Warhammer 40 A New Hope

As a guard, Ilok quickly stepped forward, used his shield to knock the corpse away, and at the same time swung the hammer in his hand at the last enemy behind him.

boom!

Phew!

The thunder hammer hit his waist, and he spat out a mouthful of black blood. Then the sharp claws wrapped in lightning pierced through Ilok's chest.

"I want to get out!"

Biubiubiu!

A large number of green plasma balls attacked and knocked down the last Chaos Terminator.

"You okay, bro?!"

As the captain, Fal quickly came to Ilok who was pierced in the chest, and signaled Ax to check the conditions of the other brothers.

"Hold on, we'll soon be able to..."

boom!

A heat ray hit Captain Farr, who was half-crouching, causing his huge body to shake.

Biubiubiu!

A large number of poison crystal bullets attacked, along with several molten rays with certain armor-piercing capabilities.

At the same time, an Eldar small weapons platform loaded with armor-piercing light spears was pushed in and aimed at Farr.

Whoosh—boom!

It was a direct hit, and after the smoke cleared, the armor on Captain Farr's chest had evaporated, leaving him in a bloody mess.

boom!

Ilok, who was lying on the ground, threw the hammer wrapped in electric light in his hand with all his strength, hitting the weapon platform that was trying to fire a second shot. Then a large amount of green plasma covered the weapon platform.

Ax was dragging his brother Aksu with one hand while fighting back at the Eldar who were attacking them.

At this moment, a spot of light appeared in the team and slowly expanded.

"Take this thing and go!" Captain Farr, who was trying to stay awake and not faint, threw the artifact in his hand to Aksu, the only one who could move freely, after seeing the light of the portal. "Leave here!"

"I can't..."

"This is an order!"

Aksu, who was being dragged by Ax, also woke up at this time and broke free from his brother's hand.

"... Let's go..." Aksu raised his arm and shot a series of plasma balls at the crazy Dark Eldar soldiers. "Someone must get out alive..."

Looking at his comrades who were trying hard to delay for him, Axe gritted his teeth, turned around and walked towards the portal that had already been formed.

"Catch him! We also want..."

boom!

Despite being on the verge of passing out, Fal was still able to knock back any Dark Eldar that tried to leap over him to attack his own men.

"As long as we are alive, don't even think about going over there!"

Under the cover of everyone, Axe gradually approached the portal and finally stepped into it.

And the moment he entered, he saw Captain Farr, pierced by the weapons of several Dark Eldar.

One person returned from hell.

75. Anger and Growth

XCOM World

After Axe walked out of the portal with the artifact, the ship immediately left the Crucian star field, and after a short repair, returned to the safe world of XCOM.

The report results of this mission have been placed on Zhang Yi's desk. At the same time, the only survivor, Ax, has been transferred to the best treatment room for examination and treatment.

He was the only one in the whole team who came back alive...

Despite the most thorough preparation and training, the entire Terminator team made completing the mission their first goal.

However, they still underestimated the danger there and the madness of the enemies trapped there - they went completely crazy in order to get out.

They desperately tried to escape from that super-dimensional maze, even at the risk of being killed over and over again.

Moreover, the Eldar artifact that was retrieved at the cost of the lives of four Extremes Legion Terminator veterans was damaged.

Yes, it might be because a stray bullet from the battle grazed it, or when Fal was hit by heavy weapons, the aftermath affected her, or it might simply be because it was not regularly maintained in the treasure house of [Tarasim]. In short, this Eldar artifact that was retrieved with great difficulty was damaged.

Although it is not completely bad and still has high functions and research value, after many aspects of identification, it has lost the ability to allow anyone to travel through the network at will.

In other words, this mission has failed again...

Zhang Yi covered his face. After learning the result of this mission, he had been silent in his office for a long time.

"...Can you guys get out?" Zhang Yi suddenly asked, addressing the two guards standing behind him like statues. "Get out..."

The two guards remained unmoved, as if they were really two exquisite sculptures.

"I'll say it again...get out!"

Faced with Zhang Yi, who was already somewhat angry, the two imperial guards remained unmoved.

"I said! Get out!"

The next moment, the thick documents on the table were thrown onto one of the imperial guards, and a large amount of papers flew in the air.

"I told you to get out! Can't you hear me?!" Zhang Yi yelled. "I don't want to trade with that piece of shit on the throne! I don't want to run around for his hopeless empire! I don't want to swim butterfly with you maggots in this cesspool!"

"I'm just an ordinary person! I'm just an ordinary person who is unemployed after graduation! I'm just an ordinary person who has difficulty passing the CET-4!"

"I'm not a genius! I don't have any lofty aspirations or ambitions! I don't even know the history of this world in detail!"

"I'm just an ordinary person! I'm just an ordinary person who can't do anything!"

"I don't want to be a commander! I don't want to plan any missions! I don't want to be responsible for hundreds of lives!"

"I don't want to endure helpless failure and despair after doing extremely detailed preparation and training!"

Zhang Yi swept everything on the table to the ground in a rage, and smashed everything in the room crazily, yelling loudly to vent his anger.

"Fuck the Emperor! Fuck their warp! Fuck the Four Hawkers!"

"I want to go home! I want to go back to a peaceful life! I don't want to stay here any longer!"

The angry throwing gradually turned into crying like a child. Zhang Yi lay on the ground covered with documents and cried loudly.

The two imperial guards, as if they saw nothing, still stood there like statues.

After an unknown amount of time, Zhang Yi stopped crying and lay on the ground, looking at the lights on the ceiling.

Just looking at it quietly, a long time passed...

"... this fucking world..." Zhang Yi said slowly. "... this fucking subspace..."

"...fucking...life of a time traveler..."

[Mechanical Ark] - [Steel Ghost]

The only surviving Terminator soldier of the Extreme Regiment was receiving treatment in the exclusive vehicle of the Mechanical Sage.

Although he did not seem to have suffered any serious injuries when he escaped from the [super-dimensional maze], subsequent examinations showed that Aksu still had various tiny wounds all over his body.

As a Space Marine, he has extraordinary recovery and the ability to endure pain, allowing him to ignore the impact of these minor wounds when fighting.

However, after the war, these wounds still require certain treatment.

"A very small amount of toxins from the Eldar weapons seeped into his body, and the march through that space also caused him to suffer some unexplained damage in various aspects of his body." The Mechanicus member who was acting as a healer followed Zhang Yi to explain. "But these are not a big problem for him."

“After a simple treatment, he will soon be able to continue fighting for the Holy Om Messiah.”

"Thank you very much."

The Mechanicus member nodded in response to Zhang Yi's thanks, and then went about his own business.

And Zhang Yi walked into Ax's treatment room.

Seeing Zhang Yi come in, the servoskulls and members of the Mechanicus who were treating Axe stopped what they were doing to make room for a possible communication between the two.

"I..."

Zhang Yi was about to say something, but he swallowed it back and then he slapped himself hard in the face.

"I know it's stupid to apologize to a soldier in a world like that!" Zhang Yi said. "It's really stupid! Because you have long been prepared to face such a result and have long been accustomed to it."

"．．．．．．."Aksu did not say anything in response to Zhang Yi's words.

"Then let's talk in your way." Zhang Yi stood up straight and looked at the Space Marine in front of him, who was much taller than him even when he was standing. "What do you want to do after this?"

"...I will return to Macragge to report on this mission." Axe said. "Then I hope to continue to work with you and your team."

"reason."

"You are the only one who has the ability to enter and exit that space, and you also have the ability to go to other worlds and gain more powerful but safe power."

"I want revenge. I want to smash the head of the alien who calls himself the Endless!"

"I want to go back to that hell once again to rescue my brothers who might still be alive, or bring back their bodies!"

"What a Warhammer 40K-style answer." Zhang Yi responded. "So, are you willing to go to another hell and carry out a mission later?"

Hearing this, Axe stood up and knelt down on one knee towards Zhang Yi.

"My sharp blade is willing to fight for you!"

"...You kneel before me because I have a fragment of your Emperor inside of me?"

"Not entirely," Axe said. "Because of what you did."

"You made the most thorough preparations possible to allow us to enter and exit safely, and prepared the right weapons for us."

"While we simulated the battle over and over again, you were also constantly modifying the simulation content to make the action go more smoothly..."

"You have been hoping over and over again that Sage Kaul and the others can perfect the device to protect us as much as possible. You have also been constantly training your abilities so that we can all come back alive."

He stood up and looked at the tiny mortal in front of him.

"Although we failed, it was not your fault."

"You've done well enough."

"...To be honest, your answer makes me a little embarrassed." Zhang Yi said. "But..."

“Thank you for your trust!”

Terra, Royal Palace

"So, the little guy failed?" the emperor said to the commander of his imperial guards.

"Yes, after sacrificing four Space Marine veterans, the artifact brought back by the only survivor was confirmed to be damaged." Kitty said. "Although it still has a high research value, its ability to travel through the webway at will has been confirmed to be ineffective."

"What was the boy's reaction?"

"According to the report from the guards who protected him, he cried in his room and said to the Emperor..."

"I can probably guess how he vents his negative emotions while scolding me." The Emperor did not react much. "However, I am very curious about what he will do after experiencing this."

"Should I accept the reality? Or should I fight for my life?"

At this time, the door in front of the Golden Throne was pushed open, and Zhang Yi, dressed in the uniform of a human empire officer, walked in.

"Before you question me about my failure again, let me speak first." Zhang Yi walked to the throne and spoke to the emperor sitting on it. "I failed, but I still have about three months."

"I need a Krieg unit, and a squad of Grey Knights."

"Give me the troops I need, and I will bring you a powerful warrior."

"So powerful that even in his weakened state due to being far away from his world, he is a powerful warrior enough to make all the demons here tremble."

"He has the ability to completely kill the demon. If he is given enough time to recover, it won't be a problem for him to completely kill the Four Gods!"

"In one word, give it or not!"

"..."
