The friendly forces retreated, and the mortal servants such as the Blood Slaves passed through the Space Marines and rushed towards the core area of the fortress.
Some Space Marines from the Blood Angels Chapter or its sub-chapters remained.
"When are we going to retreat to the back?" The company commander of the Blood Knights ran over and asked Karan.
Karan did not respond immediately, but looked at Foros.
The Weeper, who is armed to the teeth, should not stay here now, but should immediately go to Dante's side, follow his arrangements and participate in the defense of the core area.
But here stood Foros, with his men.
"You should withdraw first." The Blood Knight Captain looked at Foros, "The core area is more important."
"We will retreat." Foros looked at the swarm of insects rushing ahead, "After the last mortal runs past me."
The company commander sighed helplessly, turned around and shouted to his subordinates: "Get ready to fight!"
All Space Marines at the front of the central passage are ready to face the swarm's impact.
Foros sent orders to Tessa to teleport down the Chapter's servants and resupply all Space Marines present.
The Storm Lady detached from the dimensional space and reappeared in orbit, and tens of thousands of servants carrying large and small boxes were sent to the ground.
These servants began distributing ammunition to the Space Marines, and some even went to replenish the missile launcher-equipped warriors in the Lamenter battle squad with new missiles.
The new missiles are not conventional high-explosive missiles, but incendiary missiles specifically designed to deal with the Zerg.
After the missiles were loaded, the Space Marines equipped with missile launchers focused their fire on the forward swarm, and the servants reloaded them again.
The missiles created a sea of fire among the swarm.
Those cannon fodder knife bugs will be burned to ashes if they are touched by sparks, but the number of knife bugs still seems to be large.
Foros estimated that there must be at least hundreds of thousands of knife bugs in the insect swarm in front of him.
The war beasts such as warrior bugs were also burned a lot by the flames, but they seemed to be smarter and would not directly go through fire and water. After thousands of them died, they began to circle around.
The number of samurai bugs is so numerous that they can’t even be counted.
Fortunately, there is artillery in the fortress. After a few test-fired and calibrated cannonballs exploded in the insect swarm, a rain of cannonballs fell into the insect swarm.
After providing supplies, the mortals teleported back to the flagship, and the flagship escaped into the dimensional space again.
At this moment, Foros suddenly found that everything in his field of vision had become very dark: "Is it dark?"
"No." Karan pointed to the sky, "It's just that there are too many bugs."
Foros raised his head and looked at the sky. The swarm of flying insects that covered the sky had just entered Baal and were swooping down towards the fortress.
Tens of thousands of anti-aircraft weapon positions in the fortress began to fire into the sky, and the ground was illuminated by the fire of anti-aircraft weapons.
Karan forced a smile to Foros: "Welcome to Baal."
After saying that, Karan rushed towards the oncoming warrior bug.
All Space Marines present began to engage the zerg swarm.
Chapter 262 Tyrone’s cruel thing
The battle lasted for five full hours, and all the blood slaves and wounded were evacuated to the core area of the fortress.
The Space Marines on the central passage completed their mission and began to retreat in batches.
The first to retreat were the sub-group except the Lamenters.
The swarm of insects was as huge as the ocean, and Foros, who was fighting in the vast sea of worms, even had to use long-range weapons to save his energy.
Some of the Blood Knight Space Marines were charged with black rage and rushed towards the swarm of insects regardless of risk, and then were swamped by the swarm and disappeared without a trace.
Foros never allowed his subordinates to rescue those Space Marines who fell into the Black Rage, because once they fall into the Black Rage, there is no way to save them and there is no possibility of returning to normal.
After using his plasma pistol to kill a samurai bug that jumped at him, Foros turned to look at the situation of his men.
A guard was using an assault cannon to shoot at the surrounding insect swarms. He was so focused on fighting the insects that he didn't notice a friendly soldier appearing behind him.
The ally had a ferocious expression, his eyes were blood red, and he picked up the power sword and stabbed the guard in the back.
Foros raised his hand and shot the friendly soldier into pieces.
"Pay attention to whether friendly forces are falling into black rage." Foros reminded everyone in the group's internal communication channel.
"They should be more desperate to attack the enemy. Why would they attack us?" a recruit who had been in the regiment for 60 years asked in surprise.
There was silence in the battle group's channel, and no one answered the recruit's question, because it involved defects in the gene seed and the Gene Father's bloodline.
"Black Fury, no one taught you what Black Fury was when you joined the group?!" Foros scolded sternly.
This was the first time the recruits had seen such a harsh attitude from Foros.
Karaon killed two samurai bugs blocking the way and ran to Foros, standing behind him to face the bugs that were surrounding him.
"You need to evacuate now."
"We are members of the parent group, and we should stay until the end."
The sound of Karan's words reached Foros's ears.
"You guys evacuate first." Foros said firmly.
When all the descendants of the angels came to support Baal, and when there were no rules and they just obeyed the orders of the mother group based on favors, the mother group certainly had the responsibility to stay and take on the most dangerous tasks.
But Foros believes that the Weeper is an exception.
The brothers of the parent group stayed behind, wearing regular armor and using bolt guns in their hands to defend themselves against the swarm of insects. Then a large group of Weepers wearing Terminator armor turned their backs to the battle and ran backwards with heavy steps.
Foros believed that if this scene appeared on the battlefield, the Weeper would not be qualified to have so much sophisticated equipment.
"Okay." Karan had already heard about the fact that the Weeper was a jerk, so he didn't say much and directly ordered his company to evacuate.
The Blood Angels fought and retreated, their positions filled by the Lamenters.
Karan did not leave with his men, but stayed to fight alongside Foros.
Karaen observed these sub-band brothers during the battle and found that they were particularly good at fighting alone.
"Tyrant!" Foros reminded Karan.
A tyrant emerged from the swarm of insects and rushed towards Foros together with its guardian insects.
Some of the tyrant guards also held bone knives, while others had living biological weapons.
When they rushed over, one of Foros's guards was cut in half by the tyrant, and another guard was blown to pieces by green cannonballs fired by living biological weapons.
These creatures can evolve to the point where they can destroy Terminator Armor just by relying on their own organic bodies.
Karaan rushed forward side by side with Foros, holding a war hammer in hand. The two dodged the biochemical shells on the left and right. Just as they were about to fight the tyrant and the tyrant's guards, these big and strong insects were suddenly crushed into meat scraps.
Foros turned his head and looked behind him, where stood a technical sergeant holding a gravity staff.
The supplies given by the Lord of Tyrone include not only conventional weapons, but also some of the Tyrone's ruthless gadgets, which are powerful and dangerous.
On the way to Baal, after a Space Marine used the Gravitational Scepter without instructions and accidentally crushed his own legs, Foros prohibited anyone except the technical sergeants from studying the use of those Talon equipment. .
At this time, Foros thought that his technical sergeant was very good. At least he was not crushing himself and Karan to death, but the bugs ahead.
The death of the tyrant did not plunge the sea of insects into chaos. It was obvious that other synaptic creatures had taken over command.
"Stay away from the swarm!" Techmarine yelled at Foros.
Foros and Karaan immediately retreated.
The technical sergeant placed the scepter on the servo robot arm behind his back, took out a large telescope from his backpack with both hands, and placed it in front of his eyes to observe the sea of insects ahead.
The tech sergeant looked as far as he could and pressed the red button on the scope.
A rift opened above the worm sea. The Storm Lady's weapons hidden in the dimensional space automatically fired. Two particle light spears emerged from the rift and fell into the worm sea.
It is impossible to calculate how many bugs were killed by these two light spears. The impact they produced spread to Foros and Karan. The two warriors wearing Terminator armor were almost overturned by the impact. They had to insert their weapons on the ground to stabilize them. Live the body.
At this time, all members of the parent regiment had evacuated, and Foros took advantage of the two light spears to delay the attack of the sea of insects to issue a retreat order.
All the Wailers gathered together and fought and retreated.
The Angel Fortress is not only an outer wall, but also an inner wall surrounding the core area.
Friendly forces that had previously evacuated or had been deployed on the inner wall were ready for battle, pouring firepower into the sea of insects.
The door to the inner wall was open, and a golden figure led all the Space Marines of the Blood Angels to stand outside the door, ready to greet the weepers.
Foros recognized the golden figure at a glance as Dante, the leader of the Blood Angel Chapter.
On the way to the city gate, Foros observed that Dante's body was not motionless, but trembling slightly, and immediately realized that he might be injured.
Dante, who came out to greet them personally, waved to the mourners.
Foros withdrew his eyes and focused on the battle in front of him. He was located at the rear of all his subordinates.
The Weeper Chapter and Karan retreated while fighting, and gradually came to the city gate.
Before entering the core area, the pursuers had to be blocked outside. The technical sergeant was one step ahead of everyone else. He took out a grenade from his backpack and threw it into the insects that were chasing Foros.
The grenade did not explode, but instead created a zero-gravity area.
Both the knife bug and the samurai bug moved their limbs feebly while rising slowly.
Foros's power armor was close to the ground to help him stabilize his body.
The technical sergeant who threw the grenade turned around and ran back, checking the grenade instructions as he ran.
After running two steps, the technical sergeant suddenly stopped and looked at Foros in astonishment.
At this time, the gravity field suddenly changed, and an extremely powerful repulsive force spread from the center to the surroundings.
Foros, Karan, and the technical sergeant who stayed behind were all thrown away and fell into the city gate, while the insects chasing them were knocked away by the repulsion.
Everyone successfully retreated into the core area, and the door was immediately closed.
Chapter 263 Gift
The battle continues.
The weepers were placed in a safe place by Dante to rest.
Foros and the captains of the Lamenters followed Dante to the meeting hall.
