The Protoss in Warhammer

Chapter 239 227. The World of the Dead (III)

Death will never stop, it will keep moving forward and devour everything.

Charlemagne carried his severely worn electromagnetic rifle and continued to move forward on the land that was already a wasteland. A week ago, those damned space undead used terrible antimatter bombs to bombard the entire surface of the planet, turning all the fortifications on it into ruins.

Luckily, those guys also considered their hometown and did not really eradicate the entire surface of the planet, otherwise their underground tombs would also be damaged.

But even if those damned guys did not do this, those terrible subspace shields would kill them. The most terrifying thing about the space undead is not the weapons that fire Gauss electric guns, nor the countless undead warriors, but the terrible subspace shielding weapons they have never seen before. This weapon killed almost all the Kalai Protoss on the first day, and in the following time, it successfully made most of the army lose their resistance.

During those one or two days, Charlemagne looked at his comrades in despair, one by one falling to the ground, wailing in pain. Some people couldn't bear it, took out their weapons and ended their lives. At that time, he also thought that he could not survive, because this feeling was really like a knife cutting his soul.

Fortunately, some surviving local staff and engineers finally came up with a way. They collected some psychic batteries and webway beacons, and transformed them with protective clothing to create an artificial subspace environment in the protective clothing.

This environment is not a real subspace, but more like being able to put people wearing protective clothing into the webway. However, with the help of the navigation system, they did not really enter the dark etheric space, but they could breathe the energy of the subspace through this space and get the projection replenishment in time.

But this kind of protective clothing is very dangerous. Once the beacon is destroyed, the use of the protective clothing will be immediately transmitted to the dangerous transportation system. A very few lucky people will be found and rescued by a passing cargo ship within dozens of days, those who are unlucky will starve to death, and the most unlucky group will be found by the people of the Dark City...

But no matter what, they are temporarily safe, and they can stay in a safe space at any time except for eating and excreting. But this also makes them unable to face the battle, and they also need to constantly search for supplies outside.

Maintaining the beacon requires a large number of batteries, and psychic batteries are already non-renewable energy on this planet, because this type of battery needs to be supplemented with a large amount of electricity and can only be used in an environment with subspace energy. This design can help him get electricity at any time, but at this time it is a matter of life and death.

So the survivors on the planet have no way to think about how to counterattack. Their biggest problem now is how to save their lives. While going out to collect the necessary survival resources, they may also scout the local space undead strongholds and record them in preparation for the subsequent attack of reinforcements.

"Have you rested? We have to move on. I have seen our target."

When he sat down, the soldier wearing heavy protective clothing on the other side had successfully found their target and began to call his companions to move forward. A relatively well-preserved warehouse appeared in front of them. Before the orbital bombing, a large amount of food, ammunition and the most important batteries were stored here.

The 12 people carefully covered each other, and behind them followed a floating flatbed truck assisted by artificial intelligence to place the goods.

Carefully bypassing the blown-up cement slabs and hardened ground, they came to the warehouse. The warehouse was in a semi-collapsed state. Fortunately, there was a pillar supporting the other side of the warehouse. There was no need to use precious resources to cut the hard alloy door with a pneumatic gun.

Charlemagne tried hard not to observe the bodies of his comrades on the ground. Many of them died without any injuries, and the dirty clothes and weapons that fell on the ground should be the last relics of the Kalai Protoss who once guarded here.

What makes people feel sad is that the souls that died here have no way to return to the reincarnation of the soul. They can only be sealed here and slowly wait for extinction.

But Charlemagne no longer has time to care about the problem of the dead. Now they have to care about the problem of the living.

A dozen people carefully searched in the warehouse, trying not to make any noise to attract the damned steel skeletons. Fortunately, most of the supplies here were not destroyed, and soon a large amount of military rations and brand-new weapons and equipment were found, and of course, the most important energy batteries.

The soldiers carefully left most of the space for batteries and guns, because there was still a lot of food in their hiding place, but weapons were important life-saving tools. As for the people in the two brand-new Kirin tanks, no one cared at all, because they knew very well that as long as they dared to drive the vehicles out, the opponent's air force would quickly discover and destroy them.

So the best way now is to transport all the items back without making a sound, so that the final goal can be achieved.

Just as they were transporting the cart and preparing to leave, a meteor shower suddenly began to fall in the sky. Charlemagne could tell at a glance that it was an orbital airborne landing, and he couldn't help saying excitedly

"It's reinforcements, our reinforcements have arrived!"

After seeing this, a soldier next to him estimated the number in the sky and said

"Probably a reconnaissance force. If we're lucky, about half of them can get to the ground."

As if to confirm what he said, those damn Necron began to take action. A large number of turrets drilled out of the surface to attack, destroying those fearless warriors. But soon, the fleet in orbit began to fight back and successfully suppressed the Necron.

"It seems we are going to be saved. There is no way these skeletons can survive for a while!"

A soldier couldn't help but said after seeing it, and Charlemagne discovered some clues. After urgently moving some people to his screen, he found an airdrop warehouse very close to him and immediately said

"We found an airdrop warehouse, which is only about two kilometers away from us. Do you want to go to support?"

After hearing this, the leading noncommissioned officer immediately agreed with their opinion. After all, more comrades in arms needed support and encouragement.

The team immediately divided the work and asked three people to go back first with supplies, while the others went to pick up the supplies. In their view, the day of counterattack is not far away.
