Boom!
The first large-scale airborne pod crashed into the middle of the rift valley, and the shock wave generated instantly overturned a circle of demons, followed by other airborne pods falling on both sides like dumplings.
Large airborne pods are generally used for airborne Dreadnought mechas. The impact produced when landing is much greater than that of a standard airborne pod. The huge demon beast had no time to dodge and was directly smashed into two pieces from the waist by the airborne pod.
"Set up a defense line on the spot and clear out all enemies around you."
Commander Kab Eric walked out of the hatch carrying a heavy bolter, held it with one hand and pulled the two-stage trigger. The strong muscles in his arm allowed him to easily suppress the explosive fire mode and empty the magazine in one wave.
The stumps and broken arms of the demons in front of Kab Eric were flying in all directions. Standard explosive bombs would advance twice when they came into contact with flesh or armor, which could effectively break through the armor and explode inside the enemy.
The demon with only the upper body left was still struggling to crawl out, but the next moment his head was stepped on by a wide foot, and it completely lost movement with a snap.
"Comrades, how do you feel?" Bukaret quickly gathered his team.
He held the submachine gun with his left hand and fired at a single point very sparingly. Whenever the cannonball hit him, the demons would instantly explode into a bloody mist.
"The familiar feeling is back."
"Me too."
"Hahaha, this thing is ugly, but it will still kill you if you get shot."
The Thunder Warriors discovered that bolt guns could effectively kill demons, and their hearts instantly felt relieved.
They will undergo mature stabilization surgeries at the lunar genetic modification base, and will be followed by recovery training and mental examinations arranged by Mark Master Malcador.
There was a time when they dreamed of returning to the battlefield, but now that this time has come, they have not squandered ammunition to vent their emotions. They have been struggling for food and clothing for many years, and the savings engraved in their bones are still difficult to erase.
"Each team reports the situation."
Although Commander Kab Eric announced some information about the demons in advance, he still had to confirm whether the team's status was normal during the actual battle.
As all the airborne silos were opened, six hundred Thunder Warriors quickly cleared away the nearby demons and cleared a vacuum zone in the rift valley.
"All four teams are here, it's over."
"Team Thirteen..."
The commanders of each squad immediately reported one by one from the internal command communication and consolidated the defense line on the spot.
"Very good, all squads should pay attention to support and open a passage for Ansel to support His Highness."
Kab Eric was guarding the front of the team, blocking all the demons pouring out of the Royal Court Lighthouse.
Alexander's honorary guard chief Ans El was wearing Thunder Terminator power armor, with an honorary guard flag fluttering in the wind on his back.
"Honorary Guards, rally to me."
Ansel himself came from the Terran nobles, and his loyalty to the emperor was unquestionable. Not only was his physical strength far superior to that of ordinary Thunder warriors, he had also participated in the knowledge training of the Imperial Army.
He has won the trust of Malcador and has the right to report directly to the Imperial Chancellor.
The Thunder Warriors move in a relatively narrow rift, and the Empire's most advanced heavy firepower allows them to easily suppress the demons.
Although the Rift Valley is a sliver of sky, it is still enough for three Baneblade tanks to pass side by side.
The Thunder Terminators, summoned by the honorary guard captain, quickly gathered in the direction of the exit of the rift. These warriors, who were far taller than the Astartes, were a complete massacre for the demons without a commander.
...
Glass plain, frontal battlefield.
"That devil over there, come and die."
Alexander wielded the chain sword with both hands and cut off the nearly ten-meter-tall bloodthirsty maniac in front of him with one blow.
The rotten smell spread on the two limbs of the bloodthirsty demon, and then they were burned by blue fire to remove all smells.
The great demon of Khorne, Ka'banha, could not bear the desire to fight, and heard loud noises and the sound of bolters coming from the rift. He immediately spread his bat wings and flew towards the archangel in the melee.
Because it clearly realizes that the decisive point in this war has emerged, which is the commander of the Space Marines, Sanguinius.
'Skull Reaver' Uzul temporarily replaced it as the demon commander to command the blood army, but the situation was on the verge of collapse and the meaning of command had been lost.
Uzul is the most warlike of demons. It especially likes to find the strongest warriors in the fiercest battlefields and challenge them to manly one-on-one battles with real swords.
In the end, regardless of whether the other party agrees or not, it will choose to rush over and start fighting directly.
When 'Skull Snatcher' Uzul heard that Alexander took the initiative to wave his sword at it to initiate a duel, he immediately jumped off the high platform without any hesitation, sat on the steel bull Kurtland and ran away.
As a master duel expert, it especially likes to play with its prey. It will always try to cripple the opponent's limbs first, and then walk over to grab the head and recite the sacrifice spell after the opponent collapses to the ground.
The victim's head will burn in its hands until all the flesh is burned away and only a smooth skull remains.
'Skull Snatcher' U'zul will skillfully unscrew the skull and hold it high for public display, then throw it into a sack and put it away, or sew it to the cloak on the back, so as to gain part of the power of the head owner during life.
Alexander was very aware of the habits of 'Skull Reaver' Uzul. When he heard the other party praising him and saw the familiar cloak, he already knew Uzul's identity.
The purpose of initiating a duel is to lure Uzul to take the initiative to fight, so that the chaotic blood army will completely lose its command, thereby greatly reducing the unnecessary losses of the Ninth Legion.
"Juster, you take over my job to clean up the demons."
Alexander inserted his spear of guard into the ground, using it as the center of the circle to clear out all demons within a fifty-meter radius.
After the blue fire, only ashes were left.
The demon's strategic intentions were completely destroyed by Sanguinius's pre-war arrangements, which was a complete mockery to the great demon Kabanha.
Kabanha underestimated the strength of the Ninth Army, and the Demon Beast sent to charge the center line was ambushed by First Company Commander Michel Lardoron in advance, resulting in the entire army being annihilated.
The bloodthirsty demons that arrived with it were also killed, but unfortunately not all were burned by Alexander's flames, and the remaining demons would still be resurrected in the subspace.
"Duncan Doppler, you leave your guard."
Castor did not refuse Alexander's instructions and led ten Terminator Custodes to assist the Astartes in wiping out the last batch of demons.
"Wow, I haven't seen such a brave warrior in many years."
Uzul came to Alexander alone with the Slayer in hand, his barbed tongue excitedly catching the smell of blood in the air.
After becoming a demon, Uzul's body was covered with hard red scales, and his vigorous muscles were rapidly filling with blood in preparation for the upcoming real sword duel.
"Don't worry, I will place your head in the most conspicuous place on the cloak."
Uzul pulled the reins and sat on Kurtlan, circling Alexander, watching the Imperial Guards frequently raise their submachine guns.
Duncan Doppler had ten Skyhawk Terminators evenly distributed around the duel arena, and each Custodian was recording with a recorder.
