Malakin roared excitedly, and the deck beneath his feet trembled. He also felt an impatient dry heat coming from his body.
At the same time, the Hive Mind also reacted as quickly as possible to form a tight barrier with small biological ships. While blocking the firepower of human ships, it also worked hard to extract the large biological ships from the influence of the gravity well. In fact, Tai
The Lun biological ship has organs that can offset the influence of gravity, but this organ requires a large amount of biomass to operate. If not necessary, they usually choose to slowly escape from the planet's gravity well, but this time the human empire ship came too fast.
Soon.
It just takes time to activate the organs, and it also takes time for them to escape after activation, because large biological ships are gathered in the low orbit of the planet, trying hard to absorb the feast below, and it will be impossible to quickly escape after being connected to the giant capillary tube for a while.
Just when the Tyranid Hive Fleet fell into brief chaos, a series of torpedoes hit the small biological ships, and the subsequent metal storm instantly created a death zone stretching hundreds of thousands of kilometers in orbit.
Malakin did not intend to attack from a distance this time, because the Tyranid Hive Mothership was too large. With the firepower of the core fleet, he had no confidence that he could destroy it. The only way was to get close and use
Use whirlpool torpedoes or other destructive weapons to send it away, and to do this you must break through its guard group barrier.
In this huge gamble, Malakin does not intend to use other people's things as a bet, because he himself does not guarantee a chance of winning. Therefore, this task will be fought between the two ships of the Lamenter, the Mother of Tears and the Daughter of Storms.
Barge execution.
Even if he failed, Soshyan must have returned to the fleet by then, and he could still use the fleet power at hand to complete the battle.
This is not recklessness, but revenge. Malakin wants to avenge those battle brothers who fell into the Tyranids' maw!
"Storm Girl! Prepare to attack immediately!"
Facing the raging firepower of the human fleet, the small Tyranid fleet creatures were forced to give up some of their speed advantages in order to protect their mothership. The wreckage of the destroyed creatures was floating around, while they spit out bio-plasma and bio-torpedoes, and
Acid liquid crystals also continued to streak across the void.
Malakin's quick eyes swept over the picture of the command platform, and various tactical scenarios flashed in his mind. He quickly discovered a gap in the Hive Fleet, which was not fatal, but was enough to allow two battle barges to pass, and this was
goals they need at this stage.
"Son of Mars, Expedition Glory, Triumph, aim at the target I marked, Abyss Hunter, Silver Redemption, use light spears to drive away the enemies in that direction, frigate squadrons 19 and 23, clear the right flank."
Then, he locked the target rune on a biological battleship, which was located slightly away from the center of the insect swarm.
"It's now!"
The swift Mars-class battlecruisers galloped above the Mother of Tears and opened all the weapons they had. The salvos of the three Ryza-type Nova Cannons were astonishing, and deadly plasma cannonballs were fired at the Hive Fleet.
A terrifying plasma storm was set off, and hundreds of small biological ships were crushed in the storm, followed by a series of lasers and torpedoes that passed through the void and penetrated into the body of the biological battleship.
At the same time, a large number of fighter planes came forward to fight against the small Tyranid creatures, and the lasers and missiles from both sides intertwined with brilliant light.
Under the volleys of three battleships, the Tyranid Kraken marked by Malakin had its carapace shattered, its internal organs thrown out, and it fell convulsively into the atmosphere.
At the same time, the cruisers and frigates formed two diagonal lines, passing the Tyranid creatures sideways, and used powerful firepower to blow the biological battleships into pieces.
But the Tyranid counterattack was by no means weak. Frigates and destroyers continued to explode and even lose power during the attacks of Tyranid biological plasma and biological torpedoes. Some unlucky ships were even penetrated by biological capsules on the deck.
Then a large number of warrior bugs spurted out from inside, and screams and sounds of fighting echoed in the communication network.
Even more deadly were the Tyranid impact ships equipped with crushing claws and predatory tentacles. The Moon-class cruiser Prodigal Son, belonging to the Astral Knights Chapter, was entangled in the tentacles of a hive battleship. The Prodigal Son immediately destroyed all
The ship's weapons were turned on and fired fiercely directly at the creature's tentacles. At the same time, the frigates near the Prodigal Son also continued to attack the tentacled monster.
Soon, the biological ship lost its power and twitched and floated away, but its tentacles also tore off a spire and a turret of the Prodigal Son.
When the Prodigal Son tried hard to return to the queue, three more biological battleships caught up with it. One of them swam directly towards the battleship. The energy field flashed on the open three-petal maw. The huge biological electric shock even caused the battleship's shield to collapse.
There was a short circuit, and then the battleship was directly bitten in two from the middle, and was torn into pieces in the subsequent explosion.
At this time, the Mother of Tears and the Daughter of the Storm had broken away from the formation and were sailing side by side, like two knights rushing towards the enemy formation. The powerful artillery fire from the rear battleships had cleared their way. On their flanks, the frigates were passing by quickly.
, diverting more Hive Warships away from the charging route of the two battle barges.
However, this hive consciousness is surprisingly cunning. It may have seen through Malakin's idea and ordered the small ships to ignore the harassment of the frigates. A large number of living warships formed a wall of flesh in front of the accelerating charging battle barges, blocking them.
A desperate attack on the hive mothership.
"Live up to Sanguinius!!"
Malakin shouted on the bridge. He was rarely so excited, but after that rebirth, he felt that it was becoming increasingly difficult to control his emotions.
It was as if there was a fire rolling violently deep in his soul.
Suddenly, the bioplasma launched by Tyranids hit the void shield of the flagship, causing ripples to bloom. The two battle barges had already completed their acceleration. Such firepower could not stop them. They would pierce through the flesh like bullets.
Penetrates Tyranid's barrier to smaller creatures.
But to Malakin's surprise, those small creatures actually dispersed.
"What!"
As a result, a new type of Tyranid biological ship appeared around the hive mothership. These warships have long and straight bone armor shells, accounting for one-third of their total length, with biological plasma sprayed from the rear, and the rest are long
Organs full of tentacles are like giant living missiles.
"Concentrate fire on my mark!"
Malakin felt bad. If these ships collided with the battle barges, and if they exploded due to their size——
