Under the blazing sun, millions of Auto-Servitor Robots and countless automated construction machines were carrying out frenzied construction across the vast desert.
The strategic stronghold of Angel's Bastion on Baal's primary world was rapidly returning to the glorious architectural splendor it had possessed before the Leviathan invasion.
In the eyes of many Blood Angels Astartes, the scale of construction in some areas had even completely surpassed the past, becoming brand-new wonders.
Looking out beneath Angel's Keep's enormous dome, colossal laser cannons produced in the Asian Theater of Homeworld Terra stood upon a hardened surface that gleamed with metallic luster.
Moreover, the war batteries and metal walls stretching continuously for hundreds of kilometers were being swiftly fitted by Auto-Servitor Robots with vast numbers of void shields produced by Mobile Hive Cities.
These formidable defensive installations were more advanced in both protection and energy consumption. They could operate independently or directly combine into a single large-scale void shield.
They had practically armed Angel's Bastion, once belonging to the Blood Angels but now more like a Primarch's private domain, into an impregnable super-fortress of war!

At the same time, atop the vast landing platforms scattered between Angel's Bastion's immense walls,
there were Librarian brothers constantly unleashing the Psykic Power within them, as well as Astartes setting up heavy weapons to defend against Warp creatures.
Even more astonishingly, Machine Gods built around Warhound-class Titans as basic units, Reaver-class Titans as their backbone, and Warbringer Nemesis-class Titans as high-level combat units were, under the guidance of countless Adeptus Mechanicus personnel, slowly driving their incomparably massive mechanical bodies out of Warp Portals of considerable size!
Every movement made by the great number of Machine Gods caused the hardened metal ground around them to periodically emit deep rumbles and tremors.
