Oh no, where are the regular troops? Where did the regular troops go?

Mortarion was deeply puzzled.

He looked up. Not only that defensive platform, but almost every defensive platform along the Martian blockade line bore a similar character: "Demolish."

Besides that, there were many red banners fluttering in space, each with different words written on them.

Such as—

Friendly reminder: Loyalty is a tree; construction is fertile soil.

Unauthorized work must be criticized; safe construction must be kept in mind.

Thoroughly implement The Savior's basic engineering policy of "safety first, prevention foremost."

Dangerous blasting zone. Non-workers keep away.

As far as the eye could see, there were huge crimson "Demolish" characters, red banners, and warning lights.

It made the Death Lord and the Daemons hesitate, actually suppressing their arrogant momentum for a time.

"Grandfather above, what in the world happened? Is this still the Martian blockade line?!"

The Death Guard Captain watched the scene with a deep frown.

Ten thousand years ago, when he besieged Terra, he had landed on these defensive platforms. During the Great Rift, he had tried to invade them again. He knew this line like the back of his hand.

This was also one of the reasons Horus, that Dark Emperor, had sent the Death Guard to attack the Martian blockade.

Yet the scene before him was somewhat beyond his expectations, and he faintly felt that something was wrong.
