Warhammer: Rebuilding the Golden Age Starting with Farming

Chapter 130 Tomb Technician: There's trouble at home!

The core logic of the tomb engineer is undergoing an unprecedented storm.

He saw the hot-melt detonators affixed to the stone coffin lid.

The countdown timer on the detonator was still ticking, the red numbers standing out starkly in the dim tomb.

At this moment, this tomb engineer, who had lived for tens of millions of years, witnessed the war in heaven, and used fragments of the Star God as batteries, actually experienced an emotional reaction called "absurdity".

No, what the heck is this?!

Where did these monkeys come from?!

How on earth did these lowly, filthy, greasy-smelling slobs manage to bypass the external gravitational wave beacons, pass through the phase gate, and then swagger into his lab?!

This unscientific!

This doesn't make sense!

Most importantly, his expensive experimental data lay inside that stone coffin!

It is the only perfect sample that he spent four thousand years selecting, extracting, and analyzing from countless species!

Now, these monkeys actually want to stick a bomb on his life's work?

"Sizzle—!!!"

A series of extremely sharp electronic noises, filled with anger and terror, erupted from the tomb engineer's voice unit.

The gist of the translation is: "Stop! Put down my thesis!!"

Without any hesitation, the tomb engineer raised the staff of light in his hand.

Green, high-energy lightning converged at the tip of the staff.

At the same time, he issued the highest-level defense order to the entire research institute through the cemetery area network.

[Alert! Core area breach!]

[Defense Protocol: Fully Activated!]

[Objective: Eliminate all organisms!]

[Note: Don't blow up that coffin! I'll tear apart anyone who does!]

As soon as the command was given, the entire hall came to life.

On the originally smooth black stone wall, countless hidden compartments flipped open.

"Click-clack-click-clack—"

The intense metallic scraping sound sent chills down my spine.

Countless ghostly scarabs poured out from floor cracks, wall crevices, and ventilation ducts.

The tiny metal insects, no bigger than a palm, coalesced into a silver-black wave that surged overwhelmingly toward Kolber and the others in the center of the hall.

Above the dome of the hall, several green light curtains flashed.

Five enormous ghostly workers, with long, serpentine tails and phase claws, pierced through the physical wall and floated out.

Oh no, there's a disturbance at home!

The security system guarding the house was completely thrown into chaos!

"Fire! All hands on deck, fire!"

Kolber reacted extremely quickly; the instant the technician raised his staff, he had already pulled the trigger.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The roar of the bomb gun broke the silence.

Large-caliber explosives roared out, exploding into bursts of fire on the Tomb Technician's phase shield.

But this level of attack can only make the technician sway slightly.

"Boom boom!"

The tomb engineer fought back.

A thick bolt of green lightning shot out from the tip of the staff, heading straight for a demolition expert near the sarcophagus.

"Get out of the way!"

Kolber shoved the teammate aside.

The green lightning struck the ground where they had been standing.

The hard black stone floor instantly decomposed into the most basic atomic dust upon contact with lightning, leaving behind a deep pit that was still emitting green smoke.

Gaussian lightning!

"Go up and wipe out the swarm!"

Kolber roared as he gave the order.

Twenty Type 2 fighter servants immediately rushed towards the surging wave of scarabs.

They felt no fear, no pain, only the fighting program Andy had written into their brains.

"Buzz"

Chainsaw sword activated.

The servants charged into the swarm of insects, wildly swinging their chainsaw swords and slicing the metal insects that tried to climb onto their bodies into pieces.

Sparks flew and metal fragments flew everywhere.

But there were so many scarabs that they covered the ground, layer upon layer.

As soon as a servant chopped up three insects, ten more insects crawled onto its leg.

The scarab beetle's tiny mouth, capable of breaking down matter, began to frantically gnaw at the servant's leg armor.

"ZilayiE

The armor plates were disassembled, exposing the hydraulic lines inside.

Then, more insects crawled in, biting through the cable and damaging the servo motor.

"thump."

The servant fell down and was instantly overwhelmed by the swarm of insects.

In less than ten seconds, it turned into a pile of motionless scrap metal.

However, this is the positioning of the Type 2 fighter servant: a consumable with high attack and low defense.

It was described as a pure glass cannon.

Their purpose is to use this suicidal attack to block the advance of the swarm and create space for the elite units in the back row to deal damage.

Although the cost was high, the results were remarkable.

Under the frenzied attack of the servants, the swarm of scarabs was forcibly blocked at the outer edge.

At this moment, the five ghostly spirits of the underworld workers had already drifted close.

Their illusory bodies flickered between reality and warp, and their phase claws flowed with energy capable of ignoring armor.

"Scatter! Kite them!"

Kohlberg gave the order.

The remaining five elite soldiers simultaneously activated the power backpacks on their backs.

"boom--"

Air jet.

They decisively chose the "rogue style of play" that Andy had specially trained them in.

As the ghost's claws were about to grab him, a warrior abandoned any attempt to parry and instead fell backward, causing the nozzles on his back to spray air in the opposite direction.

He slid backward for more than ten meters, his posture extremely awkward, like a drunkard who had been knocked down.

But this slip saved him from a fatal blow.

Immediately afterwards, he grabbed the CBS high-explosive crossbow from his shoulder and fired an arrow at the ghost's exposed abdomen!

"boom!"

The three-component explosives detonated, shattering half of the ghost's body, damaging the phase shift generator, and forcing its body to materialize.

"Focus fire!"

The other two soldiers nearby immediately followed up with shots.

The barrage of explosives riddled the revealed ghost with holes.

The entire battlefield was in complete chaos.

The human warriors rolled on the ground, jumped around on the walls, and used their power backpacks to perform all sorts of absurd maneuvers in the air.

They don't care about being handsome, they just want to survive.

As long as you can dodge the attack, even a face-first pose is a good pose!

This underhanded tactic is completely unacceptable to necromancers who rely solely on rigid logic and procedures.

The ghostly claws of the underworld worker missed their mark time and time again, only able to emit angry electronic hissing.

The tomb's engineers were absolutely furious!

He kept throwing Gaussian lightning bolts from behind, trying to hit the monkeys that were running around everywhere.

But instead of hitting many people, he destroyed a lot of his equipment.

"Damn it! Don't touch my data terminal!"

"You foolish, good-for-nothing! That's my phase array! Don't hide over there!"

The tomb raider, fearing to harm the innocent, grew increasingly anxious with each attack!

By this time, the servants had been almost entirely killed or wounded.

Apart from two wrecks that were still crawling on the ground firing their broken legs, the other eighteen had all been turned into Gundam parts.

But their sacrifice was worthwhile.

Most of the scarab swarm has been cleared out, and the remaining ones pose no threat.

Three of the five Netherworld Wraiths were killed, and the remaining two were badly damaged, causing the phase system to malfunction.

The situation has reversed.

Kolber got up from the ground and shook the dust off his helmet.

He looked at the furious tomb engineer who was still floating in mid-air.

"Old man, it's your turn!"

Kolber raised his explosive gun and fired a burst at the anti-gravity base.

"Clang! Clang!"

The shield flickered, but then dimmed noticeably.

The tomb technicians panicked.

These monkeys have too much firepower, and that leader, that good-for-nothing, actually knows to attack his anti-gravity engine!

If the shield breaks, he'll die here.

But the detonator on the sarcophagus was still there, and he dared not gamble that these lunatics might actually detonate it.

"Data—data is crucial!"

The tomb engineer made a decision that went against his ancestors' wishes—he ran away!

never mind!

As long as they take the core data disk with them, it doesn't matter if the lab explodes; it can be repaired later anyway.

"Buzz"

The tomb engineer's figure suddenly blurred for a moment.

He activated the short-range teleportation device and instantly appeared at the entrance of a passageway at the back of the hall.

Then it drifted into the depths without looking back.

"He's trying to run!"

One of the team members shouted.

"Chase it! What if it gets away?!"

Kohlberg was in a killing frenzy and had no intention of letting this BOSS go.

"Leave two men to guard the stone coffin! The rest of you, follow me!"

The power armor's engines roared.

Kolber, leading three elite soldiers, stepped over the wreckage and rushed into the passage.

The passageway was wide and long.

The tomb engineer floated ahead, while the humans chased after him, the two sides chasing each other and occasionally exchanging a few shots.

A few minutes later.

They rushed out of the passage and arrived at an even larger underground plaza.

The space here is extremely open, and the height is over a hundred meters.

In the center of the square stood two stationary machines, like tall towers.

The tomb engineer stopped.

He floated between the two machines, turned around, and a malevolent glint flashed in his single eye.

"Foolish, worthless idiots," the tomb engineer scoffed in an electronic voice. "You think you've won?"

"Don't forget!"

"This is my home turf!"

He raised his staff and slammed it heavily on the ground.

A ripple of awakening spread across the ground, connecting to the feet of the two enormous machines.

"Buzz—!!!"

The two steel towers, which had been standing still, suddenly trembled.

Immediately afterwards, the huge single eye on top of them lit up with a blinding green light.

Those weren't towers, but two super-heavy vehicles that only appear in total war.

They have four long, spider-like legs with reverse joints, supporting the disc-shaped main body above.

At the top of its torso, it carries a colossal energy cannon that looks utterly terrifying.

【The Doomsday Walker】

This thing was originally designed to hunt Titans within the atmosphere and blast super-heavy tanks to smithereens.

Its "Doomsday Beam Cannon" can vaporize the frontal armor of a Titan with a single shot.

Now, these two plague gods have awakened.

They stride forward with long legs, emitting a heart-stopping roar, and stand up, reaching a height of over twenty meters.

The massive cannon muzzle slowly pressed down, locking onto Kolber and his companions, who had just rushed into the plaza and were as insignificant as ants beneath the two behemoths.

Green energy gathered at the muzzle, and the surrounding air distorted due to the high temperature.

Kohlberg abruptly stopped, leaving two streaks of sparks on the floor beneath his feet.

His Adam's apple bobbed.

This thing—

How do you fight this thing?!

Andy, this question is way beyond the scope of the curriculum!

High-explosive crossbow? Explosive gun?

Scratching someone's itch isn't enough!

"spread!"

Kolber yelled into the comms, "Scatter immediately!!"

Before he could finish speaking...

"Zzz—BOOM!!!"
