Warhammer 40 A New Hope

"Their base will definitely be greatly affected, and may even suffer a lot of damage. We can use this to find them or force them out."

"But this will also greatly affect some coastal cities, and countless people may die!" said the military officer. "You can't..."

"Sometimes, you have to be cold-blooded." Zhang Yi interrupted him. "It's a good deal to trade the lives of hundreds of thousands or millions of people for the survival of the entire human race."

"I know it shouldn't be converted this way, but you don't seem to have a better way."

"If there is a better way, then bring it up now. I don't mind trying it if it's feasible."

"If not, then please shut up and don't waste your time."

～～～～～～～～～～～～～

The meeting ended, just as Zhang Yi said, the people present could not think of a better solution and could only angrily agree to Zhang Yi's plan.

When the meeting was about to end, Zhang Yi suddenly stopped Gast, the representative of the Knights Templar, who was about to leave.

As mentioned before, the people of the Knights Templar faction are relatively Buddhist, on the one hand because they need to control their emotions very well when using psychic powers, and on the other hand because of the great enemies in the future.

Those enemies who can beat the elders and make them run around.

Although according to the words of some of the Chosen Ones, the elders defeated the enemy whose true identity is unknown, but considering the elders' current condition, it may not be considered a true victory - they paid a heavy price.

"Do you know who the elder's enemy is?" Zhang Yi asked Gast. "I mean the enemy that forced the elder to flee around the universe."

"...I don't know." Without hiding anything, Gast told what he knew. "We just know that such a being exists, and it is likely to come to Earth after the elders are driven away."

"Besides, all we know is that he/it/she has more powerful psychic powers than the Elder."

"Yeah..."

Zhang Yi then signaled to Gast that he could leave, while he and the sculpture-like imperial guards stayed in the conference room for a long time.

"You tell me..." Zhang Yi asked the imperial guards behind him. "How many people have I killed?"

"Sometimes, you need to be cold-blooded..."

"But I still hope that all the endings can be happy endings..."

"...fucking world..."

The big one is coming～(o?v?)ノ

55. Speed ​​Raid

squeak--!

The huge Space Marine capsule fell from orbit at high speed, and the friction with the air caused its outer shell to turn red.

boom!

The top of the fortress of [The Chosen One] was smashed through, and then the hatch fell down.

Two [Imperial Fists] Space Marines stepped out with guns raised and looked around.

"The landing point is safe, you can land."

Then, there was a sound of breaking air in the sky, and the Red Devil was hovering in the air, and the rappelling rope dropped.

Three soldiers from different factions, the Gray Man Atang and another XCOM soldier with heavy firepower, an XCOM technician carrying an elf, plus the first two Space Marines who entered.

A total of eight people were the participants in this raid mission.

"We need to find the Chosen Assassin's location as quickly as possible." said Mox. "The sooner we find him, the better chance we have of disrupting the elders' plans."

"But I need to shut down the fixed defense weapons outside this fortress first and let the follow-up troops take over here." [Death God] Elena said. "This way we can quickly search and study this place after defeating those alien [Chosen Ones]."

"Then do both things at the same time!"

After a brief communication and confirmation of the target, the team immediately began to act, and this time they needed to be as fast as possible.

In the past few days, various cities have begun large-scale genetic testing. It goes without saying that this is a sign that the elders are about to start the [Incarnation Plan].

The human resistance forces had to hastily end their rest, start gathering their forces, and take all measures to slow down the progress of the [Incarnation Plan] as much as possible.

At this moment, the eight-man team, led by two Space Marines, advanced quickly and soon encountered a patrol force in the first fortress.

Bang bang bang!

Before the other side could react, two Space Marines fired several shots, and the mutant soldier with low defense was hit, leaving only half of his body.

The only remaining heavy MEC robot was about to fight back when it was knocked against the wall by one of the charging Space Marines. The Templar followed closely behind and chopped off his head with a psychic blade.

"continue!"

The fortress guards who had realized the situation quickly interrupted their daily patrols and began to gather together to prepare for the interception. At the same time, the defenders on the periphery also began to rush into the fortress.

Behind a big door, almost all the soldiers inside the fortress gathered here, waiting for the enemy to enter.

At the same time, several heavy military MECs were constantly scanning the wall. After all, those giants in golden armor had a record of breaking through the wall directly.

Ding--

Suddenly, the alien MEC felt that they were being scanned. Based on their records of the enemy's data, they should be nearby.

squeak--!

The door in front of them suddenly opened. All the mutant soldiers became alert and looked at the suddenly opened door.

Afterwards, several grenades were thrown in, but the enemy, who had been prepared, immediately retreated, leaving the explosion range, and fired tentative shots at the gate.

BOOM!

The grenade exploded, but no enemy was hurt, but...

This also successfully attracted their attention, didn't it?

boom!

A big hole was blown out on the side wall by the sudden explosion, and then the [Elf] suspended in the air broke through the smoke and dust stirred up by the explosion and rushed into the enemy's team.

The enemies reacted and turned their guns around, firing at the machine flying towards them, trying to shoot it down.

But because they focused all their attention on the gate at the beginning, it took time to change direction, and the elf was very agile and fast, so all the attacks failed to hit it, causing it to fly into the crowd.

【Large-Scale Capacitor Discharge】

A powerful electric current burst out at the cost of completely destroying a backup battery.

A large number of mutant soldiers were paralyzed under this strong electric current, and MEC robots were paralyzed one after another. Only the strong mutants could barely move their bodies and try to fight back.

At this moment, an XCOM soldier carrying a heavy beam cannon walked out of the smoke, his weapon already preheated.

Squeak—Biubiubius!

The debugged and strengthened beam cannon is more powerful than before. Although its accuracy is not good at this distance, its high firing rate makes up for this shortcoming.

The mutants who were still able to move a little were the focus of special attention. The green beams quickly penetrated their armor and burned their flesh.

On the other side, the soldiers from the gate also launched an attack. [Scrapper] Mox shot the hook on his arm at a mutant captain who was still paralyzed, then flew towards the enemy and fired continuously at other people in the air.

Several mutant soldiers who were still unable to move fell to the ground, and the captain was knocked to the ground by Mox, and the skull-opening blade then pierced his jaw.

Tear it apart!

As a sniper, [Death] Elena would not miss the opportunity to hit a fixed live target. She fired continuously at the paralyzed enemies and killed them one by one.

A mutant soldier was hit right in the forehead and his helmet was blown off. The [Templar] Quarles leaped past his fallen body and stretched out the purple psychic blade on his arm, stabbing at the two paralyzed MEC robots.

Bang! (×2)

The two MECs were knocked to the ground, and Quills immediately turned around and slashed, killing the last living mutant nearby.

The entire battle lasted less than three minutes and the interception force was completely wiped out.

On the other side, an alien squad guarding the fortress's solid weapon control console was wiped out in the control room by two Imperial Fists Space Marines who were divided into two groups.

The Viper Monster that was broken in the middle was thrown aside. One of the Space Marines had come to the console, took out the servo skull he was carrying, and tried to use the console here to shut down the peripheral weapons.

Soon after, the code was cracked and two Space Marines successfully gained temporary partial control of the fortress and disabled the stationary weapons on the perimeter.

"The peripheral weapons systems have been shut down. Now we..."

Another Space Marine suddenly signaled his talking teammates to be quiet, and then looked towards the empty control room.

The Space Marine also realized something. He turned off the light screen in front of him, stood back to back with his teammates, and looked around.

"【The Chosen One】..."

Snapped

The barely detectable sound was caught by two Space Marines with superhuman hearing, and they immediately pulled the trigger towards the source of the sound.

Bang bang bang bang!

Bolter bullets propelled forward by micro-rocket fired, raising dust from the ground and eventually exploding on the alien alloy wall.

And through the flying dust they could clearly see a tall and thin figure dodging their attacks nimbly.

boom!

A dark red light shot out of the air and attacked the Space Marines. The two of them immediately ducked out of the way and the enemy's attack hit the console.

It's sizzling!

A big hole was punched in the console, the circuit was destroyed, and the lights in the control room flickered for a while and then went out.

"Darkness is my home ground~"

In the dim room, two [Imperial Fists] Space Marines found their teammates at the same time and stood back to back again.

The situation is not optimistic, but it is not a big problem either.

Judging from the reports collected previously, the various stats and combat style of this [Chosen One] are similar to those of an ordinary Eldar [Howling Banshee], or even weaker.

Although the opponent now has the initiative and environmental advantages, the opponent's attack cannot pose much threat to them.

The darkness is extremely quiet, yet full of danger.

The two Space Marines concentrated, listened to every movement around them, and were ready to attack at any time.

And at this moment, purple-black ripples like ocean waves flashed in the darkness.

【Wave Diffraction】

call out!

The purple-black waves rushed towards the two Space Marines, and in response, one of the Space Marines pushed his teammate away.

boom!

The Space Marine who did not dodge was hit directly by the 'wave', the weapon in his hand was knocked away, and he became dazed.

Seeing this, the Chosen Assassin naturally would not give up this opportunity. She rushed straight to the Space Marine and stabbed towards his chest with the sharp blade in her hand.

Snapped!

However, the expected scene of the sharp blade in his hand piercing the opponent's armor and heart did not appear - the Space Marine who was originally in a dizzy state suddenly grabbed the blade he had stabbed out.

"How can...?"

boom!

"Emperor's blessing, alien species!"

A headbutt from the giant in front of her interrupted her words, and then the Space Marine next to her fired three shots at her head.

Click it

And just when the bullet was about to hit her, he forcibly twisted his held hand, causing it to be completely dislocated and then fractured. At the same time, he turned his body over, avoiding two fatal bullets, and let the last bullet hit his chest.

call out--!

A purple beam of light rose up, representing teleportation, and the Chosen Assassin was teleported away.

For this [Chosen One], even though he was hit by a bomb at such a distance, he would die no matter where he was hit.

But for them, as long as their heads are still there, they still have a chance to survive. As long as they are alive, they have a chance to get back at their former self.

Watching the Chosen Assassin escape, the Space Marines just quietly picked up their weapons and walked towards the gathering place.

The mission is not over yet.
