Warhammer 40k Chaos Tyrant

"Actually, there is no need for you to follow." Chen Guo, who was wearing a basic space suit, looked at Madeleine Cullivan, who was fully armed next to her, with a look of helplessness in her eyes.

This woman is worthy of being a strong woman who dares to fall out with Astartes. She knows that the road ahead is extremely dangerous, but she still insists on going up. She has the same virtues as her aunt who is quite an adventurer and a hard-earned scholar. I don’t know if everyone in the Cullivan family is this stubborn.

"Your Excellency, you don't need to worry about me. If you are in danger, you can leave on your own."

"Leave on your own? You are standing and talking without pain in your back. If I sneak back alone, I won't even be able to get on the spaceship!" Chen Guo rolled her eyes and said, "By the way, have you reported the matter about the Word Bearers to the superiors?"

Madeleine Cullivan was silent, and after a while she said: "Please forget about this matter."

Looking at her expression, Chen Guo understood that this matter had been suppressed and someone didn't want to cause trouble for it.

It seems that what is supposed to come will eventually come...

"puff!"

There was a sudden violent vibration in the landing cabin, and the speed of descent began to slow down rapidly visible to the naked eye. Chen Guo knew that this was a sign that the landing wings were unfolding and they were about to land.

I glanced at the altitude display above my head and saw that there was still less than five thousand meters away, and it would take more than ten seconds to land.

The retainers and mercenaries in the cabin loaded their weapons and prepared for the coming battle.

"Your Excellency~"

Madeleine Cullivan handed a laser gun to Chen Guo, but Chen Guo shook his head. He was not used to this thing. There was no recoil at all when shooting. It was no different from a water gun, which was very unpleasant.

"Winter~"

The landing cabin finally landed. The moment the cabin door opened, two or three retainers rushed out immediately, and soon a safety signal came from outside.

"The atmospheric pressure is high, a high-pressure world, the oxygen is low, there are no obviously non-breathable gases, you can breathe normally, the temperature is normal..."

As each piece of data was tested, the bulky spacesuit was taken off, and Chen Guo stepped on the wet soil.

They landed in a primeval forest, surrounded by towering trees that could only be hugged by a dozen people. The air was very humid, and the leaves around them were covered with water droplets. At a glance, it was clear that it had rained not long ago. .

"Master, the signal between us and other landing pods has been interrupted. Although the signal with the spacecraft has not been interrupted yet, it is also very unstable and may be interrupted at any time."

"Where was the last place where the signal from my aunt's team disappeared?"

"In the...southeast direction."

"Mark the location of the landing pod and set off."

"Wait a minute!" Chen Guo stopped Madeleine Cullivan, turned around and walked to a retainer with a smile, "Has the signal been sent?"

"Huh? What are you talking about?"

Chen Guo didn't talk nonsense to him, and directly pinched him off the ground with one hand. The electric light on his hand flashed rapidly, and the retainer immediately shook into a sieve.

"Put him down!"

Everyone was stunned, but soon, all the guns were pointed at Chen Guo. Even Madeline Cullivan looked confused. Although she did not raise her gun, she did not stop her subordinates. action.

However, when she saw the blue viscous liquid starting to flow from the retainer's body, she suddenly woke up and quickly scolded the retainers to put down their guns.

Seeing that there was no chance of a comeback, the retainer simply stopped resisting and turned directly into a gray faceless man, saying: "You can't kill me, but you will all die..."

"Hahaha." Chen Guo laughed suddenly and interrupted his words, "A certain guy said the same thing. She also said she wanted to come to me for revenge. It's a pity that she hasn't come to me again until now." I."

Chen Guo waved his hand, and an even more powerful electric current shot out of his body, melting him into a ball of blue liquid in the blink of an eye.

"Your Excellency... how did you discover him?" Before Madeleine Cullivan finished speaking, she saw Chen Guo disappearing from the place like a ghost, and then punched several retainers' heads quickly.

Not only did not a drop of blood flow out from the wounds of these retainers whose heads were shot, but the heads that were shattered and exploded by the fists began to slowly condense and heal.

"Not the head?"

Chen Guo grabbed a guy's body and tore it apart with both hands, pulling it into two pieces like plasticine. But what she didn't expect was that it was still alive, and the torn body was also slowing down. Slow healing.

"Does it have to be electricity?"

The mask flashed across Chen Guo's face, and she quickly observed the "plasticine" in front of her that was no longer human-like but still squirming.

After a while, he took action again, piercing the "plasticine body" with force, pinching a moving hard point and pulling it out directly from the body.

It was a very small crystal bead. In comparison, it was not much bigger than a sesame seed. But as this crystal bead was separated from the body, the squirming plasticine suddenly let out a weird scream, and then He immediately became limp and melted, no longer squirming and recovering.

Following the same pattern, Chen Guo also took out such small crystal beads from the bodies of other "plasticine". Even the existence of crystal beads was found in the mucus that he electrocuted to death, but this crystal bead The color is dull and shriveled, and the interior is full of fine cracks. I don't know if it is caused by strong current.

Compared to it, the other small crystal beads are relatively full, shiny, crystal clear, like beautiful blue gems.

Madeline Cullivan's face changed completely. So many of her retainers were framed for no reason, but she still didn't notice it at all. If she blindly believed these framed retainers at the critical moment, she would die without knowing how.

But... when were they framed?

"Madeline, you told me before that the advance team of your aunt's fleet landed on this planet and conducted a brief exploration, and then discovered the remains of the Golden Age on this planet, right!"

"...Yes, that's the news I got."

"Did they return to the fleet?"

"Should have. The advance fleet brought very few supplies and needed to return to the fleet frequently for supplies."

"Then I understand. I was wondering why rumors started to spread in the fleet for no apparent reason. It turned out that they had returned with the advance team a long time ago...or, the entire advance fleet may have been framed." Chen Guo's face was full of seriousness, "Quickly notify the ships. Didn't you say that another family head is here? Let him be responsible for urgently checking all the people in the fleet. No need to say more, give each person a knife. Those who bleed are normal people, and those who don't bleed are framed. For those who are framed, use electricity, fire, or throw them into space. Check quickly, otherwise, as time goes by, more and more people will be framed. Maybe... We can't go back."

"I understand!"

Madeline Cullivan took advantage of the signal being relatively stable at the moment and immediately contacted the fleet in space. She used a special code to talk to her uncle for a long time, and then said with a grim face: "Many people have been replaced. Uncle and his team found a large number of eaten corpses in some corners of the cabin, and there are more corpses that have not been found. They may have been thrown into space..."

"Oh, now I finally know why so many people came down, and there was no news in the end. It turned out that they were all backstabbed. This ability to take the blame for others at will is simply a natural killer. It should be blocked..."

Chen Guo closed his mouth urgently. It was still the Great Expedition period. The Assassin's Court was still the private army of the seal holder, Mr. Ma. It would not officially become a department of the empire until the Horus Rebellion broke out. Now, except for a few people who know about the Assassin's Court, it does not exist.

'Damn, I almost let it slip again. ’

I slapped myself twice in my heart. The lesson from Lu was still fresh in my mind. Some things are better to be kept to oneself for a lifetime.

After a moment of silence, Chen Guo silently said to Madeline Cullivan: "If I'm not mistaken, your aunt should have died. My advice is not to make any more unnecessary sacrifices. It's best to leave here as soon as possible while you can still go."

"Sir..." Madeline Cullivan struggled, but soon she became firm again, "Sir, you don't have to persuade me anymore. Even if my aunt is dead, I have to bring her body back. Please help me."

"You are so stubborn." Chen Guo frowned and didn't force it anymore. He turned around and put away the beads in his hand, "Did you bring explosives? Set up some traps here. I always feel that something is approaching here."

The retainers did not move, but just looked at Madeline Cullivan until the latter nodded, and then they began to skillfully set mines around the landing cabin.

While they were laying mines, Chen Guo checked the surviving retainers and counted the number of people.

Including him and Madeline Cullivan, there were only fourteen people left alive in their landing capsule.

In addition to the seven retainers of Madeline Cullivan, there were three interstellar mercenaries and two retainers of Madeline Cullivan's aunt... I don't know how many of these people will survive in the end.

Following the location of the signal, the team began to quickly move through the primeval forest, but not long after they walked out, a loud bang and dense explosions came from the forest behind them.

Chen Guo felt right. Sure enough, something found the landing capsule and triggered the mine trap built around the landing capsule.

Turning around and looking at the team that was stagnant and looking back, Chen Guo urged, "Don't look at it. You can't leave now even if you want to. But your mines are quite powerful. Don't forget to place some mines along the way to prevent those who are not killed from catching up and wasting time."

"Understood, sir."

In the blink of an eye, Chen Guo and his team had traveled through this vast primeval forest for several hours.

Except for Chen Guo, everyone else wore exoskeleton armor, so they made rapid progress. In just a few hours, they walked at least 200 kilometers. There was only a short distance left to the final target location, and it was estimated that they could reach it within half an hour at most.

During the time of rushing, the sound of mines exploding behind them came three times in succession. It seemed that the pursuers behind them were still unwilling to give up.

However, after the third explosion, the mines were never detonated again. It seemed that they either gave up or became alert and carefully avoided the mines.

Finally, after walking in this endless primeval forest for another half an hour, they finally saw a different scenery.

Although they were still in the primeval forest, a huge cave opening that went down appeared in everyone's sight.

After checking the soil at the entrance of the cave that was obviously trampled by many people, the tracking expert among Madeline Cullivan's retainers immediately made a positive voice: "In a few days, at least hundreds of people have passed by here, and all of them walked inward, and no one walked outward."

"That should be here, send a signal beacon to the spacecraft, and let the surrounding teams gather here... Your Excellency, what's wrong with you?" Madeline Cullivan suddenly stopped giving orders and looked at Chen Guo with a puzzled look.

Chen Guo had the same expression as her at the moment, except that he was facing a retainer.

Although Chen Guo did not dare to guarantee that the retainer had not left his sight throughout the whole process, he could guarantee that nothing happened along the way, and he kept a close eye on everyone's movements.

But just now, when he habitually scanned everyone with the face of truth, he unexpectedly discovered that this retainer had been switched without anyone noticing.

"Sir, what's wrong?" The retainer who was switched in front of him also pretended to be innocent. He looked at Chen Guo in front of him, but a trace of incredible fear flashed in his eyes... He was so perfect in making a substitute, but he was discovered?

What the hell is this human being?

"Heh~"

Chen Guo didn't waste any words. He punched through his chest with one punch and took out the blue bead with force. Seeing this retainer screaming and quickly melting into a pool of blue liquid, everyone present gasped.

If the colleagues who were substituted before were killed by a dark hand when no one was around, it would be excusable.

But this retainer has always been with them, how could he be substituted?

Suddenly, everyone looked at their companions with suspicion, until Madeline Cullivan ordered them to take out their daggers and cut their hands. Seeing that the wound was not blue liquid but red blood, everyone put down their hearts.

"I personally suggest that you send a beacon to the spacecraft, but you don't need to fire a flare. No one knows how many people have been replaced. It's better not to expose the position first."

"Understood, sir!"

Madeline Cullivan completely followed Chen Guo's lead. She did whatever Chen Guo said, as if she regarded Chen Guo as her backbone.

The surviving communicator quickly sent the beacon back to the spacecraft. Chen Guo no longer hesitated and immediately led the team into the downward cave.

His premonition told him that Madeline Cullivan's aunt should not be dead, but she might not be far away from death, so if he wanted to save her, he had to speed up.
