In just less than two or three hours, the two sides launched a battle in multiple dimensions including outer space, within the atmosphere, on the ground, and underground, on a scale far beyond their imagination.
Especially since no matter how many casualties there are, the terrifying number of them will be replenished immediately and continuously. It seems like they are endless and can continue until the end of time and the destruction of the universe.
Although under the control of the hive mind, the Zerg appears to be much superior to the relatively chaotic and disorderly Orcs in terms of tactics and organization.
If it were ordinary orcs, no matter how many there were, they would be consumed bit by bit in the battle with the Zerg and become biomass for the Zerg to grow themselves.
It is even possible that the Hive Mind will intentionally spread the Orcs throughout the universe because of their unique and rapid reproduction ability, and then harvest them every once in a while, just like farmers planting crops and herders raising livestock.
In fact, in the Milky Way, when the Tyranids encounter the Orks, they are basically crushed.
But the problem is that the Shuo Oil makes up for the biggest weakness of the Perfected Orcs when facing the Tyranids, which is their flesh and blood.
No insect dared to devour the corpse of a dead orc.
Because once swallowed, it means that the spark oil will enter the insect's body along with the biomass, and then completely transform it from the inside, breaking away from the control of the hive mind and becoming a part of New Phyrexia.
What's even more terrible is that if the one being transformed is a node creature, then under the effect of the "Intai Network", other insects around it will also be out of the control of the hive's will.
Coupled with the surging "waaaaagh force field" and "my thinking power" after getting excited, the originally collapsing front line of the human empire quickly became stable.
It even managed to push back successfully in some places.
The massive losses also forced the swarm to begin consuming the biomass previously collected from slaughtering humans, pets, poultry, livestock, and wildlife.
Because once the insect's body is contaminated by the oil, it can no longer be recovered.
Obviously, from the perspective of a war of attrition, the army of perfected orcs has already firmly gained the upper hand.
As long as the existing front is maintained to prevent the Zerg from invading densely populated hives to launch a massacre and obtain new biomass, it will not be long before the Zerg Hive Mind chooses to retreat because the cost and reward are completely disproportionate.
Of course, the above are just normal circumstances.
But Zuo Si observed that this time the massive invasion of the Tyranids was obviously not "normal".
First of all, the scale and number of the Zerg nest far exceeded the scale of the first invasion of the Milky Way. At a glance, all around were numerous biological warships that were flying towards this star system with the help of gravity and gravitational force. It gave people the feeling that they didn't care about casualties at all and were just trying to achieve a certain goal.
Secondly, even after losing so many troops and being unable to obtain biomass replenishment, the Hive Mind still had no intention of retreating and continued to launch frantic attacks under the leadership of the Hive Tyrant.
The completely transformed orcs were completely excited, and their eyes were filled with excitement and enthusiasm that could not be described in words. They were in an irrepressible happiness and joy, just like they were on chicken blood or drugs.
The waaaaagh force field has seriously distorted the rules of the real universe.
There was even an orc master who used a bunch of messy insect corpses to piece together a Godzilla-like monster. It could shoot out unknown rays from its mouth and eyes that were as powerful as the main guns of heavy battleships. One shot could instantly clear out everything within several kilometers in front.
In addition, all kinds of messy, abstract but incredibly powerful things will often appear somewhere on the battlefield.
Of course, the Tyranids, who had almost conquered the universe, were not to be outdone and also fused large amounts of biomass together to create the towering Zerg Titan.
The smallest of them can rival the knight mechas of the human empire, and their numbers are increasing at a rate visible to the naked eye.
This is obviously not the usual style of the absolutely rational Hive Will.
Because any commander who knows something about the green-skinned orcs knows that they must never be allowed to fight to their heart's content at any time.
Instead, the idea is to disgust them and make them feel uncomfortable, and then drag the war into a non-contact type with an extremely slow pace and full of traps, sneak attacks, and cold guns and cold artillery, and then find a way to assassinate the top leader and ultimately achieve the goal of plunging them into civil strife.
Otherwise, even if you win, you will suffer heavy losses.
But now the will of the hive is clearly doing the opposite.
The last and most important point is that Zuo Si could feel that the subspace fluctuations in the entire star region had completely stopped.
This means that the huge shadow of the Hive Mind has completely enveloped the subspace in the area and is constantly watching the direction of the war.
Adhering to the principle of not moving unless the enemy moves, he did not rush to personally clean up the biological warships that were constantly flying towards this place from the ground or even from outer space. Instead, he silently watched the battle situation on more than one hundred and fifty planets in the entire star region, wondering what the Zerg Will wanted to do.
He doesn't think that a population of just tens of trillions or even hundreds of trillions is worth the other side making such a big fuss.
What's more, judging from the current number of refugees in all the nest cities, due to the timely rescue, the insects only ate less than three-fifths of them at most, and almost half of them managed to survive.
Don’t think that this number is not large.
In fact, according to the records of the Human Empire, when a planet or star region was invaded by the Tyranids, even if one-tenth or even several-tenths of the survivors could survive with the timely arrival of reinforcements, it was considered a very good result.
There's nothing we can do about it, these guys' hunting efficiency is just so high.
"Great Father of New Phyrexia, do you need to ask the recently formed Complete Sliver Legion and Superman's Son Legion to join the battlefield?"
Vashtor suddenly appeared out of nowhere and asked in an uncertain tone.
Needless to say, the fully-transformed orc army was just the first chess piece thrown out to test the reaction of the Tyranids.
He always likes to make multiple preparations, so he won't reveal all his cards at once.
"Jinji Tasha has already created a complete fragmentation monster?"
There was a hint of surprise in Zuo Si's tone.
After all, it hasn’t been long since the successful capture of the organized sliver demons in the Shandra space-time, and the Blue Demon Judge is responsible for much more than just this one research.
He was a little bit unconvinced that the other party's actions could be so fast.
Vashtor grinned and replied, “Yes.
Jingitashya is worthy of being the most proficient in scientific research among all the judges in New Phyrexia.
Not only did he solve the problem of rapid reproduction after completion in a very short time, but he also retained the Sliver Demon's most powerful adaptability and evolution speed.
The only small problem is that it is not yet possible to create a queen similar to the Hive Mind.
If we can solve the last problem, our Sliver Legion will surpass the Tyranids and become another form of Scourge.
Baptized by the sacred oil, they will become more dangerous and powerful than before."
Zuo Si nodded with satisfaction: "Well done.
It looks like it won't be long before I can start working on weakening or even eliminating the Tyranids in this universe.
But now is not the time to let them appear.
Because the moment the Sliver appeared, it was the signal for me to declare war on the Hive Mind.
Before that, I need to figure out what the Hive Mind is and how powerful it can be.
Oh, by the way, with the secrets of the Star God completely uncovered, it is time to awaken the Star Soul of Azeroth ahead of time."
"Now?"
There was a bright fire in Vashtor's eyes.
"Let's wait until the war with the Tyranids is over. After all, I still need you to control the situation and use the cave tree to transport more troops when necessary."
After saying that, Zuo Si descended directly from the sky above the nest city.
His body, as dazzling as the starry sky, instantly attracted the attention of all the humans below.
However, to the disappointment of the star governor, the incarnation of Shuoyou did not enter the hive city, but landed near the battlefield outside the hive city's defense circle.
To be precise, it was beside the Astartes warrior who had voluntarily stayed behind to cover their retreat.
At this moment, the veteran had lost his ability to move because the reactor of his power mecha was completely destroyed. He lay straight on the ground, his limbs and body suffering from fractures, ruptured internal organs and heavy bleeding due to being trampled by the fully transformed orcs.
If it were an ordinary person, he would have been dead by now.
It was not known whether it was fortunate or unfortunate, but just when he was about to die at the hands of the insects, the first group of fully transformed orcs emerged from the cave tree portal and launched a fierce attack on the insect swarm.
Especially the first round of volleys, which almost killed the node creature.
But the problem was that these orcs were so excited about the battle that they didn't notice that he was still alive and just rushed forward in their power armor.
If it weren't for the high quality of the ceramic steel armor, it would have been turned into meat paste by being stepped on by hundreds of thousands of orcs.
But the ceramic steel armor obviously cannot protect the joints, and part of the pressure generated by stepping on it is also borne by the body.
Now the old Astartes could only lie on the ground and watch the war between the fully evolved orcs and the Zerg not far ahead. He felt a strong sense of unreality and absurdity.
Because he would never have dreamed that one day he would be rescued by orcs.
What's even more ridiculous is that after the other party saved me, he almost killed me accidentally.
“Hehehe…
I never thought that fate would play such a big joke on me before I died.
If this is a dream, I hope to forget it completely when I wake up.
But it doesn’t matter, the girl has been saved anyway.
And I have completed my mission, it is time to report to the Supreme God Emperor."
The old soldier laughed weakly in his last moments.
Just as he felt his vision becoming increasingly blurry and his thinking becoming slow, a voice suddenly echoed in his mind.
"As a truly loyal warrior, your life should end here."
The next second...
An astonishing energy passed through the power mecha and enveloped the Astartes warrior.
Before he could react to what was happening, his body began to recover at a speed visible to the naked eye. Not only did the broken bones, ruptured internal organs and heavy bleeding all disappear, but the damaged reactor also began to provide energy again under the influence of an unknown force.
In just a few seconds, the crashed system restarted and made a shrill noise.
"This is……"
The veteran was obviously shocked by this change and looked up to confirm who had saved him.
But just as he was about to stand up, a big hand took off the helmet, revealing a terrifying face that could scare a child to tears.
Whether it was his skin that was darker than that of Africans, the light in his eyes, or the sharp bony ridges on his head, they all made him look not like a human being, but some kind of alien creature.
The Astartes warriors also clearly saw the incarnation of the shining oil that had integrated the power of the star god.
The two looked at each other for a few seconds before Zuo Si sighed and said, "As I expected, you are the offspring of Vulcan, the Lord of the Salamanders. Only you and those Smurfs would choose to sacrifice yourselves to protect the civilians."
"You are Lord Soth, the father of New Phyrexia?"
The veteran was obviously a little hesitant to confirm the identity of Shuoyou's incarnation.
Because the last time he saw him, he was quite different from what he is now.
“Yeah, that’s right, it’s me.
From this moment on, I take over the battle.
If nothing unexpected happens, it won't be long before the Imperial Regent Robert Guilliman and the Imperial reinforcements arrive.
In addition, the Necrons will also send fleets to join.
You may now return to the hive and report to the Moff."
Zuo Si very kindly gave a brief explanation to the Astartes warrior of the Salamanders.
You should know that the gene seed of Vulkan, the Lord of the Salamanders, is the least stable and most mutated among the eighteen legions, without a doubt.
Fortunately, this mutation is not a negative mutation like the Blood Angels and the Wolf Pack, but a relatively benign mutation.
The only drawback is that their appearance is too terrifying, making it difficult for civilians not to feel fear towards the members of the Salamanders.
After all, in the process of interpersonal communication, the first impression brought by appearance is very important.
But the interesting thing is that it is precisely this group of ferocious-looking guys who are one of the legions with the best attitude towards civilians among all the Astartes legions.
In particular, the father of genes, Vulkan, the lord of the fire lizards, once publicly stated that his descendants would never be allowed to use any biological, chemical, or radiation weapons, and that wars should be conducted more humanely.
He is almost a role model of morality among all the brothers, the only Primarch who can be compared with Saint Jarles.
Under the influence of this Gene-Father, members of the Salamanders would never callously ignore civilian casualties in war like most Astartes warriors, but would take the initiative to protect civilians and even cover their evacuation.
"You want me to leave the battlefield?"
The veteran glanced at the battle line in the distance, which was fighting back and forth, and was obviously unwilling to retreat in such a disgraceful manner.
Zuo Si smiled and asked, "What else? Do you want to fight alongside those green-skinned orcs who don't recognize their relatives and will even kill their own companions when they go crazy?"
Before he finished speaking!
A fully transformed orc who was high on fighting suddenly took out a thick and long tube from somewhere, grabbed a fart spirit and stuffed it into the tube, then aimed it forward and pulled the trigger.
boom!!!!!!!!
I saw a space crack that tore apart everything within a hundred meters ahead, including enemies and friends, and parts, flesh, blood, and shiny oil splattered everywhere.
He killed even more of his own people than his enemies.
In fact, such "accidental injuries" are countless in the battles between green-skinned orcs.
The number of unlucky people who were accidentally crushed to death by Gu Juji is too numerous to count.
I have to say that watching the green-skinned orcs fight is exciting and full of strange surprises.
Because you never know what outrageous weapons these guys will make or what outrageous things they will do on a whim.
The corners of the Astartes' mouth twitched uncontrollably after witnessing this scene, but he soon smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I think it's better to forget it. If I were to be killed by these guys from behind by mistake, I would die with regrets."
"Very good, then do as I say. Stay in the hive and don't come out. Because what happens here next may be far beyond your imagination."
After saying that, Zuo Si's gaze penetrated the physical universe and locked onto the huge shadow in the subspace - the Hive Mind.
Likewise, the hive mind also locked onto him.
The increase in intensity on both sides began from this moment on.
"Hahahaha! Fight! Fight! More and more intense fighting!"
“These bugs are so awesome!”
"You're right! We really had a great time today! Come on! Keep going! Don't stop!"
"Where's the squeak cannon? Pull it up quickly! Mine is completely broken and can't be used!"
"Get out of the way! I'll fix it for you and make a renovation at the same time!"
"Fighting - awesome!"
"waaaaagh!"
“waaaaaaaaagh!!!!!”
…
With shouts and roars coming one after another, the orcs on the front line fell into complete madness.
To be precise, it should be the state of being extremely happy and ecstatic.
The eyes of some orcs even began to turn red, and their bodies expanded at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Especially those guys who were angry after being injured, each of them turned into a small Hulk and rushed through the swarm of insects, wantonly destroying everything in their way.
The unique biomass and genes immediately drove the hive mind crazy, and it surrounded and killed these extremely valuable targets at all costs.
Needless to say, it wants to seize this gene and use it on its own insect swarm.
To be exact it succeeded.
Although the destructive power of these little Hulks is quite terrifying, they will become stronger and stronger in fierce battles.
But they are not the real Hulk after all, they are just inferior imitations that carry some of his genes.
When a Hive Tyrant with powerful psychic powers appeared on the battlefield, some seriously injured individuals were quickly suppressed, dismembered, and taken back to the nest in the rear for research and replication.
But Zuo Si was not in a hurry at all. Instead, he watched the changes on the battlefield with great interest.
The result was just as he expected. These Zerg units with Hulk genes integrated into them, apart from being stronger, having higher defense and having full-level radiation resistance, could not pose any substantial threat to the externalized orc army.
Soon, they were all reduced to ashes under the fierce long-range firepower coverage.
The reason is very simple, that is, the Hulk gene will only exert its true power when it produces strong anger.
But the Tyranids don't even have self-awareness or emotions, so how could they possibly feel angry?
"Gene stealing? Interesting. But you didn't think I would send this army of perfected orcs into battle without thinking of that, did you?"
There was an obvious hint of mockery in Zuo Si's tone.
"Do you think you can win on the battlefield?"
A strange and malicious voice suddenly echoed in my mind.
Zuo Si immediately confirmed that it was the Hive Will that was talking to him, and immediately responded with a sneer, "Of course! In front of Shuoyou, your most proud numbers and consumption tactics of seizing biomass will not work at all. If I were you, I should consider retreating now."
"Humph! Ignorant and arrogant! Do you think this little loss will make me back down? No! My swarm of insects is endless and can completely submerge this galaxy."
The Hive Mind issued naked and undisguised threats and intimidation.
Of course, as the natural scourge and overlord of this universe, it does have such qualifications.
"Come on, let's wait and see how the battle will develop. I'm also very curious, when the number of Zerg reaches a certain level, can you release a more powerful force as Silent King Szalak described."
Zuo Si chose to accept the challenge without hesitation.
"You will regret it! No one can stop the swarm from advancing! As for the spark oil, I will find a way to deal with it soon."
After saying this, the voice of the Hive Will completely disappeared.
"Solve the problem of oil? You are so arrogant! I want to see what you can do with biotechnology."
Zuo Si undoubtedly did not take the other party's threat seriously.
开什么玩笑! 就连上古旅法师和一众神明都无法搞定约格莫夫创造的旧烁油,更不用提他经过不断改良强化后的新烁油。
如果虫巢意志真能做到这一点,那这个宇宙的银河系就彻底没救了。
什么太空死灵、亚空间邪神、人类之主,赶紧洗洗睡吧。
只要虫巢意志完全降临,一切抵抗都是徒劳的。
……
与此同时,远在星区首府外太空的恒星系边缘。
手办王塔拉辛所率领的太空死灵舰队已经抵达了相应的位置,正在火力全开的对借助重力和引力向行星飞去的生物战舰展开一轮又一轮的齐射。
可即便如此,拦截率依旧不足二十分之一。
因为敌人的数量实在是太多了。
有些甚至开始跳帮进入到太空死灵的飞船内部展开贴身肉搏。
“该死!虫巢意志这是疯了吗?”
塔拉辛目瞪口呆注视着外面一艘艘被打爆的生物战舰,满脸都是难以置信的表情。
因为他原本以为人类帝国口中的大举入侵,充其量也就是上一次的规模,依旧只是对方的前锋触手。
可往往没想到这次居然真格的了。
那铺天盖地的虫群数量,几乎把这片星区都给淹没了。
甚至就连那些没有生命居住的星球和小行星带,都被虫子们占领并改造成要塞和前进基地。
“我们现在应该怎么办? 向伟大的寂静王求援? 还是释放星神碎片?
假如照这个样子发展下去,以现如今舰队的规模,恐怕用不了几分钟就得被打到撤退。”
一名太空死灵高级指挥官向自家霸主发出了疑问。
“给我接通寂静王!这显然就是他之前曾经提到过一次的真正入侵。”
塔拉辛在思索片刻之后最终选择了向斯扎拉克求援。
毕竟他原本来参加这场战争为的就是找点乐子,顺便看看能不能顺手找到点有收藏价值的目标。
至于跟无穷无尽的虫群拼命……
不好意思,那可不是手办王会干的事情。
作为一个长年有几十个分身和备用分身的家伙,他可不会拿自己的小命开玩笑。
尤其是在能够重新体会到拥有灵魂的感觉后,他打算好好享受一下真正的生活。
大概十几秒钟之后,斯扎拉克的面孔出现在通讯器的屏幕上。
才刚一接通,他的声音就立刻透过扬声器质问道:“发生了什么?我不是告诉过你如果没有特别重要的事情最好别来打搅我吗?”
塔拉辛一脸无奈的摊了摊手:“我也不想打搅您,但问题是这次虫族的入侵规模远远超出了预料。多说无益,您还是自己看吧。”
说罢,他直接将所有拍摄到的画面展示出来。
不到五分钟的功夫,寂静王就目睹了那铺天盖地的数量,还有完化兽人大军与虫群交战时的壮烈场景。
“这怎么可能?!大吞噬者是从什么地方调来了如此多的舰队?我明明已经在银河系附近的几个星系设置了警戒哨所!”
向来喜欢保持威严、优雅和淡定的斯扎拉克非常罕见的出现了失态。
“也许你建立的哨所都已经被毁了。
眼下我们面临的选择是要不要加入这场战争。
要知道目前索斯虽然稳住了局势,但随着虫群数量的不断众多,虫巢意志很快就能达到可以降临的程度。
一旦他战败了,我可不确定银河系中是否还有第二个存在可以抵挡大吞噬者。”
塔拉辛的语气中明显带着一丝紧张,再也没有半点平日里的幽默感和嬉皮笑脸。
因为他很清楚,如果整个银河系被泰伦虫族所占据,那么自己辛苦收藏的那些东西将不再有任何意义。
寂静王斯扎拉克沉默了好一会儿,紧跟着直截了当询问道:“你觉得索斯还能支撑多久?”
塔拉辛摇了摇头回答道:“抱歉,我也不清楚。
因为他显然有从其他时空抽调兵力的能力。
但可以去肯定的是他目前还没有亮出自己真正的底牌。
另外,您难道不觉得这些兽人看起来十分的眼熟吗?”
“眼熟?”
斯扎拉克明显愣了一下,紧跟着脑海中瞬间浮现出当年在天堂之战的时候加入古圣阵营中的古兽人。
这些强壮、勇敢、从不畏惧疼痛和死亡的超级战士,曾经给太空死灵造成了巨大的麻烦与伤亡。
尽管后来他们因为某些不知名的原因退化成现如今的绿皮兽人,但仍旧成为整个银河系中最令人感到头疼的敌人。
而眼下正在与泰伦虫族激战的完化兽人,显然已经有了些古兽人的影子。
甚至在很多方面比古兽人更加强大。
借助烁油的力量,他们可以把任何脑海中的想法变成现实,再利用waaaaagh力场进行强化。
沉默了一小会儿,寂静王这才重新张开嘴感叹道:“你说的没错,的确相当眼熟。真想不到索斯居然像古圣一样驯化了兽人为自己所用。我很好奇,他还能从那颗有趣的参天巨树里边召唤出什么东西来。”
“这种玩笑您还是不要开的比较好。因为我有预感,当他再次从其他时空召唤自己的军团时,肯定会让整个银河系为之震撼、颤抖。”
塔拉辛盯着另外一个屏幕上洞境树枝干的画面说出了自己内心之中最真实的感受。
因为这种能够穿越黑暗虚空将多元宇宙连接在一起的东西,完全超出了他所能理解的范畴。
尤其是枝干穿越黑暗虚空时所携带的少量原始物质与混乱能量,对于这个宇宙的生物来说简直就是最致命的毒药。
哪怕是沾染上一丁点都会迅速被扭曲,变成敌我不分只知道吞噬和杀戮的怪物。
有几只试图摧毁洞境树枝干切断援军的虫子就落得了这样的下场,光是看着都觉得瘆人。
“好吧,我会立刻召集舰队赶过去。你先撑住,这可能会需要一点时间。”
说罢,寂静王斯扎拉克切断了通讯。
“一点时间?希望不要太长才好。”
塔拉辛瞥了一眼外太空已经彻底白热化的战斗,下意识摸了摸自己王座上镶嵌的一打星神碎片。
如果情况真的到了万不得已,他绝对会把这些要命的玩意一股脑扔出去。
毕竟从某种程度上来说,手办王根左思一样也是个宝可梦大师,那巨大的私人博物馆就是最好的例子。
只不过他爱好更加广泛,不光收藏活着的东西,连一些死物也不放过。
在这家伙的愿望清单上,甚至包括一缕人类之主的秀发、马格努斯的独眼、一个凯恩的化身、一根圣洁列斯翅膀上的羽毛、黄金王座、亚空间混沌邪神的签名等等一系列逆天的玩意。
毕竟银河第一盗圣兼收藏家的名号可不是白叫的。
正当塔拉辛考虑要如何才能构筑舰队防御网,尽可能多在恒星系外围拦截这些生物战舰的时候,位于第七颗行星轨道上的网道入口突然被打开。
紧跟着罗伯特·基里曼的旗舰马库拉格之耀号便首先冲出,起手就是光矛阵列和宏炮的齐射。
大量生物战舰在这一轮攻击下遭到毁灭性打击,大量的血肉四散飞溅。
当这艘荣光女王级战列舰彻底从网道驶出的时候,后续的舰队也随之鱼贯而出,以最快速度排列成战斗队形。
一时之间高能射线、实体炮弹和鱼雷交错在一起,形成了一副相当有撕裂感的画面。
有些距离虫群比较近的战舰更是直接使用撞角撞了上去,然后展开跳帮作战。
不得不说,人类帝国的科技水平和战术实在是有点让人一言难尽。
尽管左思已经提供了很多武器、装备给他们,可整体情况仍旧令人不敢恭维。
尤其是那些跟泰伦虫族跳帮的舰长,实在是不知道脑子里究竟在想些什么。
说句难听点的,这基本就是去给虫子们送外卖了。
但好在大多数的舰长脑子还算清醒,选择使用撞击和跳帮的终究还是少数。
而且凭借附近友军的掩护射击损失并不算太大。
“这……这虫子的数量未免也太多了吧?发生了什么?难道虫巢意志想要掀起一场毁灭银河系的战争吗?”
刚刚从网道跳出的罗伯特·基里曼猛地从椅子上站了起来,两只眼睛瞪得像铜铃。
由于虫巢意志对亚空间的遮蔽,导致星语者根本无法将情况及时传递出来。
所以他对于这次泰伦虫族入侵的情况还停留在最初阶段。
“我感受到了深深的恶意与贪婪!有个可怕的存在透过亚空间正在盯着我们。”
活圣人塞莱斯汀表明凝重的发出警告。
作为人类之主的选民兼代言人,她在这方面的敏感性要远超原体。
Of course, the more important reason is that Robert Guilliman has always refused to accept his own warp nature.
"You mean the Hive Mind is here? It's already arrived?"
Belisarius Cawl subconsciously clenched the hand in his hand that could turn the target it touched into atomic state.
Celestine shook her head quickly: "No, not yet. Because it has not accumulated enough strength. Moreover, there is a person on the battlefield that it is afraid of."
"The father of New Phyrexia - Soth!"
Belisarius Cawl quickly captured Zuo Si standing on the ground of the sector capital through the detector.
Since the incarnation of Shuoyou contains more amazing energy than any star, it is not difficult to find him.
In contrast, Robert Guilliman noticed the Orcs fighting the Tyranids, and asked others around him in surprise: "Am I seeing things? Are these Orcs helping us fight the Zerg?"
"Your Excellency Regent, please take a closer look. They are not ordinary orcs, but orcs with sparkling oil flowing in their bodies. In other words, they are all part of New Phyrexia." The hero Felix pointed to one of the pictures and reminded.
"Shuoyou? So this is the reinforcement summoned by Soth? He actually tamed the green-skinned orcs?"
Robert Guilliman quickly slid the screen to observe the situation on various battlefields, and found that it was much better than he expected.
Especially these enemies that were once the empire's most troublesome enemies, but now they are actually resisting a swarm of insects that is several times their number. Not only have they not retreated a single step, but they are also actively counterattacking.
The remaining human troops began to build fortifications based on the hive city, providing long-range fire support and cover to this group of dangerous friendly forces from time to time.
Although they certainly couldn't fight alongside a group of orcs, because that would be tantamount to seeking death, they would still do what they could.
But the orcs didn't care about it at all.
Because right now they are like a group of guys who are at the peak of physiological climax. They have long given up thinking about such useless things. They just want to keep fighting and having fun until they are completely unable to move.
"It seems so. The technology they possess is far beyond our comprehension, especially the towering tree standing on the surface of the planet."
Belisarius Cole was undoubtedly a man who knew what was good. He found the most valuable thing at a glance - the Cave Tree.
“Is there anything special about that tree?”
Robert Guilliman asked in an uncertain tone.
Belisarius Cawl answered very straightforwardly: "It crosses the barrier between space and space, and the other side is connected to an unknown void that we have never seen and can hardly understand. Maybe it's hard to understand this, but you only need to imagine that all physical rules and logic no longer exist, and you can roughly understand what kind of place it is."
"So what Soth said before was true? There is a place called the Dark Void between universes, and only special people like that can travel freely through it?"
Robert Guilliman looked very interested.
“I don’t know whether he is telling the truth or not.
But it should be true that you can travel between different universes.
Because if a fully-developed orc army of this size were to hide in the Milky Way, there would be no way they would remain undiscovered.
Otherwise, I suggest you focus on commanding your fleet.
You have to know that we are currently at an overwhelming disadvantage in terms of numbers."
As he spoke, Belisarius Cawl glanced at the densely packed red dots on the detector that represented enemy ships. There were so many of them that they couldn't fit on one screen.
"No, I think we should go support the Necrons fleet first, then reunite with them and discuss the next action plan. Anyway, we have Soth on the other side, so there shouldn't be any big problems in the short term."
Robert Guilliman thought for a moment and then made a quick decision.
Just as he was about to issue combat orders to the fleet, the screen of the communicator suddenly lit up without warning, and then the annoying face of the Figure King Trazyn appeared on it, greeting him in a tone like old friends meeting: "Ah! My dear friend, you are finally here. Although I know that it is common for the Empire's reinforcements to be late, it is a bit unreasonable that they are still so slow after the establishment of the Webway."
"I'm very sorry, Lord Trazyn. I don't want to delay, but it will take some time just to build and deploy materials for a fleet of this size."
Roboute Guilliman sighed apologetically.
When he thought of the thick stack of papers and the densely packed lists on them he had just flipped through, he felt a headache.
Due to the fear that electronic computers would be affected by the warp, many important and sensitive data of the Empire are recorded on paper.
This means that when he comes, he needs to deal with more than tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of pages of lists and reports before the fleet can complete all preparations and enter the first level combat readiness state.
In other words, the Original has a super brain. If it were an ordinary person, he would have collapsed long ago.
It is no wonder that so many people mock the empire’s administrative efficiency and the cold-bloodedness of its upper-level rulers.
No matter who it is, they will go crazy after dealing with so many excessive paper documents every day, and then become more and more impatient and less sensitive to the casualty figures.
