Warhammer 40: Doom

Chapter 202 The Tipping Point

The Imperial Guard is silent; they are the ultimate beings created by the Emperor himself, stripped of superfluous emotions, focused more on the present, and better serving their human sovereign.

Their charge was silent and swift; the Imperial Guards, on a psychological level, would instinctively cooperate with their comrades.

Coincidentally, Doom remained silent as well.

Having endured countless years or even longer of spiritual trials, their hearts are weathered and they have grown accustomed to the indifference of solitude.

In terms of coordination, Doomsday Warriors do not require special notification via mind link; tested warriors possess a closer telepathic connection.

Black and gold, equally tall warriors, silently charged through the gate and into the vast ecological space.

A ribbon-like city, over a hundred kilometers wide and seemingly endless in depth, suddenly came into view of the superhuman warriors.

Several miniature artificial suns float high in the sky, the glass dome mimics blue sky and white clouds, and the sides are a sci-fi scene of interwoven steel.

The ground is planted with various unique trees, and blue, white and purple flowers are mixed together. A sparkling, clear ecological river flows longitudinally through the entire eco-city.

Such a scene should have been harmonious and beautiful, a place of peace amidst the battle-torn moon.

In front of the current eco-city, a large number of alien warriors have gathered, operating various anti-aircraft weapons, creating a tense atmosphere of readiness.

Human intruders have shattered the harmony, and they are charging in with overwhelming force.

"Fire! Shoot them down." The Overlord of Ran Dan remained silent, his command sword pointing towards the high gate, his mental energy sweeping across the entire area.

Various slave races: humans, aliens, a mixed army of slaves, all subject to its spiritual will.

"Spread out and draw away the alien's anti-aircraft fire, then regroup at the marked location."

Odysseus's communication was brief and direct. He ignited his jetpack and launched himself forward like an arrow.

Behind him, the Imperial Guard soldiers who rushed into the breach in the gate immediately dispersed above the eco-city, following the actions of the Shield Guard Company Commander.

The Imperial Guard knew their mission and provided sufficient cover for the Destroyer's task.

The flight backpack propels the force beyond its limits, the Imperial Guard breaks the sound barrier, and the bio-enhanced joints and shield cushioning system work together to resist the deadly inertia.

Behind them, Randan's anti-aircraft fire was dense and deadly, with physical shells and energy weapons shattering the sky.

Crackle—the sky shattered, sonic booms roared, and a golden figure pierced through the barrage of comments.

The Imperial Guard's biological computers, refined through bio-alchemy, are comparable to sophisticated biological computers.

They navigated through the barrage of bullets, their superhuman bodies repeatedly pausing and accelerating to withstand the rapidly rising and falling G-forces.

With nanosecond-level reaction speed and superior physical capabilities, the Imperial Guard is more agile than ultra-high-speed fighter jets.

"Doom Soldier, enter!" Captain Odysseus took a tenth of a second to call his mission comrades into action during the most intense barrage of bullets.

His grasp of timing is amazing.

The dense anti-aircraft fire, held back by sixty Imperial Guards, was no longer a deadly threat.

The Doom Slayer immediately entered the gate, carrying his demonic weapon, and continued his advance under the cover of the Imperial Guard.

The sky was in complete chaos, and Ran Dan's interceptor fighters became a burden.

The Imperial Guards demonstrated flying skills by using the flexibility of flight packs to attach them to the belly or back of fighter jets, forcing automatic fire to cease.

As the aircraft pursued him, he pulled up his backpack and turned around instantly, firing the explosives mounted on his guard spear and killing the pilot.

Its flight path was winding and meandering, tearing out a brutal arc in the barrage of bullets.

bang~ bang~ bang~
Several distinct sounds rang out, familiar to the Imperial Guards; they were the unique sounds of Yaojin being hit.

The firepower was like a reverse waterfall; several anti-aircraft shells exploded, and a dense barrage of projectiles tore through and enveloped the Imperial Guards.

As the dimensional shield flickered, the personal shields of the Imperial Guards instantly overloaded, and the wings of their flight backpacks were shattered.

Randan's morale soared, and for the first time, the human forces that entered the battle on the moon suffered casualties.

The Imperial Guards fell from a height of over a thousand meters above the ground; even those in Radiant Gold armor would surely perish.

Gravity will make every high flyer pay a price.

"Without the power backpack, I will withdraw from this mission." The Imperial Guard confirmed in the communications that the teleportation lasso in his hand had been activated.

A blue-white light curtain emanated from the lasso, enveloping the Imperial Guards like a cocoon.

Then a flash of white light, and the falling golden figure vanished completely into the air.

Odysseus breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the guards leave safely.

Even without brotherly affection, their genetic code compels them to maintain absolute efficiency in ensuring the survival of their comrades. The Primarch truly considered everything, valuing the life of every warrior.

Ran Dan Overlord froze, its mind racing, and roared in the public communications: "Find the human transport ship, it's nearby."

It looked up and saw human warriors buzzing around like flies, flying deeper into the city.

"You still want to leave?" The overlord of Ran Dan seemed to answer his own question: "Then we'll leave first!"

After a brief moment of reflection, the alien overlord confirmed that humanity's mission was not suicidal.

There are spaceships waiting to intercept them. The humans want to destroy the battle moon and then leave safely.

"Humanity will not succeed! Before you achieve your goal, the Battle Moon will leave this place and take you out of the real universe. Even if we are destroyed, you will be lost in the warp!"

Ran Dan Overlord's furious roar, watching the human assault team leave, received no response.

After a brief entanglement, the Imperial Guard and the Destroyers had broken free of the anti-aircraft fire.

Along the way, there are also fixed defensive turrets; you can simply dodge the bullets.

At a distance of 200 kilometers, with a wide field of vision, the flying backpack accelerates to three times the speed of sound, reaching the target in 200 seconds.

During the flight, Cabri looked down and saw the calm surface of the artificial river tremble for a moment.

"I need to detonate the first bomb. The aliens have activated the combat moon engine; they intend to leave."

We must stop the aliens from making their next move!
Cabri warned in the communications: "Guards, beware of the violent mental attack!"

"Understood!" Company Commander Odysseus responded immediately. He had never seen the power of the demonic weapon before, but he had to respect it.

"There will be a powerful mental shock coming, so be careful not to get too caught up in it," he informed his colleagues in the Imperial Guard to avoid any accidents.

Through the telepathic link, Kebri asked another group of his brothers who were on the raid, "How's your progress? We're preparing to detonate the demon weapon."

With two tasks running simultaneously, he had to ask his brother about the specific progress and timeline.

"It can be detonated. It will detonate simultaneously in ten seconds." The mental link responded, which relieved Kebri.

He also learned about the progress of his team's team, which was not far behind his own.

"Throw it down!" Cabri ordered without hesitation, instructing his brothers to unleash the demonic weapon.

Doomsday acted swiftly, activating the detonator, setting the synchronization time, pulling back the black cloth, and dropping the Khorne.

"Hehehe! Goodbye everyone, I won't miss you!" The bloodthirsty madman roared in his final moments, "Never to see you again!"

The demon container fell freely from the sky, its runes glowing and emitting fine red lightning, which echoed the runes engraved on the body of the Great Demon Khorne.

"Come on, I can't wait." The bloodthirsty madman opened his arms, letting the power within him flow out, the runes absorbing his power through the crimson lightning.

The bloodthirsty demon's physical form vanished, coalescing into a red sphere that exuded a chaotic aura.

Before it had fully exploded, the concept of evil began to pollute reality.

The Ran Dan overlords felt very uneasy. Their race was born with strong spirits and could sensitively perceive changes in emotions.

After the human dropped an object, the controlled servant army's bloodlust began to rise.

"Don't look directly at that thing," it immediately ordered, commanding the auxiliary troops to turn around.

Now is not the time to intercept humans. If the influence is not eliminated, the vassal army will soon go berserk.

At that time, let alone fighting, whether they can follow orders is another matter entirely.

Seeing the canister falling from the sky, emitting an ominous crimson light, the Ran Dan Overlord assumed it was a new weapon developed by humans, a targeted weapon specifically designed to control the mind of his own race.

After the servant turned away, the overlord of Randan heard a vicious roar coming from the jar: "Damn alien, feel the wrath of the Blood God!"

"What is that thing?" While the overlord was still pondering, the jar containing the demon exploded in mid-air!

There were no dazzling sparks, no deafening explosions; only a blood-red circular shockwave spread out.

The bloodthirsty, frenzied essence surged forth, ignoring all obstacles, and spread through the cold, mechanical constructs.

At the moment the demon weapon detonated, Ruth, who was in the middle of the battle, looked up at the battle moon in the distance through the porthole and felt two bloodthirsty malice erupt.

In the warp, Khorne sat upright atop the skull.

He sensed the return of a bloodthirsty monster that had once been out of his sight.
