Warhammer: Empire Reboot

A four-meter-long gash stretched from the skull's mask to its chest.

The golden fire poured in.

The bloodstain on the King's chest vibrated as he forcefully pressed down on the wound.

As soon as Lawson landed, the third head king arrived.

Behind it, eight massive brass pillars lit up simultaneously, their tops ablaze with roaring, open heads.

Hundreds of Christian defenders nearby immediately knelt down, blood gushing from their ears and noses.

Several non-combatant assassins were transferring data from the Thinker Array via a backup interface when their bodies jolted and blood-red cracks appeared in their eyes.

Swarm intelligence immediately cuts off the external perception of these nodes, isolating the impact locally.

Lawson faced the battle cry head-on.

The imperial golden flames behind him suddenly blazed brightly.

The battle cry collided with the golden flames, like blood hitting a red-hot steel plate.

Lawson grinned.

The three black holes formed a triangle, trapping the three giant brass pillars behind the head king.

The burning heads atop the three giant pillars extinguished instantly, reducing the mental impact by nearly half.

Lawson rushed up to it, gripped the axe with both hands, and swung it upwards with a powerful strike.

This axe strike inherits the purest path of power from Angron's memories.

From the soles of the feet, to the spine, to the shoulders, to the wrists.

Every burst of power is like the propulsion section of a warship's main gun.

"Angron" cleaved into the skull king's jaw, then slicing up half of the helmet along the visor.

Golden flames shot out from the crack.

The head king took a step back, swept his right arm, and forced Lawson away.

The fourth and fifth skull kings had already circled around to the side of the main forging temple.

Lawson is the biggest threat.

But their mission is not to kill Lawson.

Khorne's purpose in deploying them was to smash the industrial command center of the Temple of the Great Forge and disrupt Agrippina's fire control and logistical arrangements.

The twelve giant shadow blades reappeared.

The black hole projection pulls the shadow blade, forming a low-altitude blockade.

Just as the fourth head king approached the side entrance of the temple, a giant shadow blade came crashing down from the side front.

It raised its arm to block.

boom!

The Shadow Blade exploded in golden flames, leaving a dent in the brass armor.

Then the second and third shadow blades fell in succession, forcing it back several steps.

The fifth-headed king ignored everything and charged forward headfirst.

Lawson held the axe in his right hand and clenched his left hand with all five fingers together.

A black hole appeared beneath its feet.

A moment of gravity pulls you down.

The fifth-headed king's knee slammed into the ground, causing his massive body to lurch forward.

Lawson transformed into a golden afterimage, directly bypassing the blockade of the three-headed king in front, and landed on its back.

The battle axe, with its barbs held back, slashed into the gap in the armor behind the neck.

Golden flames erupted.

The fifth-headed king roared and reached behind him with his backhand.

Lawson let go immediately, sliding down the skull king's back with his right foot on the end of the axe handle.

A black hole appears in front of the axe blade, pulling inwards with gravity.

Lawson exerted force with his feet.

The axe blade was drawn in by the black hole, cutting a deeper fissure along the skull king's cervical vertebrae.

Click.

A section of brass spine is broken.

The fifth-headed king knelt on the ground, losing his balance.

Lawson drew his battle axe, landed close to its side, and swung it horizontally with both hands.

The head flew off.

The black hole opened and swallowed the still-burning head.

The remaining seven heads have already pressed forward.

The First Head King's warhammer slammed down once more.

The second head used its claws to block Lawson's retreat.

The giant pillar behind the third head lit up again.

After being forced back by the Shadow Blade, the fourth head began to circle around to the other side.

The sixth, seventh, and eighth heads simultaneously charged toward the main gate of the temple of the main casting.

They changed their tactics.

Three heads restrained Lawson, while four heads pounded on the door.

Lawson's eyes darkened.

All twelve black holes were pulled apart.

Six of them blocked the path to the temple, three interfered with and restrained the Skull King, and the remaining three rotated around him.

He held the battle axe "Angron" horizontally in front of him.

He passed between the three-headed kings, his body being continuously pulled by the black hole's gravity, his trajectory resembling a broken zigzag line.

The sixth-headed king is charging toward the main gate.

A black hole suddenly appeared in front of its right knee, and the outside of its knee was instantly pulled.

Lawson swept past it from the left and cleaved its knee with an axe.

The first axe blow pierces the armor.

The second axe cuts the bone.

The third axe blow was infused with golden fire.

Its massive body fell to the side, landing right in front of the seventh-headed king.

The Seventh-Headed King was forced to stop.

A giant shadow blade fell from above, smashing cracks into its shoulder armor.

The eighth head has already crashed into the main gate of the Temple of the Great Forge.

It held the first gate with both arms.

Instead of smashing the door with an axe, it used eight massive brass pillars on its back to drive into the ground, preparing to turn its body into a battering ram.

"Kexas, open pressure valves 13, 14, and 15 on the outside of the main gate."

Three high-pressure plasma discharge pipes popped out from the side of the temple's outer wall, spraying towards the lower body of the Eighth-Headed King.

The blue-white plasma beam bombarded the brass leg armor, burning large white marks on it.

The Skull King swayed.

Lawson has arrived.

"Angron" slashed downwards, precisely striking the base of a massive brass pillar behind it.

click!

The giant pillar broke.

The King of Skull's ramming motion stopped.

Lawson swung his axe four times in quick succession, cutting off half of its back post.

The eight blood seals are out of balance.

The Eighth Head King turned and grabbed at Lawson.

Lawson went straight to meet him.

The black hole trapped its head.

A moment of loss of feeling.

The battle axe pierced his chest, leaving a bloody mark.

The imperial golden fire exploded along the axe blade.

The eighth-headed king's chest was like an open furnace, spewing blood and fire before being swallowed by the black hole.

It staggered two steps and knelt down in front of the Temple of the Great Forge.

Lawson stepped on its chest and pulled out the battle axe.

Second kill.

The remaining six finally began to focus their pressure on Lawson.

They abandoned their dispersed attacks and formed a semicircle, surrounding Lawson in front of the temple's main entrance.

In the distance, the battle lines between the fifth-tier bear guards and the brass skullbreakers also entered the counter-pushing phase.
