The remaining enemies aboard the Chaos warship were all shot dead by Lu Jin.
Those among the Fierce Angels and aboard the Ragefang who were capable of fighting began boarding the ship, clearing it from end to end.
Besides the Lamenter at Lu Jin's side, the three Lamenters squads scattered across the warship also joined forces with the Fierce Angels to clear out the remaining warband Mortal soldiers.

The Mortals named the ship the Foe Butcher.

The Fierce Angels once again arrived aboard the Storm Class Imperial warship.
The ship's senior officers gathered on the hangar deck to welcome their guests.

The armor was also incredibly ornate. When it appeared, it made the entire gloomy, filthy hangar deck seem to shine, creating the illusion that the place had brightened.
Bena dropped to one knee.
