Although the fleet sent by the empire was powerful enough to suppress all demons and monsters, they still encountered various enemies along the way.
The incoming of Chaos has become the most common enemy. Almost every time they enter or jump out of the subspace, a Chaos fleet will attack them. Whether in the subspace or in the real universe, these enemies are like dog-skin plasters.
It's like the entire fleet is stuck.
And there are waves after waves, and it is impossible to stop them.
Fortunately, for the imperial fleet, it is not troubled by too many enemies, but the continuous battles will inevitably make the fleet's condition worse.
If it were not for the Forge Ark of the Mechanicum accompanying them, and the accompanying Mechanicus Priests who could repair the fleet's ships after the battle, I am afraid that the fleet would have lost some ships.
However, even so, when the fleet got out of the battle for the last time and pinned a Chaos fleet to death in the star sea, they still lost about one-third of the frigates compared to when they first set off from Terra.
One cruiser also suffered heavy damage and had to withdraw from the fleet and go to the nearby Mechanicum forge world for repairs.
As for the crew of the fleet, there is also a considerable reduction in personnel. About one-tenth of the personnel losses are mainly concentrated on the crew of the Imperial Navy. The losses of the Skitarii of the Mechanicus and the Space Marines of the Blood Angels are not very large.
There were only a few casualties.
"This trip is really tough, these chaotic bastards are just crazy!" A naval captain was complaining in the grand Gothic church-shaped bridge of the Mars-class battlecruiser.
The battles in this mission were not brutal, but they maintained a high level of intensity. Even as an officer of the Imperial Navy, he had undergone some physical modifications, and the battles that could last for several months still left him feeling overwhelmed.
Everyone in the fleet felt tired.
Especially in a previous battle, a group of Chaos Space Marines broke into the ship and attacked the bridge.
The colonel organized the sailors to resist very conscientiously. With the help of the Blood Angels who came to support in time, although they defeated the enemy, he also lost an arm in the battle and also lost many crew members.
Fortunately, the Mechanicus accompanied him, and he immediately enjoyed the high-level treatment of having an arm custom-made for him by the Mechanicus priests. Not only did he get a new prosthetic limb, but he also made adjustments to the modifications he had originally received.
Admiral Speyer didn't say anything when he heard the colonel's complaint. After this voyage, as the fleet commander, he was also very tired.
Fortunately, this journey of unknown purpose is finally coming to an end.
Thinking of this, the general couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and asked the colonel beside him: "How long does it take for us to reach our destination?"
"We have arrived at Mandeville Point in the target system and are waiting for new orders, Admiral." The colonel reported to Admiral Speyer. Just now, they were in the subspace and the Chaos Fleet were using macro cannons to hit each other, and finally got rid of it.
After those followers, they have arrived at the target galaxy of their trip.
According to the Emperor's Oracle they received, they will escort the strike cruisers of the Blood Angels Chapter to this system, and then the Emperor's Custodes will convey the next order to them.
Now that they have arrived, it's time to know what they are going to do after running all this way and making sacrifices. Gu
So Admiral Speyer turned and looked at the tall emperor statue behind him, which was as majestic and sacred as ever. After closing his eyes and praying quietly, the admiral had adjusted his mood and state, and loudly issued his order to the bridge.
The order: "The fleet remains on alert, everyone sails out of Mandeville Point, the damaged ships are repaired on the spot, and then sail to the Lagrange Point of the nearest planet first."
After saying that, he turned to look at the colonel and whispered to him: "Go to the cabin and ask our 'guest' what the next mission is."
"Yes, Admiral!" The colonel accepted the order. As the admiral's adjutant, he knew exactly what the "guest" the admiral was referring to was.
When they changed ships on Terra, they were already secretly escorted by the Imperial Guard, and there was a mysterious guest who boarded the ship before them.
According to the oracle received by the fleet on Terra, after they arrive at the target system, the Imperial Army will convey new orders, but apparently both the admiral and the colonel feel that the order should come from this mysterious guest.
However, before the colonel left the bridge, a mysterious figure in black robes came to the bridge, escorted by a group of Imperial Guards.
"Salute to you, distinguished sir!" Admiral Speyer hurriedly greeted this mysterious figure. While saluting, he was also secretly sizing up this mysterious guest.
Although there was almost no information visible in the black robe, the figure of the other party still led Admiral Speyer to judge that this was a woman.
The four Imperial Guards guarding her revealed more information.
You must know that except for the emperor himself, no one in the empire has enjoyed the treatment of imperial guards. Even the legendary Primarchs have never had imperial guards around them. Normally, each primarch is surrounded by
The Primarch Guards of the Founding Legion were responsible for the protection.
However, now, the imperial army has not only left the palace after 10,000 years, but has also appeared as a guard beside a mysterious woman, which revealed too much information.
However, Admiral Speyer did not have any ideas that he wanted to explore. As an officer who could be promoted from the most junior lieutenant to an admiral in the Imperial Navy, Admiral Speyer clearly knew that if he wanted to live a good life in the Empire,
If you want to live a longer and more stable life, don't ask about things you shouldn't know.
So he said nothing after saluting and respectfully waited for this mysterious figure to speak.
"You can call me Yida, I will convey the emperor's order." This mysterious woman spoke, her voice was full of vicissitudes and mystery, but she sounded like a young woman, as if she had experienced
Countless years have passed but he still remains youthful.
This kind of thing is not surprising. There are many ways to make people live longer in the empire. It is too common for imperial nobles to live for hundreds of years through life extension surgery. Even Admiral Speyer himself has undergone such surgery.
Otherwise, he would not have been able to serve on a warship for seventy years.
So when he heard this mysterious woman speak, Admiral Speyer just responded respectfully: "I will obey the Holy Order!"
"In this galaxy, there is a planet occupied by the Necron. Please get in touch with them." Zhida gave an order that shocked Admiral Speyer.
