Warhammer: Black Emperor

Chapter 243 Star God Burner

Ning Lu leaped toward the golden mechanical eagle, intending to kill it before the Star God Fragment was completely freed.

The Primarch donned the "War Mask," leaped onto the back of the golden mechanical eagle, and the Vaal Sword shone with blue and white light, slashing at the base of the right wing.

The powerful punch flashed with golden light and slammed into the back of the golden mechanical eagle.

"Insect!"

"hateful!"

The golden mechanical eagle was still bound, but by manipulating the laws of physics, it made the sound of explosion resound in the Primarch's mind.

The sound echoed in his mind, its aftershocks striking his heart and even spreading to his spirit.

The mind and spirit depend on the physical body for existence, and Nimrod's body was inevitably affected by the physical laws that attacked it.

Within the hurricane-like sound waves lies a power capable of scorching the heavens and destroying the earth.

The Primarch felt as if his body was being engulfed in flames.

He instantly ascended to the second level of mental state, and his physical energy instantly transformed into mental power.

The Primarch's spine burst forth with bright flames as he stepped into "Kundalini," causing his spirit and the ocean of his soul to tremble.

The power of the Star God Fragment was banished from the non-physical realm, but it still resonated within the Primarch's brain.

It was as if firecrackers were popping in the brain of the genomicon.

The excruciating pain did not affect the Primarch's movements; his Power Punch rained down like a storm, and the Vaal Sword slashed down like a windmill.

With a loud bang, the golden disintegration field tore through the living metal, creating a crack on the back of the golden mechanical eagle.

With a sharp, piercing sound, the Vaal Sword cleaved open a gash.

Just as Ning Lu was about to launch another attack, a sharp shriek rang out.

The golden mechanical eagle moved, its wings flapping and creating a towering heatwave.

He exerted force with both feet, and the rock beneath his feet cracked.

The golden mechanical eagle slowly took flight, its pipes crackling and popping, and the space necromancer's equipment flashing a blinding red light.

The Star God Fragment bulged at the neck, and suddenly opened its mouth to spew out a stream of molten flames.

All the equipment was burned to ashes in an instant.

The golden mechanical eagle broke free of its restraints, let out an excited cry, and took flight.

Nimrod said to Freddy, "Pull him into a dream!"

Freddy looked at the golden mechanical eagle and sensed its destructive power from the flames it spewed.

He knew that even he, with a body far superior to that of the Fenris wolf, would be burned to ashes if enveloped in the flames spewed by the golden mechanical eagle.

Freddy knew that to deal with such a powerful creature, he had to enter the form of a mythical being.

Two pairs of legs instantly sprouted from the black wolf's belly, and the surging power lifted its body. Its eight legs tore through the sky, creating ripples.

As the black mist rises, eternal darkness engulfs the golden mechanical eagle.

"The melody of peace ripples softly,
.........

Hum a soothing lullaby.

……

Afraid of stepping on the sleeping butterfly chrysalis in the cradle,
Deep in the folds of eternal night,

Everything is quiet.”

The Star God Fragment's mind went blank for a moment. His fiery red eyes grew darker and darker, and his golden mechanical wings seemed to be being pulled, flapping slower and slower.

Primarch, being in the second layer of Thelma's mind and well-prepared, did not slow down his attacks in the slightest, each strike precisely hitting the wounds he had previously inflicted.

The crack on the back of the golden mechanical eagle grew larger and larger, from the size of a normal person's fist to the size of a head, and then to the size of half a body.

At the base of his golden right wing, the slit stretched from the width of a normal person's palm to the width of a forearm, and then to the width of a thigh.

As Ninglu launched his berserk attack, golden and fiery red flames suddenly erupted.

The black mist evaporated in an instant, and the eight-legged black wolf was charred black all over.

Freddy let out a mournful cry, unable to maintain his mythical creature form, and tumbled to the ground. Nimrod's vision was filled with gold and fiery red as his body was engulfed in flames.

The runes on the black armor hummed, and the Primarch did not slow down its attack.

The blood-red chain wrapped around his right little finger emanated energy, bringing a sense of coolness to his scorching body.

The Primarch, wearing a war mask, launched a frenzied offensive, yet his mind remained calm.

He has been able to confirm that the golden mechanical eagle is a fragment of the Burner, Niyadra Zata.

The flames surrounding the burner are hotter than the core of a star, representing the ultimate manifestation of fire in the physical world.

The mountain peaks exploded, and the rocks were burned to ashes.

The golden mechanical eagle soared higher and higher, and Ninglu, whose body was enveloped in flames, launched attacks without stopping.

The Medusa were astonished to see the dark clouds that had covered the entire planet for thousands of years shine for the third time.

This time, unlike the previous two times, the "sun" was suspended in the sky.

On the surface of Medusa, Phenus Manus, who had just emerged from the ruins, looked up at the sky with his silver-coin-like eyes.

He sensed something within the fireball, and his silver-coin-like eyes instantly liquefied, slowly flowing.

“Golden mechanical eagle!” Manus’s leaden voice rang out, and he instantly thought of Garuda.

The golden mechanical eagle's body is a proportionally enlarged version of Garuda, but its body color is different.

The biggest difference was that the golden mechanical eagle was covered in flames. The Primarch sensed a familiar aura from it. The flames were similar to those of a lava lake, but much more explosive.

"what?"

"He found the ruins of Garuda?" Gabriel Santo exclaimed in surprise.

"He found it, but he also put himself in danger."

Santo could detect a complex emotion in Gorgon's leaden voice.

"That flame is more dangerous than the lava lake that killed Asinos."

"Even I might not have survived."

Even if they escape, they will be seriously injured.

Upon hearing this, Santo couldn't help but think of how he had once introduced a ten-meter-tall ancient mechanical monster into the lava lake.

The powerful mechanical monster vanished from this world in the blink of an eye, as if it had never existed.

"His armor was melted by the flames, even though it was made by a skilled craftsman."

At the same moment, atop the black mountain peak, Alpharis exclaimed in surprise.

"Is Ninglu inside?"

"Father, only you can help him."

Golden light shone in the eyes of the Lord of Humanity.

“Ninglu is not injured yet, and I want to know how much he can do.”

"The mechanical eagle has not yet recovered its full strength and is severely injured. If Ninglu can kill it, he will gain immense power."

"It might be even more powerful than Manus's Iron Hand."

The Emperor thought to himself: [The Void Dragon only has one hundred fragments, and his fragments are stronger than most Star Gods.]

Manus only obtained a portion of the power; this fragment of the Burner... is enormous!
He's only slightly weaker than the largest Void Dragon fragment I subdued years ago! If he recovers his full power, Ninglu will have no chance!
But he has not yet recovered. If Ninglu gains great power, I will give him the Spear of Dionysus!
As the emperor pondered, his golden eyes remained fixed on the blazing fireball in the sky.

His eyes narrowed; Ning Lu was injured.

Most of his hair was burned away, flames erupted from his body, and his hind legs were scorched.

Ninglu indeed felt he was nearing his limit as the golden mechanical eagle carried him into the air.

To avoid being exposed, he could not use magical items such as rings and could only rely on the regenerative abilities of the crimson chain.

His armor was burned by the Burner's flames, further depleting his resources.

[I cannot retreat back to the "Land of Chaos," for that would expose my greatest trump card.]
