Warhammer: In the Name of the Emperor

Chapter 555 The Rise of the Lion King: Fury of Steel

In the boundless void far away from the capital of the galaxy, the cold sunlight shines on the majestic fortress. It tilts its body and floats in the void. Its majestic wings spread majestically in the cold sunlight, welcoming the endless void in the distance. In its abdomen, several light spots broke away and rushed into the void with long tail flames.

On the background of the universe, a flashing grid-like object suddenly appeared. The central part of its honeycomb structure was sunken inward, as if it was pressed down by an external force. It sucked the emitted light spots into it instantly, and then expanded outward instantly. disappear.

Behind the grid gate, in the long bridge of twinkling stars, several meteor objects whizzed past, rushing forward along the teleportation avenue. The light flickered, and the energy traveled through the dust of the universe and the starry sky. At the other end, the firelight of the burning city illuminated the night sky.

The flames burned on the street, igniting an armored vehicle. The armored vehicle with the eagle emblem was on fire and was pushed away. Behind it, the Tau floating tank on the ground and the Hammerhead Shark floating tank drove through the street and crashed into it. Hit the roadblocks and debris along the way.

Around it, the Tau infantry advanced in the typical advancing formation of the Tau troops, with the hammerheads in front and the infantry behind. Unlike the human soldiers, the Tau soldiers were well protected. They wore full body armor. Wearing closed combat helmets with flat tactical antennas erected high and swinging on both sides of their heads, they held alien pulse rifles and advanced along both sides of the street.

Raging fire burned all around, shining on the Tau's armor. Among the Tau infantry, there were humans who only wore cloth clothes or improvised inferior armor. They painted their armor with Tau ring logo, and his face is also painted with blue paint.

Intelligent soldiers flew over their heads, and unmanned reconnaissance aircraft with two guns attached to them flew left and right in the air with a disk structure, scouting and warning everything around them. The information they brought echoed in the air. In the team leader's tactical headset.

On the turret of the Hammerhead Shark tank, the commander sat in the turret. He held a tactic in his hand and observed the flaming street ahead. On the side of the turret, a human servant held a gun and leaned against the turret.

"Go two blocks further and you'll be close to the Governor's Palace." "Very good, all for the Greater Good." "All for the Greater Good!"

They said, ignoring the defense soldiers who fell on the ground. The human soldiers had burnt marks on their bodies, and the pulsing green smoke remained on the armor on their chests. The Tau infantry stepped between the corpses, They advanced along the street with guns drawn. The sound of gunfire continued in the surroundings, and the rumble of cannons came from a distance.

But these threats are quickly away from them. The heavily armed troops of the National Defense Force are still on the horizon. The city is in chaos. The only remaining human guards are unable to stop them. They will only end up on this street.

But suddenly, there was a tearing sound in the air, as if a hole had been torn open in the sky, and a roaring hurricane was poured down. The Tau raised their heads and looked at the flashing grid that suddenly appeared in the sky under the flame clouds above their heads. , they suddenly shrank inward, and then several fireballs appeared from them.

The fireball fell from the sky and smashed between the city buildings. The high-rise buildings were smashed through the gap and smashed to the ground with the flying debris, hitting the city streets.

The ground instantly shattered, and a heavy roar echoed in front of the Tau. They stopped and looked at the remaining flames rising from the shallow pits on the surface. The smoke continued. From the thick fog, several figures stood up, and the aliens suddenly lifted their hands. Gun in hand.

The scanning interface penetrated the mist, and under the firelight, figures on the street appeared in the field of vision. Text emerged from the interface, accompanied by a high-pitched whisper, "Target lock, scan, alien, command generation, destroy organism."

In the mist, a silver spear thrust out fiercely, and its muzzle flashed with light for an instant, and then a ray of light shot out instantly, hitting the frontmost Tau infantryman. He almost evaporated from the world, covered in armor It failed to function for a moment, and the body turned into mist in the air.

The Tau looked at the disappearing companions, and then one of them raised his firearm, opened fire and shouted loudly, "Fire!" Then, there was a loud sound of gunfire, and countless pulse bullets were fired forward. The smoke was torn apart by the airflow, and dispersed in all directions, exposing them. out of subsequent existence.

They were a group of steel bodies. They were in human form, but they were definitely not human. The steel bodies were smooth and smooth, like water droplets. The strong bones were hidden behind the armor. The surging power ran through the whole body and rushed through the energy pipelines. , merged into the eyes, and instantly flashed with blood-red light.

The pulse light bullet hit him, and then instantly dissipated in the air. The silver-white skull-like face on both sides of the flashing red eyes instantly lifted up, looked to one side, raised the muzzle of the gun in his hand, and fired a shot. The muzzle of the gun did not fire anything. The bullet, but then, at the speed of light, caused the Tau tribe where the gun was pointing to disappear instantly. His body exploded into particles floating in the sky, rolling and scattering on the surface.

The steel creature looked in that direction, and dense pulse bullets hit him, as well as the steel men on the street. They stood up from the shallow pit, held the weapons in their hands, and took heavy steps. With the sound of footsteps, destruction followed. And arrived.

Unlike the Tau weapons, which have no effect on them, it is almost impossible to see clearly, let alone dodge the light ball. It can tear the Tau people apart instantly, and their full-body battle armor is useless in front of it, just like It's as if the butter is close to the stove, melting and disappearing instantly.

Light bullets continued to shoot through the streets. The Tau who were constantly moving and firing back were hit and disappeared. They kept running fast, trying to use the natural agility of the race and the auxiliary power of the battle armor to keep agitating and avoid the unknown enemy. Destruction fire, but soon they knew it would do nothing.

As if the light bombs were tracking, they continuously exploded accurately on the path they must pass. Whenever they came into contact, they would disappear instantly. Some people with better luck were contacted while moving quickly, and then they were blown away, only to land on the ground. Half of his body was left, and he fell to the ground, with dark red blood flowing all over the ground.

They became the only ones who shed blood in this confrontation, while the men of steel stepped on the blood with their iron feet, walking on the streets stained with dark red blood. As he walked on the streets, he kept getting all kinds of blood from around his body. He was violently shot at everywhere, but all the attacks were like stones thrown into the water, leaving nothing but splashes.

And he kept turning the eyes of the silver-white skeleton, silently shooting at the surroundings, and the rays flew away. The body that was hit instantly evaporated backwards into the air. His heavy footsteps crushed the broken gauntlet on the ground, causing the blue arm inside to shatter, squeezing out A large amount of blood appeared, and behind him, a small number of men of steel walked through the street.

Wherever they went, they left silent death behind. Without saying a word, they just opened fire at all the living creatures around them. The Tau infantry who rushed by were hit during the sprint, and their bodies exploded from the center in an instant. As fine particles floated into the air, the scarlet machine looked at him, then turned and looked at the explosion behind it.

The artillery fire from the floating vanguard came fiercely, and the man of steel raised his head. He looked at the several disc vanguards rushing overhead. The pulse guns attached to them fired fiercely, but in the end, as two guns popped out from his shoulders, Countless light filaments shot out from the tiny honeycomb muzzle. They intertwined in the air and weaved into a network of light. Then they slammed into the front of the soldier, instantly cutting it into countless pieces, and then exploded.

The light threads waved further, and they kept stroking around. The thin, hair-like threads were sharper than any sword. Even the undead's decomposition cutting knife, the light blade of the Tau could not compete with it. , their chopping will cause sparks to fly, but these tiny threads can cut the body into several sections without leaving even a trace.

The Tau who were running around quickly, moving and firing met with disaster. The light threads of the men of steel were woven together to form a huge luminous spider web around them. They swept across the street, destroying everything along the way. All organisms and metals are chopped into pieces.

The body of the Tau passed through the net and fell to the ground in a block without even a scream. The floating disks of sparks fell to the ground and were piled together with their masters.

The Man of Steel glanced at the streets full of debris. A round of artillery fire hit him behind him, and a Man of Steel was knocked out. However, this did not destroy it, or even cause any damage. It flew out, just because It was just the inertia of the explosion. After flying a few meters, it landed calmly. With its footsteps breaking the ground, it raised its head and looked at the armored vehicle ahead.

The hammerhead shark turned the pulse muzzle, and the energy in it flickered. In front of it, the accompanying Tau infantry were destroyed one by one by the exploding light bombs, leaving not even a trace to prove that they had existed.

"For the Greater Good!" the commander roared, waving his hand and pointing forward fiercely, the muzzle of his remaining Hammerhead Shark flashed, but the moment before firing, the Man of Steel flew over instantly, and he Flames spurted out from behind, falling from the sky and suddenly landing on the Hammerhead Shark's turret.

The commander looked at him with wide eyes, and pulled out the pulse pistol from his waist and pointed it at him, but before he could fire, he was caught by the iron hand. The palm clenched suddenly, crushing his pistol, and the commander's palm also He was crushed, but before he could scream, his head was suddenly pierced by the lightsaber deep in the Man of Steel's arm.

Under his arm, countless iron rings popped out instantly, then quickly lined up in a row and shot out sharp blades of light from the end. The commander's head was chopped off with a sword, flew out of the hammerhead shark and fell to the ground. Behind him, the hammer The head shark disappeared in the micro missiles fired from the missile pod that popped up from the Iron Man's shoulder.

Yes, it didn't explode, but disappeared. The missile instantly turned into a space vortex in the turret, tearing up everything around it and sucking it into it. The entire body of the hammerhead shark disintegrated in the stabbing, and disappeared after being sucked into the hole. .

The Man of Steel fell to the ground. He held the destructive light gun in his hand. A laser shot hit his face and exploded. He slowly turned his head and looked at the Tau corpses on the street and the burning people on the street. The pupils of the Tau followers trembled with fear in their eyes. Although their hands were holding guns, they were already shaking so much that they could not hold them steady.

The Man of Steel looked at them, and the other Man of Steel who came closer after wiping out all the Tau also came closer. They looked at the human heretics in silence, their eyes rolled, and a message box popped up in the interface, "Gene Scan: Humanity, is it to be eliminated? The order is updated to cancel the Nassimov Agreement.”

After the program was issued, the Man of Steel raised the gun in his hand and hit the human heretic holding the gun with one shot. The other Men of Steel behind him opened fire one after another, and screams suddenly spread everywhere, disappearing in the roaring sound of light bullets. movement.

The human traitors fought back desperately, but their Tau masters were unable to destroy them. How could they hope for those physical bullets? The bullet hit the surface of the mechanical body, the warhead shattered a few inches away from the skin, and then the entire projectile exploded on impact.

Light waves continued to light up on the surface of the bodies of steel. They raised their guns and fired. The bodies that were hit were not wearing full-body armor like the Tau, which showed the entire process after being hit in more detail. First, The skin tore apart as it vibrated violently in the sonic vibrations, and then the red skin and bones beneath it shattered one by one, shattering into tiny fragments in the air.

The screams rang out from the mouth, and the final syllables disappeared from bottom to top as the whole body disappeared. After the blood and flesh on the head evaporated, it ended with a white skull. Finally, the skull also melted in the air.

The men of steel stepped forward, approaching the human heretics who were retreating. Amidst the screams and body explosions, the leading man of steel stopped. Its footsteps touched the head of the Tau commander, but , a little strange, he looked down at the head, and then picked it up.

He looked at the face. On the flat side of the Tau without a nose, sparks appeared on both sides of the rolling eyes. The iron hand turned around, showing the gap in the neck. The sparks jumped out from there, illuminating the layer inside. Layers of wires and processor chips.

In the visual interface of the mechanical eye, the scanner was activated again, scanning from the inside of the head from the inside to the outside. "Scan results, non-organic body, mechanical structure, are you going to read it further? The command has been received and is being executed."

The ends of his fingers slid around in an instant, and a cable stretched out from the opened knuckles, and then climbed into the head of the Tau commander. The data was read, and the reflection flashed on the mechanical eyeball. The light in a scene was not here, but in a dim room. The commander's eyes were facing several burly figures.

They stood in the hazy darkness, and the shadows covered their faces, but the hazy light outside the door behind them outlined the outline of the power armor they were wearing. One of them spoke, "Bewitch the Tau people, forge orders, Take them to the Governor's Mansion and kill everyone there, understand?"

"Accepting orders." The commander said mechanically. The hazy vision suddenly stopped, and a beam of light swept across the environment. In the corner of the vision, the program window popped up, and the receiver terminal mounted on the Man of Steel began to construct the surrounding mirror image. In the remaining sensor device, the remaining human figure's face was rebuilt, but suddenly, the picture became distorted, and was eventually completely replaced by a splash screen.

The commander's head exploded, and black smoke rolled out from it, completely turning it into useless scrap metal. The man of steel looked at the charred head, and then a burst of blue light flashed in his eyes, "Destroy the remaining humans." Rebels, return to the fortress with the data obtained so far. "Accepted, the order is being executed."

The Man of Steel threw away the head at hand, picked up the gun and looked at the streets where blood and flesh were scattered on the side. He turned around randomly and walked away with the gun. The light flickered, calling out the desperate screams of the aliens and heretics. The screams started from The billowing black smoke rising from the streets along with the fires in the shops on both sides eventually mixed with other screams around them.

On the side of the black smoke rising to the sky, in a tall building in the burning city, two tall figures stood together, overlooking the streets swept by the steel men below.

"She has obtained the data, and the structure will reveal the location of that place." One of them spoke.

"It doesn't matter, he has been suspicious for a long time anyway. He sent the Ultramarines forward, and sooner or later we will be found." Another person responded, standing on the edge of the tall building, looking at the screaming human heretics below, their bodies Continuously smashing and exploding, blood was scattered around, and the men of steel walked over it, approaching the next person.

"What to do now?" the first person continued to ask, and he raised his head, raised a palm and then clenched it suddenly, "Then it's time to start the final plan, eliminate the settlements, you know what to do ”

The person in front nodded silently, then put his iron fist on his chest and saluted, "Understood, Master, what about the Ultramarines?" "You know what to do." "Then take your leave, Master."

The man turned around and strode away, leaving only the man in front of the window. He stood in front of the broken wall of the tall building. The flames rose and the heat wave lifted the gray-white hood and illuminated the gray-white beard. , and the green armor underneath.
