Chapter 626: Cold, Silence, and "Double Standards"

Observing the Leonidas from hundreds of kilometers away.

You can clearly see the land, ocean, forest, and multi-purpose bases for living, training, and production on the surface. Even though the battle outside has become fierce, the surface has not been affected at all.

At this time, a giant figure flashed across the surface and broke away from the gravity of the Leonidas at a very fast speed, rushing out of the atmosphere...

Until it rushed out of the energy shield.

After the giant figure was far enough away from the home world, it slowed down slightly so that friendly units could observe it visually.

In fact, this is the body of God holding the Spear of Terror and wearing the armor of the God of War.

Although John is not good at psychic power, that is "not good" compared to Sanguinius and Magnus. Moreover, after the neural connection with the body of God, even with the psychic suppression of the undead, the cloak still burned with flames in the cold and dark five-dimensional space.

After giving orders to the battalion commanders through the communication, John controlled the body of God and began to solve the obstacles in front of him as much as he could.

The body of God first threw the World Engine, then paused for a few seconds, and when enough carrier-based aircraft and pyramids attacked "his" position, he immediately threw it with his right hand.

Rou~——! ! ! ! ! ! !

Silently breaking through the air, dark red afterimages.

The Spear of Fear crossed the five-dimensional space at a speed infinitely close to the speed of light.

Boom-——! ! Boom-——! !

Everything that blocked the straight trajectory of the war spear was pierced and exploded violently, turning into balls of fire that illuminated the dark space.

Buzz-——! ! !

But the war spear was still blocked by the protective stand of the World Engine.

However, the violent reaction of the spear tip when it touched the stand, and the "lotus"-shaped ripples caused were more obvious, and the protective stand even began to flicker frequently, and even the planet-sized World Engine was forced to move backwards because of this attack.

Seeing this, John controlled the God Body to stretch out his left hand, spread his five fingers, and called back the Spear of Fear.

As for the right arm of the God Body, it looked a little more swollen than the left arm? And there were also tiny red "water drops" floating in the gaps of the armor.

It seemed that the previous powerful throw had a strong backlash effect on the God Body. It might be because of the weakening of psychic power and the loss of psychic protection, or it might be that John used a far greater limit of power than before to test the strength of the protective stance.

In any case, after the Spear of Fear returned to the left hand of the God Body, John kept moving forward at a constant speed.

The plasma cannon attached to the back of the God Body was stretched, bent, and folded by the mechanical arm under his control, and the muzzle was turned to face the front, and the cannon was also sent to the armpit of John's right arm.

At the same time, the back mechanical arm also transported the other two smaller-caliber laser cannons to the shoulders of the God Body.

Then, he continued to use his right hand to hold the handle of the plasma cannon, and at the moment when he pulled the trigger with his index finger...

Swish~——!!

The plasma cannon fired a huge, purple-light cannonball, like a comet with a "tail flame" colliding with a planet, directly destroying a dead pyramid.

Swish-swish-swish-!

The laser cannons on his shoulders fired a series of high-energy beams, constantly clearing the obstacles on the way forward.

Next.

Thousands of assault boats, transport boats, and escorting carrier-based aircraft and mechas gradually gathered behind the body of God.

When everything was ready.

John controlled the body of God to free up his right hand and stretched out his five fingers forward.

In an instant, the body of God was in front, generating a shield composed of seemingly countless "◇" diamond-shaped energy blocks. Protecting its own safety was secondary, and the main purpose was to ensure that the formation behind it was not harassed, especially from the bombardment of the world engine.

Buzz! Buzz!

And at the moment when the shield wall was formed, the World Engine launched another salvo of artillery fire, but it did not cause any impact on the God Body.

The assault continued.

Next, with the assistance of the God Body, a "tactical-level" weapon in the universe, the assault boat formation "only" lost about 1/5 of its aircraft.

Although the casualties seemed serious, the attack came not only from the World Engine, but also from the Necromancer ships and carrier-based aircraft from all directions. As long as they could reach the periphery of the World Engine's protective position, it meant that this assault boarding operation was half successful.

The rest depended on whether they could successfully break into the protective position.

At this moment, the God Body slowed down its flight speed under John's control. While the right hand did not move, the shield continued to be generated, and the left hand holding the Spear of Fear swung back, and the legs were also in a lunge.

Then, when it was about to collide with the World Engine's protective position.

Rou~－－－Boom! ! ! ! ! !

The Spear of Fear pierced out as a dark red afterimage under the full swing of the God Body.

Buzz! ! ! ! ! !

The spear tip and the stand burst into a fierce clash again.

Boom! Boom! Boom! ! !

But this time, John ignored the "durability" of the left arm of the body of God, and ignored the pain of muscle and bone rupture caused by the neural connection, and continued to swing the spear of fear to stab the protective stand.

Boom! Boom. Boom. Crack. Crack! ! !

The protective stand, which was attacked by the body of God, finally couldn't bear it anymore and was pierced like glass.

Wow. Wow.

The "fragments" of the stand emitting a faint green light floated outward, and then dissipated one by one.

However, the positions in other areas were still intact, and they were about to "heal" the punctured weak points.

Before the protective position was "healed", the God's body and the assault boat formation had already seized the opportunity and successfully broke into the position.

So far, the boarding operation was infinitely close to "mission completion".

After all, if the enemy ships were boarded by the Astartes and the auxiliary army, they would rush to the engine room and bridge of the enemy ship without hesitation before the last super soldier fell, even if it was an enemy ship the size of a planet.

After entering the protective position, thousands of assault boats immediately formed into 20 formations with battalions as units and began to break through the north and south poles of the world engine and the equator at low altitude.

There were still many anti-aircraft firepower on the metal surface, but compared with those anti-aircraft artillery that were specifically responsible for the outside of the position, they were nothing compared to the big witches and were not at the same level at all.

As for the body of God, who broke through the position and led everyone to rush into the surface of the world engine, he flew directly towards the equator at low altitude, and was followed by more than a dozen assault boats carrying the original body's direct troops.

Due to the protection provided by the body of God, this assault boat formation did not suffer any losses and came to the vicinity of the equator unimpeded.

At this time, the body of God and the formation gradually slowed down until they were almost hovering, keeping a distance of about 3,000 meters from the metal surface.

John, who shared vision with the body of God, was using ultra-long-range vision to observe.

I saw that on the intricate metal landmarks with various unknown patterns, there were many prismatic columns, or extremely retro low-rise buildings, houses, and even memorial squares with human-like statues.

It was as if the chief designer who built this world engine had added a lot of selfishness and was determined to shape its surface into a peaceful state, with almost no pyramid buildings representing tombs.

Unfortunately, the surface of this world engine is "dead silent". Even though many undead skeletons can be seen wandering between the streets and lines, most of them are holding Gauss rays and attacking the body of God and the assault boat formation, it is still impossible to avoid the fact that this is a place of death.

It seems that Farah Xun Barahel really misses his life and is looking for the appearance and feeling of the Necrontyr period everywhere, but without a soul, the residents under his command lack independent consciousness and even lose their voices, so everything is in vain.

Of course, John's focus is not on understanding the "local customs", but on observing the entrance of a cave in front of him that is suspected to be able to go directly to the ground, even to the center of the earth, with a radius of about ten kilometers.

And this cave entrance is still "spraying" out a dark green light.

After hanging in the air for a while, the body of God continued to move forward under John's control, and the assault boat formation continued to follow.

Ignoring the sporadic Gaussian rays, passing another square, and then going straight to the entrance of the cave, looking down.

It was like an abyss that could not be seen at the bottom.

But the crowd continued to advance downward without any hesitation.

The deeper they went, the brighter the green light in front of them became, until the pilots driving the assault boats could not see the things in front of them, and had to believe the data and information displayed on their respective control consoles and fly "blindly".

However, this trick did not work for the body of God, so John shared the situation in front with all the pilots to ensure that they and the passengers sitting in the cabin would not cause safety accidents due to flying.

Soon, the body of God and the formation successfully passed through the abyss of the netherworld.

When all the pilots regained their vision, they found that everything was upside down, just like the first time they entered the earth's core world of the Leonidas, the sky was "below" the surface, and everything was "reversed".

But in the world engine's geocentric world, there are no white clouds, oceans, forests, or land. Instead, there is still desolation and silence. In the core position of the artificial star, there is a green light ball with a diameter of about 400 kilometers.

When the fleet first met the world engine, the green light that overflowed from the gap between the metal plates came from here.

And the outer wall of this light ball was like a lake surface where children used stones to skip stones, breaking the calm and creating the effect of water waves.

The most important thing is that unlike the warm light released by artificial stars, the green light released by this light ball does not feel hot, but rather the coldness of falling into an ice cellar.

Green light, cold, and dead silence.

Even though there are no pyramids representing tombs here, this geocentric world is simply a tomb for all the Spartans.

And everyone also saw a building that looked like the corresponding control room.

In front of them "diagonally", there is a giant square with an area of ​​about 200,000 to 220,000 square kilometers, and a palace complex in the center of the square.

Seeing this, John controlled the body of God and headed straight for the square.

The assault boat formation followed closely behind.

But when they were about to reach the edge of the square, they heard:

"Humans. Why do you fight desperately? Why do you want to break the peace? Is it just to satisfy your selfish desire to dominate the galaxy?"

The whole earth's core world was filled with Xun Barahel's metallic confusion and questioning.

Obviously, this Farah was shocked by the Spartans' desperate and crazy fighting style, willing to perish together, but also to hold them back.

It couldn't understand.

Humans obviously have fresh lives, and they also have souls that they have lost for a long time and have been looking for.

According to the Necrons, or according to it and its Oparata Dynasty, if they really regain their bodies and souls, they will definitely cherish them. How can they be as "indifferent" as humans?

"Boring."

However, in response to Xun Barahel's reply, there was only John's "sarcasm", and the Primarch also added: "The Empire will never make meaningless sacrifices. Everything is currency, including me. As for you, haha, I didn't expect that losing your soul and body would still not change your double standards."

It is obvious that John still remembers Xun Barahel. He invaded the control room of the Leonidas through Trazyn and said something very rude, saying "Give me a reason not to destroy you."

I will not destroy you.

John is relatively indifferent and has a good reputation among the people of the empire. He can be regarded as one of the Primarchs with "honest" and "dull" personalities, but this does not mean that John is the kind of "good man" who will restrain his anger and not bear grudges even when being scolded by the enemy.

On the contrary, the older Primarchs who know John know that their brother, the God of War, is very "sultry" and will avenge his enemies, regardless of whether you are male or female.

Now, it's time for Farah to see what will happen if he angers a Primarch...

Ri~Shua! !

The God's body controlled by John suddenly accelerated. Even though it was suppressed by psychic energy, it still turned into a dark red afterimage and "flashed" to the palace complex.

"Boom! Boom!"

The moment his feet touched the ground, the metal floor tiles and buildings were "blown up".

And the metal plates were twisting and deforming in a way that was visible to the naked eye, and with the feet of the God's body as the center, they began to impact the entire Earth's core like a tsunami wave.

Everything it touched was broken and blown away. Low-level units like the Necromancers would instantly fall apart, but the higher-level Destroyer platforms could be temporarily teleported to avoid it.

The metal "tsunami" washed the inner world several times in a short moment before it gradually subsided. It seemed that the landing just now had brought an earthquake no less than 10 on the Richter scale.

"Ahhh!!!"

At this time, accompanied by a sharp roar, a huge metal spider with a height of at least 300 meters and three pairs of mechanical giant feet emerged from the ruins of the palace.

Then the metal spider rushed towards the body of God at a very fast speed, even turning into an afterimage.

At the same time, the assault boat formation that followed the Primarch to this place saw that the "earthquake" had stopped, and then landed one by one on the severely damaged ground, and unloaded the elite veterans to search for possible cores and try to occupy or destroy them.

As for assisting the Primarch?

The veterans didn't even think about it. It was good enough that they didn't make trouble. The Primarch-level battle was not something they could participate in.
