Warhammer: Empire Reboot

"The fifth place."

The staff officers kept reporting.

The Sun Lord originally anticipated that this fleet war would last at least several years, or even decades.

The Empire will lose even more battleships.

More naval crew members will die from the boarding swarms and biological plasma.

The Empire may eventually be able to force back Nautilus's tentacles, but it will never be able to defeat them easily.

Now, the main tendrils are breaking off on their own.

The main screen in the middle of the bridge suddenly turned a deathly white.

Deep within the swarm, the largest core mothership exploded from the inside.

A white light pierced through the layers of biological ships, then rapidly expanded. The surrounding escort ships were like leaves caught in a storm, tumbling and breaking apart in pieces.

The impact swept across the void.

The Void Shield of the Imperial flagship suddenly lit up, causing the entire bridge to tremble.

Once the viewing screen was restored, a huge hole had appeared in the middle of Nautilus's main tentacle.

The largest core mothership has disappeared.

Thousands of bio-ships in the surrounding area were also wiped out.

The main tentacle that once spanned the Pacific Starfield and forced the Empire to retreat continuously was finally severed in the middle.

The imperial generals on the bridge were deeply shocked by what they saw.

A staff officer asked in a low voice, "Did the Regent do all of this?"

The Sun Lord watched the Zerg fleet disintegrate on the screen.

"Guilliman must be inside."

"But this kind of thing doesn't seem like something he would do."

There is only one person in the entire Imperium who can continuously jump between Zerg motherships, poison them along the way, and finally stuff an extermination weapon into the largest core mothership.

Leontus slowly exhaled.

"It's probably Lawson!"

The Sun Lord rarely uses imprecise language.

But there's really no better way to describe the scene before us.

"The Master of the Seal is fucking awesome!"

P.S.: 10,000-word update today...

Chapter 266 Gene Templates Beyond the Galaxy

Deep within another main tentacle, the Lion King finally saw the Norn Queen.

It floats in the middle of a huge neural chamber, with a crown-like shell extending outwards and countless nerve cords hanging from the brain tissue structure, connecting to the entire core mothership.

But they couldn't break through.

The entire chamber was filled with Zerg.

The veterans of the Dark Angels' inner ring and the Holy Blood Guard were compressed onto several sloping bone beams, with the barrage of explosives never ceasing. Shell casings rolled down their armor, quickly swallowed by the writhing flesh beneath their feet.

Dante flies above the battlefield.

One side of his jump pack had stalled, and he could only rely on the remaining nozzles to constantly correct his posture.

If you kill one, ten will take its place.

Hundreds of Wolverines blocked the space between the bone beams, causing the repulsion shields to dent repeatedly. The shoulder-mounted heavy railguns roared incessantly, shattering the oncoming heavy insectoid beasts one by one.

Pass! Pass! Pass!

The saber-toothed tiger was locked in combat with the three-headed insectoid behemoth.

The ion cannon illuminated the chamber, and the ten-meter-long plasma blade continuously sliced ​​through the Zerg's carapace.

But more and more tyrant guards crawled out of the blood pool, hugged the mech's legs with their bodies, and dragged the eighteen-meter-tall steel beast downwards.

The Lion King stood at the very front.

The sword of loyalty has been chipped.

He had just pierced the chest of one of the Norn envoys with his sword when another Norn envoy pounced from the side. A spear of purplish-black psionic energy condensed and struck the Emperor's Shield.

boom!

The bone in his foot broke in the middle.

The Lion King leaped up from the falling debris, his shield smashing through the Norn messenger's arms, and the Sword of Loyalty slashed across, slicing off half of his head.

The monster's remaining brain matter was still flashing, and the nerve tendrils on its back were wrapped around the lion king's arm.

More tyrant guards closed in from all sides, their bone scythes sealing off all landing points.

Just as the Lion King was preparing to advance towards the swarm of insects, a half-crippled saber-toothed tiger at the rear of the battlefield suddenly emitted a black-gold light.

A static crack spread out from the left side of the saber-toothed tiger.

Lawson and Guilliman strode out.

The moment they appeared, the balance of power on the entire battlefield shifted.

Lawson's psionic powers swept through the neural chambers.

"The Holy Blood Angels and the First Legion have completed their mission and are withdrawing."

Just as Dante cleaved a winged insect in two, a blue and white light curtain swept past his feet.

The Blood Guard, the Dark Angels' inner circle, and all the Wolverines and Sabretooths whose structures were still discernible were simultaneously captured by spatial forces.

Within seconds, the bone beams that were originally crowded with soldiers were empty.

Only the Lion King, Guilliman, and Lawson remained in the chamber.

The swarm was momentarily slowed down because its target had suddenly disappeared.

The Lion King turned to look at the two of them.

"Perfect timing!"

He shook off the nerve tentacles wrapped around his arm, and the Sword of Loyalty pointed at the Norn Queen ahead.

"Let's fight to our hearts' content today!"

Lawson pulled a dark, indistinct object out of the static field.

The Katachon Barking Toad swept across the battlefield and landed in front of the densest swarm of neuro beasts in front of the Norn Queen.

Before the lion king could even see what it was, the barking toad was already terrified.

puff!

The dark green toxic fog suddenly spread.

At the forefront, thousands of knife-like insects simultaneously lost their shape, their carapaces softened, their muscles dissolved, and they were dumped into the biomass river in swathes.

The exposed brain tissue of the neurobeast rapidly turned black.

As soon as the purplish-black psionic energy gathered, the entire synaptic network collapsed from the middle.

The tyrant's guard took two steps back, and suddenly his abdomen burst open, his internal organs turning into mucus that flowed out from the gaps in his carapace.

The Lion King remained in the position of holding his sword.

He watched helplessly as the Norn messenger, who had just been fighting him, began to collapse from its feet.

The behemoth attempted to use psionic energy to lift its body.

The brain tissue structure melts first.

The enormous body shattered in mid-air, turning into a torrential downpour of decaying flesh and blood.

The Norn Queen's Scream.

A psionic storm whipped up a toxic fog, and the mothership simultaneously shut down all its blood vessels and circulatory systems. Vast exoskeletons grew from within, attempting to envelop itself in layers of insulating tissue.

Another barking toad appeared directly on the crown of the Norn Beetle Queen.

puff!

The shriek stopped abruptly.

The crown-like carapace quickly lost its luster, drooping and collapsing. Venom seeped into the mothership along the nerve roots, and the synaptic lights throughout the chamber went out one after another.

Twelve seconds later, the Norn queen lost her shape.

The Lion King slowly lowered his sword.

He looked at the worm queen's remains flowing into the blood pool along the bone beam, then glanced at the stasis rift that Lawson had just closed in his hand.

Guilliman asked from the side, "Why are you still shocked? You should know the Markers better than I do."

The Lion King glared at him.

"What I'm familiar with is his ability to win, not his ability to pull a toad out of his pocket and poison the entire mothership!"

Lawson ignored them.

The death message of the Norn Queen is spreading along the main tentacles, and other nearby core nodes are beginning to sever biomass connections.

They don't have much time left.

Tens of thousands of shadow blades emerged from behind Lawson.

The dark gold blades quickly gathered and deformed, rotating in different directions in several layers to form a giant drill bit.

hum-

The drill bit began to accelerate.

The surrounding flesh and blood were drawn towards the blade by an invisible force, and before they even touched it, they were torn to pieces.
