Outside the passage, two figures, one tall and one short, stood.
The tall one was a Space Marine in mottled bone-white power armor.
The slightly shorter one was a beautiful woman with short black curly hair and wearing a sealed uniform of the Mortal Auxiliary Army.
Fu Qinghai took off his helmet and looked up at the high dome.
The highest and farthest places are even beyond the sight of the naked eye.
What kind of spaceship would have such a huge space inside?
It is large enough to accommodate two teams of Emperor-class Titans to fight each other inside.
Fu Qinghai had never been to "Mountain Array" and "Monolith", the mobile space fortresses belonging to the Imperial Fists and the Dark Angels. He also didn't know how big "Mountain Array" and "Monolith" were. This wrecked space ship was already the largest interior space of a spacecraft he had ever seen.
Perhaps the answer can only be found in that ancient era of dark technology.
Looking at the four intelligent robots moving further and further away in the distance, Fu Qinghai took off the explosive assault gun, knelt on one knee, held the gun with both hands, and aimed at their backs.
Two seconds later.
Finally he put the gun down.
Chen Xue, who was standing aside, turned around and asked:
"What's wrong? Weren't you so full of fighting spirit just now, as if you were going to wipe out all these robots?"
Fu Qinghai shook his head: "Forget it."
"It's not wise to fight with the cybernetic robots in such an open and unobstructed place. Just now... just now, something else was affecting me."
Recalling the state of fighting continuously until he was overwhelmed, this was the second time it happened, and Fu Qinghai didn't know how to explain it to Chen Xue.
Even he himself didn't know the reason.
Fu Qinghai vaguely felt that this was related to his body.
After this mission is over, I will go back to the Dagger and ask Ogedei about it... Fu Qinghai thought secretly in his heart.
Once he calmed down, Fu Qinghai realized how dangerous the battle he had just fought against the three intelligent robots was.
If you make the slightest mistake, you will become a piece of meat patty that cannot even be lifted up.
At this moment, amid the rumbling sound of the device running, an explosion suddenly sounded.
The explosion was not loud. It came from the distant dome and echoed faintly in the empty space.
Fu Qinghai put his helmet back on and looked into the distance. With the help of the goggles, he saw a faint burst of fire on the huge device in the distance that was constantly running and looked like a pillar of heaven.
The rumbling sound of the device running is gradually weakening and slowing down.
As the sound of explosions continued, four intelligent control robots took steps towards the gravity siphon device and gradually disappeared from Fu Qinghai's sight.
They succeeded!
Fu Qinghai secretly clenched his fist.
It's worth my life of birth and death.
Fu Qinghai looked at the explosion flames that occasionally appeared on the towering pillar in front of him, and his heart was filled with mixed feelings.
This was the first time that Ogedei entrusted him with an important task. He first promoted him out of turn and then let him lead a team. This was a great trust for a Space Marine recruit who had just been promoted for less than a year.
Mission accomplished, countless enemies killed, one person killed in battle.
I wonder if Ogedei is satisfied with this result?
Fu Qinghai took a deep breath, then slowly exhaled, turned to look at Chen Xue, and asked:
"The mission is over. The crisis on the Sotharan should be resolved. Shall we withdraw?"
"No."
Unexpectedly, Chen Xue directly rejected the proposal.
Chen Xue looked up at Fu Qinghai. Her fair skin was covered with sweat, stains and bloodstains after the battle. Her messy hair stuck to the sides of her face, but her eyes were still stubborn.
Chen Xue said seriously: "Qingshan, it's not over yet. I need you to go deeper into the space wreck with me. Xiaolu is still inside. I must bring her out."
Fu Qinghai suddenly realized that this was the reason why Chen Xue had tried every means to get onto the abandoned space ship.
Rather than just wanting to kill enemies to earn assimilation points.
After all, it is too difficult to earn points in a cruel universe like Warhammer 40K, and you must do your best to survive.
Chen Xue directly and clearly asked Fu Qinghai for help. After a moment's thought, Fu Qinghai nodded in agreement.
Not to mention that Chen Xue had been with him through thick and thin along the way, using magic at full power, working hard and helping him a lot.
The key point is that Fu Qinghai himself was reluctant to leave this wrecked space ship full of dark age technology.
Since his promotion to Astartes, Fu Qinghai has been driven by various combat missions. He is either fighting and killing, or preparing for battle and killing, and has no time to take care of anything else.
If Chen Xue hadn't said that, Fu Qinghai would have almost forgotten that he was still a fucking reincarnationist!
Fu Qinghai thought angrily:
Old Emperor, I have truly devoted my life to you!
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Since the mission has been completed, Fu Qinghai is not in a hurry to return to the Sosaran. Anyway, with Chen Xue's dimensional gate, he can go back no matter how far the distance is.
Before setting out to continue exploring the wrecked space ship, Fu Qinghai and Chen Xue returned to the passage. Among the corpses scattered all over the ground, Fu Qinghai picked up a grenade launcher and a chainsword.
The bolt gun is held in the hand for long-range shooting; the chainsword is hung on the waist for close combat; the Vargan sword is carried on the back, so don't be afraid of psychic energy; two plasma pistols are inserted on both sides of the thighs. Although the firing rate is slow and the cooling time is long, one shot is still one shot, no matter how thick the armor is.
A special weapon, the explosive assault rifle, Fu Qinghai asked Chen Xue to put it back into the Sosarlan's armory, so that she could take it out and use it whenever she encountered a heavily armored unit.
After arming themselves to the teeth, Fu Qinghai and Chen Xue set out on the journey to the depths of the space wreck.
Along the way, Fu Qinghai thought carefully in his mind, reviewing and sorting out the cause of the whole incident:
after leaving the gravity well of the planet Loswell 7, the cruiser Sotharan was preparing to make a subspace jump. Then, the subspace jump was interrupted by the sudden appearance of a space wreck. The subspace began to become unstable and the original jump plan was cancelled. Vlahos, based on the principle of less trouble is better and Terra first, decided to ignore the group of space wrecks and drive away directly at sublight speed.
As a result, a gravity siphon device suddenly appeared on the space ship, and it was determined to suck the Sothalan in and merge into one.
So Vlahos sent Space Marines to board the ship, preparing to destroy this magical gravity siphon device before merging with the space hulk.
After landing on the space hulk, the boarding team first encountered the enslavers scattered throughout the space hulk, and then encountered the intelligent robot soldiers guarding the gravity siphon device.
In retrospect, from the perspective of enemy troop combinations, Enslavers are completely defeated by Space Marines without Think Tank units and Psykers. Space Marines without anti-psionic weapons can only fill the gap with human lives.
And if there are psychics among the Space Marines, the existence of intelligent control robots will restrain them to a certain extent.
At least the two major factions of psychic power - biochemical psychic power and mental psychic power - are completely ineffective against robots.
Psychic creatures and intelligent robots can coexist at the same time without being mutually exclusive.
This arrangement is truly painstaking.
There are several points that Fu Qinghai has not figured out yet.
Firstly, the intelligent controlled robots are still okay, but the slavers are simple subspace creatures. They are not demon apostles under any Chaos God, and they cannot be directly commanded by the four Chaos Gods. So how did the enemy's mastermind behind the scenes allow a group of slavers to appear on a space ship?
The second point is also the one that Fu Qinghai can't understand the most.
The Sothalan Moon-class cruiser is strong, but it is indeed not weak.
But it was just a conventional cruiser after all!
Robert Guilliman probably sent out at least a few hundred of these conventional cruisers to carry out the mission of disrupting commerce behind enemy lines.
A conventional cruiser is not even a strategic target. Is it worth the trouble to come up with such a complicated plan to deal with a tactical target of this level?
If the enemy is simple and crude, and directly dispatches a fleet with heavy cruisers or battleships to encircle and suppress the Sotharan, although it is a bit of a loss from the perspective of military value, the Sotharan will definitely not be defeated or escape.
Using such a complicated, meticulous, and interconnected plan... to target a Moon-class cruiser.
Who is behind this operation of complicating simple things?
Fu Qinghai really couldn't understand it.
Is all this a distortion of human nature or a loss of morality?
The reason behind it must be heartwarming.

PS: Thanks to your Jin Ke La, Qing Feng Ah l, the non-picky little bookworm, and three book friends for their donations. I decided to launch an activity in the book review area to "help useless authors write introductions and book titles". Let's help this loser figure out how to write introductions and change book titles so that he can become popular and attract more readers. I kneel down to thank you!
