Warhammer: This Galen's Heart of Steel

Chapter 12: Nurgle's Virus and the Rampant Zombies

After understanding the whole story, Garen prepared to pull back this anti-warp weapon. He had already thought of where the Colossus could be used.

As we all know, the biggest cause of the Empire's destruction was Magnus, the Primarch of the Fifteenth Legion of the Thousand Sons.

Magnus is the most powerful psychic among the Emperor's children. He is also a problem child. The Emperor has repeatedly warned him not to study the Warp anymore, but although this naughty child agreed with the Emperor on the surface, Magnus, who loves learning, did not listen to the Emperor's teachings in private.

He had long been fascinated by the bizarre power within the warp and the psychic knowledge contained therein.

Until the fourth year of the thirty-first millennium, Magnus was still studying the Warp as usual, and then he saw the scene of his good brother, the Primarch Horus being corrupted by the Chaos God.

After failing to persuade his elder brother to mend his ways, the loyal Magnus made a psychic call to the Emperor as quickly as possible, reporting the incident to his old father, commonly known as telling tales.

This powerful spell using the power of the Warp directly pierced through the psychic barrier set up by the Emperor. At this point, the Emperor's Webway plan failed, and the Emperor himself had to sit on the golden toilet to suppress the huge Warp rift that might form behind the palace.

How filial you are.

Galen decided that placing this colossus in the Emperor's palace as a decoration might help stop Magnus's terrifying psychic spell.

As for why not just tell the Emperor to be careful of Magnus's psychic call?

Galen: Old man Huang, in the fourth year of the thirty-first millennium, be careful of the psychic call from my good brother Magnus. He will blow up your phone lines and the entire empire will be destroyed.

Emperor: Garen, my good son, you are the one I favor most among the twenty Primarch brothers. I never expected that you would be the first to betray me and join Tzeentch.

And then, nothing happened. He would definitely be stabbed into a Garen-like shape by the Emperor's great sword.

"Take this statue back, don't tell anyone, take it directly back to my manor, I want to keep it well."

Galen ordered.

The loyal Maxim answered immediately without even asking why.

The fearless pioneers began the intensive excavation and transportation work. At this time, a bad news came from Garen's communication equipment.

"Demacia is being invaded by a large-scale demon. Requesting support! Requesting support! Ah——!"

"Hey, soldier, answer me soldier!" Galen shouted angrily, hoping that the communications personnel stationed in the capital could convey more information to him, but it was in vain.

The cruel sounds gradually faded, and the sound of flesh and bones being worn away stimulated the nerves of every fearless pioneer present. They stared at their legion commander, waiting for orders.

"Everyone cancel your rest and rush to Demacia to help!"

Demacia.

"Roar--!"

Terrifying sound waves swept across the sky, shattering everything around it. Air waves gushed out violently, instantly creating a devastating super storm in Demacia.

The dark red clouds in the sky exploded and spread out in all directions like waves, leaving behind an extremely huge circular hole.

Below the hole is the solemn and dignified House of Representatives. Today, that magnificent iconic building has become a devil's lair, breeding countless horrific creatures carrying infectious viral factors.

At the very top of the building, the hemispherical roof with a statue of the founding leader was ripped open and occupied by a huge, rotten, two-headed monster with holes in its skin that kept spewing poisonous spores, like a human skull. It was the source of the disaster.

Demon hunter Mia looked at the terrifying figure with despair in her heart. Not long ago, Chief Judge McCarthy led the most elite demon hunter troops to attack the monster.

The Demon Hunters' sophisticated and powerful weapons bombarded the monster, blasting huge blood holes. However, it was all in vain. The monster used its huge tentacles to roll up the citizens in the nest who were infected by the virus spores but had not yet turned into corpses, swallowed them whole, and the injuries were healed in an instant.

Fresh life is the best tonic for the devil.

Judge McCarthy and a group of demon hunters died on the spot. The brave and fearless warriors were infected by the virus and became the devil's minions, poisoning other innocent people.

Clang——Clang——Clang——

In the narrow corridor behind the iron gate, the zombies roared and waved their claws wildly. The screws fastened into the concrete were pushed out little by little by the zombies, and it seemed that they were about to collapse. Mia's hand holding the gun kept shaking, and she hesitated to pull the trigger, but it was not because of fear, but because there were many familiar faces in the zombie group, all of them were fellow demon hunters, and she could not shoot at these respectable people no matter what.

boom!
The golden bullets shot out from the muzzle of the gun, and after a burst of rapid shooting, the completely dead zombies became the best roadblocks.

"What the hell are you doing! How dare you shoot at your former comrades! Some of them saved our lives!"

Mia collapsed and yelled at the captain.

"They are no longer human beings. If you really respect them, let their souls rest in peace!"

Captain Rand scolded.

He has always been against recruiting female members, as their emotional way of thinking would suppress rationality at certain important moments, leading to some unpredictable consequences.

Lant turned and looked at the other two teammates, who were working hard to repair the communication equipment so as to contact the Fearless Vanguard Corps on an expedition outside to return for support as soon as possible.

"how is the situation?"

"Give me some more time." The soldier was sweating profusely.

Lant looked at the sky worriedly. There was a faint red halo. It was the psychic barrier released by the two-headed demon occupying the center of the city, specifically targeting Demacia's communication frequency band.

Except for a few high-ranking officials, no one else would know the spectrum of the communication frequency band. Could it be that the high-ranking officials of Demacia had been infiltrated long ago?

Rand is unknown.

"pass!"

outside the city.

Reinforcements have arrived.

"No, even the Wolf Spider heavy artillery is ineffective against this psychic barrier." Maxim punched the ground angrily.

"I'll try."

Galen came over with his broadsword. On his way back, he had already started upgrading his weapon. Just now, despite the lack of experimental equipment, he had completed the initial transformation with the original body's superb wisdom and technology.

"Crippling blow!"

The Primarch slashed the barrier with a sword as heavy as a mountain, and the power that disrupted the connection between the subspace radiated from the blade like ripples. The barrier in front of him trembled noticeably, and the power dissipated like ripples.

“It’s not that it’s unbreakable, it’s just that our firepower is not strong enough.

If we focus all our weapons on one spot, we may have a chance to destroy this barrier."

Jarvan said, stroking the barrier ripples.

Galen shook his head: "We don't have that much time. You are more familiar with psychic energy than I am. Is there any other way?"

Jarvan nodded: "I need a powerful psychic to work with me to apply pressure from both inside and outside. The disturbed psychic frequency may be able to shatter the barrier."

Just like high frequency vibrations can destroy solid bulletproof glass.

"We need to make contact with the survivors in the city."

Garen ordered the communications personnel to do it, and the plan of continuing to bombard the psychic barrier with heavy firepower did not stop.

"There's a signal!"

A fearless pioneer said excitedly.
