Chapter 733: Assault on the Cyberk Fortress at the Border of the Fifth Defense Zone (1)

"Knights of the Tailin Family, and loyal attendant pilots.

We have just experienced a brutal initial battle, losing many heroic brothers.

Their sacrifice was not in vain!

They upheld their Oath with their lives, shattered the vanguard of the Alien, and guarded the Emperor's territory.

Their names shall be carved into the family's sacred monument of glory!

Now is not the time to wallow in grief!

Begin recovering repairable machine parts immediately, especially the shoulder armor module of the 'Oath'! The rest of you, assist in recovering the... remains of our brothers.

We must restore our combat strength as quickly as possible! The Alien will not give us much breathing room! For the Emperor! For Tailin! Regroup!"

Following the morale-boosting words of Commander Saide, a chorus of firm responses rang out across the Knight channel: "For the Emperor! For Tailin! Glory is my life!"

In the center of the battlefield, Sergeant Kafanoqi crouched beside the relatively intact arm wreckage of a giant assault soldier, his Power Armor fingers brushing over the broken base of a Power Greatsword.

The Tech-Sergeant's scanner emitted a sharp alert tone.

"Sergeant, look here."

The Tech-Sergeant pointed to an unusually complex internal structure on the scanning screen.

"The design of this energy conduction path and miniaturized reactor... is far beyond any Alien technology we have encountered so far.

And the residual readings from this Shield Generator... the peak intensity is shockingly high, and the recovery speed is abnormally fast.

It is just a pity that their materials are too poor; perhaps the material level of this planet is not high."

Kafanoqi looked silently at the fractured surface that shimmered with an eerie luster and spoke.

"The analysis is very useful. Hand all the data over to Father; Father will surely be satisfied!"

"Understood."

First Defense Zone main building.

After the Sage Cube received the battle report from the SG-9 Region, streams of blue data began to flow.

"Strange, according to the previous analysis of the Super Soldiers, the existing Humans on this planet are no longer sufficient to support this many Super Soldiers!"

As it spoke, the video footage sent back from the SG-9 Region appeared before the Sage Cube; as it observed the Super Soldiers wearing gray-white Power Armor and dark metallic Power Armor, the data streams on the surface of the Sage Cube began to fluctuate.

"Analysis error: the birth of Super Soldiers is not as low-probability as previously speculated. It is highly likely that the Xiuluo Holy Indigenous have mastered some method to increase the birth of Super Soldiers in the last two years.

Furthermore, their tactical coordination makes it difficult for ordinary Cyberk soldiers to cope; their combat experience is very rich, as if it were directly imprinted in their brains.

They also have some additional mecha-type weapons; although their size is small, they did not cause a crushing situation when facing the giant soldiers. Ultimately, it is because the connecting materials on the giant soldiers cannot be further improved.

If the elemental power of the Elemental race were refined, could a more solid material be extracted? The base in the Fifth Defense Zone could conduct experiments.

However, their losses are no less than those of the giant soldiers. What is uncertain now is the production volume of the opponent's mecha and whether it will affect the war situation."

Thinking of this, the Sage Cube began to pull several core S-class Cyberks into its own channel within the Public Consciousness Network.

"Respected Sage, we pay our respects to you."

After S-64A and the others expressed their respect to the Sage, the Sage explained its thoughts.

"The results and analysis of the SG-9 campaign have been shared. A key variable has appeared among the Humans: an unexpected number of 'Super Soldiers' and new types of mecha units.

The weapons of the new mecha units can sever the joints of our giant soldiers; defensive reinforcement of the joint positions is required.

In this campaign, the number of Super Soldiers in one Human unit has increased more than tenfold compared to when Super Soldiers were last discovered, and they have clear divisions of labor, tactical coordination, and are very rich in combat experience."

Just as the Sage finished speaking, S-16A said in the Consciousness Network.

"Respected Sage, the number of giant soldiers has already reached our previously expected quantity. To perform defensive reinforcement on the joints of all types of giant soldiers, the time required is very long..."

"Wait, the base in the Fifth Defense Zone has also discovered traces of Human troops, and the number of Super Soldiers is not small either. It seems there are also two special Super Soldiers. Have the Humans implanted bird genes into their bodies?

That side has already activated the communication jamming device, preparing to... the Fifth Defense Zone communication has detected an anomaly, communication disconnected, reconnection failed."

The data streams on the surface of the Sage Cube stagnated. At this moment, it did not expect that these Humans would actually counter their communication jamming device.

It is as if these Humans have undergone an overall update in recent years, beginning to develop rapidly and improving their military level significantly.

"Have the bases near the Fifth Defense Zone send troops to the Fifth Defense Zone, including giant soldiers.

Furthermore, upgrade the weapons, equipment, and Combat Modules of the soldiers who did not participate in the war; the tactical behavior of those Super Soldiers must be restricted.

In addition, the Pale Thunder-type soldiers must also undergo module updates according to the latest intelligence and enter their second field test."

"As you command, Sage!"

Fifth Defense Zone XK-6 Fortress.

Dry, scorching wild winds whipped up yellow sand, which blew against a military fortress.

On the sentry tower on the perimeter of the fortress, the Sensor Array of the Cyberk soldiers suddenly emitted an urgent alarm!

Optical lenses zoomed frantically, piercing through the sandstorm that blotted out the sky and sun.

Energy readings surged wildly on the tactical screen; the source was unknown, but the speed was extremely fast!

"High-speed unknown object detected approaching! Quantity... one! Energy signature... abnormally powerful! Model unidentified! Warning! Warning!"

The mechanized alarm sound echoed inside the sentry tower.

However, before the alarm sound had even faded, destruction had arrived!

Hundreds of deep-red figures leaped down from the violent, dusty sky!

The leader, whose figure was the most majestic, had wings flowing with holy radiance behind him; every flap stirred up a gale that dispersed the dust!

He held a simply styled Power Spear, his deep-red Power Armor and the pure wings behind him shining brilliantly in the sandstorm.

"For the Emperor! For Humanity! Purge the Heretic!"

Sanguinius's voice was full of power, instantly igniting the fanatical battle intent of all the Blood Angels Space Marines!

"We shall not fail the blood of Sanguinius!"

They followed closely behind Sanguinius, their Bolters spitting tongues of fire, their Chainswords emitting a roar, as they descended upon the outer defensive line of the Cyberk base!

Almost at the same instant, a dull, thunderous sound came from the ground on the other side of the base.

Vulkan wore the Dragon Scale Power Armor, with ancient runes engraved upon the armor.

He gripped a Warhammer that matched his physique, the hammerhead wreathed in a faint glow.

"This battle will liberate Human Civilization! Advance!"
