The leader Iron Dragons Terminator raised his head and glanced at Necron Overlord standing high up, and then glanced at Forge Temple further away.

Complex ballistic calculations and attack angles are constantly jumping in the eyepiece.

The factory Necrons chose is not far from Freight Yard and Forge Temple.

The surrounding tall buildings had already been destroyed in the battle.

From here, you can directly see the entire Forge Temple across the broken Inner City high wall and some dilapidated building remains.

In order to highlight the grandeur of Forge Temple, Adeptus Mechanicus chose a higher location.

"Open a shooting port and let those Mortals directly use Shadowsword's Volcano Cannon to try long-range shooting."

"The surrounding Mortals troops slowly retreat to the outside. We will leave this area when everything is ready."

The Volcano Cannon equipped by Shadowsword is amazingly powerful, but they are not crazy enough to be blown apart by their own people together with Necrons.

The blazing metal storm, the roaring Missile, and the sticky incandescent flames merged into a destructive torrent and erupted on the battlefield!

The Salamanderss carefully changed their direction and tried their best to let those Inferno Bolter, Whirlwind Missile, and even Incinerator Cannon clear up the crooked building debris everywhere with various gestures that seemed to have missed their mark.

Krieg engineers carried explosives and set blasting points on the broken inner wall of Hive City.

"For Sanguinius! For redemption!"

Mol·Thorn let out a war cry.

The light of Disruption Field on Lamenting Greatsword surged to the extreme, and several Scarab were chopped down with a few swords.

They must buy some time to prepare for the crucial blow.

The firepower lost in planning must be replaced by life.

The Lamenterss rushed into the enemy group without fear, and behind them were not only the cousins of Deathwatch, but also the silent Krieg soldiers and the cursing Cadians.

"For Emperor! Cadia to stand tall!"

"Kill these Xenos bastards!"

With Necrons's quick and deadly counterattack, casualties increased at an extremely fast rate.

Even the elite Cadian Shock Troops and Krieg would often be beaten into powder by Gauss Beam within two shots on such a battlefield.

Deathwatch and Jump Assault Squad suffered even more serious losses.

Several Raven Guard warriors equipped with jetpacks were hit by dense Gaussian firepower from below in mid-air. Power Armour instantly dissipated in the green light. The damaged jetpacks did not even have time to explode before turning into ashes along with their owners.

Some soldiers were hit by the particle beam of the Doom Scythe fighter. After losing most of their bodies, they turned into fireballs and exploded in the sky.

Lamenters's Chapter Master Thorn himself was also grazed by a Phase Blade on his shoulder armor and was almost beheaded.

Seeing those Mortals soldiers who kept sacrificing their lives and Battle-Brother who fell one after another, Thorn was heartbroken.

"Hehehehe."

The battlefield echoed with contemptuous laughter, the sound was sharp and harsh.

Nehka Menach's metal head glowed with light.

"What an ugly struggle."

"Do you think I haven't discovered your purpose? Stupid creatures."

"It's too late, organism."

The scepter in his hand was raised high, and the Voidheart above glowed with astonishing light.

Raging energy surges within it.

A giant sphere of energy shining with green light quickly condensed in the sky above his head.

"Warning! The energy value identification range is exceeded."

A bright red reminder popped up in the eyepiece of each Astartes.

"Fire directly! Never let him unleash his attack!"

Realizing the danger, the Iron Dragonss couldn't care less at this moment and immediately shouted in the communication.

Their armor is more advanced than their cousins, with more powerful identification devices and higher reading limits, but even so they get the same warnings.

This means that the power of this attack will be extremely terrifying.

The Shadowsword crew members who received the order almost instinctively pressed the attack button the moment they heard the firing order coming from the communication.

Volcano Cannon sprayed out a blazing beam of light that engulfed the remaining buildings in the attack path. Although this would lose some of the attack power, there were no more options now.

However, before the attack arrived, Necron Overlord's raised scepter had also been lowered.

Green energy maintains a standard sphere appearing at the end of the attack envelope.

Volcano Cannon The fatal beam was blocked by this sphere and spread out in all directions at the moment of impact.

The disintegrating attack exploded in all directions.

Many Imperium troops were swallowed up by this collapsing beam.

Along with the painful wails that echoed on the battlefield, many Mortals soldiers and Astartes were vaporized together.

The huge shock wave even flew away those Salamanders wearing Terminator Armour.

A huge burning open space instantly appeared on the battlefield.

"No!"

The battlefield echoed with the heart-rending roars of the sons of Vulkan and Sons of Sanguinius.

The green ball of light did not disappear, but flew straight to Forge Temple not far away.

The power of the explosion is precisely limited.

The majestic energy was released, and green beams soared into the sky and straight into space.

The entire Forge Temple was completely swallowed up in an instant.

As the light dissipates, the giant hole on the ground that almost goes straight to the center of the earth can be clearly seen in space.

"Fragile life, your struggle is meaningless. I will grant you an equal death!"

Nehka Menach was satisfied with the results of her attack.

The hyperdimensional space connected to Voidheart has huge energy comparable to C'tan Shard, and the user can extract energy at will for attack and defense.

At the same time, this Relic also has the absolute ability to restrain energy.

Nehka Menach's concentrated attack even easily blocked Volcano Cannon's attack without collapsing.

Following the will of Overlord, this extremely solid energy body burst like a balloon the moment it touched Forge Temple, releasing all the terrifying energy within it.

"Destroy these fragile creatures!"

Nehka Menach waved her scepter again.

The Necrons troops below have once again stepped up their offensive.

"Retreat! Everyone retreat immediately! We have failed!"

Realizing that nothing could be done, the Imperium unit immediately made the final decision.

Mortals troops were asked by Lamenters to be the first to leave the battlefield.

Iron Dragon and Lamenters will cover everyone and leave last.

The landing craft originally used by Iron Dragon to land was given to these Mortals soldiers and the survivors in Hive City who had not been able to evacuate before leaving first.

Necrons people lined up and gradually spread to the surroundings tirelessly.

A large number of Tomb Blades (Tomb Blades) passed through Phase Portal and began to rush towards the retreating Imperium troops.

These Necrons light aircraft have similar positioning to Imperium's Hover Bike, but they can fight in space.

Twin Gauss Blasters and Twin Tesla Carbines continued to project intensive firepower from mid-air.

Many landing craft and Transport Aircraft carrying Mortals soldiers were destroyed by these Tomb Blades just after taking off.

Nehka Menach held the scepter and walked to the side of the platform, where a Catacomb Command Barge (Catacomb Command Barge) was floating there.

He enjoys the feeling of chasing down these fragile lives, which makes him feel that his hatred is satisfied.

In the deep pit left after Forge Temple disappeared, a huge Mechanical Units was moving cautiously deep in the bottom layer.
