one of the crew members said loudly, quickly scanning through the large amount of data coming from one of the cogitators on the bridge. The rest of the bridge was controlled by several cogitators salvaged from the hulk, as they were not related to
Other parts match, resulting in poor performance.
With exposed circuit boards and rows of valve switches clicking and buzzing constantly, the rest of the bridge looks like a theater, with ornate decorations on the walls and bundles of cables threaded through holes.
entangled together.
Every sensor and system that was still working was connected to a data network created by a half-way technical apprentice so that he could know what was going on in and around the ship and be able to control it from the bridge.
perform manipulation.
Before the ship left the subspace and entered the physical universe, the technical sergeant informed Eli Dazadon to come to the bridge, and several other Astartes monitored the fluctuations of the data together with the commander.
They all wore scarlet armor, with the dim Angel of Death symbol on the chest, and a red crossed sword symbol on the white shoulder armor.
It is also a sign of being cursed and despised.
The Crimson Sabers have been declared traitors by the Empire. They are now known as the Crimson Slayer, and under the leadership of Kranon the Ruthless, they brutally retaliate against those they once protected.
But no one knows that the Crimson Army still has a group of loyalists who stick to the almost broken oath.
They are led by the former fourth company commander, Eli Dazaton.
Dazadon was a strong man by Space Marine standards, well-respected not only among his comrades but also among his lower-ranking brothers in the military, but he never coveted the power of Kranen.
position, although it is already a certainty that Dazadon will lead the Crimson Sabers in the future.
It was not until after the massacre in Umidia that Dazadon volunteered to follow Kranen to the Eye of Terror for a redemption expedition. However, after Kranen decided to betray the empire, Dazadon led his company of 59 warriors and left angrily, taking away a soldier.
A strike cruiser, the Pride of Rogon, was built and a secret base was established on the former home planet of Rogon.
Before leaving his former brothers, Eli Dazadon left a message to Kranon: They will also be Crimson Sabres, and if they meet again, it will not be a touching reunion of brothers——
Blood will be shed.
After breaking away from his former brothers who had transformed into the Crimson Slayer, the Fourth Captain vowed to hunt down and kill Kranon and save the Chapter's glory as penance when he returned to the throne.
The ideal is beautiful, but the reality is very skinny. To the empire, they are still rebels, and their former home star has long become a dead star. This small group of loyalists even have difficulty maintaining their warships, and many of them are damaged.
The equipment can only be dismantled on scrap ships, and the wear and tear of equipment can only be relied on picking up rubbish. Recruiting new recruits is a no-brainer.
Of course, they can also replenish themselves by plundering, as some warbands who have rebelled but not surrendered to Chaos will do, but Eli Dazaton has vowed never to follow the old path of Kranon.
Therefore, they can only struggle to survive in the dark galaxy. In order to survive, they have to wander around the edges of various battlefields like scavengers, searching for things that can be used.
This time they left their home star to go to the Pandora galaxy. On the one hand, the battle there was huge and they might be able to gain something. On the other hand, they also heard about the appearance of the Scarlet Slayer and planned to deal with those traitors.
However, because the performance of the battleships was seriously degraded, their speed was very slow. The battle had already been fought for a long time before they reached the Pandora galaxy, so they could only return in despair.
Unexpectedly, something seemed to be staring at me halfway.
"What kind of warship is this?"
Eli Dazaton asked as he stared at the screen. The scars on his face were piled up like mountains due to the tension on his face, and a service nail on his forehead shone brightly in the screen's fluorescent light.
The technician looked down at the data pad in his hand, which had a cogitator connected to it.
"This is a fleet. We have entered the nebula and cannot see more, but they are definitely watching us. They must regard us as enemies."
Eli Dazaton began to think about this dilemma, and then slowly said:
"I had hoped that we would be alone in this place. The Empire has not tried to explore this hidden area for many years. Now there is a fleet following us. Can we get rid of them?"
"Hard to say."
The technical sergeant on the side shook his head. Strictly speaking, he was not a technical sergeant, and he was not even an apprentice. It was just that he had a little knowledge of machinery—perhaps only at the level of an electrician.
"But I guess people don't like falling into the warp under fire, just because it's calm here doesn't mean I can get all the engines on this baby running in the same direction without more preparation time."
"Will we know if they are a threat?"
"There are at least two large capital ships there. Those things that fly to such a place will definitely have ways to deal with strangers."
"Then enter a combat state, wait for the opponent to slow down, and immediately find an opportunity to break away from the battle. Our situation no longer supports a real exchange of fire with the opponent."
Eli Dazaton did not continue to explore the identity of the other party, because it was pointless. Whether it was the Empire or something else, there was always a reason to fire on them.
They are now the loneliest group of people in the galaxy. To describe it as a candle in the wind is a relatively optimistic term. (Soshyan's start is not the worst. At least the ship is still a good ship and has a good reputation.
)
"As you wish, Captain."
The tech sergeant made some adjustments to the data pad as he spoke, and the ship's sounder sounded a warning, bathing the bridge in a crimson light.
The crew members ran through the corridors and came to their fighting positions.
Due to various battles and accidents, the current chapter only has 45 space warriors. Although the servants of the chapter have been familiar with war or the harsh space environment for a long time, for such a huge spaceship,
Its crew is indeed too small.
"Besides the main gun, what other weapons do we have that can fight against the enemy?"
Eli Dazaton then asked another question.
"We found a batch of torpedoes on a hulk before."
The technical sergeant's expression was a little ugly.
"It's very old. It uses high-explosive charges and armor-piercing warheads. I don't know how many years ago they were antiques. I don't know if they can be used. If I want to use them, I can get them into the launch orbit within an hour.
"Okay, I think you should stay on the bridge. Where else do you need people?"
As the fourth company commander, Eli Dazaton was also the fleet master of the previous chapter. Their ability to survive for such a long time is inseparable from his command skills.
However, it is difficult for a woman to make a meal without rice, and it is difficult to make up for a dilapidated battleship with any command skills.
