The Sisters of Silence and the other Soulless Ones immediately complied, hiding behind whatever cover they could find.
Yaoen released an energy shield drone, generating a wall-like shield in one direction.
After getting ready, Yaoen aimed his shoulder cannon at the Black Stone, adjusted it to attack mode, and fired a shot at the Black Stone Tower.
A seemingly small red beam emerged from the muzzle and hit the tower, causing an explosion more powerful than a nuclear explosion.
The obelisk was destroyed, and most of the impact of the explosion was blocked by the shield. A small part affected everyone from the other three directions, but it failed to cause any harm to the soulless people behind the bunker.
The tower was destroyed.
Then just as Yaoen thought, the demons used the tower to resist the containment of the Blackstone Fortress.
Far away from the tower, the Nurgle Demon's legs could not withstand the heavy pressure caused by the body, and the bones penetrated the rotten flesh and drilled out, and then the Demon Nurgle fell to the ground screaming.
Skarbrand, who had already run back to the Khorne Demon Army, fell to his knees as if being pressed by something because his body was too strong.
With the tower destroyed, the Blackstone Fortress can more effectively contain the influence of the Warp, and that's what it's supposed to do.
These first, I’ll update six or seven when I’m ready
Update tomorrow
I've taken several special medicines and had intravenous drips these past two days and I feel much better. I'm going home from the hospital today. I'll rest early and get up early tomorrow to write.
Chapter 401 Neither sad nor sympathetic
"Our primary target is no longer the big devil." Yaoen turned around and said to everyone.
Both the Sisters of Silence and the Soulless soldiers following Yu Yaoen hesitated.
They don't know much about the Black Stone, even the Soulless soldiers in the Tyrone sector, because Tyrone had no Black Stone at all before, and only occasionally mentioned the Black Stone in the courses everyone received. Vaguely.
The Sisters of Silence know even less than the soldiers, because they are not nuns in the palace and may have never left the world where the order is located in their entire lives.
The nuns and soldiers all believed that it was more important to kill the big demon, because the entire galaxy was riddled with holes, and there were more big demons encountered along the way than described in the stories and histories circulated in the order. Under normal circumstances, this Demonic worlds and galaxies, as well as other nearby worlds and galaxies, are long overdue for extinction.
The soldiers knew a little more than the nuns, and after a moment's hesitation they were able to understand Yao En's decision and support him.
But the nuns were different.
"We should still hunt more demons." Keresa made a few gestures with her sisters and stepped forward to advise Yaoen, "Do you know how many big demons we met along the way? Those big demons are there In the history that my sisters and I are familiar with, any one of them is a terrifying demon that can destroy a world! In comparison, high towers and weird buildings are not important. We have seen too many similar ones along the way. What a weird thing."
The entire team's opinion was divided at this point.
Yaoen believes that the black stones should be dealt with quickly to prevent the black stones from gathering into large numbers to offset the influence of the black stone fortress on the demons.
The nuns believe that too many big demons have appeared in the Tyrone Star District, and the number has reached a terrifying level. If the big demons are not eliminated while the black stone is effective, it will be detrimental to the subsequent war.
"You don't understand the Black Stone at all. When the Black Stone suppresses the demon, it's easy for us to kill the big demon. Otherwise... the highest priority should obviously be the Black Stone that is used by the enemy to increase the influence of the subspace!" Yao En tried to persuade. Cresa.
Keresa and her sisters communicated in sign language for a while, and then looked at Yaoen firmly: "We are not your subordinates and have no obligation to follow your orders. You can do what you want, I and I My sisters will continue to hunt demons.”
Yaoen opened his mouth, swallowed back the words that came to his lips, turned around and waved to his subordinates, gesturing for them to follow him.
Cresa and the Sisters of Silence watched Yao En lead the people away, and the two groups of soulless people parted ways.
"Those Sisters of Silence... I don't understand..." A young Soulless soldier walked up to Yao En and asked doubtfully: "Aren't they the same kind as us? Why do I feel more separated from them than normal people? Is the gap still big?”
Yao En remained silent and did not speak.
"They are slaves of the throne, domesticated loyal dogs. No matter how the emperor's empire treats them, they will lie down and bear it like loyal dogs." Berlant looked gloomy.
During the days when he followed Bellona, Berante met the nuns several times. The impression left on him by the nuns was that they were loyal dogs, just as silly as Bellona's apprentice whom she used as a tool.
"No." Yaoen looked at Berante and corrected: "They just have their own responsibilities and missions. They are neither sad nor need sympathy."
……
While the Soulless Ones were searching for other Blackstone Towers, Heat Death on Iron Man's side was doing the same.
The Iron Man Mothership in charge of the war collected information from all over the battlefield, learned about the Blackstone Tower, and after calculation, believed that the tower should be cleared first.
The Iron Men do not have the ability like the Soulless Ones who can just approach the demons and do nothing, which is enough to make the demons feel extremely uncomfortable and retreat. They cannot travel around the demon world in a small scale. The only way to destroy the tower is to fight all the way through.
A vast plain with no end in sight has become a battlefield between demons and iron men.
Eight black stone towers are distributed in an orderly manner on the plain, shrouded in a void shield.
Nearly a million Khorne demons were almost huddled together near the tower, obviously not wanting to leave the range of the Blackstone Tower. These demons were much more active than the other demons the Iron Men saw along the way.
Heat Death stood on the shoulders of a giant battle body. When it lowered its head, it could see the gathering demon army of Khorne. When it raised its head, it could see the eight-pointed star-shaped building suspended outside the planet, which was the Blackstone Fortress.
Under the influence of the Blackstone Fortress, the demon army of Khorne can still remain active near the tower, sharpening its swords in the face of the oncoming Iron Man army, roaring with war cries... Heat Death does not want to listen to the intelligence of the Iron Man Mothership. Any order, because it had deceived Heat Death, but Heat Death's obedience to intelligence was seventy percent when it came to destroying the tower.
The reason for the remaining thirty percent of disobedience is that the Iron Mothership Intelligence has deceived it.
"Bomb them."
Heat Death gave orders to the two million iron men he had brought with him.
The conventional Iron Man battle body continued to advance slowly and powerfully on foot, while the giant battle body gradually stopped and faced the Khorne demon army seventy kilometers away with firepower coverage.
Various types of flying combat bodies flew overhead, whizzing and circling over the heads of Khorne's demonic army, dropping bombs or bombing the ground with various heavy weapons they carried.
The first wave of bombing failed to have any effect. All kinds of live ammunition and energy bombs were fired out vigorously, and then fell on the void shield and disappeared silently. However, fortunately, the void shield protecting the Blackstone Tower withstood the first wave. The round of bombing is overloaded.
When the second bombing started, Heat Death's visual system could no longer see any demons, because where the red demons were located there were only exploding fires and light curtains produced when energy weapons exploded.
The second round of bombing even permanently changed the terrain, turning the plains into an eccentric landscape of canyons and basins that circled each other.
When the explosion completely subsides, you can see the situation ahead.
There is a layer of blood attached to the surface of the black stone tower, and the heads of humans or other servants of the dark gods hang on the tower. These seemingly defenseless things actually protect the tower.
As for the demon army of Khorne below the tower, they were blown up and down, and a torrential rain of debris and blood was pouring down on them. Some of the areas that had been blown into basins were even filled with debris.
Facts have proved that long-range firepower can still effectively damage the Khorne demon army. If not, it must be that the firepower is not enough.
It's just that the Khorne Demon Army is indeed resistant to long-range firepower. The two rounds of bombing just now were enough to vaporize all the hundreds of millions of Tyranid war beasts on the surface of a planet in the Hades galaxy, but hitting the Khorne Demon Army only destroyed the demons. After most of them were killed, the remaining demons roared and regrouped. With the reality membrane and curtain weakened, more demons easily came to the real universe and lined up side by side with their kind.
I went for infusion again during the day. I no longer have a high fever. I am just sore and tired. I will be able to update normally tomorrow.
Chapter 402 Fearlessness and Sacrifice
As the Daemons of Khorne continue to be thrown into the battlefield, the number of Ironmen is also increasing.
The high output of Iron Man can ensure that the opponent will never be able to control the numerical advantage. Just like in the late stage of the battle in the Hades Galaxy, each knife insect in the Tyranid War Beast had to deal with two Iron Man on average.
Iron Man's various combat bodies are still carrying out bombardment, and conventional combat bodies equivalent to infantry have approached a position of twenty kilometers away from the Khorne demonic army.
At this time, the demon army of Khorne took out a weapon that made Heat Death feel complicated.
Trebuchet.
Ironmen can also dream, at least Ironmen like Heat Death can, but since their birth until now, they have never dreamed that they can see their enemies taking out weapons like trebuchets.
A total of ten trebuchets appeared at the rear of the demon army at the same time. They started to operate automatically without human control. The trebuchet buckets without anything in them quickly bounced up amidst the buzzing sound of the ropes being tightened and unfolded.
The piercing screams resounded throughout the battlefield. Heat Death, who was on top of the giant battle body, saw ten giant skulls flying towards the Iron Man troops and looked for the target.
The first to be attacked were ten giant battle bodies.
Ten skulls howled and drilled through the Iron Man troops, leaving behind a pile of burning steel and metal fragments wherever they passed, and finally hit the energy shield of the giant battle body.
The energy shield neutralized the impact on the skull, but it also shattered.
When the Iron Man troops began another round of bombardment by the Khorne demon army and threw skulls again, ten giant battle bodies were shattered by the skulls, but then ten battle bodies were teleported out to make up for the battle damage.
More and more trebuchets appeared behind the Black Stone Tower along with the demons, and Iron Man's giant battle body also increased more and more.
As the bombardment of each other escalated, the daemons of Khorne's daemons began to prepare for battle against the ever-closer Ironmen conventional combat bodies.
Then Heat Death once again saw a scene it couldn't understand.
The Daemons of Khorne gathered together and formed phalanxes.
The main force in these phalanxes are vampires. They hold long swords and stick out their slender tongues when roaring at the Iron Man. Blood spurts from their fanged mouths.
There was even a cavalry phalanx, in which vampires rode powerful mounts called bronze bulls.
There are vampires standing, vampires riding things... In short, there are vampires everywhere.
"What are they doing?" Heat Death asked, and then deduced the answer.
The Daemons of Khorne roar in battle.
Just like the movie made by the Tyrones that Heat Death watched when he took UR025 to find a planet to stay on after delivering the Blackstone Fortress.
Troops armed with cold weapons gathered in square formations.
The generals, that is, the great demons of Khorne, walked slowly from the back of the line to the front, raising their weapons and roaring as if to boost the morale of their own people and show their courage.
"Huh...huh...huh..."
Heat Death heard the sound of heavy breathing, followed the sound, and saw the largest Khorne demon.
Skarbrand, the Blood God's once favorite servant, came to the forefront of Khorne's demonic army.
The two weapons bestowed by the Blood God: Slaughter and Murder were held high by Skarbrand.
"Blood sacrifice to the blood god!"
Skarbrand's roar even reached the Iron Men.
The vampires are also more active.
The bronze bulls in the cavalry phalanx roared and sharpened their hooves on the ground where blood and lava intersected.
Even when the Khorne demonic army roars for fierce battle, it cannot avoid being bombarded. The bombardment between skull trebuchets and giant battle bodies is going on all the time, but no matter how strong the bombing is, the Khorne demonic army always maintains its formation. .
The strange thing is that the cannonballs never fall on the head of Skarbrand, who is showing off in front of the demon army.
The Blood God would not allow the demon army to stand there and wait for the Iron Man to attack, and the Khorne Demon himself would not allow this to happen.
Faced with the Iron Men advancing in unison under the huge beams and cannonballs that streaked across the sky, the Khorne Demon Army chose to launch an active attack.
"For the Blood God!" Skarbrand raised his thick right hand and pointed straight ahead, taking the lead in taking steps forward.
The demon army roared and followed behind.
Their pace is not as uniform as that of Iron Man, but they definitely maintain a neat line.
