Chapter 762: Warlord Titan (2)

~7 min read 1,271 words

The Cyberk side clearly had not expected the Human forces to be hiding such terrifying war machines.

The remaining Shield Guard Type giant soldiers immediately concentrated the majority of their shield energy toward the direction of the Titan Legion, and the light of their geometric shields became even more solid.

At the same time, more figures surged forth from the smoke and dust in the rear—the previously deployed Reconnaissance Type giant soldiers used optical camouflage and speed to cut in from the flanks at high velocity, firing their particle deconstruction cannons at the Titans' relatively vulnerable leg joints and sensor arrays!

Meanwhile, the Assault Type giant soldiers, in overload mode, brandished their high-frequency oscillating power blades and charged fearlessly toward the relatively smaller Warhound-class Titans and the Reaver Titans on the periphery, attempting to slaughter these threats in melee combat!

And the Shield Guard giant soldiers once again condensed their energy siege cones, aiming directly at the most conspicuous Warlord Titan!

Many energy beams flew toward the Warlord Titan, but were blocked by the void shield in front of the Warlord Titan.

"High-mobility target detected! Left flank! It's that kind of stealthy reconnaissance Alien Titan!"

The captain of the Warhound-class Titan spoke in a hurried voice.

"Turbo Laser Destructor! Intercept fire! Don't let it get close!"

Zzz! Zzz! Zzz!

The Warhound-class Titan's Turbo Laser Destructor fired with precision; the searing beams cut through the air, forcing a Reconnaissance Type giant soldier that was attempting to use optical camouflage to approach the Warlord Titan to reveal itself and dodge in a panic.

The laser beams left deep scorch marks on its streamlined armor.

"For the Emperor! Fire!"

A Leman Russ tank commander shouted over the comms channel; his tank was strafing the Cyberk Infantry drawn in by the Titan's firepower with its coaxial bolter.

An Assault Type giant soldier that had activated overload mode had cyan-white flames erupting from its back thrusters, and brandishing two power blades, it lunged at the relatively "petite" Warhound-class Titan at astonishing speed!

"Warning! High-energy melee threat approaching at high speed! Starboard! It's an Assault Type!"

Alarms blared shrilly inside the cockpit of the Warhound-class Titan!

"Evasive maneuvers! Full speed turn to the left! Prepare the plasma burst cannon!"

The captain roared, pulling the control stick with all their might.

The massive frame of the Warhound-class Titan erupted with an agility that belied its size, its engines roaring as it attempted to strafe.

Just then, a Shield Guard Type giant soldier used its solidified shield to block the direction of the Warhound-class Titan's strafe.

The Warhound-class Titan quickly changed its strafing direction, but the Assault Type giant soldier in overload mode had already arrived!

That massive power blade swung down rapidly.

Clang—Sizzle!!!!!!

The power blade hacked viciously into the junction between the Warhound-class Titan's left-arm Vulcan Mega-bolter and its shoulder armor.

The thick armor was forcibly cleaved open by the terrifying kinetic energy of the power blade.

Severed lines sprayed hot hydraulic fluid, and electric sparks jumped wildly.

The entire left arm, along with the weapon, instantly went limp, nearly destroyed.

"Left arm severely damaged! Weapon system offline! Power output dropped by 40%!"

The weapon operator's voice carried a hint of anxiety.

Violent vibrations caused sparks to shower from the instrument panel inside the cockpit.

"Plasma burst cannon! Point-blank range! Fire! Target the chest! Now!"

Amidst the violent tremors of the damaged machine, the captain pressed the muzzle of the remaining plasma burst cannon on the right arm against the chest armor of the Assault Type giant soldier at point-blank range.

Sizzle—Boom!!!

The explosion occurred at point-blank range! The violent plasma energy instantly tore apart the Assault Type giant soldier's chest armor shield, melting and shattering its thick armor.

The massive body of the Assault Type giant soldier was violently knocked back by the shockwave; its chest was a mess, billowing with thick smoke, and its movements were clearly sluggish.

But the Warhound-class Titan itself was also caught in the explosion; its right-side armor was severely deformed, and it stumbled backward, temporarily losing most of its combat effectiveness.

Just as the Warhound-class Titan struggled to stabilize its frame, the piercing alarm inside the cockpit reached an unprecedented peak!

"Ultra-high energy reaction detected! Multiple target lock! It's the siege cones! The Shield Guard giant soldiers' siege cones! Target..."

On the tactical screen, several deep-red light cone markers representing destruction were locking onto the Warlord Titan from different angles.

From its appearance until now, the Warlord Titan had already destroyed 7 Shield Guard Type giant soldiers, and countless Reconnaissance Type and Assault Type giant soldiers.

Although the Cyberk used various means of attack, the void shield in front of the Warlord Titan had been operating normally the entire time; the protection of the six sets of void shield generators was no joke.

The firepower erupted by the Warlord Titan caused the numerically superior Cyberk giant soldier cluster to show signs of collapse.

"Analyzing the weak point of the Human giant war machine; preliminary determination is the abdominal cavity, where there is an extremely high energy reaction; concentrate fire to destroy the reaction source."

The energy siege cones on the chests of several Shield Guard giant soldiers had already finished condensing; the blue-white light was blinding and intense, about to be fired.

The captain of a Reaver Titan noticed the objective of those Alien giant mechs; their laser burst cannon was firing with full force at the shield of a Shield Guard giant soldier that was condensing a siege cone, attempting to interfere.

The missile launcher on its head also fired everything in one go.

The Warlord Titan was also continuously firing to eliminate the Cyberk giant soldier cluster surging toward it; one by one, Cyberk giant soldiers fell under the Warlord Titan's powerful firepower.

"For the Omnissiah! May the Perpetual Machine Spirit protect us!"

Even that damaged Warhound-class Titan, dragging its broken body and spraying hydraulic fluid, charged headlong with unstoppable speed toward the cluster of Shield Guard giant soldiers that were condensing siege cones at the Warlord Titan!

The Warhound-class Titan fired its only remaining plasma burst cannon at full capacity during the charge!

The plasma spheres were its final roar, exploding into clusters of dazzling firelight amidst the Shield Guard giant soldier group!

This sudden, violent attack from the rear flank successfully attracted the attention of several Shield Guard giant soldiers; they were forced to interrupt their siege cone targeting lock, turning part of their shield energy to deal with this crazy collision, and one Shield Guard giant soldier even subconsciously turned the newly condensed energy siege cone toward the charging Warhound-class Titan!

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Several blue-white energy siege cones pierced through the Warhound-class Titan's body, which was already overwhelmed and whose void shield was about to overload.

One! Two! Three!... The terrifying torrent of energy easily pierced through the relatively thin armor, exiting from different parts of the body!

Immediately following—

Boom-rumble-rumble!!!!!!

The remaining energy core, ammunition storage, and overloaded engines inside the Warhound-class Titan underwent a sympathetic detonation under this devastating piercing damage.

A massive fireball, mixed with crimson flames, incandescent plasma, and pitch-black thick smoke, soared into the sky.

Scorching, violent streams of molten metal sprayed in all directions, accompanied by fragments of Titan armor, mechanical parts, and pipelines.

The shockwave generated by the explosion even briefly obscured the massive silhouette of the Warlord Titan.

This heroic Warhound-class Titan, along with its crew, turned into the most dazzling star on the battlefield during its final charge, using itself as the price to spare the Warlord Titan from a certain amount of damage.
