Chapter 307 05.0306: "Assault on the Control Bridge"
Horatio used his own specialized Servo-Skull to hack into the elevator's Thinker.
The machine was formatted and restarted, and the desecrated machine soul was purified.
"Controlling the target layer, target... Operational Intelligence Center."
The surrounding guardrails popped up from below, the motor started, and the steel cable pulled the lift, carrying the Hell's vanguards upstairs.
Click!
The elevator was in place, and before the heretic rebels who were guarding the elevator could turn around, the stun grenades that had been prepared were evenly fired into the entire command center.
The rebels wearing spiked gas masks were still dazzled and deafened by the strong light and loud noise, and were disoriented when they were killed one by one by the precise and deadly shooting of the Hell's Vanguards.
Louise stepped over the corpses in bulletproof armor with the Sky Eagle logo worn off and blasphemous emblems stamped on them, and walked in the front to search the deep command room.
As she stepped one foot over the threshold of the fire door, a renegade Planetary Defense Force officer hiding in the corner raised his knife and stabbed her collarbone.
But Louise, who had undergone the Navy's loyal successor surgery to strengthen her, reacted far better than ordinary people, even those who had received a small amount of Chaos Blessing.
Her right hand was as fast as lightning. She directly grabbed the other person's arm, then used the force to pull him closer and folded him under the armpit.
With a loud creaking sound, the entire forearm bone was twisted off by her. Then the female candidate officer locked the opponent's torso with both arms and struck him hard with her knees.
The alloy-wrapped steel knee broke several of the opponent's ribs with a dull sound. Then she broke off the tactical knife from the broken hand and stabbed it into the traitor's throat cleanly and neatly. She stirred it half a circle, and a red and white flower instantly bloomed in the enemy's throat.
After confirming that there was no second attacker nearby, Louise pushed aside the strangely twisted corpse that was temporarily serving as a human shield and continued to move forward.
On the other side, Horatio approached quickly with a naval bolt pistol in hand, firing as he walked, killing all the traitors on the operating table. Black blood and brain paste were all over the advanced meditator array marked with blasphemy symbols and the green fluorescent screen.
A man suddenly rushed out from the commander's lounge at the side door.
It took Horatio only tens of milliseconds to react to the surprise attack.
Before the opponent's power saber could chop him, he instinctively stabbed his power sword into the opponent's body, piercing through the abdomen, chest, and spine, piercing all the way through.
"Ah! Go to hell! The running dog of the Corpse King! You damn it..." The commander of the rebel star fortress was not dead. His bloodshot yellow eyes were filled with hatred, but the hatred soon turned into fear.
Horatio expressionlessly placed his iron hand on his head, and as the power armor's output continued to increase, the traitor screamed.
puff!
Finally, the entire skull burst with juice like a ripe fruit, and sticky body fluids flowed from his palms. He wiped his hands with the heretic's relatively neat and clean uniform, and threw the remaining headless corpse onto the floor of the lounge.
Horatio activated the decomposition field on the sword, evaporating and purifying the stained blood on the power sword, and the silver sword body returned to its original state.
Judging from his ill-fitting Orbital Defense Force officer's coat, he was probably the leader of the Star Fortress traitors.
"Report to the lieutenant. The combat command center has been cleared. The technical sergeant is hacking into the Star Fortress's main control system. We have gained total control of the Star Fortress's operations.
The second squad is moving up to seize the artillery control room, allowing Officer Collingwood to coordinate fleet maneuvers." Louise walked over to Horatio and reported.
Horatio transmitted the communication code into the Star Fortress communication platform.
Soon, Captain One-Eyed of the Indefatigable received a request for communication access.
"This is 'Angel's Whip', we have taken control of the enemy star fortress combat intelligence center."
The communications captain turned to look at the captain, indicating that the Lightning Strike Team had gained total control of the star fortress, and then began communicating to confirm the range of the fleet's maneuvers.
"Archie, I leave this to you." After confirming, Horatio handed the area to his companion.
"Yes, Lieutenant. In the following operations, I will open all the hatches on the road for you and try my best to block the enemy's attack."
The young man who was transmitting data turned his head and nodded, then turned his attention back to the signal guidance work at hand.
The Third Detachment of Hell's Vanguards was stationed on the bridge, while the Second Detachment was clearing out the rebels in other important command facilities.
The first detachment followed Horatio and took the shortest shortcut to the hangar where the bombers were being prepared for takeoff and landing. At this time, the huge armored fireproof door leading to the void on the shuttle apron closed without warning.
Several Doomsday Fire bombers that had just ignited and were accelerating to leave the hangar were unable to dodge.
It crashed directly into the fire door, and the burning wreckage caused a fire on the shuttle apron deck and also detonated the thermal bombs loaded inside.
In an instant, the 031 shuttle apron turned into a sea of flames.
The rebel officer in the hangar was confused about the situation and began to call the combat intelligence center to inquire about the situation, but there was no response on the walkie-talkie.
Even though they were slow to react, the rebels realized at this point that their battle center had been lost.
Cursing and shouting, they immediately began to organize troops to counterattack the combat center, trying to retake the brain of the star fortress.
But the Imperial Navy will not let them succeed easily.
After Horatio hacked into the Star Fortress CCTV network using a special code that only fleet liaison officers were qualified to use.
The surveillance cameras throughout the star fortress returned to the Empire's control, exposing the rebels' situation to the Imperial Navy task force.
Several Hell Guards in charge of the fire doors began to close the passages, dividing the rebels who were trying to gather and attack the battle center into small cabins.
Archie quickly guided the Indefatigable's armed boarding detachment via the Shark assault boat to land on the docking platform not far from the combat situation center.
More than a hundred heavily-armored soldiers rushed out of the assault boat. Using boarding shields and mobile breastworks, they quickly established a defensive position on the main road.
When the rebels broke open the hatch, what awaited them was the overwhelming amount of shotgun shells and fierce explosive arrows from the Imperial Navy.
For a moment, a fierce attack and defense battle broke out in the main passage of the cabin, with broken limbs and blood flying everywhere.
Horatio and Louise led the first detachment but did not participate in the battle. Instead, they took advantage of the chaos to go around to the hangar below.
The command communications within the star fortress were subject to unknown electromagnetic interference. The rebels in many sub-departments were unable to communicate effectively with each other and lost coordinated command. Many people were separated by a hatch and knew nothing about what was next door.
The entire traffic management within the star fortress fell into a chaotic state.
Horatio and Louise actually boarded the Star Fortress railcar right under the rebels' noses and drove to the shuttle ramp and hangar on the outer periphery of the central part of the Star Fortress. The rebels passing by actually thought they were their own people.
In other words, they simply didn't think that the Imperial Navy would have a special forces force capable of infiltrating the core area of the star fortress.
After the first detachment drove away to a safe distance, Louise pressed the detonator in her hand, blowing up a support railcar that was still speeding and full of rebels.
After seeing the burning wreckage of the railcar and the rebel soldiers who jumped out of the car with their bodies on fire and either fell to their death or rolled on the ground in flames, the commander of the transportation hub realized that the inner area where he was located had been infiltrated by enemy forces.
Therefore, they dispatched a large number of reinforcements that were supposed to be sent to the frontier troops that were beaten to a pulp by the Imperial Navy boarding team, to search for the non-existent Imperial Navy infiltration force near the transportation hub center.
The reason why Horatio was able to lead the rebels in circles was that the vanguard of the third detachment of the combat situation center was sorting out the route of action and the enemy situation for him through the main control closed-circuit television.
Unlike enemies who were blocked from front and back and were blind and deaf, no matter where he went, he only had to follow the planned route, opening any door he encountered and exhausting any enemy he encountered.
Combined with the bird's-eye view of his commanding hand and the servo skulls dancing around the enemy's heads, he was in a situation where he had an absolute intelligence advantage and the initiative.
The party lacking intelligence can only be led by him and Louise.
Louise braked the rail car and set a booby trap on it to block the pursuing reinforcements.
Horatio led two scouts to kill the rebel engineers in the maintenance passage, and the first detachment quickly and quietly arrived at the location of the Star Fortress Aviation Department and the largest hangar.
