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

Chapter 246 Charge, Dragon Knight

The dragon knight Keen, who stepped forward in the crisis, made two plans: on the one hand, he would lead hundreds of assembled dragon knights and attack humans together with a larger tide of wild beasts.

The number of beasts that besieged humans before was too small, so they were defeated one by one by humans. Keane decided to go big this time. He will send his dragon knight comrades to the entire Pandora star to summon the most powerful beasts.

Pandora gave birth to so many giant beasts, some of which were so dangerous that even the Savage Elves were unwilling to approach them. But in this dangerous situation, what he needed most were those terrifying and threatening creatures.

On the other hand, he had taken out the long-distance communicator given to him by his Ark Eldar friend, and used this psychic item made by the prophet of the Ark World of Alaitok to call for the assistance of the Ark Eldar.

At the very least, those Ark Eldar could help him pin down the human warships on the orbital platform, making it impossible for the enemy to launch their terrifying light spear bombardment.

The Ark Eldar who had previously visited Pandora had already left, and it would take some time for them to return to provide support, but Keane was not worried about that.

Only the Eldar know that on this wild planet, there exists an ancient creation called the Webway, a superluminal path created by the former Creator. With the help of the Webway entrance, they can travel freely among the stars in the universe.

With the help of the six-winged dragons, the dragon riders were able to quickly shuttle through the sky of Pandora. They had to avoid the sight of human air forces. Previous encounters had proved the excellence of human flying armor.

Keane had never imagined that those crude machines of mankind would develop into this state. Not only did the Tengu mecha have more explosive power than the flying dragons they tamed, but even in close-range aerial dogfights, it was more agile than the six-winged dragon.

The humans who ride them are definitely the best riders. The Dragon Knight firmly believes this because he has invested a lot of time and energy to become one with the intelligent six-winged dragon. They can communicate and cooperate with each other.

Human fighter planes are completely dependent on the control of the riders. Keane doesn't know how they do it, but his competitive spirit is burning. If he has the chance, he must compete with those riders called White Scars.

The dangerous creatures on Pandora usually have their own ethnic groups and power distribution. They have a clear sense of territory and will fight any creature that invades their territory.

However, the Savage Eldar are an exception, and the root of their problem lies in the soul of their world, the sacred tree Eva.

Since the soul stones of the Savage Eldar who died from generation to generation would be sent to the shrine of the World Soul and integrated into the overall psychic circuit of the World Soul there, Eva prefers these Eldars, and the creatures in the planet's ecosystem also have a good impression of the Eldar.

They generally do not harm the Savage Eldar, but will obey the orders of the Eldar people and are willing to fight for them.

Keen reached a cooperation with those powerful creatures. In the name of the sacred tree Eva, all the powerful beasts of Pandora will fight to defend their homes.

A surging tide of beasts began to spread from all over the planet. Driven by the Soul of the World, tens of thousands of Pandora species, including the Hammer-headed Thunder Beast, the Death Beast and other beasts, rushed madly towards the place where humans landed.

It was a long journey of thousands of kilometers. Endless giant beasts filled up the gullies, crossed the rivers, and pushed down all the towering trees blocking the road, razing them to the ground.

This spectacular scene naturally could not escape the surveillance of the Red Alert in orbit. Those huge movements were recorded one by one and transmitted to the database of the ground base.

Commanders such as Luo Xi and Hill sat in front of the sand table, understanding the enemy's movements in more detail through holographic projection.

"They still refuse to give up. In that case, let's grant their wish." Luo Xi made the decision.

"Since we can no longer use orbital bombardment, let us defeat the enemy on land and in the air. Won't they drive those behemoths to besiege us? We also have our own steel behemoths."

The base continuously produces knight mechas that are over 15 meters tall. The mortal auxiliary troops will act as drivers to operate these machines. It is really foolish to let humans fight against the monsters that are native to Pandora with their flesh and blood.

Although these knights driven by mortals are inferior to those driven by Space Marines in terms of combat effectiveness, the main difference lies in the speed of nerve reaction and willpower of the riders.

Human beings' advantages are wisdom and creativity. Heavy vehicles such as knight mechas are extensions of the limbs. They will carry the will of mankind to defeat those ignorant beasts.

The Ultramarines, White Scars, Space Wolves and other legion warriors under Roche will choose their combat methods according to their respective advantages and characteristics.

Luo Xi has already prepared for a siege by giant beasts, a battle that has never happened on Pandora. ...

"Everyone, this battle is our last chance."

Keane stood behind his bipedal Tyrannosaurus Rex. The already tough skin of the savage beast beneath him was covered with elite armor made of spirit bones. The head of the beast that resembled the Tyrannosaurus Rex was equipped with a heavy spirit bone helmet, and hideous bone spurs stretched forward.

Parts that are easily injured, such as the chest, leg joints, eyes and nose, are completely wrapped in the spirit bone armor.

These spirit bones are completely different from human metal armor. They are lighter, but stronger and more defensive than regular human armor.

The dragon riders held giant lances that were three or four meters long. The tips of these powerful weapons were wrapped with power field generators belonging to the Eldar, while the handles at the back were polished from the branches of a tough plant on Pandora.

Technology and primitiveness, advanced and backward, the dragon riders of the Savage Eldar generally possess these characteristics.

In addition to the decomposing force field, the tip of the giant lance is also inlaid with a kind of clear ruby ​​that can emit long-range laser energy. The dragon knights intend to rely on this weapon to fight against humans.

The dragon riders riding the four-legged, long-necked dragons carried a complete set of firepower weapons on the backs of their mounts. Those psychic artillery pieces were gifts from their cousins ​​from the Ark Eldar, but they had been sealed in their warehouses and had never been used.

The Savage Eldar have been at ease for too long, so long that they need to relearn how to use these lethal weapons.

Looking at the fully armed dragon knights behind him, Keane felt filled with pride. The galloping beasts were coming in an endless stream.

Like his ancient ancestors, he commanded his military forces on vast battlefields across the stars, fighting bloody battles with immortal enemies.

The dormant war blood of the Savage Eldar is slowly reviving.

Herds of hammer-headed thunder beasts were like surging mountains. They crowded together and trampled out a path for running, while carnivorous beasts, such as the ferocious death beasts, and herds of viper wolves followed closely behind.

The largest of the behemoths is a terrifying creature that looks like a giant scorpion. The wild elves call it Pandora the demon. When it raises its tail stinger, its height is even more than 30 meters.

Its body is made up of a series of limbs and pairs of legs, and its dark carapace has a hard, metallic luster. When it crawls through the jungle, it is even as big as a small land train.

Their limbs make them very suitable for crawling on all kinds of complex terrains, and their razor-like claws and giant pincers that are big enough to cut a death beast in two are helpful for them to clear paths in the forest.

Pandora the demon even used her body to build a bridge across the difficult-to-cross canyon so that other behemoths could pass quickly.

These creatures, with completely different eating habits, would normally fight each other for food and territory when they met. But at this moment, under the control of the planet's will, they were closely united.

A grand will temporarily dominated and took over them. They were both individuals and unique, just like the immune mechanism of the planet Pandora was triggered, fiercely counterattacking the invaders.

When they rushed out of the jungle, they stepped onto the crystalline earth that had already cooled. It was the trace left after the orbital bombardment of the Light Spear, as eye-catching as an ugly scar on this green planet.

The human forward base is within thirty kilometers ahead.

Keane rode his dragon and raised the lance high in his hand.

"Follow me and charge! Dragon Riders!"
