Warhammer 40 A New Hope

Fat Ball, with a huge body and two plasma cannons, appeared in front of the Astra Militarum accompanied by the shaking of the ground and fired two plasma cannons.

Energy bombs containing sub-gold energy attacked the Astra Militarum's position. One bomb passed over the bunker and melted a scrapped vehicle at the rear, while the other directly melted a gap in the Astra Militarum's bunker.

And when the huge demon wanted to shoot at the Astra Militarum position again, a dark red bullet came from high above and hit the mechanical device on the fat ball's chest.

The highly penetrating ammunition directly pierced through the fat man's chest, and then the mechanical devices on his body exploded with sparks.

Several rockets flew over and exploded on Fat Ball's body, turning him into a pile of meat lying on the ground.

At this moment, more enemies are rushing towards this position.

"Retreat! Retreat to the second line of defense!"

The Astra Militarum and Krieg soldiers in the position began to evacuate in an orderly manner and buried time bombs in the position to delay the enemy's attack.

Boom boom boom!

The demon that rushed into the position was blown away by the detonated bomb shortly afterwards, and the entire team fell into chaos again, and the overall speed was slowed down.

In an abandoned high-rise building, a small number of human zombie corpses killed by Catachan soldiers were piled on the ground.

The Catachans installed explosives at several weak points in the building.

"Evacuate immediately, those ghosts are coming!"

Just as he finished his words, a [Gargoyle] flew in from the gap in the tall building and rushed towards the soldier closest to him.

The Catachan warrior who was ambushed quickly dodged the claws that were grabbing at him, then repelled the demon in front of him with the butt of his gun and aimed the large-caliber shotgun in his hand at it.

Bang bang bang!

The [Gargoyle] that rushed in was beaten into a sieve and flew backwards.

"I TM..."

"Don't stay there, go!"

The team immediately left the building, and shortly afterwards, the explosion occurred.

The already crumbling building collapsed, killing a large number of demons and blocking their way forward.

The [Basic Lizard Cannon] in the distance was still bombarding non-stop. The number of demons was rapidly decreasing, but their numbers were still large.

Soon, in a relatively spacious square, the devil finally saw the second position of the human group.

boom!

The Leman Rust tank fired a shell into the narrow entrance, instantly killing a large number of demons, and then the heavy bolter machine gun on the tank opened fire.

In the martial arts-filled world of Warhammer 40K, in order to resist the monsters in the subspace, weapons are characterized by being "numerous, thick, and large", which makes them very effective when dealing with the demons in this world.

The entrance was narrow and there was only one entrance. Without unified management and command, most of the demons would just foolishly move forward along the existing path and charge towards the powerful weapons that had been set up.

At this moment, the square was like a meat grinder, with a large number of demon corpses piled up at the entrance.

The [Evil Spirit Guards] transformed from native human soldiers tried to use the long-range weapons that had been integrated into their bodies to shoot at the positions of the Astra Militarum, but then they would be greeted by snipers from unknown directions.

Without the command of the [Hell Priest], the entire demon group had no coordination or cooperation at all. The fast-running low-level demons blocked the advance of the high-level demons but were unable to break through the enemy's positions.

Those high-level demons moved slowly or even could not move forward because of the crowded compatriots and narrow roads, and could only bathe themselves in the long-range artillery fire of the Astra Militarum.

Several [Hell Knights] rushed out of the narrow passage and jumped into the position.

boom!

Like a mortar shell landing, the [Hell Knights] smashed into the Astra Militarum's position, killing several people on the spot.

Then, they were "warmly welcomed" by the Krieg soldiers in the position.

The chainsaw sword roared as it sawed in half the [Hell Knight] that rushed into the position, while a [Hell Knight] on the other side was pinned down by several soldiers and beaten to death with an engineering shovel.

The chaos caused by these [Hell Knights] was quickly quelled, and the other demons were suppressed again before they could take this opportunity to rush to the front of the position.

As soon as a [Fat Ball] appeared at the entrance, he was hit by the [Melta Cannon] in the position. His upper body disappeared immediately, and his fat body fell down, crushing several demons.

At this time, the number of demons had been greatly reduced. The continuous heavy artillery bombardment caused most of the demons to be blown into a pile of minced meat without even seeing the appearance of the enemy.

drop--!

Krieg's political commissar Artyom blew the whistle to charge, and the Krieg soldiers in the position immediately jumped out of the position and rushed towards the remaining demons.

Looking at the humans rushing towards them, a young demon was still a little unresponsive. He had never thought that these humans would actually abandon their positions and rush towards them.

He was then knocked over by a Krieg soldier, who stabbed him in the chest with a bayonet and then shot him again.

[Krieg Death Corps], they don’t care who the enemy is, whether the friendly fire stops or not, they just charge!

At this moment, these soldiers wearing gas masks are more like demons than monsters, and they are more ruthless, orderly and efficient, slaughtering the enemies in front of them.

Behind the remaining group of demons, a group of Catachan warriors blocked the demons' retreat with their bolters and chainswords.

The tall [Demon Baron] swung the Argentum blade on his arm, cutting the soldier in front of him in half, and then threw a huge fireball at a group of soldiers who were shooting at him from a distance.

The flames engulfed them, but before it could have its day, a spear pierced his waist.

The enraged Demon Baron beheaded the Krieg soldier with a backhand strike, and then the spear stuck in his waist exploded.

boom!

The powerful explosion dug a large hole in its waist. More Krieg soldiers continued to shoot at it and gradually approached it.

Even with its thick skin and strong muscles, the Demon Baron was exhausted from defending himself under the barrage of fire from several full-power laser rifles.

Buzz——!

The buzzing sound of the chainsaw sword was heard, and under the fire of friendly forces, Political Commissar Artyom rushed towards the suppressed [Demon Baron] with a chainsaw sword in hand and slashed at its arm.

Buzz—rip!

One of the giant arms was sawed off, and the enraged Demon Baron immediately swung the adamantium blade on his other arm and slashed at the human in front of him.

Political Commissar Artyom dodged flexibly and ran behind the demon, stabbing him in the back with the chainsaw sword in his hand!

Buzz—rip!

The rotating chainsaw sword pierced from the back, and from the chest, the chainsaw rotated and moved slowly downwards, and a large amount of blood and flesh splattered everywhere.

The huge body fell down, and the other demons around it were now only a few in number.

A great victory!

83. Research continues

The chaotic group of demons that gathered together were almost wiped out without causing any major trouble under the organized and planned attack of the Astra Militarum.

The Krieg Death Corps' daring act of charging towards the group of demons also left a deep impression on the local resistance and official personnel - they had hardly seen such soldiers before.

After the war, the bodies of the demons were piled together and burned. At the same time, local officials dispatched troops again and arrived near the Holy Elephant of Sin soon after. Finally, Kohl's research could begin.

"Um..."

The sky was still pitch black at this time. On the high-rise building at the head of the [Holy Elephant of Sin], a simple passage and support had been built.

Various instruments were constantly scanning and analyzing the sword that was inserted into the brain of the Holy Elephant of Sin, and around it were fully armed fighters from all sides.

The Grey Knights' chaplain, Xi Luo, was also present, and had been praying non-stop since he arrived.

Even in a sealed state, everyone here can hear various mutterings of unknown origin from time to time, which in some ways reflects the power of this ancient Titan demon.

"【Asian Gold Energy】... According to you, its essence is similar to the chaotic subspace energy we have, right?" Great Sage Kaul asked Zhang Yi who was present.

"That's right, although if you look closely, there are still some differences between the two." Zhang Yi replied.

"[The only weapons that can kill or seal this powerful demon are weapons that contain the pure power of [Elemental Ghost], or weapons that are a mixture of the two]." Cawl repeated what he knew about this weapon. "[Elemental Ghost]... Is it possible for us to reach the [Spear of the World] where those extraterrestrial creatures are?"

"It's unlikely. Even though it has been slaughtered by DOM GUY once, there are still many demons there." Zhang Yi said. "Moreover, if you want to contact and gain the power of the [Elemental Ghost] that still exists at this stage, you must enter the [Spear of the World] in the [Ring of Nur]..."

"I estimate that at this stage, our individual combat power cannot pass the test of the [Spear of the World]. Only the Primarch or something like that has a chance to pass that test..."

"Um..."

Hearing this answer, Great Sage Kaul pondered for a while, then waved his hand, signaling Father Kadoc who was standing beside her to hand him the latest research data.

"Even if the physical part (the hilt) is separated from the blade, this part can still rely on the power of the sealed person for a long time, and last for thousands of years, or even exist forever, as long as the Titan demon sealed by it is not dead..."

"Weak demons will be severely injured and killed by this weapon, but beings like this one called the [Titan Demon] will be unable to move because of the blade on their bodies..."

"It's not just the hilt that maintains the shape of the blade, it can also absorb the energy of the corresponding target to maintain itself..."

"Is it because of the symbols and words on the sword? I need to decipher these things..."

The research on the [Blade of Judgment] has been progressing a bit slowly. Even in the Warhammer 40K world, Cawl, who is known as the [Great Sage of Machinery], is beginning to be at a loss as to what to do with this weapon that is suspected to be a combination of the technologies of the [Argentinians], [Mekrs], and Hell.

But fortunately, it was not completely impossible to start. After all, Zhang Yi also provided some help within his ability.

Seeing that the great sage Kohl had completely entered into working mode and that he would not be of any use to him for the time being, Zhang Yi left this simple research institute.

Downstairs in this research institute, at another base of the Astra Militarum, senior members are reviewing this battle.

Although they won this battle without losing too many soldiers, some aspects also reflected the power of the demons in this world.

Even without any commander in charge, with the entire team in chaos, no coordination, and even infighting, this large group of demons was able to break through the first line of defense and almost break through the second line of defense with their powerful individual combat power.

Hundreds of people died and nearly a thousand were injured. The armor of several tanks stationed on the second line of defense also suffered varying degrees of damage.

What if those three [Hell Priests] had not been killed by DOM GUY, and the entire demon group was still full of order, able to cooperate with each other and attack in an orderly manner, could they still win?

Low-level demons adopt guerrilla warfare instead of gathering together. High-level demons and low-level demons form teams to cooperate with each other. Demons with long-range attack capabilities move in groups. Demons that can fly gather together like a fighter squadron to attack enemies in the air or attack artillery units...

The entire demon army is no longer a huddled, slow-moving living target, but is divided into small groups, harassing, raiding, and bombing the human defense line from multiple directions...

Moreover, all the high-level demons nearby were killed by DOM, which means they have not encountered many difficult high-level demons yet.

Even the Grey Knights may not be able to kill some powerful demons, and it will be even more difficult to defeat them if they cooperate with lower-level demons.

"It's not hard to imagine how difficult these demons were when the three [Hell Priests] were still alive and the [Blood Cage] portal still existed..." Captain Locke said. "It's even harder for me to imagine how powerful the 'Demon Slayer' was, who, with his own strength, killed the three [Hell Priests] in command and destroyed the [Blood Cage] that could continuously transmit troops to this planet..."

"Indeed, it's hard to imagine..." The captain of the Grey Knights, who had fought against mid-level demons, agreed. "Besides, those aren't the most powerful demons."

The more mechanized and energetic [Mechanical Fat Ball]; the fully armed [Dread Knight]; the [Predator] who voluntarily fell into hell and was armed with various sub-golden weapons...

And the [Doom Knight Hunter] which is said to be specially developed and manufactured for hunting down DOM GUY.

Even the Grey Knights, who specialized in hunting demons, might not be able to defeat those demons.

In other words, when some low-level demons have a certain degree of organization and discipline, they may all be defeated under their siege...

"..." Political Commissar Krieg, who had also fought against those demons, remained silent. He didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

After all, no matter what the enemy is, how strong or how difficult it is, they are unlikely to stop charging...

"I think this encounter has given everyone present a clear understanding of the existence of demons in this world." Zhang Yi said. "The demons around here have been slaughtered by DOM GUY, and there are almost no powerful ones left..."

"But I think everyone should realize how powerful these beings are that can invade and drag several worlds into hell."

"I also got information that the legend will go to Hell again soon and enter the capital of Hell - Imola..."

"He wants to try to solve the problem of Hell once and for all..."

"That's when my plan will be officially implemented, and that's when you'll truly witness the combat power of Hell..."

"The capital of hell?" Captain Kyle was a little confused by this title. "That kind of ghost world has a capital?"

"Hell used to be called [Jaccard]. There are very complicated reasons why it became what you know." Zhang Yi explained to Kyle. "They were also a civilization with their own history, writing and technology..."

"In short, I need you to be fully prepared while ensuring safety..."

"You will have the honor of fighting alongside the powerful warriors of this world who have repeatedly defeated Hell, and fighting against Hell's most elite and powerful troops and their gods."

At this moment, the Anglican Bishop, Beryl Sammy, walked in and saluted everyone in the room.

"Those warriors who have fought against demons are also one of our targets." Zhang Yi looked at Belial who came in and said, "You should know what to do, priest."

"We will treat those powerful and unyielding warriors with the highest courtesy and persuade them to join us in fighting another evil enemy on our world."

"Those Elemental Ghosts who have survived to this day and have maintained their identity are, in some ways, martial." Zhang Yi said to the bishop of the state religion. "I hope you can still fight, Bishop."

"Please rest assured, respected [Living Saint]." The bishop said respectfully, and took a priest's hammer from his waist and held it in his hand. "I am not one of those state bishops who only know how to chant scriptures and preach..."

"I have personally led troops to annihilate several groups of cultists."

"But I hope that Your Excellency the Living Saint can give me some help."

"You want to talk about Commander Valen, right?" Zhang Yi said.

"He was once deceived by the devil and betrayed his comrades, causing their hometown to fall into the hands of this hell. However, he still has a great appeal. A large number of brave and fearless warriors still responded to his call at the last moment and stepped into that evil place..."
