Invincible after death, but in Warhammer 40K

Chapter 171: Chapter 171: Necrons



After the team advanced at full speed for a while, the corner mentioned by the Severed-Arm Space Marine soon appeared in front of them.

But when everyone was fully prepared and passed this corner, they did not encounter the imagined attack.

While Zhang Ge had Amilia come to the front to be on guard, he whispered to the White-Helm Sergeant:

"The place where it happened wasn't here?"

Generally speaking, if the opposite person was a Space Marine, and he did not mention which corner was specifically referred to by the broad term "corner" when exchanging information, then it was likely that there was only one corner in the described place, or the so-called corner had very obvious characteristics, so that it could be recognized at a glance without special description.

With this in mind, Zhang Ge did not ask too much, but now that he thought about the other party's character, it was possible that he had really forgotten to say it.

But the White-Helm Sergeant's next reply overturned this guess. He shook his head and replied:

"Although there were no obvious signs of attack, the concentration of free-floating particles detected was significantly higher than the surrounding environment. This should be the place."

In other words, had the attacker left?

That meant another, even worse situation.

A strike with a reaction speed faster than a Space Marine's... Zhang Ge originally thought that this attack came from some kind of fixed defensive facility of the Necrons, but now it seemed that since that thing could leave the scene on its own, the source of the attack had changed from a fixed turret to some kind of advanced unit.

Was it bad luck to run into a dynasty that had been awake for a while? Or was the dynasty's wealth so abundant that it could pull out elites in the first wave of awakening?

Thinking of these two delightful possibilities, Zhang Ge just turned his head back, intending to ask Amilia if she had found any other traces, but he suddenly heard some kind of unusual sound.

It was... vibration?

No.

It was a tearing sound.

At this moment, even Zhang Ge had realized this, let alone the others.

Amilia had already turned around in the moment when Zhang Ge's mind was still processing what that information was. Without hesitation, she brought Zhang Ge up, hugged him, and turned around the corner at extreme speed, then activated the Jump Pack and flew straight back the way they came.

And it was in the next moment when she activated the Jump Pack that the tearing sound had already come to the front of everyone.

A green Ghostlight Emissions easily swept through countless heavy metals as if it had not encountered any obstacles. The place where Zhang Ge and others were standing had turned into a bottomless rift in an instant.

It should be known that this was inside a completely metal Isolation Wall.

Moreover, this was not the end. At the edge of that rift, the green light was further decomposing any material around the trajectory of the beam, further expanding the already terrifying rift several times over.

Looking at the huge valley caused by some unknown weapon in front of them, just as everyone was wondering what to do next, the tearing sound came out again, deafeningly.

The source of the sound appeared in front of everyone.

It was a building... a moving building.

It was shaped like a pyramid, with a black base and deep green patterns all over the shell, surging with strands of energy that flowed like blood, and finally converging towards a giant multifaceted green crystal at the tip of the tower.

And the tearing sound of today was exactly what it caused.

Its huge body was slowly and steadily moving forward along the huge metal rift that had just been opened. Although this movement itself did not produce any noise, since it was too huge, the lower part had begun to be larger than the width of the rift, so the metal structures were being squeezed open during the movement, creating a tearing noise.

Tomb Obelisk.

Although its image was different from the standard model, Zhang Ge still corresponded it to the words in his memory at the moment of its appearance.

This time, they ran into something big.

This was the second thought in this moment.

After coming back to his senses, confirming that everyone was unharmed, and looking at the Tomb Obelisk passing by in front of him, Zhang Ge said without hesitation:

"You guys retreat!"

But just as the other three began to step back towards the entrance, Zhang Ge ran towards the Obelisk instead.

He wanted to jump on it.

Yes, jump on it.

The Obelisk in front of him did not seem to be in a sober state. It should still be in a daze and blindly wandering due to the prolonged hibernation. The attack behavior just now was likely because everyone had just bumped into the path it was originally planning to open, and was not aimed at them.

Otherwise, if it had noticed everyone and planned to eliminate them, then this beam would not be so straightforward. Turning a corner slightly could have turned all four of them into free-floating particles in the air.

Now, it was certainly feasible to retreat together to transmit a request for assistance, but at the same time, this was also likely to be the best attack window to eliminate this alien creation.

To say that three people were enough to transmit a request for assistance, no matter what.

Therefore, Zhang Ge wanted to be the person responsible for taking advantage of this attack window.

With a sufficient reason and close at hand, how could he retreat in this situation?

Considering that Zhang Ge was just a semi-ordinary person who had been blessed not long ago, the only possible way for him to try to destroy this thing was to jump on it.

In the case of long-range strikes, none of the weapons in their hands could cause effective damage to this thing. Its entirety was composed of self-healing living metal. Even ordinary Heavy Weapons Support would be quickly restored to its initial state after hitting it.

So, for a single soldier, there were generally two feasible solutions.

First, jump on top of it, find a weak spot, and enter the interior after opening it, and then destroy its important components inside.

But Zhang Ge had no time to find a weak spot. Once this Obelisk reacted, its surrounding secondary gun arrays could easily turn him into powder.

Therefore, he chose the second, second option:

Directly climb to the top and blow up that crystal.

When Zhang Ge brushed past the other three, they also understood Zhang Ge's thoughts at the same time... As said before, three people were more than enough to be responsible for conveying the request for assistance, so why not reduce it to just enough for one person?

Amilia said to Isis in a short and extremely fast tone:

"You go."

Then, she turned back with the White-Helm Sergeant.

At Zhang Ge's side, before he could be happy for long, the two who were far faster than him had already swept past.

The White-Helm Sergeant's movements could still be seen barely, but Amilia had already become a light and shadow.

He secretly said that it was not good and wanted to repeat the order, but he suddenly remembered:

That's right, he didn't seem to have a superior-subordinate relationship with these two people, they just listened to him before.

Thinking of this, Zhang Ge cursed secretly in his heart, but he could only swallow the words back, saving that strength and increasing his speed by a few points again
