An energy rift appeared in the center of the empty manor courtyard, and a second energy rift appeared on a large tree in the servant's peripheral vision.

A warrior wearing power armor appeared in the first energy rift. Just seeing this warrior servant made him feel uncomfortable.

And a person emerged from the crack stuck in the tree. This person's body had completely overlapped with the tree. The chain sword and scepter in his hand were like branches growing out of the tree. But the man was not affected and emerged from the tree like a phantom.

Even the servants found this weird scene incredible: "This... this is unreasonable..."

The man emerging from the tree walked forward in a menacing manner, as if he was very angry.

After observing all this, the servant immediately began to think whether he should run away or do something else.

An untouchable person, and a person who can penetrate the surface of objects like a ghost. This combination is not easy to deal with, and it is obviously irrational to fight head-on.

After thinking for a long time, the servant suddenly looked at the stinger beside him, thinking that this chaos egg might be able to delay him for some time so that he could find a chance to escape.

Although this would interfere with the grand plan, there was no other choice at the moment.

Besides, survival is part of the plan.

While the servants were thinking about countermeasures, Yaoen and Qin Mo walked together in the courtyard, and then strode forward, not caring whether there were enemies hidden in the huge luxurious building like a fortress in front of them.

"Yao En, just stay here and cooperate with me." Qin Mo gave the order as he walked forward, then raised his hand towards the building directly in front of him.

A flickering electric current immediately appeared in the air, and then a small electric current was released from Qin Mo's fingertips and hit the building wall.

Yao En, who was following him, saw Qin Mo attack for the first time. He even turned on bullet time so that he could more clearly admire the power from the gods.

A small electric current traveled in the air and quickly flew to the outer wall of the building directly in front, and then penetrated directly into the wall without shattering it.

Immediately afterwards, Yao En saw light emerging from the luxurious and majestic building in front of him, and dazzling thunder and lightning spurted out from every window accompanied by a deafening roar.

Then, as if someone had stuffed a huge bomb inside and detonated it, the fortress-sized metal building was instantly blown to pieces, with the remaining debris splattering around.

The aftermath of this attack alone filled the air at the top of the hive's tower with electricity.

"..." Yaoen, who had witnessed the whole process, was now expressionless and his mind was blank.

"Follow me." Qin Mo stopped and ordered Yaoen.

"Yes." Yaoen immediately followed and accompanied Qin Mo as he continued to move forward, while habitually observing the biological scan results.

After the biological scan results confirmed that there were no living creatures nearby, and Qin Mo could not feel the strong sense of disgust, the two of them were sure that all the enemies had died in the previous attack.

Chapter 86 Traces back

"Now let's see who is playing witchcraft on the top of the tower." Qin Mo said, raising his scepter and tapping the ground lightly.

The building that had been blown to pieces returned to its original shape in an instant, and the thick wall once again blocked the two people.

Yao En couldn't believe his eyes. He had clearly seen the building being blown to pieces, but now it had been restored.

The shocked Yaoen couldn't help but reach out and touch the wall, only to find that his hand could penetrate the wall directly. This made him feel as if he was in a place where the laws of physics were severely distorted.

"This is a scene similar to images. If I didn't restore them, you wouldn't be able to touch the wall." Qin Mo said, "The effect of tracing traces."

Trace retrieval is an ability that Qin Mo naturally masters when the Star God's power gradually recovers.

In the eyes of the Star Gods, the timeline of the entire material universe is visible. They can see the traces left on the timeline by every movement of the various particles that make up all things. By peeling off and displaying these traces on the timeline, they can Really reproduce scenes that have occurred in the past.

Just like it is now.

"Come in with me and have a look." Qin Mo immediately took steps, penetrated the building wall traced back, and entered the room inside.

Yao En quickly followed.

The two of them walked through the building together. They did not have to follow the rules of normal life, such as entering and exiting through the door, taking the stairs to the second floor... Every wall and object here can be penetrated, and can also be penetrated. Obedient to Qin Mo's will, he materialized into a useless entity.

For Yaoen, this is a very novel experience. If he had to use four words to describe his current complex emotions and feelings, it would be - walking with God.

The two shuttled and searched through the building, and after passing through another wall, they both froze in place at the same time.

Directly in front of them is a room with a man and a monster inside.

The man is an old man covered in bruises, and the monster is... indescribable.

"What the hell is this?" Yao En stared at the monster.

There are arms and legs growing out of the mouth, with big mouths and eyes on the arms and legs. The huge body is covered with arms, legs, eyes and mouths, and there are many huge tentacle-like limbs.

The appearance of this thing is not only indescribable, but also terrifying and disgusting.

"Chaos eggs." Qin Mo said.

"That is... what is that?" Yao En asked while suppressing the urge to vomit. The reason he didn't spit it out was just that he didn't want Qin Mo to see his ugly state.

Qin Mo stared at the Chaos Egg quietly, and now he knew why he had such a strong feeling before.

The presence of a Chaos Spawn in the hive was even more off-putting than a hundred psykers wandering around.

"Can it be killed?" Yaoen asked.

"Yes, it will die even if you don't kill it. This is an extremely unstable thing... But don't fight in close combat and be careful of its blood." Qin Mo patiently explained to Yaoen.

If something similar to Chaos Eggs appears again in the Tyrone Galaxy in the future and is distributed over a wide range, Yao En will need to help solve it.

Not every chaos egg is lucky enough to receive thunder and lightning from Qin Mo.

"By the way, how did this thing change?" Yaoen asked again.

"Heretic." Qin Mo replied, his eyes drifting from the Chaos Egg to the old man beside him.

The old man looked out the window in horror, with an expression of disbelief on his face.

Some feathers can be seen on his neck, as well as some weird and crazy blue marks.

Qin Mo immediately realized that this old man believed in Tzeentch. As for how the Chaos Egg appeared and why the Chaos Egg did not attack the old man, he had to continue investigating.

"Flow." Qin Mo ordered to the air.

Time began to flow throughout the scene, and the Chaos Egg and the old man, who were originally motionless, began to move.

The old man was thinking things over to himself while staring outside the building.

Then a small electric current penetrated from the wall and exploded, releasing a huge amount of thunder and lightning. This person and the chaos egg were instantly blown into powder, leaving no time for them to scream.

"It seems they are indeed dead." Yaoen said.

"That's right." Qin Mo nodded in approval, and then let the scene where the traces were traced start to flow backwards, showing everything that happened before like a video played backwards.

Qin Mo still had many unanswered questions, so for the next half of Terra Day, Qin Mo kept using trace traces at the top of the tower to check everything that happened here.

On the spire of the hive city, a scene that happened in the past is reappearing, gradually going back to the time when the Stinger had not turned into a Chaos Egg, and even going back to before the first war.

When Stinger and his servants were discussing things, Qin Mo and Yao En stood beside them, watching the scene replayed in front of them to get more information.

Gradually Qin Mo figured out the ins and outs of everything.

The Chaos Egg was transformed into Stinger, Stinger was the marshal of the enemy army, and the old man was Stinger's slave servant.

The plans of the master and the slave are bigger than the other. One is thinking about using this war to gain knowledge and power, and the other is thinking about using his master to complete a bigger plan.

In short, it’s just a matryoshka doll of planning. Don’t ask, asking is part of the plan.

Qin Mo also learned the answer to a question that puzzled everyone, that is, where did the people who went to the nest go.

It can be seen from trace traces that the people who came to the nest were used as ritual materials in batches. Stinger would personally tell each wave of people that he was here to save these people, and then let these people enter a large pile on the side of the manor. Go to the cage.

In Qin Mo's view, they were pure cages, covered with a large number of evil marks such as spells, but people who were deceived by the stings would happily enter. It is estimated that the appearance of these cages is disguised, so in people's eyes The inner cage was probably the transport plane that saved them from leaving the hive world.

While carefully watching each ceremony, Qin Mo also noticed something. In the first ceremony, an old man stood in a cage and complained.

"That damn bastard Klein came back for nothing. He still has to talk about the First Army's rebellion."

This old man is obviously a member of Klein's family.

Qin Mo immediately turned on the video function of the power armor and filmed the scene in front of him so that Klein could know what happened to his family later.

After exploring the ins and outs and preparing to teleport back to the bottom nest, Qin Mo looked at Yaoen specifically and said something that he must abide by in the future.

"After the upper nest is controlled, the top of the tower will be cleaned by artillery. What you saw today is what you will face in the future. This is the responsibility I have planned for you."

"But it's a secret, understand?"

While speaking, Qin Mo even took off his helmet and showed his most serious expression to Yaoen.

Yao En immediately realized the seriousness of the matter and made a promise: "I will not mention this matter to anyone except you, I swear to God."

"Very good." Qin Mo patted Yaoen's shoulder, then took two steps back to activate the protection device, and was teleported back to the bottom nest.

Yaoen, on the other hand, was sent back to the battlefield in his last nest to continue his battle.

Chapter 87 Deserve it

The war on the upper nest is still going on, and all the members of the First Army who are focused on the battle don't know what happened at the top of the tower.

This is an all-out war, so the 47th Regiment led by Klein did not defend the fortress and people in the bottom nest that did not need other people to defend, but participated in this offensive battle.

In a block on the edge of the eastern area of ​​​​the Upper Nest, Klein sat in a modified Leman Russ tank, directing the battle while keeping an eye on the road ahead.

Most of the enemies were running away, but a small number of enemies who persisted realized their inevitable fate. They chose to carry explosive packs on their backs and carry out a crazy attack.

Klein saw that counterattacks on the front position suddenly became very sparse, and then some enemies leaned out of trenches or buildings, unhooked smoke grenades from their waists and threw them out.

The entire neighborhood was quickly enveloped in thick smoke.

"Turn on thermal imaging." Klein ordered in the regiment's communication channel.

Without his order, the soldiers of the 47th Regiment had turned on the thermal imaging function of the power armor. The smoke looked like a hazy patch in the field of vision. Not only did it not have the effect of hiding the enemy, it even made the enemy's outline appear more clearly. It's clear.

The enemy was not aware of this situation. They ran out of trenches or buildings, carrying various explosives on their backs.

Some are melta bombs, some are a bunch of grenades trapped together, and some are carrying bags filled with powdered explosives...

"Kill them." Klein ordered.

The drone that generated the gravity shield temporarily turned off the gravity shield, the laser rifles in the hands of the infantry began to fire, the tank's main gun opened fire, and even the heavy bolts on the armor on the left and right sides of the turret began to fire.

The enemies were harvested in pieces, fell down one by one or were beaten to pieces by heavy weapons, and the explosives on their bodies were also detonated.

The violent explosions produced by various explosives made the ground tremble. The deafening explosions were filtered by the power armor, while the overwhelming shrapnel and gravel were intercepted by the reopened gravity shield.

"Go forward, go forward." Klein ordered urgently.

The 47th Regiment immediately started biological scanning and advanced, arriving at the enemy's position.
