Chapter 159 Destruction Storm: An Uncomfortable Evacuation

Generally speaking, starports are open-air, and most starports are built in open areas, because the main task of starports is to transport materials, load and unload goods, and take off and land, and the open terrain is also convenient for docking large ships. So most starports are open-air, or semi-open-air.

But Cadia's is different. It is strictly protected like most of the buildings. The movable armor cover and granite structure cover the dock and runway, which protects the place tightly.

And the target of its protection is the large starship in the dock controlled by countless heavy support frames, gantry cranes and mechanical arms.

The entrance gates of the Starport quickly opened to both sides, and Celestine flew into the dock. She landed on the ground and her huge wings opened and closed slightly behind her. Behind her, a large number of Cadian civilians and guard soldiers came from several entrances Influx everywhere.

It has to be said that Cadia is a militarized planet, and its people have crushed the entire empire in terms of discipline and organizational ability. The men, women, and children of Cadia calmly combined on the deck. Gather in batches with the organization, and load their luggage onto the transport vehicle under the command of professional Cadia soldiers.

In a very short period of time, the luggage and key supplies began to be packed, and no one was sitting on the deck crying, crying, or in a hurry, and soon all the Cadians who might soon become refugees began to act together. Under the command of the captain, he began to participate in transportation, organization and loading and unloading.

At first, many people were frustrated with the regret of the home planet that was about to be abandoned. Many people wanted to stay and live and die with Cadia, but after the Lord Creed made a high-spirited speech, these Cadia The Sons of Ya accepted the order that they would abandon Cadia and flee to the stars.

Cadia may fall, but as long as they, the sons of Cadia, are still alive, and they are still alive somewhere in the empire, then Cadia will never fall, because they are Cadia.

Celestine looked at the crowded deck. Thousands of refugees preparing to evacuate gathered here, and other evacuation teams also gathered in the remaining starports. Hundreds of millions of Cadians will take the starship to leave. Gone.

"Sergeant Major, Blackstone Fortress is about to hit the planet! We have less than two hours left, can the evacuation work be completed in time?" Celestine asked, the sergeant major with the gun on his back nodded affirmatively, staring behind him Several huge landing decks of the ship are still open, and transport vehicles and refugees have also started to board the ship.

Under the unique and efficient organizational power of the Cadia people, Cadia's retreat appeared extremely efficient. Thousands of refugees began to board the ship in an orderly manner, without panic or competition for escape opportunities.

Perhaps until now, for many people, even if they died in Cadia, it would not be a big deal to die on their home planet.

"Yes, my lord, we will complete all boarding work within two hours. According to the order, we have abandoned all heavy weapons and armored vehicles, and only transported people, which reduces a lot of workload."

Celestine nodded in satisfaction, and then signaled to the sergeant major to leave. After the latter saluted, he immediately went to organize the work. Before Celestine's eyes, the restraint structures around the starship as tall as a building began to open one by one. The huge mechanical arm and support frame retracted to the sides, and white cooling gas sprayed out.

The starship roared, and the engine began to warm up and start.

"Bless the Emperor, everything is going well." Captain Drantius came from a distance. He carried a halberd and walked from a group of space warriors. Lustine could tell at a glance that the fighters of the Black Templar had also returned.

The bald-headed Marshal Amalik was wearing a black sword, directing his subordinates to prepare for the evacuation, and the Space Marines of the remaining chapters also began preparations under the orders of their respective commanders.

The soldiers of the Great Crusade era obeyed the orders of the captain of the shield guards, and they were also the fastest to organize. The shadow master had already begun to lead the team and boarded the ship from behind the refugee team.

Everything on the deck was in order, which made the captain of the shield guard very satisfied. He walked up to Celestine and looked at the starship under preparation together with her.

"I asked Marshal Amalik if he regretted that he ignored the order and caused the bastion to almost fall before we arrived." The captain of the shield guard said, Celestine looked at the unplugged fuel pump and the energy delivery belt They are being disconnected one by one, which also means that the fuel tank is full.

"What did he say?" Celestine asked, and the captain of the shield guard snorted, holding his halberd, "He said he was very remorseful and ashamed, and he would swear to the Emperor to pay for his sins with his life, But he does not regret his decision to stick to the gate of the end."

"Because the attacking Iron Warriors humiliated Rogg Dorn, he had to defend the honor of the Primarch, so he vowed to hold his ground and beat the traitors back, and the traitors did retreat, so his oath was fulfilled, so he to come here."

"So, if Abaddon hadn't ordered the ground force to retreat, he planned to take the soldiers and the Iron Warriors to die together, and be smashed into the air by the Blackstone Fortress?" "Yes." "Ha, it really is the son of Dorne."

"That's wrong. Although Lord Rogge Dorn is stubborn, he also understands right and wrong. He knows what kind of decision is right to make."

A mechanical sound interrupted the communication between Celestine and the captain of the shield guard. She turned her head and looked at the great sage of the Mechanic Cult who was coming. She looked at Bailey, who was almost as tall as the captain of the shield guard of the imperial army. Sallyu Kaur.

"I didn't expect to see you here, Kaul." Celestine said, Kaul's mechanical eyes turned twice, and he looked down at Celestine in front of him, "Indeed, I came here by accident because of an important job."

"What job?" The captain of the shield guard asked differently. Belisariu Kaul watched the captain turn his mechanical arm, and tapped his fingers on the scepter lightly.

"An important mission, and it has been successful." "What mission? Tell the sage."

Belisarius Kaul told them the story about finding the Black Stone Obelisk and knowing how to use it quickly, proficiently and in a very Mechanicist style.

A meaningless, purely mechanistic explanation, you know, the kind full of data, procedures and principles, more like listening to a paper report, but it is indeed understandable.

Celestine frowned, and she looked at Caul in front of her, "So you've found a way to possibly close the Eye of Terror, and you're trying, but here you are, ready to board the ship and leave .”

"Please don't misunderstand me, living saint, I don't need to flee because of fear, I have other important tasks to perform." "What important task?" The captain of the shield guard asked again.

"No comment." Kaul responded coldly. He didn't have any fear in the face of the angry expression of the imperial guards. He just replied quietly, just like a classic Mechanicus member.

"I left the machine servants to carry out automated program operations. I have authorized them to start the black market obelisk and start testing. If the experiment fails, their losses can be accepted."

"I must leave, and go to Macragge, to carry out an ancient agreement between me and the Ultramarines Chapter, which must not be hindered or questioned."

Kaul gave a series of replies coldly and seriously, while Celestine looked at him, slightly confused, "I hope your test starts after we leave Cadia, when the warp power is sucked away The feeling of making me feel a little uncomfortable."

In fact, it was pain, as if her own soul was about to be sucked away, her mind was like thunder and lightning, she was exhausted and extremely painful, and she could even feel the feeling of the emperor sitting on the golden throne.

It is hard to imagine how he has persisted for ten thousand years under such torture.

Celestine rubbed his head with an embarrassed look on his face, while Kaul watched him turn his mechanical eyes, "Ah, unfortunately, according to my program, the activation time is about here." "When?" Sailor Sting asked, "Now."

Suddenly, that feeling came again, and Celestine fell limply to the ground. If the captain of the shield guard hadn't helped her in time, she would have fallen to the ground.

Celestine's limbs were paralyzed with pain on her face, the light on her body began to be sucked away little by little, and her wings also began to become dim and lifeless.

Surroundings, earthquake-like earthquakes spread to the star port. The panicked people looked around, and then regained their composure amidst the shout of the sergeant major. He ordered to speed up boarding, and the entire team became efficient It works.

Obviously, for them, they thought that the Blackstone Fortress was about to hit, so the speed of evacuation began to increase suddenly.

"We must evacuate as soon as possible. Abaddon will definitely try his best to stop us and make a last-ditch effort." Kaur said, signaling to the captain of the shield guard to leave, and Derantius hugged Celestine, a typical princess. Holding her in his arms.

Celestine's head rested on the company commander's chest, and the tall golden giant walked towards the starship's evacuation deck, and Kaul squirmed his huge body to follow.

Celestine put her hands on the company commander's chest, and she smiled wryly, "Only one person has ever hugged me like that."

"Who is that lucky guy?" the company commander asked, obviously not having any inappropriate emotions or feelings towards Celestine, this is something that a Custodian must understand.

Celestine smiled wryly, and leaned into the arms of the company commander, "An old man."
