Warhammer 40 A New Hope

"Then we should have more people."

After saying that, leaping electric light appeared on Zhang Yi's left hand, and then extended upwards as if growing, forming an extremely conspicuous "thunder tree" in the mist.

"Huh~ That should be enough." Zhang Yi looked at the 'Thunder Tree' spreading in the sky and said with a breath. "Go and guide our people as much as possible..."

"After all, it's not just our people who will come looking for us..."

. . . . . .

Bang bang bang－－!

Squeak--Biubiubiu!

"Report ammunition situation!"

"The rotary plasma machine gun still has half an energy box left!"

"There are ten magazines left in the bolter!"

"There are three and a half universal energy packs left!"

A large number of enemy corpses piled up in front of the five-man team of Space Marines led by Kerr. Fortunately, the team was not separated when the terrain changed drastically.

And precisely because of this, their exploration went relatively smoothly. Although they were moved underground, there were more enemies underground than they had imagined, which also caused their ammunition to be consumed quickly.

"I have contacted another team, and they have found a way to the ground." The Pathfinder Space Marine equipped with reconnaissance equipment said to Kerr, the leader of the team. "They have shared the map with us, and I will pass it on to the rest of the team..."

"The latest news is that there are Chaos Space Marines from an unknown place. No, these people seem to be... [Chaos Warriors]?"

"...Don't tell me it's Archaon..." (Kerr)

"We haven't found the unfortunate Chaos Lord yet, but...it's possible..."

"Ah~ (covering face), speed up..."

"Before that 'unlucky' guy catches up..."

Stepping over the still warm corpses of the enemies, the Pathfinder team sped up and continued to move towards the target location.

And as they approached the road to the ground, they did encounter those who looked like Chaos Space Marines wearing heavy armor.

"Release the reconnaissance robots, and keep communications silent." (Kerr)

As Kerr gave the order, two spherical mechanical bodies were released and slowly rolled towards the target direction.

Judging from the images that came back, about five tall Chaos Warriors wearing heavy black armor and holding double-sheathed heavy swords were wandering near the exit they were going to, and judging from their actions, they seemed very mechanical.

"Quickly kill the enemy and get out of here." (Kerr)

Beep beep—boom!

The small spherical reconnaissance robot rolled all the way to the feet of the two enemies and exploded with a sharp alarm.

After hearing the explosion, Kerr immediately took out his own pure energy sword and rushed towards the enemy.

Tear it--!

The platinum-colored blade of light pierced through the chest of the leading [Chaos Warrior] warrior, and moved all the way back, stabbing that section of the blade into another [Chaos Warrior] and finally nailing the two to the wall.

Buzz－－!

A [Chaos Warrior] was locked by the gravity generator, and the next moment a huge gravity force hit him, crushing him into a pool of meat paste.

The remaining two [Chaos Warriors] were also quickly dealt with by the others, and from then on there was no longer any obstruction to the upward passage.

"Hurry up and join up with the other teams!"

Bear--!

At this moment, black flames suddenly appeared at the other end of the underground passage, and three spots of light appeared in the darkness.

"Is there really an Archaon?" A Pathfinder Space Marine in charge of the rear guard said, looking at the figure in the darkness in the distance. "Archaon was stabbed to death by two pairs of spearmen..."

"Stop complaining! Go!"

Two plasma grenades were thrown into the middle of the passage, and the violent explosion immediately collapsed the surrounding walls, blocking Archaon's way forward.

Seeing this, Archaon slowly walked over to the pile of rubble that blocked his way, and the flame on the greatsword in his hand automatically attached itself to it as if it had life.

In just a few minutes, the rubble that blocked the entire underground passage was completely melted.

"Who am I?"

～～～～～～～～～～～～～

"We have gathered at least thirty Space Marines, ten Custodians, and Primarch Vulkan and three Pathfinder teams have also been found." Constantine said. "The small number of enemies around have also been dealt with..."

"But there are reports that someone has seen the Chaos Lord, Archaon, who was once the Chosen One of the Four Gods, and he is nearby..."

"The exact location of the Living Saint is still unclear, and communication is not working... Damn it."

Tzeentch changed the terrain of the entire planet, splitting up the originally gathered teams and separating Zhang Yi from the layers of protection.

The dense fog blocked medium and long-distance communications and also affected the distance of visual reconnaissance.

Fortunately, Zhang Yi, who has "supernatural resistance", cannot be predicted, which means that Jianqi's side cannot quickly and accurately obtain Zhang Yi's location.

Just when Constantine was at a loss, a 'lightning tree' emitting blue light appeared in front of them in the distance.

"Notify everyone, including those on the way to the rendezvous, to head towards the lightning's location! As fast as possible!"

"For the hope of the empire!"

307. Interlude (Part )

Kyle I galaxy, above Zhang Yi's planet

Perturabo, who had become a giant mechanical beast due to his demonic ascension, had his first confrontation with Magnus not long ago. After both sides left some scars on each other, they chose to retreat at the same time.

A steady tactic. As the Primarch of the Iron Warriors Chapter, Perturabo could choose such a tactic until he achieved his goal, but Magnus and the others could not - the longer the time dragged on, the more disadvantageous it would be for Zhang Yi.

However, Magnus had already sensed Tzeentch's movements, and his power was slipping away because of his betrayal.

The battle continued, and as more and more Chaos warships passed through the warp storm and arrived near the planet, the situation became increasingly unfavorable for the Empire.

The Empire had limited troops at its disposal, and almost all of its support forces were blocked by the Warp Storm.

And in this world, two unexpected troops appeared on the battlefield.

Dark Eldar and Orks

The greenskin ships barely paused after reappearing, and rushed towards where the battle was most intense. However, several Dark Eldar ships remained silent after reappearing, trying to bypass the battlefield where fierce fighting was taking place.

"It seems that the 'blue soft-bodied creature' has gone too far again." Magnus said as he looked at the Orc ships that had joined the battle. "His broadcast not only told the truth to ordinary people in the Empire..."

"We also let as many other races as possible confirm the boy's abilities and attract them over."

"Gene Father, many of our warriors are getting weaker." A Thousand Sons Space Marine said. "Although it is still within expectations, if it continues like this..."

"I know better than you," Magnus said. "Hold on, if my father is not lying to me, help is coming soon."

"Send ships to draw the main Ork fleet here and let them fight against Pi... Perturabo and his descendants..."

"Distribute the [Artificial Souls] as insurance, and let everyone be prepared at all times..."

"This won't be easy..."

～～～～～～～～～～～～～

"This is Commander Gabriel Angelos. Has everyone else made it to the surface safely? Over."

[This is Tarkus. We are with Davion (three-combination dreadnought mech). This place is shrouded in the energy of the subspace. Only the large communication device on his mech is capable of long-range communication...] (Tarkus)

[This is Seres. My team and I have landed successfully and are conducting a reconnaissance mission... Damn, there is nothing to see in this environment!] (Seres)

[This is Thaddeus. Our communications equipment has received a message from the commander of the Custodians. I will now connect it to the squad communication.] (Thaddeus)

[Calling all warriors of the Empire, everyone immediately head towards the towers in the direction of XXX. XXX coordinates, and bring back the Nameless One at all costs. Repeat...] (Constantine)

[I see the tall towers in that direction, not far from us] (Cyrus)

[What are we waiting for? If we can save the living saint and the Primarch of the New Empire, we will definitely get a lot of good things! ] (Thaddeus)

[. . . You're just thinking about the new equipment you got from the Pathfinder, right?] (Tarkus)

Don't you want it? (Thaddeus)

. . . . . .

"Catch him! Catch him and we can all..."

Whoosh—boom!

Zhang Yi's metal bricks hit the ground like a cannonball. The huge impact force directly destroyed the surrounding buildings that looked like building blocks, and dust flew everywhere.

Whoosh--bang!

"It hurts, it hurts, it hurts - I still couldn't control the speed well." Zhang Yi said, grabbing his hand.

Zhang Yi's extremely conspicuous huge "thunder tree" not only pointed out the direction for Constantine and others, but also pointed out the direction for Chaos.

Surrounding that tall tower, more and more sounds of gunfire have appeared around this group of towers.

Some of the sounds were from the nearby Empire and Chaos exchanging fire, but more of them were from different Chaos factions exchanging fire directly - this was considered normal.

"It looks like they already know my approximate location." Zhang Yi looked at the corpses in front of him and listened to the sound of gunfire in the distance, and said, "Move, move, the sound just now might be..."

"I found him."

At this time, not far away, a Chaos Space Marine with the emblem of the Iron Warriors Chapter was standing there, looking at Zhang Yi quietly.

"...Depend on?"

Zhang Yi looked at the enemy Space Marine in front of him with some nervousness, because this was the first time he encountered a real Chaos Space Marine.

But soon, Zhang Yi discovered that the Iron Warrior Space Marine did not rush up to grab him directly. Instead, he looked at him with a bit of... contempt on his face?

Seeing this, Zhang Yi suddenly became angry.

Yes, I have said it many times. Because of his positioning and strength, there are very few records of him fighting alone, which makes many people think that he cannot fight - which is indeed the case compared with other primarchs.

The enemy Space Marine was the same. He did not think that this weak (compared to the Space Marines) mortal in front of him could pose any threat to him. Because of this, he was not in a hurry to capture him. He would take a group of Astra Militarum seriously, but a short and incompetent Primarch who didn't even have a gun? What could he do to him? Kill himself with the metal brick in his hand? He was not stupid.

"You look down on me, don't you?"

call out--!

[The Immortal Gold Brick] came at him like a cannonball, but the Chaos Marine turned slightly to avoid the metal brick that flew past him.

"snort...?!"

As the Chaos Space Marine looked at the metal brick he had dodged with disdain, snorted coldly and turned his head, a large fist covered in chitinous substance hit his helmet.

[Nurgle: Growth, Chitinous Shell]

[Khorne: Strength and speed enhancement]

Bang--!

The heaviness of everything pushed him back and almost knocked him down.

However, before he could fully stand, Zhang Yi fell directly on his face and grabbed his helmet with both hands.

"You're the only one who looks down on me, right?!"

[Tzeentch: Psionic Lightning]

Sizzle－－!

A strong electric current instantly swept through the Chaos Space Marine's body, and the grenade launcher in his hand was thrown to the ground.

"No matter how weak I am, I am still the [Five Gods' Choice]! Who the hell are you?! Will your father cry for you if you die?! How dare you look down on me?!"

“Ugh—!”

After a long period of "electric therapy", the [Iron Warrior] Space Marine finally found an opportunity to grab Zhang Yi who was jumping on his face and threw him down.

[Tzeentch: Simulation - Inherent Time Control - 10 times]

Zhang Yi, who was supposed to be thrown to the ground, suddenly accelerated, recalled the flying metal brick and caught it in his hand, and pounced on the enemy again.

The Iron Warrior Space Marine, who had recovered a little, stretched out his hand to try to block Zhang Yi who was rushing towards him, but just as he was about to touch him, Zhang Yi twisted his body in the air and dodged.

[Slaanesh: Agility Increased]

"!"
