Starting from the Planetary Governor - Chapter 1043

Chapter 1034: Invading the Subspace from Reality

. In the vast square of the Imperial Palace, Marshal Yan Xinzhen of the Imperial Guards led thousands of fully armed Imperial Guards, ready for battle.

They were not only fully armed themselves, but also equipped with tactical motorcycles, Imperial Guard Terminator armor, Imperial Guard Dreadnoughts, and precision tanks… every weapon, both conventional and unconventional, was unearthed.

Besides the Imperial Guards, there was also the Golden Knights, who had suffered heavy losses in the Battle of Holy Terra and had been reorganized.

Half of the remaining Terran fleet had assembled in orbit around Holy Terra.

…

In the northern territories of the Empire, on a world called Scarlet Star.

Most of the land here was covered in red sand, and a special spice could be mined from the desert. Beyond that, it was unremarkable.

But at this moment, a large army was gathering here.

Imperial Regent Robert was present.

It had been several years since his Indomitable Crusade was declared. As the expedition’s supreme commander, he had actually spent relatively little time on Holy Terra. He spent more time on the front lines, directly commanding armies.

And right now, he was with the Northern Front. Assembling with him on the Crimson Planet were the largest and most elite troops he could muster in a short period of time. Besides the

vast Imperial Army, the Crimson Planet was also surrounded by the Crusade’s fleet, as well as over seven thousand Space Marines stationed on the planet alongside Robert, including the Infinite Chapter and the Bat Chapter, which had recently returned to the Empire during the Indomitus Crusade.

Of course, this wasn’t the limit; it represented the strength gathered around Robert.

Across all the fronts of the Indomitus Crusade, there were seven similar gathering points, totaling over fifty thousand Space Marines!

…

On the Dark Side of the Empire, on the battlefields of the Southern Front, Dark Side Expeditionary Commander-in-Chief Martins, like Robert, was already fully armed. The number of Space Marines gathered around him, from the Phoenix Bloodline and other bloodlines, was even greater, reaching thirty-three thousand.

The Mortal Army and Navy were also massive.

And the forces he had gathered were far greater.

Similar gatherings were occurring across the three fronts of the Dark Side Crusade.

Six gathering points totaled over 130,000 Space Marines, the largest of which was the Bloodline of the Saints.

This chapter, one of the earliest to embrace the Alliance and known for its highly compatible gene-seed, now boasts a combined strength of over 200,000, making it the largest single Bloodline under the Alliance.

…

In the Honey Saturn sector of the Nightless Realm, at the westernmost tip of the Empire’s southern border, the Angels of Death and the Blood Angels, under the command of the Lion, were battling the Chaos forces, now without the leadership of the Avatar of the Evil God. The Lion ordered all forces to halt their offensive.

Afterwards, while a portion of troops remained on Yusheng to consolidate the gains made in the war, the remaining elite, mobilized by Leon, gathered at the Stone Monastery, the home of the Angels of Death.

Gathering there, in addition to over 12,000 Angels of Death, were 40,000 Blood Angels, led by Dante.

…

Beyond this gathering of Space Marines, elite forces from various factions also gathered in the heart of the Alliance.

The Forge Worlds, once thriving under the Alliance, now with their independence significantly weakened and even forcibly merged into the “Mechanicum Alliance,” were also formed.

Under Alliance rule, the Reformed State Religion, already known as “Protestantism,” issued a call for a holy war. While their influence dwarfed that of the traditional State Religion, the call for a holy war could better mobilize the Sisters of Battle, already integrated into the Alliance’s operational ranks. The Sisters

of Battle, led by the Sisters of the Holy Lily, were a formidable force.

They are mortals, undeniably unlike Space Marines, who have undergone rigorous surgical modifications. While they are certainly no match for Space Marines in terms of individual combat prowess, they are nonetheless superior to the Alliance’s most elite warriors, the Honor Guard.

Physically, no matter how much women train, they are generally inferior to men. In terms of Power Armor, they generally wear Reflex Power Armor.

The reason for this difference in strength, and the apparent superiority of the Sisters of Battle, is their faith. They possess a subtle, unreliable blessing, which gives them the average individual combat power of human forces, second only to that of Space Marines.

Still, the Honor Guard should not be underestimated.

While these elite soldiers, clad in Reflex Power Armor, lack the average individual strength of the Sisters of Battle or the Space Marines, they possess one unique advantage that neither possesses: numbers!

The Honor Guard’s 80,000 might sound like a ragtag bunch of ragtag troops, but in reality, each one of them is an elite unit!

They couldn’t defeat the Space Marines or the Battle Sisters, but their sheer numbers were a formidable force—even a Space Marine couldn’t stand a single blow against a hundred Glory Guards. In fact, a single veteran Space Marine could easily be crushed by a dozen or so Glory Guards.

This time, the combined forces of the Mechanicus, the Battle Sisters, and the elite Glory Guards totaled over forty million!

…

Time flows chaotically in the Warp, its concept of time radically different from that of the real universe.

The chase between Gu Hang and Bassol seemed brief in the Warp, but reflected in the real universe, it had lasted a full three months.

These three months also saw the entire New Empire mobilize to its fullest, following Gu Hang’s orders.

The expedition was halted, and the troops assembled.

Once everything was ready to resume, countless massive space gates opened before the armies, already well-equipped at dozens of assembly points across the Alliance and the New Empire.

These dazzling space gates were forcibly opened in the chaotic background of the warp, and their exits pointed to the core area of Bassol, where part of its body was firmly imprisoned by the Kingdom of Storm God. It was precisely because of the loss of the Lord of God that the Universal Furnace seemed weak and empty!

Gu Hang’s invasion of the Universal Furnace began again.

But this time, it was no longer a confrontation between the Heroic Spirit and the Demon Engine. Instead, it was the most powerful material force, the most determined will, and the most sophisticated weapons in the real universe. With the support of the space channel opened by Gu Hang, they brazenly invaded the kingdom of the evil god in the warp!

The demons of the warp can invade the real universe, but now they want to let an evil god taste the taste of being pushed back by humans!
