Seeing the Scarlet Slayer appear, Deathwing Master Belial was shocked.
And what the other party said next made him even more frightened!
"Bastards of the First Legion! Come out and fight to the death! Otherwise I will tell everyone on the planet your secrets using a loudspeaker that has never been seen before!!!!!!!!!"
In an instant, all the hairs on Beria's body stood on end.
He quickly connected to the secret communication of the battle group and reported the situation.
"That lunatic Kranon is here!! We must destroy him immediately!"
Interrogation priest Azmodai also howled in the channel as if the doomsday was coming.
"Kill him! Now! Now! Kill him!! Let the bastard shut his mouth!!!!"
Azrael was silent for a while and then made a sound.
"Beria, hold him, I will bring someone over right away."
The Dark Angels opened fire, firing upon the approaching enemy.
Ignoring the explosions in his armor, Kranon galloped through the storm without stopping, then jumped up, decapitating one Deathwing with the first blow of his axe, and then struck back with a blow to kill another.
The dark angel who was swinging his sword at him had his chest bruised and his armor shattered.
"Keep shooting!"
Beria roared and jumped forward to meet the attack, but was too late to save the third brother, so the third brother's torso was split open from the waist to the shoulders.
Feeling remorseful, Beria decided that if he could survive, he would atone for his slowness.
"Belia! Come on!"
Kranon turned to meet the Deathwing Grand Master's counterattack as Belial's bullets exploded against his armor.
Belial raised his Silent Sword, one of the legendary Swords of Heaven, and prepared to strike.
When the traitor swept the blade towards the Dark Angel's throat, Belial blocked it with the gun on his arm, and then stabbed out the weapon in his hand.
The legendary power sword bit into the armor, making a harsh sound, biting the left shoulder of the Crimson Slayer.
Then Beria roared angrily, slashed his sword diagonally, and beheaded the enemy directly. When blood spurted out from his neck, the Heartless had already rushed in front of him, swung his right arm violently, and slammed the weapon's tail handle.
Beria's head.
Out of instinct, the Grand Master raised his sword to block the next blow.
When the sword blade and chain blade met, sharp metal fragments rained down around him——
At the same time, the Ravenwing Grand Master Samuel, who was responsible for intercepting fish that slipped through the fortress outside the fortress, also encountered unexpected situations. The communication network was overwhelmingly reporting enemy warnings, and every measured and brief message was covered up.
The chaos that suddenly engulfs the Ravenwing, and the underlying panic is felt in its entirety rather than in its individual parts.
Samuel understood the shock in these voices very well. When artillery fire and missiles screamed at the Black Knights from hidden bunkers, the same sense of confusion and unreality spread in his mind.
"Heavily armed enemies are moving westward through the forest."
"Concentrating fire from the ground and above! Where are they coming from?"
"Damn! I swear I saw one..."
A motorcycle was only a few meters away from Samuel. An explosion burned the combat motorcycle into a roller composed of superheated steam and molten ceramics. Samuel swerved to avoid the expanding gas cloud and atoms.
chemical substance and realize it is a multi-melta attack.
His loud warning voice was lost in the din.
"Armored vehicles, ancient Legion models, have broken through the buildings on our flanks."
"O Emperor, there are traitors everywhere! The rebels have launched a massive counterattack by regrouping!"
"Reinforcements! We need reinforcements!"
"At nine o'clock, heavy armored units are entering. Urgent request for air strikes! Where is the air cover!?"
"Two Land Speeders have been destroyed! Request Apothecary to retrieve survivors! The enemy is advancing and support is urgently needed."
Samuel caught a glimpse of color ahead, huge objects moving through the rubble flattened by orbital bombardments, the surrounding fortifications showing clearly in the birdserver scans.
The Ravenwing Grand Master checked his vehicle again, and although artillery fire was rolling in from the direction where it should have been, it still found no enemy.
"It seems to be some kind of mask."
He said something, but no one seemed to be listening.
Each of the Ravenwing Knights is focused on fighting against the enemy, dodging various explosions, roaring heavy bombs and dazzling ruby beams of lasers.
Samuel turned his bike towards the last threat, firing a volley of bullets from its plasma claw into the firing pit where the heavy weapons was housed.
Just then, he saw something that made him pause for a moment.
The laser cannon was not the tripod-mounted secondary weapon he had expected. It was carried on the shoulders of a warrior in power armor, dwarfing the poorly armored rebels.
A traitor.
Samuel didn't recognize his enemy from the black power armor he wore, but as the enemy Space Marine turned his lascannon, the yellow and black symbol on his shoulder revealed his former allegiance - a traitor to the Word Bearers Legion.
.
There were other giants around him, more giants in red armor, and some in black armor, rushing towards the area where Ravenwing was.
Those guys in scarlet power armor, the Red Pirates, Samuel recognized these bastards immediately.
They are the ones who made everything messy!
"All vanguard squadrons retreat! Exit immediately and do not get into a prolonged engagement."
There is no doubt that the Ravenwing is not suitable for fighting against enemies in defensive operations, especially enemies with superior numbers.
He had to admit that the enemy's choice of attack direction was very clever.
What's more critical is that they don't get any support. The Supreme Master has mobilized all his forces to encircle Kranon. Samuel immediately realized that this would let go of the enemy who had been beaten to death.
But he couldn't refute it. The secret of the war group was the most important.
The Ravenwing began to retreat, followed by the gunfire of the Traitor Space Marines. They accelerated, Samuel's soul heavy with the thought of defeat.
Soon, things turned into a situation that everyone least expected to see. The rebels rushed into the fortress and picked up the Chaos Lord who had been surrounded for months.
There are less than thirty people left.
Azrael's plan to besiege Kranon was completely aborted due to the appearance of the Black Legion and the Red Corsairs. After ridiculing the Dark Angels, Kranon laughed and led the team to retreat.
Despite subsequent pursuits and aerial strikes by the Empire, the Chaos side completely withdrew from the battlefield through secret underground passages.
When Soshyan and Azriel met in the ruins of Fortress No. 7, both of them were speechless and choked.
Soshyan didn't blame the Dark Angels for their offensive woes.
Azrael also did not blame the Astral Knights for not providing timely support.
Because failure is failure, and the ultimate bitter fruit can only be swallowed by commanders like them.
