Human Light Umbrella

Done.

The flying formation carried them and quickly headed for the pyramid.

Wait for the formation to approach.

The four Viking fighters in charge of escort stood out, deployed the magazines in the belly of the aircraft, and fired more than a dozen ground-to-ground missiles towards the bottom of the pyramid.

"Shua~------!"

"Boom! Boom~!"

The missiles trailed white tail flames, and landed at the entrance of the flood pile one by one, and the violent explosion instantly cleared a fairly clean landing area.

Afterwards, the four Vikings quickly turned left and right, circled around and adjusted the angle of the nose at a slower speed, and then fired a wave of machine guns to stabilize the created landing area.

The transport boat also took this opportunity to lower its altitude and quickly flew to the mid-air of the landing area.

Hover without touching the ground, unfold the tail hatch, and unload the long-awaited Primarch and Glory Guard.

Then the transport boat closed the hatch and moved away from the ground. The four Viking fighters also ended their ground attack, and the escort transport boat returned to high altitude.

Look at the land area again.

Magnus unleashed a psychic barrier of reddish light that completely enveloped the crowd, trying to keep them from contact with the Flood.

"howl!!"

"Gulu~."

Surrounding the crowd, the combat body and the infected spores, which let out a strange roar, are trying to hit the barrier.

"Crack~! Crack~!"

As long as the infection spores touch the barrier, they will break apart one after another unstoppably.

But the combat body with extremely tenacious vitality kept hammering at the barrier, and soon...

"Crack...crack~!"

The barrier, which can resist most physical attacks, was hit by a seemingly ordinary smash, and it produced extremely insignificant lines that looked like glass cracks.

The sixty honor guards were not idle either.

"嘡! 嘡! 嘡!"

While Magnus maintained the barrier to protect everyone from heading towards the interior of the pyramid, the Glory Guards used parallel or heavy bolt guns to continuously spit out "fire snakes" towards the flood wave.

And different from the result of the plasma attack, the bolt bombs that can tear and collapse the body can truly flood the combat body and temporarily lose the ability to move.

From this point of view, it would be more effective to use live ammunition weapons to deal with the Flood Demon.

And several Sekhmets who are good at using psychic energy control the parallel bolt gun with their left hand, and wave their right hand forward, releasing a dazzling red light lightning.

"Crack!" several times.

Even though the power of the psychic lightning was suppressed, it still burned dozens of fighting body flood demons.

The next group of people marched against the current against the "flood" and went deep into the interior of the pyramid facility.

Chapter 271 Thousand Eyes, Recycler, Manager

The interior of the pyramid facility.

Magnus and Leon led the Glory Guard through the entrance, and came to a spacious hall with an aesthetics that humans can easily understand, and a square and flat architectural style.

The light of artificial stars sprinkled into it through multiple reflections, combined with the cyan-blue shimmer overflowing from the regular gaps, making this place even brighter.

However, in the hall at this moment, except for the top that remained the same, the bottom and surrounding areas were almost completely polluted by the Flood.

At the corner between the metal wall and the floor, sticky fungus-like "living" plants are spread all over, twisting and wriggling constantly, and spraying turbid gas through tiny holes.

However, the most densely packed infection spores in the hall should be the countless fighting body Flood Demon.

The arc-shaped spiritual energy barrier created by Magnus made them look like a solitary boat sailing against the current in a corpse-colored ocean.

"Wow! Wow!"

"Crack!!"

"Ri~ whoosh!"

The Honor Guard used bolts, psionics, and mounted plasma cannons to clear the way for the upper regions of the pyramid.

Many paladins even raised their right hands, took off the power giant sword on their backs, and after holding it firmly, used the Terminator's reactor to supply energy, producing a turquoise energy stand to wrap the blade.

Even their Primarch, Leon, took down the "Lion King Epee", which was nearly three and a half meters long and had a cold blade.

As Sui Bian's gunman, Leon still has a Cassius gun attached to the back of his power armor for emergencies.

Looking at the seemingly inexhaustible flood demon.

See also Barrier with frequent fissures.

Magnus and Leon under the helmet looked dignified, especially Magnus who needed to constantly release spiritual energy to maintain the barrier.

After a real confrontation, the two primarchs discovered that the Flood is extremely resistant to psionic energy, and can also suppress the use of psionic energy by psykers.

Based on these characteristics, the Flood Demon is indeed like a weapon, specifically aimed at psykers, or a weapon aimed at different dimensions.

Although substantive spiritual attacks, such as the spiritual lightning released by Sekhmet, can still scorch the combat body, their power is far less than before.

Moreover, in order to thoroughly prove that the Flood is a weapon against psychic energy, Magnus immediately released a psychic energy pulse, trying to make the infected spores and combat bodies "explode" themselves.

But after the pulse, the Flood wave was safe and sound, which showed that the conjecture of the two Primarchs was correct.

Followed by.

While maintaining the barrier, Magnus raised his clenched right hand forward and said in a deep voice, "Since you guys can't let yourself explode, then let's devour you with a sea of ​​flames."

talking.

The five fingers of Magnus' right hand suddenly stretched out, causing a circle of raging fire to ignite "out of thin air" around the barrier.

"Hoo~-------!"

Then, as he said, the fire swept across the sky and covered the sky, and wherever it went, living fungi, infection spores, and various forms of the Flood were all reduced to ashes.

In just two breaths, the "sea of ​​fire" successfully emptied the spacious hall and even the Flood Demon gathered in the bottom area of ​​the pyramid.

Even though the Flood will make the actual psionic attack far worse than before, this is a "sea of ​​fire" released by a Primarch, not a "lightning" released by a Sekhmet.

"call…"

Seeing that the flood wave was temporarily emptied, Magnus took a light breath and relieved a little of his fatigue.

Without hindrance, everyone left the hall at a faster pace, and passed through a "Z" shaped passage without a word, gradually approaching the middle layer of the pyramid, and finally reached the air corridor that was enough to cross the area.

One came here.

The two primarchs were in a trance, returning to their childhood when they were studying and living in the brood.

Because looking down the corridor, there are neatly arranged cylindrical breeding tanks, which are very similar to the breeding tanks that produce tyrants or hunters in the brood.

But the most obvious difference is that the breeding tanks of the mother's nest have transparent tank walls, while those below are non-transparent.

From this point of view, the Brutes took the Flood sealed in the breeding tank as a weapon that could assist them in completely destroying the elite fleet, or even the entire elite race.

As the origin of the leaked Flood, the area below the air corridor has become the most suitable habitat for the Flood.

Humid, warm and rotten.

However, apart from the infected spores scattered among the cultivation tanks, and various forms of flood demons, the most vigilant...

It is a group of indescribable "sarcomas".

The body is huge, like splicing and gluing the bodies of elites and ghost beasts to form a messy "sarcoma".

Its height is on par with the air corridor.

suddenly!

"Gollum...gollum..."

With the sound of the viscous object unfolding, the top of the "sarcoma" opened densely, with thousands of "eyes" of different sizes and colors, staring at the people in the air corridor.

"... "

Witnessing such a scene that is difficult for ordinary people to look at directly, and even directly collapses, the two Primarchs and the Glory Guard did not show any surprise or panic.

But Magnus found that if he wanted to continue to maintain the barrier, the spiritual energy consumption was actually several times that of before.

"It turned out to be...human..."

At this time, he, and everyone else, heard extremely thick nasal voice, slightly stuttering, but quite "sincere" words:

"Destroying...a different space...makes our goals...unite. If we are willing to cooperate and cease the war, then we can...complete the goals as soon as possible.

Before that, I can also...help...human beings...solve the Covenant Empire, any race that has...hostility, win-win..."

While talking about this group of "sarcomas", it is actually constantly releasing some kind of wave band that can interfere with the normal thinking of intelligent life.

Such distorted appearance characteristics, as well as the release of deceptive wave bands, are enough to prove that this group of "sarcomas" is a corpse brain beast that represents the Flood's escape from the wild state and is ready to lead the Flood to continue to evolve.

As for the reason for stuttering, it is because the Gravemind is still in its infancy, which means it has not yet fully formed.

"... "

However, the Glory Guards, who have been keeping silent all this time, ignored the "cooperation" and "win-win" of Gravemind Beast.

I saw that they had already raised their guns and aimed at the uncomfortable eyes.

"Wow! Wow!"

"Pfft! Pfft!"

The moment the fire snake was spit out from the muzzle of the gun, Thousand Eyes were "poked and exploded" one after another.

Now that the psychic energy has been continuously suppressed, the Sekhmets no longer release psychic lightning, and instead adopt the fire output of parallel bolt guns.

And the four paladins with plasma cannons on their left arm armor even fired four blue light cannons at the Gravemind.

In the end, the Gravemind directly "exploded".

"Wow~!"

The dark green blood exuding a rotten smell fell to the surroundings like rain.

But from the beginning to the end, the corpse brain beast did not let out a single wail, as if its body was destroyed, it was no big deal.

Because Leon and Magnus knew that destroying the Gravemind's body would only buy some time, and before long, the Flood would be able to "pile up" another body for the Gravemind to use.

Looking at the alarmed infected spores and combat bodies, they are rushing towards the air corridor where they are.

In order to get it done once and for all, and with the absence of the Gravemind, Magnus once again released the "sea of ​​fire" after the effect of suppressing psionic energy was weakened.

After the fire dissipated and the high-temperature "purification" was completed, everyone did not stay too long, and those who left the corridor continued to move forward.

soon.

They came to a gate in the top area of ​​the pyramid.

The gates, walls, and floors bear the marks of plasma cannon blasts, as well as dried purple and red blood stains, pointing to a fierce battle.

Take a look.

Leon found a terminal-style device on the right side of the gate.

See here.

Holding the sword in his right hand, Leon took the initiative to walk out of the spiritual energy barrier, came to the terminal and stretched out his left hand.

The induction is the approach of "human beings", and the terminal is successfully activated to generate a blue ball of light the size of a football.

The moment Leon's left hand came into contact with the ball of light, the gate that had been sealed for a long time was finally opened again, so that everyone could continue to the top and core area of ​​the pyramid.

Wait for everyone to walk in.

Leon manipulated the terminal installed here to close the gate to ensure that the Flood would not be disturbed during the investigation.

Waiting for him to turn around and look around.

Leon found that in this empty room with weak light and a clean and tidy floor, there was only one translucent crystalline sphere floating in the center that was only twice the size of a golf ball.

The Glory Guards dispersed and kept vigilant, while Magnus lifted the energy shield barrier and walked not far from the sphere with Leon.
