Warhammer: Empire Reboot

This is what Anmental came to Nova Magno for: the fragments of the Nightbringer.

The transport field is undergoing final calibration.

The floor of the entire hall suddenly sank downwards.

The anti-gravity devices on hundreds of Destroyers simultaneously emitted sharp alarms, and the metal bodies that were originally suspended in mid-air were smashed as if by a giant hammer.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

One after another, they crashed into the black stone ground.

Haskatef bent his knees and knelt heavily, only managing to stay upright by supporting himself with his scepter.

The situation in Anmental is slightly better.

Multiple anti-gravity and space stabilization devices on its body activated simultaneously, managing to withstand the initial pressure.

The next second, the green light in Ammental's eye sockets suddenly shone brightly.

The physical space of the entire area is being forcibly fixed.

The coordinates of the tomb, originally used for phase transmission, kept jumping around, but the spatial parameters seemed to be held in place by two hands.

The transmitter kept sending error messages.

Phase shift failed.

[Coordinates could not be established]

[Dimensional interfaces are anchored to reality]

Anmental suddenly looked at Haskatef.

"Change lanes!"

"Unable to complete."

"Tear it open!"

The green light in Haskataev's eyes flashed wildly.

"The real-world parameters are continuously locked in, and there is dual interference from ultra-high-intensity gravity and psionic energy from the outside, making it impossible for the phase engine to obtain a stable exit."

Ammental finally realized the seriousness of the problem.

It activates its own space device.

Still a failure.

An even heavier pressure then descended.

The living metal structures on the chests of several nearby Destroyers began to dent, and two anti-gravity platforms could not withstand the pressure and were pressed directly into the ground, their mechanical appendages scraping long sparks off the black stone.

Ammental let out a roar filled with electronic noise.

"who!"

The static teleportation field unfolded directly at the other end of the sealed hall.

Upon witnessing this scene, Haskatef's remaining normal logic faltered for a moment.

While blocking the necromantic phase teleportation, the opponent was still able to use their spatial teleportation method to precisely enter the deepest part of the tomb.

This means that from the moment Lawson locked onto this location, Anmentar had no way out.

The golden figure was the first to step out of the light screen.

Then came Guilliman, Isa, Evelyn, and Lawson's guards.

Titus also arrived with his Ultramarines squad through another passage, and the two sides sealed off the two main exits of the hall almost simultaneously.

Guilliman immediately noticed the sealing device in Anmental's arms.

"It seems your judgment was correct."

Evelyn clearly sensed something of it.

The oppressive force of the material universe that made the Spirit Race bloodline instinctively uncomfortable was still clear even through the seal.

"That's it."

Lawson simply turned his head and gave a look to the guard beside him.

"Ergou, go and get my things back."

"Got it!"

Er Gou grinned, his face contorted with a fierce, bloodthirsty aura.

He took a heavy step forward, and the [Claw of Horus] on his right arm opened, with scorching arcs of armor-piercing electricity surging from its four long and sharp dark gold power claws.

Anmental's eyes blazed with a murderous red light, and a mad roar erupted from deep within his chest:

"Inferior organic worms! This is a material divine body belonging to ultimate purification! This is my eternal authority!!"

Before the words were even finished, a green Gaussian beam shot straight at Er Gou's head.

Er Gou shifted his upper body slightly, and the beam of light grazed his shoulder armor, carving a smooth gap in the black stone wall behind him.

Ammental then activated all weapons, and the propulsion and anti-gravity structure beneath the mechanical body erupted simultaneously. Using the thrust generated by this, it forcibly broke through some of the suppression, and the cutting blade on the other mechanical arm went straight for Er Gou's chest.

This action was enough to prevent most of the enemies it had killed in the past from reacting in time.

But it was facing Er Gou.

As soon as Ammental's weapon cut in at close range, Er Gou raised his right hand, and Horus's Claw collided head-on with the cutting blade.

Sparks flew, and the living metal structure of Ammental's arm twisted instantly.

The force surged back from the weapon, causing its entire body to tilt backward, and the black stone ground beneath its feet to crack.

"With that shabby body, you dare to yell at me?!"

Er Gou gripped the Hyperphase Blade tightly with his right paw, grabbed Anmental's right shoulder joint as he held the Black Stone Container, and twisted it outward with a sudden burst of force from his five fingers!

With a sickening metallic tearing sound, the entire mechanical arm, along with the heavy artillery and servo system, was ripped off by Er Gou!

Before the nano-repair fluid in Anmental's body could flow out of the broken end, Horus's Claw on Er Gou's right arm, wrapped in raging armor-piercing flames, slammed down from top to bottom and pierced through the top of his head!

"Whose thing do you think this belongs to?!"

puff!

Then, the four powered claws tore through the energy shield above Ammental's head without any hindrance, piercing through the metal skull of this destroyer warlord!

Ammental's body convulsed violently.

As a destroyer warlord, its self-repair and consciousness backup mechanisms are far superior to those of ordinary undead, and a portion of its core consciousness data has already instinctively begun to transfer to backup nodes.

But the bee colony had been waiting for a long time.

The commands, coordinates, memory fragments, phase paths, and a large amount of battle data stored in the past that surged out before the collapse of Anmental's consciousness core were directly intercepted by the swarm mind.

Its fragmented memories, filled with the curse of the destroyer, were quickly categorized in the face of the swarm's computing power.

The green light in Ammental's eyes went out.

Er Gou pulled out Horus's Claw and let the metal corpse smash to the ground.

The surrounding destroyers wanted to retaliate.

Lawson merely glanced up.

The force that covered the entire hall pressed down again.

The undead that were just about to get up were all pressed back to the ground, and some of the most severely damaged bodies were even crushed by their own weight and external pressure.

Er Gou had already removed the sealing device from the severed arm.

The first round of screening of the bee colony's memories of Anmental was also completed at this time.

"boss!"

"Before this iron tortoise came to the Five Hundred Worlds, it had already dug out five core fragments of the Nightbringer along the eastern edge and the Perseus Arm, following the ruins of the ancient dynasty! It hid them all in its deep space fortress! The one we have is the sixth one!"

Er Gou handed the heavy, cold sealing device to Lawson, his face, full of fat, beaming with a wide grin:

"Boss, the jump coordinates and beacon keys have all been stolen! The passage is right behind this hall! I'll take San Gou and the brothers along the network cable, sneak over there, and bring the remaining five fragments back to you!"

Lawson waved his hand: "Take your equipment, and be quick, don't leave a single scrap behind."

"Alright! Brothers, let's raid their place!"

Er Gou roared excitedly, and behind him, San Gou, Ao-04, and more than ten other guards simultaneously drew their heavy weapons, transforming into streaks of dark golden raging hurricanes that smashed straight through the not-yet-fully-closed necromantic phase portal deep within the Sanctuary and disappeared into the void passage.

Lawson held the octahedral black stone in his palm and weighed it in his hand. The fragment of the Nightbringer inside was still constantly impacting the restraining structure.

This is quite similar to the Void Dragon.

The Star God Fragment was never a quiet energy cell.

Even when they are divided and sealed, they still possess their own consciousness and powers.

Lawson then directly opened the independent containment interface of the armory.

"025, create a super-grade physical and dimensional isolation zone within the folded space. Contain this thing separately, and remember, keep it away from that void dragon on Mars."

"I'm not foolish enough to put fragments of two different real-world deities on the same shelf. The superconducting confinement field is ready and can be received at any time."

Lawson threw the black stone container in his hand directly into the spatial rift.

Only then did he look at the Uzshemyk tomb again.

Ammental is dead.

The Star God Fragment has been obtained.

The massive Destroyer forces it left behind are now in chaos throughout the tomb after losing their supreme command node.

The most reasonable approach is quite simple.

Dismantle what is useful, destroy what is dangerous, and transport what can be studied.

As for the corrupted undead units inside, clear them all out.

Lawson gave the final order: "Clear the entire area and wash the mantle of this planet clean."

The battle formations that had been waiting outside the tomb received orders simultaneously.
