Chapter 327 The Beginning
Chapter 327 The Beginning
The third fleet led by Nak, Anrida and Lilith is now like an extremely sharp sword, successfully conquering the Manda world with thundering force.
The Manda world was like a weak lamb under the attack of four frigates and sixteen destroyers, led by an Emperor-class battleship and a cruiser.
It took only two short days to recapture this seemingly indestructible galaxy as quickly as lightning, bringing it back under the supreme rule of the Lord of Stars. All the hidden threats within it were also completely eliminated.
In the magnificent battleship bridge, Nak, the battle-hardened general, seemed a little bored.
He raised his head slightly and asked Lilith beside him softly, "Lilith, has the task of arranging the patrol fleet been successfully completed?"
The defensive power of this galaxy was far too fragile compared to the battles they had experienced before.
The spaceport, which was originally regarded as an important line of defense by the pseudo-emperor's lackeys, easily fell into their hands due to the Space Marines' ruthless direct boarding action.
When the spaceport, the only air force in the galaxy, was eliminated, it collapsed in an instant like a paper fortress in the face of the seemingly massive attack of the defense forces.
All this happened so quickly that Nak, who had always been eager to show his bravery on the battlefield, had no time to display his talents, and he couldn't help feeling an inexplicable sense of boredom in his heart.
"Hmph, the patrol fleet's arrangements were already carefully arranged by Captain Mendeleev long ago. We don't need to worry about these trivial matters at all."
Lilith's tone remained as indifferent as before in response to Nak's somewhat boring question, as if nothing in the world could cause any ripples in her heart.
After being in contact with Nak for a long time, Lilith had long seen through this elder in her heart. Only after a long time of contact did she realize that Nak did not care about his image as an elder at all. When there was no fighting, he was like a naughty child.
"By the way, where's Andrada? Why didn't I see him today?"
Nak didn't care about Lilith's cold look at all. After looking around the bridge, he found that Andrada was not there, so he asked curiously.
"Anrida went to inspect the defense forces stationed on the planet." Lilith didn't even raise her head and continued to look at the information presented in the holographic projection in front of her.
"He really does find work for himself, so he doesn't have to sit idle."
"You can actually give yourself work to do." Lilith responded calmly after hearing Nak's complaints.
"Forget it! I'd better stay here and learn how you command the warship!" Nak waved his hand and continued to watch how Lilith and others maintained and commanded the warship.
If you want to be a qualified officer, you must not only be good at land warfare, but also learn naval warfare.
"Whatever you want." Lilith responded to Nak indifferently.
"Drip drip!"
The sharp and rapid alarm sounded like a sharp sword, instantly shattering the originally peaceful atmosphere in the bridge. In an instant, the entire bridge seemed to be injected with a strong electric current, and the fierce alarm sounded like thunder, echoing in every corner.
Nak's originally relaxed expression seemed to be suddenly awakened by the sudden alarm. His body almost shot up from the chair at the same moment, his movements as agile as a frightened cheetah.
He walked quickly behind Lilith, his eyes flashing with anxiety and doubt, staring closely at the holographic projection in front of Lilith.
"What's going on?" Nak asked quickly.
Lilith looked solemnly at the constantly changing information on the holographic projection in front of her, the complex data and images. After quickly sorting out the information in front of her, she said to Nak without looking up:
"The Sunset Cruiser sent a message that their galaxy has come under fierce attack from the False Emperor's lackeys, and the two sides have already engaged in combat."
Hearing this, Nak couldn't help but feel an inexplicable worry in his heart. He stared at Lilith and asked softly, "Didn't you ask for help?"
Lilith quickly responded, "I didn't ask for help, I just chose to inform us of the news."
There was a hint of helplessness in her tone, as if she was puzzled by the actions of the Sunset Cruiser.
After hearing this, Nak's tense nerves relaxed a little: "It seems that they are confident that they can defeat the false emperor's lackeys and do not need our support."
After saying this, he breathed a sigh of relief, and his nervous expression gradually eased. Since the other party did not choose to ask for help, it proved that this small fleet was capable of facing the incoming pseudo-emperor's lackeys on its own and did not need the support of the rest of the fleet.
At this moment, Lilith's brows suddenly furrowed as she looked at the new message sent in the holographic projection:
"There are also Astartes Space Marines in the fleet of the false emperor's lackeys."
After hearing the news, Nak frowned, took a deep breath, and slowly said: "The Astartes Space Marines are no match for us, there is no need to worry.
Furthermore, the False Emperor's lackeys, the Astartes Space Marines, also operate in groups of thousands. Furthermore, many Chapters have fewer than a thousand men, making them no match for our warriors. Only with a siege of several thousand men can we have a chance of completely defeating a large group."
Although he said this, he felt in his heart that things were not that simple. The Astartes Space Marines were the most elite warriors in the Imperial Army, possessing extraordinary strength and combat skills.
Furthermore, these Space Marines, known as Angels under the False Emperor, were almost impossible to encounter. If the enemy truly had Astartes Space Marines participating in the battle, the situation would become extremely difficult.
"Ask Gray and the others right away if there are any Astartes Space Marines there as well." After Nak figured it out, he immediately said to Lilith.
"it is good."
Lilith also understood Nak's thoughts. Was this just a simple coincidence of encountering the imperial lackeys, or was it a deliberate counterattack by the imperial lackeys? Only after figuring out the situation could targeted arrangements be made.
Communications between several fleets kept ringing in the bridge, and they were all quickly reporting the current situation to each other.
While Lilith was responsible for contacting the rest of the fleet, Nak was also constantly contacting the various armies in the galaxy and arranging defensive measures.
Andrada, who was in charge of patrolling the planet, also used teleportation to return to the bridge directly after receiving the information sent by Nak, and arranged defense measures more carefully.
