Warhammer 40 A New Hope
Page 398
Another white portal appeared right above Gilgamesh, and a large number of shells flew out of it.
Boom boom boom boom--!
The sudden attack caused Gilgamesh's huge body to shake and it fell to the ground, and its attack temporarily stopped.
"I have to admit that these giant human toys are pretty nice from a visual point of view." Griffon started to talk again as soon as he could speak. "But demons are not so easy to defeat."
"Interesting." After seeing Gilgamesh being temporarily knocked down by a round of bombardment, V looked at the Pathfinder Space Marines who were walking out of the portal, and then stopped his gaze on Zhang Yi's left hand. "The power of the devil..."
"I don't know who you are." V walked over to Zhang Yi with his cane and said, "Perhaps you do have a lot of research on demons, but..."
"I advise you not to go too deep into this."
"You don't even know the details of this..."
puff!
V's words were interrupted by a sudden laugh, and everyone's eyes were focused on a Pathfinder Space Marine.
"Um...sorry, I have a cold recently."
"..." You can't help laughing when you have a cold, right?!
V is the combination of Virgil's separated humanity and knowledge. He has everything Virgil has seen and heard over the years, which makes him considered an intelligent being in the entire Devil May Cry world - he can find a place to build a house, put on a gray robe, and act as an old grandfather who can answer other people's questions.
But this was without the knowledge of others. Zhang Yi's descendants had fully understood the plot of this series of games before coming to this world, which made V's pretentious behavior in front of them seem a little funny - someone just couldn't hold back his laughter.
Just when the scene was becoming somewhat awkward, the knocked-down Gilgamesh stood up again, and the heads of the tentacles flashed blue and white light.
"Leave this to us, you go and do your own thing." Zhang Yi said as he led a group of [Pathfinder] Space Marines towards Gilgamesh who had stood up again. "Don't you know a lot? The things you need to do should be very important, right?"
For the first time, V felt that he could not see through the human in front of him. This was a situation that had never happened in the past month. You know, he was the first to feel that Dante and Nero would lose to Yurizen.
But now, he couldn't see through Zhang Yi in front of him.
"...Let's go." V said to the silent council.
"Hey, hey, hey, you don't really think that we can defeat this demon just by relying on these humans? This is impossible!"
"Whether they can do it or not has nothing to do with us." V said. "Like he said, we have something more important to do."
"Uh, well, I'll come back later and see if I can get some carcasses to eat."
Griffon took V away from the battlefield, and Gilgamesh's tentacles were aimed at Zhang Yi and others at this time.
"Wu Mo leads the team to attack at close range! The Terminator team spreads out to harass from a distance!"
"Get moving, little ones!"
Buzz--!
With a roar of backpacks starting up, a Pathfinder Space Marine assault team led by Wu Mo flew directly to Gilgamesh not far away, and several energy bombs attacked them.
Two Space Marines were shot down by energy bombs in mid-air, while Wu Mo and two other Space Marines successfully reached the target.
Unlike in the game, the Gilgamesh in front of them had no obvious weaknesses - although the protection at the joints was indeed weaker in order to allow for free movement, there were no obvious red spots that could be seen at a glance.
DUANG--!
The full-power power sword bounced off Gilgamesh. The impact steel hardened by magic was harder than they expected. Wu Mo took direct action and grabbed the metal plate on one of Gilgamesh's legs.
Click!
A piece of impact steel the size of Wu Mo's palm was taken down...
Yes, it was taken off. The moment Wu Mo directly touched it, the magic power on it dissipated, which made the impact steel, which was originally a piece of steel, no longer stable. Its hardness and stability also dropped greatly, so that it was taken off directly by Wu Mo and deformed in his hand.
At this time, the two previously shot down Pathfinder Assault Team Space Marines activated their jetpacks again and appeared in the air. This time they landed directly on Gilgamesh's back, ready to attack its core.
In response, ripples began to appear on Gilgamesh's back armor like the surface of a lake, and as the two Pathfinder Space Marines were about to land, sharp spikes stabbed out!
However, once again, those sharp spikes began to soften the moment they came into contact with the Pathfinder Space Marines, so that when they landed, a large number of spikes were directly broken off, and those spikes only left white spots on their power armor.
The two consecutive anomalies made Gilgamesh a little confused for a moment. Since it was created, it had faced many different demons, but it had never encountered such a situation.
He had encountered some big fools before who were able to use brute force to destroy his powerful magic-enhanced impact steel body, but he had never encountered such a situation before - it was as if the impact steel he controlled was deactivated the moment it was touched by these people.
While Gilgamesh was at a loss, Zhang Yi secretly opened his own portal and began to collect the fragments of impact steel.
"Don't rush! Come one by one!"
"I told you not to grab it!"
584. 'Hanging' Dante check-in
A three-member [Pathfinder] Terminator team came to a position with a wide field of vision, set up the plasma projector, and the next second several blue plasma spheres flew out.
These plasma spheres landed precisely on Gilgamesh's metal body, causing it to stagger.
As mentioned before, impact steel has the ability to change its shape and hardness by injecting magic power. The more magic power injected, the harder it becomes. It's simple and crude.
Coincidentally, the 40K version follows the same pattern, not much fancy stuff, just a lot of stuff.
Look at the bolter, the increasingly large Titans, the General Cannon that can destroy an orc with one shot - nothing else, just power and size!
As the Pathfinder Regiment that possesses the most advanced technology in the entire human empire, the weapons and equipment in their hands are naturally the most advanced, and their power is naturally the most exaggerated.
Three Terminator Space Marines continued to fire at Gilgamesh not far away. The three of them fired the firepower of a battalion, and the flames of the explosion kept rising above its body.
Gilgamesh hardened himself as much as possible to resist the continuous damage, and at the same time released energy bullets and light beams in the direction of the Terminators to fight back.
But all its attacks had no effect. Either they missed the target, or were blocked by the Terminator's spherical energy shield, or there was only smoke but no damage.
If Gilgamesh had a high level of intelligence, he would probably be cursing right now. His long-range firepower was suppressed, and his melee armor was directly stripped. Some parts of his body are about to be ripped bald!
Yes, the [Pathfinder] assault team led by Wu Mo, who broke directly in, was relying on the resistance to supernatural forces they inherited from Zhang Yi, and was forcibly pulling out pieces of impact steel from Gilgamesh's body, and they were getting more and more excited as they pulled (after all, in Wu Mo's eyes, the more pieces they pulled out, the more weapons they could make).
The Space Marines' powerful reaction ability made Gilgamesh's idea of trying to break the situation by trampling them impossible (he would be laughed at for the rest of his life if he was trampled to death). Because of the magnetic shoes, it was unable to drive the two Pathfinder Space Marines off it by shaking its body violently. It could only repeatedly increase the impact steel covering its core to prevent the enemy from attacking its core.
But this is undoubtedly just delaying time. As long as these two Pathfinder Space Marines are still on its back, its core will be exposed to the enemy sooner or later.
At this time, the already tattered Gilgamesh split out several high-speed rotating metal flying discs from its body, and then directly hit the two Pathfinder Space Marines on it, finally driving them off its body.
However, before it could take any other action, one of its legs that was originally covered with heavy impact steel suddenly broke, and it fell to the ground uncontrollably.
"Hey, it's okay to just tear it off." Zhang Yi muttered as he looked at the leg that had a piece of metal missing. "These guys saw the impact steel like they saw their own wife, tearing it off like crazy..."
After finally driving away the two Pathfinder Space Marines, there were now three more. Their supernatural resistance made the fallen Gilgamesh like a lamb to be slaughtered, and he could only allow them to ravage him.
"Brothers, start prying! Pull it clean!"
"Yo!"
Gilgamesh, with a broken leg, could only watch as Wu Mo and his brothers came to his back and prepared to do whatever they wanted to him.
"I can provide a crowbar." Zhang Yi said at this time. "Power crowbar."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A small cargo-type Titan carried the last box of impact steel that had been pried off and returned to a safe place through the portal. The Pathfinder Space Marines armed with promethium flamethrowers burned the twisting roots of the demon tree on the ground to ashes.
"Such a large pile should be enough for research and experiments." Zhang Yi said as he looked at the cargo-type small Titan that entered the portal. "Let me check the time... around seven o'clock, Nero should be here too..."
"Let's set up a temporary camp here. He should need some rest. Then I'll see if there are any more monsters to mess with and any materials to get..."
"Hmm? Did you find Dante and the Spartan Blade?"
. . . . . .
Inside the Demon Tree
Dante, who was knocked away by Yuri a month ago, has been hanging here for a month. Not far from him, the [Spartan Blade], the most commonly used weapon of Sparta, is hiding the existence of this strongest demon hunter.
Yuri was once the existence of Vergil's demonic nature and power. After absorbing a large amount of power from the demon tree, his strength was enough to rule the entire demon world. Even Dante was defeated by him. He slept for a month before being awakened by V with the [Blade of Sparta].
After a considerable number of drones were lost, Zhang Yi and his team successfully found Dante who was still in a coma, and uploaded photos of the corresponding area before other demons destroyed him.
A white portal appeared in mid-air. Zhang Yi slowly stuck his head out and looked around.
The strange-looking demons were dancing wildly on the platform below the [Spartan Blade] (according to V, they wanted to please the [Spartan Blade]), fighting each other, completely unaware that the legendary demon hunter who once made the demons tremble in fear was nearby and was completely defenseless.
The four gods' marks flashing on Zhang Yi's left arm proved that Dante was now completely defenseless and any powerful demon could kill him.
"No wonder V is a little out of control~" Zhang Yi kept the portal open and pointed the professional camera in his hand at Dante hanging on the tree. "I think Virgil will smile for the rest of his life if I give him this photo."
"Don't push! The door is so small, come one by one!"
After successfully obtaining Dante's defeat CG, Zhang Yi took a few more photos of the [Blade of Sparta] plugged into the wall, and after confirming that there was no problem, he returned.
In the original plot, it was V who awakened the comatose Dante. At the same time, after this battle, Dante began to think about the potential role of the broken Rebellion Blade in his hand, and finally used it to activate his [True Demon Form] in his former home mansion, and defeated Yurizen, who belonged to the demonic side of Vergil.
The reason why Zhang Yi didn't try to wake him up in advance was that he was not sure whether his participation would change the plot. For example, Dante did not intend to seek answers but to die together with Yuri. (After all, Dante had been pierced by his own weapon many times before, but this time he began to think about its role, and the experiment was successful.)
Therefore, Zhang Yi decided to let the plot develop according to the original plot, waiting for V to find Dante, wake him up according to the process, and then start the final "brotherly harmony" to avoid accidents.
"Now, we can go find the knight monsters from the fifth generation and get another wave from them, but we have to avoid the thunder knights led by Tracy. Then the people of the Mechanicus want to capture some low-level demons for research, and there is also the issue of the distribution of impact steel..."
Just as Zhang Yi was muttering to himself, a Pathfinder Space Marine ran to his side.
"What's the matter?"
"Nero went to challenge Yurizen."
"Isn't this normal? He challenged his father without knowing his own limitations, and ended up getting beaten up, and then his uncle... Shit!"
Zhang Yi finally realized the problem. According to the original plot, he defeated all the bosses along the way and found Yurizen. After injuring the opponent, he was beaten up. Then, at the critical moment, the real demon Dante came to the rescue.
This is indeed the case according to the original plot, but now Zhang Yi and his team have helped clear out a lot of demons along the way, and also killed Gilgamesh, one of the BOSSes, which means that Nero will take less time to reach Yuri's location.
According to the time in the game, it should be around 12 o'clock when Dante woke up, fought his way to the manor where he originally lived, and then awakened to his [True Demon Form] to save the situation, but it is only eight or nine o'clock now.
This also means that after Dante wakes up, he will not have time to rescue Nero who was defeated by Yuri, and Nero's body may have been cold by then.
"Damn it! I forgot about this question!"
"Where is Nero now?!"
"The last wave of unmanned reconnaissance aircraft we sent out were all shot down. According to previous intelligence, it should take about an hour for him to reach Yuri's location."
"If we share the information with V in advance, can we speed up Dante's progress?"
"In theory, yes, but considering the actual situation, it's hard to say."
"I... I am so screwed!" Zhang Yi said with a headache. "Share the information with Wei immediately, and see if there is any way to slow down Nero's advance. If it doesn't work, I will go there myself."
"I don't think you can stop that showy 'Grandson of Sparta', Boss."
"Then I'll stop the other one!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Bang--!
Nero, who successfully scratched Yuri's palm, was slapped away and fell heavily to the ground.
"Well!"
Just as Zhang Yi expected, their actions against the demons around the demon tree caused Nero's actions to be accelerated, while Dante on the other side was still on the way.
Dante, who was supposed to save the situation in time, was still on his way to his mansion, but Nero was about to collapse.
"Cough cough!" Nero struggled to stand up, but it was obvious that the battle with Yurizen had left him seriously injured, making it difficult for him to move.
"You need to pay the price for your stupid offense!"
A beam of light hit Nero directly, who was kneeling on one knee, and he was no longer able to dodge it.
However, the expected attack did not fall on him. A white portal appeared in the path of the light beam and diverted it completely.
"I'm taking your reckless kid away now, can you please not do anything?"
585. A large number of classic scenes are available
"I'm taking your reckless kid away now, can you please not do anything?"
Yuri was a little surprised, on the one hand because the weak human blocked his attack, and on the other hand because he used a method of crossing that he had never seen before.
"Human... No, you are not human." Yuri looked at Zhang Yi's left arm, where the four gods' marks flashed one after another. "Demon..."
"That's fine if you want to understand it that way." Zhang Yi responded as he stepped back, signaling Nero behind him to run away.
