Warhammer 40 A New Hope

Tyrion then felt a large amount of heavenly wind gathering, and tiny flashes of lightning appeared on the battlefield below the city.

【Chain Lightning】

Sizzle——!

Two ball lightnings appeared on the battlefield and began to emit destructive electric currents towards the surrounding Norscan people, turning them into charcoal one by one.

Boom boom boom!

A giant metal beast appeared on a high slope in the distance. Along with a roar and the sound of something cutting through the air, several flashes of fire appeared in the enemy group, and a large number of Norsemen were turned into pieces on the ground.

"For the big plan!"

Groups of Lizardmen emerged from the high slope and rushed towards the Norse barbarians who were still confused about the situation.

"Meet the enemy! For Chaos..."

boom!

A Norscan who seemed to be the commander of the army shouted, trying to rally his subordinates who were already in a state of confusion, but before he could say a few words, another huge roar drowned out his voice.

The ships piled up on the shore exploded with a loud roar, and water and broken wood flew dozens of meters high.

Just that one attack just now turned dozens of crowded Norse longships into garbage in the sea and sank to the bottom of the sea.

And that roar seemed like a signal, more explosions and flames appeared on the battlefield, and flames shot up into the sky.

On the other side, the Lizardmen had collided with a group of Norse barbarians. Even though the strong Norse barbarians had roamed the north and the sea, fighting against bad weather and all kinds of brutal creatures, they were still not up to the task of dealing with the biological weapons of the Lizardmen, not to mention that these Norse barbarians had almost no armor.

The still howling [Norse Berserker] was split into two by the Lizardman in front of him, and the [Predator] who followed closely was split in half with his shield.

The lizards armed with automatic rifles shot at the enemy from all unexpected positions, supporting their comrades, causing these barbarians to die inexplicably.

The giant dinosaurs that rushed into the crowd further undermined the morale of the Norse barbarians, causing them to begin to show signs of fleeing.

When a huge feathered serpent appeared in the air and blew up a strong wind where their ship was parked, they despaired as they watched the ships sink to the bottom of the sea one after another.

"Don't be afraid warriors! The four gods are watching us! Follow me to kill these..."

Biu

A beam of azure light directly hit the Norse chieftain, vaporizing him in full view of everyone, leaving nothing behind.

At this point, the Norse invaders completely collapsed and began to flee uncontrollably.

[Lothern] was saved, with the help of some uninvited lizardmen and humans.

However, seeing this scene, Tyrion, who escaped the disaster, could not be happy.

Because he knew that this help to them would not be without cost.

124. Forced Takeover

boom!

In the conference room, Tyrion slammed his fist on the table to vent his dissatisfaction.

"I will never agree to that!"

"We are not here to ask for your opinion." Master Mazdamuddi said slowly to the angry Tyrion. "We are here to inform you..."

"The elves today no longer have the ability to continue guarding the Great Whirlpool."

"Ulthuan is the land of the elves. It belongs to the elves! You have no reason..."

"Belongs to the elves?" Mazdamuddi's tone was a little angry at this time. "It seems that you have forgotten..."

"All of this comes from the Ancient Saints and us!"

As Master Ma said, almost everything in the medieval world came from the hands of the [Ancient Saints].

If the dragons had said this to him, he would have considered it. After all, these powerful creatures were the natives of this planet. In terms of background and strength, they were indeed qualified to make demands. This was also the reason why the lizardmen agreed to the demands of the Zhendan dragons, because they had the capital.

The elves, whether they are dark elves, high elves or wood elves, these proud pointed ears are actually one of the creations of the [Ancient Saints]. Those magics and the technology to build the [Great Vortex] were taught to them by the Lizardmen.

The elves are powerful and also belong to the Order camp, so the Lizardmen handed the [Great Whirlpool] over to them for protection and management (the maintenance of the Great Whirlpool seems to rely on the Lizardmen's spiritual veins), and there is no problem for them to live in Osun.

But now, the elves no longer have the ability and strength to continue protecting Ulthuan, and many magic toad priests also know that in the original timeline, the elves tried to close the Great Vortex and challenge Chaos when the [Double-Tailed Comet] appeared.

In summary, the Lizardmen have completely lost their patience with the arrogant creatures like the Elves, and are preparing to forcibly take over Ulthuan and guard the Great Vortex on their behalf.

Tyrion naturally disagreed, but as Master Mazdamuddi said, this time they came to make a declaration, not to seek their opinions.

Therefore, no matter how much this powerful legendary elven general disagreed, no one paid attention. The elves, who had lost almost all of their gods, the vast majority of their population and combat power, were doomed.

Tyrion, who tried to use force, was immediately controlled by the [Temple Guards] beside him, and the [Yangyan Sword] was also taken away.

"You have another choice." Mazdamuddi looked at Tyrion with an unwilling look on his face and said, "Join them as a vassal army."

"That way, you might still have some value."

Following the direction of Master Ma's finger, Tyrion saw Zhang Yi, who had been silent since his previous position, and the five [Sky Eagle Guards] behind him.

"Let me think of a human being condescending to me? Don't even think about it!"

"The temper of the elves is just like that of the Eldar, stubborn and stubborn." Zhang Yi looked at Tyrion and said. "That's right, I also want to ask a question, but it's not easy for me to ask the Eldar..."

"In this situation where it is clear that your race and your country have been destroyed, and you have become refugees, what are you insisting on?"

Zhang Yi wanted to ask Evelaine this question at that time. After all, when Slaanesh was born, the entire [Eldar Empire] was destroyed. These arrogant races that indeed possessed powerful technological and military strength became a refugee race with nowhere to live and were constantly hunted down by Slaanesh.

If you couldn't let go of your pride at the beginning because of the past, it's understandable, but now, after so many years, you still have the same bad temper. What do you think?

It was not convenient to ask the Eldar, so Zhang Yi asked this question to the Elves who had some relationship with the Eldar.

"...We will never surrender to weak and despicable humans like you!"

"Go, go up and give him two big slaps in the face."

Snapped!

Without hesitation, a Skyhawk Guard slapped Tyrion in the face.

"How dare you..."

Snapped!

"If you don't speak properly, don't expect to have a good meal for a while."

"You damn..."

Snapped!

Even though the Eagle Guard who slapped Tyrion controlled his strength, his handsome face was swollen like a pig's head after a few slaps.

At this time, Tyrion finally stopped insisting and fell silent.

In fact, it is understandable that the Eldar have maintained their arrogance for so many years. Even though they have fallen to a place with only a few inhabited planets, they cannot let go of their sensitive emotions at will, are constantly hunted by Slaanesh, and it is difficult for them to create the [Soul Stone] to protect their souls. But even so, a large part of the incomplete technology in their hands cannot be explained or replicated by the current human empire - they still have the capital to be arrogant.

But what about the elves? Although in the game and novel, the elves in Warhammer are comparable to the Eldar in 40K, the elves in Warhammer are actually the creations of the Ancients. The magic they use is taught to them by the Toads. The formation of Ulthuan and the Great Vortex is also closely related to the Lizardmen.

Such a race thinks itself to be very great, and does not take other races seriously at all. It even wants to close the Maelstrom to fight Chaos head-on.

Why do they do that? Everything you have was given to you by others. Why are you so arrogant and look down on those who have helped you?

Even in the past, you were considered powerful enough, but now...

The ruthless slaps from the imperial guards mercilessly shattered Tyrion's self-esteem. At the same time, he inevitably began to think about Zhang Yi's question - in this situation, what right did he have?

Without the help of other races, at least for the high elves, their destruction is already a foregone conclusion. So why should they still maintain their previous arrogance...

"Calm down and think about it carefully. Suddenly you realize that you are stupid, right?" Zhang Yi said, looking at Tyrion, whose head was swollen like a pig, and then stood up. "Think about it carefully."

Tyrion was carried up by two [Temple Guards] and walked towards the room where he was imprisoned, and Zhang Yi followed him out.

There is still a lot to do...

～～～～～～～～～～～～～

After a few days, the battle in orbit came to an end. With sufficient firepower and the suppression of the number of ships, two Slaanesh ships and one Nurgle ship were all destroyed in space, but a very small number of airdrop pods and transport ships went to the ground of the medieval world.

Although timely interception was carried out, some relatively intact airdrop pods and transport ships still landed on the ground.

The Empire lost two cruisers, one was destroyed and the other was boarded by Slaanesh Space Marines. Most of the people on board were slaughtered and it could not be used normally for a short time.

In addition, based on the possibility of the opening of the rift, Master Kroka and other magic toad priests conducted a short period of research on Zhang Yi's abilities and, after considering the current situation in the subspace, informed Zhang Yi not to open large-scale portals to the outside world in a short period of time - the evil gods from the outside world might use this to invade here again.

This also made Zhang Yi, who originally wanted to open the gate to get reinforcements, give up the idea, although he still obtained the support of another five-man Grey Knight Space Marine squad from the Grey Knight's home planet through the small-scale opened portal.

Master Kroka used Zhang Yi's portal and ship transportation to land a large number of troops in Ulthuan, and gradually took over the place.

Some Space Marine squads and some magic toad priests also built fortresses in the temple near the Great Vortex to ensure the integrity of this existence that is extremely important to the entire medieval world.

During this period, they confirmed the bodies of many high-ranking elven leaders, including the current [Eternal Queen] and [Phoenix King]. They could not survive the scream of Slaanesh.

This was undoubtedly bad news for Tyrion - everyone with some connections knew that he liked this Everqueen.

In addition, many living elves never woke up after falling asleep. After inspection, it was found that their souls disappeared.

This situation is extremely similar to that of the Eldar, which also shows that the influence of Slaanesh has already appeared in the medieval world. Although according to Master Kroka's analysis, this phenomenon will disappear after a few days when the barrier protecting the medieval world is completely repaired, but during this period alone, the number of living elves will inevitably decrease again.

For the elves, whose numbers are already small, this news is undoubtedly adding insult to injury.

Tyrion's brother, Teclis, also returned to Ulthuan during this time.

He survived the initial outbreak, and immediately put aside his dignity and asked for help from the nearby Lizardmen, allowing him to survive the attacks from various Chaos forces after the outbreak, and after that, he came to Ulthuan.

The total population of the High Elves is now only around tens of thousands, and because of Slaanesh, this number may not only not continue to increase, but may continue to decline.

When Teclis returned to Ulthuan, he found his imprisoned brother Tyrion and talked with him alone for a long time.

When the two of them came out of the room, they agreed to Master Mazdamuddi's advice and chose to become part of Zhang Yi's human empire in exchange for the protection of the Lizardmen and Zhang Yi and others.

"It would have been better if you had done this earlier. Why are you so stubborn?" Zhang Yi said, looking at Teclis and Tyrion who were kneeling in front of him. "In this case, we need to prepare Soul Stones for them... Let Guilliman help?"

All the elves were gathered in [Lothern] and the nearby towns and villages, and several magic toad masters built a defensive barrier to protect the souls of the elves from being taken away by Slaanesh.

Then, another piece of news about the elves came.

A [Black Ark] belonging to the Dark Elves was heading towards the [Temple of Khaine] area that had not yet been controlled by the Lizardmen.

Malekith, on top of it.

125. Nakari's Calculation

The Scream of Selene affected the entire medieval world, with the elves being the first to be affected.

Whether it was the High Elves, Wood Elves, or Dark Elves, they all suffered heavy losses because of the scream that echoed throughout the world.

Malekith, the ruler of the dark elves, managed to survive the scream.

But his mother, Morathi, was not so lucky. This woman who was more or less related to Chaos and was known as the "most beautiful woman in the elves" died in front of her son. It was obvious that Slaanesh, who was in the outer world, did not like her. (As for the style of the dark elves, I doubt whether anyone will take advantage of the opportunity. 23333)

Immediately afterwards, the attacks of the Norse barbarians and the ratmen caused them to lose a large amount of land and cities. Malekith summoned all his surviving men to block the first two attacks, and before the subsequent attacks came, he escaped on a [Black Ark] that he had prepared in advance and left [Nagarond] before more enemies overwhelmed them.

After exploring several nearby high elf cities, he discovered the current situation of the high elves. He speculated that it was very likely that this was the case for all the elves in the entire medieval world.

This was a great disaster for the entire elf race, but for Malekith, it was also an opportunity - an opportunity to take back the throne of the Phoenix King that originally belonged to him.

This Witch King, who was obsessed with that position, completely ignored the strength and number of his enemies. He believed that as long as he could gather all the surviving elves as the savior and repel all the enemies who tried to take advantage of the elves' misfortune at this time, his becoming the new Phoenix King would be a foregone conclusion.

But before that, he needs to go to the [Temple of Cain] to get a divine artifact, an extremely powerful artifact - the Sword of Cain.

That magical weapon will be an important support for fulfilling his long-cherished wish.

～～～～～～～～～～～～～

Boom boom boom--!

The magic artillery fired from the [Black Ark] continuously fired at the evil demon army on the land, and at the same time a large number of crossbow arrows were also shot at the demons in the air flying towards them.

These demons stationed near the Temple of Khaine were attacked by the dark elves, and the fierce artillery fire from the Black Ark caused them to suffer heavy losses for a time.

But soon after, the artillery fire stopped. As the Dark Elves suffered heavy casualties, the time for which these magic-powered artillery could provide artillery support was extremely limited.

A Hydra, accompanied by a large number of [Ark Pirates], rushed out of the gate of the [Black Ark] first and charged towards those [Slaanesh Plunderers].

"Break through their formation. I must get that sword!"

Malekith, the current ruler of the Dark Elves, stood on a chariot and personally commanded his troops, ordering his men to attack with all their might.

The Slaanesh troops here did not seem to expect the dark elves' surprise attack and were suppressed for a while.

But soon, these demons, who were considered crazy, began to counterattack the invading dark elf troops.
