]
[They had no time to rest and launched a continuous barrage of fire towards the enemy.]
[The huge number of heretic Leman Russ tanks began to be gradually damaged and reduced, and the huge threat from the enemy's firepower was temporarily suppressed. ]
[This also gave more Astartes monks time to gather quickly. ]
[Nearly 600 Astartes Brothers of the Black Templars raised their bolters in their hands, and held power weapons or roaring chainswords in their other hands.]
["For the Emperor——"]
[They let out battle roars that resounded through the sky, and launched an unstoppable charge toward the heretics ahead.]
[This is the first time that an Astartes group charge has appeared on the front battlefield of the Empire since the end of the Horus Heresy.]
[You subconsciously opened your eyes. ]
[You can't help but let out a blood-boiling battle roar. ]
[You drive the 'Armor of Faith' with all your might to speed up the charge. ]
[You wielded the Black Sword and quickly passed by the side of a Leman Russ tank. The pitch-black blade easily tore through the heavy plastic steel tracks, completely paralyzing the opponent's ability to move.]
[You casually took a holy water grenade blessed by a priest from your waist.]
[Your magnetic boots slam into the muddy ground and instantly jump onto the top of the tank.]
[You swung the Black Sword again, and the pitch-black blade easily split open the heavy hatch of the Leman Russ tank.]
[Accompanied by the terrified screams of the internal driving personnel, you threw the holy water grenade with the ring pulled off into the room.]
[You immediately jumped off the Leman Russ tank, and a violent explosion of fire suddenly burst out from behind you.]
[At this moment, a series of scorching lasers and plasma beams instantly focused on your power armor, but were completely blocked by the powerful protective ability of the iron halo and did not cause any harm to you.]
[You quickly turn your gaze away.]
[You peered through the eyepiece of your metal helmet, piercing through the cold snowstorm that was swirling back and forth on the battlefield, and discovered the blurry figures of more mortal puppets surging up.]
[You also saw the Astartes wielding melee weapons and chanting prayers in praise of the Emperor. They rushed into the mortal attack team without hesitation, setting off a bloody storm.]
[You take a deep breath. ]
[You also raised the Storm Shield and the Black Sword, and charged forward again.]
[You are still searching for the pillar of light emitting golden light in the chaotic battlefield, fulfilling your duty as the Emperor's champion.]
[But the increasing number of mortal puppets makes your charge extremely difficult. ]
[Instantly, one Land Raider after another quickly passed by you. They rushed into the bloody tide of mortal puppets and crushed them wantonly.]
[Even so, the number of mortal puppets on the battlefield seems endless. ]
[You even have a strange illusion that you are facing the Tyranids. ]
[As time slowly passed, the chaotic battlefield covered in ice and snow began to gradually flash with brilliant lights of psychic lightning and psychic flames.]
[That was the contribution made by the think tank brothers scattered around the battlefield.]
[As the Thunderhawk transport plane quickly landed, the priests chanting prayers led the monk servitors carrying ammunition out of the cabin and joined the battlefield.]
[One after another, invisible blessings fell on the power armors of many Astartes monks. ]
[The psychic support of nearly a hundred think tank brothers and the faith blessing of more than fifty hermit priests seemed to have greatly reduced the pressure on the Astartes monks in the frontal battle.]
[At this moment, even in the face of the mortal puppets that kept pouring in like a tide, the Black Templars' fighting brothers showed no signs of stopping their charge.]
[Their devout faith in the Emperor made them unwilling to take even a single step back.]
[At this moment, deep in the tide of flesh and blood of the mortal puppets, you, wielding the 'black sword' and unrivaled, suddenly stopped your forward steps.]
[An inexplicable sense of crisis suddenly enveloped your heart. ]
[You casually used the cross-shaped storm shield to smash the flesh and blood bodies of several mortal puppets.]
[You use the helmet's eyepiece to continuously turn your sight to scan the chaotic scene on the battlefield.]
[The next second, you suddenly see a series of nine-meter-tall blurry black shadows gradually approaching the flank of the regiment from the ice and snow storm not far away.]
[You suddenly opened your eyes wide.]
[You quickly let out a deafening roar into the communication device inside the helmet.]
["Titan! The Knight Titan is coming——"]
Thank you for your support!
