I summoned the Fourth Scourge in Warhammer

Chapter 111 is just a tactical nuclear bomb, don't be afraid.
As the war leader's bloodshot body was kicked in two, the WAAAGH! energy that had been swirling in the hearts of all the green-skinned boys, fueling their fervor and fearlessness, vanished instantly like a punctured balloon.

On the battlefield, the green-skinned creatures, who had been fighting the players to a standstill, seemingly determined to fight to the death, suddenly lost the ferocious red light in their eyes. They looked blankly at the weapons in their hands, then at the mountains of corpses of their comrades around them. The courage and fighting spirit that had sustained them seemed to have vanished along with their leader's death.

One of the greenskins turned and fled, and the entire greenskin front instantly collapsed. They dropped their weapons, turned tail and ran, pushing and trampling each other in a chaotic scene, all traces of their previous ferocity gone.

As the saying goes, even if you had 10,000 pigs running around, it would take three months to catch them all, let alone these green-skinned animals that run much faster than pigs.

Seeing this, JK decisively abandoned the idea of ​​annihilating the enemy.

"All units cease pursuit, reinforce defensive lines, and reposition the wounded! Let them escape!"

Let them run away, what else can we do?

……

Inside the temporary command post after the battle.

JK saw the two Space Marines who looked like gods descended from heaven. He straightened his gunpowder-covered uniform and gave them a standard military salute.

"The resolution of this battle is largely thanks to the two of you."

"Oh, not at all," [Playful but Incompetent] waved his hand and said modestly, "If you hadn't kept these green-skinned creatures here, even if we had rushed over, this combat barge would probably have been torn to pieces by now."

JK nodded and asked curiously, "Speaking of which, what about your explosive guns and other equipment? Shouldn't you always have those two weapons with you? I'd like to see the classic scene of Astartes wielding the chainsaw sword."

His gaze shifted to the silent [Cai Hai Ai Wan] beside him, noticing that the other's right leg was standing in an unnatural position: "And this guy's foot... seems to have a problem, is it injured?"

“We don’t need that kind of thing,” Ai Ge said smugly, spreading out his palm. “This is the best weapon and tool!”

"Forcing the use of a skill that I haven't fully mastered just hurt myself." [Cai Hai Ai Wan] calmly said, "In martial arts terms, it's like making a mistake while practicing. At best, it causes internal and external damage; at worst, it can lead to death by exploding... But it's nothing serious. With Astartes' recovery ability, I can continue fighting in half an hour."

"Uh..." JK, momentarily at a loss for how to respond to this player-like remark, decided to decisively change the subject, "The rank-and-file soldiers have captured a few greenskins alive, would you two like to take a look?"

“Look! Why don’t you look?” Aige immediately became interested. “I really want to see what the captured greenskins look like.”

Soon, an Orc, bound hand and foot in power shackles, was carried in by several player warriors. Although it was still strong and muscular, it looked timid and fearful in front of the crowd, even cowardly.

"I've told you everything you wanted to say! Please don't kill me!" the green-skinned man pleaded incoherently.

“It’s unbelievable,” JK said, ignoring the green-skinned man’s wailing. “Just moments ago, the Ork were fearless on the battlefield, displaying both courage and skill in battle. Now, just because of the death of their leader, they’ve become such cowards…”

Aige carefully examined them from head to toe, satisfied his curiosity, and then said with a smile, "There are quite a few enemies like this. The Greenskins, the Tyranids, and even some of the Undead are like this; their rank-and-file soldiers have no initiative whatsoever. Once their leader or node creature is killed, the entire race immediately falls into a state of morale collapse, standing still, or even killing each other." Aige shrugged and continued, "The reason for this is twofold. On the one hand, in the Warhammer universe, high-end combat power is indeed powerful enough to influence the entire battle; on the other hand, of course, it's to make it easier for authors to write exciting heroic characters."

"Think about it, once the node creature dies, the enemy completely collapses. It's much more interesting than depicting a hero wiping out the entire enemy army from start to finish... But this setting also makes things easier for us, doesn't it?"

“Indeed,” JK nodded in deep agreement, “The ability to resurrect the dead makes assassinations so convenient for us. The methods we can use are simply unrestrained…”

At this point, he seemed to suddenly remember something, and his expression changed slightly: "By the way, Li Yongsi! Has the tactical nuclear bomb buried under the command post been dug out yet?"

Li Yongsi turned his head with some doubt: "Not yet, are we digging now?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the command post fell into a deathly silence.

The smiles on the faces of the two brothers, 【爱玩还菜】 and 【菜还爱玩】, froze instantly. Slowly, inch by inch, they turned their heads and looked at JK with eyes that looked like they had seen a ghost.

"What did you say?!"

"A tactical nuclear weapon?!"

Faced with two piercing gazes that seemed to see right through her, JK cleared her throat, trying to break the awkward silence.

“Ahem,” he tried to explain, “this is a necessary measure. To prevent the enemy from trying to use high-end forces to raid our command post, like we did to the Orks today… we need a safety net for mutual destruction, right? Anyway… we can respawn!”

JK's last sentence was delivered with such confidence, as if he were casually discussing what to have for lunch.

However, this explanation did not reassure the two brothers; instead, it made their expressions even more interesting. Being resurrected was one thing, but neither of them wanted to experience the feeling of being instantly vaporized by a tactical nuclear bomb detonated beneath their feet.

Moreover, it's not convenient for them to die nowadays. For ordinary players, being resurrected after death can be explained as recruiting new soldiers, but it's much more difficult for Astartes to be resurrected after death.

"We're leaving first," [Playful but Incompetent]'s expression instantly switched from astonishment to a business-like smile. He grabbed his younger brother, who was about to say something, "There are still some remaining enemies in the hive waiting for us to wipe them out!"

Before the words were even finished, the two powerful Space Marines turned around almost immediately and strode out of the command post, their speed so fast it was as if they were running away.

Contact me again if needed!

A polite remark drifted in from outside the door, and then the figures of the two steel giants disappeared from everyone's sight.
