The Emperor’s Angel of Death

Accompanying the changes in armor and the Flame Sun Sword, Solzhenitsyn himself also felt an unprecedented experience. In the past, no matter what the situation was when using Gray Pith, he would feel cold, but this time it was different. Instead, he felt his insides burning, as if a fire was lit inside his body, and his vision also became different. He could see many tiny, translucent cracks in the air, and gray matter flowing out of them. Moreover, this substance was constantly communicating or exchanging with the giant egg that was shattering.

All psychic power is related to the Warp, and Solzhenitsyn immediately understood what he was seeing.

This is the most basic way the Warp affects the real world.

The originally thick psychic power was also blown away by the cold wind at this moment—

Roar!

Almost at the same time, a hoarse scream exploded in Solzhenitsyn's mind like a newborn cry, as if feeling pain.

Then the giant egg exploded, and the strong airflow mixed with spirit bone fragments hit Solzhenitsyn's armor, making a crisp tinkling sound, but he didn't move a step. He just held the sword and looked at the thing being conceived inside with interest.

To be honest, he was quite surprised, because he had seen the appearance of a Norn Queen in the Tyranid bestiary, but what was in front of him was not a Norn Queen at all.

It was more like a butterfly hatched from a cocoon. The gray-white body shell, which seemed to be made of spirit bones, still had a unique moist texture. Solzhenitsyn estimated that the entire body was more than 50 meters long, with slender limbs and a long tail. When the neck stretched out from the body section by section, a xenos head with a streamlined arc covered with carapace also protruded from the unfolded carapace.

This head did look a bit like a Norn Queen. There was a long horn at the front of the head, and thick layers of overlapping carapace plates spread out in a triangular shape to the back of the head. There were no eyes, but there were four pairs of narrow, pale luminous organs like glass罩. When the lower jaw split open, you could see the dense teeth. There were also fin-like membranes on both sides of the head, releasing psychic energy, like burning blue flames.

And its entire body was even more unique. It looked very much like a spirit bone construct, but through some luminous membranes, you could see the pulse tubes pumping with psychic energy, with a complex network similar to brain nerves, and it looked a bit familiar—

It only took a few seconds for Solzhenitsyn to remember that this was the pulse structure of the Eldar Infinity Circuit!?

When it slowly opened the soft wings on its back, its entire volume increased more than threefold compared to the giant egg. The wings were also very unique, not feather-like or membranous, but ribbon-like like aquatic organisms. They looked exceptionally gorgeous and surrounded by unique colors, seeming to reflect all external light.

But before long, the soft wings quickly hardened, turning into layers of thin spirit bone-like material, but very complex grid and rune structures appeared on them.

As it landed heavily on the ground, this behemoth let out a deafening roar at Solzhenitsyn.

For some reason, the appearance of this thing reminded Solzhenitsyn of the ancient psychic war beasts recorded in the Eldar ancient books that Veronica had introduced to him, which were also an important part of Eldar culture, generally called—

Dragon!

How could a Norn Queen turn into this dragon-like form in Eldar mythology?

But before he could think about it, this strange creature seemed to feel the threat from Solzhenitsyn and launched an attack first. Some kind of energy filled its body, and its wings were also covered with energy like blue flames swaying.

Solzhenitsyn felt a strong life energy at this time, which made him feel even stranger.

No sooner said than done, the huge creature disappeared from the spot at an incredible speed, then appeared above Solzhenitsyn, and then its front paws slammed down heavily.

With a bang, the spirit bone floor shattered into pieces, and the behemoth raised its head, opened its mouth as if trying to release some kind of psychic breath, but the energy quickly dimmed under the suppression of the domain power. Realizing that it could not attack the opponent with psychic power, although the body was huge, the speed of this beast was still very fast, and it pounced on Solzhenitsyn.

Solzhenitsyn jumped back and accurately dodged its claws. The huge hook-shaped claws on the six toes scratched long cuts on the spirit bone floor.

Malan'tai—

After failing to hit with one blow, the behemoth emitted a shrill melody, and its opened wings rattled, but the movements could almost be said to be gentle. Then a unique flame flew out from the wings, wrapping around Solzhenitsyn like splashing vines.

This flame climbed onto Solzhenitsyn's armor, seeming to reach into his heart.

But Solzhenitsyn just laughed loudly. When the behemoth tried to tear him apart, he dodged and plunged his weapon deeply into its forelimb.

At that moment, sparks of pain penetrated the mist, and Solzhenitsyn's power directly hit the depths of the behemoth's violent mind.

Its murmurs began to be intermittent, seemingly accompanied by heart-wrenching screams.

But Solzhenitsyn's fist had already punched through its shell with a snap, letting him confirm that it was indeed spirit bone, and then in the instant that the behemoth quickly spun around in place trying to sweep him away with its tail, he jumped directly onto its back.

Realizing that the opponent was on its body, this creature forcibly burst out with terrifying psychic power even under suppression. Its entire body seemed to be burning, and then countless beams of light enough to tear the soul apart spurted out from the tiny luminous organs on its body, making it look like a huge lighting ball. Even the huge energy caused the surrounding spirit bone structure to begin to show signs of melting. You must know that the high-temperature resistance of spirit bone is only stronger than the plasteel of the Space Marine power armor.

However, all of this was meaningless to Solzhenitsyn. Those energies dissipated on his cold armor. Instead, the behemoth's constant flapping and struggling caused him some trouble. He had no choice but to grab the bone plate behind the opponent's head, then raise his hand.

The next second, a cold, needle-like blade pierced through the bone plate and went straight into the opponent's well-protected, bloated brain, but Solzhenitsyn didn't really kill it out of curiosity, only a small part of the sword tip pierced in.

However, this was enough. The behemoth instantly seemed to have been drained of all its strength, and directly plopped down on the ground.

Malan'tai.

Just as Solzhenitsyn let go of the sword hilt and was considering how to deal with this thing, a faint voice sounded in his mind. He was stunned for a moment, then realized that it was the thing under his feet that was making the sound.

Malan'tai.

"Hmm?"

Solzhenitsyn guessed that this Norn Queen might want to say something. Its current state was indeed very strange. It emitted thoughts and also revealed malice, but it did not have the cold and gloomy sense of thinking of the Tyranids.

So he re-gripped the sword hilt—
