Warhammer 40: Starting as a Rogue Trader

Chapter 118 Skarbrand

"I want to join too!" Asbais's excited voice sounded beside him.

She felt her own death. If she didn't receive treatment, she would be dead. The feeling of being so close to death changed her mentality... She actually thought this was a great opportunity to become a martyr and serve the God-Emperor.

She was indeed the ruler of a dynasty of wandering merchants, but after witnessing Gao Yi's strength with her own eyes, an obsession formed in her heart.

Most of the living saints in the empire sacrificed their lives. If she did the same and used her life to accomplish the great feat of purifying a planet, perhaps she could also gain the favor of the God-Emperor.

She also wanted to return to the empire with a stronger body, just like Gao Yi, with more powerful strength.

Only in this way can she purify more evil spirits for the God-Emperor!

She stared at Gao Yi, her eyes full of desire. She hated why she was not the one to become a living saint.

The prerequisite for martyrdom is that Gao Yi's medical soldier must heal her first.

After seeing what the two said, Gao Yi agreed to their request after a brief thought. Looking at the current situation of the planet, it was no longer worth occupying.

Under the influence of the power of the warp, the entire planet can no longer be completely purified. There are only two things they can do: stop the sacrificial ceremony and minimize the impact of the warp on the laws of physics to avoid it becoming a complete demon planet.

The planet was then completely destroyed to prevent it from becoming a bridge connecting the subspace to the physical world.

Gao Yi might be able to solve the ritual, but he doesn't have the ability to destroy the entire planet.

With treatment, Sivir and Asbais recovered from their injuries, and even their power armor was restored to its original state.

"My Inquisitor was once lurking on this planet. I have obtained some information about the huge void shield and know its approximate location!"

"I will send some troops to assist you there."

When Gao Yi said this, he also meant that the soldiers accompanying Xiweier and others might also die, but these were necessary sacrifices.

These soldiers will assist the Empire and the remnants of the Kurda Dynasty in breaking through to the location of the void shield generator.

Gao Yi began to arrange for Pavian and his priests to find the technology center of the Winsterkel Dynasty and plunder the dynasty's technological reserves as much as possible.

The most important thing is the huge dock in the void. The traitors led by Walten did not destroy it, perhaps because he was also waiting for the planet to be transformed and using this dock to build warships belonging to Chaos.

If he uses it to trade with those black oil guys, maybe he can attract a lot of traitors to follow him, and then he will have the ability to manufacture his own demon engines and warships.

But now these technologies are cheap to Gao Yi.

The team began to act separately, and Sivir began to head towards the lower nest, where there was an elevator leading to the underground shield generator. Most of the auxiliary troops sent by Gao Yi were soldiers who had jumped from the interstellar space. Gao Yi could also observe the progress of Sivir and others through their perspective.

In case this guy suddenly overloads the engine, Gao Yi will have time to evacuate in advance.

Gao Yi also led his army to continue advancing towards Gorigos' palace.

Whether on the ground or in the air, Gao Yi's troops crushed all enemies with absolute superiority.

Even if a vampire rushed in front of the team, the soldiers in combat uniforms would use their chainsaw swords to tell him what the hymn of courage of mankind is.

The flames of the fire bats also have an excellent effect on these non-material beings, and the battle line is advancing every minute.

However, unusual changes were also occurring near the Skull Jingguan.

The palace was shaking constantly, and a large amount of rubble was falling from above. The magnificent dome had already cracked under the bombing, and it looked like the building would collapse completely soon.

But Walton no longer had the energy to care about these things, he covered his arms tightly.

His face was also distorted due to pain.

He looked at his arms. His flesh and blood were constantly deforming, and the deformed flesh and blood had completely torn through the armor he was originally wearing.

Walton never imagined that the gift of power would come at such a high price.

The guards who followed him had completely turned into flesh and blood monsters and chaos eggs.

Because their bodies could not withstand the power injected by the evil god, they were completely transformed into irrational monsters. They would attack any living person, and their lifespan was only a few hours.

Then the body will completely disintegrate. And Walten is also transforming into a Chaos Egg.

The power he had been pursuing became his death warrant.

"Great Blood God... Enough! I no longer need power! It's really enough!"

Walton squeezed out a few words between his teeth.

But the transformation is still continuing, with no signs of interruption.

All this was not caused by Khorne's deliberate act, but the fact that the Jingguan had turned into a subspace portal.

The sound of war horns was heard from inside the gate, as if it was connected to the gate of Khorne Realm, and Khorne demons were already impatient to come to the real universe.

One by one, stronger and more powerful blood reapers walked out of the portal.

They are all bloodletters who have proved their existence to Khorne. Only after sacrificing enough qualified skulls will Khorne inject more power into them.

And their combat effectiveness is enough to match that of the non-commissioned officers in the Astartes Chapter.

But the terrifying creatures that came out of the door were not only these blood-letting vampires. More blood-letting vampires and even the knight riding a bronze bull, the Blood-Grinding Knight, came here.

These are not scattered demons, this is a fucking army of Khorne demons!
The bravery of Gao Yi's soldiers attracted the attention of more demons.

That's not all.

An irrational roar filled with eternal rage came from the other side of the door.

The overwhelming anger even made these bloodletters retreat to the sides.

With this roar, Walten could no longer control his mind and completely turned into a chaos egg.

Bloody hands clutching two battle axes were the first to emerge from the warp gate.

Then an extremely huge bloodthirsty demon actually came to this planet through the subspace gate.

If Gao Yi was there, he would be able to recognize the identity of this demon at once.

Skarbrand?
The face revealed a skull, the demon's horns were missing, and the red flesh wings behind it were in tatters.

The broken body was even fixed with brass metal.

The twin axes in his hands, "Slaughter" and "Murder", sealed the souls of the two bloodthirsty demons he defeated.

Skarbrand, who was once bewitched by Tzeentch, attacked Khorne, and finally had his own will wiped out.

And his broken body was caused by Khorne's hammering.

After having his consciousness wiped out by Khorne again, Skarbrand became more loyal than ever, but his brain was still not working well.

No longer will he be deceived by any words, he will simply spill blood on the world for Khorne.

He appeared in various worlds, as if to make up for the mistakes he had made, and continued to conquer the worlds for Khorne.

And this time he came to this remote expanded world.

He sensed the battles here, the countless killings and powerful warriors made him eager to try.

And the Blood God also told him that there were some interesting warriors here.

And these targets of interest were Gao Yi and his Night Guards, as well as the Astartes.

The moment Skarbrand appeared, Gao Yi felt his presence.

"This... the reaction of the subspace energy... is too outrageous?"
