The Shadow of Order Battleship with Falsified Readings

The battle for proof that Ulian Bendregg had been hoping for finally arrived in the first month of 842.

After sacrificing forty-three capital ships, the First Legion finally reached high orbit around the Holy Grail Star.

Bendregg personally led the 8th Legion, the unit he belonged to before becoming corps commander, to launch the first airborne assault.

After leaping out of the Drop Pod, he calmly aimed and fired at the beam of light fired by the Mitu.

A high-explosive bullet shattered the Xenos's disc-shaped the Chariot.

The Warrior of the 8th Legion then stepped forward, the roar of their Bolter echoing through the sacred land of the Xenos.

In Bendregg's Eyepiece, the runes representing each squad gradually lit up.

Amid the chaos of the landing, the Warrior of the 8th Legion quickly formed ranks.

Bendregg led his troops forward, Mitu's Arcane Technology inflicted considerable losses on the 8th Legion's Warrior, but it could not stop them from advancing toward the Holy Grail Temple.

On the steps before the shimmering Grail-shaped temple, Bendregg encountered a creature clad in shimmering robes, its anemone-like body blending with the iridescent colors of the Mitu — Xenos both real and surreal.

As a master swordsman of the First Legion, Bendregg was immediately drawn to the longsword in his hand, which resembled wisps of green smoke.

He stared intently at the longsword, its hilt seemingly growing out of the hand rather than being forged, connected to his claws.

The blade projected an ethereal energy field, like dancing and shimmering smoke and mist.

Bendregg raised his sword, assumed a fighting stance, and approached High Priest Mitu.

High Priest Mitu let out a piercing scream, Bendregg couldn't understand, but he could guess it was probably something like blasphemy.

Bendregg kept his eyes fixed on his opponent, launching an attack as the man lunged at him in anger.

Bendregg blocked the Xenos's attack, then twisted his wrist, passing over the ethereal, smoky blade, and aimed straight for the enemy's neck.

High Priest Mitu seemed to have anticipated this, and he nimbly dodged the attack.

Bendregg clashed with the Xenos in close combat, his blade leaving a trail of eerie blue light and wisps of smoke in the air.

The Warrior of the 8th Legion, with complete confidence in their commander, rained down bullets on the Mitu, preventing them from getting closer.

Bendregg did not disappoint them; the First Legion's sword masters launched a fierce and relentless attack, even faster than the High Priest's premonition.

His sword-wielding speed was not as fast as Bendregg's swift swordsmanship.

Bendregg left numerous sword wounds on the anemone's body with a series of continuous strikes.

High Priest Mitu's speed decreased until he could no longer keep up with Bendregg's attacks.

Bendregg twisted the Power Blade, and as the blades clashed, he suddenly rolled the Power Sword, delivering a precise blow that pierced High Priest Mitu's abdomen.

Accompanied by the sharp roar of the Disruption Field, large chunks of flesh were torn apart.

Bendregg delivered another slash, shattering the anemone's body.

While the First Legion was purging the Mitu Xenos on the Holy Grail Star, they returned to Nimrod in Mezoa and launched their own offensive.

Moab is the only passage from Mezoa to the Manache system, and it is also the relatively stable meeting point of Warp waves between the Cyclops Cluster and Manache.

Therefore, the cold desert planet Moab, devoid of any resources, became the largest human colony in the surrounding region.

Centuries ago, the shadow of the Mitu shrouded the skies of Moab, and the world became their factory of flesh and blood.

Per Koschelny led the 11th Chapter, ordered to attack Moab and seize the gateway to Manache.

In the second month of 842, the fleet of the 11th Chapter arrived in Moab.

Relic-class battleship, Son of Vostonia, Simulacrum Sanctum.

The runes in the niche shimmered, and the electronic devices activated, flashing with blue light.

Per sat in a cable-wrapped seat that resembled Drop Pod. He had just connected to a neural interface that ran directly to his spine when he was immediately thrown into a daze and swallowed up by a sea of data.

Based on data from both sides in Moab, he, along with dozens of Auxilia, completed calculations and formulated a battle plan.

Frigates and destroyers were the first to move out, forming an assault formation that created a spreading sphere of destruction.

Subsequently, the capital ships increased their power, and the two battleships, the Sword of Vostonia the First Company and the Vostonia's Shield the Second Company, became the two flank hammers, smashing down on the Mitu warship.

Only the Son of Vostonia did not approach the battlefield; the Relic-class warships fully utilized their firepower advantage to launch a deadly sniper attack on the Mitu warship.

As the most outstanding "Lawyer" under the Black Emperor, Per knows how to leverage his strengths and strike at the enemy's weaknesses.

Having gained the upper hand in the void battle, Per began another mission: to test twelve warships equipped with modified Rangdan Xenos manipulation technology.

He planned and deployed twelve warships in the same area, with no friendly warships around.

Deploying warships in the deepest void is no easy task, but dealing with the Shadow of Order, which possesses Simulacrum Sanctum, is far easier than with most Imperial Fleet.

The twelve black warships did not disrupt the lines of friendly warships, and at the same time, warships with equivalent firepower were deployed to fill their positions.

More than five hundred warships achieved perfect coordination in the void.

Compared to the scheduling requirements for coordination, the number of liaison ships in the fleet has been significantly reduced, to only one-tenth of the previous number.

In fact, liaison ships have almost no effect on the current "Shadow of Order," and they are only kept in order to deal with extreme situations.

Relying on its powerful heart, the Punishment-class Reactor, the "Shadow of Order" warship can provide higher power to the communication array system, in addition to carrying various systems such as weapons and Void Shield.

The Simulacrum Sanctum can therefore take over the duties of the communication ships and reduce the need for communication personnel on each warship.

The flagship of the First Company, the Sword of Vostonia, saw Gibbs in the Simulacrum Sanctum clearly understand his duties.

With a sudden inspiration, he selected a capital ship from the Mitu fleet and issued instructions to the Tech Sergeant in charge of the experiment.

At a straight-line distance of five meters, the Tech Sergeant immediately issued the order.

The battleship's newly installed Cloaking Field Generator is operating at full power.

The Tech Sergeant checked all the data and confirmed that thousands of generators were running.

Especially regarding generators related to Aether, the Mitu are skilled in Arcane Technology, and their remote sensing systems are also based on Aether readings.

Gibbs's focus was more comprehensive, most directly reflected in the outcome: whether the enemy attacked the Sword of Vostonia.

After the battleship's flanks fired two Macro-cannon artillery at the enemy ships, he realized that the Mitu warship had failed to identify his own flagship, which had cut between them.

Like dull spheres, they foolishly continued to spin, mistaking Gothic Imperium warships for friendly vessels.

The data feedback was compiled to Per, and it was found that none of the twelve warships had been attacked by the enemy; the test was a success.

With the victory in the Void Battle secured, Per gave the order for the Son of Vostonia to reach high orbit in Moab.

After attacking the Mitu's orbital defenses, Per ordered an orbital airdrop.

The Voidport of Moab is crucial to the future "Shadow of Order" and must not be reduced to ruins by war.

Per boarded the Drop Pod and plummeted toward the largest Voidport scanned by the Auger Matrix.

The people inside the labor camp stared in astonishment at the blinding, rain-like light flashing in the sky.

After exiting the Drop Pod, Per gathered his guards and charged toward the massive domed building in the center of the port.

He raised his Archaeotech Pistol and fired an Inferno Bolter Shell.

The Adamantine Warhead pierced the disc-shaped Mitu Chariot, releasing oxygen-phosphorus gel that incinerated the Xenos. At the same time, he drew his golden longsword.

"For the Monarch of Vostonia!" Per shouted, silently chanting in his heart, "For the Black Emperor! For my lord!"

He then brandished the golden longsword that the Black Emperor had personally forged during his battle with Primarch Vulkan, and charged into the horde of Xenos, the blade spinning rapidly as he slashed.

Per felt a surge of power within his body.

The Black Emperor has only ever forged one weapon by his own hand, and it is now in his possession—what an honor!

The "Barbarian" let out a "Wild Howl," and more than twenty Mitu Xenos swayed, seeing Venus before their eyes.

The "Barbarian" savagely crashed into the Xenos, its golden blade gleaming, and the Mitu's Arcane Weapons were brutally shattered by its overwhelming power.

Bathed in a light as brilliant as the wings of the Primarch, the guards followed in Per's footsteps.

The golden light, like a spearhead, tore through the Xenos formation until it was forced to stop outside the dome-shaped building.

The anemone-shaped body of the Mitu Guard General burst out from the defense command post, enveloped in a smoky light.

A dense barrage of projectiles rained down on his energy shield, creating a series of explosive sounds.

Boom boom boom!

Per noticed that the Mitu Xenos's shield remained intact despite the attacks from the guards.

He raised the crystal-like pistol in his hand and fired an orange beam.

The beam struck a guard on the left, piercing his Power Armor, and the smell of burning filled the air.

The newly Briber,"Per, raised his Archaeotech Pistol and handed Mitu five Inferno Bolter Shells.

Mitu's arcane shield was covered by burning chemical fuel, but General Mitu remained calm; this level of attack could not possibly break his arcane energy field.

But the arcane shield vanished abruptly the next moment.

As Mitu was puzzled, Per suddenly appeared in front of him, wielding his golden longsword and slashing at the anemone's body.
