Warhammer 40 A New Hope

After some preparation, Ruby led the team to the village where the massacre was happening, and Zhang Yi watched them enter.

Afterwards, Zhang Yi opened a portal and a whole team of imperial guards walked out of it.

"Keep an eye on them. If they are in danger, remember to help them." Zhang Yi said. "I'm going to deal with the scumbag."

. . . . . .

Bear--!

Flames, raging flames poured down on a city, instantly burning all the people and things in it.

A large amount of solid ice rose from the ground, trying to block the raging flames.

But in just tens of seconds, the ice melted and continued to swallow up everything in its path.

A disheveled figure rushed out from the raging flames. His originally luxurious clothes had been burned to ashes, and his body was covered with numerous scars.

"I don't remember there being such a thing among the upper ranks!" Douma, who was using the body of a 'ghost' to quickly recover, said as he looked at the flame that seemed to have life. "Can we chat? I don't think I have provoked you, have I?"

"If you are also a 'ghost' and want to replace me, you should also..."

[Firestorm]

The scattered flames suddenly swept towards Tongmu, forming a huge fire tornado, burning him from all directions.

[Blood Demon Art: Ice Mist]

The cold mist created with all his efforts barely offset the fierce fire storm. Douma, who had finally regained a little bit of his human form, once again became like a burnt chicken.

But at this moment he finally saw the face of the attacker clearly.

"You're called Douma?!"

390. Abnormality: I am not a tool

When was the last time you felt scared?

I cannot understand or feel human emotions. Even when my parents died in front of me, I never felt sad or cried.

But now, looking at the phoenix-like flame chirping in the air and then attacking him, Douma felt fear for the first time.

It comes from the fear of the unknown and the enemy that one cannot defeat.

Chirp!

The sound of the phoenix was accompanied by a scorching fire that swept over, turning the few buildings on the ground into ashes.

Douma used blood demon art again, and a large amount of ice fog appeared and wrapped himself, trying to resist the fierce flames.

But in just a few seconds, the cold misters were engulfed in flames, and then he himself.

It has been said before that ghosts are afraid of three things - sunlight, wisteria flowers, and the Sun Sword. However, there are exceptions to everything. If the temperature of the flame reaches the temperature of the sun, then what does it matter whether there is ultraviolet light or not?

The regeneration ability and immortality of the 'ghost' are derived from biology rather than from rules like Salem's. You must know that even if the latter is reduced to ashes, it can still be resurrected by the curse of God, while the 'ghost' does not have this level of immortality and regeneration ability.

In other words, as long as the temperature is high enough, as long as every cell of the ghost can be completely burned, then his immortality and regenerative ability will be useless.

This may be very difficult for the people in this world, but for Zhang Yi who came here from the Warhammer world, it is not very difficult - for a powerful wizard in the medieval world, it is not a problem to destroy a legion with one spell.

As an 'Upper Rank' with powerful regenerative abilities, he is trying his best to keep Douma alive in the raging flames, but it can only ensure that he will not be completely burned to ashes.

The inhuman Douma was blown away for a long distance by the flames, and finally fell to the ground in a mess.

"What a tough life." Not far away, Zhang Yi looked at Douma, who was still alive even though only some scraps of flesh were left. "It looks like we need to raise the temperature."

The next moment, the raging flames began to gather and quickly changed color, from orange to red and then to white.

"!"

Seeing this, Douma immediately felt a sense of crisis, and without waiting for his body to recover, he activated the blood demon technique at maximum power.

[Blood Demon Art·Mist Ice·Water Lily Bodhisattva]

As his blood spilled, a gigantic statue of Bodhisattva rose from the ground, but the next moment, it transformed into a white flame that roared towards them.

[As dazzling as the sunshine] This was Douma’s last thought before he lost consciousness.

The blood demon technique that had a huge impact on the Demon Slayer Corps and others in the original work was completely useless in the face of flames of at least 1,500 degrees. The high-temperature flames instantly melted the huge ice sculpture he made, then wrapped it up, completely burning Douma to death.

The flames that had lost their target were still there, and the scorching heat had already caused a huge fire that engulfed everything in the surrounding area. But there was no need to worry about additional casualties - those believers in Douma had been reduced to ashes in the first wave of flames.

Why keep these bewitched and abnormal human believers? Zhang Yi doesn't have the time to deal with them one by one, so he treats them the same way he treats Chaos believers.

"This is the first time I've used such a large-scale spell, and so many times." Zhang Yi said, looking at Douma who had turned into ashes. "I don't think I've grown feathers or anything..."

As he spoke, Zhang Yi stretched out his left hand and looked at the blue mark representing Tzeentch on it, as well as the blue line extending from it all the way up to his left eye.

"Tzeentch's mumbling never stops. I'm used to it..."

"Douma should have solved it. As for this fire... let's not put it out just to be safe. Let's burn it cleanly."

"Open the door now and go back... huh?"

"Another one?"

Douma once led a sect, which was inherited from his parents and was an evil sect.

Because of the orders of the Demon King Muzan, the number of followers of this sect is not very large, only about 250 people, but no matter how big it was before, now there is only a pile of charred wreckage left.

The news that Douma, one of the Upper Moons, was attacked was naturally known to Muzan, the ruler of all demons, so he immediately sent out the Upper Moons to investigate the situation.

The first upper-rank demon to arrive here was Akaza, the third upper-rank demon.

The tragic scene and the still burning flames before him made Akaza feel extremely shocked and a little terrified. He couldn't imagine what kind of existence could do this - even the Demon King Muzan might not be able to do this.

But on the other hand, as an out-of-place existence among the Upper Ranks who does not become stronger by eating humans but instead becomes stronger by training and fighting with strong people, he also felt a hint of excitement.

"Hey, Douma, respond if you're not dead."

Akaza began to try to find anyone alive or any trace of Douma. Although he disliked Douma as a BT and often thought about replacing him as the Second Upper Rank, he was still one of the Upper Ranks after all, and this was Muzan's order.

With the powerful visual ability of a demon, Akaza did not find any living people or traces of Douma nearby, but he discovered a strange figure in the distance.

After a brief confirmation, Akaza was sure that it was not anyone or a ghost he knew, so he immediately assumed a fighting stance and rushed towards the figure.

And the next moment, a shock and fear that came from the soul swept over.

boom--!

Akaza was knocked to the ground by a huge force, and he did not see how the opponent launched the attack from beginning to end.

"Destroy and kill..."

The huge force struck again, this time directly knocking it dozens of kilometers away and disappearing from Zhang Yi's sight.

"Let's let him go for now. He is a breath of fresh air among those cannibals." Zhang Yi said to the Emperor fragment in his body. "Someone will deal with him. There is no need for us to interfere too much for now."

"It's time to go back and see how Ruby and the others are doing."

. . . . . .

If you accept the blood of the Demon King Muzan and survive, you will become a demon. As long as you can live long enough, eat enough people, and be rare enough, the demon's strength will increase rapidly.

Even a newly born ghost will have recovery abilities and physical strength that most humans cannot match, but there are exceptions.

Ruby and others from the Shubuzi world possess a special ability called [Extroversion]. They have also been training for a long time in the so-called [Beacon Academy], not to mention the training they received from the Imperial Guards.

Just because of this, Ruby and others are not someone that ordinary demons can deal with. Even some lower-rank demons can't gain the upper hand.

Coupled with the information on various ghosts and targeted equipment, there is no doubt that they are actually capable of challenging some of the upper ranks.

The last ghost that invaded the village was pinned to the ground by the ice line shot by Weiss. Ruby rushed forward and cut off his head and kicked him in the direction of Yang and Black.

Black threw out a ribbon, entangled the flying head, and hung it on the tree, and then Yang shone the strong ultraviolet lamp in his hand at close range.

“Ughh ...

The ordinary ghosts that were split in two screamed in pain, and under the ultraviolet light, their bodies that could have been restored no matter what began to disintegrate.

They couldn't understand why these humans wearing masks (derived from the masks on the faces of the scavengers in the world of 2077) and the purple light emitted by the strange devices in their hands could cause such great harm to them.

The screams did not last long, and soon, those who might have only been ghosts for a few months or even days turned into ashes and drifted away with the wind.

Seeing that the last enemy was eliminated, Ruby sat down on the ground.

"That's the final enemy, right, sis?"

"There are only three so-called ghosts."

"Although not strong, their completely unreasonable regeneration ability is really troublesome~" Ruby said while sitting on the ground. "If we didn't know in advance, someone would definitely get hurt, right?"

"It's not just about getting hurt." Black said, and then looked at the broken limbs of the villagers on the ground. "The Great War was also like this, right?"

"It might be worse. These three ghosts only invaded a small village, but almost all countries were involved in that war."

"We are still very immature, and we are no match for Uncle Crow and Dad." Ruby said. "Weiss, are you okay?"

"Not to the point of throwing up," Weiss said. "But I don't think I'll be craving meat for a while."

"You guys are doing pretty well."

At this time, Zhang Yi, with his left eye still glowing blue, came over with a group of imperial guards and said.

"First, don't ask me what's wrong with my eyes, and then..."

"It's not shameful to spit it out. At that time, I also, well... vomited all over the place..."

"Similar worlds often occur in countless worlds, and they are even more cruel. If you really want to explore many different worlds or planets as General James said, you must adapt to these situations and scenes. At least you can't lose your combat effectiveness just because of one look."

"Alright girls, this mission ends here. Get ready to go back. You can't expect success to come overnight."

"You also need time to adapt and sum up your experience, right?"

Moon World

Zhang Yi successfully won a right for the soldiers of the [Third Army] of [R Company] who were sold to the Mechanicus from the Mechanicus - if they can successfully bring back at least two golden branches, the survivors will have the opportunity to be transformed to increase their survival time.

After this proposal was accepted and told to Nikolai (the supreme commander of the Fourth Army) and others, the efficiency of their search for the golden branch increased. However, on the other hand, [R Company] and [N Company] also sent business exchange requests soon after - I don't want to act anymore, right...

"What are Zero's research results on EGO?" Zhang Yi, whose light in his eyes had finally faded, asked a member of the Mechanicus.

"Zero? You mean the [Biological Master] with 'useless fat' on his body?" the priest who was asked responded. "She is still under research, and..."

"She seems to have finally accepted the correct view that machinery is superior to flesh."

"what?"

. . . . . .

"Execution: 201st analysis experiment."

"I am not a tool..."

"Open: XXX device."

"I am not a tool..."

Creaky--(sound of door opening)

"Discovery: Higher Priority."

"I am not a tool..."

A huge mechanical object that looked like a universal tool appeared in front of Zhang Yi. In the center of this huge machine, a human face was muttering to himself with lifeless eyes.

"Execute: Extract job."

"I am not a tool..."

"Performed: Surgery to increase hormone secretion in certain situations."

"I am not a tool..."

"Execution: Reproduction Operation."

"I am not a tool..."

"What the hell..."
