Starting from the Planetary Governor - Chapter 635

Chapter 633, shaky

mechanical ark is so vast that it could easily hold billions of beings.

Thanks to the transformation technology passed down by Varluk, the direct troops he brought with him have all undergone biochemical transformation, imbued with Zerg traits. Or, at the very least, infected by the Void Corruption, infested with parasites.

They are the primary source of the Warp Shadow.

Of course, just over a billion beings isn’t enough to expand this size and create such a massive Warp Shadow. The number of beings on Alfonzo I only accounted for about 15-20% of the total.

After all, there’s also another mechanical ark and hundreds of ships, some of which are large transports that have just transported troops from the rear for the ground offensive on Aramita. Alfonzo has deployed aboard, from sailors to soldiers to support personnel… all in all, it must be between 500 and 800 million.

Only at this point, with special technology or the Hive Mind’s mastery of the technique, could they be thrown into the void created within the Warp, expanding it to the point of a Warp Shadow.

By decimating these creatures en masse, the Warp Shadow could be struck at its root.

While this starship is only 15-20% full, Gu Hang doesn’t need to slay 500-800 million of its inhabitants. A mere 20% reduction, combined with the weakening caused by Varluk’s control, would weaken the entire Warp Shadow to the point where Gu Hang could directly break through.

At that point, the Warp Shadow would still exist, but it would no longer completely envelop the Storm Kingdom. Gu Hang could then tear a hole through the shadow and release a certain amount of Storm Kingdom’s power into the real universe.

Achieving this would be sufficient, giving him ample means to interfere with reality and aid the Alliance’s forces in achieving ultimate victory in this war.

The challenge now facing Gu Hang was how to eliminate the hundreds of millions of troops aboard this mechanical ark.

It would be impossible for him and the four hundred or so remaining Space Marines

to fight their way through one by one. How long would it take?

The only solution now was to destroy the Ark from within.

If the ship exploded, the vast majority of the hundreds of millions of people inside would naturally die.

But he was in a dilemma.

It wasn’t that he couldn’t do it.

Today’s affairs no longer allowed for mercy. Moreover, although Gu Hang always cared about people’s lives, these people, transformed by Varuk and infected by the Zerg, were already beyond help. They could be considered dead or aliens.

Gu Hang’s dilemma was… destroying the Ark was not easy.

Alpha-class psykers were said to be able to tear apart starships with their bare hands, but there were differences between starships. Tearing apart a patrol ship was the same as tearing apart a battleship. How could that be the same?

Tearing apart the void shield was relatively easy. After all, the void shield is essentially an energy body, and it even relies on the power of the warp to some extent. Powerful psychic energy has a better tearing effect on it. Not to mention, when Gu Hang did this kind of thing in the past, he had a whole group of storm mages around him to assist him.

Now, Gu Hang doesn’t have to deal with the void shield, but it is more difficult to directly blow up the physical structure of this mechanical ark from the inside than to tear open the void shield.

Even with the power of the kingdom of God, he can’t do it, not to mention that he is now n*ked and doing it himself.

The rough method seems to be a bit ineffective…

Then let’s use some more rough means!

Gu Hang stood up, looked around, and said: “Come with me, let’s find the core of the ship, we have to fight our way through!”

…

Gu Hang’s strategy was to employ the traditional Space Marine boarding tactics: fight his way to the enemy’s core, then plant bombs and destroy it.

But the problem was, how could a mechanical ark be any different from a normal ship?

With a frigate or destroyer, finding the engine core and blowing it up, along with the ammunition depots and power modules, the internal detonation alone would be enough to destroy the ship.

However, destroying a cruiser wasn’t so easy. The ship’s design incorporated these features; the power modules and ammunition depots weren’t just one, but were stored separately. Even if one was destroyed, the explosion would be contained within a certain area thanks to the ship’s damage control system. This would cause severe damage, but wouldn’t completely shatter the entire ship from the inside.

Even cruisers had this internal damage control system, let alone a massive mechanical ark like the Alfonzo I.

But there was no silver bullet; the only option was to advance and destroy them one by one.

There weren’t always shortcuts.

He had already grasped this realization.

With the Terminator Squad, led by several Company Champions, and Gu Hang at the core, this team of over four hundred men launched their attack from within the Ark Mechanicus, using the Cathedral as their starting point. Along

the way, the Mechanicus forces, though having lost contact with Varük, had not completely lost their command at all levels.

One force after another, both massive in number and elite in quality, stood in their way.

Faced with these obstacles, Gu Hang and his Shadow Warriors had no choice but to charge forward!

Gu Hang’s psychic energy transformed into bolts of lightning, blasting forward and destroying one powerful war machine after another. The Space Marines, efficiently coordinating with their overlord’s mighty power, mowed down the remaining enemies.

Their primary objective was to destroy the Ark Mechanicus’s command node.

Unlike ordinary ships, which have a bridge as their central command center, the Cathedral served a similar function on Alfonzo I. However, many other cathedrals could also perform similar tasks. Alfonzo I’s command nodes were dispersed.

But it doesn’t matter, destroy one, it’s one;

find another engine core and blow it up;

find another energy warehouse and blow it up, and then the second one…

Gu Hang and his Space Marines fought for six full days on Alfonzo I!

During these six days, they didn’t even have time to rest!

Only Space Marines and top psychics like Gu Hang can withstand such high-intensity and continuous battles.

But even with Gu Hang’s care, all the most difficult points of the battle were directly opened up by Gu Hang with his psychic power, and the shadow warriors still sacrificed more than two hundred people.

Now, there are only more than two hundred people left around Gu Hang.

And with such a huge sacrifice, fighting day and night for six days, they destroyed more than thirty important nodes on the mechanical ark!

The entire mechanical ark is now crumbling!
