Chapter 17 Khorne: Brother, You Sit on the Throne and I Squat.
Godzilla is not strong enough to resist the main gun of the Tau mothership, but he can still destroy some small gunboats.
The transport boats began to be shot down one by one. Even the transport ships with deflectors (shields) turned on would be directly penetrated by Godzilla's radiation heat rays. It was not that the deflector defense was not strong enough, but that Godzilla's attack intensity was too high.
"Commander, the ground firepower is too strong, we can't land!"
"All combat suit units, start airborne, transport boats are transporting at a safer altitude!"
The Tau troops jumped directly out of the cabin of the transport boat and began to airborne in waves. When they were about to reach the ground, the jetpacks behind them started up, which served as a buffer for a smooth landing.
"Ground forces set up defensive positions, all small units focus on vehicle units and concentrate firepower for defensive operations!"
The ground vehicles and large combat suits of the Titans also began to form simple positions surrounded by small units. Countless fire warriors and drone soldiers formed a dense firepower network in the rainforest, and the missiles and beams of large combat suits flew across the rainforest.
However, what they didn't know was that they thought the rainforest was full of enemies.
However, there were only the lowest-level lizard beasts in the rainforest.
After a period of continuous bombardment, the Titans found that the trees in the rainforest were not much less, but their energy had been reduced by a large part.
'Thanks to the Titans for feeding. '
The tree would probably say this.
The damage was not much, but the tree absorbed a lot of energy and was almost full.
"Commander, we have established a position, please give the next combat order."
But there was no sound in the communication channel.
"Commander?"
Still no sound.
"The communication is interrupted?"
"Of course it is interrupted."
Isis smiled at the gate of the temple, her lizard tail swinging restlessly, and she seemed to be in a very happy mood.
"Do you think you can come to this planet as you like and leave as you like? You are not fighting with us lizardmen, you are fighting with the whole planet."
At the same time, the fleet of the Tau people was also in a panic.
The fingers of the Wind Clan were almost broken from operating the instruments, and they could not contact the ground forces.
"Commander, our contact with the ground forces has been interrupted."
"An electromagnetic magnetic field has appeared in the atmosphere of the entire planet, which has had a serious impact on our communication. Our vehicles and combat suits can still break through, but the communication channel cannot penetrate these electromagnetic interferences."
"What did you say?!"
Some planets have harsh environments, and the vehicles of the Tau people have long been equipped with the ability to resist electromagnetic interference.
But it is not so easy for the communication channel to break through electromagnetic interference, and it is even more difficult to maintain communication in an unstable environment.
"This is troublesome. We have lost contact with the ground forces."
"Commander, please calm down."
At this time, Ether, who was sitting in the most honorable position of the entire battleship, spoke.
"I can feel that the warriors of the Fire Clan are still alive. Don't panic. They just lost contact, not killed."
"Yes, I lost my composure."
If there is electromagnetic interference in the atmosphere, then we can only trust the judgment of the ground forces.
"Continue to send troops and let the transport ships deliver messages. Although primitive, at least we can maintain a certain communication capability."
Very good, the Tau people have already felt one of the darkness of this universe.
The battle situation of some mortal auxiliary forces in the neighboring empire is so complicated that they may have to use wired communication channels, or simply shout out through loudspeakers, because the subspace interference of some planets will make the heads of astropaths explode.
The interruption of communication is just the beginning.
The Tau people immediately built positions on the ground. It may not be as good as the trenches dug by Krieg with engineer shovels next door, but it is also a simple defensive fortification.
But the lizardmen have not launched an attack yet.
So much so that the Tau people still don't know what their enemies are.
However, soon a team of XV25 stealth combat suits brought intelligence about the enemy. Their figures appeared out of thin air. These combat suits have the ability to be invisible.
At the same time, a lizard's lower body also appeared.
"Sir, I brought the enemy's body."
"Very good."
The highest commander of the position looked at the body with appreciation. It was a lizard-like body. He immediately called a Kroot.
The Kroots, who have been introduced many times before, are an extremely powerful primitive race. They look a bit like people with bird heads, quite Indian style.
But don't underestimate them. The Kroots have melee capabilities comparable to green-skinned orcs, which greatly makes up for the Tau people's melee disadvantages.
At the same time, they have another characteristic, that is, they can eat corpses to analyze the enemy's genome and express this genome on their own bodies.
They even assimilated the genomes of the greenskins and the Eldar into their bodies, but the Tyranids could not. After the Tyranid corpses were eaten, they would destroy the genomes of the Kroots themselves, leading to the death of the Kroots.
"Eat this corpse and see what these creatures are."
The Kroot nodded, raised the lizard's tail, and opened his mouth to bite it.
His teeth were really good, and he didn't break his teeth. Instead, he bit through the scales of the lizard's skin, tore off a large piece of flesh and swallowed it.
Originally, everything was normal, and the commander of the Fire Clan was waiting for the Kroot's reply.
But suddenly, the Kroot's pupils suddenly widened, and he began to hold his head like crazy and scream, which made the commander of the Fire Clan frown and silently raised the ion rifle in his hand.
The body of the Kroot was changing. His flesh began to become more like the structure of a lizard, and sharp spikes began to grow on his back, and even the tail that the Kroot did not have was growing.
Just when others thought this was a normal manifestation of the Kroot's assimilation gene.
The Kroot suddenly pounced on the Fire Clan warrior closest to him.
But the moment he pounced, a large-caliber ion beam pierced his head.
The commander of the Fire Clan put down his gun. He had already felt something was wrong, but he didn't expect his intuition to come true.
"Now, pass this order to all ground troops: tell those Kroots that they are not allowed to eat the corpses of any creatures on this planet!!!"
As soon as the order was passed down, the commander of the Fire Clan keenly felt the shaking of the earth.
"They are coming, all warriors immediately reach the bunker position and take your positions!"
The battle originally full of technology felt like a World War II positional battle.
The commander of the Fire Clan looked at the rainforest in front of him, and the Fire Clan warriors were also on high alert.
The vibration was getting closer and closer. It seemed that it was the footsteps of some large number of creatures. Every Fire Clan warrior was mentally prepared to open fire.
Then, they saw a large group of giant lizards over 20 meters long rushing towards them with a terrifying momentum. At that moment, even the commander of the Fire Clan was shocked.
"Fire!"
The dense firepower began to tilt towards the enemy in front.
But those huge lizards actually withstood the attack of large-caliber ion rifles, and even the continuous bombardment of missiles did not have much impact on them, and crashed into the camp of the Tau people.
Godzilla watched this scene from behind and sighed.
'Remote damage reduction, melee damage maxed out, this is not a lizard man, this is a Khorne war gang. '
