Warhammer 40: Starting as a Rogue Trader

Chapter 71 Widow Lei Hai
Gao Yi's soldiers also checked their weapons, and then placed the explosives at the location designated by the high priest.

Gao Yi closed his eyes and released his psychic perception. Sure enough, he could sense a large number of life signals not far from the metal plate under their feet.

"Everyone, no more fighting! Our only goal here is to kill that cunning clan leader! For the Divine Emperor, for the Monget Dynasty! One last check of our weapons!"

Gao Yi reminded everyone.

The soldiers began placing the explosives at the location designated by the high priest.

"3, 2, 1, detonate!"

The melta bomb released terrifying heat energy, instantly melting dozens of large holes on the metal plates under everyone's feet, large enough for several people to pass through. Looking down through the holes, they saw a group of confused and cunning believers. They didn't expect that this was actually a weapons warehouse for these cunning believers!
Many thieves who haven't received weapons yet are gathered here waiting for the weapons to be distributed.

The cunning believers looked at the huge black hole above their heads, not knowing what was happening. But the next second, countless black-clothed Death Worshipping assassins jumped down and silently began to slaughter the cunning believers in front of them who had not yet obtained weapons.

Every swing was fatal. Gao Yi marveled at the speed of these Death Worshipers. When he and his soldiers began to jump down, he saw only corpses all over the ground. The flowing blood seemed to have formed a pool on the ground, and the Death Worshipers assassins were already covered in blood.

Smiles of enjoying death appeared on their faces, and they continued killing along the passage.

These assassins who went to various places to kill the Death Cult have become abandoned pawns. They were there to attract other cunning people, and they also gladly accepted their own death.

The high priest was waiting for Gao Yi with a group of the most elite assassins of the Death Worship Cult.

"We must move quickly, those aliens will soon discover us!"

Seeing the high priest leading the way, Gao Yi immediately followed. Before leaving, Gao Yi also ordered people to blow up the weapons warehouse.

Gao Yi did leave with his soldiers, but along the route they left, widow mines began to fly along the passage in all directions, and then dug up the ground and buried them.

Such a big commotion immediately attracted the attention of the thieves.

More and more cunning believers began to rush towards the breakthrough point, and Vianna, the cunning bishop, also got the news first.

"What?! Enemies broke into the warehouse? How is that possible?! We've already stopped those heretics outside! How did they get in?"

When she heard that the intruders were the Death Cult assassins, unspeakable anger ignited in her heart. Just as the high priest said, the battle between the Death Cult assassins and the chicken thieves had lasted for a hundred years.

For the Genestealer sect, countless outstanding believers and pawns planted in the dynasty were killed by this group of lunatics. Sometimes they would sneak into the base nest in ways unknown to the chicken thieves, and they even dared to assassinate their great patriarch!
Unforgivable! Ji Zei has also been fighting against the assassins of the Death Worship Cult for so many years, and he also has a certain understanding of the Death Worship Cult, that is, their number is very small!

Vianna knew that the small population of the Death Cult could not shake the foundation of the sect, and their only possible target was their patriarch!

Vianna no longer cared about commanding the believers, but instead pulled back a large number of cunning people who should have been transferred to the front line.

The existence of the cunning Patriarch is the foundation of the entire Genestealer sect. Once they lose the Patriarch, they also lose the opportunity to light up the psychic beacon and summon the Tyranid tentacles.

Countless cunning believers revealed their craziest side and rushed towards Gao Yi and others.

As the high priest led the crowd deeper, the enemies before them became stronger and stronger.

The new blood chicken thieves of ordinary humans disappeared, and were replaced by hybrids with multiple arms.

From time to time, in the darkness high up, killers would even shoot at them with modified high-powered laser guns.

However, the infrared detection system in the combat suit can accurately identify the killer in hiding. Once discovered, dozens of C-14s will concentrate their fire and destroy him along with his hiding place.

The main force of the attack changed from the Death Cult to the Rangers, and their killing efficiency was even faster. The Rangers had clear division of labor, some were responsible for fire support, and some were responsible for close combat.

Especially surrounding Gao Yi were the elite Dynasty soldiers in their adamantine combat uniforms, holding blast shields in one hand and chainswords in the other, standing at the forefront. Clever weapons couldn't penetrate their defenses, and even a strike from their blast shields was enough to kill their opponents. With the various enhancements and the blessing of their combat uniforms, their combat effectiveness more than doubled. They didn't even have to worry about injuries or damage to their combat uniforms, as ten medics provided them with care.

Together with Gao Yi, they formed the sharpest spearhead.

"Boom~"

Explosions continued to be heard from behind the team. After Gao Yi knocked a thief away with a punch, he also heard the sound. He knew that some unlucky guy was about to step on his widow mine.

The high priest couldn't help but look back. He thought they would be attacked from the front and back, but they had already advanced a long distance and didn't see any enemies behind them.

He also guessed that it was the mechanical creations brought by Gao Yi that were at work.

Vianna's face was extremely ugly, and those assassins of the Death Cult were still creating chaos.

The cunning army chasing Gao Yi and others was blocked by countless widow mines.

Every few dozen meters there is a widow mine waiting for the thief to rush into its attack range.

The invisible state can only make the cunning believers continue to explore the way with their lives.

It wouldn't matter if some thieves were killed, but the large number of explosions even collapsed the passage and blocked the way.

Moreover, the external armor of these widow mines is very strong and not so easy to destroy.

Hundreds of widow mines turned into a sea of ​​widow mines to stop all the pursuers for Gao Yi, buying precious time while allowing the team to continue their attacks without any worries.

The remaining Widow Mines also became pathfinders. For the thieves you meet on the road, the Widow Mines said, "So what if you see me? I'll bury myself in front of you. If you can't dismantle me in the first place, you'll be bombed!"
There are no more enemies ahead.

"High Priest! How far is it!"

"I sensed it! It's right in front!" the high priest said excitedly. The death that should have come more than ten years ago was now in front of him.

"With this death, I honor the God-Emperor. With this blood, I establish his sacrament. I hold this blade and bless you!"

However, when Gao Yi's soldiers followed the assassins of the Death Worship Cult and rushed out of the end of the passage and arrived at the palace of the thief clan leader, a pair of scarlet eyes were looking at them from above their heads.

Gao Yi also spotted this group of monsters. He realized his psychic perception hadn't detected them. Was his perception being negated by the other party's psychic energy?! The one responsible for all this was the cunning tribe leader. The psychic network formed by millions of cunning followers had allowed this cunning tribe leader's psychic power to reach a terrifying level.

Dozens of pure-blooded chicken thieves were lying on the pipes above their heads waiting for their arrival.

The moment the Death Cult assassins entered the hall, the pure-blooded chicken thieves jumped down.

Compared with the Death Cult and this group of aliens, these pure-blooded chicken thieves are truly born killers. Their chitinous blades can even cut off the weapons in the hands of the Death Cult assassins.

The massacre happened in an instant. One by one, the Death Cult assassins were knocked down and torn to pieces, and more special and cunning believers had been waiting for their arrival here.

Powerful chicken thief guards, the Holy Judge, the huge distortion master, a large number of first and second generation chicken thieves, and the chicken thief patriarch himself.

In his eyes, even if the believers outside could not stop this team, he himself had enough strength to keep them all here, and the dead chickens outside made him feel no psychological fluctuations at all.

"For the day of ascension, for the Great Devourer!! You guys are the ones who want to kill me?!"

The thief leader roared, and all the thieves charged forward. He also stepped down from his throne, and with a height of nearly five meters, he looked like a towering giant.
