Chapter 622 Demon in the Storm
“It’s enough for Wang Ming to let you perform the task, why did you bring me here.”
Above the Muros Industrial World, a transport plane was carrying This world has harsh natural weather for flying. As an industrial world of the empire, it is the same as all the industrial worlds of the empire. It has huge factories and harsh natural environments, as well as a steady stream of minerals being mined. This world The natural environment has been completely destroyed by humans, and everything is dominated by industry and production.
On this world, there are billions of human residents living in this world. They are workers, workers in the factories above this world. Before the Renaissance Expedition, this world was completely one Synonymous with the world of death, after all, the natural environment of this world is too terrible.
Although it does not meet the standards of a real death world, the natural environment of this world is deadly enough for an ordinary human being.
"It's not safe for four people to find a Chaos Artifact that affects an entire star region. Plus you, an Alpha-level psyker, are an extra layer of insurance."
Rengar watched. Looking at Chen Xu next to him, he was very afraid of this humanoid nuclear bomb. If this guy had some mental problems, the alpha-level psyker's psychic spell would explode here, and the entire transport plane and the one below would That large industrial park will definitely be blown to pieces in an instant. It doesn't matter if a few of them die, they can be resurrected anyway.
But the same cannot be said for Zhou Heng and those ordinary people. If they are killed by Alpha level psykers, they will really die. Wang Ming will definitely take them out and make fun of them.
"Okay, stop nagging. According to the information we got, the location of the Chaos Artifact should be at the South Pole of this world. It is also strange. How did you change the climate and environment of this world? , the world environment of the Federation is very good, why do you just..."
Zhou Heng looked at the scene outside the observation cabin, and he said to the people around him, he really didn't understand why the human empire didn't manage it The world environment has a great impact on human survival. If we live here for a long time, it is likely to lead to mutations or some incidental diseases.
He just doesn't understand, but it's not that he doesn't know. The human empire obviously has many technologies that can improve people's livelihood, but why don't they improve people's livelihood?
“For those high lords and the planetary governors above the world, these are actually some thankless things. For them, as long as the humans above the world As long as you can complete your work."
Adwei looked at Zhou Heng, and she explained to Zhou Heng why the new star governors in the world managed people's livelihood very badly, because for them. For them, as long as the humans in the world can complete their work, then this world is truly valuable. As for the livelihood of humans in this world, for these planetary governors, they do not want to invest resources in these things that can For those who are consumed, they would rather enjoy themselves more than improve people's livelihood.
But fortunately, now, the east wind of the Renaissance Expedition has blown here, the former planetary governor. Because the oppression was too harsh, the entire family has been collectively sent to the stake. Now, the world is being transformed by the Mechanicus personnel of the Renaissance Expedition Fleet, but this transformation takes time, so the environment of this world is still very It's bad, but in the near future, under the planetary transformation devices carried by the Renaissance Expedition Fleet, the world will definitely return to what it was like before humans arrived. Although the minerals cannot be restored, the natural environment can definitely be restored.
It is said that it is also because of the cultists that the reconstruction plan of this world has been delayed. As the world where the Chaos Artifact is located, this world has not become a demon world entirely because of the imperial garrison on it, and The people's livelihood facilities and infrastructure built after the Renaissance Expedition arrived here are like other worlds that were recovered by the Renaissance Expedition. The belief in the Emperor in this world has reached a certain level. If it were not for the influence of Chaos, this world would not exist. There may be cultists.
While the people on the transport plane were commenting on the environment of this world, the transport plane also broke through the clouds and flew to the south pole of the planet. The environment of the south pole of the planet can already be regarded as a dead world, covered with frost all year round. , the blizzard seemed to never stop, and its huge storm could even be seen above the planet's orbit.
The transport plane pilot can only send everyone on the transport plane to the Antarctic continent, and they have to leave for the rest of the journey. Because of the terrible natural environment of this world, the transport plane cannot fly over the Antarctic at all. Flying, that huge storm will destroy all flying objects in the air.
"It's so cold..."
Rengar had just landed. He looked at the snowy scene in front of him and couldn't help but feel cold. In fact, because of their mission environment, they The standard power armor of the Mortal Auxiliary Army on his body has been modified. He can fully adapt to the extremely cold environment, but it is Rengar's psychological effect that makes him feel a little cold.
“Come on, you’re just being pretentious, do you think I’m cold or not.”
Luna looked at Rengar. She patted the breastplate of her power armor and said to Rengar with a blank expression. You must know that she was not wearing a helmet, and her long white hair was blowing in the wind. Dancing in the snow, it almost blends into the snow scene.
"Sister, you are a stone man and I am not. Although I am an immortal, my physical fitness is still that of an ordinary person. I don't have your durable body."
Rengar looked at Luna. He said to the stone man in front of him with an annoyed look. The stone man was originally prepared to deal with large-scale interstellar colonization and various extremes, but he is an ordinary person. Even if he The immortal cannot die. He is also an ordinary person. Although he can be resurrected, all his senses are the same as those of a normal person, and his physical fitness is not that terrifying.
“Look, Edwin didn’t even say anything. You, a grown man, still say it’s cold.”
Chen Xu looked at Rengar. He wasn’t wearing a helmet, but he was wearing a helmet. Psychic energy can protect his body from the cold wind. He looked at Rengar with disgust, then pointed at Edwig behind him without looking back, and said to Rengar. "Brother, why don't you take a look back? That guy forgot to wear his helmet when he got off the plane. Did he use his spiritual energy to protect his body in time? Now his whole body is frozen to the bone."
Rengar looked at Edwin behind Chen Xu. He looked at Edwin who had forgotten to wear a helmet before getting off the plane, so now he was frozen into a hard stick. The corners of his mouth twitched. He twitched and then said to Chen Xu.
"Why is there no normal person in this team..."
Rengar looked at Zhou Heng who was using a flamethrower to defrost Edwin, and he murmured in pain. A sound, but this murmur was heard by Luna. Luna patted his shoulder, and then said words that left him speechless.
"How can a normal person carry out such a fatal task? If Wang Ming hadn't come because of something, he would have been the one to do it."
Luna patted Rengar's shoulder and said to him with a smile on her face. Rengar looked at the smile on Luna's face in front of him. He felt that what she said made sense, but there seemed to be something strange about it. look.
But now is not the time to let them think so much. After Zhou Heng unfroze Edwin, everyone began to move towards the location of the Chaos Artifact according to the information they obtained. Everyone was concerned about the execution of this All these tasks require a certain amount of experience. The only thing that everyone can't understand is why the location of the Chaos artifact seems to be in such a very dangerous place, why can't it be in the hands of a cult? Then they can destroy the Chaos Artifact just by destroying the cult, so why bother?
However, complaints are complaints. They still need to perform their tasks. Everyone is moving forward in this blizzard. The harsh environment does not stop them from moving forward, especially Chen Xu. That lunatic, this guy euphemistically claims that he likes to walk in a straight line, and he will use psychic spells to flatten the icebergs or mountains in front of him at every turn.
The two psychics in the team looked at his operation. They were both going numb. Chen Xu did this, so they didn’t have to worry about dying, but there was also Zhou Heng in the team. And a Luna. If these two guys die, they really can't be resurrected.
But Zhou Heng and Luna had already considered this. They had already retreated dozens of miles away when Chen Xu opened the way. They are not immortals. For such dangerous things , still needs to be avoided.
So under this destructive path, Chen Xu forcibly established a broad and prosperous road in this land of death that had not been developed by humans..., well..., it was barely a path that could be taken. Anyway, the mountains along the way have been flattened by him, and there is no obstacle at all on the way forward. Chen Xu also self-destructed once because his spiritual power was out of control, but that self-destruction also destroyed a large mountain.
As for Chen Xu’s destructive behavior of opening the way, the other four people were also very helpless. They did not dare to have any verbal conflict with this lunatic. If he fell ill, then There is probably no one here who can stop him. If Zhou Heng were not fast enough, he could be resurrected and killed without giving him time to release his psychic spells. Otherwise, this guy would definitely be a huge threat, but so is Wang Ming. I considered this in advance, so I arranged a task for Zhou Heng in advance.
You must know that Chen Xu, a time traveler with mental problems, possesses powerful spiritual power. Before setting off, Wang Ming made an agreement with Zhou Heng that if Chen Xu loses control, then Only Zhou Heng can control him. Wang Ming also gave Zhou Heng a psionic suppressor newly developed by the First Engineer Corps. This thing has been tried by Wang Ming himself and can extract the psionic energy from Alpha level psykers. Suppressed.
It can be said that Zhou Heng is their biggest insurance for this mission, and Chen Xu is a war weapon that is very difficult to control. If he loses control, Zhou Heng can control him immediately.
Fortunately, Chen Xu didn’t show too much loss of control along the way. At most, he just lost control of his spiritual energy and blew himself up. Everyone just needed to hide far away, and he just After blasting mountains to clear the way, he walked in a straight line and did not reach the location of the Chaos Artifact.
And when everyone arrived at the location of the Chaos Artifact, they did not see the Chaos Artifact like a sword or an object, but a huge demon. The demon stood in the storm, surrounded by the huge storm. It has no effect on it, and it has even begun to affect those storms. Those storms are mixed with some red things, like a lot of flowing blood, and if you look closely, you can see that the residue in them What kind of blood is that? They are human heads that are wailing.
These heads are all civilians killed by those cultists. The cultists in this world have established a very close relationship with this chaotic artifact. It can be said that the reason for the emergence of cultists in this world is completely It is because of this Chaos Artifact that after those cultists killed those humans on the battlefields in this world, they would collect the heads of those humans and then sacrifice them to this Chaos Artifact.
And not only that, beside the demon, a hill made of accumulated human skulls was built into a huge altar, and the object of sacrifice was the Blood God in the Supreme Heaven. !
"This scene... is really annoying..."
Chen Xu looked at the human heads that were wailing in the storm. Those human souls had been sacrificed to Killing Khorne, this is the last thing Chen Xu wants to see. He has lived in this galaxy for thousands of years, and the last thing he wants to see is his compatriots being tortured by Chaos.
Rengar, who had been paying attention to Chen Xu's emotions, and Zhou Heng, who had been paying attention to Chen Xu's movements, both noticed something strange about Chen Xu. Originally, Zhou Heng wanted to control Chen Xu, but around him Rengar directly gave him a gesture and told him to run quickly. After thinking for a nanosecond, Zhou Heng gave up the idea of controlling Chen Xu and ran with everyone. Anyway, there was a huge one ahead of him. The Chaos Demon, there is nothing wrong with letting Chen Xu solve it like this.
And just when Chen Xu looked at the Chaos Demon in front of him and was about to use his spiritual energy to kill it, he suddenly felt a feeling of spiritual energy being suppressed. That was the anti-psionic energy of Khorne. Magic means, and Chen Xu was stunned for a moment because he could not use psychic spells, and while he was stunned, the Chaos Demon had already trampled him into a pulp.
