…

At this time, in space, the main force of the Horus fleet has crossed the orbit of the four auxiliary stars, and is only a short distance away from the Canopy Star. It is expected that they will successfully reach the orbit of the Canopy Star within the next week.

"..."

At this time, standing by the porthole, the lights inside and outside the flagship reflected on Horus' resolute and expressionless face.

He didn't seem to have much thoughts, he just stared at the yellow-brown resource planet in the distance ahead with burning eyes.

Originally, there was no irreconcilable conflict between Terra, the Taiwei galaxy, and the humans in that sector. Horus originally planned to give each other the position of planetary governor at the beginning and did not intend to interfere too much in the affairs of this galaxy.

Yes, but luckily, even he did not expect that things would happen to this point.

But it's useless to think about anything now.

Because Horus knew that the war had begun and everything was inevitable. The only thing he could do was to quickly get what he wanted, and then destroy the world, the Canopy Star, and the human race in the sector as soon as possible.

, to the point of destroying this tiny galaxy together with the green skins, demons, Necrons and other existences under the macro cannon or cyclone torpedo of his battleship!

"Report!"

"Legion Commander, something happened on the resource star."

At this time, just when Horus was thinking about how to quickly accomplish the strategic goal and destroy everything on the Huagai Star, the fourth company commander Sejanus walked behind him and reported the relevant situation:

On that desolate resource planet, they discovered the former mines and resource collection bases of the humans in the sector. Of course, they have now been abandoned. Therefore, in addition to finding those dilapidated buildings and various dilapidated and useless

Nothing is gained except from the machine.

Obviously, the opponent's original large-scale collection and manufacturing base had been evacuated and evacuated in advance. The opponent had already been prepared for the arrival of their fleet. Therefore, the originally expected first ground war did not break out.

However, although the humans and bases in the sector had evacuated in advance, Sejanus still sent a battleship to check to see what was left on the planet.

However, what Sejanus never expected was that the battleship that was just going to investigate the situation soon came with bad news?

One of the mortal auxiliary troops, numbering at least several hundred people, suddenly lost contact while exploring and inspecting the base of a secret underground mining company. Then hundreds of people lost contact directly, and there was no news for two full hours?

After getting the news, Sejanus originally planned to let the battleship blast it to pieces. However, considering certain circumstances, he thought about it and came to the bridge of the flagship, planning to talk to the commander of the legion.

Horus asked to see if the other party had anything to say.

"..."

After hearing the description, Horus did not speak in a hurry. He just stood with Sejanus by the porthole of the bridge, looking at the yellow-brown planet in the distance that looked like a disk.

"Sejanus..."

"Are you worried that there is something there, or that it was left intentionally by the humans in the sector?"

After thinking about it, Horus probably knew what Sejanus was thinking, so he asked noncommittally.

"Not sure!"

"Legion Commander, I guess there may be some changes on this planet that we don't know about."

"Perhaps, the people in those sectors left some traps or traps when they retreated?"

"but……"

"Maybe it's something else that we have to venture into?"

Sejanus pondered for a moment and thought of some things that happened on the Canopy Star, such as the cunning star sector humans who divided certain experimental data into multiple parts and then kept them separately. He thought about it again and again, and finally had to smile bitterly and said

He replied very uncertainly.

If it weren't for the above considerations, the loss of contact with the hundreds of mortal auxiliary troops alone would be enough for him to directly order the warship to blast the area where the underground base is located and the earth's crust to pieces.

After all, it was just a desolate resource planet. If there was no reason to land on it, he felt it would be more cost-effective to just blast it to pieces.

"Ah!"

"What you said makes sense."

Hearing this, Horus nodded, confirming some of Sejanus's guesses and concerns.

"However, we can't stop just because of speculation, we must arrive at Huagai Star as planned!"

"so!"

"The fleet continues to move forward, and the original plan and itinerary remain unchanged!"

"As for here..."

"You put the Tenth Company Commander in charge and ask him to stay here with a team of elite Astartes warriors and several battleships. He must find out the truth as soon as possible, and then go to Huagai Star to meet us."

But soon, he smiled contemptuously, and then gave a direct order with a sharp and firm light in his eyes.

"!!"

"yes!"

"I understand. I will tell Gavelloken to make sure that he does his best to fulfill his mission!"

After receiving the accurate order, Sejanus did not dare to neglect, hurriedly stood at attention and saluted, then turned and left directly, going to the Tenth Company Commander of the Luna Wolves, Gavirloken, to convey the order of the original body.

""

"Time is running out"

"Everything here must be ended within a month!"

After Sejanus left, looking at the quiet starry sky outside the porthole, and thinking about the information he had just received about the direction of the Emperor's fleet, Horus couldn't help but clenched his fists and secretly made a decision.

made a certain determination.
