Chapter 728: My fellow tribesmen are cheating me
Xernos Bloodcurse was now 100% certain that he had been tricked.
I was betrayed by my own people.
This is not surprising. It is normal for Dark Eldar to mess with each other.
There is no race whose internal strife is more serious than that of the Dark Eldar, and the infighting comes in many forms.
However, this time, he really couldn't figure out who was trying to trick him.
It’s not because there are no candidates, but because there are too many candidates.
Is there anyone in the Blood Curse Family who doesn't want to see me make achievements? Is there someone I've offended, and I'm taking this opportunity to mess with him?
Or is it that other families besides the Blood Curse Family wanted to trick the Blood Curse and get themselves into trouble?
Both are possible.
But no matter who did this and no matter what their purpose was, it definitely forced him into a desperate situation.
He led the team through the Curtain Spirit Gate and into the real universe, but was blocked on this side and the Curtain Spirit Gate was destroyed. This actually didn't matter.
At worst, I can just play hide and seek and find another place to build one.
The curtain gate with a diameter of 60 meters is essentially a beacon. It is not difficult to build. His ship has the equipment, materials and manpower.
What is difficult is opening the door, which requires a painful soul.
But there is no need to worry. They dare not plunder the escorted fleets. They send small boats and landing craft, relying on excellent stealth technology, to sneak around the surface of the human planet and attack some villages or go to the lower city area of the so-called human hive city. They can always plunder the population.
In fact, according to his experience, in most cases, they can do it without anyone noticing. It often takes a long time for local governments to realize that a large number of people are missing, let alone stop them.
You may never even realize it.
There are a few thousand, or ten or twenty thousand fewer people in the lower levels of the hive... isn't that a normal fluctuation?
But the Alliance taught him a lesson.
When he attempted a raid, he was indeed successful, the Dark Eldar's stealth technology being good enough to bypass the planet's defenses.
The most dangerous stage has passed, and the rest should be simple.
Based on his past experience, he chose an inconspicuous and poor area, kidnapped more than 3,000 people, and then turned around and planned to run away.
But at this moment, a big problem occurred: they were discovered!
They had clearly successfully passed the most dangerous stage of landing on the surface, so how did they get discovered when they were looting the population?
Later, he discovered that it was his past experience that misled him: the Alliance's control and management over the grassroots of society was completely different from that of the imperial world in the general sense.
When a hundred people are missing, the grassroots will react; when grassroots officials are missing, the higher level will sound the alarm; when thousands of people are missing, the officials in charge of this area will be sweating profusely, and they will have to bear a lot of responsibility...
Of course, at this stage, they had not yet realized that their enemy was the Dark Elves, but thought it was just another infestation of insects.
The planet's local defense forces were the first to arrive, and were rightfully defeated by them.
The Dark Eldar's fighting power is still very strong. Their population is pitifully rare among all the monsters in the universe. If the individual combat capability is not good enough, it would be too outrageous.
Not to mention the real Black Bean Sprouts, even the blood slaves under Black Bean Sprouts, who were transformed and controlled using flesh and blood technology, and the interstellar mercenaries who, due to various reasons, drifted to Comoros and worked for Black Bean Sprouts, actually had quite strong combat levels.
But the small number is always a problem.
This is not their home ground, they will be doomed if they get delayed.
Therefore, despite their superior military force, they were still forced to abandon their gains and evacuate quickly.
When they returned to the ship, they encountered a wave of truly formidable enemies: the Alliance's garrison on the planet had arrived.
This is a legitimate Union Army unit.
The Alliance Army has become stronger under Gu Hang's persistent cultivation of gift points, the nourishment of the Alliance's increasingly vigorous military production scale, and the baptism of countless wars and victories. They have a stronger combat power than the ordinary star army of the Empire, which made a very deep impression on Xernos.
His blood slave troops and mercenary troops composed of various alien races were defeated by the equal-sized Alliance Army.
Xernos had no choice but to send out his true descendants - his pure-blood guards.
These dark Eldars, armed with guns, with sharp blades hanging from their waists and covered in black armor, are deadly battlefield killers. Although there are only a few hundred of them, they play a role similar to that of Space Marines and quickly defeat the two most advanced regiments of the Alliance Army.
With their help, we finally covered the large force and returned to the ship smoothly.
The Dark Eldars who dodged anti-aircraft fire and escaped from the surface of the planet not only gained nothing from this journey, but also suffered heavy losses.
More importantly, their whereabouts were completely exposed, and they were delayed on the ground for quite a long time.
Before they could escape too far, the human pursuit fleet arrived.
They can only chase and flee with these human fleets in the vast sea of stars.
After finally gaining a certain distance, they accelerated to a jump point and prepared to jump to another galaxy. However, when they were only an hour or two away from the jump point, they suddenly sensed that a human fleet had emerged from the jump point.
I could only turn around and run again.
The longer time goes, the more human fleets arrive.
At this moment, Xernos was still not very panicked.
Although, he did not capture enough people and did not have the space to set up the Curtain Spirit Gate, which meant that there was almost no way for them to go back alive.
But they can still go back dead.
Since he knew that those humans might have a way to cut off the soul connection between the Dark Eldar and Commorros, Xernos would definitely not let himself fall into the hands of those humans.
It’s better to end your life than to be caught.
At worst, he would just endure a period of nothingness, and be resurrected by the Haemonculi with the Soul Box left in Commorra. Although that would mean losing all the blood slaves, the entire plundering fleet, and having to pay the Haemonculi a hefty price for resurrection...
But, I survived and returned.
But the most terrifying thing happened at this moment: they suddenly lost the connection between themselves and Comoros.
Not only him, but all the Dark Eldar are the same.
He quickly ruled out human involvement.
They do not yet have the ability to sever the soul connection over such a long distance.
The only thing is that, on the other side, in Comoros, the soul boxes of all of them have been controlled.
Only then did Xernos feel his blood run cold.
