Just when Valentin Sage began to look forward to what Men of Iron's compensation would be.

A series of huge flashes of light suddenly appeared on Wasteland a little further away.

"Zi la!"

Energy arcs flickering everywhere made loud noises in the air, completely making Iax look away from Destroyer Combat Servitor.

"%@#&*! How dare they! This is a serious violation! I want to report it to Inquisition!"

Valentin Sage looked at the huge flash of light and suddenly screamed angrily. The harsh binary curse successfully made Iax turn his head and take a look. Men of Iron said he could not understand the other party's sudden madness.

As the flash of light gradually disappeared, a series of huge figures appeared on the periphery of this industrial Hive City.

The tall figure stands outside the wall of Hive City, but even so it is clearly visible.

That is stationed at Lucius and belongs to Voidwalkers Titan Legion God-machines.

The rays of Teleportation light gradually extinguished.

From the largest Warmonger-class Emperor Titan to the smallest Warhound Titan, various models have been put on the ground by Teleportation.

Countless people in Hive City fell into horror at first, and then fell into confusion after seeing the conspicuous Voidwalkers Titan Legion logo on Titan.

Even among the local residents of Lucius, most Mortals have not had the opportunity to see God-machines, and there are even fewer people who are lucky enough to see parallel existence.

But it doesn't mean that they don't know what the appearance of God-machines means.

"Who is going to attack us?!"

"Who is the enemy? Daemon army? Imperium Traitors? Or those damn Xenos?!"

"I don't want to die yet."

"Give me weapons and I will fight too!"

The sudden arrival of the Titan Legion almost threw Forge World itself into chaos.

In Emperor Titan's cab, the captain in charge sitting in the driver's seat was connected to many pipes. While trying to appease Emperor Titan's irritable Machine Spirit, he turned his attention to Tech-Priest on the Communication Device screen in the cockpit.

"Fasor Priest, do you know how guilty this behavior is? You'd better pray that you can explain to your mentor what you did."

"Captain Warren, I know it very well, but as long as the profit is large enough, I don't think the instructor will blame me. Besides, Men of Iron has repaired the key core. I think there should be no problem if you temporarily leave the maintenance channel gate."

Unlike other Titans that were driven out of the Forge Temple maintenance room by Teleportation, this Emperor Titan is in an active state all year round. He is responsible for guarding the Forge World Lucius's maintenance channel from the surface to the artificial core.

It's just that Men of Iron didn't go through the passage at all when performing Artificial Sun maintenance. All Machine Body directly followed the mechanical structure and entered the Artificial Sun restraint device.

The leaked high temperature is enough to roast living organisms into mummies within seconds, but it is far from being a hindrance to Body of Steel, Machine Intelligence Servitors and Castellan.

When Iax first landed, it was received by Collegia Titanica Priest, and Fasor was one of them.

And his mentor is Sage, the chief of Lucius Adeptus Mechanicus, who is also a member of Collegia Titanica, and is the high-level technical commander of Voidwalkers Titan Legion.

After Iax was taken away from them by Valentin Sage, Fasor sent several Servo-skull along other routes to the square area where they gathered.

Then these Servo-skull relayed to him all the communication details between Iax and Valentin.

He even secretly recorded a half-Intelligence Core design drawing given by Iax.

After a simple calculation, Fasor fell into a frenzy. He used the communication system to contact all high-level personnel affiliated with Collegia Titanica, and then showed everything that happened in the square to those who were unable to attend or were still busy.

But Valentin and others have completely failed to notice what is wrong with these extremely common Servo-skull.

After all, as Sage and Priest, it is normal to have one or two Servo-skull around at any time.

What's more, there are so many Skitarii and others at the scene.

Servo-skull is flying all over the sky.

The captains in charge of Voidwalkers Titan Legion were jointly requested by Tech-Priest and had no choice but to board their respective Titan, preparing to take the initiative to display God-machines.

However, just as they controlled Titan to walk out of Forge Temple's maintenance room, Priest happened to see Iax actively requesting Ironstrider's drawings.

And later promised to replace the technology with equivalent value.

This made them completely unable to sit still.

In this case, they must show the most distinctive technology to attract Men of Iron's pursuit in order to maximize their profits.

Although Titan itself is an extremely valuable technological crystal, there is more than just Lucius in the world that can produce Titan.

Voidwalkers Titan Legion also has its own characteristics.

The impatience derived from Forge World Lucius makes Titan here extremely special in battle.

Many Titan Legion tend to adopt a slow but firm forward speed most of the time, because on the one hand this is conducive to the overall long-term use of Titan. After all, this puts less pressure on the reactor and operates more smoothly.

On the other hand, on most battlefields, no enemy can compare with God-machines in endurance, perseverance and even overall speed.

After all, Titan can march tirelessly and at a constant speed at a speed that is not too slow for a long time.

But this kind of battlefield stroll is not what Voidwalkers's supervisors like. They are more accustomed to following their own pace, and for a Lucius person, faster is better.

So, the Sages of Lucius began to use some dangerous gadgets to strengthen the Voidwalkers Titan Legion God-machines's action mechanism.

Although there were many surprises, the results were quite successful.

Coupled with the high-level training of the captain and his family, Voidwalkers's Titan's maneuvering speed was finally improved to an unprecedented level, even exceeding many previously recognized speed limits of Titan.

Titan in the running posture is enough to cover a distance of kilometers in a few steps, and the captain in charge of Voidwalkers calls this posture War March.

Even most Voidwalkers captains regard Machine Spirit's protests in a critical state under high-speed operation as a challenge that needs to be overcome, and a challenge that needs to be treated with corresponding respect, and they have done so through training.

Many cunning old captains have even learned and summed up many tricks so that Machine Spirit can be forced to continue working at the most critical edge when Machine Spirit is close to failure.

It was in this high-speed state that put Divine Machine on the critical edge that Voidwalkers developed their famous combat style and tactics.

A Titan-class surprise attack based on high-speed mobile combat that few other Titan Legions can match.

However, even so, the most valuable technology of the Voidwalkers Legion is not the Titan transformation technology, but the more exaggerated Titan Teleportation technology.

This is the only Titan Legion in Imperium that has mastered the Titan Teleportation ability.

After Iax recognized these giant Machine Body appearing in the void, it made actions that were in line with Collegia Titanica Priest's expectations.

Men of Iron gave up the unchecked target without hesitation, turned around and headed straight for the outskirts of Hive City.

Fasor and his group were quickly rushing to the feet of Titan.
