Warhammer 40 A New Hope

"No, it's very troublesome to clean up such a big mess."

"Is there any other useful information?" Zhang Yi asked the Valhalla Ice Guard officer.

"Except for the fact that we saw a few ravens nearby, they might be the eyes of the god you mentioned." The officer replied. "We are not within his observation range, so don't worry, there are no more."

"It's pretty stable, keep it up." Zhang Yi said. "Then I'll give you a new task. Try to capture some magical creatures in this world, the normal kind."

"But be careful not to touch those beings that appear to be divine."

"Especially the swans. You know, the swans in this world are very likely Valkyries."

"clear."

"That's all for now." Zhang Yi stretched and said, "After paddling for so long, Lao Larou said that he finally decided to increase the number of Pathfinders."

"So we're getting a new brother?"

"That's right, but in reality we'll probably have to wait for a while. After all, he plans to use some new technology this time and relax the standards appropriately, but he didn't say what the details are."

Just as Zhang Yi was about to observe the camp for a while and then go back, a flare appeared from a distance, emitting a bright red light in the air.

The hunting team was attacked! And the enemy is very strong!

～～～～～～～～～～～～～

Biubiubius--!

A red beam of light shot out by the laser gun streaked through the air, and a figure flew towards the incoming beam. After a loud bang, the world returned to silence again.

"Odin asked me to come and see a strange human tribe. I thought there would be something interesting." A half-naked man with unknown magic symbols all over his upper body said as he lifted the last Valhalla Ice Guard soldier by the neck. "Weapons and people I've never seen before."

"I have to admit that you are indeed a little different, but you are just mortals, not much different."

He threw the human in his hand a long distance like throwing a shot put. The thin-looking man moved his shoulders. The parts of his body that were burned by the laser beam were recovering at a high speed. Soon, even the marks could not be seen.

"No difference. I don't think Odin would mind if I killed all the people of that so-called strange human tribe."

"I finally got out here, I have to have some fun."

At this time, heavy footsteps were heard, and Zhang Yi and the team of [Pathfinder] Space Marines arrived at the scene.

"Oh, it looks like there's a surprise." Looking at the tall [Pathfinder] Space Marine, he licked the corner of his mouth and said excitedly. "You should be able to satisfy me, right?"

574.Badr

God of War

The first three parts can be summed up in one word: kill!

Kill Persian soldiers, kill giants, kill sea monsters and finally kill the entire Olympian pantheon.

Kratos, the cursed Spartan ghost carrying the ashes of his wife and daughter, eventually killed almost all the Greek gods amid the lies of the Olympian gods.

It can be said that Kratos was almost unable to communicate at that time, and any dog ​​passing by would be slapped twice by him.

But afterwards, Kratos, who had finally gained peace after killing Zeus, looked at the devastated earth, and amid Athena's exclamations, he pierced his body with the artifact - the Sword of Olympus, and returned the power of hope contained in his body to the world, thus planting the seeds of hope.

After doing all this, Kratos was on the verge of death, but even so, the former God of War dragged his dying body through Egypt and came to the Nordic region, far away from everything he was familiar with (the residual soul of Athena still followed him, so I'll say a few words).

Now Kratos is still living with his wife and children in the barrier and has no intention of going out, but the Norse gods' attention to this god of war from a foreign land did not start from the beginning of the plot.

From Balder's words at the beginning of "God of War 4", we can see that Odin had already started to let this loyal hound try to find Kratos, and this god, who became extreme because of his mother's doting, was also happy to complete this task.

But it is obvious that now that the barrier set up by Fei (Kratos' wife in Northern Europe) has not been opened, Balder cannot find Kratos's location and can only wander around.

It just so happened that a task that Odin said casually gave this god who obviously had mental problems a chance to entertain himself.

The target of his entertainment was Zhang Yi and others who appeared in front of him.

～～～～～～～～～～～～～

The reason for coming to this world is to carry out the [God Hunting Plan] mentioned before. The various weak divine creatures captured before have been basically studied thoroughly.

The divine creatures that are still being studied are mainly those from the world of Darkest Dungeon, and because of their peculiarities and weirdness, research there has been slowed down.

The previous experimental results allowed the Empire to have a better understanding of the creatures that can be called "Gods", but the understanding of the monsters in 40K remained the same. After all, the similarities between the two sides were not high.

Because of the previous expedition to another world, the [God Hunting Plan] was slowed down, and all productivity and research efforts were invested in the expedition. After all, research on divine creatures may not necessarily produce results, but research on creations from another world can actually yield gains.

On the other hand, the reason why Zhang Yi chose this world as his target was because he had promised the dwarves in the Warhammer world that he would find some different forging technologies for them. The world of "God of War 4" just happened to have such technologies, and the owners of these technologies were also dwarves.

Judging from the intelligence collected so far, Kratos, who is living in seclusion in Northern Europe, has not come out yet and the plot has not begun, but it is obvious that other people in reality will not stand still before the plot starts or there are no shots - when Kratos of Greece is killing Mount Olympus, other places are probably farming or fighting.

"Baldur in the myth was quite good-looking, but here he is just a psychopath..."

"Now is not the time to worry about this, Boss!"

Balder, who was standing opposite Zhang Yi and others, was attacking Zhengyi and others like a cannonball. In response, Kel, the captain of the Pathfinders, loosened his grip on Wu Mo's hand.

boom!

The attacking Balder flew backwards, and Wu Mo also flew back.

"Are you OK?"

“(Raising left thumb) Exciting!”

"...would believing in Khorne make you an idiot?"

In the first confrontation with Balder, the Norse God of Light, although both sides were repelled, Balder did not suffer any substantial harm due to the blessing given to him by his mother Freya. On the other hand, Wu Mo, even though he had the ability to resist supernatural forces, also had obvious cracks on his power armor.

"What should we do? We obviously want to avoid attracting the attention of the gods here as much as possible." Kerr, the commander of the chapter, asked. "If we don't deal with the problem of Balder, then we will undoubtedly become the primary target of the old villain Odin before 'he' (Kratos) leaves the barrier, and we may also be hunted down by Freya."

"Given Freya's curse on Kratos at the end and her behavior at the beginning of the next film, it's definitely possible."

"I'll take care of it." Zhang Yi said. "Take these people back, maybe they can still be saved."

"Boss, are you sure you won't create a Chosen of Khorne or something? Or are you able to modify the memories of divine creatures?"

"No, but I can confuse him a few things."

Balder, the Norse god, stood up with abnormal excitement on his face, and attacked Zhang Yi and the others again.

[Nurgle: Muscle and stratum corneum proliferation]

[Khorne: Power Amplification]

boom!

The blood-red left arm took Balder's attack, and an obvious shock wave spread out, blowing away the snow on the ground.

Then, a mediocre right punch hit Bader's face, knocking him back.

Compared to the punch in the original plot that knocked out Kratos' teeth, this punch seemed unremarkable, and might not even be considered a serious one. However, for Balder, it was a long-lost experience - he felt pain.

In the original myth, when Balder was born, his mother Freya asked all things to swear that they would never harm her son Balder. All the things she prayed for agreed to her request, except for one mistletoe - because it was too small, it was not discovered by Freya.

This makes it impossible for anything except mistletoe to cause any harm to Balder.

In the world of "God of War", Balder also received the blessing of his mother Freya, but unlike the original myth, this blessing made him immune to harm from all things, but also made his food taste like chewing wax, his drinks tasteless, and he felt no pain, fatigue, or thirst.

Just like a conscious vegetative person, he had almost no feelings, or his feelings were extremely weak. This was why he hated his mother so much. He believed that everything he had was taken away by his mother.

But now, as he was completing the mission assigned by Odin and fighting these unknown enemies, he felt the long-lost pain.

"This is what I want!"

“It really hurts…”

Looking at the crazy Balder, Zhang Yi had already guessed what the current situation was. It was obvious that his supernatural resistance allowed him to temporarily break the blessing on Balder when he attacked him, making him feel the long-lost pain - and that was exactly what he (Bader) expected.

"I will be very careful not to kill you instantly!" At this time, the expression on Balder's face was almost distorted. He looked at Zhang Yi in front of him with extremely fanatical eyes. "I will enjoy this long-lost pain!"

bite--!

Just as Balder was speaking, a barrier like broken glass appeared and spread out in the next second. Then, the ground split apart and everything around began to change.

Balder, who was obviously a berserker rather than a magician, did not react to the sudden change in the environment for a while, but the ground attacking from both sides made him react.

boom--!

The thick ground was punched through by Balder, but the sudden attack did not cause any wounds on him.

"After all, when he fought Kratos, the ground cracked, but he was able to stand up and continue fighting as if nothing had happened." Zhang Yi said as he stood on the moving ground, looking at Balder who was unharmed. "But it is also confirmed that this guy is not in the right mind, then..."

"I'll also bully the Blue Tights Boy Scout."

The mark representing Tzeentch lit up, and the surrounding space that changed, split, and flipped began to fly towards Balder. After dozens of seconds, a maze appeared.

"Bader probably doesn't have much knowledge of magic. The mirror space should be able to control him for a long time, as long as his mother doesn't suddenly come looking for him..."

boom--!

A huge crash sound occurred in the maze. Just as Zhang Yi thought, Balder would not waste time trying to get out of the maze normally. He would definitely run out of the maze in the simplest and most direct way - crashing his way out.

"I don't know if Kratos in the game will choose to smash his way out or walk through the maze and solve the puzzle when he encounters a maze. After all, reality is not a game. Why should I spend time solving puzzles when I can tear down the wall..."

Zhang Yi twisted his wrist, and the huge maze that trapped Balder began to change. More walls appeared on his path, greatly delaying the time it took him to break out of the maze.

"Freya prayed that all things would not harm her child, but the target of her prayer should only be 'all things' in this world, right?"

"What about things that are not of this world? What about things that cannot occur naturally? What about things that are transformed and become completely different from what they were originally?"

Balder, who was in the maze, had obviously become irritable and began to rush around aimlessly, so much so that he did not even realize that he had been led in circles.

"For the sake of the subsequent plot and actions, I can't kill you, but..."

"There should be many experiments that can be performed on you."

"Please hold on a little longer, Balder~"

575. The experiment begins!

Because of the blessing on Balder, ordinary attacks cannot cause harm to him, which also makes him accustomed to the reckless and crazy attack style like a berserker.

If there’s a tree on the road, push it down; if there’s a wall on the road, smash it; if there’s a mountain on the road, break through it.

This way of fighting can indeed maximize the effect of his blessings, and also allow him to deal with a series of problems in the simplest way - but it doesn't work every time.

The maze seemed to have no end. After Bard smashed through wall after wall that blocked his way, he was still greeted by the walls of the maze (if it was Ancient One who used [Mirror Space] here, he would have been able to kill Balder).

For a god, the damage he had suffered and the energy he had consumed so far were insignificant, but all this repetition made him irritable - what he wanted was to fight, to feel the pain again, not to cycle in this endless stone wall!

Suddenly, Balder, who was rushing all the way, stopped because he suddenly felt a hint of coolness.

He turned around suddenly and saw a portal with flashing sparks closing, and a pitch-black dagger was inserted into his back.

boom--!

Balder's charge missed again, and on the new pile of rubble, he pulled out the black dagger that was stuck in his back.

"shadow?"

"The EGO equipment made by the assassin's shadow (HE level) can't cause any real damage to him, but it doesn't seem to be completely useless." Zhang Yi muttered as he watched Balder destroy the dagger from a distance. "Is there a priority override issue? It's obviously not something from this world."

“More experiments are needed.”

"Who's next?"

As he spoke, Zhang Yi opened a portal, and a burly man with a lot of mechanical devices on his body walked out. He moved with the help of a mechanical tentacle and rushed towards the direction where Balder was.

boom--!

The automatically opened maze walls and the sudden attack caught Balder off guard. Balder, who was a head shorter than the attacker, had his head held down and was dragged along the ground.

Whoosh—boom!

The sturdy man, whose eyes were covered by an unknown mechanical device, threw Balder in his hand out, and a wall was directly smashed. Then the melta cannon in his left hand fired at the target.

"The movement is so smooth? Is it a new type of combat servant made based on Yoerha's design?" Zhang Yi analyzed as he looked at the strong man who beat up Balder with a surprise attack. "The degree of completion is really high..."

"But I don't think we can beat Balder."

Just as Zhang Yi expected, even though this experimental fighter servant had a huge advantage in its first contact with Bader, the latter still stood up and walked in front of it under the scorching molten flow.

Seeing this, the phase blade that replaced the right arm of the robot flashed green light and swung towards Baal who was approaching in front of it.

bite--!

"You can handle this?"
