Chapter 974, Falling Like a Meteor

Robert's sword that injured Magnus not only shocked the demon prince, but also shocked Gu Jing who was rushing to the battlefield.

Gu Jing could even guess Magnus's thoughts.

To others, he was just the Son of God, holding the Emperor's Sword and wielding something like 'sword energy'. Although it was surprising, it was actually quite normal - wasn't it a declaration of the Emperor's blessing to his loyal son?

But that was a recognition brought on by religious reverence. The more profound one's psychic knowledge, the more they realized that nothing in the world was simply imagined. Under normal circumstances, even a combination of the Son of God and the Emperor's Sword wouldn't be able to wield such a sword.

Robert's subspace nature has nothing to do with psychic power and has never been awakened, so there will be no such effect.

Could it be that part of his subspace essence has awakened?

Or maybe it was really the Emperor's supreme power that penetrated the barriers of the Kingdom of God, but helped Robert in some imperceptible way?

It is hard to understand, which is why even knowledgeable people are shocked.

Besides being shocked, Gu Jing and Magnus had completely different thoughts.

Magnus was angry because he was hurt, and he was panicked and terrified by the possibility that it was his father, whom he hated and absolutely did not want to meet, who was helping him.

But Gu Jing was simply happy.

The moment the battle broke out and he realized that something big had happened here, he rushed to the ground at full speed.

He had to provide Robert with some help.

Before this, he hadn't participated in the war, but had been stationed aboard the ship, acting as an advisor, shouldering duties similar to those of a chief of staff, helping Robert formulate battle plans and manage logistics. This was certainly a slight waste of his powerful psychic abilities, but it also allowed him to utilize his strengths in another direction.

If possible, Gu Jing would be happy to stay out of the battle.

Unfortunately, it doesn’t work.

If it was another 'god devil' that came, it might be less of a problem. However, Magnus was different. Counting all the god devils—no, even if you counted all the gods, demons, and demon princes—he could almost be said to be one of the most outstanding psionic masters.

Possessing astonishing wisdom, he was already a formidable psychic master before his fall. Not only was he a quick learner of various psychic techniques and control methods, but he could also draw inferences from one instance, deriving his own path and achieving groundbreaking feats.

After his fall, he became a demon and immersed himself in the source of psychic energy - the Warp - for ten thousand years. With the blessing of Tzeentch, he would probably become far more powerful than before.

In fact, other "divine evils" are similar - except that the special elf ability is exclusive to Magnus.

And it was this point, in Gu Jing's judgment, that was extremely fatal to Robert.

Magnus was an almost unbeatable foe for Robert.

Even if the "Evil God" and the "Son of God" are indeed at the same level, Robert, the Son of God who is most powerful in planning, formulating economic policies, and commanding the army, will not have a high chance of winning if he fights Magnus.

If it were any other 'divine evil', Robert would have made some achievements as a warrior. His swordsmanship and experience as a warrior were quite extensive. While not top-tier, with the aid of the Emperor's Sword, he could still put up a fight.

However, when facing Magnus... Gu Jing was really afraid that Robert would have a hard time even getting close to him.

This is indeed how things developed until the appearance of a flaming sword that could be released from a long distance and penetrate psychic shields.

Magnus was obviously frightened and became a little hesitant.

There are good and bad things.

The suppression Robert suffered was obviously not as strong, but at the same time, Magnus, who no longer moved forward and even became cautious and slightly retreated, would no longer be easily threatened.

He was also prepared for the flaming sword energy. In addition, Robert couldn't always achieve a similar effect as he wished every time he was furious. This move had a certain degree of randomness...

All in all, Robert is still no match for Magnus.

But at least he persisted until Gu Jing arrived.

Gu Jing was like a meteor falling from the sky. Anti-aircraft fire bombarded him, but it was meaningless.

Even though Magnus half raised his head and blasted a beam of psychic energy into the sky, he was unable to stop the meteor from falling to the ground.

The 'meteor' that hit the ground hard released powerful energy, knocking over a group of demons. At the same time, a film of light enveloped the now small number of infinite warriors to prevent them from being harmed.

With this blow, countless demons were expelled back to the subspace!

What brought the greatest help to the current situation was that with this one smash, half of the subspace rifts were closed!

This directly caused a huge change in the scene: first, a particularly large gap appeared in the cleared battlefield, allowing the human troops who were originally blocked at the back to move forward quickly and provide support.

The Infinite Warriors, whose numbers had been constantly eroding in the battle, received valuable support and were pulled back from the brink of destruction. At the same time, they also brought strong support to Robert - at least now Robert no longer had to waste energy dealing with small fry and could focus on resisting the influence of the Chaos sorcery cast upon him by Magnus.

Another point is that the number of demons rushing out has been greatly reduced.

But later on, it would not be so easy for Magnus to tear open more subspace cracks easily.

Because Gu Jing arrived.

To be honest, in the past, when Gu Jing faced an opponent like Magnus in a battle of this level, although he would not be unable to participate in the battle, he would most likely just be a bystander.

Although he himself is a top-level psychic, he is just a psychic.

Although he had a Tzeentchian demon that was captured by his father and made into a combat assistant and given to him to strengthen his power.

But that's all.

Is the strength of a Tzeentchian Archdemon plus an Alpha-level psyker enough to fight against the "divine evil"?

Quite difficult.

But after Comoros was taken, his father got a piece of the so-called fragment of the Eldar god from somewhere.

That’s awesome.

With the addition of this fragment, representing the divine power of 'despair' in his hands, his individual strength has also crossed a certain threshold and reached the level of a divine evil and the son of God!

Now, he is not only qualified to participate in battles at this level, but can even have a key impact on the outcome of the battle!
