Warhammer 40: Saviors Emerging from the Bottom

Chapter 97 They've All Gone Mad

The Great Iron Can, also known as the Death Iron Can, is a war weapon created by the Greenskins based on the human Dreadnought.

Tech Boy and Pain Boy (orc quacks) will connect the nerves of lucky orc volunteers to the Death Canister so that they can skillfully manipulate the masterpiece of greenskin technology.

However, due to various technical reasons, these orc volunteers whose nerves were connected to the Death Iron Can often developed symptoms of irritability and mental abnormalities later on.

Only those with teeth (orcs' teeth are their currency) can have the Grand Master perform a special modification, replacing permanent neural access with a control pod.

Because each master craftsman has a different concept in mind, almost no two Death Coil are exactly the same.

However, due to the unified aesthetic style of the Greenskins, almost all the Death Iron Cans are synonymous with violence and barbarity.

The giant iron canister of death that appeared in Xiao Yi's line of sight perfectly embodied these two words.

Its body was twisted like a Coke can that had been carelessly discarded and stepped on, and its outer layer was almost entirely made of rough, thick steel plates that were uneven and riveted together.

Occasionally there are a few weld seams, but they are as thick as a finger and look like hideous wounds from a distance.

Each of its four arms is equipped with a chainsaw, a heavy machine gun, a power claw, and a flamethrower, enabling it to quickly eliminate enemies in close combat as well as carry out long-range attacks.

The entire mech was covered in oil and blood, looking as if it had just been the site of a massacre.

Because of its large size, even without binoculars, one can vaguely see the other's figure.

"Damn it, those green-skinned combat mechs." Alec's face turned pale instantly. He had personally witnessed this terrifying weapon wreaking havoc on the battlefield.

If it were allowed to break into the Imperial army's lines, the battle lines would likely have to be pushed back several kilometers.

"Quickly send men to move all the weapons in the warehouse—heat guns, bombs, and the like—that can destroy heavy mechs, and deliver them to the front lines!"

After saying that, Alec suddenly froze, because there was not a single Cinnabar soldier around him at that moment.

"Sir, could you please...?"

Before he could finish speaking, Xiao Yi turned to a guard beside him and ordered, "Go and notify the soldiers in the rear according to Commander Alec's orders."

"Yes, Your Excellency!"

After the guard saluted, he mounted the motorcycle he had come on and sped back. Watching the guard's departing figure, Alec felt a little relieved.

He looked at Xiao Yi and said, "My lord, let's go too. This place is probably about to fall."

"If you have something to do, you should leave now. I'm quite interested in that big guy over there!" Xiao Yi said with a confident smile.

Originally, I just came here to see how much defensive pressure the Chinese defenders were facing, but I didn't expect to encounter this situation.

Given the strength of the frontline garrison, it would take a huge price to eliminate the Greenskin's Death Coil.

One wrong move and the whole thing could collapse.

The reason for this was not because the Imperial army was too weak, but because there was more than one Death Coil on the other side.

Six aircraft. Unless bombs are used for a saturation attack, there is no way to eliminate the enemy without taking any damage. But right now, the Aurora defenders are most in need of weapons and ammunition.

Whether for the purpose of eliminating high-threat enemy units or relieving defensive pressure on one's own side,

He still wanted to demonstrate his military might and establish his authority in front of the Imperial army at the front and the captains who were not very willing to obey his orders, so as to lay the groundwork for the unification of the Far East star system in the future.

Xiao Yi felt it was necessary for him to deal with that aesthetically unappealing green mecha.

Looking at the calm group of people in front of him, Alec couldn't help but want to ask if they were crazy.

That's no child's toy; it's a real killing machine. The human body is as fragile as cheap glass in its presence, shattering at the slightest touch.

"Sir, please stop joking. You should leave now."

Undeterred, Alec continued to persuade him, saying that this was the governor of another planet, and if he died here, it could cause a diplomatic incident, thereby affecting other planets' aid to China.

Unfortunately, Xiao Yi didn't listen to him at all.

With his knees slightly bent and after a brief moment of gathering his strength, Xiao Yi charged towards the battlefield.

Seeing the governor disappear before their eyes, the rest of the group immediately got into their cars and began to give chase.

Alec was left completely bewildered.

"No way, how did someone with a brain like his become governor?"

"Damn it, even the idiots among the nobles aren't this difficult to please."

"We must fight this! No matter what, we must not bring him back."

"Wait, it seems they drove off with the motorcycle and the bombed car!"

After looking around at the open space, Alec could only stand there, filled with impotent rage.

Now he could only silently pray that the Emperor would protect that idiot governor and prevent him from dying so quickly.

If Xiao Yi knew Alec's true thoughts, there would probably be a friendly and cordial exchange.

Unfortunately, he didn't have mind-reading abilities, nor did he have time to care about what the other person was thinking.

Now, all he could see was the giant iron canister of death that had already begun its charge towards the human positions.

A masterpiece of cutting-edge human genetic technology, it allows him to outrun ordinary vehicles equipped by the Empire while running at full speed.

Even with the accelerator floored, Charles and the others could only watch helplessly as Xiao Yi drove further and further away.

One of the guards, moved by the sight, whispered to his companion ahead, "Do you think the governor is even human? No normal person could run that fast, right? Even Lord Kalan and the others couldn't do that."

The volume was already low, and with the roar of the engine covering it up, almost no one would hear these somewhat disloyal remarks.

But the world is never short of surprises. Charles, who had heard every word clearly, looked at the guard who had just spoken with an unfriendly gaze.

"You mean you suspect the Governor is some kind of evil alien in disguise?"

"Of course not!"

The officer's question immediately flustered the guard, who waved his hands repeatedly, indicating that he had no such intention.

"What I mean is that only those chosen by the Emperor can use the power of the Great Lord of Humanity to do things that we ordinary people cannot understand."

The other party's explanation gradually dispelled the hostility in Charles's eyes. He had also suspected Xiao Yi's identity before. He had seen many illegal psychics, but none of them were as powerful as him.

However, as time went by, this doubt gradually disappeared. If the other party really wanted to harm the Empire and humanity, he had plenty of opportunities.

Perhaps, as Arya said, the other party was indeed an envoy sent by the Emperor to save Bakda.

No, it's not just Bakhta, it's also Aurora.
