Warhammer 40k: Terra Collector

Fortunately, the biomass stored in the [Hive Fleet] is still enough to support the Tyranid swarm to the next world.

That is a [Hive World] belonging to the [Lanster Node]!

[Valkivino]

Type: [Hive World]

Orbital radius: 6841 kilometers.

Planet residents: about 30 billion.

Tithe: Yes.

As early as about two centuries ago, the [Genestealers] belonging to the Tyranids had quietly infected this imperial world.

Through some unknown connection, the [Genestealer Patriarch] has presented all the information about the planet to the [Hive Mind].

[Valkivino], which has six [Astra Militarum] corps and a secondary naval fleet stationed, was not originally among the planned offensive targets of the [Hive Mind].

But because of the disastrous defeat of [Sloven], this huge [Hive Fleet] is now in urgent need of replenishing sufficient biomass.

The 30 billion people of the Empire on Valkivino are undoubtedly an irresistible temptation for the Hive Will.

Under the guidance of the Genestealer, the mothership of the Hive Fleet has connected the Gravity Bridge to the Hive World.

Although the Tyranids do not have the technology similar to Subspace Navigation, even if it is just the inefficient Gravity Navigation... it is enough to send the Hive Fleet to the Hive World Valkivino within half a month.

The surging malice from the Hive Will is approaching!

And in the cold Supreme Heaven, the fallen Emperor's children are also planning a conspiracy against the Imperial Regent.

The Master of Change sitting on the Crystal Throne showed a harsh and evil smile!

Whether it is conspiracy or unpredictable fate, it can make this Chaos God born from twisted emotions feel unprecedented pleasure.

…

By analyzing the route of the Chrome people's hasty escape, the Imperial Regent has roughly guessed the direction of the Tyranid swarm's invasion.

After several days of [subspace navigation], the [Death Watch] led by the Imperial Regent finally arrived at the Forge World [Sloven].

At this moment, the raging flames covering the entire planet have long been burned out! !

Everything on the planet has turned into ashes in the flames! ! !

The exposed rocks have turned into diamond-like crystals in the high temperature, and the eternal light of the stars shines on them, reflecting the dreamy and brilliant light like a rainbow...

But no one is intoxicated by this beautiful scenery!

Through some ancient psychic spells, hundreds of think tanks belonging to [Death Watch] restored the former scene of this planet.

The final march of the dead of the [Death Legion] is shocking! And the determination shown by the [Forge General] in resisting foreign enemies makes every Death Watch veteran stand in awe.

"May their souls return to the [Golden Throne]!" The Imperial Regent, who was sitting on the throne, slowly stood up, expressing his respect and mourning for the warriors with silent silence.

After a long silence, the golden pupils of the Imperial Regent reflected a sharp light again.

Just as the [Imperial Regent] worried, the malicious [Tyranids]... finally descended on the sacred territory of the Emperor again.

The former [Empire] might be overwhelmed by the appearance of the Tyranids!

But at this moment, decades of reform and recuperation have allowed this lion to return to its peak.

The malicious [Tyranids] will pay the price for their blasphemous acts!

[Glorious Expedition] is not the end!

When this magnificent war comes to an end, the Empire will once again embark on a journey to the unknown beyond the galaxy...

All heretics who are full of malice towards mankind will be turned into ashes under the shining of the Emperor's light.

…

Through the star map of [Ultrastar] and the psychic prediction ability of the think tanks, the Imperial Regent has basically locked on the next attack target of the Tyranids.

The hive world with a population of 30 billion people - [Valkivino]!

Following the will of the Imperial Regent, the [astropaths] in the fleet have warned Valkivino of the invasion of the Zerg tide.

But unfortunately, [Valkivino] did not respond at all.

Everyone knows what this means!

If nothing unexpected happens, the [warp shadow] raised by the [Hive Will] has hindered the planet's astropathic communication.

In other words, Valkivino is now in a precarious situation!

The Imperial Regent did not continue to waste time on this dead planet.

Rather than commemorating the dead, the Imperial Regent is more willing to make every effort... to save the living who have not yet been swallowed by death!

The [warp engine] began to roar!

The [Subspace Rift] emitting blasphemous light stretches across the cold galaxy.

Accompanied by the devout prayers of the [Mechanical Priests], the huge [Death Watch] fleet slowly sailed into the sea of ​​souls filled with madness.

The distance between [Valkivino] and [Sloven] is not far.

According to the calculations of the [Navigator], after a short voyage of several Terra days... the fleet led by the Imperial Regent can reach the destination.

The only question now is whether [Valkivino] can support the support of the Imperial Regent?

...

At the same time, [Hive World] Valkivino.

Similar to [Sloven] in the past, [Valkivino] also sensed the existence of the Zerg before the Hive Fleet officially landed.

But unlike [Forge World], most areas above Valkivino are covered by the towering [Hive City].

In terms of the number of [anti-aircraft artillery] and [heavy firepower array] alone, Valkivino does not even have one-third of Sloven.

But relying on the hard work of the [Navy Fleet], the Hive Fleet has never been able to truly occupy the planet's near-Earth orbit.

Failure to occupy the crucial [planetary orbit] means that the [Hive Will] cannot send Zerg to the surface of the planet on a large scale.

It is precisely because of this that [Valkivino] suffered almost no major losses in the first few days of the Zerg invasion.

Even the few who died were killed because they were not careful enough and were pierced through the vital parts by cannon fodder Zergs such as [Zenglings] and [Knifeworms] with sharp chitinous limbs...

The [Planetary Governor] of the planet even arrogantly believed that Valkiverro would be the first hive world in the history of the Empire to defeat the Zerg.

But compared with the ideal, the bloody reality often seems very bleak.

The [Imperial Navy] stationed on Valkiverro is, after all, only a secondary fleet with a small number of warships.

Compared with the Zerg Hive Fleet, which has the ability to regenerate and is almost endless, everything about the Imperial Fleet seems so weak!
