Chapter 398 Approaching the Temple Demon Engine
Benson woke up from a brief unconsciousness. The squad leader's body was still hanging on the front of the sentry. Seeing the armless Midnight Lord trying to escape, he endured the discomfort of tinnitus and started the chain saw, controlling the sentry to stand up.
The heavy plasma cannon briefly stored energy and fired a shot, but the tilted fuselage caused the shell to lose its accuracy, and the plasma ball that should have hit the lower back only hit the opponent's right foot.
With a "bang", the Midnight Lord who had lost his calf rolled to the ground. He quickly pulled out his bolt pistol and shot at the sentry who was rushing towards him like a mad bull.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The already incomplete squad leader was now broken into even smaller pieces, along with Benson's heart.
“Die!”
The roaring chainsaw sword collided with the power armor, dense sparks disappeared in an instant, followed by gushing blood and broken internal organs.
“Buzz buzz buzz…!”
“Aaaaah…!”
When the Midnight Lord in front of him was shattered to pieces, Benson came back to his senses after hearing the squad leader's faint call.
He opened the hatch, stepped on the steaming shell of the chainsaw sword, looked at the squad leader whose face had been disfigured beyond recognition, and put his ear close to catch the faint sound.
"Use...my knife...to destroy those...missiles. Without them...the subsequent brothers...will be able to...reach...safely!"
The passing voice seems insignificant in the noise, but it has not disappeared. Instead, it has been picked up by someone and kept in their heart.
Benson took off the red scarf from the squad leader's head and tied it around his own forehead, inserted the sword that represented entrustment and hope into his belt, and then placed the dead body under the shade of the trees.
The Night Lords were dead, the Iron Warriors were dead, and his teammates were all dead, leaving no one who could help him change the magazine.
"Let me complete the task!"
Benson restarted the sentry to sound the alarm. The promethium delivery pipe was broken and he had no time to repair it. The energy magazine was empty and he couldn't replace it by himself. After that shot, the plasma cannon could not store energy.
It seemed as if God was playing a malicious joke on him, as the only remaining Hellfire could not be launched due to the damage of its aiming system.
All he had left, besides a chainsword, was a sword.
"enough!"
Benson felt a sense of confidence from nowhere, and the fear of death disappeared from him. Now the only thing roaring in his heart was the desire for victory.
In the rocket launcher position, the rebels were loading ammunition into the demon engine. When they heard a discordant rumble, the broken sentinel was already rushing towards them.
"Fire! Fire!"
Benson turned a deaf ear to them. He placed all his guns in front of the walker to block the bullets and laser fire, and rushed forward with his only focus on the running ferocious demon engine.
"Die!"
The chainsaw stabbed into the strange body that was covered with steam and oil, and it cut the cables and metal winch brutally, making "bang bang" sounds until the chainsaw broke.
"Catch this bastard alive!"
Seeing that the sentry was powerless to resist, the rebels hurriedly tried to pull out Benson by force.
But in a flash, the sword flashed with a cold light, and the arm holding the gun was split in two. Before the rebel felt the pain, a hint of coldness appeared in his wide mouth.
The gushing blood splashed all over Benson's face. Just as he wiped his face and prepared to fight, the enemy's gun butt hit him back.
With a "bang", Benson felt that he had lost a few teeth while half-conscious.
"I'm going to make him into a machine slave and torture him for the rest of his life!"
The rebel leader shouted angrily, unaware of the shadow passing overhead.
When the dotted shadows came, they looked up and found that they were teams of Catachan jungle warriors who broke through the anti-aircraft firepower and descended from high altitude.
"over.."
Catachan warriors dropped from the sky, and the reinforcements who arrived from their strongholds used jet packs to fight alone. Their nimble movements were like those of cheetahs running wildly, and their bold and powerful sword techniques represented unrivaled power.
“Swish! Swish! Whoosh!”
Sprint and attack with a horizontal cut around the head, one cut off the hand; slide and flip the wrist and chop diagonally, two cuts off the leg; lunge and throw and spin out, three cuts into the brain.
Three slashes killed two people, and the next second the explosive pistol on the waist roared, "bang bang" two shots went straight to the face, one shot hit the eye, and the other shot also hit the eye.
"Pop!" The white, yellow and red all disappeared in the fireworks...
"Go! Go! Go! Go! Take down all the firing points and melt these beasts with your anger! Protect this warrior. We will take over his mission. Immediately build a defense line and advance towards the beacon point."
When Benson heard Colonel Hafari's loud voice, his body softened and he almost fainted.
"Set up the mortars, aim at 4800 meters, and bombard the 16 positions directly ahead for five fucking minutes! Each shell will land 5 meters apart, advance in sequence, and fire!"
The siege mortar was immediately dropped to the ground. The soldiers dragged the simple-structured gun body to find the correct position, then removed the wheels, opened the tripod and fixed it to the ground.
One round was loaded, ten rounds were fired at the same time, and a hundred rounds were ready to be loaded. After a loud "bang", the shells jumped high, passed through the towering forest canopy and fell into the crowd several kilometers away.
"BOOM!"
The 240mm mortar roared, and the promethium incendiary bomb flew thousands of meters and exploded on the ground, instantly igniting the ground of dozens of meters and forming a sea of fire.
The mortars in the Krieg Death Corps are simple, durable, cheap and tough.
More and more mortars continued to join the battlefield, and under the cover of jungle fighters in front, they launched saturation bombing on the area around the temple.
The rebels were thrown to the ground and wailing, but in the entire temple and the surrounding 500 meters, a light blue void shield film suddenly appeared close to the side of the cliff.
The burning promethium could not penetrate its powerful protective barrier and could only reflect the cold and silent figures of the iron warriors standing on the steps.
"My Lord, the Catachan jungle warriors sent a large number of transport ships to attack us. We have hacked into their communication channels, but it is not clear whether they know our plan.
Using the previously arranged anti-aircraft firepower network, we eliminated half of the aircraft group, but the opponent's subsequent support quickly arrived at the border. Preliminary estimates show that the opponent's manpower is now around 4000 people.
This also includes some of the Order's Skitarii. They are more familiar with the jungle environment than we are and are advancing very quickly. Should we send a signal for assistance to the ship?"
A certain Iron Warrior quickly spoke to an Iron Warrior with an arm that was glowing and looked like a whole piece of metal, but was not a mechanical structure.
But the guy looked up not at the soldier behind him, but stared at the huge and ancient bronze mirror and said:
"Prepare the ships and avoid the temple within 1.2 kilometers. Carry out a saturation attack on the surrounding land within 4.8 kilometers. Then release the demon engine to destroy the remaining enemy forces."
"There are auxiliary troops and our brothers in the surrounding areas. The Midnight Lords and several other warbands are also scattered among them. Hong Suo..."
"If you don't complete it within the time limit, we will no longer be brothers."
The cold words interrupted the soldier, and the Iron Warrior paused, then sighed and walked away quickly. The soldier named Hong Suo looked down at his silver-white arm and continued to operate the equipment in front of him.
The orbital shooting reached the ground within two minutes. The terrifying spears of light melted through the woods and poured into the ground. Explosions and deaths occurred one after another as expected. Corpses were everywhere but disappeared in the light. They thought they had sounded the clarion call for a counterattack but unexpectedly they attracted a more dangerous attack.
"Evacuate to the outside world and run to the bombed pits!"
In the scattered light curtain all over the sky, the colonel commanded everyone to avoid the attack as much as possible, but the dense light curtain that did not distinguish between friend and foe had only one purpose, which was to kill all living things on the ground.
Jungle warriors, Chaos rebels, Order Crusaders, Chaos warbands, no matter where they came from, the spears of light representing destruction pierced through and evaporated them.
After about dozens of seconds, the blinding light finally dissipated, and the earth finally stopped shaking. Looking from the air, except for the central area of the temple, as much as 70% of the vegetation within several kilometers around it had disappeared.
The donut-shaped charred earth exudes a dead silence, but this is Catachan, and while it is dangerous, it also represents vitality.
The lucky soldiers raised their heads, shook off the dirt on their heads, picked up their slightly hot swords, pulled up their teammates who were still alive, and gathered the troops to point to the temple.
"Everyone, the surviving warriors, gather immediately to the northwest of the temple, send out reinforcement requests to other strongholds, and hold this place until they arrive!"
Amid the colonel's desperate cries, the three people who had managed to survive with the help of the energy-absorbing device and the Zakli Think Tank's psychic shield jumped out of the pit. Looking at the battlefield filled with smoke and corpses, Rebos pointed at the temple and determined that the situation inside should have reached the final deadline.
"Order ship, this is the ground. The first wave of teams was wiped out by the enemy. We are now sending follow-up reinforcements to the scene. The forest has been cleared and large machinery can be deployed."
"The Order received, the first wave of deployment is ready, the rebel legion Iron Warriors orbital ship has been found, and it will be driven away and attacked immediately."
The battle in space will soon begin, and the armed forces deployed by each of them will start fighting on the ground first.
"Bang bang bang bang!"
The airdrop pod crashed to the ground, and when the hatch opened, the fully armed Tie Yong immediately formed a shield wall and began to advance, but what was shocking was not this group of rebellious fighters.
When those strange demon engines let out roars with the breath of the Warp, all kinds of blasphemers, forge demons, and hammer demons appeared and started killing.
Chaos Forge Fiend, slightly larger than the Dreadnought
"HOONNNNNNGGGGGGGG!"
The fighter jet, twisted by the evil magic of the subspace, turned into a hell dragon, swooping down with its fangs bared and claws spewing raging fire. To the Zakli Think Tank, the so-called roars sounded like the screams of the pilot's soul.
The scorching flames filled with the power of the warp flooded the earth, and the jungle warriors who had just gathered were instantly reduced to ashes. Walls of fire began to form near the temple, blocking the crowd that dared to approach.
Fortunately, the forces of the Order finally arrived. After several transmission beams lit up for no reason, the remaining jungle warriors suddenly found that the firepower behind them had suddenly doubled.
Turning around, I saw huge fighters slowly stepping out from the light, and the various weapons on their shoulders, chests, and arms spewed out equally deadly fireworks.
Iron Bear Swarm, Castle Lord-level Mechas, Iron Cavalry-level Mechas, Conquest-level Mechas, Destruction-level Mechas, all those high-level combat forces that are completely invisible in normal situations are all present.
Iron Cavalry
The Crusaders leapt down from the sky and attacked quickly. The airdropped Wild Donkey Crawlers used their iron claws and anti-gravity suspension system to fix directly on the thick tree trunks and act as fixed turrets.
The armaments of both sides are immediately upgraded. The new round of fighting is more chaotic and dangerous than the previous one. With all the means used, one corner of Catachan will be baptized again and again.
Power hammers, mechanical claws, beam lasers, heavy bombs, plasma cannons, neutron rays, phosphorescent heavy artillery, melta guns, automatic machine guns, they can't wait to display all the weapons in this sudden battle.
Traditional infantry weapons would only scratch the demon engines, and even a plasma pistol would only leave a pitiful mark the size of a fist.
Killing Level
In order to kill the opponent, apart from a larger caliber, one must have absolutely terrifying strength, or psychic power like the Zakli Think Tank, or the "truth" in Caroline's hands.
"Bang bang bang bang!"
In such a battle, a bolt gun with a relatively small caliber actually unleashed the most powerful combat power. When Caroline saw the demon engine appear, her heart was filled with turmoil.
The "truth" in his hand was frighteningly hot, as if the other person was resonating with his heart, and the glow was restrained and the energy was surging.
A shot was fired, and the Kraken armor-piercing bullet engraved with inscriptions hit the connection of the Desecrator's winch. The fist-sized penetrating wound made it difficult for the crab-like demon engine to turn.
Demon Engine Desecrator
Two shots were fired, and the black dome bombs that had also been modified hit the wound directly, and the blasphemer who was running was instantly blown into pieces.
The demon living inside was still trying to cheer for life, but when it felt the poisonous light in the fireworks, it was destroyed in the surging fireworks without even a wail.
With the blessing of the Divine Emperor's power and the high-standard ammunition forged by Rebos, it is a double blow on the physical and psychic levels. No living or mechanical creature can withstand the bombardment.
"The Emperor's daughter is awesome! Set up an advance line around the nun, strive to end the battle and call the Emperor daddy!!!"
