Chapter 906 The Situation Is Under Control

After talking about the Chaos Army, we also need to talk about the deployment of the Imperial Fleet. Through the joint efforts of spies and sorcery, Delau learned about the fleet deployed by the Empire in Cadia.

The Cadia Fleet consists of 12 battleships, 12 cruiser squadrons, and 21 frigate squadrons.

The Corona Fleet consists of 7 battleships, 13 cruiser squadrons, and 17 frigate squadrons.

The Gothic Fleet consists of 5 battleships, 9 cruiser squadrons, and 13 frigate squadrons.

The Space Marine fleet consists of 21 strike barges, 150 strike cruisers, and 200 frigate squadrons.

The number of the remaining Imperial Fleet is unknown, but the total number should not be too small, but it is definitely at a disadvantage in number in front of the Chaos Army with the support of demons and degraded bodies.

Putting aside the hard power, Abaddon's timing for launching the attack is also quite good. At first, Drau was quite dissatisfied with Abaddon's sudden change of the battle plan, and he also sneered at the unorganized and undisciplined behavior of the Khorne war gang who left the team without permission.

But when he followed the large army to the portal of the Eye of Terror - the fortress world of Cadia, he suddenly realized that his judgment of Abaddon was very wrong.

At that time, Cadia was shrouded in pure darkness, and the huge fleet of the Empire gathered in this area was also flying up and down like a headless fly in the energy turbulence of the Blackstone Spire. It was entirely relying on the captain's rich experience and the blessing of the corpse king to avoid a large-scale chain collision accident.

Warmaster Abaddon must have discovered that Cadia was about to be abnormal, so he suddenly changed the battle plan and chose to launch a surprise attack on the Imperial fleet before the warp storm sorcery was cast.

Although in the eyes of some idiots who believe in Khorne and whose brains are replaced by muscles, Abaddon's behavior is a complete villain's behavior of taking advantage of others, but Drau doesn't think so.

Considering all the factors on the battlefield is a part of the battle, don't play if you are unhappy. The Imperial Army should have realized that the Black Stone Spires were untrustworthy and made preparations in advance.

But Delau also thought that the Imperial Army might have prepared, otherwise how could the uncontrolled energy flow of the Black Stone Spires form an insurmountable natural barrier on Cadia, and the Imperial Army that should have been defeated long ago just happened to occupy all the easy-to-defend and difficult-to-attack locations?

The battle on the ground was at a stalemate, and the situation in the void was not as smooth as Abaddon said. The Imperial Fleet did suffer a lot of losses in Abaddon's surprise attack, but they built a strong defense line with the Dark Angels' Monolith Fortress as the core.

The battle in the void was extremely cruel, and many troops full of fighting enthusiasm even had the opportunity to board the torpedoes taken away by the battleships' powerful macro cannons and light spears.

Delau likes to appreciate space battles, but he doesn't like to fight space battles. The powerlessness of small ships in the face of behemoths is real, and the battle deployment is no different from a pile of waste paper. Delau prefers to find opportunities in the trenches and terrain on the ground, and defeat all enemies in a subtle way, rather than sitting in a huge and glorious warship, boringly and mechanically ordering the ship's guns to fire, and then watching the enemy explode into a ball of fireworks.

That's too boring.

Cannonballs, torpedoes, and light spears filled the void. Abaddon found that the Imperial Fleet was not as fragile as he expected, so he slowed down the siege of the Imperial Fleet and waited for the activation of the Warp Storm Spell. The Imperial Fleet also took advantage of this precious breathing opportunity to restore the warship's systems and mechanical equipment that were affected by the inexplicable turbulence as much as possible.

Finally, the sorcery was activated, and a Warp Storm was generated from the depths of the Eye of Terror and rushed towards Cadia. The Chaos Fleet, which has been in the Chaos Realm for a long time, has quite mature means to deal with this terrifying storm, but for the Imperial Fleet, which can only shuttle in the Warp Space with the help of Geller's position, this storm is enough to kill them.

The storm instilled countless blasphemous thoughts and twisted ideas into the fragile brains and bodies of mortals. The Imperial fleet dealt with the endless Chaos traitors in the warships while defending against Abaddon's next round of fierce attacks.

During this period, in order to reduce losses and facilitate the attack on Terra in the future, Abaddon deployed all the more than 30 degraded void stations that the Dark Mechanicus had just made on the battlefield. These degraded void stations have powerful firepower and are also docks. He is like a Tyranid mothership, spewing out twisted and indescribable flying objects from the holes.

These degraded floating objects have no long-range attack capabilities, but they are very fast. Neither the Empire nor the Chaos side's void fighters can be as fast and flexible as these floating objects.

These floating objects will ignore the firepower network in front of them and hit the hull of the Imperial warship at full speed like a meteorite. The Empire's void shield is completely unable to stop these things from approaching, and can only rely on anti-aircraft guns and Imperial fighter groups to defend.

As more and more of these floating objects hit the hull of the Imperial warship, they will connect together, like barnacles, affecting the maneuverability of the warship. What's more terrifying is that as these floating objects accumulate larger and larger, they will begin to grind the hull of the warship until a hole leading to the interior is made, and then they will imitate the degraded void station to create a lower level of degraded bugs.

Degraded worms are like lampreys made of bones, about the size and thickness of a mortal's arm. They can crawl and float, but can only be at a height of about 50cm above the plane. Under the sharp teeth that are enough to grind steel is a black hole that can never be filled. Their number far exceeds that of degraded bodies, but they are also more fragile and more brainless. A laser cannon installed in a narrow corridor can stop the attack of thousands of degraded worms.

When the warship is killed by degraded worms, these degraded worms that cannot find living things will disintegrate after a few hours and become powder accumulated in every corner of the warship. The degraded floating objects that have been waiting outside the warship for a long time also slowly poured in, assimilating this unmanned warship into a part of his body, and then continue to look for the next warship full of living things.

This powerful infection and assimilation ability terrified Delau, who had never seen this ability in the Tyranid swarm, which is famous for its efficient evolution. Since these degraded floating objects can assimilate imperial warships, it is not difficult to assimilate chaos warships.

Delau was not the only one who was nervous. Many leaders of Chaos warbands asked Abaddon a lot of questions after seeing the abilities of the degraded floating objects.

To this, Abaddon simply replied to them, "These degraded bodies are just tools. We hold the key to activate and deactivate them."
