Warhammer 40: Starting as a Rogue Trader

Chapter 253 Unable to Use One's Strength

However, when Adalard saw the Spear of Adun, he felt puzzled.

"Why... why does the material of this warship emit such spiritual energy that it resembles spiritual bones?"

However, this was quickly dismissed... Only the Eldar could manufacture such a thing.

He was originally in charge of the Dao Path, and he was very familiar with the Dao Path of the Bone Chanter.

Although the Spear of Adun was transformed from these spirit bones, there are still differences.

The design of the Spear of Adun also doesn't match Eldar technology. He's lived long enough to be certain that it's not something from any Eldar era.

He never imagined that this was transformed from the Koror Ark.

Gao Yi never expected that the Spirit Race, whom he had tricked so badly, would actually take the initiative to help humanity.
Judging from the appearance of those Eldar warships, they don't seem to be Dark Eldar or Ark Eldar, so they must be Eldar pirates.

Just as Gao Yi was pondering the identities of these spirit race members, Everene sent a communication request.

Since they came here to gain favor and build friendships, they naturally had to reveal their identities; otherwise, how would Gao Yi know who they were?

"Eveline?"

Gao Yi looked at Guilliman beside him. He thought that after Guilliman's resurrection did not require the power of the Eldar Death God, he would not have any interaction with these Death God armies, since the two sides' goals were very different.

However, the Death Army, which operates independently, could indeed do such a thing.

"Don't attack those Eldar! We need any force we can use now!"

For Guilliman, who was in charge of the battle, the intervention of this Eldar fleet relieved a lot of pressure.

The Death Army doesn't have many warships, but they are highly mobile and can hold back the Chaos fleet. Moreover, their presence prevented most of the fleet led by Fugen from entering the real universe.

Evelynn may have her own agenda, but in the course of development, she has indeed cooperated with humans in many ways, and it could even be said that she stands relatively firmly with them.

She also complied with Guilliman's requests as much as possible; otherwise, she wouldn't have been called the Regent's Wife.

Of the four Primarchs, only Magnus's fleet was relatively intact, but similarly, the fleet he led posed the greatest threat.

The fleet that Angron and Fugen brought out totaled only about twenty ships.

Angron himself didn't even leave the warp.

However, the Primarch's intervention caused the remaining Chaos ships to begin gathering around them.

With a leader in place, the remaining fleet remains a force to be reckoned with.

The Tizka Revenge took the lead.

Their target was clearly Gao Yi and the Spear of Adun where the two Primarchs resided.

Meanwhile, communications from the Death Army were also connected to the Spear of Adun.

Adalard was standing next to Evelynn.

Looking at Guilliman and Gao Yi on the screen, he unconsciously looked at Gao Yi.

This was the first time he had seen the person from the prophecy with his own eyes.

"Greetings, humans. We are representatives of the Eldar Death Army. This is Everene, the messenger of Death, and you may call me Adalard."

Congratulations, Robert Guilliman! Your resurrection will surely inject new vitality into your empire.

And your conflict with Gao Yi Montgomery, Kroll, and the clown has nothing to do with us; we are here with goodwill.

Chaos is our common enemy. I once cooperated with another of your Primarchs, Volkan!

This is a keepsake he gave me, and a testament to our friendship.

I have also spoken with your emperor. We talked a lot, and I must say he is an extraordinary person who has single-handedly protected humanity for so many years.

Lord Gao Yi, humanity has produced another remarkable figure. I believe we will have many more opportunities to cooperate in the future!

Aidalard even wore the tooth on his chest, hoping to use Volkan's reputation to achieve his own goals.

Guilliman saw the tooth; his brother Vokhan had indeed mentioned it to him, along with the name Adalard.

Adalard did achieve his goal to some extent; at least Guilliman's feelings of disgust lessened a bit.

"Pah...you old fox...I'd be a fool to believe you!"

He'd heard of Adalard before; none of the Eldar fortune tellers were any good. Sacrificing pawns to save the king was Adalard's favorite tactic, and the pawns he abandoned never fared well.

Both sides knew perfectly well that the other had ulterior motives, but now was indeed the time to cooperate.

Gao Yi had no clue about the location of the remaining Elven Arks.

Leaving aside the still-active Arks, even those that have been destroyed could perhaps be used to upgrade the Spear of Adun.

Getting some spirit bones wouldn't be bad!

The other side would definitely not reveal the details of ordinary Eldar arks, but some Eldar arks have even been taken over by gene stealers.

"Lord Gao Yi, you've had conflicts with these Spirit Race members before?"

Guilliman also realized that these Eldar were intentionally showing goodwill towards Gao Yi; these arrogant creatures would almost never back down in front of humans.

"Yes...we destroyed an Eldar ark world..."

Hearing this, Guilliman found it even more unbelievable. What was the difference between destroying the ark and desecrating someone's ancestral grave?
The other person even forgave you for this?
"Aidalard, the Empire is willing to accept your aid! We can discuss other matters later! The enemy is closing in!"

The Tizka Vengeance fired a variety of shells and torpedoes infused with psionic runes, turning back the advantage that the Empire had just established.

Magnus, however, finally noticed the anomaly inside the Star Pioneer.

The Scarlet Warriors and Warp Demons led by the Thousand Wizards are actually in retreat. What is hidden here?
The glorious battleship "Imperial Pride," which originally belonged to Fugen, also returned to the real universe along with Fugen.

The once exquisite hull has been replaced by countless heretical and blasphemous works of art; it remains magnificent, but now inspires awe.

The interior of the warship was even more appalling.

But the most outrageous one was Angron... This guy managed to cling to the outside of a warship with his bare body...

Ignoring the laws of physics, they clung to the warship and charged forward.

Emperor's Pride and Angron headed directly toward the Spear of Adun, while Magnus remained atop his Silver Tower, manipulating the power of the warp.

One by one, the Empire's warships were pulled into the warp.

Only the Star Pioneer and the Spear of Adun can ignore Magnus's psionic pull; even the Radiance of Macragge cannot escape it.

Fortunately, the bombardment from the Star Pioneer freed it from its restraints.

However, the Chaos faction was also frustrated... The difficulty of dealing with these two warships made the Primarchs' scalps tingle.

The Star Pioneer can warp once in a short period of time, which is acceptable.

However, each cannon shot constantly disrupted Magnus's ceremony.

However, the Spear of Adun, the Protoss's most advanced and massive ark, can warp multiple times in succession.

Magnus and Fugen remained calm, but Angron had already reached a point of extreme rage.

This left all the Primarchs feeling powerless.

This level of rapid maneuverability makes it difficult for conventional warships in the Warhammer world to counter.

One after another, the Chaos warships were destroyed under the concentrated fire of the solar rays.

Gao Yi is flying their kites.

“Fogen…we’ll never catch them this way! We’ve never seen this kind of technology before; we need to cooperate.”

The two Primarchs, who almost never interacted, started discussing cooperation again, just like they did ten thousand years ago during the Great Crusade...

“Magnus…how do you want to cooperate? Besides, there’s no way we can cooperate with that madman Angron.”

“Angron… I will use sorcery to teleport him directly to the battlefield. We must change our objective. We will help Abaddon destroy Cardia, forcing them to abandon that warship and making them come to the planet!”

I won't harm you now. You and I both know what the gods require of us. Don't resist me and my psychic powers! I will teleport our forces together to Kadia.

"I'll trust you this once, Magnus!"

These demonic entities, however, were unaware that this was exactly what Gao Yi wanted to see.

Gao Yi would definitely not risk his life to board Magnus's flagship. Going up there would mean being pulled into the warp and facing the evil god directly, something he couldn't do in his current state.
