Chapter 44 The golden sun is rising
After the vanguard gained an initial advantage.
Heavy transport ships landed on the surface of the planet one after another.
With the support of ground firepower, knight mecha groups and tank groups were also dropped on the battlefield.
The engine roared and the huge gun barrel moved back and forth.
Terrifying firepower poured into one hostile target after another.
The surging waves of machinery were torn apart by the Empire's powerful firepower.
It was reduced to a wreckage emitting electric sparks and black smoke.
Strong flashes caused by bursts of explosions and flares rose from the ground, illuminating the dark sky.
On the void orbit, plasma beams, torpedoes, missiles, and pulse beams continued to fall, bombarding the surface.
Fighter planes roared in the sky, turning the rising black smoke into whirlpools.
The light from the engine left bright trails.
With their genetic engines, the Astartes are a deadly sword.
They cut through the defense lines established by the mechanical frenzy and captured the heavily garrisoned fortress.
Horus took the lead on the battlefield and was extremely brave.
Even without a genetic engine, he is an unstoppable God of War on the battlefield.
Just relying on its own strength, it can sweep away the enemy.
Heavy weapons can't lock on to his movements, and those light weapons can't damage him.
He was like a primitive savage force, raging under the dusty sky.
The sharp claws covered with power fields easily sliced through those machines, reducing them to scrapped wreckage.
Every time the war hammer in his hand is swung, a blue destructive energy will be rolled up out of thin air.
Wherever Horus went, there were broken mechanical remains at his feet.
Behind him, he left a path of killing burning with flames.
Horus's power soon attracted the attention of his enemies.
A stronger killing machine was sent to deal with him.
However, a Primarch is unrivaled in the material world.
No matter how powerful the enemy sent, they were eventually defeated by Horus.
Along the way, he got a little help.
A dozen ragged humans ran out of a sewer exit.
Using their crude weapons, they assisted Horus in destroying a killing weapon.
"I thought all humans were locked up in those buildings."
Horus was a little surprised to see the humans helping him.
"It seems that you are compatriots from the stars. I welcome you on behalf of the survivors."
An old man with a mechanical prosthesis stood up and talked to Horus.
Horus said: "My name is Horus. I am the biological son of the Lord of the Human Empire and his most valued son."
"We are ordered to liberate this planet, completely destroy these omnics, and rebuild human society."
The old man bowed and saluted, and then introduced himself.
"My name is Rona, the elder of the Runaways. Nice to meet you."
"What happened to this planet?" Horus asked: "Why were humans in captivity."
"All these are the evil deeds of the governor. He was a very good person, but later he went crazy." Rona's tone was heavy.
"Tell me more about it."
Horus looked around, and the battle around him was coming to an end.
The mechanical army has been defeated and it is only a matter of time before they are annihilated.
He had enough time to listen to the story of the world.
Rona did not hide anything, he revealed the past of the planet Senus III to Horus.
After the Age of Strife, the number of wild psykers and mutants increased dramatically.
The world of Senus No. 3 is in turmoil, and all kinds of strange events are happening one after another.
In order to protect the people, the governor of the planet at that time unsealed the intelligent mechanical mother machine that should have been destroyed, regardless of opposition.
He uploaded his consciousness to the server and replaced the AI of the omnic mother machine as the master of the omnic army.
Using an army of omnics, the planetary governor suppressed the unrest and restored society to its previous peace.
However, not long after the planetary governor uploaded his self-awareness, he was corrupted by the hidden evil code and became the dark governor.
Realizing that something was wrong, the top human beings responded immediately.
The intention is to clear the planetary governor's self-awareness and format the omni-machine mother machine.
The Dark Governor counterattacked in advance and launched the Doomsday War.
Release all kinds of exterminating weapons and turn the entire world into a wasteland.
A large number of human beings died miserably, social order collapsed, and civilization was destroyed.
The higher-ups realize that humanity cannot win, in order to prevent the Dark Governor from poisoning other worlds.
chose to overload the climate controllers and destroy the planet's polar magnetic field.
Let the world of Senus III be shrouded in dark clouds and electromagnetic storms all year round.
The Dark Governor who won the war was trapped on the surface, unable to get out of the planet.
The satellites and space stations he launched into the void lost contact due to interference from electromagnetic storms and dark clouds.
The trapped dark governor once hated human beings. Mechanical hunters are constantly dispatched to massacre survivors.
Later, it came up with a more vicious method of revenge.
Instead of exterminating the surviving humans, they have switched to capturing and keeping them in captivity.
Those caught were stuffed into the training cabin.
The spiritual consciousness uses synaesthesia equipment to connect to the virtual world it creates - Nightmare Paradise.
There are various horror copies and escape games in Nightmare Paradise.
The captive humans escaped again and again and struggled constantly.
Gain hope in despair, and then fall from the peak of hope to the abyss of despair.
Over and over again, never ending.
Until he has a nervous breakdown, becomes a madman, or dies.

When relevant information was uploaded to the fleet, even the Emperor was shocked by such horrific evil deeds.
Human beings are treated as dry batteries and reduced to entertainment dolls.
You spend your time in the virtual world from birth to death.
The Dark Governor is like a supreme god, dominating everything.
The Imperial forces are very powerful, and the omnic army is no match.
The majestic metal city was reduced to ruins and turned into ruins emitting black smoke.
The buildings that housed humans were carefully preserved.
The Mechanical Sage inspected those cultivation chambers and found a very difficult problem.
"These people have been living in a virtual world. If these devices are destroyed rashly, it may cause them all to become idiots."
"Only by allowing the virtual world to collapse from within and expelling the spiritual consciousness of these people can we ensure that they can wake up normally."
"I want to personally enter that so-called nightmare paradise." The emperor said: "Find out those behind the scenes and punish them."
"Wouldn't that be too dangerous?" Waldo advised.
"No one can match my will."
The emperor's attitude was very firm.
Raven didn't try to persuade him, he also wanted to broaden his horizons.
Get a taste of what French fries and ketchup taste like in the virtual world.
A dilapidated and rusty suspended bus shuttles through the fog.
There were twelve people in the car, five women and seven men.
They sat in the car and looked at the fog outside, showing fear.
They are players in Nightmareland.
Every once in a while, it’s time to take part in a nightmare game.
Once you fail the game, you will suffer terrible torture until the next time you play the game.
This life will continue until they become mad or die.
The bus moved forward like a ghost, except for the hum of the anti-gravity suspension engine.
There was silence, no sound.
Eventually, the bus arrived at a dark, eerie-looking town.
The town was lifeless, with dried blood stains everywhere on the walls of the houses.
A lanky guy wearing a crow mask stood at the town station, staring at the bus.
His wrists had been amputated and replaced with scissors and hooks covered in blood and rust.
【This game is town escape】
【Please collect tickets and escape from the town while being hunted by nightmares】
The car door opens and players get off in order.
Then, the bus started again, disappeared into the fog, and gradually moved away.
"Welcome, my lovely little snacks."
Nightmare stuck out his tongue and licked the bloody and rusty hook, his eyes showing a vicious light.
The game hasn't started yet, and the nightmare is still restricted and cannot do anything to the player.
But the eerie words and actions still plunged the players into deep fear.
Players know very well that once the game fails and falls into the hands of the other party, they will be worse than dead.
【The game is coming@#@#! #】
【Game coming soon@#@#￥@#】
【Program error, correcting￥￥￥】
【.】
The game prompts in front of the players are garbled, and it seems that there has been some kind of invasion.
Just when they were confused, the dim sky was suddenly illuminated.
In the surprised eyes of the players, a golden sun was rising slowly, dispersing the strange fog.
PS: Daily heresy, praising the four gods
Originally, I wanted to simply write about a mutinous AI that captives humans.
After thinking about it later, this kind of plot is quite boring.
It’s better to write about a madman and a group of enslaved players.
