Ork Invasion

After destroying the only space dock in the Teda Galaxy, the Greenskins sent their asteroid-made warships straight toward the planets. Once they entered planetary gravity, they plunged directly down.

Trailing long streams of flame, the asteroid warships smashed into the ground. The entire planetary surface shook violently, as terrifying as an asteroid striking Earth. Massive craters were blasted into the surface, and shockwaves spread across the entire planet.

Countless ordinary buildings were destroyed, and vast numbers of humans living on the surface died. Even the sturdy hive cities trembled violently, creating a feeling that the world itself was ending.

More than one asteroid struck the planet. No fewer than three warships landed on Hive World Two, and even Art Student in the Underhive felt the violent shaking.

After the asteroid warships struck the planet, landing craft and drop pods that blotted out the sky flew from the space hulks overhead, staining the heavens fiery red.

Countless towering Greenskin Orks charged out from the meteorites, carrying all manner of weapons.

Choppa Boyz wore a few scraps of metal plating haphazardly over their bodies and carried huge blades.

Shoota Boyz wielded all sorts of enormous guns, whose firing sounds were deafening.

Gretchin Kill Tanks, Ork Dreadnoughts, Gorkanauts, and other war machines charged out close behind them, while Ork aircraft filled the skies.

Although these weapons and pieces of equipment looked crude, assembled from all kinds of industrial scrap metal, they displayed immense power in Ork hands.

These weapons cobbled together from garbage were practically unusable in the hands of other races. Only in the hands of the Greenskins themselves could they unleash their true power.

The Greenskins were a race created by the Old Ones tens of millions of years ago during the War in Heaven.

The Greenskins also possessed the power of Ork belief. They were a war race created by the Old Ones using the reality-warping physical laws of the C'tan as a template.

The present-day Orks had degenerated from the Krork, and their strength could no longer compare to that of ancient times.

The green tide that blotted out the sky raced toward the hive cities, and the ground across the entire planetary surface trembled beneath Greenskin feet.

Art Student looked at the enormous number of Greenskin Orks that had descended upon this planet and sighed inwardly. He had merely wanted to conquer the entire hive world. How had so many changes happened?

Now that the Greenskins had arrived, the Imperium's Navy, Astra Militarum, and Astartes Space Marines would not be far behind.

Several senior managers under Art Student watched the scene unfolding on the screen with blank, disbelieving eyes. Though they had already learned about the Greenskin Orks' style, this was their first time witnessing such a wild method of arrival.

"My lord, what should we do now? Should we face the Greenskin Ork army, or evacuate Teda World?"

Hogood looked at everyone as they recovered their senses, then curiously asked Art Student.

Art Student thought for a moment before speaking.

"We don't need to evacuate Teda World for now. We can use the Greenskin Orks to conduct a major field exercise. Do you have any thoughts?"

"My lord, we have no objections."

Gray and the others knelt on one knee, their eyes filled with fanaticism as they looked at Art Student and shouted.

"Good. In that case, first evacuate the ordinary people in the Underhive back to the base. The soldiers will establish positions outside the base and fight a great battle against the Greenskin Ork army."

Seeing that those under his command showed no fear, Art Student felt his own spirit rise as he spoke loudly.

"We obey the divine decree!"

After Art Student ended the communication, every department under his command began operating at high speed.

All remaining supply transport vehicles in the base were deployed to carry the civilians who had just joined them from the Underhive. Logistics robots also left the base in large numbers and began establishing positions outside it.

In the governor's residence at the top of the spire, the fat governor had been leisurely enjoying a song-and-dance performance by beautiful women. The shocking sight of the Greenskin Ork army landing frightened him so badly that he nearly crawled beneath the table.

"Ah!"

"Ah!"

The serving girls performing below were also terrified and began screaming at once. The governor's residence was thrown into chaos, and the governor had no mood to punish the servants at that moment.

"Guards! Come quickly! What the hell is going on?"

The governor slumped in his chair and shouted loudly.

As soon as the governor's shout fell, a sweating man ran in from outside. He was so out of breath that he could barely stand.

"Governor!"

The man immediately dropped to his knees upon entering the governor's residence. Without even wiping the sweat from his forehead, he urgently said to the governor, "Governor, this is bad! Our space dock was attacked by unknown xenos. The entire dock has been destroyed, and we can no longer contact the personnel inside!"

"How could the space dock be attacked? What about the defense forces stationed there?"

"My lord, everything happened too suddenly. I only saw that the dock had been destroyed in the monitoring room, then I ran here to report it. I don't know what happened afterward."

"Useless! A bunch of useless fools! You haven't even figured out what happened from beginning to end. What am I paying you for?"

The more the governor spoke, the angrier he became. He drew the laspistol at his waist and fired a shot at the subordinate in the hall. After killing his staff member, the governor still did not feel satisfied. He fired several more shots into the corpse before the stifling anger in his heart finally eased somewhat.

"Guards, drag this useless fool's corpse out. It's an eyesore here."

The governor spoke to several family slaves in ordinary power armor who had been respectfully standing guard outside the door.

"Yes, master."

Two expressionless slaves entered, dragged away the corpse, and left the hall.

The governor watched the corpse being dragged away, pacing back and forth in growing agitation. Ten minutes later, another man dressed as an official ran in. The instant he entered the hall, he dropped to both knees, his movements clearly practiced to perfection.

"My lord, Greenskin Orks have invaded."

The official lowered his head and reported to the governor.

"What exactly is going on? Get to the point."

The governor glared viciously at the newly arrived official.

The official lowered his head and glanced at the bloodstains beside him, feeling disdainful. That trash wanted to compete with me for favor? He deserved to die.

"For unknown reasons, Greenskin Orks have arrived in our star system. Hive World One and Hive World Two are both currently under Greenskin attack."

The official spoke carefully.

Having received more information, the governor was instead no longer so angry.

"So it is Greenskin Orks, the Imperium's great enemy. Now we're in serious trouble."

The governor muttered to himself.

"Have the planetary defense forces been notified?"

"Before coming here, I already notified Marshal Liek."
