Chapter 617: A Rich Harvest, the War Between the Left and the Right
“Puff! Puff!”
The Death Mark fell straight from the sky like rain.
?
Seeing this strange situation, Artemis and a group of servants were puzzled.
Then, some servants took care of the injured and unconscious companions, dozens of them continued to be on guard, and then four servants were assigned to accompany Artemis to check.
Approaching.
“Protocol… error… cannot be corrected…”
Then the Death Mark was heard mumbling something in a metallic tone, and its body was extremely twisted, like a creature twitching at the brink of death.
? ?
What’s going on?
Did these guys fall into a logical error?
Forget it.
Artemis was too lazy to continue thinking about the reason behind this, so he walked forward, raised his left foot and stepped on the Death Mark.
Crack!
The metal chest was directly crushed, and the limbs and head broke and scattered.
"Deal with the remaining Death Marks, so that these teleporting creatures won't return to normal."
"Follow the order of the Goddess of Hunting."
"Clang! Clang!"
As the order was issued, the four servants began to efficiently fire at all the Death Marks.
After solving the threat in this block and rescuing and evacuating all the captives, the group of "Gods" continued to move forward, preparing to meet up with the Third Assault Company of the 2nd Battalion of the Raven Guard, and then head to the tomb of the dead spirits that used humans for experiments before, to rescue more captured compatriots.
Little did they know that it was not only the dead spirits in this area that were "down", but the entire metropolitan area and even the entire Morning Star that encountered a similar situation.
As for the source of all this, it was actually caused by the Plague Doctor and Trazyn.
——
…
Not long ago.
The inner world of the Emperor's Shadow.
The central lawn of the base complex.
Swish!
A blue light ball representing teleportation was generated out of thin air.
After the light ball dissipated, Corax, who was dressed in black, brought Zelas and six seriously injured reservists to this place.
And the moment they saw the return of the original body, the pharmacists who had been waiting here for a long time and painted white power armor immediately stepped forward to rescue the six little brothers lying on the grass.
"This injury is serious and needs to be amputated on the spot to prevent the remaining tissue from necrosis."
One of the pharmacists who was squatting immediately unfolded the electric bone saw on his right arm, and a syringe filled with green transparent liquid was extended from the periphery of his left arm.
Then, the pharmacist first inserted the needle through the corner of the reservist's eye and injected a medical nanorobot with stronger power, higher efficiency and "attack power", and then...
"Buzz~!!!"
The noise of the chain spinning rapidly resounded over the lawn.
The electric bone saw... To be honest, it is actually a medical device with a decomposition position and a cost that is more expensive than the battalion-level chainsaw sword...
Theoretically, they can go into battle and kill the enemy, but the pharmacists are reluctant to use their "treasure tools" to kill the bloody aliens and heretics.
The electric bone saw, under the control of the pharmacist, gradually approached the left forearm of the reserve, approaching... approaching...
Swish!
The sharp chain easily cuts the skin, flesh and even bones.
And at the moment of cutting, the medical nanorobots injected earlier, in cooperation with the original robots in the reserve's body to remove the "outsiders", also immediately completed the scab and hemostasis, and new flesh has even begun to grow.
The reason why the pharmacist wanted to amputate the little brother in front of him was that he found that the undead nanoworms had already corroded his left arm, and the little brother suffered serious injuries, so he had to "abandon the car to save the general".
However, amputation is only temporary. First stabilize the physical condition of the little brother in front of him, and then the pharmacist stood up, released the gravity stand, and steadily carried and transferred the reserve to the professional medical room.
When the time comes, put it in the Astartes' exclusive medical cabin, and it won't take long for the "brand new" left arm to grow out again.
And Corax?
After handing the wounded to the pharmacist, the Primarch opened the teleport again and flashed back to the Plague Doctor's laboratory.
"Ah~! As expected of you, kid, you have been reliable since you were young! Quick! Bring that patient to the stage! I can't wait!"
As soon as he returned to the laboratory, Corax heard the Plague Doctor's unique voice and the impatient words he said.
The Plague Doctor, wearing a white medical gown and white gloves, was patting the operating table quickly, signaling Corax to put the remaining part of Zeras on it quickly.
Not only the Plague Doctor, and the "Oil Man"-like technicians, but also the metal skeleton-like Trazyn put on white medical gowns, even white gloves, and even masks, exposing only the empty eyes emitting faint green light.
What made the Primarch speechless was that Trazyn and the Plague Doctor stood opposite each other, clapping their hands to signal Corax to hurry up.
"."
Seeing this, Corax felt a headache.
Having a Plague Doctor was already "troublesome" enough, but who knew that the new Undead Overlord was simply a "metal version" of the Plague Doctor.
This always gave him a sense of déjà vu when he was taking care of the elders at home, and the elders brought a partner with a very different personality and said, "My child! Your daily life will be left to you these days!"
"."
Corax sighed calmly, and then without saying anything more, he slowly stepped forward and placed the remaining half of Zerath on the operating table.
At the same time, after confirming that the special confinement stance was released by the operating table, Corax released the stasis stance released by his armor, and then continued to "watch the show" away from the operating table.
?
From stasis to imprisonment, Xerath instantly regained consciousness.
One moment it was clearly in its exclusive secret room, and the next moment it was in a brightly lit and tidy human laboratory. Most importantly, it was surrounded by a bunch of strange guys!
What a shame!
Xerath was furious, but the situation in front of him allowed his thinking logic to deduce the best response, which was to run.
However, when Xerath wanted to escape from this useless metal body, he found that it was impossible. It was like there were countless firewalls blocking all network channels...
It can’t be human empire technology at all!
During the time when the Tomb was resurrected and took control of the sky and orbit of Daystar, Xerath had fought against battalion-level artificial intelligence.
As a result, Xerath easily defeated it, allowing it to completely disrupt the human communications of Daystar.
wrong…
From the very beginning, Corax was able to release the stasis stance of Necron technology and bring it here, indicating that there was a traitor among the Necrons.
"Hey, stop thinking about something with your brain that wants to be a god...Oh, no, that's not a brain, it should be a logic program. My bad, my bad."
?
Hearing this familiar tone and tone, Xerath's logic fell into a certain confusion, and then he noticed that there was a guy in the crowd watching it...
It's the guy it hates.
"Tarrazin the Endless..." Xerath's head twitched, and fireworks and smoke popped out of the gap. It seemed that even if he abandoned his body and lost his soul, the undead overlord still felt extremely angry and said:
"Why do you want to betray?!"
"Betrayal?" Trazin pulled off the mask, "Without your help and your selfish desire to become a god, I should have rested long ago. How could I go everywhere to make up for the endless coldness and emptiness? thing."
"Oh, you are all on my way to becoming a god..."
"Shut up about whether you are a god or not." The plague doctor, who had been impatient for a long time, interrupted Xerath's arrogant words, and then took out a small bone saw and huge scissors from the black bag, while signaling to the technicians road:
"Quickly, take that thing out. If you don't use it, it will expire."
"Yes, doctor."
After receiving the signal, several technicians left first, but soon pushed the refrigerator with the anti-gravity device installed at the base and returned to the operating table.
A technician unlocked it.
With a "Q~" sound, the cover moved up, and the cold air began to condense into tiny water droplets when exposed to normal temperature, leaking out through the gaps to the surroundings like white mist.
After the technicians completely removed the cover, everyone finally saw clearly that what was placed inside the refrigerator was a body...
To be precise, it is an artificial body of a humanoid creature without any consciousness or soul.
The figure is extremely thin, rickety, and has no obvious nose bridge. It does not conform to the aesthetics of humans or the Vaelin tribe at all. It is comparable to the Titanium Pu aliens that were exterminated by the coalition government more than a hundred years ago.
In fact, the technicians accompanying the Raven Guard obtained intelligence through reverse engineering of several undead tombs that they had destroyed, and at the same time, they also obtained some genetic information of the Necrontyr.
Even though the Necrons knew that their bodies had been annihilated tens of millions of years ago, many nobles and high-ranking officials still had selfish motives and stored detailed information about their bodies in the hope that one day they could regain their bodies.
The Necrons and the Human Empire are both the physical ceiling of the physical universe, but both sides have their own areas of expertise. If there is a single round of biotechnology, the Human Empire is confident that it will surpass the vast majority, or even the entire universe.
After all, the predecessor of the Human Empire was Umbrella who specialized in "playing" with viruses and created the G gland.
After countless tens of thousands of years passed, the undead tombs and dynasties that were "visited" by the Raven Guard lost complete genetic information. However, the accompanying technicians still used this information to successfully cultivate an unconscious, soulless body. of necrophobes.
That's the one in the cooler.
"Ah...it's really...haha..." Seeing this body, Trazin couldn't help but sigh.
Although "it"'s memory storage function is intact, the appearance of "it" in life has long been blurred or even "forgotten".
When seeing the Necrontyr again, Trazin always has an indescribable "emotion"?
"It" cannot be expressed accurately, but "it" is a metaphor for human understanding, just like a person who had an accident and died during surgery, but his soul is standing next to his own body.
Of course, Trazin did not blame the human side for trying to cultivate the Necrontyr. After all, "it" also hoped to die with the help of human technology and plague doctors.
Immediately afterwards, the Plague Doctor and Trazin raised their hands in unison.
One is responsible for trying to transfer Xerath's "consciousness" to the body of the Necrontyr through his own special ability, and the other is using necromancy technology to assist, and then uses Xerath as a terminal to send messages to everyone on the Morning Star. The undead issued various strange instructions, which then caused the undead to fall into confusion.
The most "eye-catching" thing is that the two of them also laughed "hehehehe" at the same time.
? ? ? ?
"What are you going to do to me??!!" Xerath roared angrily.
But becoming a metal mummy like a human stick, coupled with the confinement force field of necromantic technology, Xerath had nowhere to hide, and could only watch as the bone saw, scissors and metal arms approached it.
Then…
Hey! ! !
Click... click...! !
Bang! Poof!
There was a strange sound in the laboratory.
"."
Looking at the scene in front of him, even Corax felt a chill down his spine, and then turned around and left the laboratory, leaving the two strange "old men" to fiddle with.
Afterwards, Corax returned to the central control room through teleportation and continued to command the troops to resolve the crisis in the Morning Star.
——
…
When the supreme ruler of the Necron Dynasty on Morning Star, Xerath, became a human prisoner, and cooperated with the wrong instructions implanted by Trazin, the Necron side fell directly into chaos.
The originally anxious situation was reversed in an instant.
Without unified command and wrong instructions, the lords did not know what to do.
Therefore, the Raven Guard fleet, which had the Shield World as its flagship, could be said to have extremely easily disintegrated the Necron fleet, wiping out nearly 90% of them.
The remaining 10% were selfish lords who chose to lead their troops to escape from the space domain in order to preserve their strength. At this point, control of Venus's low-Earth orbit returned to human hands.
As for ground combat, it is also extremely easy.
The ground forces, which originally lacked air and orbital support and fought independently, did not encounter much resistance at all. Most of the undead fell into chaotic convulsions like the death marks that ambush Artemis and the servants of the gods.
Seeing this scene, the imperial troops, who were suppressing their emotions, and the civilians with their own armed forces immediately prepared to retake their homes and began to counterattack with lightning speed.
Those undead armies and tombs commanded by lords can still operate normally, but in the face of humans who have air supremacy and orbital control, the final result can only be "forcibly scrapped."
It took a total of four days from the time the Morning Star was resurrected by the Undead Tomb, to the main support of the Raven Guard, and then to the complete stabilization of the situation.
Four days may seem slow, but Daystar is one of the economic centers of Universe 03 after all, so the Raven Guard didn't use the railgun much. Otherwise, while annihilating the undead, the shelling would destroy all the infrastructure, and the gain would outweigh the loss. .
The Battle of Morning Star is considered a normal event in the current Universe 03. The only thing that is not normal is the participation of the original body and the shield world.
But as the primarch who commanded the Battle of Morning Star, Corax received far more "trophies" than usual.
First of all, there is a large amount of necromancy technology, such as five-dimensional space teleportation, or time stagnation, etc. The harvest is quite fruitful, but it is not enough to affect the entire expedition pattern.
In fact, what can really influence the victory of the war is that Corax has obtained a lot of key information.
For example, the Brilliant Star Chart…
