Warhammer: Expedition to the Multiverse from 30k

Trazyn stood before the tomb world's holographic display, holding its iconic staff of empathic annihilation.

This weapon with the ability to fold and reassemble can cross the vast space of the universe and directly fall into the hands of the body controlled by Trazyn.

This wondrous scepter is rumored to have come from the time of the War in Heaven, a piece of Warp technology seized from the generous hands of the Creators.

"It's better not to send out the Death Mark. I'll collect nothing after destroying all these precious collections. Let a few Immortals and Destroyers do it."

The Endless tapped the screen a few times casually, releasing the more advanced Undead Sleepers from their dormant states.

Waking up the sleeping Necrons prematurely would, in a sense, damage their already fragile memory cores and thought processes.

But to Trazyn, these were just a few insignificant pawns.

The Undead Overlord sat in the position of overlord of this small dynasty, with his hands folded across his chest as he did in the days of the Necrontyr, staring with interest at the Immortal Guards on the screen who were moving towards evacuating humanity.

“My recording equipment is ready and hopefully it will add some exciting moments to my collection process.”

The Great Collector certainly didn't just happen to appear on the planet Sosa. Even for the Necrons, this place was quite remote, with only a dynasty that was as small as it could be guarding a Pharos device.

In fact, this Necron Overlord, who is full of the spirit of recording history, has always been paying attention to the young but extraordinary human race.

Even before Terra was unified, Trazyn had visited the human home planet and collected several Thunder Warriors made by the Emperor.

As for the two places of great historical significance, Isstvan III and Isstvan V, Trazyn would certainly not be absent. It naturally also discovered the Red Alert that had revived and escaped from that planet.

And today, when Roche visited Sousa on the Red Alert and tried to crack the code of Faros, the great collector finally couldn't stand it anymore and decided to meet him in person.

Chapter 118 Immortal

Roche has returned to the defensive camp of the 199th Ultramarines Company.

As the order was issued, the stronghold immediately entered a state of war.

All the Ultramarines were immediately on martial law, and the mortal auxiliary troops remaining in the camp also put on auxiliary equipment and entered their respective positions to be ready for battle.

There is a sense of solemnity and tension everywhere.

"Take out those basilisks and missile nests, warm up the sentry guns, and start up all the war vehicles."

As soon as the warsmith returned to his familiar fortress, he immediately began to issue orders.

His command rank was even higher than that of the captain of the 199th Company, an authority granted by the Primarch himself.

When it comes to fighting defensive battles, this Iron Warrior's predecessor as Trident is an absolute authority.

Roche watched as Dantioch deployed the personnel and equipment of the position: the mortal auxiliaries, the Ultramarines, and the small number of Crusaders commanded by the Mechanicus Tech-Priests, all perfectly filled in a tight line of defense under the command of the blacksmith.

The original standardized defense line of the Extreme Marines became even more indestructible after being modified by the blacksmith.

More traps and bait fortifications filled the Ultramarines' overly formulaic defense line, turning it from a simple line of defense into a meat grinder that could continuously bury enemies.

Even Hill had to admit that the Warsmith's attainments in defense were far beyond the reach of an ordinary Space Marine commander.

Luo Xi sent out many drones with detection capabilities, and every move within 50 kilometers of the stronghold could be displayed on the command center's screen.

Combined with the Space Marines' bird servants and other scanning arrays, every situation on the battlefield can be fully captured.

"Where is the enemy? How will you break through my defense?" The blacksmith muttered to himself. He did not doubt Roche's guess. If it was the Necrons, then they would definitely continue to send pursuers to hunt down these thieves.

The Necrons' elusive ability made the Warsmith very unhappy, as it meant that the enemy could use some supernatural means to directly circumvent the defense line he had painstakingly created.

He could only increase the scanning power of the bird servant and continuously scan the complex environment near the camp.

In the quiet ancient forest, there are only the sounds of some insects and birds, and the breeze brings a sense of coolness and relaxation.

But soon, accompanied by subtle fluctuations in space, some dark green pocket dimensional cracks appeared in the drone's sight.

Some metal skeletons, larger than the previous Necron Warriors, crawled out from it. Their living metal bodies were larger and wider, and their spines protruded strangely from their backs.

It is visible to the naked eye that the armor attached to these Necron military forces called Immortals is heavier, and the most obvious thing is that they all have large double-barreled Gauss bursters in their hands.

These weapons were much larger than those captured from the Necron warriors, and the lingering green energy around them could be detected even from a great distance.

The enemy's arrival immediately activated the alarm in the communication system, and the shrill beeping sound put every soldier into a state of war.

They are coming.

The auxiliary troops hiding in the bunkers of the position and observing the front edge of the position through telescopic probes and bird servants discovered the figures of the metal skeletons.

They took huge steps and walked towards humans without any hesitation.

Judging from visual observation, their height is much taller than that of mortal auxiliary troops, and they are at least as tall as Space Marines.

Green energy beams flickered in the metallic body, and the terrifying skull face made mortals feel nervous.

"Be careful, they are different from those crudely made metal skeletons." Dantioch's voice sounded on the communication channel.

"It can be seen that they know how to use strategies and tactics, and they have very strong military qualities."

Not only did the Necron Immortals appear in one direction, but they also appeared on the side away from the Pharos Mountains.

From their marching posture on the battlefield and the aura they released, the battle-hardened Space Marines sensed the presence of their own kind.

If the previous Necron warriors were just a group of civilians who were forcibly transformed, conscripted and given weapons, then these Immortals are extremely elite professional soldiers.

The drones that were collecting intelligence on the edge of the battlefield captured some unclear unfamiliar languages. Cold and dull mechanical sounds were coming out of the mouths of these Necron Immortals. That was the language of these ancient aliens.

Suddenly, with an invisible strong electromagnetic interference attack, the processing cores of all the drones floating in the air were instantly burned out, and they fell to the ground under the pull of the planet's gravity.

"Our drone was shot down."

Luo Xi was not surprised. In terms of technology, these metal skeletons were more powerful than him.

"First, cover with fire. Let us see what these damn skeletons are capable of."

At the command of the warsmith, the petrified lizard cannons in the Ultramarines camp immediately unleashed their fury.

Following closely behind were missile nests released by the Iron Hands, and various melta weapons and plasma weapons were also launched in the direction of the Necron army's advance.

The air around the Mechanicus's Crusaders was crackling, and the huge energy filled the air with the smell of ozone. The choking weapon propellant and the sickening smell of burnt flesh and blood were the effects of their strong radiation weapons and electromagnetic weapons.

The desire to fight shown by the mechanical priests staying in the rear was even stronger than that of the Astartes.

The believers of the God of All Machines stared almost directly at these unprecedented alien metal skeletons and the unknown Gauss weapons in their hands, and the word "curiosity" was almost written on their faces.

Even Roche could feel how much they wanted to cut these Necrons into pieces and drag them onto their own experimental tables.

"Praise Om Messiah for guiding us to discover more unknown technological treasures."

"These abominable aliens actually stole our technological heritage!"

These Crusaders, who have undergone a lot of mechanical modifications just to get one step closer to the Ohm Messiah in their hearts, even squeezed out the space for the Space Marines.

With their infinitely fanatical belief in Om Messiah, they simply left their positions and fired wildly at the Necron Immortals that were entering the battlefield.

The Immortals were also unambiguous. They were more powerful and stable than the Necrons, and the large Gauss blasters in their hands emitted terrifying Gauss rays.

As long as the body is touched by these green rays, no matter whether it is the modified titanium steel limbs of the Crusader or the flesh and blood that are still preserved, they will all be blown away by the wind like sand.

Mechanical tissue, flesh, bones, a living Skitarii warrior was stripped and decomposed before everyone's eyes.

However, their morale was not affected at all, and they used their melta guns and radiation weapons to destroy several Necron Immortals that were engaged in crazy killings.

Some of the Necrons held Tesla carbines, which were different from Gauss weapons. Every time they fired a chain lightning, the crackling arcs of electricity would transfer from one Skitarii to another.

The flesh and blood were burned and the metal armor was melted, causing huge casualties among the Crusaders in an instant.

Chapter 119 Time Loop Warhead

Dozens of Crusaders belonging to the Mechanicus were quickly defeated in the long-range battle with the Necrons. Those organized Immortals possessed terrifying destructive power in long-range combat.

The weapons of the Skitarii from the Adeptus Mechanicus can often only leave an inconspicuous bullet hole or a melt mark on the reinforced living metal of the Necrons. The bodies of the Immortals are far more solid than those of the Necrons warriors.

They showed their ability to think calmly. The immortals formed a well-organized military formation and strangled the crusaders who rashly rushed out of their positions to protect them from all angles.

For some reason, Luo Xi could even see a hint of the pleasure of killing and the joy of humiliating the enemy on the faces of these iron skeletons.

"They were once flesh and blood creatures, but they came to hate and resent flesh and blood humans."

The bolters in the hands of the Warsmith, Nikona and others never stopped firing. The firepower network released by the basilisks had little effect on the Necrons.

They seemed to have a response plan for this kind of brutal range bombing. Their special stance defense greatly weakened the kinetic energy of the bombing. Even if they were hit at close range, they could only be blown into the soil, and then the living metal would squirm and return to its original state.

Their iconic living metal bodies give humans a great sense of oppression. Even for aliens with strong vitality like the Greenskins, it can be considered a fatal injury. When facing the Necrons, it can only delay time.

It only takes tens of seconds for the knocked-down Necrons to recover their damaged parts through the self-healing of the living metal.

"Replace the explosive bomb."

Hill calmly gave the order, and the Ultramarines divided half of their forces to continue suppressing the advancing Necrons, while the other half replaced the new type of bombs that arrived in Sosa with Roche and others.

Bolters are the most common ranged weapon used by Space Marines, and their ammunition is not limited to standard bolt rounds.

Those standard .75 caliber bombs consisting of depleted deuterium cores and diamond warheads are enough to deal with ordinary aliens, but they are not enough to face the Necrons.

When prepared, Space Marines will often switch to a type of explosive bomb that is more suitable for battlefield conditions.

Dantioch's bolter fires Infernal Bolters, which are bombs that have a depleted deuterium core replaced with oxyphosphorus gel, producing an extremely hot chemical fire at the target.

The Necrons hit by this incinerating bomb fell into a sea of ​​promethium fire. They looked as hideous and terrifying as evil spirits entangled in the flames of hell.

The high-temperature flames burned the living metal. Even the strongest living metal was constantly melting and deforming. The Undead Immortal's unwilling half body melted and collapsed in the sea of ​​fire.

However, Sharokin and his companions used another, rarer type of bomb. A small amount of antimatter was bound inside these bombs by a strong magnetic field. As the bombs exploded on the living metal of the Necrons, the antimatter exposed to the positive matter immediately underwent a material reaction.

The horrific explosion tore apart the body of the Necron. At the deepest part, the micro-vacuum created by the annihilation of positive and negative matter instantly crushed its remains into one piece.

"They are not completely dead. I detected traces of data transmission. They have a system similar to rebirth."

Although Luo Xi did not directly participate in the battle, he had been using the intelligent computer to analyze the battlefield model.

Those Immortals who fell completely and could not recover were seemingly killed by the Space Marines, but in fact the data in their bodies had been transferred to a certain location.

In other words, as long as they are given a little more time, these Necrons will be able to complete their rebirth and return to the battlefield with another body.

"This is simply a rogue style of play. Can these damn metal skeletons really not afford to lose?"

Luo Xi rarely cursed loudly, while thinking about how to crack the rebirth protocol of these immortals.

"Time. They have mastered a part of time technology. Once an individual dies and cannot be repaired, the consciousness controlling the body will be uploaded to a certain intermediate terminal for resurrection."

As the Necrons drew closer, the Immortals and the Tomb Spiders mixed in among them destroyed the human positions, turrets and armored vehicles with flashing Gauss weapons and burning white light.
