Warhammer 30k and the Great Tomb of Nazarick

Chapter 89: Battelle's Guerrilla Warfare: Destroying the Ranch

The first to arrive at the basement were a few low-level demons with horns on their heads. They were easily killed by Bartel, and then he and Remedios began to break out.

"Wait a minute, I know a place... There are a lot of magic scrolls..."

Bartel didn't know what this magic scroll was, so he asked as he moved, "What is that?"

"A tool that can use magic."

Remedios was surprised that Bartel didn't even know about the magic scroll, but she still gave an explanation. She is no longer the impatient leader of the Paladins.

Remedios has now learned to be patient and understands how to make the best use of everything around her.

During the time she was imprisoned, Remedios had already realized that this hellhole was where the Great Tomb of Nazarick was used to peel off human skins and make magic scrolls.

Demiurge even took her personally to the place where the scrolls were made, allowing her to see with her own eyes how a baby was made into a magic scroll.

If possible, Remedios did not want to use these blasphemous and cruel scrolls, but the most important thing now was to pass on the information.

Just like she couldn't be sure whether Bartel was another bad joke from Demiurge, but she had to catch it, she had no more choice.

May the Holy Queen's spirit in heaven bless you.

Remedios prayed silently in her heart.

Remedios then began to show Bartel the way. Several demons appeared along the way to block the way, but their levels were not high and were easily eliminated by Bartel.

It seems that the devil in charge here is more worried about the large amount of human skins stored up there than the possibility of Remedios escaping from prison.

Battelle successfully arrived at the door of a warehouse, where several humanoid creatures with thin bodies but big heads were constantly copying something on human skin paper, and there was also a dead great magician in the innermost.

When Bartel broke into the room, these creatures raised their heads together. Dark circles could be seen on their pale faces. Even the bones of the dead great magician looked much whiter.

The monster showed a moment of confusion, but how could Bater miss this opportunity? He took two big steps to the nearest monster, and with the sword in his hand, he lifted up the big-headed monster and smashed it towards the farthest monster.

Then Battelle twisted his body and, relying on inertia, chopped off the head of another monster with one rotation.

At this time, the other monsters also raised their hands to cast spells on Bater. Because they were in a room full of human skin paper, these monsters were very careful when casting spells and did not dare to use magic such as fire, acid, and electric shock.

After all, as a summoned creature, if it is killed, it will only lose its own life, but if it accidentally destroys the scroll in the room, it will damage the interests of the Great Tomb of Nazarick.

These monsters were not of high level, the highest level Great Wizard of the Dead was only in his twenties, and now they didn't dare to attack casually. It was easy for Bartel to deal with them. In the blink of an eye, Bartel destroyed all the monsters in the room.

"Take these scrolls and just think of activating them when you want to use them."

A magic scroll is a fool-proof magic item that can be used by ordinary people besides magic casters. There are piles of scrolls in this room right now, all of which were made by the monsters in the Great Tomb who worked overtime over the past few days.

To facilitate organization, managers can arrange these scrolls into different categories, mark their levels and attributes, and even considerately draw relevant symbols on the outside of the categories. Even if you can't understand Japanese, you can tell what category of scroll it is through the symbols, just like the organization method in the game.

Following Remedios' instructions, Bartel found several golden scrolls on the desk of the Great Magician of the Dead. These were the scrolls made of Remedios's skin that Demiurge had shown her.

According to Demiurge, a Paladin's skin like hers seems to be very suitable for making this kind of faith magic. Coupled with the advancement of the Great Tomb's craftsmanship, the magic scroll made with her skin can produce fourth-tier faith magic.

Demiurge also used the scroll on Remedios once, healing her severe injuries, and then began to torture her again.

To Demiurge, this was just a small sideshow, but Remedios remembered it deeply, and now she found such a scroll.

It was a godsend. The fourth-tier healing magic was able to heal broken limbs. Although there would be great side effects, with limbs she would be able to use scrolls to fight instead of being a complete waste.

Bartel used healing magic on her according to Remedios's teachings, and after a burst of golden light, Remedios's limbs began to regenerate. At this time, the management demon above discovered that the connection below was broken, and personally brought people to check.

The guarding demon here is a level 40 praying demon, it looks like a nun with folded hands praying, but its skin is as pale as a dead person, its eyes, mouth and nose are all sewn with thread, and its folded hands are also sewn together with thread.

The Pleading Demon's melee ability is not strong, but it can use special techniques and magic called Sighs, which can cause a large number of debuffs to the enemy and can also apply multiple buffs to its own people.

Following them were eight humanoid demons that looked like a fusion of mantises and humans. Their hands were replaced by huge sickles, which reflected a copper-rusty light and were obviously poisoned.

These eight Scythe Demons are good at close combat. They are only level 20, but they can become very difficult to deal with when they cooperate with the Wish Demons.

However, the Scythe Demon, who was supposed to surround the Wish Demon and provide cover and attack at any time, was left behind by the Wish Demon.

This pleading demon was really anxious. It did detect some unusual movements underground, but it initially thought that the scaly demons were playing some extreme games again. The last time they played baseball with humans, the noise was even louder.

The Pleading Demon sent a low-level demon to tell the Scale Demon to restrain himself. At this time, news came that the human skins that were hung out to dry suddenly caught fire.

These were earned by me working overtime and directing my subordinates. If they are all lost, not only will my work be in vain, but my superiors will definitely be angry, and I will definitely be punished terribly.

Without giving it much thought, he begged the demons to put out the fire quickly. Halfway through, the lower-ranking demons sent down came back in a panic, reporting that the scaly demons were missing, and Remedios who was imprisoned deep inside was also missing.

Although the scaly demons usually do all kinds of things to vent their boredom, they will never leave their posts without permission. Now that they have all disappeared, the only possibility is that they have been destroyed by the enemy.

Upon hearing the news, the Praying Demon was horrified. Remedios was imprisoned by Demiurge himself, and it would be in great trouble if it lost Remedios.

He rushed down with his men in a hurry and found traces of battle on the ground. Following the traces, he found the magic scroll production room.

Although the eyes of the Pleading Demon were sewn up, it was not a human being and did not rely on its eyes to see. When it rushed into the scroll making room, it saw Remedios who was receiving treatment. In the eyes of the Pleading Demon, this woman not only wanted to run away, but also wanted to steal the scrolls they had worked so hard to make. This was extremely abominable.

In a rage, the Pleading Demon rushed straight towards Remedios, its clasped hands emitting a black light, and its powerful special skill was about to be released, but then it was beheaded by Battelle.

A mage rushed to the front by himself without being prepared for the strong man next to him. It can be said that his death was very reasonable.

Battelle didn't know that he had just killed the supervisor of this place. To him, the trouble caused by this hot-headed praying demon was not as big as that caused by the frightened sickle demon following behind.

Although the fourth-tier healing magic can regenerate severed limbs, it takes a while to cast and cannot replenish physical strength. After Bartel chopped down the remaining sickle demons like autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves, Remedios did not fully recover.

But there was no need to be so anxious now. Remedios knew that the person who had just been hacked to death was the supervisor of this place. After a brief discussion with Bartel, they decided to take advantage of the chaos to rescue the humans in the ranch.

Bartel also used a scroll of healing magic on himself. In fact, even though the Space Marines had very strong self-healing abilities, he was too badly injured before and there was no way he could recover in such a short time. In the previous battle, Bartel was fighting while enduring severe pain.

After using the healing scroll, Battelle felt a warm current entering his body. His previous injuries quickly improved. He couldn't help but sigh that this thing was really convenient.

If forbidden technology had not been popularized, there would have been a lot less casualties in the war.

After Bartel recovered, Remedios's limbs grew back, and now Remedios finally had no missing parts.'

Bartel tore off a piece of cloth with the fire element logo on the table and handed it to Remedios. Remedios did not hesitate. After all, she had experienced everything during this period of time and no longer cared about this.

Just use it as a tablecloth and drape it over your body as a simple piece of clothing.

Then Bartel took out the box and began to collect the various scrolls on the table. Remedios was still very weak at this time, but she also tried her best to help.

The two men quickly selected the higher-level scrolls and filled two large boxes with them, then strung them together with ropes and carried them on Bartel's back.

Unfortunately, most of the monsters in the Great Tomb of Nazarick are summoned, and their equipment will not drop when they die. Even if you steal their weapons when they are alive, they will disappear immediately once these monsters die.

So until now, Bartelle can only use the equipment he got from the Great Tomb of Nazarick, and now he has no way to find equipment for Remedios.

In the end, Remedios chose a candlestick as her weapon. As a paladin, she would feel uneasy without a physical weapon in her current situation. Moreover, she was now weak and could use the candlestick as a crutch to help her walk.

The candlesticks in this room are all made of metal with a large base, five trays for candles, and are about 160CM high.

Seeing that Remedios had great difficulty walking with the heavy candlestick, Bartel helped Remedios remove the large base and break off the four trays, greatly reducing the weight of the candlestick.

As for carrying Remedios on his back to fight again, Bartel had never considered it.

He could tell that Remedios was a tenacious warrior, and now that she had gained some mobility, he should respect her.

In this way, both sides came outside. When they encountered the demon Bartel, they went straight up to chop people, while Remedios used various magic scrolls to launch attacks.

The two came to one house after another, killing the guarding demons, healing the seriously injured humans, and distributing magic scrolls to humans who were still willing to resist.

Many of these humans were so frightened that they dared not resist.

Battelle didn't care about them. After giving scrolls to the humans in the house who were willing to resist, he immediately took them away and lit a fire.

As long as they have not completely given up hope, these people will run out out of their survival instinct. As for those who have completely given up on saving themselves, Battelle feels there is no need to care about them.

Only when people still think about saving themselves can others save them.

The human ranch that lost its leader and powerful units was soon destroyed by Bartle, and the ranch's deputy manager, another great magician of the dead, broadcast a message for help to the Great Tomb of Nazarick.

According to past experience, the powerful beings of the Great Tomb of Nazarick who possess the ability to teleport will be able to arrive immediately to suppress the rebellion.

However, this time its superior only told it that it should work harder, stop complaining about the environment, and think more about its own problems.

The Great Magician of the Dead is going mad.

Is it now a matter of complaining?
The management was killed!

The entire human ranch is now in chaos and it is simply beyond its control.

However, after it sent a request for help in a more urgent and humble tone, it was only replied with "You should be ashamed." After that, its superiors never accepted any contact from it again.

This great magician of the dead did not know that, like some humans in this human ranch, they had been abandoned by their superiors in the Great Tomb of Nazarick, who had also been frightened away.

Soon the great magician of the dead was killed. He was not killed by Bartel, but was defeated by the humans he had looked down upon before, using the magic scrolls that were previously planned to be sent to the Great Tomb of Nazarick.

Although most of these people were civilians before and were not skilled in using magic scrolls, no more than half out of ten could successfully cast a spell, and they did not know how to dodge, so the Great Magician of the Dead could kill a large number of people with just one fireball.

But as soon as they killed ten people, twenty more would rush over. For these humans who had been tortured day and night, this might be their only chance. The worst that could happen was death.

After several rounds, the great magician of the dead was still knocked down by the magic scroll. The panicked crowd, not sure whether he was dead or not, cast several spells on him, one of which even injured other people by mistake.

Battelle, who was fighting on the other side, heard that a powerful enemy had appeared here. When he rushed over, he found that the battle was already over.

Battelle then integrated the surviving humans, took away the remaining scrolls and a few things that could be used as weapons, and set the entire human ranch on fire.
