Chapter 521: Prepare for Chaos
"Of course I will. I didn't see this possibility before, but now, I can guarantee that guy will come to resolve this uncertainty."
Trazyn tapped his head with his finger, as if he had it all figured out.
"This villain is vindictive, treacherous, cunning, and sarcastic. He might be hiding somewhere and watching you and me.
When necessary, launch a thunder strike, but be careful of his energy attack, the Empire Titan's void shield can't stop it for even a second."
Lin Heng nodded, but even though the other party was the number one astrologer and could exert energy output equivalent to Alpha level, he was still a human being.
"However, he is just like you. He does not have his own armed forces, so he is not strong enough to fight alone."
Just like the Lion King he was looking for, just one Primarch could not change the overall situation.
What he wanted was the other party plus the First Legion. Only in this way could Lin Heng push forward his subsequent plans.
“I agree, but I have a feeling that things won’t be that simple. We need to strengthen the guards of those Tau leaders.
The death of the Ether group has caused the stability of the Tau society to deteriorate.
If these leaders suddenly pass away, the leaderless Tau Empire will eventually collapse."
Lin Heng listened to it and decided to ask Yuanjian Yingyang and the others to be prepared.
Now all he could do was wait.
...
Lin Heng forgot when he fell asleep.
It's a very strange feeling, being in it without any cause or consequence, it makes you unable to even distinguish yourself.
That kind of black is not the darkness that swallows everything, but the sense of edge is like being in a huge room.
The ground under his feet reflected his blurry figure, and the ripples created by his squatting quietly moved away into the distance.
Following the direction of the ripples, Lin Heng saw a faint light.
He started walking, and the ripples took him to the place where the light appeared.
A group of Sisters gathered in front of the Emperor's statue. They tried to move forward, but were stopped by other Medical Sisters in white armor.
This was the second time he saw this scene, and it was much clearer than the last time.
The ripples hit their feet and then returned and surged towards Lin Heng. The ripples between the two began to subside, and the nun always had her back to him.
She seemed to have said something, and the nuns in black armor all knelt down, put their hands together, and chanted silently, no longer insisting on checking the bed board behind the medical sister.
Lin Heng looked at the back of the white-haired nun in the lead in silence. He wanted to take another step forward, but the dull pain in his heart made him stop.
He really wanted to take a look at the other person, just one look...but the problems he would face after one look were indescribable.
What's more, the third ripple quickly surged from the darkness on the side, as if someone was staring at him in the dark.
But Lin Heng couldn't see the other party...
Lin Heng took one last look at the silver-white hair, opened his mouth, and turned to walk into the darkness far away from the light.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The meshing sound of the huge gears is tooth-gripping. The sound of industrial exhaust gas is like the roar of a wild animal hunting.
But these discordant sounds were neutralized by the long singing of prayers as the bells vibrated between the pipes.
Lin Heng opened his eyes and found himself lying in an abandoned room. He pushed open the half-broken door and the chaotic atmosphere at the bottom of the nest hit him in the face.
It was like he was coming into this damn world for the first time, like he was opening his eyes for the first time.
At that time, he felt that he would not live for more than two days, but now...
"My dear, after the two sides discussed it, surprisingly, there was not much dispute, and it was even quite peaceful."
"Hey, you seem uneasy. Do you want to talk? I know you will say no."
'No, let's go home.'
The umbilical cord substitute sensed Lin Heng's disconnected star language, sighed, and looked at Caroline who was still sleeping beside him.
He reached out and gently stroked the other's three-foot black hair, and a lazy moan like a kitten sounded at the same time.
"You haven't told me yet what your plan is. Are you going to look for the real Caroline?
I'm not just a tool for you to use to satisfy your sexual desires, am I? I just know..."
The stand-in lightly hit Caroline's head with his fist, then turned her somewhat sad face towards himself.
"Sister, it was obviously you who started it first."
"Bullshit."
Caroline shrank back.
The stand-in continued to stroke the other's hair until the faint sobbing sound was heard.
"I am a person, or rather my perception tells me that this is not my mission... Let Lin Heng go by himself."
"Then why don't you come with me? To create a real garden world."
He knew that the substitute was a part of Lin Heng, and he understood his position from the beginning to the end.
He is Lin Heng, how come he doesn't know what he is thinking...
"I don't like to make promises that may not be fulfilled. My guide to action is to just do it."
"Then let's just go. What does it matter if you and I are missing?"
Caroline poked her head out from under the quilt, her jewel-like eyes full of expectations for the future.
The substitute leaned in and kissed him. This body gave him the ability to appear, but also limited his life.
The pieced-together body will eventually fall apart.
"Why don't you try to predict the fate of both of us? I will stop you this time."
The stand-in spoke, but Caroline lowered her brows in sorrow.
"I dare not..."
"So let's just wait and see what happens. At least for now, as a liaison with the Tau, I can follow you."
The two lonely souls cling to each other, hoping to weather the subsequent turbulent storm together.
...
The two tribes returned to their respective bases in the Cassandra system with heavy hearts.
In the midst of an endless stream of enemy information such as rebels, orcs, and thieves over the past half month, an urgent secret order from a Chaos ship was sent to the parliament.
Thunderclaps suddenly appeared out of nowhere, as if it was the fuse of everything, igniting the depressing atmosphere of the entire galaxy.
Soon, three days later, the planet guarded by the Tau also sent news about the movements of the enemy fleet.
Ships of various shapes and colors slowly advanced in twos and threes from the edge of the Cassandra system like tourists.
There was no trace of the Spirit of Vengeance among the hundreds of Imperial warships of various types.
Everyone knew that this was just the enemy's vanguard, sent to confuse the enemy and spy on the enemy.
They wanted to disperse their already small number of ships and wait for the main battleships to launch a thunderous offensive to wipe out any chance of survival.
"To what extent has the fleet been assembled?"
Lin Heng looked at the scattered light spots and spoke calmly.
"There are currently 143 known star warships in the Cassandra system, including the 52 Tau ships.
In the defense force of the Vorkus Ring Star System, there are about 80 light warships that are unable to navigate in the subspace.
According to the direction the enemy is heading, we can only leave 31 Star Wars spare ships for maneuvering," the admiral said anxiously.
"There are many enemies in other galaxies as well. For now, we can only mobilize these ships. But we cannot rule out the possibility of more ships arriving later.
"What about commercial ships?"
Everyone looked at the Rogue Trader and the noble representative, and finally Ulysses stood up and said bluntly:
"In the Cassandra system alone, there are 744 merchant ships in operation, most of which are light cruiser-class merchant ships.
Rather than sending them into battle, it would be better to use them for logistical support, transporting strategic materials or transferring ground troops.
Of course, if you want them to charge into the battlefield, although the caliber of the artillery is still small, just like the laser guns of the Astra Militarum, more of them can also kill Titans."
"Yes, that's quite correct. If you were a commissar, you would definitely become a hero of the Empire," the Astra Militarum general teased.
However, few people laughed out loud.
"What do you think?" Gerald asked the silent Lin Heng.
Now the main force of the Black Legion has not appeared yet, and everything is unknown.
"This is not my strong point. It's up to you."
"Then proceed as planned."
【naval battle】
"Captain, the fleet has arrived at the Cassandra system on schedule and is now at X500W (million), Y20K (thousand), and Z13K (thousand) units on the planet Vorkus. Should we start the patrol mission?"
The fleet's first mate stepped forward and asked the vice admiral on the throne.
The gorgeous cloak fluttered slightly as the man stood up, and the gold thread decorated on the back shone dazzlingly under the light above his head.
On the chest of the standard naval general uniform, there are more than a dozen medals of honor of various shapes.
It is not difficult to imagine that when people got up every day, even with the help of servants, it would probably take a long time to change their clothes.
The lieutenant general stroked his carefully trimmed mustache and immediately gave the order:
"Very good, gather the personnel and hold a pre-war meeting."
Twenty minutes later, a miniature sector council was convened on the bow deck of the Dominator-class cruiser.
The audio director, who had a round microphone like a mask on his mouth, stepped forward and nodded, then started the conversation:
"Dear Vice Admiral Jack Sparrow, Captain of the Sabre.
Because the senior tech-priest indicated that he was conducting a machine soul appeasement ritual, he sent his cadet to attend the meeting instead."
"No problem. As long as he can ensure that the engine and void shield system do not fail at the critical moment, it doesn't matter if he doesn't come every time."
The captain waved his hand, looking very easy-going.
"The Navigation Master just finished his space travel, so he is resting now. Family members have also arrived."
"Master, you have worked hard. Rest assured. You will be able to contribute in the future. Without you, the ship will be left without an eye."
"The Chief Astropath is currently receiving astropathic messages from the outstation with the choir. No one else can be sent for the time being."
"Ah, they sent out star messages right after arriving up there. It seems our council is still one step ahead."
"And the Chief Petty Officer is sending someone to investigate three murders on the lower deck, so the one attending the meeting is his armed captain."
"Ah, this is proof of the disadvantages of an overly open sex life, with children and mistresses everywhere, causing trouble all the time.
But since they are our reserve forces, having more is not a problem."
The remaining first, second, third officers, and heads of departments have all arrived, and the audio channels with the other three ships have been established. They are already online, Captain."
The information director nodded again and handed the leadership to the lieutenant general.
Sparrow looked very happy when he nodded. This time the parliament was more complete than he had imagined.
"You are all my old subordinates who have fought with me in the Balor Galaxy. You all know my way of doing things very well, so I won't waste any more words."
Remember to have the contemplatives on board the monastery record one copy of the route and the clerk record one copy manually.
While avoiding errors, certain non-physical change problems can be discovered in a timely manner.
Secondly, the rest of the personnel performed their respective duties, especially the heads of artillery, ordnance, and carrier-based aircraft.
Your meticulousness was crucial in ensuring the triumphant return of my fleet, this time of the prestigious Black Legion.
You may say that you don't regard them as your opponents, but anyone who really underestimates the enemy is a born fool.
Have I made myself clear?" Vice Admiral Sparrow stopped twirling his beard and asked with his hands folded behind his back.
"clear!"
A holographic image of officers, leaders, and captains of other ships shouted in response.
"Is there anything else?"
"Yes, Captain," the audio director said, raising his hand.
"speak."
"The choir has received the message and is asking if they would like to establish an independent channel for you."
“No need, since we are all here, let’s listen to what is said above.
As far as I know, there was some alien guy who was discussing some peace talks, and the higher-ups actually agreed to it.
Now the two tribes live in peace and fight together against the coming black army...
Fortunately, this guy was not stupid enough to let these blue fishes come with us, otherwise I would have killed them first no matter what. "
The officers below expressed their opinions, and generally everyone was opposed to this bizarre situation.
Everyone complained about the uncertainty of Lin Heng's cooperation plan, and they all thought it was a fantasy that could never be realized.
Just as everyone was chatting animatedly, the sound array channel was established here, and the weak voice of the chief astrologer slowly sounded, and everyone immediately listened attentively.
"Captain, I have received a message from my superiors that a group of Chaos ships have been spotted passing through our defense zone. We are immediately halting our patrol mission and changing course to intercept them."
Sparrow twirled the tip of his beard again, giving an expression that said, "What did I say?"
"It's time to show the fleet of the Cassandra system how we fight.
These junks hiding in the Eye of Death and the backward scanning tools put them at a disadvantage from the start.
Go to the battlefield immediately and use the ship-borne auspicious instrument to conduct secondary reconnaissance. I want to know the firepower configuration of those traitors as soon as possible. "
After the order was issued, everyone immediately went to the areas under their jurisdiction, and the large ship-borne auspicious instrument took the lead in starting the information warfare.
Half a Terran hour later, Vice Admiral Sparrow had an additional intelligence report on the enemy fleet's configuration.
"Two Cannibal-class cruisers and two Faithless-class destroyers. Very good, just a group of old, weak, and disabled ones.
The Dreadnought-class light cruiser Sun Chaser and the frigate Stone acted alone as bait to attract the enemy fleet.
The other two frigates, Guardian and Hammer, hid in the nebula 42.8K units away with the main ship Sabre.
Once the bait is confirmed to have been discovered by the enemy, immediately fire two shots and accelerate to break out to the side.
See if the enemy takes the bait. If so, we will join forces with them and attack with firepower.
If they don't take the bait, they will continue to retreat and form a double-team with the main ship to besiege the enemy."
So the two decoys continued to move forward, and broke directly into the opponent's alienated divination instrument.
After discovering the enemy, it slowly slowed down, and a dazzling beam of light shot out from the port side, pushing the ship to slowly turn.
The Chaos warbands began to speed up, like fish attracted by sequins in the water. Only when they thought they had bitten their prey did they realize that they were the prey that had been hooked.
