Warhammer 40 A New Hope

Those Necron towers that were very obvious from the perspective of the universe suddenly emitted a green light. The Necron warriors who were originally standing guard or patrolling like sculptures suddenly took action, driving those who were still active on the ground to safe indoor or underground facilities.

In the high-altitude orbit of the Shubuzi world, a fleet of Necron fleets suddenly took action. They gathered together and adjusted the intensity of the sensors on their ships to maximum.

Shortly after the Necrons took action, a bright black beam of light came from a distance and rushed straight to the surface of the planet Shubuzi.

The light beam was so fast that the Necron ships that had assembled in advance did not have time to intercept it. Green lightning appeared on several Necron spires where the light beam fell, followed by a green prismatic barrier.

Buzz－－!

The incoming black beams of light directly hit the energy barrier formed by the Necromancer spires. At once a large amount of two-colored energy scattered in all directions. From the ground, one could see that the sky and clouds were dyed in strange colors.

Snap--!

After the two sides had been in a stalemate for dozens of seconds, there was a crisp shattering sound. Before the planetary shield with the highest power modulation could be broken, the black beam of light coming from deep space directly hit the surface of Shubusi's planet.

boom--!

The black shock wave spread out after it fell to the ground, just like the situation when those first generation of tree-less humans came to challenge the Twin Gods because of Seren's deception, and then were exterminated by the Dark God with one blow. The only difference was that this time all human creatures were exterminated, and only cold rocks were left in the places affected by the black shock.

The residents of the newly built New Beacon City had no time to react before they were swallowed up by the black shock wave. The entire city was turned into a deserted ghost town in an instant.

The undead spire standing nearby emitted green light again, and a semicircular barrier appeared, preventing the black shock wave from spreading further.

The impact lasted for several minutes before it dissipated. At the center of the black beam of light, a giant western dragon made of black energy appeared and howled towards the sky.

roar--!

Soon after the black dragon appeared, an entire army of Necron warriors teleported into the closed semicircular energy field, while dozens of Necron warriors blocked the sky.

"You destroyed my favorite human city, Reptile!"

[Your city? I built this planet! You occupied it by force!] The Dark God in dragon form roared. [You actually said this is your city?!]

"Since you destroyed the first generation of humans on this planet, you have never returned to this planet. Once you came back, you tried to destroy everything on this planet..." Shalet said to the dragon in front of him. "How dare you say this is your planet?!"

[We built this place! We can do whatever we want with it! I am free to destroy it if I want!]

"Arrogant creature!" Shalett's tone was also filled with anger. "I will make you pay the price!"

[Who do you think you are? A lifeless metal puppet!]

The battle between the two sides was about to break out at this moment, and on the body of the Dark God who had finally returned, several blue feathers looked particularly strange.

. . . . . .

Black energy flames raged on the battlefield, melting a large group of Necron warriors into liquid metal on the ground. Green lightning hit the dragon's body but seemed to have no effect.

The even larger Necron [Destroyer] launched a flank attack on the target in squads, but with a flick of its tail, several [Destroyer] squads that could easily penetrate the defenses of the Human Empire's Astra Militarum were knocked away.

An entire team of [Tomb Scythes] swept through the air, releasing destructive green beams at the dragon on the ground, suppressing his actions.

The Necrons have an absolute advantage in numbers and size. Although it seems that the series of attacks launched by the dark god in dragon form have no obvious effect, Shalet, as the commander, does not seem to be in a hurry.

At this time, the Dark God who had been besieged let out a roar, and a large amount of black sticky substance dripped from his body to the ground, and a group of ferocious beasts appeared on the ground.

The battle with the Dark God turned into a legion battle from now on. Groups of killing beasts fell from the Dark God's body and collided with the attacking Necron legions. Roaring sounds and green beams of light continued to appear.

"The target's energy index is decreasing." A tomb technician said while looking at the light screen in front of him. "Even when there is no loss, the energy index in his body is not as good as the weakest Star God we have seen."

"Where's the other one?"

"We haven't detected the corresponding energy form yet, but it should be nearby." The grave technician responded. "From the perspective of... family affection, the other one will not sit idly by."

"This is still within our expectations." Shalett said. "Activate the Hypercube Vault and bring our new weapon to its cell."

"Your will."

633. The former God-killer

In the world of Shubusi, Tzeentch once projected a trace of power into this world, and worked under Seren while hiding his identity, and planned the even more tragic "Siege of the Cold Wind Kingdom".

Afterwards, knowing the arrival of the Necrons, he sold out Seren without hesitation, and then plunged into the [Fountain of Annihilation] belonging to the Dark God, and has not been heard from since.

After the Necrons were stationed in this world, they had explored the ink-black water of the Fountain of Annihilation many times. This magical existence, which could produce beast-killing power and contained many negative emotions, was a magical existence. But even so, they could not find any trace of Tzeentch. They could only surround the Fountain of Annihilation to prevent any existence from entering or leaving.

The power of Tzeentch, which was originally parasitic on a slayer beast, confirmed after a period of activity that if it continued to act in this form (slayer beast), it would sooner or later be assimilated and then influenced and controlled by the Dark God. That was why he chose to directly plunge into the [Fountain of Annihilation], ready to play big.

With only a trace of strength, it is impossible for it to defeat the Dark God who has the advantage of home field and power. However, from his understanding of this world, he is sure of one thing - the Dark God has a relatively bad temper.

Perhaps because he represents a negative existence, the Dark God easily gets angry when he disagrees with something, just like when Seren deceived him and his brother came to him. If the God of Light had not explained in time, he might have directly fought with his brother.

What Tzeentch needs to do is to influence the Dark God's thinking through his connection with him before he is completely affected and assimilated by the many negative emotions in the Fountain of Annihilation.

Yes, it is impossible for him to control this god from another world now, but he can influence his decisions and thinking, making him more impulsive and irritable.

This was originally a dark chess move by Tzeentch, and it was the kind of dark chess move that was likely to be of no use. After all, he himself didn't know whether he would come to this world again, but...

Now it seems to be working.

～～～～～～～～～～～～～

The World Tree created the twin gods, and these two gods also spent a good time in the world where the World Tree was located - Ever After.

During this time, the two gods learned from their mother and creator, the World Tree, and created various different beings. A considerable number of these beings are still active in the world where the World Tree is.

Gradually, that world could no longer withstand their repeated creative experiments (as well as the quarrels and fights caused by their different opinions on creation), so the World Tree opened a door to other worlds, allowing the Gemini Gods to go to a wider world to conduct their experiments and studies.

This was not exile, as their mother, the World Tree had always kept the door open and would always welcome the children back.

At some point later, the World Tree, which had never actively contacted the Twin Gods, suddenly sent them a message in other worlds: Don't go back to the World of the Tree, as great danger is there.

The Gemini Gods were very surprised when they received this news, because they had never received any information from the World Tree before.

After receiving the message, the Dark God wanted to go back to the Shubusi world to find out what was going on, but his brother, the Light God, stopped his impulsive brother, because the fact that their creator could personally send a warning message meant that this so-called "danger" was very likely something they could not handle.

During the time when the God of Light was away from the world of Shubuzi, he also thought about whether their creations really needed them in the future and whether they really should live with the humans of Shubuzi.

After all, the root of Seren's problem is that they have a powerful force that gave her hope, but refused to help her.

Therefore, he persuaded his brothers to give up the Shubuzi world. There was no need for him to make enemies with other unknown existences because of a "petri dish". Besides, there was more than one world under his command. The Dark God agreed superficially at that time.

However, to his surprise, one day his brother actually went to the Shubuzi world alone to carry out the so-called "punishment" - he wanted to destroy all the humans in the Shubuzi world and all life there, just like last time.

. . . . . .

The Necrons' attacks continued, and many Necron troops that had been destroyed by the Dark Gods once again participated in the battle after emergency repairs.

Perhaps the Dark God has not seemed injured from the beginning to now, but his physical strength is getting less and less.

Most of the Slaughter Beasts he created were simply unable to compete with the Necrons' forces. The battle between them was completely one-sided. The existence of the Slaughter Beasts could only help him attract some firepower.

It was not like the Dark God had not thought about using a large-scale attack to directly destroy the troops attacking him. He had been trying to do so, but always felt powerless - for some reason, his strength was decreasing.

roar--!

With one of his roars, a black shock spread out, but it dissipated after annihilating the surrounding Necron troops.

"My power...how could it be..."

At this moment, the Dark God looked at the undead spire in the distance where green electricity was pulsating.

“I just realized it now.

, as a so-called god, your perception is really slow. "Shalek looked at the dark god who seemed to have reacted and said. "But it doesn't matter, I've had enough fun."

Several huge [Tomb Stalkers] broke out of the ground and wrapped around the body of the Dark God like a spirit snake, temporarily suppressing his movements.

Then, four green lights appeared from around the Dark God, and a huge black stone pyramid appeared. Then green electric currents shot out towards the Dark God in dragon form.

The Dark God who was hit by the green lightning roared in pain for the first time. At this time, other Necron troops also fired at the shrinking Western Dragon to speed up his shrinking.

Soon, this powerful god who once destroyed the entire Shubusi world could not even maintain his dragon form. He turned into a tall humanoid being and lay on the ground.

"You win! Soulless metal monsters!" The Dark God roared arrogantly even though he was defeated. "Come and take my life!"

"'Come and take my life'?" Shalek repeated his words. "We have killed our own gods..."

"?!"

"We knew what the consequences would be, so we changed our approach."

Shalek walked up to the Dark God, who was weakened by the continuous extraction of energy, and motioned for him to look up and see the huge black existence in the orbit of the Shubusi world.

"We broke them into pieces, then imprisoned them separately, endlessly draining their power, turning them into... tools in our hands~"

"That's for you and your brother."

"We are 'very grateful' that this world you created can help us a lot, so..."

"I will make your cage as 'comfortable' as possible."

After that, a unique huge black and green building appeared and expanded above the head of the Dark God. An invisible force attracted the weakened Dark God and slowly dragged him into the building.

The Dark God began to fear and struggled to escape, but he was too weakened to do so.

"Help me! Brother!"

A golden light appeared outside the barrier covering the Dark God and others, and then it turned into a dragon, rushing towards the nearest black stone spire and destroying it in an instant.

The Blackrock Spire was destroyed, and the process of containing the Dark God came to a halt. At this moment, the golden light quickly attacked the Dark God.

boom--!

The [Hypercube Vault] that could contain the fragments of the Star God was shattered in an instant, and the golden light rushed into the sky with the weakened Dark God, but the next second the green barrier that had trapped the Dark God before reappeared.

And this time, it enveloped the entire planet.

"You hid yourself in the life you created, which made it impossible for us to find you before." Shalek looked at the God of Light in the image of an Eastern dragon and said. "Impressive ability, so..."

"We will study you carefully later."

Ding--buzz!

The world seemed to have a frame removed from a movie. There was nothing in the universe the previous moment, but the next moment a dark green sphere the size of a planet appeared nearby, and a large number of Necron ships also appeared.

【World Engine】

At this moment, the twin gods realized what kind of existence this so-called enemy who had usurped their throne was. They also knew why the World Tree, which had never contacted them before, suddenly sent them a message asking them not to return to the Tree-less World.

It's not just because they saw a weapon as big as a planet, but also because at the center of this weapon, they felt the breath of an existence similar to themselves (fragments of the Star God) - they (the Necrons) really have the ability to use gods as tools/energy!

"Seal off the surrounding space and activate the [Blackstone Prison]."

"Catch them."

The Black Time Spires located all over the world of Shubuzi began to emit green light as if they had received an order, and then dozens of green lightning bolts struck the twin gods.

Just as the God of Light who came to rescue was about to follow in his brother's footsteps, a gentle energy suddenly appeared, wrapping up the two of them and resisting the attack from Blackrock Spire.

"kindness?"

The sudden change made Shalek feel a little surprised, and then a door appeared out of thin air, and the twin gods disappeared into the door afterwards.

"...World Tree..." Shalek murmured as he watched the dissipating gate and the twin gods disappearing into it. "We, have caught you!"

. . . . . .

The towering tree was right before their eyes. The twin gods, who had returned to their hometown once again, looked at everything in front of them with an indescribable feeling in their hearts.

It’s not that they didn’t think about coming back here again, but they didn’t expect that they would come back to escape.

【Take a good rest】

[They can’t find it for now]

The voice of the World Tree rang in their ears, and the twin gods breathed a sigh of relief at this moment.

However, they did not see a blue feather falling from the Dark God's body and floating towards the deeper depths.

634. Blacksmith

"So, the twin gods suddenly came to kill us." Zhang Yi looked at Shalai in front of him.

Ke said, "You beat him away?"

"To be precise, it was the World Tree that saved them." Shalek said as he savored the dessert in front of him, but his highly realistic face showed his displeasure. "The New Beacon City and the surrounding area for several kilometers are gone. It has become a lifeless wasteland, and the situation is spreading to the surrounding areas."

"At the same time, a large number of slayers appeared as the land became barren. The power of the Dark God was destroying the planet."

"We have spent some time dealing with this problem and have contained its further spread, but it will take some time to completely deal with it."

"Hmm... I can see that you are very angry." Zhang Yi said to the [Silent King] in front of him. "Are you planning to go and chop down trees?"

"We have seen the so-called gods." Shalet said. "We know that kind of existence..."

"Energy that exceeds that of an entire star, an incomprehensible form of existence, and means that directly act on the level of rules..."
