Chapter 2105 The Savage Crucible
Even if he is not a technical sergeant, Azriel can tell from his appearance that this waste ship may be a gathering of dozens or even hundreds of ships. They are strangely fused together by the energy of the subspace. Only the emperor knows how many centuries the mutated waste ship has drifted in the torrents of the subspace. But it is certain that this evil existence composed of twisted metal, mutational demons and various rocks is a powerful weapon even if it cannot move. When it moves, it is a destruction of the world, and even the Incomparable Truth pales in comparison.
"Strange, with such a thing, how could Huron take it out at this time?"
Samuel, standing in the shadow behind Azriel, also expressed his doubts, and Azmodai answered him.
"It means that heretics didn't get this thing for a long time!"
Sappho nodded.
"It should be so. The commander of the Soshiyang War reminded us that the Red Pirates might have a powerful waste ship. I thought it was the kind of dead thing to be dragged by a barge, but I didn't expect it to be a 'live' waste ship."
“It’s big, strong, but very deformed.”
Suddenly, Azriel slowly expressed his opinion.
"The power to make it is very powerful, but it looks like a comprehensive mechanical teaching designer. It gives this weapon a tough body and hopes that it has as many types of weapons as possible to deal with most troubles. However, this also leads to it not having decisive weapons to arm itself. It has strong ability to fight independently, but in a decisive battle, the firepower it can exert may not be stronger than several battleships. Its firepower distribution is too even. As long as it is not crowded into the enemy group, most of the firepower cannot be effective. This is its flaw."
As he said that, Azriel reached out and drew an n-shaped line on the imager.
"The enemy takes the lead of the abandoned ship and forms a V-shaped commando formation. Then we form an n-shaped array around the Moon of Destruction, so that we can maximize the firepower of the waste ship. When the enemy goes deeper, the formation will change to an M-shaped, and the waste ship will face the Moon of Destruction, and the commander of the Soshiyang Battle prepares a big gift to the enemy in the Moon of Destruction."
Sappho's eyes lit up.
“What is it?”
Azriel smiled slightly.
"Look at it, you'll know then."
Soon, he curled his smile and turned to the command throne.
"A combat order is issued, and all units and ships are in their respective positions according to the pre-determined plan."
Based on the results of a series of scanner return, the huge array of meditators calculated the general strength of the enemy, 1 incomparable space waste ship, 2 battleships, 1 combat barge, 15 large/heavy cruisers, 50-60 medium-sized battleships, and 100-120 small battleships. Since the Red Pirates Fleet's models are very messy, there are even many transformed with civilian and merchant ships. Therefore, in terms of strength, it is not stronger and even slightly weaker than the imperial fleet with 1 Queen of Glory, 2 battleships, 1 battleships, 7 combat barges, 23 strike cruisers, 21 heavy/large cruisers, 14 light cruisers, and 92 destroyers/frigates.
The only variable is the huge and huge waste ship in space.
Azriel's order was transmitted to every warship through radio waves. Whether it was a veteran who had been through many battles or a new recruit who had just joined the battle group, every combat monk was ready to go, and every war machine was activated, just waiting for a command.
The captains all received instructions that the main force of the fleet would disperse into an n-shaped array in the form of several independent battle groups. The Moon of Destruction would become the protrusion of the array, facing the enemy's impact, and the fleet of the Dark Angels and the Inconvenient Truth were the few guards around it.
Soon, the enemy's fleet appeared within visual distance.
Under the command of the Supreme Tutor, the fleet lit up the signal, the engine roared in the prayer resounding through the power chamber, the Void Shield flashed and surrounded the ship in the middle, and the slogan of battle spread across the channel.
For the Empire, for the Caliban, for the Lion!
The first wave of firefighting between the two sides came from a swarm of aircraft.
On the Empire, the Dark Angel sent more than 100 Nifarem fighters and 150 Black Claw fighters. At the same time, there were 64 Imperial Navy's squadrons that mixed Thunder, Lightning and Furious conventional fighters, with a total of more than 1,200 fighters, and a 36 Star Eagle bomber squadrons with a total of more than 500 bombers. On the Chaos side, there were also a large group of Chaos Dragons, Hell Blades, and Hell Claw fighters, many of which were just made.
The fighter jets of both sides launched fierce close-range fighting in the cold and ruthless void, and the fighter jets were constantly being smashed to pieces or rolled in the void due to damage. However, there is no doubt that the empire has a quantity and certain quality advantage, and the Chaos Fighter that bound the demons was also fearless.
And just as they circled and chased, staged a dazzling dance of death, the huge warships were also slowly moving forward nearby.
The space waste ship Brutal Crucible set off the ship that guarded it incredibly small. The Red Pirates set off a very appropriate and standard V-shaped assault queue. The Brutal Crucible is both the spearhead of the assault and the shield of other warships. Because no one wants to take the first wave of the Imperial Fleet. Now there is such a large flesh shield there, so naturally try to stay away as soon as possible. This is why they must use the V-shaped array.
As the Savage Crucible gradually entered the range of artillery fire of the Imperial Forward Fleet, the Light Spear Battery, Heavy Artillery and some mysterious weapons awakened one after another, and the dazzling fire spots immediately illuminated the dark void.
The scene where the Queen of Glory fired even many Chaos Space Marines who had experienced the Great Rebellion felt frightened and made them recall some ancient battles that they could never forget. It was an absolute violence that could make the universe tremble.
No warship can face its edge head-on-
But today is destined to be an exception.
The savage crucible was bathed in a blasphemous light, with shields layered together, so that it could not suffer much damage while slowing down. Then it woke up, like an angry beast, every inch of its deformed hull firing rain-like missiles, rays, beams and psychic shells.
In less than five minutes, the Savage Crucible destroyed a fleet of frigates belonging to the Caliban disciples and the Navy's Moon-class cruiser Cangmang.
At this time, it was less than 500 kilometers away from Moon of Destruction, which was very close to space combat. At the same time, the Dark Angels fleet began to retreat, allowing the space waste ships to only exert their firepower as much as possible.
Seeing the Empire fleet retreat slightly, the Chaos fleet began to stir up, and they seemed to see the dawn of victory.
Countless strange-shaped warships joined the impact of the barbaric crucible, as if they were surrounded by the war leader's fart spirits, and the transformation from cowardice to courage was only a moment.
The huge Moon of Destruction had almost no weapons at this time, and the few turrets did not play any role at all. They were just an asteroid without resistance. This made the attacking Red Pirate Commander even more excited, because if this thing could be destroyed, it would undoubtedly be completed ahead of schedule.
