Warhammer: Lord of the Endless Monsters

Chapter 595 Mechanical Ultra Warriors, Crushing the Space Necromancers

This planet is safe, and this imperial shrine world is free from the threat of space dead. However, this does not mean that the war is over. An even greater threat still looms over the human empire!

The Necromancers of space are now waging a full-scale war against the human empire. They show no mercy and have no reason to act; their only goal is to destroy humanity.

"Lord Rhodes, the Silent King has now announced that all the emperors of all dynasties will be mobilized to launch a full-scale attack on the Human Empire and completely wipe it out," said the virtual image of Asanesai, kneeling on the ground.

The Necromancers are now taking the Human Empire seriously. The technologies the Human Empire has introduced, especially the faster-than-light engine, pose a significant threat to the Necromancer dynasty.

Moreover, the Silent King needs a war to defend his position, and now the Storm King has begun to rebel.

Many of the awakened Necromancers of the Space Necromancer Dynasty, including the High Priests and Necromancer Overlords, did not choose to join the Silent King's side, but instead chose to follow the Storm King.

"Does he have that ability? What's the situation with Storm King right now?" Rhodes asked.

The Silent King really shot himself in the foot; when he left the Milky Way, he deactivated the master control protocol of the Space Necromancers!

Having restored freedom to his people, the Silent King at that time probably thought he would never return to the Milky Way again.

He wanted to exile himself because he understood that by agreeing to the demands of those new cosmic gods to betray his people, he had already become a traitor to his nation.

But we don't know what this guy encountered during his 6000 years outside the Milky Way, which is why he rushed back in such a hurry!
Or rather, they were scared away by something terrifying!
"Lord Rhodes! The Storm King is actively courting all the forces he can, and has even sent an envoy to my side. How should I respond?" Asanesai asked.

"You promised Storm King that you would join his ranks and made it clear that you were dissatisfied with everything about Silent King, but you will not join his ranks now!"

"Tell Storm King that you're staying by Silent King's side as a spy, and that you're trying to win over some of the Archons or Overlords around Silent King," Rhodes said.

Since the Silent King has chosen to wage war against humanity, the Storm King can be used to restrain him.

“Understood, Lord Rhodes. I will obey your orders and reply to the Storm King,” Asanesai said.

"Now that you've been resurrected and even regained your former body, could you find a way to recruit a group of space undead members to join our team?" Rhodes asked.

“Of course, great master. In fact, I have already made contact with several patriarchs and more than a dozen space necromancer overlords. Now I am just waiting for your order to confront them,” Asanesai said.

The reason she was able to become the Empress of her dynasty was precisely because of this resurrection method. After acquiring cosmic beasts, she has resurrected some of the overlords within the dynasty and successfully brought them into her camp.

“Very good, I will give you all the authority. Just do your best. Now I have one more question. Have you found what I asked you to find?” Rhodes asked.

The most powerful weapon in the hands of the Space Necromancer is called the Brilliant Star Chart. It is the most dangerous weapon. With this weapon, the Space Necromancer can even detonate all the stars in the Milky Way in an instant!

To completely defeat the Space Necromancers, this Brilliant Star Map must be obtained.

"Lord Rhodes, I have already learned about the dynasty that holds the Brilliant Star Chart. I will go and try to make contact. I believe they cannot refuse the price of resurrection," Asanesai said.

“Well done. I need you to hand over this weapon to me as soon as possible. We absolutely cannot let it fall into the hands of the Silent King.”

"Your task is very simple: corrupt the Necromancer Dynasty within the Space. Recruit as many people as you can, ideally even sidelining the King of Tranquility. Even after you join the Storm's Domain, you can still find ways to recruit talent and expand your forces. I will provide you with all the venting cosmic beasts you need; if that's not enough, I'll allocate a few more," Rhodes said.

Every patriarch of the Necromancer dynasty, and even some powerful overlords, had Star God fragments under their command!
So if Rhodes wanted, he could send his cosmic beasts over there, let them absorb the Star God fragments, and then revive these space undead.

“Lord Rhodes! I understand. Do you need me to help you contain the war on your side?” Asanesai asked.

“I can handle things on my end. Your task now is to quickly convert the interior of the Space Necromancer. While I and the Human Empire are distracting the Silent King, you need to develop and strengthen your own power,” Rhodes said.

“I understand, Lord Rhodes. Is there anything else you wish to instruct me to do?” Asanesai nodded and asked.

"I have nothing more to tell you, you can go now! You need to cooperate well with the new recruit 882."

"I will lead the human empire at the front to draw the attention of the main force of the space undead, while you turn them into monsters from the rear," Rhodes said.

Nodding to Rhodes, Asanesai's virtual image disappeared.

“Rhodes, the situation is still very delicate. Haven’t you considered bringing in some other Primarchs’ forces to participate in the war?” Elena walked over and asked.

"Don't worry, darling, nothing will go wrong. Don't forget, this time we have four Primarchs participating in the war. Our family has four Primarchs, which is four legions."

"And those battle nuns under your command can unleash even greater power," Rhodes said.

On the battlefield of the Exorcising Dead Zone, the most suitable force to contend with the space undead army is the combat nun team.

In the dark void, the fleet of the human empire and the Tomb World Legion of the space undead engaged in an unprecedented decisive battle.

A starfield shrouded in black stone obelisks, where the power of the warp is utterly suppressed, psykers are strangled, and the Empire's most powerful think tanks are reduced to mortals.

However, this still could not withstand the power of humanity. The arrival of Rhodes' gene allowed the Space Marine force in this region to expand to about 60. In addition, there was a combat nun force of nearly one million. All of these combat nuns had received special enhancements and were much more powerful than the original Space Marines.

Once these battle nuns are deployed to the battlefield, they pose a significant threat to the space undead, as the Imperial Light generated by their prayers can perfectly counter the space undead's necromantic barrier.

"All fleets, enter battle formation." Rhodes' voice was like an anvil in a forge, heavy and unyielding.

"Emperor's Wrath-class battleship, main guns charging."

"The Void Fortress of the Cult of Mechanism, deploy your antimatter shield."

"Martyr fleet of the Battle Sisters, prepare to attack." Order after order was relayed. With Rhodes in command, the entire Imperial army seemed to have found its backbone.

The human empire, this colossal war machine, began to operate at full capacity. Although the Necromancers of Space suppressed warp travel, humans could still travel faster than light in this region.

It's not just you space skeletons who have the ability to travel faster than light now. The human empire also has a large number of faster-than-light engines deployed in its forces, and all its ships are equipped with faster-than-light engines.

The fleet of space necromancers gave no warning; they simply slaughtered.

The Sotek dynasty's tomb ship unleashed a Gaussian disintegration beam; the green energy beam swept across the Imperial warship, disintegrating metal, flesh, and soul—everything—at the atomic level, turning into nothingness.

The human fleet was radiating immense light, and the Pedanium rays were relentlessly bombarding the space undead forces. In terms of weaponry, the human empire was not far behind.

At least in terms of basic weapons, both sides are evenly matched – you can kill me, and I can kill you.

"Report! The Vengeance Soul has been dismantled! The entire ship has evaporated!"

"Iron Fury's Void Shield has decreased to 47%!"

Rhodes gave a cold laugh and issued his order.

"Activate the final protective energy shield of the interstellar fortress, and also fully activate the Void Shield, then retaliate with the Pedanium Cannons."

"For the Emperor! For Lord Rhodes! For the Space Garrison!"

The Space Marines, clad in Terminator armor, charged forward despite the pressure from the Black Stone Obelisk, their bomb guns roaring and their plasma cannons burning molten craters into the living metal of the Necromancers.

As the Space Marines advanced, the Imperial fleet unleashed a torrent of steel, macrocannon arrays roaring deafeningly, light spears slicing through the void, and Pedanium rays unleashing beams of death, all pouring towards the Undead fleet.

"We need more firepower!" a company commander roared.

"Received. Immediately provide heavy firepower coverage, and deploy King Joe, Titans, and Ultra Knight mechs," a Space Marine communications officer reported.

Ultraman mechs range from 10m tall models used by ordinary mortals to 15m tall mechs used by Space Marines, which are even more powerful than the Fear Knight.

On Rod's side, he even released his fully-formed, 50-meter-tall mechanical Ultra Brothers. These were true 1:1 replicas of Ultra Warriors, monsters capable of surviving and flying freely in space and using terrifying beams.

Their fighting power is a 1:1 replica of Ultraman's. Once these warriors are deployed to the space battlefield, they will deal a devastating blow to the space undead.

Rhodes' initial versions, Mecha Taro, Mecha Ace, Mecha Zoffy, Mecha Jack, and Mecha Seven, were deployed to the battlefield.

The Strium Ray, the Specium Ray, the Emerium Ray, and the Metalim Ray transformed into spectacular cosmic phenomena, bombarding the army of space undead.

The attacks of these mechanical Ultra Warriors were completely incomprehensible to these space undead. What kind of monsters were they?
The arrival of the mechanical Ultra Warriors completely changed the course of the battlefield.

"M78 Ray—Full Firing!"

Mechanical Zoffy crossed his arms, and a torrent of Specium Rays swept across the array of Necromancer tomb ships in space. Living metal disintegrated and evaporated under the impact of ultra-high-energy particles. A Sotek Dynasty Destroyer mothership attempted to resist with its inertial damping field, but was pierced through the core within three seconds, turning into a dazzling burst of space fireworks.

Mecha Taro leaped into the enemy ranks, unleashing a fan-shaped burst of Strium Rays that instantly wiped out the necromancer fighters within a radius of thousands of kilometers. His Ultra Fist slammed into the bridge of a tomb ship, the living metal shattering like fragile pottery, and the entire warship disintegrated in a chain reaction of explosions.

"What...what are these things?!" The data consciousness of a necromancer overlord fluctuated violently. It had never found such terrifying combat units in the galactic database.

What exactly are these mechanical constructs? The technology they possess is something the Necromancers of space have never seen before, and even the tomb engineers couldn't understand how these creatures were operated until their deaths.

This is completely different from being powered by the Star God's energy; it is a much more powerful Titan weapon.

"Analysis failed... Energy level surpasses Star God Fragment... Immediate retreat recommended!" The logic circuit of another necromancer almost collapsed.

However, the Necromancers in space have no concept of "fear" and no reason to retreat.

They will only ruthlessly execute the annihilation pact. The Silent King's command is paramount—humanity must perish!
"Initiate the Stellar Collapse Protocol, target locked on the human main fleet." A Sotec Ark ship hidden on the edge of the battlefield released eerie green energy ripples. It was a secondary replica of the Brilliant Star Chart—the "Starburner," capable of briefly distorting the gravitational constant of local space to create artificial black holes.

"Gravity distortion detected! Lord Rhodes, the enemy is creating a spatial collapse!" The mechanical priest on the bridge frantically pounded on the data tablet.

Rhodes sneered, "Ha, a mere trick." With a wave of his hand, the Ultra Eye of Mechanical Ace suddenly lit up.

"Fivefold light of the universe!"

This skill is currently the most powerful move that the mechanical Ultra Warriors can use. There was also a Cosmic Miracle Ray, but that requires the original Ultraman Taro to use. And on their side, only Mechanical Ace has reached its final form.

Therefore, the only way to absorb the power of the other Ultra Brothers is to use the Ultra Hole on Mechanical Ace's head to unleash the Cosmic Fivefold Ray.

Five beams of colored light intertwined to form a net, which actually managed to hold back the event horizon of the forming black hole.

Mechanical Seven then threw out his head-mounted dart, and the faster-than-light spinning blade cleaved the black stone core of the Sotek Ark in two. As the core overloaded, the Burning Star Device collapsed in reverse, devouring the Ark itself.

The fleet of the Space Necromancers was destroyed by the Human Empire. Rod's mechanical Ultra Warriors were dispatched in droves, with the six Ultra Brothers as a single combat unit.

They began a near-devastating attack on the space undead, and for the first time, these space skeletons felt technologically outmatched.
