——————————————The dividing line of Manta Flying Machine———————————————————— "——Emergency communication from the Sumar Champion. The Sumar Champion is very grateful for our ground fire support. He believes that the human warriors chasing his team have either lost their pursuit ability due to our fire coverage or have been eliminated by our fire coverage. He praises you for completing a wonderful hunt, Captain." In the captain's cabin of the Manta aircraft, the captain of the Qi clan, who was anxiously waiting for the result of the fire coverage, finally received the good news he had been waiting for - he did not arrive a step late, he and his crew members successfully helped their champion! "Help me get through to Champion Sumar and tell him that we are about to land and ask him to prepare for evacuation. Also, can you get in touch with Commander Li Radel?" "No - Commander Li Radel's communication channel is still offline." Captain Manta's deputy tapped the projection screen in front of him a few times and gave his boss an answer. Of course, he didn't think this was so strange - after all, after Champion Sumar and Commander Liradel met up, Commander Liradel took the initiative to go offline on his communication channel in order to prevent certain things. Now, although the pursuit of the Human Empire seemed to have been stopped, the crisis had not actually occurred, so it was understandable that Commander Liradel's communication had not yet been online. "That's weird...why don't I see Commander Liradel and his men? Didn't Champion Sumar say they've reunited?" Looking at the battle-scarred Fire Warriors standing on the ground as his Manta aircraft approached, and the Sumar Champion whose combat uniform had several obvious marks of heavy blows, Captain Manta, who had already used the Manta's onboard scanning device to identify all of them, was confused. The Sumar Champion's team was all here, no problem, but where was Commander Li Radel? Where were the humans who chose to follow the Greater Good? Why didn't he see any of them? However, since this matter was not his responsibility, and his mission this time was only to evacuate the Sumar Champions, the captain of the Manta chose to throw this doubt out of his mind, commanded his aircraft to land on the ground, and arranged for the Sumar Champions' team to board the Manta. After a while, the Sumar Champions' team was loaded. "Captain, the Sumar Champion said that Li Radel did not act with him after that.
He wants to talk to you in person about some things, and he seems reluctant to let the elders know about some things too early." Before the captain of the Manta aircraft could arrange for the Sumar Champion's team to rest, his deputy looked up and informed him of the latest communication from the Sumar Champion who had already boarded the plane. "…What is the Sumar Champion thinking?" Captain Manta, who felt that something was fishy, pondered for a moment but did not delve into it further. He nodded to indicate his permission - at the same time, he couldn't help but become curious. What happened to Commander Liradel that made Champion Sumar want to talk to him face to face? Did something terrible happen to Commander Liradel? Or did Commander Liradel do something bad that made Champion Sumar have to bring his team members to meet him first? "No - Champion Sumar, you can't enter the mecha battle room in your combat uniform, this is...Ah!!!" Short screams, dense footsteps, and the sound of pulse weapons firing pulled the captain of the Manta aircraft out of his contemplation, and then gave him a stunned expression - he clearly saw that the fully armed Sumar champion directly tore open the door of the captain's cabin, and then shot his deputy half of his body into steam. He clearly saw that the members of the Sumar champion's team pulled the trigger one by one, killing the other people in the captain's cabin without mercy. He clearly saw... "What are you doing!! Champion of Sumar! You are killing your own people!! The Greater Good does not allow us to do such a thing!!!" When the battle suit of the Sumar Champion walked to his side with heavy footsteps and the drones floating beside the Champion began to blatantly access his Manta's control system, the Manta Captain, who had regained some consciousness from his daze, vaguely realized what had happened - the Sumar Champion and his team members slaughtered the Manta's crew members? And tried to gain control of the Manta? Ether! This is too unkind! "The Greater Good? Screw the Greater Good! It's arguably the most unrealistic lie in the galaxy!" Sumar, saying something that could be considered treasonous to the Tau race, grabbed Captain Manta and roughly pressed him against the resolution device on the console. Using this cruel method, Manta's control was completely cracked, and the drone connected to the console began to tamper with the data in the database. "Sumar...you...have betrayed...the Greater Good...you will not...end well..." Knowing that he was doomed, Captain Manta uttered what he thought was a vicious curse, which in return earned him a hearty laugh from 'Sumar'. "How many people in this galaxy can have a happy ending? I have made my heart clear! For the Emperor!" Captain Manta's expression froze because of the words 'Sumar'. In the last moment of his life, what he saw on the screen out of the corner of his eye were the warriors of the Human Empire...the kind called Astartes...who were boarding his Manta aircraft in an orderly manner. 16. The Weeper - probably considered a boarding ship What needs to be done to capture an alien space battleship? Anyway, before today, the Astartes of the Weepers would never give an answer like "simply get on the alien's aircraft, get ready, and then wait for the alien to take you to the sky" - the correct answer is to use boarding torpedoes, carrier-based aircraft, or other more drastic means to approach the alien warship, kill all the way from the outer area to the core area of the alien warship, and kill the alien commander - but today, the Astartes veterans of the Weepers..... Everyone was in a state of confusion because this impossible thing had happened.
"Captain, is this...really reliable? I don't mean to distrust our battle brothers, but this method is too bizarre. I think we should be vigilant and be prepared to deal with emergencies at any time." Next to Malakin, the captain of the Weepers, a veteran soldier who now felt that his brain was spinning wildly was looking at the door of the warehouse where his group was staying with a critical look, and at the same time, he made suggestions to Malakin in the team's communication channel. His suggestions were echoed by several other veteran soldiers of the Weepers. After all, if the Dark Angels and Deathwatch were not the ones operating this matter, they would probably suspect that there was something wrong with their battle brothers first... "This is inevitable." Although he had made sufficient mental preparations beforehand, when he was welcomed onto the Manta aircraft by a group of Tau alien fire warriors, and heard with his own ears that their leader, a Tau alien who should be a small commander in the Tau army, said that he had abandoned the hypocritical Ether and the Greater Good created by the hypocritical Ether, and chose the true right path in the galaxy, Malakin still instinctively checked himself - the data was normal, and there was nothing unusual in the results. "Our battle brothers seem to 'trust' those aliens." Another Weeper veteran spoke up slowly, getting to the heart of another issue. Anyone with a decent eye for the Weepers could tell that both the Dark Angels and the Deathwatch were concerned about the alien aircraft. The titanium aliens active in the traveler have extraordinary trust and indulgence - there is nothing wrong with their battle brothers, their chapter leader has guaranteed this, but where does this weird trust come from? "Don't think about it if you don't want to get into trouble." "Yes, Chapter Master." The Weeper veteran who asked the question shrugged his shoulders and began to shift his attention to adjusting his power armor - other Weeper Astartes also began to do the same. Silence temporarily enveloped the Weeper communication channel, but this silence only lasted for a few dozen minutes before it was broken by a rustling sound - "We are about to board the ship." In the successfully launched joint combat communication channel, Redler's voice, which was deliberately made a little hoarse, sounded in a deep voice. "Understood, what do you need us to do?" Captain Malakin took a deep breath, gripped his weapon tightly, and began to mobilize all the muscles in his body in an orderly manner. "This is the internal structure diagram of the alien warship. Our 'allies' will first create enough chaos in the alien warship to attract some of the alien defense forces and create a larger space for us to move around. Then, these are what we will do later. I have arranged the combat missions of each regiment." A diagram of the battleship's internal structure appeared before Chapter Master Malakin's eyes. Three symbols representing the Dark Angels, Death Watch, and Lamenters were marked in three areas. When Chapter Master Malakin saw clearly which area his own chapter was marked in, he couldn't help but be stunned. "I am confident that the Sons of Sanguinius will not let us down, Chapter Master Malakin." As if noticing the change in Captain Malakin's mood, Redler spoke hoarsely. "We won't let you down." Chapter Master Malakin, sensing that his group had been entrusted with great trust and responsibility, stood up with a firm tone. At this moment, the warships of the Tau Empire, unaware of the terror that was about to fall, were opening the hangar doors to welcome the return of their "heroes". ————————————————The dividing line of the Tau Empire———————————————————— Something seems to be wrong with the Soumar champion. When 'Sumar' and his team members stepped down from the Manta aircraft in a 'battle-damaged' posture, and greeted the surrounding staff very politely, an Earth Clan maintenance worker couldn't help but frowned slightly - in his memory, Champion Sumar was not an approachable Fire Clan warrior. He was so arrogant and aggressive that sometimes the elders had to step down to tow him away. Therefore, he had never taken the initiative to greet any of his fellow Titanium compatriots from the Earth Clan. Why did Champion Sumar change his personality after coming back this time? "Hey, don't you think the Sumar Champion is a little weird?" Of course, it was not just this Earth Clan technician who felt that the champion of his fleet seemed like a different person. Several other Earth Clan technicians also intuitively sensed that something was amiss. Admittedly, Champion Sumar's current performance was indeed very Most Higher Good. However, the Titanium Clan members who knew this champion knew that Champion Sumar's perception of the Most Higher Good had always been simply, "These are words from the Ether, so I must obey them!" "Perhaps it was because of Commander Liradel's achievements that Champion Sumar had a deeper understanding of the Greater Good, so he began to change his behavior?" An Earth Clan member made an uncertain inference - it was not uncommon in the Tau Empire for a proud warrior to become humble due to a deeper understanding of the Greater Good. However, as far as he knew, such a thing had never happened to any Fire Clan warrior at the champion level or above - after all, Fire Clan members who could make it to this point all had some special qualities, and their peculiarities were always tolerated as long as it did not violate the principles of the Tau. "Speaking of Commander Liradel - eh? Didn't they say that Champion Sumar successfully reunited with Commander Liradel and successfully retreated from the clutches of humans? Where is Commander Liradel?"
A Tu clan member suddenly discovered something even more wrong - according to the combat progress reported by Champion Sumar to the fleet elders, he had successfully completed the mission this time he returned, but now all members of Champion Sumar's team have left the Manta, but Commander Liradel and his people have no signs of showing up - even stranger is that none of the Manta's crew members have left the Manta, as if the entire Manta was carrying only Champion Sumar and his group! "I heard you discussing me. Indeed, after this mission, I re-examined my heart, examined the Ether, and examined the Greater Good that the Ether taught us. Now, I have a deeper understanding of these things..." Just as the Tu clan technicians were biting their ears and muttering words that made them feel more and more uneasy, the Sumar champion in combat uniform suddenly stopped at the door of the hangar, turned around and looked at the Tu clan members working in the hangar. His team members also stopped returning to the dormitory and stood in very delicate positions that were obviously good firepower points. Seeing the strange behaviors of these compatriots, the Huo clan member in charge of defense in the hangar felt that something seemed to be extremely wrong. The captain immediately took action—— Then he was killed instantly by a shot from Sumar who raised his hand and opened fire. The remaining limbs were carried by the shock wave and covered the Tu Clan technicians closest to him. "what!!!!!" Having never expected that something might happen to him so blatantly, the Earth clan member who had received the 'surprise' let out the most miserable scream he could ever make since he was born. The next second - the scream stopped abruptly. This 'lucky' Tau man was pierced through the head by a pulse rifle and fell heavily to the floor of the hangar. After twitching twice, he became motionless. "Champion of Sumar! What are you doing!!" Almost five seconds after Champion Sumar blasted the captain of the hangar defense team into pieces, the Tau people in the hangar looked at the two corpses on the ground and realized how cruel and against the will of the Greater Good Champion Sumar and his team had done, and then they connected their brains to their throats - of course, the Tau people who spoke were easily shot into sieves by the pulse rifles, and the fire warriors who wanted to fight back were attacked by the machine bees, and the programs of their combat suits were disordered, and they lost their functions for a short time. "I am just doing what I should do now. The Ether is a liar, and the Greater Good that a liar says is also a lie. The only being worth following in the galaxy is the great Holy Emperor. The Tau Empire actually wants to invade the territory of the Empire under the Emperor's rule, and has sent troops to try to kill the Emperor's people. Do you think that all the aliens in the Tau Empire should die as a token of their sin?" "......" If Sumar's inexplicable killing just now only made the remaining Tau feel angry and confused, now, after Sumar's argument, these Tau felt fear and madness - what happened to the Sumar champion? How could he have a completely different personality after returning from a rescue mission? No! It even felt like he had become a different person! A human with Sumar's skin? "Sumar, do you know what you are talking about?" A drone flew into the hangar, and the projection it produced showed the face of the fleet elder who was clearly suppressing his anger - it was obvious that Sumar's every move just now was known to the fleet elder who was waiting for news, but because Sumar's behavior was too unbelievable, the Titanium elder, who had seen a lot of storms, had a storm in his mind for a long time before sending out the drone that represented his will. "Of course I know - no, we all know what I'm talking about. Abandoning illusions and pursuing the truth, isn't that what we need to do most?" Looking at the facial projection of the fleet elder hanging in the air, the camera position of 'Sumar's' combat suit flashed twice, as if mocking the elder. "You? Then give me an answer now. There is still some room for reversal. Do you plead guilty?" Although Sumar's words just now clearly stated that he and his team members had betrayed the Greater Good and defected to the Empire for unknown reasons, the fleet elder decided to give Sumar a chance - he could see that something was wrong, and if Sumar could come to his senses, perhaps he could figure out what was happening to the champion. However, the answer the fleet elder received was... "Our answer is - for the Emperor!!!" Thunderous war cries rang out simultaneously from Sumar and his men, and at the same time, these "Tau soldiers" suddenly opened fire on their compatriots. In an instant, the screams of the Tau people continued - and the next moment, the fleet elder found that the screen in front of him that was monitoring the real-time status of the hangar was also blurred - because of the battle, most of the equipment in the hangar had completely gone out of control, and as an elder, he also lost the management authority of the hangar. After thinking for a second, the fleet elder decisively gave orders to other troops in the fleet. "Immediately go to the hangar and suppress the riot - all traitors, kill them on the spot!!" ——————————————The dividing line of the weeper———————————————————————— "Well, battle brothers, we can proceed according to the plan - as you can see, our allies are ready to sacrifice their lives for the Emperor, and we cannot let them down." After the regular rounds of firing from the Tau Empire's weapons in the hangar gradually faded away, Redler, who was sure that the hangar had completely become a "territory under dispute" for the Tau Empire, controlled his descended body, calmly went online on the joint combat communication channel, and spoke - and by the way, he received the slightly erratic voice of Captain Malakin. "Brother Redler, my brother and I will keep this battle as top secret." "No need to worry, battle brother."
Probably knowing what Captain Malakin had imagined, Redler "comforted" Captain Malakin and turned his head helplessly, exchanged glances with the two hammer men next to him, then stood up and, with a click, prepared the weapons of his descended body. "Let's go. It's time to let the Titanium on this ship know what 'Titanium Terror' means." 17. The Weeper - Uninvited Guests Before this happened, the elders of the fleet had never thought that the fleet Such a thing could happen to the fleet's flagship, the battleship he was in charge of. It was something beyond his imagination. When Champion Sumar returned to the battleship, he and his team members not only took the initiative to shoot and kill several compatriots, but also publicly announced in the hangar that he had abandoned the Aether and the Greater Good, and followed the so-called "Emperor of Mankind". The entire battleship was in chaos - at first, the elders of the fleet thought that the problem could be solved by eliminating Champion Sumar and his team members who had gone insane for unknown reasons. However, shortly after he officially issued the combat order, the elders were "surprised" to find that the out-of-control area of the battleship not only did not shrink, but was expanding further! "All teams, report the current battle situation immediately!" Looking at the surveillance screen that kept going off in front of him, the elder of the Sumar team easily guessed that the enemies making a fuss in his battleship were definitely more than just the crazy ones. He decisively activated the emergency communication protocol and contacted the warriors of the Tau Empire who were probably fighting bloody battles in the battleship. However, after receiving a few meaningless answers and screams, the sound coming from the emergency communication protocol was nothing but noise. ".....Ether, what on earth have we encountered?" Knowing that the failure of the emergency communication protocol meant that he had completely lost control of the Tau forces inside the battleship, the fleet elder instantly fell into an unprecedented fear. Although the ether's earnest teachings kept lingering in his ears, reminding him of duty, courage, and the Greater Good, how could one of the most primitive emotions of a creature be suppressed by these things? It would only continue to expand over time, and then try to devour the creature's heart! "Sizzle-sizzle-crack ... Just as the fleet elder was doing his best, using all the teachings he could think of, trying to control the negative emotions such as fear and despair that kept churning in his heart, a slight sound of energy pipeline failure suddenly reached his ears, and in less than a breath, the lights and other lighting devices in his meditation room went out one by one due to the loss of energy supply. Although the backup energy source quickly took effect and reignited the lighting devices, before the fleet elder could breathe a sigh of relief, the lighting devices all went out again - darkness and silence easily swallowed up the room, and the only remaining light source for the fleet elder was the personal terminal on his wrist. "N-No! The Greater Good! Aether! Anyone! I want to know what's going on! I want to know what's happening on my ship!" Just like the last feather falling on the scales, the darkness and silence that swept over finally tore apart the fleet elder's inner defenses, causing his inner weakness, fear and other emotions to flow out, lingering around him and lingering - Unable to help himself, this fleet elder who originally firmly believed in the ether and the Greater Good pointed out by the ether was the right path for the universe, let out something he had never thought he would roar, his extreme emotions were like a small stone, finally rippling a ripple in the subspace... "Ah! Let me see! What kind of cutie is calling out for knowledge and hope? Huh? Titanium! Interesting! Interesting! There is actually a titanium that can transmit his soul waves to my labyrinth!" The azure blue, as blue as the purest sky, suddenly filled the fleet elder's vision. There was a joyful voice laughing in the ears of the fleet elder. In a trance, the fleet elder seemed to see all the knowledge in the boundless starry sky, and even saw a glimpse of the future of his own fleet! "Who are you? No, who are you?" Unconsciously, the fleet elder used honorifics, and the owner of the voice seemed to be stunned for a moment, then let out an even more shrill laugh. "As expected of you! As expected of you! Your weak souls, even after you witnessed my greatness and heard my voice, you failed to follow my righteous path? All right! All right! Let me see what happened to you - relax... It takes a little effort for me to peek into your fate..." The upside-down voices kept coming into the ears of the Titanium Fleet Elder. The mysterious scroll kept moving in front of his eyes, plucking his heartstrings. It seemed that something slippery had entered his brain and gently shook it - he seemed to have lost something? And it seemed that he hadn't lost anything? “This…this…this!!! This is so interesting!!! Hahahaha!!! So His current state! Can it be used in this way? Hahahaha!!!” A heart-wrenching laugh rang out, completely breaking the silence of the meditation room. The elder of the Titanium fleet heard clearly the meaning of the mysterious visitor's words and felt that he might have really grasped a life-saving straw. Therefore, he felt his spirits lifted. "Can you tell me the answer? I can..." "The answer? Of course I can tell you! And I am happy to tell you! Price? The price you need to pay is, let me see! Let me see what you are going to face!" Before the fleet elder could finish his request, the owner of the voice made a promise to him in ecstasy. However, before the fleet elder could thank the owner of the voice, something that had never appeared in his nightmares happened to him! “Hmm—ah—quack—kouye—ahhhhhh!!!” The power of change from the High Heaven suddenly came to the next door of reality, and the blessing of the Demon Bird God spared no effort to flow to the soul of the fleet elder, which was not even as strong as a firefly in the warp. In an instant, a large amount of evil power crashed into reality, and then, because the soul of the blessed was too weak, it flowed back into the warp, briefly setting off a circle of warp storm in a certain area - after a few screams, the soul of the fleet elder was shattered, blue flames appeared in his eyes, and the Supreme Eagle's sight peeked into reality through his flesh. “It’s a big loss! But! It’s also a big profit!!!”
After much trouble, and with the fleet elders not resisting and even cooperating seriously, Tzeentch barely managed to focus his attention on reality. Normally, this would be a losing business for any Chaos power. However, the Devil Bird God spied something new... "How did He do it? How did He demonstrate His power? I am so excited! Looking forward to it!" ————————————————The dividing line of the weeper—————————————————————— "......" Malakin, Chapter Master of the Weepers, calmly watched as several Tau Fire Warriors, whose equipment could not be more standard, rushed out of the door beside the passage, roaring for the Emperor, and with a fearless spirit, used their bodies to block the firepower from a Tau heavy weapon set up at the intersection in front of them, which he did not recognize, thus buying precious time for his own group to charge. Then, he looked expressionlessly at a Tau champion wearing a combat uniform identical to that of 'Sumar', who emerged from behind his group, and without hesitation launched a counterattack against the two columns of pursuers after saying "for the Emperor" - now, after launching a raid on their target area, the Astartes of the Weepers have completely become "indifferent" to such things. However, even though they have become more indifferent, it does not mean that the wailers now think this is "very normal". "I swear to the Gene-Father that even if we don't keep the secret of what happened here, no one will believe the whole experience of this boarding trip. Not only did the aliens choose to fight in the name of the Emperor, but they also gladly accepted the fate of being killed or expelled because they were aliens. No matter how you look at it, this is too..."
