Chapter 764: Titan-Class Titan (4)

~6 min read 1,118 words

The Close-in Defense System of the *Star Spear* and Jialun's own limit-pushing maneuvers allowed the chassis to perform a slight deflection.

The decomposition beam grazed the *Star Spear*'s severely overheated engine compartment and shoulder armor.

The high temperature instantly melted part of the external conduits, leaving charred marks, but fortunately, it avoided the cockpit and the core power source!

"Brother!"

Jialun looked at the two friendly signals that had instantly vanished from the tactical screen, as well as the wreckage of the attendant that had turned into scrap metal while shielding him; his teeth were clenched, and fury and grief intertwined in his eyes.

"Engine! Move for me! Even if you have to crawl, crawl over there and tear those iron-skinned bastards who are shooting from the shadows to pieces!"

"Tailin Family! Advance!"

Although Commander Saide's *Oath* was severely damaged, the Reaper Chainsword was still held high, its blade stained with coolant and metal shards, reflecting a grim, cold light under the glare of the artillery fire.

"For the fallen brothers! For the glory of the Emperor! Crush them! Glory is my life!"

"Glory is my life!"

The remaining Tailin Knights and attendants let out a roar.

Under the devastating fire cover of the Titan Legion and spurred by the grief and indignation of their companions' sacrifices, this scarred yet resolute Knight House once again transformed into a deep blue Sharp Blade, fearlessly piercing the steel defensive line composed of Saiboke Giant Soldiers and infantry.

Their armor was covered in scars, and their weapons might have been overheated, but that glory, born from ancient oaths and faith in the Emperor, shone brightly amidst the smoke and blood.

Soon, the Saiboke discovered a human suspected to be a commander and fired several energy beams at that human commander.

Facing the incoming energy beams, Horus merely raised the massive Power Claw on his left hand.

The Force Field Generator embedded in the claw activated instantly, forming a force field shield that distorted space.

Sss-sss-sss!

Several energy beams struck the force field shield; most of the energy was deflected and scattered into the surroundings, while the residual energy only left a few charred marks on the claw blades, failing to harm the Primarch in the slightest!

Horus did not even glance at those beams.

His cold gaze, burning with battle intent, locked onto that shield-guarding giant soldier that had just been heavily damaged in the leg by the *Star Spear* and was struggling to rise.

Ignoring the desperate gap in size, Horus exerted force through his feet, and the rocky ground beneath him exploded with a boom.

He quickly approached the fallen, massive body of the shield-guarding giant soldier, aiming directly at the damaged chest core that was flickering with unstable energy light due to the fall!

The Power Claw was raised high, and destructive energy gathered at the claw tips, emitting a hum!

Just as the shield-guarding giant soldier's Core Processor captured the image of this tiny target that radiated a lethal threat.

Crack—Boom!!!!

The Power Claw pierced deep into the shield-guarding giant soldier's thick chest armor and internal complex mechanical structure without any obstruction, tearing them apart violently.

The claw tips precisely grabbed the core whose light was rapidly dimming.

A muffled, thunderous sound erupted from within the giant soldier.

The core was instantly crushed and annihilated by the Primarch's strength.

The struggling movements of this war machine froze instantly, its massive body went completely limp, turning into a giant pile of metal emitting billowing blue smoke and jumping electric sparks.

Horus landed steadily on the edge of the breach in the giant soldier's chest armor.

Scalding molten metal and strange blue coolant dripped from the Power Claw.

Horus swept his gaze across the battlefield, and his voice resonated in the ears of every warrior through the Communication Device, carrying absolute authority.

"Do you see?!

The alien's steel and shields are no match for the Emperor's will and power! Advance!

For Humanity! Crush them!"

The shocking sight of the Primarch personally destroying a shield-guarding giant soldier, along with the Titan Legion's continuous, devastating artillery fire, greatly boosted the morale of the human army.

On a battlefield where Titans shook the earth and Knights charged into a Blood Bath, two Space Marine units efficiently harvested the lives of Saiboke infantry in the gaps and front lines of the battlefield, clearing obstacles for the giant war machines.

The positions of the Iron Warriors were not stationary.

Under Kafanoqi's command, the advance of the Iron Warriors Space Marines was steadily moving forward.

"First and Second Fire Teams, maintain suppression of the sector! Heavy Bolter coverage, block the alien infantry reinforcement routes!"

"Third Team, advance one hundred meters alongside the Chimera Armored Vehicle fire platform! Establish a new support point! Melta team, follow and provide cover!"

"Fourth Team, tally ammunition consumption; logistics detachment! Resupply immediately!"

Kafanoqi's emotionless voice filled the communication channel.

The Iron Warriors, clad in dark metallic MK2 Power Armor, executed the orders efficiently.

Four Heavy Bolter gunners relied on the wreckage of a destroyed Leman Russ, mounting their weapons on the twisted armor plates.

Tat-tat-tat-tat-tat—!!!

Dense bolter fire was unleashed toward a cluster of Saiboke soldiers attempting to flank the Cadian Infantry position.

The charging Saiboke soldiers raised their Energy Arm Shields, but under the continuous bombardment of the super-heavy bolters, the arm shields quickly overloaded and shattered!

Metal torsos ruptured under the tearing of the bolter rounds, and blue coolant and parts splattered everywhere, instantly clearing an open space.

Meanwhile, a Chimera Armored Vehicle modified by the Iron Warriors, with its roof-mounted Heavy Laser Cannon and side-mounted Multi-barrel Melta, continued to fire, and under the protection of over a dozen Iron Warriors infantry, its tracks crushed the scorched earth as it steadily pushed forward.

Wherever it passed, it left behind burning Saiboke wreckage and molten metal pits.

The warriors of the Melta team followed closely behind, their weapons spewing thick streams of melt, precisely sniping those troublesome targets attempting to approach the armored vehicle or hiding behind cover.

"Alien heavy weapon team detected! Suspected Particle Decomposition Cannon!"

A reconnaissance Sergeant reported.

"Received. Plasma team, three rapid-fire volleys! Eliminate the threat!"

Kafanoqi responded immediately.

Three Iron Warriors holding Plasma Guns quickly took their positions, their weapons emitting a dangerous hum as they charged.

Hum—Zzzzt! Hum—Zzzzt! Hum—Zzzzt!

Three scorching blue plasma spheres roared out, smashing behind a rock bunker!

The violent explosion turned the bunker, along with the Cyberk soldiers and their heavy weapons inside, into molten slag and ionized gas!

The Iron Warriors were numerous; organized into tight fire teams, they advanced step by step, using overwhelming long-range firepower and solid defenses to hold back the flood of Cyberk infantry.
