  Chapter 268 Midnight (for subscription)

   Ryan did not respond.

  He stared at the tactical screen in front of him.

  The pulsating data shines on his face.

   Judging from the situation of several confrontations in the past.

   This fellow Koz must have set up a series of traps in the palace, waiting for him to enter.

   Rushing to engage in surface combat will only give Curz, who is good at stealth combat and laying traps, a chance.

  It was like that in Macragge.

  Obviously in the territory of the loyalists of the empire, with the advantage, Guilliman and he were almost plotted against by Curz.

   Now coming to the surface of the planet Tagusa, it is nothing more than a repeat of the past.

  The current empire has completed technological upgrades.

   It’s time for Koz to understand what the times have changed.

   “First clear the ground defense firepower at a fixed point.” Ryan pointed to the screen, which showed the defense points of the enemy’s firepower, “Kill their fangs and the ability to resist.”

   Although Koz is a traitor, his strategic vision is not covered.

  The defensive firepower deployed is enough to fight against several times the troops. If you count his insidious tricks, I am afraid that it will take a lot of energy and sacrifice to break through the defense.

   “The weapon system is ready.” The weapon director opened the weapon interface one by one. In front of him, a holographic tactical sphere was shining, and the red bombing area was specially marked.

  Some dotted lines flicker and form, depicting the trajectory and end position of the light spear and missile.

  Following the last calibration and intelligence confirmation, the director of weapons ordered the orbital bombing.

  Tapsa’s clouds were stirred by terrifying energy, making a thunderous sound.

  The spear of light reflected the entire dark sky.

  Static electricity moves across the sky like a mad scientist’s experimental setup.

  Every anti-aircraft artillery is precisely locked.

  Accompanied by the screams of the soldiers, tower-like flames rose up, and the billowing smoke made the reflection of the fire very clear.

  Fire emplacements one after another were reduced to rubble by energy lances and high-energy shells.

  The fangs of the city were immediately pulled out by the empire.

   Killed any possibility of resistance.

   Standing on the balcony of a palace, Curz stared at the sky.

  Looking at the flames that light up half the city in the distance.

   There was a trace of consternation on his face.

   This is not in line with the lion’s style.

   Launch orbital bombing so simply, destroy the enemy’s possible counterattack first.

   This is Perturabo’s fire coverage style of play.

  He was a little uncertain whether the opponent was the lion Lion or the blacksmith Perturabo.

  I thought that my provocation would make the opponent choose airborne combat.

   Unexpectedly, the other party was so cautious.

  Kurz disappeared into the darkness.

  Choose a part that looks real from countless phantoms, and extract useful information from them.

   After clearing the anti-aircraft firepower, Ryan will choose to use the superior firepower to compress his hiding space and destroy the trap he set.

  He had to be patient.

   Until the Lion comes.

   At that time, it was when they officially started to confront each other.

  Through the optical detection device, Ryan watched the city illuminated by the fire.

   Amber pupils reflect the flow of data, supernatural intelligence pays attention to every piece of information that flows across the screen.

  Lion knows every bombing like the back of his hand.

  Their attack trajectory, target and effect to be achieved.

  The Lions have a firm grip on these things, making sure that every corner is covered.

   Wait until there is nothing on the ground to stop Imperial air power.

  The lion showed a smile and gave a new order.

“Release the unmanned detection aircraft and find a way to lock the position of Midnight Ghost. Let the fighters prepare, as long as they find the target and carry out a wave of bombing first, don’t get close to the opponent.” Ryan said: “We can’t give him the latent combat that Curz is good at. This opportunity.”

  The viability of the original body is beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

   Not to mention scum like Koz.

  I think back then, this damned traitor was able to hide for so long on his flagship – the Indomitable Truth.

   Also made so many things during the Second Empire.

   Wanting to kill Curz, the current battle is really not enough.

“clear.”

“clear.”

   Other departments on the battleship responded to Lane’s order.

  The crew carried out Ryan’s orders.

  The landing deck is operational.

  Accompanied by the hissing sound of the hydraulic device, the huge metal hatch slowly opened under the rapidly flashing red indicator light.

  The extreme cold of the void poured into the cabin, condensing the moisture in the air into frost, reflecting the red emergency lights.

  The metal friction sound from the movement of the giant mechanical arm pushed the heavy fighters onto the booster track.

   Under an orderly command, several fighter squadrons were released.

  Their target is Curz hiding in the palace.

  Warplanes will bomb Curze’s possible hiding places, weakening the latent ability of Midnight Ghost first.

  A large number of unmanned detection devices were released by transport planes and scattered to the huge palace complex.

   They buzzed and moved at high speed in the dark.

  Only the sharpest eyes can catch them.

   Seeing these things from the illusion, Curz’s eyes became serious.

  Ling’s trickiness has skyrocketed.

  With a cautious style of play that is completely out of line with his character, Koz felt helpless.

  The unmanned detection device is only the size of a fist, in a spherical shape, with a built-in miniaturized force field drive and anti-gravity suspension device.

   Has high-speed flight and invisible ray radar detection capabilities.

  Coz imagined destroying them, but learned from the illusion that these things share a database and a control center.

  In addition to these, there are several insurance measures for the unmanned detection ball group.

  Several Imperial commanders connected to the console remotely controlled these probe balls.

  Any attempt to cheat the program cannot escape their eyes.

   Destroying a few of them is meaningless, but will expose his position.

   Once traces are found, orbital bombing and fighter jets will follow.

  Any suspected trap devices found will also be destroyed by the pulsing light they release.

   In front of these little guys, Koz was suppressed and unable to use his abilities, so he could only flee around passively.

   Dodge the onslaught of Imperial artillery.

  Koz’s stealth ability is very good, but the dense detection **** are everywhere, and they form a large net.

   And Curz is the prey in this big net.

   Whether he gets caught or touches the net, it’s just as bad for him.

  The empire did not conduct a landing operation from beginning to end.

   Ryan didn’t even show his face.

   This style of play made Koz panic, and he wanted to teach Ryan a lesson.

   But in the current situation, they clearly want to consume him to death.

  Koz wandered around the palace relying on illusions, trying to avoid the bombing of the empire as much as possible.

  Wait until the palace is in ruins and covered in flames.

  After most of the traps he set up were destroyed.

  Kurz, who was hiding in the ruins, finally saw the phantom he wanted to see.

  Lian came to Tagusa with the dark angels.

  The lion himself came and captured him.

  I want him to be put in a cage like Fulgrim and Perturabo, and sent back to Terra.

  Koz licked his sharp claws.

   There is no fear at all, but a faint excitement.

  In the ruined palace complex, Ryan’s footsteps were extremely loud.

  After completing the process of weakening the prey, he chose to go into battle and catch Curz himself.

  His sons and the Imperial Air Force blocked the entire palace complex, and deployed unmanned detection **** in every possible place.

  Koz is like a wild beast driven to a corner, with nowhere to escape.

  The Dark Angels are ready.

  They will never let their prey escape.

  Of course, Curz’s ability should not be underestimated.

   Ryan knew that if Midnight Ghost wanted to escape, the other party would definitely be able to find a way to escape.

   This is why he chose to enter the ruins alone.

   Ryan wants to let Curz know that he is coming.

Alone.

  Standing on the platform, Ryan looked around the burning palace, and crackling sounds came from the distant flames.

  The bombing has stopped, but the flames have not stopped.

  The air is filled with heat and the pungent smell of the bomb explosion.

  The long sword in his hand was activated, Ryan held the cold hilt tightly, and the tactical panel built into the battle armor drew a three-dimensional imaging map of the palace complex for him.

  The entire palace has no secrets in his eyes, and he can clearly see every moving object.

  Curz might be able to hide and keep his face.

   But when he moves, no matter how far apart, Ryan can detect it immediately through a large number of unmanned detection balls.

  The teleportation icon is displayed in front of Ryan, and he only needs one command to send him back to the battleship.

  Curz will never win this fight.

   Ryan is invincible.

  Because from the beginning, Ryan didn’t think about playing one-on-one with him fairly.

  He just wanted to catch that bastard, beat him hard in the face, stuff him into a cage, and throw him into the company of Terra, Perturabo and the others.

  Ryan walked among the ruins. The buildings here were scorched black, and bricks and stones were scattered in many places.

   This is where Curze was last seen.

  Fighters conducted a round of bombing here.

   After destroying a few detection balls, he disappeared again.

   Ryan knew he was hiding in this area.

  Fires still burning and crackling in the ruins.

  Lian looked around, his iron boots stepped on the gravel and rubble, crushing it into powder.

  Suddenly, a cold light suddenly appeared in the darkness, attacking his face.

  Ryan saw the current time from the panel of the battle armor.

   It was midnight.
