Flying Weapon Hulk
Unlike Thor's excited expression, Banner, experiencing Warhammer's unique culture for the first time, was engaged in a spaceboarding battle.
His face was ashen.
He felt that this time, there was a high probability that he was really going to die!
What kind of good person would sit in a torpedo-like landing ship, braving a hail of bullets, and infiltrate the enemy fleet?
Besides, they're Space Fleet!
Although humanity currently lacks Space Fleet, in the mind of scholar Banner, this near-future science fiction battle, the real combat scenario, should be a warship exchanging gunfire, delivering fatal blows to the enemy from beyond visual range.
Instead of turning into medieval pirates, risking their lives to charge into enemy fleets and engaging in some ridiculous boarding maneuvering!
What is this if not courting death?
Even with the Hulk around, Banner felt his chances of survival were extremely slim.
"Don't be afraid, this is a torpedo landing ship specifically designed for decapitation strikes, it's sturdier than you think." After securing the safety devices, Thor turned to comfort Banner, who was constantly chanting the Bible and God's blessing. "Believe me, once you experience this, you'll absolutely love it!"
"Only a fool would love such a suicidal act," Banner thought to himself, his face extremely grim as he tried his best to change Thor's mind. "I still think we can consider other methods."
"Hold on tight."
However, Thor didn't give him a chance at all.
As the cabin shook, Banner turned deathly pale, gripping his safety harness tightly, and unconsciously muttered, "O all-knowing God, please bless your devout believer."
There is no God in this world.
Thor patted him on the shoulder and grinned, "But if you want to pray, you can try praying to the Emperor; maybe he'll answer you."
"Emperor?"
Banner paused for a few seconds, wondering how he'd never heard of a deity called "Emperor" in mythology.
But soon, a strong push pushed him back down, forcing Banner to swallow the rest of his sentence!
The feeling was like being crammed into a powerful rocket, with your entire body pressed firmly into the seat. The intense overload made his blood feel like it was boiling, and his face was covered in veins that were starting to turn green.
"You'd better control yourself," Thor said from the side, seemingly unconcerned. "If you transform here, you'll be thrown into a vacuum. I don't care, but you—maybe not."
He inherited the bloodline of the God King, and could survive for a long time even in the vacuum of space. But Hulk —not to mention whether he could survive, even if he could, without the power of the spaceship, he would probably become a "meteorite" and wander aimlessly in the universe for the rest of his life.
Upon hearing this, Banner was so frightened that he immediately controlled his heart rate, forced himself to concentrate, and bound the Hulk inside his body.
The torpedo landing ships they were on consisted of three vessels: one for Thor and Banner, and the other two for two Tactical Squad of the Dark Angels.
This is called "redundancy"!
Three torpedo landing ships rushed directly into the space wormhole at extremely high speed!
Through the landing porthole, Banner saw the densely packed Chitauri fleet, floating in the depths of space.
The largest of them was almost like a floating island!
That's obviously the Chitauri mothership!
Upon detecting their target, the escort ships surrounding the mothership immediately launched interceptor lasers towards their location.
In an instant, a deluge of lasers illuminated the dark universe like a torrent!
As Alvin said before, the Chitauri commander is not an idiot; he couldn't possibly stand idly by and watch the threat approach without doing anything, otherwise he wouldn't be sitting in the commander's position!
War offers no room for luck, and certainly no room for mercy.
The scenario depicted in the movies, where Tony can destroy an entire Chitauri fleet while holding a human nuclear bomb, only exists in movies and could never happen in reality.
This horrifying scene filled Banner with terror, and he screamed in despair, "We're doomed! I knew this wouldn't work!"
The small spacecraft they were on was extremely crude in appearance, with absolutely no technological sophistication. It was no exaggeration to say that it was even older than the Apollo spacecraft that helped the United States land on the moon!
How could such a dilapidated aircraft possibly break through that dense laser interception blockade?
"Don't be nervous, it's nothing." Thor seemed unconcerned; he had seen far more terrifying sights in the "illusion."
Each landing ship is equipped with Machine Spirit. Although they may look dilapidated and old, these machines are considered "antiques" in Warhammer and are truly precious machines!
Under the control of the Machine Spirit, the three torpedo landing ships deflected their Deflector Shield, activated their tails, and accelerated, plunging headlong into the vast rain of lasers with even greater speed and ferocity!
A violent tremor swept through the entire cabin!
Banner clutched his head in terror as he discovered that their landing craft, instead of slowing down, was crashing into the interceptor laser at an even faster speed.
The seemingly dilapidated metal hull of the torpedo landing pod was far more robust than Banner had imagined. Even when a few lasers struck it, they only produced sparks and failed to penetrate the ship's defenses.
In fact, the technology in the Warhammer Universe always oscillates between fantasy and absurdity, seemingly remnants of World War II.
The actual level of technology it contains far surpasses that of the Chitauri!
Laser?
Without using any derogatory language, the lasers used by the Chitauri would have a hard time penetrating even the Astragalus Carapace Armor, let alone the torpedo boats that the Astra Militarum Space Marine specifically used as landing ramps.
"Get ready, it's coming."
At that moment, Thor gripped Mjolnir tightly, gazing out the porthole at the approaching enemy mothership, and said in a deep voice, "It's about to begin—stay close to me!"
"Wait, wait—" Banner's eyes widened as he stared at the ship, which showed no signs of slowing down, and cried out in terror, "Are we going to—ram right into it?!"
"Otherwise what?"
Thor gave him a strange look, as if to ask, "So how do you plan to get in?"
Banner's eyes twitched violently. He thought that a boarding landing meant the ship would hover somewhere on the enemy mothership, and then they would jump on, find the entrance, and infiltrate the ship.
I never expected it to be such a "jumping ship"!
Boom!
Just as Banner screamed, the Melta device at the bow of the torpedo landing ship unleashed a scorching red beam of light a second before it reached the Chitauri mothership!
With the help of Melta to clear a path, the three torpedo landing ships easily penetrated the Chitauri mothership and rammed deep into its hull!
Finally, the shaking stopped.
With the safety device deactivated, Thor grabbed Banner, whose legs were trembling like leaves, and, carrying the hammer "Mjolnir," strode out of the landing craft.
"Madman! Madman!"
Banner, dragged out, stared at Thor in disbelief, his face contorted in utter despair. "You guys are insane! Who would just run right into something?!"
That was so exciting!
If there had been even the slightest mistake along the way, they would be cosmic garbage by now!
"I told you you'd love this feeling." Thor laughed heartily, then turned his gaze to the depths of the dark Chitauri mothership, his smile fading slightly. "They came so quickly, and in such large numbers—it seems we jumped right into the heart of the enemy!"
To prevent being wiped out in one fell swoop, the three torpedo landing ships jumped into the Chitauri mothership from different locations.
But it seems they weren't so lucky.
Banner stared wide-eyed at the countless Chitauri warriors that filled the entire passage, and cried out in despair, "This number... is just too much!"
He quickly turned to Thor, his only source of support. "There are at least several hundred on the other side, and we only have two people."
How am I supposed to fight this?!
How do we fight?
Thor suddenly turned around, stared at Banner with a malicious smile, grabbed Banner by the collar, and before he could react, he suddenly threw him directly at the Chitauri.
"It's very simple, just—play it like this!!!"
"Hulk!!!"
With Banner's terrified screams, his body suddenly swelled up, transforming into a gigantic green monster that crashed into the Chitauri horde like a cannonball.
"Roar!!"
