Chapter 2907 The Son of Sanguinius, Never Too Late
As the defense line shrinks, the edge of the cliff that was originally guarded has been abandoned, because on the gentle slope on the other side closer to the Snow Palace, giant spores and flamethrowers slowly come into view carrying symbiotic living cannons.
Their swaying gait makes their high, protruding backs sway, making them look like strange, bumpy ships with a bunch of claws swinging up and down.
No one knew that the Tyranids could bring such giant beasts into the mountains, but their presence forced the original defense line to change.
Although the Baneblade Team and the Air Force have been trying to bomb these creatures and kill them before they can fire their living cannons, as more Tyranid flying creatures enter the battle, the war in the air is no longer so one-sided.
Now, flying monsters from all over the world are flocking to the last place on the planet where fighting exists, and the air force has to deal with more enemies in the sky.
In this case, it will be difficult for the Tyranid artillery to clear them out in time.
When the sporozoites are launched, the spores rain down on the snow palace. Even amidst the noise of the battle, the moist crackling sound accompanying each sporocyst landing is extremely clear, which symbolizes a group of insects being dropped on the defense line.
superior.
"Hang in there! I'm with you!"
Bahram, whose armor was already covered with scars, was still trying to boost his morale, but another wave of insect swarms flooded into his field of vision. The mountain-like insects were twisting and squeezing each other, as if they were an organic and complete individual surging.
charge.
"Company Commander! Heaven!"
Hearing Jacob's voice, Bahram looked to the sky. Although the living battleships of the Hive were hidden outside the lifeless atmosphere and could not be observed with the naked eye, his helmet's eyepiece was able to mark their outlines on his retinas.
.
I saw a fiery trajectory passing through the high-altitude clouds, and the burning debris fell like meteors, and there was only one possible source of these debris - it could be that the Hive Warship was killed and disintegrated.
As time goes by, the meteor shower becomes more and more intensive, and the thick spore clouds are burned away and replaced by larger burning fragments, some of which even look like the fallen zodiac beasts from mythology.
Thick smoke and flames rushed through the sky and fell to the ground. At the same time, countless undeveloped insects fell from the holes in the fighter plane to the ground and turned into pulp.
"Reinforcements are coming!!!!"
Even Bahram, who has always been calm, his voice trembled with excitement and he raised the broken-horned evil star.
"The fleet is coming! We win!!!"
Whether they are Astartes or mortals, they are cheering excitedly at this moment, not only because there are more and more such wreckage rolling towards the ground, but more importantly, this battle has lasted for a full 34 standard Thai seconds.
Lari, hope finally appeared.
Even Soshyan walked out of the command center, raised his head and looked at the sky, and said to the people around him easily:
"I said, Brother Malaki will not let us down. While brothers and comrades are waiting for them, the heirs of Sanguinius will never be delayed!"
"Instruct the core fleet to change course to 380 degrees, port side level minus 11 degrees."
When the last living battleship the size of a cruiser died, its body also disintegrated in the flames caused by friction with the atmosphere. Malakin looked away, and his calm voice echoed in the bridge.
"All engines running at full speed! Maximum speed!"
Behind the flagship Mother of Tears, the vanguard fleet led by the battle barge Daughter of the Storm also broke through the encirclement of the Hive Fleet. However, three battleships were unfortunately sunk, two of which were destroyers and a Dreadnought-class light vessel.
Cruiser, at this time, the planet's low-altitude orbit was covered with broken metal debris and bloody void monster corpses, but the aftermath of the massacre had not yet dissipated.
In this attack, Malakin also divided the fleet into three battle groups, but their tasks were different. One battle group was responsible for containing the ships of the Hive Fleet in the outer orbit of the planet, and the other battle group was responsible for clearing the orbit above the Snow Palace.
The core battle group he led was to launch an attack on the Tyranids' hive mothership.
It would be best if the opponent can be eliminated. Even if it cannot be eliminated, it can still contain the low-orbiting Hive Fleet and create time for the withdrawal of ground troops.
From a distance, the power surrounding the planet is extremely terrifying. It stretches out like tendrils in the vast universe. Countless void creature living battleships seem to cover the stars. They are lined up in a long line.
The serpentine lines are coiled around the planet, like a giant python strangling its prey.
Now, one of the human fleets is attacking its snake tail, and the other is attacking its snake body, and Malakin is going to beat the snake head hard.
"Report, the location of the enemy mothership has been scanned."
As the reconnaissance officer sent a signal, the tactical instrument in front of Malakin showed the direction of the new target, and then the holographic image showed the outline of the target. It had a tight and curved shell, like the horns of a sea beast or a ram.
, the wide and grooved shell holes are filled with countless wriggling tentacles, each length is close to a cruiser, and its size is unprecedentedly large, almost the largest Malaki has ever seen.
The cosmic life form is almost a miracle, and even the largest battleship in the human fleet seems so small compared to it.
Malakin glanced briefly at the image, then turned his attention to the forces protecting it.
Hundreds of light spots, large and small, surround this behemoth, forming a spatial structure similar to a honeycomb.
"Don't worry about those large biological ships. They move slowly. And they are too close to the planet. They are actually very slow when being dragged by the gravity well."
Not long ago, Malakin led the fleet to eliminate the second tentacles of Tyranid. This battle was easier than the first time, with almost no casualties, because the planet was very massive. Although the Tyranid biological ship had various
Incredible means, but the most basic laws of physics cannot be completely circumvented. Under the influence of the gravity well of a huge mass planet, the speed of Tyran's large biological ships becomes abnormally slow, like fish falling into glue.
Therefore, Malakin chose to annihilate the more flexible ships first, and then attack the large warships, and the effect was unexpectedly good.
Therefore, in this place, he planned to repeat the same trick, first destroying the flexible battleships, and then dealing with the bulky and slow giant biological ships.
Soon, the core fleet locked on the targets to be annihilated first. These biological warships were generally only the size of frigates and destroyers. Facing the incoming human fleet, they immediately gathered together and prepared to launch a counterattack.
"All ships, bombardment formation."
The order was issued, and more than a dozen main battleships of the core fleet were arranged in battle formations. The core output force was an Oberon-class battleship and three Mars-class battlecruisers. The captains had received the plan in advance and planned it accurately.
They responded and came to their respective firing positions.
