Warhammer: Hail to the Void Lords!.

Chapter 731 07.730: "Limit for (asking for monthly ticket)"

Horatio led the Holy Rose and the Kriegs through the corridors of the tomb hall.

Their hurried footsteps echoed in the empty passage, like the cry of a night owl, breaking the silence.

The tomb hall was filled with an old atmosphere. In the darkness, only their moving figures were vaguely visible in the swaying light and shadow.

The scarlet letters were keenly aware of the movement in the darkness.

After a brief silence, streams of plasma shot out like arrows from a bow, pouring towards the group of "cans" that looked like only ashes left.

Faced with the sudden attack, the Thousand Sons Wizard who had been hiding for a long time had to raise his staff high. A ball of blue flame bloomed above his head, like a strange star, which was particularly eye-catching in the darkness.

"It's him!" Seeing this, Horatio suddenly raised the Holy Blood Chainsword in his hand and shouted loudly, and his voice echoed in the tomb hall for a long time.

Whoosh!Whoosh!
The Thousand Sons Rubric Warrior flashed and disappeared from the position where he was chasing Thei, teleporting to the direction where Horatio was leading his team, trying to stop the Imperial Army.

However, as soon as they landed on the ground, a ball of hot plasma accurately hit the chest of a Rubric Warrior.

The powerful impact and burning caused the warrior to stagger back, and then the battle sisters poured out a torrential rain of bolter fire.

The red-letter warrior's helmet and arm armor were blown away like broken tiles under the intensive firepower, and fell to the ground with a dull sound.

Bright sand that flashed with fluorescent light floated out from the cracks in the broken armor, shining strangely in the darkness.

"Everything is dust. Everything is dust. Everything is dust. Everything is dust. Everything is dust."

Strange whispers came from these broken shells.

The sound was not like the sound made by mortal creatures through their throats and other organs. It was more like a whisper coming from the bottom of everyone's heart, echoing in their minds, making them feel creepy.

At the same time, a blue barrier instantly rose in front of them.

Ordinary bullets and plasma energy collided with the magic screen, only causing its light to dim slightly, and then disappeared.

This magic screen was like a void shield, seeming to transmit the energy of the attack to the unreachable highest sky.

At this moment, the Thousand Sons warriors seemed to have regained some of their former fighting desire. Under the cover of the magic screen, they smoothly raised their bolter rifles and aimed at the attacking Imperial Army.

boom!
At the first gunshot, a Krieg soldier was instantly engulfed in raging flames and shattered into a pile of charred blocks without a trace of human form in the blink of an eye.

This is the Hellfire Bolt Arrow unique to the Thousand Sons. It is said that each shot of these ammunitions, which are soaked in the vicious power of the Warp, can cause extremely horrific collateral damage to the target.

The charging Kriegs were constantly hit by Hellfire bolts. Their bodies turned into charred corpses in the powerful psychic flames and fell to the cold ground one after another.

But this horrific death did not stop the soldiers from charging silently.

Indeed, the Hellfire Bolt is extremely powerful, and the powerful psychic flames can even burn a person's soul to ashes.

However, these ordinary Astra Militarum soldiers were made of nothing but flesh and blood, not the solid ceramic bodies of the Astartes.

For them, no matter if there is collateral damage or not, once they are hit, their fragile bodies will be shattered in an instant.

Therefore, the Hellfire Bolter is a terrifyingly powerful weapon for Astartes and other individual mechas.

But for ordinary Astra Militarum soldiers, its ammunition is not much different from lumberjack bullets, and its firing rate is even slower in comparison.

Facing the oncoming explosive arrows, the Kriegs did not slow down their charge at all. For them, who were charging in an uninhabited area under the attack of countless heavy lumbering rifles and heavy explosive arrows, this was not a more difficult situation.

As the distance gradually shortened, they quickly took out anti-armor cluster grenades from their waists, and held the monomolecular engineer shovel in their other hands.

This simple multi-functional tool and weapon can always create miracles on a desperate battlefield.

When a Krieg soldier who was closest to the Rubric Warrior was about to throw a grenade at the Rubric Warrior of the Thousand Sons in front, something unexpected happened.

The red-letter warrior flashed and teleported in front of the soldier at lightning speed, even faster than the bullet fired from the bolter in his hand.

The Krieg soldier had no time to react. He just felt his neck tighten and a big hand had already gripped his throat tightly.

Puff. Fresh blood spurted out like a fountain, splashing onto the gorgeous blue ceramic steel armor, instantly dyeing it red.

The soldier's legs fell limply and the grenade in his hand fell into a pool of blood.

brush!
At this moment, an engineer shovel came towards the red-letter soldier with a whistling sound.

The Red Letter Soldier reacted extremely quickly. Almost at the same moment, he reached out and grabbed the soldier's arm that was swinging the shovel, as if he had offered himself to him.

click!
There was a horrifying sound of bone breaking, and the silent armored giant easily broke the arm of the silent mortal who dared to offend it.

The soldier's entire forearm was forcibly twisted off from the middle, and the bloody white bones protruded from the uniform at the elbow. The scene was horrifying.

However, the Krieg soldier whose arm was broken did not give up.

With his other hand, he quickly pulled out a cluster grenade with the fuse already pulled out from behind his back.

The Red Letter Warrior lowered his head slightly, and the moment his eyes swept over the grenade, he immediately threw the Krieg in his hand far away.

But it was too late, the grenade had already slipped out of his hand and fell to the ground.

The grenade was so close to the Red Letter Warrior that even the magic screen in front of it was farther away from it than the grenade.

boom!
With a loud bang, the flames generated by the explosion instantly enveloped the red warrior's shiny blue armor.

The entire suit of armor was suddenly enveloped in flames, and it seemed as if one could hear the soul inside howling in pain as it was burned.

Under the impact of the explosion, which was powerful enough to destroy a Sentinel mecha, the Red Letter Warrior instantly turned into broken armor parts. Soon, sand-like substances poured out from the cracks in the armor and drifted away with the wind.

"The Emperor is watching you from his Golden Throne! Charge! Warriors of the Emperor!"

Sister Arabella stood on the ruins of the broken columns and shouted loudly.

She waved the scepter in her hand, emitting a dazzling holy light forward.

"Protection Oath"

"Shield of Faith"

In an instant, a pale golden one-way shield appeared in front of everyone.

Although this shield is not as strong as the magic screen of the Thousand Sons Warrior, it can at least allow a Hellfire bolt to be miraculously deflected when it is supposed to hit the protected person.

However, for this group of fearless "ants", this was enough for them to break through the scattered lines of red letter warriors between them and the Thousand Sons Wizards.

Clusters of sparks from the explosions rang out one after another, and the sound of ceramic steel armor hitting the walls and the ground became more and more frequent.

With the brief protection of the Shield of Faith, the Kriegs charged tirelessly.

They could often successfully approach a Red Letter Warrior at the cost of a dozen casualties.

When the Red Letter Warrior switched to using the Flash skill for melee attacks, they detonated the grenade and threw it at it without hesitation.

At first, the Red Letter Warrior could still use the teleportation magic of the micro-cracks to flash to other places before the grenade exploded and avoid the damage of the explosion.

But the Kriegers quickly adapted to the situation and came up with a more extreme and effective solution.

——After pulling the fuse, they no longer threw the grenade out, but rushed forward, holding the grenade tightly in their hands, sticking to the Red Letter Soldier like taffy.

In the short period of time from pulling the fuse to the grenade exploding, they were always fighting closely with the Red Letter Warriors, vowing to perish together with them.

This extreme one-for-one fighting style may seem bloody and cruel, but by taking advantage of the narrow terrain, a red-letter warrior can be returned to [Death] at the expense of a dozen mortals. Considering the cruel power comparison between mortals and Astartes, it can be said to be a huge profit.

However, Horatio understood that these Rubric Warriors were unkillable, and like demons, they would be constantly called back to dust by the powerful Thousand Sons wizards and re-sealed into their armor.

Only by killing the wizard behind the scenes can this threat be completely eliminated.
