Warhammer 40: Starting as a Rogue Trader

Chapter 70 Chapter 68 The Hunt Begins

The troops began to assemble secretly. Except for the participants and a few people who knew the inside story through genetic testing, almost no one knew that Gao Yi had assembled such a force.

Gao Yi was not sure whether there were still those cunning undercover agents in his dynasty, and he did not want any news to leak out.

The 50 best warriors were all equipped with adamantium combat uniforms, and the rest were all equipped with ceramite combat uniforms.

Gao Yi knew that the cunning chief must have very strong psychic powers, and his individual strength must surpass that of an ordinary Astartes.

Gao Yi found that apart from himself, he couldn't find any other strong individual who could hold up the show... Although Norris's physical injuries had recovered, the erosion of his spiritual energy had not yet healed, so he was useless for the time being.

He just happened to be extremely weak in spiritual energy, and his physical stats were even more exaggerated. Even though everyone around him tried to stop him, Gao Yi still chose to join the beheading team.

At this time, outside the sewage area, the high priest of the Death Worship Cult and his followers were waiting for Gao Yi's arrival.

The high priest did not expect that Gao Yi, a wandering merchant, would personally join in this beheading operation.

"Are you going to the Bottom Nest too?"

"I'm a living saint! Don't underestimate me!"

Gao Yi also discovered that the high priest who had been sitting in a wheelchair had stood up.

A mechanical prosthesis replaced his mutilated body.

"But you, at your age and with a disability, are you sure you can still fight?"

"I have never slacked off in my skills. Even now, I can still offer death to the Immortal God Emperor. The death that has never been bestowed will this time be bestowed upon the alien!"

A total of more than 2000 soldiers from both sides will go through the secret passage provided by the high priest to reach the hearts of those cunning people. The Death Worship Cult has almost pulled out all the believers who can fight.

The team was accompanied by more than a thousand widow mines. Gao Yi had a hunch that the effect of these widow mines might be greater than that of all the soldiers combined.

"Come with me, the passage is in the sewage area!"

As this team entered, Will, who was responsible for coordinating the frontal attack, also issued the order to attack.

They don't need to go too deep into the bottom nest, they just need to make enough noise to make the cunning people in the bottom nest think that the front is the main force of the attack, so as to attract the enemy and share the pressure for the decapitation team.

The attack on the bottom nest has begun.

After teams of Dynasty soldiers entered the passage, they were immediately counterattacked by the cunning villains before they had gone far enough.

Will was horrified by the resistance of millions of cunning people, all determined to die.

The weapons secretly accumulated over the past hundred years have given this group of cunning men firepower far beyond imagination.

In addition, their familiarity with the environment allows them to launch attacks from unexpected places.

Weil was a little glad that Gao Yi did not choose to attack by force.

Otherwise, we will really be caught in the vast ocean of people's war.

"Master! Those who defiled the Four-Armed Divine Emperor have launched an attack!"

The cunning leader Vianna calmly commanded countless cunning followers to fight back.

All the accumulated weapons were distributed.

Surrounded by a group of preachers, she expressed her faith in the Four-Armed Emperor.

She used her psychic powers to project mental bewitchment onto the cunning believers around her.

Under the influence of this psychic power, the Dynasty soldiers who were attacking the Underhive in their eyes turned into blasphemous mutants trying to destroy the God-Emperor.

And those pure-blooded chicken thieves became the great angels of death of the Four-Armed Emperor.

Everything they saw was false. Watching wave after wave of fanatical believers armed with weapons rushing forward to stop the dynasty's attack, Vianna's heart was not as calm as her face.

From the beginning of the Chaos Heresy, things have been spiraling out of control.

The emergence of Chaos caused the sect to lose a large number of believers, which directly led to the slowdown in the progress of lighting the psychic beacon.

Delaying the arrival of the day of ascension is the most unacceptable thing.

But when the chaos was resolved, the sect thought it could develop with peace of mind.

The lower nest, the upper nest, a large number of fifth-generation chicken thieves have almost lost contact again, and the news and supplies that should have been passed down have all disappeared without a trace.

The wandering merchant seemed to know their sect very well, and launched an attack on the bottom nest without even taking a break.

When she ordered some cunning believers to try to go around through other secret passages to attack the rear of the dynasty, she discovered that there were soldiers guarding those unknown passages. Once they left and reached Xiachao, that would be Gao Yi's home ground.

Various combat uniforms and siege tanks in siege mode will let these cunning guys know that under absolute firepower, all beings are equal.

Any chicken thief who comes out of the bottom nest will be devastated.

This also made Vianna truly realize the advantages brought by the equipment. Although the enemy was small in number, his huge number of believers could only fight in the bottom nest. Any attempt at a counterattack would come to an abrupt end once they left the bottom nest.

While the cunning believers were engaged in a tug-of-war with Gao Yi's soldiers, the beheading team had already entered the dark underground city of Dichao through the secret passage.

The high priest walked at the front of the team, and his blind eyes seemed to be able to see in the dark as he led the team forward.

He was sensing the mark of death left on the body of the thief leader.

There are countless forks and corners, and the high priest can make a choice without hesitation every time.

Suddenly the high priest stopped, touched the metal plate under his feet, turned around and said to Gao Yi.

"This is the deepest point we can reach. There are no accessible passages around the alien. If we want to reach its lair, we can only kill it."

As he spoke, the high priest took out a dagger and a long sword, held them tightly in his hands, and knelt on his knees to pray.

The Death Worshipers around them, who were wearing the same equipment and attire, were also doing the same thing.

A simple cloth garment and the sharp blades in their hands were all their equipment. Gao Yi and the high priest said they could provide them with combat uniforms, but they were rejected.

Although combat uniforms are practical, they are contrary to their fighting style. Dying in battle is also a blessing for these guys who worship death.

"We watch in the shadows, we will awaken in blood!

We are the sharp blades of the Immortal Emperor, flesh and blood are our shackles, and only death is the sacrifice.

May the Immortal Emperor grant us the power of slaughter to terrify our enemies.

Oh, Immortal God Emperor, please accept the cries of these blasphemers as a hymn of praise.

We will write your holy name today in the blood of heretics.

We have dedicated ourselves to death, until the end of time!"

The prayers in unison even formed an echo in this enclosed space.

After the prayers were finished, these Death Cult assassins cut their palms with their daggers.

Blood flowed down his palm, and Gao Yi felt pain just watching it, but this group of believers of the Death Cult seemed to be fine.

"The hunt begins!"
