After receiving astonishing intelligence and news from Judge Angelica, Soshyan immediately contacted Randall, who was also surprised.

Since Randall's side had more strength than Soshyan, the war in the southern continent ended completely a week ago.

But a new problem emerged.

Originally, they imagined that as long as they recaptured the northern and southern continents, they would immediately be able to counterattack the main continent via land and sea, but they underestimated the strategic vision of the escaped green-skinned warlord.

The greenskins were actually prepared and built a large number of armed ships. These warships were equipped with large-caliber artillery and rockets. Although they looked very crude, they were more than enough for Armageddon's "navy" which only had speedboats. This The last large surface battle ship on the planet

The ship was destroyed in a museum fire three thousand years ago.

At the same time, the green-skinned air force also began to patrol the sea leading to the main continent day and night, making "smuggling" extremely unrealistic.

This time, the battle situation immediately froze.

Although the empire holds orbital rights, it is really powerless against small and erratic targets, and its weak air power has also resulted in air supremacy being in the hands of the greenskins for a long time.

In order to further discuss the subsequent actions, Randall had to teleport back to the battleship, and then teleport from the battleship to Soshyan.

After struggling for a long time, the two finally met.

"Brother, how much truth do you think Angelica's words are?"

After listening to Soshyan's narration, Randall thought for a moment and said softly:

"I guess most of it is true, but I think there is something hidden about the purpose of their operation."

"Actually, I've heard such rumors too."

Talos, who was sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed, suddenly spoke. The reason why Talos was brought to this secret meeting was because his ability to foresee was very important in the next action. Randall also understood this.

And his evaluation of Talos was higher than Soshyan expected.

More importantly, Talos is the only person here who has experienced the Great Crusade. His understanding of the history of the empire can provide a basis for Soshyan's next judgment.

"The green skin empire back then was very extraordinary. You have also seen the virtues of the green skins now. I can tell you that the green skins at that time were very different from now. Not to mention the advanced technology, the organization was very high. I Did not participate in the battle of Ullanor, but participated in the outer planets

In the battle in the Ork System, I almost lost my life.... Can you imagine a group of five-meter-tall greenskins wearing power armor? "

Talos, who had nothing to do, did not wear power armor. Instead, he put on a midnight blue robe. All the characteristics of this son of midnight, from his pale face to his tenor-like voice, seemed to be designed to make him It blends in with the robe on your body.

Just like Randall's evaluation of him - this person will often express his opinions directly, and at the same time, he will carefully think about the message he wants to convey before expressing his opinions, and even occasionally has a sense of humor. This advantage is Quite rare among the Astartes.

"Why is this happening?"

Soshyan squinted at Talos through the white steam slowly rising from the tea cup beside his lips. Although the surrounding servitors who were operating the communication and data stations were only wearing short-sleeves, the actual air temperature still hovered at a temperature suitable for refrigerated meat. on the class level.

They were currently in the area at the top of the hive's spire, which was extremely cold because the power supply had not yet been restored.

"There are many rumors. Some say that this green-skin empire has inherited the legacy of an ancient race. There are also rumors that this green-skin empire is actually a doll controlled by the Eldar. But the most bizarre rumor is... "

"What is it?"

"I also accidentally heard that a certain reporter said that the tyrant of the green-skinned empire, like the emperor, was something close to the power of the subspace."

"What!?"

The shocked Soshyan subconsciously put down his tea cup, and out of the corner of his eye, he noticed a surprised expression on Randall's face.

"This...sounds incredible. I can't imagine any alien being able to rival the Emperor."

Talos shrugged his shoulders after hearing Soshyan's words.

"It was really bizarre. At the time, I thought the narrator was crazy."

"But you remember it, even after ten thousand years."

Randall suddenly spoke, seeming to be hinting at something.

"Why?"

"Well...because it was our father who saved me that time in the Ork Galaxy. Sevita was also present at that time. Although I fell to the ground and almost fainted, I still heard their conversation. Sevita Vetar asked what the outcome of this war would be, to which the Primarch replied 'It is a

In the decisive battle between false gods and false gods, the tide of subspace will decide everything', so I will always remember that bizarre rumor. "

"Interestingly interesting, then things get complicated."

Randall touched his chin, and his voice became very passionate, which was in great contrast to his usual almost calm tone.

"It doesn't seem like a coincidence that Horus built our primarch's tomb here."

"We have more real problems to solve."

Soshyan then spoke:

"That place is under the Hades nest. It is now being besieged by the green skins and is in danger, but we have no way to support it. If the green skins occupy it, it will take more time to take it back... But Time is not on our side, according to Astropath

We have reported that there are already Imperial support troops approaching, and other battle groups have responded to the request for help, including the Blood Angels Chapter. If we cannot make a quick decision, it will be inconvenient for subsequent operations. "

Upon hearing the words Blood Angel, Talos's expression changed slightly, but he immediately returned to normal.

Randall nodded in response.

Indeed, as Soshyan said, once external reinforcements intervene, many things will be inconvenient, especially in a crowded place like the hive city.

"If that doesn't work, consider using large-scale teleportation?"

After a few minutes of silence, Randall proposed the most feasible solution.

"Most likely not."

Soshiyang replied slowly:

"There is no large-scale teleportation array in the Hades nest. We can't teleport many people at a time, let alone heavy weapons. Moreover, the situation there is very bad now and it may fall at any time... If we send it at this time... If you invest your strength in it, you will only be involved in a long war of attrition.

, not to mention looking for tombs. "

In fact, there were some subtexts that Soshyan didn't say, but the other two people also knew it.

At present, only the Astartes can use teleportation, but if you go there now, you will have to fight a cruel siege with extremely limited power. That will inevitably cause huge consumption and casualties. Soshyan is not willing to send the soldiers into such a battlefield.

Maybe that sounds a little selfish, but now that Soshyan has to be responsible for a legion, he has to think even more.

"Can I make a suggestion?"

Talos suddenly spoke, regardless of whether Soshyan agreed or not.

"Perhaps we should take a closer look at Armageddon's terrain."

Like Soshyan, Talos once had a cup of hot tea in his hand, but he rarely drank it, apparently using it as some kind of hand-warming tool.
