Chapter 35 A loving father and a filial son
Looking at the enemy mothership with twisted tentacles growing out, all the Black Watch chose to retreat back to the coalition forces and encircle and suppress the enemies that had already boarded the ship.
Guilliman, who was charging at the front line, had already been surrounded by most of the World Eaters and Chaos Cultists, and was only able to deal with them thanks to the protection of the Primarch's Guards. However, it was also because Guilliman attracted nearly half of the firepower that the remaining soldiers were able to stabilize the defense line.
The bloodthirsty desire affects the Ultramarines. Unlike the Blackwatch, they do not have a strong resistance to the Warp, and the pollution from Khorne has interfered with their battles.
The Macragge's Glory had just attracted a huge amount of firepower, and most of the enemies had boarded the flagship. There were only them and a few remaining Black Watch soldiers here, but they had to hold on while the rest of the crew operated the ships to suppress the fire.
Keeping Hogg's words in mind, Guilliman found Lynn as soon as the frenzied soldiers appeared in the legion. As a true core member, Lynn had already learned the characteristics of Chaos from Hogg, and the Eldar and Ultramarines who did not have enough resistance were left behind.
The soldiers who had been disturbed by the chaos pollution were brought out, and the Black Light Cultists who followed the army began to perform rituals on the spot. Illusory tentacles were summoned, and the disgusting feeling dispelled the bloodthirsty rage.
The recovered Ultramarines and the Eldar provided fire support together, and the tough Blackwatch reached the front line, but there were still not enough people, and the two sides engaged in a fierce tug-of-war in the ships.
The World Eaters who boarded over were all real experts. The tall Chaos Warrior displayed amazing skills and killed the besieged Black Shield Guards with a single axe.
Without meat shields, the mortals were quickly killed, and the defense line that was stretched to the limit began to collapse. On the battlefield in the distance, the Astra Militarum and Chaos Cultists were fighting one-on-one in the passage.
At this moment, the returning Black Watch force joined the battlefield, and the enemies attacked from both sides went into a frenzy.
Guilliman, who was waiting for reinforcements, roared, "For the sake of humanity, kill these aliens."
"Fuck the alien bastards!!!"
"Waaaagh,"
With one sword he cut the enemy in front of him, and then Guilliman, who was already surrounded by alien corpses, rushed into the battlefield with his guards. The power of the Primarch could not be resisted by anyone in the real universe except the Great Demon.
Finally, under the continuous attacks from both sides, the enemy that broke through the ship was eliminated, but the casualties on our side were still heavy.
Numerous entire interstellar military units died. After all, in such a narrow ship tube, the fearless Chaos Cultists and World Eaters were too much for mortals to handle.
"Hogg, where are you?" Guilliman called his brother on the channel, but received no response.
Captain Ross Manderson walked out of the reinforcement team and reported: "Lord Guilliman, my father is still on the mothership opposite. He asked us to wait for the opportunity to retreat to the surface of the planet."
At this time, Hogg, who had returned to his original size, became the flesh and blood core of the Queen of Glory-class battleship. Most of the enemies on the ship died in the big move he had just used. For the next plan, Hogg needed more energy.
Remotely controlling the position of the Blacklight to attract the rest of the Chaos Fleet, as the distance got closer, Hogg used the Blacklight as bait like a fisherman, pulling the enemy's large forces towards him.
As a copycat Star God, Hogg has the ability to distort the real universe. Although he cannot directly extinguish the sun like the complete Star God, as long as the distance is close enough, the violent electromagnetic force will tear apart the remaining ships. The explosion of a mothership equipped with nuclear bombs is enough to tear open the encirclement.
The moment the Chaos forces appeared, Hogger understood that Khorne's target was him, and he wanted to stop him from changing Angron's fate. However, it would be too costly for 30K to break through the veil now, so he directly pulled a group of men from the future to surround him.
He had to hurry, as long as he was fast enough to save Angron and completely tear apart Fate. Just as he was about to seduce the remaining ships, footsteps were heard from the mothership occupied by Hogg, and a group of remaining World Eaters came in front of Hogg. Although these World Eaters had Chaos marks engraved on their bodies, they were calmer and did not look like bloodthirsty lunatics completely controlled by the Butcher's Nails. A Chaos Warrior with one arm exposed walked out of the team and saluted Hogg silently. This made Hogg feel very strange.
"Who are you? I have never seen World Eaters as calm as you!"
The silent warrior took off his helmet. The head implanted with the Butcher's Nail was so hideous, but he still showed a twisted smile:
"Respected Unknown Primarch, thank you for giving us a glimmer of hope. I beg you to kill that waste Angron and never let him fall into the hands of the Blood God again."
The kneeling warrior begged, and the World Eaters behind him knelt on one knee and took off their helmets one by one. Without exception, all of them had Butcher's Nails implanted in them, as if the living device was giving them pain and twisting their will.
"Ah, shouldn't it be about saving Angron?"
"My lord, it's meaningless. Our useless father doesn't deserve to live in this world. He betrayed us and became a real clown in the future. We are the future war dogs."
"Are you Kahn?" The unique attire and such 'filial' words reminded Hogg of a name.
"Yes, my lord. We are running out of time. We gained a moment of clarity when you occupied the entire ship, but His watch is still there. We will soon turn into bloodthirsty madmen. We will help you tear open a hole and buy you some time."
Looking at the group of World Eaters in front of him, Hogg was a little skeptical, but if they could really lure more ships, it would undoubtedly greatly reduce the subsequent resistance.
"I agree to your request. I will try my best to save my brother, but I need you to gather the remaining ships and get as close as possible, then overload the energy reactor to detonate the nuclear bomb." A spare detonator was handed to Kahn by the tentacle.
"As you wish, my lord!" Kahn picked up the detonator on the ground and ran to the bridge with the remaining World Eaters. After all, as he said, time was running out.
Sensing the distance of the Black Light, Hogg took out an assault pod from his pocket dimension. The tentacles began to retract, and the power claws opened a huge hole on the deck next to it. The assault pod was launched at a good angle and hit the Black Light, which was already scarred and passing by.
The World Eaters ships that were pursuing were ordered to stay close to the mothership, and just as they had done in response to the Gene-Father's call, the remaining World Eaters ships gathered next to the former mothership, the Conqueror.
According to the pre-set countdown, Hogg took out a detonator and silently calculated the time. If Kahn and the others failed, he would detonate it a second time.
Caressing the Conqueror's bridge, next to the hostess who had already merged with the ship, "It's time to end all this, just treat it as a boring and bumpy dream!"
The torture of the Butcher's Nails began to intensify with Hogg's departure, and his frantic thoughts disrupted Kahn's movements, but the Son of Red Sand, who had gotten a respite, would not succumb to fate.
"Angron, you loser, go eat shit!!!"
The button was pressed, and the overloaded energy reactor and nuclear bomb detonated at the same time. The violent flash and explosion brought destruction to everything nearby.
Putting down the detonator in his hand, Hogg severed the flesh and blood connection left on the Conqueror.
