Warhammer: Filial Piety Makes Power

Chapter 176 GOGO is afraid I'll get tired
At first, Luo Jia thought it was just a game, a joke Mordred was playing on her.

When Luo Jia learned that her first opponent was a chicken, she didn't take it seriously and became even more determined to do so. After all, chickens also existed in Colkis, and she had raised them when she was a child. Unfortunately, her father and Iribas cooked and ate them.

But no matter what, Luo Jia would never admit that a strange creature weighing at least nearly 500 pounds and over three meters tall was a chicken.

As is well known, ninety percent of the Empire's technology relies on archaeology, highlighting the power of bricks flying everywhere. The foundation that enables this abstract operation is humanity's magical materials technology.

Among them, the four Heavenly Kings of Iron, Plastic, Pottery, Fine Arts are the most prominent.

Iron refers to iron-clad concrete, the main building material of the Nest City, which can support man-made wonders tens of thousands of meters high. However, this thing was torn to shreds by a single claw of the Tranquil Free-Range Chicken.

"Plastic" refers to plastic steel, a core material used in ballistic armor and even in various Space Marine equipment. As for ceramic steel, it goes without saying that it is the armor layer of power armor, capable of withstanding a barrage of flashlight fire.

But the reason why the tranquil chickens were chosen by Atlas as the first trial for recruits is because they slowly absorb adamantite particles from rocks, eventually growing an adamantite beak that can peck through terracotta steel, and they are also social animals.

The extent of the Primarch's power is a topic that the Imperial populace enjoys discussing most.

If you put it online, it could spark a heated debate for hundreds of posts, with even a lot of inhuman and ghostly things getting involved. But without a doubt, the Primarchs have extremely powerful self-healing abilities and are very resilient.

Luo Jia, who was pecked to death, said it was all true; if she didn't have such a strong physique, she would have died long ago.

Faced with the mad chicken's death charge, Luo Jia bravely charged out of the cave, riddled with holes, and then she encountered a Katachon demon.

"Heu!! (Imperial profanity.)"

Faced with this giant beast that was more than ten meters long, Luo Jia, who was trapped in the cave, had no choice but to brandish his dagger and charge forward.

However, the Katachon Demon is no ordinary Karami; its thick chitinous armor is comparable to the frontal armor of the Lemanrus, making it a true living tank.

Luo Jia's small dagger wasn't even as thick as the armor layer. After realizing that this two-legged beast couldn't hurt her, the Katachan demon swung its claws and slapped Luo Jia away, then began chasing after her.

Venom spitting and claws piercing, Luo Jia was soon covered in wounds. This directly aroused Luo Jia's ferocity. Despite the venom covering his head, he leaped and jumped behind the Katachan demon.

The acid-corroded hands pierced the chitinous armor like razors, forcing the Katachon demon to intensify its venom spray. But the giant, already possessed, paid no heed and tore through flesh with brute force, burrowing inside.

"Go to hell, you monster."

Luo Jia, now inside the demon Katachan, was truly enraged. This bastard Mordred was clearly after her; this was murder.

However, Luo Jia, who was frantically tearing things apart, did not realize that his every move was being monitored by Atlas. Mordred had even set up a betting pool to wager on whose idea could defeat Luo Jia.

Seeing that the Katachon demon he had captured was about to be delivered, Goff, having lost 30 gold dogs, detonated the bomb inside the Katachon demon.

"Boom!" With a violent explosion, Luo Jia, who had taken the brunt of the attack to the face, was blasted into the air. But at this moment, Luo Jia was surprisingly clear-headed and began to swing his body, crashing into the distance:

"Hehe, this is my escape route!"

Before Luo Jia could even rejoice, a missile blasted her back to the ground, and Mordred's mocking voice rang in her ears:
"Dear viewers, our Luojia contestant has passed the beginner level. It seems that Goff will need to get a new pet."

Poor Luojia, what on earth is your god up to? Why doesn't he come to save you? Look at your pitiful state, it breaks my heart.

Hey you, could you blur out our imperial princess's face? We don't want her setting a bad example for the children.

Looking at the drone footage descending from the sky, Luo Jia cursed loudly, but Mordred ignored him and continued to mock him:
"Useless Luo Jia, if you have nothing to do, just bite your lighter. You have three minutes to rest. Next up is our Atlas's top combination, the 'Four Royal Knights Mushrooms.' Now, a commercial break."

Salamander Brand Cleansing Facial Wash, whitens every inch of your skin. Made with natural volcanic mud from Nocturnal Planet, it's pure, natural, harmless, green, and environmentally friendly. Even the Lord of Fire Dragons uses it!

Luo Jia was speechless. What the hell was this Salamander brand face wash? Everyone there was a black uncle, even someone like her who had only been back in the empire for a few days knew that. What good was whitening?

"Uh, Mordred, you son of a bitch, bring it on. The Four Horsemen of the King, huh? I'm not afraid of you."

Ignoring Luo Jia's impotent rage, the six-dimensional giant mushroom, comparable in size to the fearless, clad in an Atlas-style trench coat and sporting a bizarre mushroom cap, made a dazzling entrance, immediately drawing Luo Jia's furious curses:

"Damn it, there aren't four people at all. You're playing me. This is an alien. Father won't let you get away with this."

"Hahaha, nonsense. Isn't it natural that there are six of the Four Horsemen? If you don't understand, don't spout nonsense. Men, let this ignorant bumpkin know who you are."

As Mordred finished speaking, six Mighty Mushrooms struck arrogant poses and announced their numbers in turn:

"I am the King of Heaven, the Lower King of Heaven, the Four Heavenly Kings, the Rider King of Heaven, the Warrior King of Heaven, and the Mushroom King of Heaven."

Heavy footsteps thundered as a golden lightning spear shot out. Relying on the mental network link, the 'Four Kings Mushrooms' were of one mind and began frantically rubbing the controller.

With both skill and stats, changing direction and weaving, combining close and long-range attacks, and using a variety of feints, the veteran Atlas is far more experienced than the brute force-bound Luo Jia in terms of combat experience.

Even with her strong physique, the Primitive Body couldn't withstand the savage attacks of the Powerful Mushroom. A barrage of fist shadows crashed down, forcing Luo Jia to circle around the pillar like the King of Qin, only to be repeatedly spitting blood from the blows.

However, as the battle continued, the space available for dodging dwindled, and the self-healing speed could no longer keep up with the accumulating wounds. Every inch of his bones trembled and groaned. Finally, under the bombardment of a supersonic punch, Luo Jia's right leg was broken. Immediately afterwards, five lightning spears descended from the sky, piercing his chest and pinning the immobilized Luo Jia into the rock layer, emitting plumes of black smoke.

Luo Jia felt like she was going to die; everything went black before her eyes. But, to make matters worse, Mordred's voice started ringing out again:
"Tsk, as expected, a piece of trash is a piece of trash. As a genetic prototype, you actually think about giving up. How can someone like you be changed? Do you want me to turn you into a living womb that can only produce offspring?"
He even claims to be a follower of some deity. If your god saw this kind of behavior, even the god would be disgusted! It's utterly absurd; there is no omnipotent god in this world.

Upon hearing Mordred speak of gods, Luo Jia was furious. She absolutely would not allow anyone to tarnish her faith; she would prove it to others, she would let everyone know that God exists.

"shut up!"

A golden light suddenly shone, healing Luo Jia's broken leg. Two hands emerged from the ruins, grasping the scorching lightning spear that was spewing flames.

“Father, a level 12 psionic waveform has been detected.”

"Run? (A vulgar expression from a dog)"

As the piercing alarm sounded, the Thunder Spear was eroded away from Luo Jia's chest cavity, and the intense heat it brought melted the Mushroom Hand.

"Boom!" The energy shock from the ultimate psionic power sent all the surrounding Mushrooms flying. The monitor only showed a blinding golden light, and the bald-headed Luo Jia floated into the air, his previously bald head sprouting strands of silver hair:

"I am not a piece of trash, I am not a piece of trash, I am Loka Aurelion, I am the messenger of God!"

With a roar from Luo Jia, she transformed from a bald-headed Oglin into a powerful, muscular man with spiritual energy swirling around her.

His spiritual energy transformed into golden runes imprinted on his body, and his domineering aura and power surged even more dramatically. The sky was even torn apart by a violent storm, making him appear like a living god, leaving everyone dumbfounded.

With his health and mana fully restored, Luo Jia swung his arm, his golden psionic energy transforming into a 20-meter-long blade that sliced ​​apart a Mushroom that couldn't dodge in time, causing its owner, Brian, to let out a painful howl:
"No, Xiaoqiang, I can't lose you! What will I do without you! Father, can you reimburse me for the expenses into the Legion's account?"

"Father is amazing!"

"..."

Unexpectedly, Luo Jia realized how powerful he was. He felt it was time to settle accounts with Mordred: "Mordred, today, I will enlighten you, you fool."

Ignoring Brian's grieving loss of his vehicle, the remaining five Mushrooms, realizing what had happened, leaped backward. Even if their opponent suddenly unleashed a burst of power, they weren't made of mud.
But as they clashed again, the Four Heavenly Kings discovered that Luo Jia's skills were improving rapidly. He had evolved from a mindless brute into a despicable outsider who would try to deceive and ambush them, his old comrades.

The techniques they used were clearly their own.

In the clash, the super-evolved Luo Jia was able to fight the Five Mushrooms to a standstill, but it was clear to everyone that the Jinba Mushroom's body was already overheating and was no match for the original Jinba Mushroom's body. Defeat was only a matter of time.

Objectively speaking, the fact that six Mushrooms, built with less than the cost of a single Cruiser, have managed to hold out this long is already an extraordinary achievement.

As expected, Luo Jia seized the opportunity and used her size advantage to flash in front of Mushroom King, who was hiding behind and throwing lightning spears while being controlled by Kiaran.

"God Emperor Explosive Fist".

A violent explosion, like a deadly missile strike, struck, melting the scrap armor on Mushroom King's body in a single blow. Half of his body was reduced to ashes, emitting a strong aroma of roasted mushrooms that aroused Luo Jia's thirst.

Without the support of the Mushroom King, the other four Heavenly Kings were quickly killed, smashed into a pile of mushroom fragments.

"Weak, weak, weak, bring on all your tricks!"

Even with the mosaic obscuring the view, Mordred could clearly see Luo Jia's arrogant attitude through the drone, which greatly annoyed him. She was actually squatting on the ground eating mushrooms!
You damned bastard, what do you take my biological weapon for? Don't eat it!

Mordred, who considers himself refined and easygoing, would never admit that he couldn't accept defeat; he's not that pathetic loser.

A chaotic, murky green bolt of lightning flickered from the void, connecting with the mushroom skeletons scattered on the ground, interrupting Luo Jia's feeding. Mordred's voice also came through the drone once more:

"Luojia, congratulations on passing the first trial, but don't be too happy yet. Next, I will show you what Atlas's true strength is."

You really think you're invincible just because you defeated six Mushrooms? How ridiculous! You can guess what we Atlas do. We're just mushrooms, we have plenty of those.

"Battle Mushrooms of the Endless Abyss, in the name of the Mushroom King, I grant you the right to burn once more! Giant Mountain Super Powerhouse—Merge!"

Accompanied by a catchy chorus of "GOGO, I'm afraid I'll get tired," the Mushroom King, which had been smashed into pieces, rapidly turned green and, under the influence of the Fel Primarch, quickly fused together, eventually transforming into a colossal mushroom weapon the size of a Predator Titan.

Moreover, as the first rays of sunlight touched the earth, Luo Jia saw a mountain range emerging from the horizon, and the mountain range was getting bigger and bigger.

Upon closer inspection, Luo Jia immediately wore an expression as if his father had died, because it was not a mountain range at all, but a swarm of Mushrooms stretching for several kilometers, led by an Imperial Titan and guarded by six Warhounds.

And who else could be standing atop that divine machine, striking a pose with his back to the sun, but Mordred?

"Luojia, run! If I catch you, you'll be utterly humiliated!"
