Warhammer 40 A New Hope

【They are not An An An...】

Jinn, who was speaking, suddenly seemed to be stuck, and then his whole body began to blur and finally disappeared.

"Experiments have proven..." Kashuu, who appeared out of nowhere, came out with an unknown device and said, "The creations of the so-called twin gods are not out of reach and beyond our control..."

"That means they are not impossible to kill."

Jinn's words were interrupted, and Kaxiu ignored everyone's gazes and walked straight towards the [Lamp of Knowledge] that had fallen to the ground.

However, at this moment, accompanied by rose petals, a red figure picked up the [Lamp of Knowledge] that had fallen on the ground, and then appeared beside Zhang Yi.

"...I thought that lamp was also within the scope of the transaction." Kaxiu said to Ruby who was hiding behind Zhang Yi and holding the [Lamp of Knowledge].

"I didn't agree." Zhang Yi said. "Besides, you made the whole scene very tense."

"You want to make trouble? You want the [Silent King] to come and talk to you?"

In response to Zhang Yi's words, Kaxiu shrugged and took a few steps back.

"I understand your questions very well." Zhang Yi looked at Ruby and the others and said, "But before that..."

At this moment, everyone felt the ground begin to shake, as if something was rushing towards them.

"How about solving the problem at hand first?"

355.Saren: Where are my men? Where are all my men?

Salem's attack on Haven came as expected, with a large number of slayers rushing towards the city.

On the safe haven side, thanks to the advance notice from Kro and others, the help from the Funa people from Trapped Beast Island, and the presence of the little cat, the guards were not very panicked when the attack came.

The first attack of the beasts, which served as the beginning and the fuse of negative emotions, was steadily caught and did not cause too much panic, but Seren's attack was not just that.

With the power of [Autumn Girl], Cinder sneaks into the safe haven with Amber, Hazel and others, and tries to obtain the holy weapon and blow up the city's communication tower to replicate the destruction of Beacon City.

Ordinary hunters are simply unable to resist Xinde and others. After all, the power of the "Four Seasons Girls" can only be regarded as a second-tier existence in this world.

When Zhang Yi and others came to the ground, the guards and hunters outside had already been cleared out by Xinde, and a large number of people fell down.

"Well, they have got the holy weapon." Looking at the [Lamp of Knowledge] in Ruby's hand, Xinde, whose half body was covered by the beast of death, said, "This will save us a lot of time..."

Zhang Yi and others came out, which made Xinde swallow his words and took a step back.

"Go ahead, what are you afraid of?" Zhang Yi said. "Keep on being arrogant."

"...I am indeed no match for you." Xinde said. "But it's not me you need to deal with either."

Roar--!

With a roar, a huge Leviathan beast emerged from the sea, accompanied by a large number of sea and flying beasts, and attacked the port.

"Even if it's you, you can't take care of both sides at the same time, right?" Xinde said. "What are you going to do? Watch the beast destroy the city? Or let me take the holy weapon?"

After saying that, Xinde began to gather her strength and further familiarize herself with the power of [Autumn Girl]. Combined with the power brought by the fusion of the Slaughter Beast, Xinde believed that she had the ability to hold Zhang Yi back in the battle until the Slaughter Beast destroyed the city or took away the holy weapon.

But he obviously didn't know what Zhang Yi was capable of.

Xinde's words made everyone look at Zhang Yi again, because in this situation, it seemed that only Zhang Yi, the mysterious hunter uncle, had a solution.

In this regard, Zhang Yi looked at the Leviathan beast that was gradually approaching the waves, turned around, and circles of blue and gold magic halos appeared on Zhang Yi's left hand.

Seeing his opponent making a move, Xinde immediately attacked, and the scorching flames rushed towards Zhang Yi and the others.

[Petrified Demon Eye]

The attacking flames suddenly stopped the next moment, and turned into flaming stones that shattered on the ground, and Gorgon stood in front of everyone.

"You damn monster!"

"You're like this now, and you're calling me a monster?" Gorgon looked down at the half-human, half-ghost Xinde and said, "I'm a monster, but I have people who care about me. Do you have someone like you? A Cinderella who's loved by no one?"

This was undoubtedly salt in the wound for Xinde, as she soared into the air, gathered her fire into a bow and shot at Gorgon and the others in the air.

Her followers Amber and others also faced off against Qiang, Ruby and others.

"Hazel," Kro and Raven also drew their weapons at this time and looked at their former friend.

"Kro, Raven."

Unlike the others who were eyeing the attack eagerly, Hazel, a low-key-looking, muscular man with dark brown hair and hazel eyes, a former student of Beacon and one of the elite hunters against Xinde, was not in a hurry to take action.

He betrayed Ozpin because of his sister's death, but he did not fall.

"Where is Ozpin?" Hazel inserted four dust crystal pillars into his arms, and the power of the dust crystals flowed through his body. "I'm only looking for him."

"I don't know," Crowe responded. "I haven't seen him since Beacon."

"So, after selecting another group of children to die, he went into hiding again?!" Hazel suddenly raised her voice and said, "The coward! The murderer!"

"..."

If it were in the past, Kro would definitely refute Hazel's words, but after watching the past scenes again, he couldn't refute it.

At this time, Zhang Yi finally took action. The aperture in his hand suddenly expanded and rose into the air until it covered the entire city.

Then, a blue-gold halo fell.

bite--!

After a flash of light, the world returned to peace, as if nothing had happened.

The beasts in the sea are still moving towards the city, and the beasts on land are also... Why is it so quiet?

"What did you do?!" Xinde floated in the air and asked Zhang Yi, who looked a little weak on the ground.

"I have selectively put some targets into the [Mirror Space]." Zhang Yi said. "You can simply think that I have brought you into the 'Mirror', the scope is the entire city, and this is the first time I have brought so many people in."

"The space here is modeled after the Haven, it's almost exactly the same, except there's no one there."

"The destruction of this world will not affect the real world, which means..."

"We can take our time to deal with you!"

After saying that, Zhang Yi waved his hand, and the space around him began to change. The buildings and the ground began to be disassembled and reassembled like building blocks, and the people on them also moved because of this change.

The narrow streets were reorganized and the ground turned upside down to form a high wall, blocking the beasts that attacked from the sea.

Soon after, the changes stopped and the battle field became a wide circular open space, with different teams divided.

"Huh~ It took a lot of effort." Zhang Yi took a deep breath and said. "Now..."

"Let's have a slow 'communication', Xinde."

～～～～～～～～～～～～～

"Ozpin has found a good 'thug'." Hazel, who was separated from him, said as he looked at the drastic changes around him. "Another poor person who was deceived..."

"In fact, I don't know if he is Ozpin's man," said Crowe. "But he has certainly brought us surprises time and time again."

"Surprise?" Hazel repeated. "Can a surprise kill Seren? Can it bring the dead back to life?!"

"...I have no idea."

The conversation came to a stalemate, Hazel's hatred for Ozpin was visible to the naked eye, it seemed that what Ozpin had done over the years was not a good thing.

"A place similar to [hyperdimensional space]~"

At this moment, Kashu slowly walked towards Hazel and others, looking around.

"The magic of another world... is amazing~"

Seeing Kaxiu approaching, both Kro and Hazel could not help but become more alert - this man who looked like an ordinary old man gave people a very bad feeling!

"I can answer your questions to a certain extent, humans from Shubuzi." Kashu said to Hazel, leaning on his long staff. "But I want to see his emotions when he faces you~"

As he said this, Kashu took out the container containing Ozpin/Ma's soul in front of both Crow and Hazel.

"In human terms, how do you feel about all the shit that's been done to you, Immortal?"

Golden light flickered in the container. Kro, who had never seen such a scene, did not react. However, Hazel, who had a deep hatred for Ozpin, reacted immediately.

"Ozpin!!!"

With a loud roar, Hazel rushed towards Kaxiu who was holding the container in anger. In response, Kaxiu just stood there without moving.

DUANG－－!

A transparent barrier blocked Hazel's charge, and then heavy punch after heavy punch hit it.

"You coward! Executioner! You..."

Bang--!

Kaxiu flicked his fingers lightly, and Hazel was blown away and fell to the ground.

"I don't care about the grudges between you and him, but now, he is my trophy."

"...How can you give it to me?" Hazel stood up from the ground. His previous behavior, which was like an ant trying to shake a tree, made him clearly feel the gap between him and Kaxiu. "How can you give it to me?!"

"I've said it before, human, I'm not interested in your grudges." Kashu said as he looked at Hazel in front of him. "He and the Seren you fear will both become part of my collection in the future, but..."

"I do need some, Hunter~"

356. The Necrons' March

"I do need some, Hunter~"

Kashu's face began to flicker, and finally turned into the metal skull face of the Necromancer.

When Kro and Raven saw the sudden change in Kasu, they took a step back almost at the same time, but Hazel did not retreat but moved forward.

"Hazel, this is not good..."

"It doesn't matter." Hazel walked straight towards Kaxiu and said, "This is not the first time I've betrayed you."

"I still can't understand your human emotions at this stage, but..."

"I think I treat my 'employees' well."

～～～～～～～～～～～～～

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh－－!

With the help of the power of the [Autumn Girl], Xinde used his abilities to the maximum extent, continuously shooting arrows made of fire at the ground, suppressing Zhang Yi and others.

Her target was not just Zhang Yi, but everyone including Ruby - because she would never be Zhang Yi's opponent in a one-on-one fight, and if she wanted to win, she could only muddy the waters as much as possible.

Amber on the ground used his outward force to create an illusion of Xinde to prevent Zhang Yi from finding him, but Mercury... after the [Mirror Space] was unfolded, he could no longer see the others.

boom! boom! boom!

Every time an arrow shot by Xinde hit the ground, it was like a grenade exploding, blasting out flames and stirring up smoke and dust on the ground.

In response, Zhang Yi kept blocking the floating ground or building blocks in front of him to resist Xinde's attack.

"This is not a solution!" Pyrrha held up the shield and together with Qiang, they blocked the aftermath of the explosion for the rest of the team.

"But we can't catch her!" Ruby said, looking at Xinde who appeared and disappeared in the air. "We can't tell which one is real!"

"Uncle! Aren't you very strong?" Yang said to Zhang Yi. "Didn't you easily defeat her before?"

"Well... to be honest, I just used a big move and now I feel a little weak..."

Gorgon has gone to the other half of the wall to deal with the huge Leviathan beast. Zero is outside saying that he wants to collect samples of the beast. Kitty is leading the rest of the city to resist another batch of beasts.

Xinde can fly in the air, which puts Ruby and the others at a disadvantage. Plus with Amber's cover... It's really hard to fight like this now.

The various ranged attacks of both teams were unable to have a good effect on Xinde. Being able to fly in battle is really a big advantage, especially when the opponent cannot fly.

"Girls, pay attention. I'm going to use some different magic."

At this moment, the symbols symbolizing Tzeentch and Slaanesh on Zhang Yi's arm lit up, and a series of blue and gold sparks appeared in the air.

"Go away!"

The blue-gold portal in the air began to move in a straight line at high speed. At the same time, Ruby and the others clearly felt that something seemed to have fallen not far from them.

"Caught!"

A part of the safe haven communication tower fell from the sky and hit that location directly. The next moment, flames shot up into the sky.

"Xinde!"

As the person who created the illusion, Amber saw with her own eyes that Xinde was buried by the debris falling from the sky, but then Nora, who was already furious, rushed to her and swung a hammer.
