Travel to Warhammer 40K with Gray Wind

Perhaps because of the special nature of the Maelstrom itself, which overlaps with the Warp, psykers are more susceptible to the influence of the High Heavens here than in any other area of ​​the physical universe.

After looking directly at the dark sun hanging high above the sea of ​​souls, the navigator received the emperor's oracle with clarity, not at all Riddler.

This is an unprecedented thing. As far as Russell knows, subspace gods, including human emperors, directly interfere with reality. This will only happen frequently after the beginning of the "Unyielding Era" in the 42nd millennium after the Great Rift unfolded.

It's about 1,000 years from now.

The navigator "Diamond Reiput" now clearly knows the secrets of the planet in front of him, and he also has an epiphany about his mission.

"Fabius Bayer is on this planet."

Diamond turned around, opened his hands to the crystal planet in front of him and performed a complete Aquila salute. A low voice came from his body, as if there were hundreds of tired souls overlapping in this body:

"I have been inspired by the God Emperor. You should work with me to spread the light of the Golden Throne to the star of 'Karen' and complete the mission assigned by the Lord of Humanity."

Following the will of the God-Emperor, everyone in the command room, except for the Truth Monk standing behind the Eldar Banshee, knelt down on one knee at this moment and swore allegiance to Diamond, who had become a 'saint'.

The panic of being separated from the main force was quickly diluted by the arrival of the saint. The crew members of the Lady of Jealousy quickly cheered up and regrouped, constantly trying to locate the ship's location and trying to reconnect with the Vicious Woman.

Knowing that Fabius Bayer was here, all the carrier-based detectors of the Lady of Jealousy were activated, and some small carrier-based aircraft that were easy to hide were also secretly dispatched to conduct a survey on the crystal planet in front of them. Targeted environmental surveys.

Following the guidance of Saint Diamond, they quickly obtained basic information about this crystal planet called "Karen".

"Karen is a demonic planet controlled by evil gods. Its core is an ancient ruins filled with the power of chaos. A large number of mutants gather around the ruins mountains and constantly fight against each other, competing to enter the deepest part and seize the treasures. 'Opportunity."

"There are a large number of mutants mutated from humans on the planet Karen. There are still some traces of Gothic in their messy language. By capturing and interrogating mutants, we learned that earlier, a barge It crashed near the ruins valley, and then a strange man with complicated mechanical arms fell from the sky, killed a large number of mutants and entered the valley."

They had every reason to conclude that this weirdo was the mad biologist who escaped from Gormek with the Encyclopedia of Organisms, Fabius Bayer.

The Lady of Jealousy was parked above the orbit of Karen, continuing to try to locate its position amidst the heavy subspace interference and make contact with the Valkyrie flagship.

Although the monks stationed by the Order of Truth repeatedly reminded everyone on our side that it would be more prudent to wait until the large force of the expedition fleet arrived before taking action, the crew members who had already fallen into the craze of holy war did not pay attention to him at all. Even if the sparse and elite Eldar Banshee squad cannot be mobilized, a large number of mortal soldiers have begun to be sent to the surface via heavy transport aircraft.

Due to the positioning of the Jealous Lady as a "heavy artillery ship", the battleship does not carry much land power. There is only one Cybrex battle tank parked in the hangar, the Imperial Guard's standard Baneblade tanks and There were quite a few Chimera armored personnel carriers, and they were all deployed into the ruins mountains filled with mutant corpses.

A large number of modular automatic bunkers and "Aegis" simple defense templates were airdropped to the dreamy and beautiful crystal surface of Karen Star, and were assembled in a very short time into an imperial defense line deployed with plasma obliterators and revenge artillery. Humanity's sacred Skull signs appeared at strategic locations such as the commanding heights of the ruins mountains, completely blocking the ruins valley.

Mortals full of fighting spirit are holding the pulse rifles and plasma pistols in their hands behind the defense line. This group of fanatic believers driven by religious fanaticism will spend the next time with their own lives to guard the newly built imperial defense line and prevent the continuous The influx of mutants entered the ruins and interfered with the God-Emperor's saints from fulfilling his great mission.

The battle broke out even before the defense line was fully set up.

Accompanied by frequent explosions and intensive firing of pulse rifles, Saint Diamond, Inquisitor Bernadette, as well as several Ecclesiastical Priests, Adeptus Mechanicus Engine Seers, and Brotherhood of Truth, among the elite veterans of the Imperial Guard, Under the protection of a squad of veterans, they descended to the bottom of the ruins valley.

The entrance to the ruins itself is very hidden. The Karen star, which is entirely made of transparent crystal, is a huge mirror maze as a whole. The auspicious instrument was interfered with by the power of chaos and failed. People walking deep in the valley could not distinguish between the mountain itself and the illusion reflected by the crystal. They could not even confirm whether the steps under their feet were solid or not. Every step was smooth. tremble with fear.

But Diamond seemed not to be affected by the Crystal Maze at all. His steps were very fast, and every step he took was extremely firm, as if there was a target with a highlighted red name in front of him, inducing him to speed up his pace and pass through a series of paths or steps. Wide or narrow sharp cracks.

This situation made the accompanying soldiers more convinced that he was the one who carried the emperor's will, and their belief in their hearts became more fanatical. This fanatical belief in turn alleviated the erosion of chaos that became increasingly intense as they continued to penetrate deeper into the ruins, forming a somewhat The cycle of heresy.

But soon, everyone's progress was stopped by a loud noise.

The guard soldiers clenched their weapons vigilantly and raised their heads following the sound, seeing a large amount of crystal debris falling from their heads. The place they were in was a natural crack deep in the crystal mountain. The loud noise just now was nothing else. It was the crack that suddenly opened further and became bigger.

"The mountain is further crumbling. Is it caused by the ground fighting?" the engine prophet in the team subconsciously said.

After all, among the troops deployed to the ground battlefield, there is a Cerberus combat body with specifications equivalent to the Warrior-class Titan. It is not surprising that the powerful firepower of the Titan's divine machine will affect the shallow geological structure of the planet.

Everyone accepted this statement at first, and the group continued to move deeper while eliminating the mutant monsters entrenched in the corners of the ruins. However, as they went deeper and deeper, the noise in the mountain not only did not weaken, but intensified further.

This time, the Engine Prophet could not give a reasonable explanation. The depth they were now at had exceeded the range of Titan's firepower. Unless the Jealous Lady parked in orbit directly launched an orbital bombing of Karen, it would be absolutely impossible. It is impossible to cause geological fluctuations of such depth.

But that is even more impossible to happen. The ships of the Human Empire will never launch bombings on the planet where the saint lives. Even the planet where the saint is blessed will be enshrined as a shrine world, and countless noble officials will squeeze their heads to do it. Allow yourself and your family members to be buried on it after death.

At this time, Diamond, who had not stopped, finally stopped and said: "Bayer has taken away the treasure deep in the ruins, which is the foundation of this planet's existence. The planet Karen is about to collapse, and we must evacuate as soon as possible."

There was a loud boom and the mountain shook violently.

The saint advised his followers, but no one chose to retreat. They were all ready to fight and die for the emperor.

At this time, 4 hours had passed since they entered the ruins. Only two Guard veterans were forced to return to the surface to inform the ground troops fighting the mutant settlement to evacuate. The rest followed the saint and continued to move forward.

As they got closer, through the crystal mountain wall that was as clear as ice, everyone could already feel a strange hot feeling. This feeling was not just a simple temperature, but something deeper.

Because whether it is a mortal soldier wearing standard power armor or an Anglican priest wearing a robe; from Bernadita holding the blood-drinking magic sword to the engine prophet with little flesh on his body; everyone feels it very clearly Here it is, that icy heat.

Their bodies were so hot that they were sweating, but their souls were shivering with cold.

"he came."

"He's in there."

After passing through a winding path and squeezing through crystal cracks as sharp as a knife, the darkness suddenly opened up, and a wide cave hall was revealed in front of you.

No one in the team carries a light source. The standard power armor worn by the mortal soldiers is equipped with an airtight helmet that integrates multiple sensing methods such as infrared scanners and thermal vision. Even in darkness, it does not prevent them from seeing the scene in front of them clearly.

It was a hellish scene.

There are countless dry and crispy bones scattered in the wide cave hall deep in the mountain. They crackle like a layer of potato chips when you step on them. Some are human and some are alien, but most of them are mutated due to chaos pollution. Of grotesque mutants.

Countless skeletons are piled up on the outside. In the center of the cave hall is a triangular altar made of dark rocks. In the center is a huge eye symbol composed of 8 simple lines.

The closer you get to the center of the altar, the cold and weird feeling of heat becomes stronger. There was a subtle crackling sound like burning wood in the darkness, but few people could relate to it - most of the soldiers of the Imperial Guard came from the middle and lower classes of the hive city, and may never see living plants in their lives.

Diamond raised his head and stared at the inconspicuous figure hidden in the corner of the altar through camouflage camouflage. The highlighted red name was so eye-catching to him: "Bayer..."

"Shoot!" Bernadita shouted, inserting the Blood-Drinking Demonic Sword back into her waist, and pulled out the bolt gun and plasma pistol on both sides of her thighs with both hands.

The vast majority of soldiers have not found the target yet, but this does not prevent them from using the pulse rifles in their hands to fire a volley in the general direction of the commander's muzzle. The dense pulse beams tear apart the people entrenched in the triangular altar. The deep dark fantasy above also reflected the pale ashes on the ground.

Bernadita's forehead pupils shrank slightly. It seemed that a massacre, an evil sacrifice, had just occurred here not long ago. She seemed to have guessed where the cold yet hot feeling just came from.

Then, a scream confirmed her thoughts.

Several soldiers on the periphery suddenly ignited flames darker than the lightless darkness, penetrating the power armor and burning flesh and soul. Amidst the painful struggles and screams of the elite veterans of the Imperial Guard, a black shadow resembling a humanoid spider flashed past.

Obviously, the shot just now failed to hurt Bair. He is an extremely powerful Astartes.

But I have never heard of any Astartes having the ability to ignite people out of thin air... Bernadita held the gun in both hands and looked around warily. The flames burning on the ignited soldiers were no ordinary flames, and they could not be extinguished at all. The comrades beside them could only watch as they turned into a puddle of white ash in pain.

Thinking back to what the saint just said, Fabius Bayer has seized the treasures in the ruins here and taken away the foundation of the existence of this planet. The dark flame that burns people out of thin air to ashes may be that item. "Treasure" ability.

In the short moment she was thinking, several more soldiers were ignited by the black flames and fell down screaming.

The mountain above the head kept groaning and breaking and deforming, and a large number of crystal fragments were scattered, indicating that the planet was heading toward collapse.

"We must deal with Bayer as soon as possible and recapture the entire book from him." Bernadita muttered silently, inserted the bolt pistol back into the side of her thigh, and freed her hand to pull out the Blood-Drinking Demon Sword.

She took a deep breath and opened the book of joy hanging on her waist.

The pleasure spell from Slaanesh can greatly increase the sensitivity of the nerves and the excitement of the muscles, making her senses sharper and her movements faster in a short period of time - so fast that she can almost catch up with the Eldar.

But the side effect is that for a long time to come, the secretion collection and cleaning system built into her power armor will always be fully loaded with work.

When Fabius Bayer's figure emerged from the darkness again, two figures holding spears quickly ran out. The Astartes are far superior to mortals in terms of reaction speed and action ability, but they are still far inferior to the Eldar who claim to be perfect creatures.

Even with the home field advantage and the blessing of the Chaos Relic, Bayer still could not escape the pursuit of the two banshees. The built-in psychic circuit of the lobbyist mecha increased their proud agility, the ejection of their legs and their spiritual bones. The thrust of the spear happened almost in a matter of millimeters.

There was an ear-piercing buzzing sound, and the sharp spear tip entwined with the psychic decomposition force field was driven deeply into the black stone altar faster than the nails fired by the nail gun, piercing through a snake that was struggling and dancing like a living snake. The surgical circular saw at the end of the robotic arm makes a rustling sound.

Bayer, who had lost a mechanical arm, rolled and crashed into the queue of mortal soldiers. Although he was embarrassed, he had observed that none of the soldiers had taken out their melee weapons, and firing a pulse rifle at close range would definitely hurt friendly troops. A rat-throwing weapon...

The bright beam tore apart Fabius Bayer's fantasy and the surrounding darkness. The fanatical soldiers did not care that their own guns would accidentally injure their teammates, nor did they care that their comrades' rifles shot through them. Shout slogans and pull the trigger.

"For the Emperor!"

"For the Emperor!"

At this moment, hundreds of pulse rays were fired, but less than 10 of them successfully hit Fabius Bayer's body. Most of the rest were cleverly avoided, effectively harvesting the emperor. The lives of the emperor’s loyal servants.

Taking advantage of the short gap between the two rounds of shooting, Bernadita seized the opportunity and rushed to the seriously injured Fabius Bayer before the two banshees. She straddled Bayer's chest with her whole body weight, her legs firmly stepped on the mechanical arm behind him, the blood-red sword blade was placed on the opponent's neck, and the dark and thick barrel of the bolt pistol was directly inserted. in his mouth.

"Hand over the entire tome and I will grant you a merciful death."

The expression on Bernadita's helmeted face was indistinguishable. Her voice hid a subtle tremor, and her body was slightly convulsed by the strong stimulation. The air was filled with the strange aroma of burnt protein. Mortal soldiers pierced by pulse rays.

At this time, the surviving soldiers finally got a glimpse of the terrifying attacker:

Fabius Bayer's face was pale. I don't know whether it was due to nature or excessive blood loss. Now it seemed to be the former, because the armor he was wearing had several blackened bullet holes penetrated by pulse rifles, but none of them were there. Oozing blood.

The spider-like mechanical arm behind Bayer is very eye-catching, but the most eye-catching thing is not the flamboyant mechanical arm, but his left arm.

From the elbow joint down, Bair's left arm is a completely black curved long claw. This black and ferocious claw is not the power claw that the space warriors in the Great Crusade era would equip, but something else.

Fabius Bayer gritted his teeth, and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. At this moment, this crazy doctor's face could not see any trace of the rationality or madness of a biologist, and the bulging veins on his forehead told his story. Boundless anger.

Bayer became angry. In his rage, he ignored the death threats that were close at hand and slowly raised his left hand——

——Ebony Claw.
