Warhammer: Don't Call Me the God of All Machines

Chapter 241: Savage Spirit Tribe
"Sage Lawrence has conducted a genetic test and found that these creatures are not the product of some kind of genetic modification. Their genetic codes retain traces of primitive evolution. So, these powerful monsters are actually native creatures bred by the planet."

“Amazing nature.”

Luo Xi couldn't help but sigh. He was very curious about what kind of wild world gave birth to such a monster that could fight against Tengu Mecha or Knight Mecha with its physical body.

The White Scars' Tengu Squadron killed all of the six-winged dragons at the cost of two fighter planes. These creatures were able to tear through the alloy protection with their own flesh and blood, and destroyed the engine core with a clear purpose.

Although the defense of the Tengu mecha is not strong, it is amazing enough.

Many giant beasts encountered during the colonial development process, whether it is the hammer-headed thunder beast with a war hammer head, or the death beast with maxed out ambush hunting ability, or the six-winged dragon that can fight with the Tengu mecha, all have the ability to threaten human colonists.

And this is just the beginning. With the forward base they established as the core, the area that has been explored so far has a diameter of just over 100 kilometers.

What is certain is that the horrific monsters we have encountered so far are by no means all of the monsters on the planet Pandora.

And according to the memories that Faffnar read by tasting flesh and blood, the rulers behind these beasts are some special kind of Eldar.

This is a special subspecies that is different from the Ark Eldar. Luo Xi believes that this planet may be the reservation of these Eldar living on the wild planet. This is their home world.

"If we want to dig the black stone here, we will inevitably provoke these special Eldar. It's really a headache. We know very little about the Eldar. If we can capture an Eldar alive, we can have a deeper understanding of these mysterious alien races."

There is no room for compromise for Luo Xi. The five hundred worlds currently are in urgent need of black stone minerals. Therefore, even if he has to become enemies with these wild elves, he must completely control this planet in the hands of mankind.

"We have to maintain a conservative expansion posture. If we rush in rashly, it may give those barbaric elves hiding in the dark an opportunity to take advantage of us."

Hill recorded Roche's strategic plan. In addition to continuing to send scout advance teams composed of the White Scars and Space Wolves, other Space Marines and mortal auxiliary forces must wait for the defense facilities of the forward base to follow up before they can continue to expand.

That forward base is converting the minerals and energy on Pandora into a steel fortress visible to the naked eye with an efficiency that the Mechanicus could not imagine.

There is a guard post every three steps and a sentry every five steps. The steel jungle is squeezing the living space of the primeval forest.

The sphere of influence of mankind is constantly expanding, and the ground of steel and concrete is gradually replacing the wilderness areas where complex plants grow.

In front of the special land reclamation machines, the huge plants collapsed. These are also precious resources. After processing, they can be transformed into biomass for consumption in the forward base.

What Luo Xi fears least is fighting a war of attrition with these enemies. As long as it is confirmed that there are black stone minerals here, the forces of the five hundred worlds will continue to come. They will use Sosa as a springboard and forward base, and completely submerge this planet with massive warships and troops.

As for these elves, they only have the resources of this one planet. As time goes by, the balance of victory will tilt towards humans.

He is determined to get the Black Stone, and this fantasy planet Pandora will also be in his pocket. These unique species bred by nature will be very precious genetic samples.

As for whether the Savage Elves were willing to agree, that was not within Luo Xi's consideration. If they were unwilling to be decent, then he could help them be decent.

……

Just as humanity's forward bases were springing up all over Pandora, the planet's native inhabitants realized that the situation was gradually deteriorating and moving in a direction that they could no longer control.

Those despicable upright apes had actually extended their evil tentacles into the private lands of the Savage Eldar. In a secluded canyon on the planet Panla, brightly colored floating mountains floated in the sky. Lush vegetation grew unchecked, and flowing waterfalls cascaded down from the floating mountains, creating countless brilliant rainbows.

This is the core territory of the Savage Elf Clan and also their home where they have lived for tens of thousands of years.

At the foot of the suspended mountain is an extremely dense sea of ​​trees. Even the shorter giant trees are over a hundred meters tall. This is a three-dimensional green world where many rare creatures live, showing a state of harmonious coexistence.

Among all the trees, there is one giant tree that can be called a true behemoth. The straight-line distance from the crown to the roots is more than a kilometer. The intricate branches and leaves form a living ecosystem.

Only the Savage Elves understood that it was not a naturally formed giant tree, but a carrier of the soul of the planet world, a sacred being they called [Eva].

Eva buries the souls of the dead Savage Eldar. In order to resist the Lady of Thirst's greed for the souls of the Eldar, the Savage Eldar will bury the soul stones of the dead deep in the World Soul and integrate them into a complex psychic network.

With a long roar of a giant dragon, a flying dragon with orange-yellow skin and six wings entered the coverage area of ​​the World Soul. It was an invisible twisted barrier that blocked the prying and surveillance of the outside world.

The power of their ancestors protects the savage elves who live here, saving them from being discovered by their ancient enemies.

Looking closely, on the back of the six-winged flying dragon, a wild elf wearing bone armor was controlling his mount to slow down and land on the surface of a giant tree where it could rest.

Those huge plants seemed to grow according to the will of the elves, forming a flat land in the air within the dense canopy.

The six-winged dragon flapped its wings and slowly landed, and water and nutrient-rich liquid food immediately flowed from the curled leaves of the giant tree, and the spiritual giant beast immediately began to eat with relish.

The Eldar was in a hurry. As soon as he arrived at his home, he immediately walked towards the most solemn and sacred place of his tribe.

He moved between the towering tree trunks with a speed and agility that few humans could match, and the intricate tree canopy seemed as flat as the ground before him.

Looking down, at the base of these giant trees, a group of the same wild elves were cultivating the land, using six-legged pack horses to pull tools and carrying out hard work.

In addition to the Eldar engaged in farming, there are also the Aida who are picking wild fruits from the giant trees and bushes and herding giant herbivores. They do not behave like a branch of the ancient Eldar Empire at all, but more like some hardworking farmers before the Industrial Revolution.

Dragon Knight Keen understood the significance of what his fellow Eldar did. When the Eldar Empire had not yet collapsed, some far-sighted Eldar realized the depravity of their own race, which would lead to extremely terrible consequences.

Before everything deteriorated to an irreversible point, they chose to flee the paradise-like Eldar Empire and head to the uninhabited edge of the galaxy to find those desolate primitive worlds.

They gave up those pleasures and indulgences, and maintained their focus through hard work, avoiding losing themselves in hedonism and having their souls devoured by the born intermediate god.

Relying on this primitive survival strategy, they became the few survivors of this ancient race, but now, the peaceful life is about to be broken, those madly expanding upright apes have extended their tentacles to Pandora.

As a rare dragon knight in the tribe, Keane drove the beasts on Pandora to attack the humans who landed on the surface of the planet, but it was obvious that those behemoths without advanced intelligence were easily slaughtered by humans.

He must warn his people that danger is coming, and all the wild elves must unite to fight against those greedy humans.
