Chapter 237 Cracks in the Webway?
The huge figure suddenly fell in front of everyone, nearly three meters in size, and a thick aura of chaos spread.
That is... the devil! ? ?
Ron frowned and felt bad.
Demons that can grow wings are generally not low-level.
If it were more than ten years ago, such a demon would have plunged the declining Erth into extreme suffering.
The demon stared at everyone coldly, it showed a cruel smile, and its saliva dripped to the ground.
Fresh flesh...
For subspace creatures, they may not have the opportunity to taste fresh flesh and blood in the material world for tens of millions of years.
That is an unspeakable huge temptation!
Boom, boom, boom.
The devil is approaching further, and these weak humans will become its prey.
It stretched out its claws and grabbed the frightened engineering staff in front of it: "Human, be patient..."
Bang!
Before the devil finished speaking, a black shadow suddenly struck.
That's Carter!
He jumped over a dozen meters and hit the devil with a hammer on the face.
Boom——
Half of the demon's fangs shattered into pieces and fell to the ground. The huge impact caused it to fall heavily to the ground.
Wails of anger and pain echoed in the air.
"That's right, who is stealing?"
The devil's consciousness was struggling in the whirlpool of pain. It could not even understand what it was encountering and could only roar helplessly.
That blow almost knocked out its brains.
At that moment the devil was trying to recover from the chaos and try to stand up again.
A powerful big foot kicked the huge demon body violently, and it fell to the ground again.
This time, the demon's vision finally became clearer, and the figure of the attacker was reflected in its malicious pupils.
The cold face, thick dark gold power armor, and the violent aura exuding from his body are enough to make any demon fearful!
A trace of fear began to spread in the devil's eyes. It never thought that it would feel afraid in front of humans.
However, the next second, its vision fell into darkness.
Carter was still cold. He raised his strong arms and grasped the devil's head tightly like iron pliers.
He violently used force, and with the force of thunder, he slammed the devil's head onto the hard ground!
There was a dull loud noise, and the ground shook under the heavy blow.
Ouch~
The demon's huge body twitched violently in pain, and its once arrogant roar turned into a painful wail.
Everyone was stunned when they saw this scene and were deeply shocked.
"Hey, hey, everyone, stop watching the fun and quickly transport the equipment back to the ship!"
Ron urged everyone loudly.
Nothing can happen to those precious devices.
Soon, under his order, the transport team continued to move forward.
Ron is at the back of the line.
He watched as Carter beat the demon to death with one punch after another, his body covered with broken bones and blood.
The captain of the Thunder Guards still has a rough attitude towards heretics.
There is no need to use the chain sword, it has to be so bloody.
Ron was a little skeptical. Without his blessing, Carter would most likely have become a warrior under Khorne.
But this is fine. To deal with heretics, you have to be violent in order to keep the situation under control.
He was a little emotional.
Back then, a demon host made me feel like I was facing a formidable enemy.
Now that he has high-end force, even a high-level demon that is many times more powerful than the demon host cannot make any trouble.
The Thunder Guards around him can crush them all to death.
Suddenly, Ron sensed more chaotic power.
And demons?
He looked up and saw several more demons in the sky, smelling the scent of fresh flesh and blood, and rushed over impatiently.
"Lord Savior, please go back, we will deal with these heretics"
Carter stopped in front of Ron and pulled out the dark red chain saw sword, and the other dozen The Thunder Guards also gathered over.
“Okay, be careful.”
Ron nodded and followed the transport team to speed back to the research ship.
After taking only a few steps, he heard the roar of bolt guns from behind.
But he didn't worry too much. This demon couldn't cause harm to the Thunder Guards team.
The transport team returned to the area where the research ship was docked and began to move the equipment to the cargo hold.
Not long after, the rest of the exploration team also returned one after another.
They found all kinds of Eldar technological artifacts, from weapons to daily utensils, and brought back almost everything that could be disassembled.
After all, only in this way can we systematically study the technology of the Eldar.
This is an ancient Eldar city that is almost perfectly preserved and still in operation. Many of its technological creations may not even exist in the current Eldar race.
The Eldar are similar to humans. Many technologies from the glorious era have been lost, and they even reject those technologies.
No matter how advanced and enlightened a race is, they will always become conservative or even ignorant after encountering a disaster.
It can only be said that no matter how far civilization develops, there is always a place for religion and dance.
Ron looked at Duke and other soldiers escorting the expedition team and found signs of battle on their bodies.
He asked in surprise: "You also encountered an attack?"
Duke replied solemnly:
"Yes, Lord Savior, we encountered demons, but the number Not much”
They can still handle a small amount of demons easily.
Especially in the Webway, the active subspace energy gives the Void Angels a higher combat effectiveness.
Ron frowned. According to reports from Duke and other warriors, after the psychic barrier disappeared, they were attacked by demons in various sizes.
Fortunately, the number of escorts was sufficient and not much damage was caused.
This time, if they did not send space warriors to escort the expedition team, they would send the Storm Army as usual.
The loss is estimated to be considerable.
Those stormtroopers are still unable to resist the demon's attack.
Ron was mentally prepared for the fact that there were demons in the Webway.
Otherwise, he would not have arranged for so many Thunder guards to come over.
After all, the subspace energy of the Webway is active and abundant, and it has experienced an unimaginably long period of time.
Occasionally, a few demons would wander in, which was normal.
As long as there are no cracks in the webway, allowing a huge tide of demons to pour in, he is still confident that the demons in the webway will be eliminated.
With the help of large transport equipment, the engineering team quickly transported the Eldar technological creations into the warehouse.
After loading was completed, everyone boarded the ship.
Inside the bridge.
Ron waited quietly.
The cargo warehouse is fully loaded and the research ship is ready to return.
Now only Carter's team of Thunder Guards have not returned yet, waiting for them to return and board the ship.
Everyone can set off back to the Holy Land of Erth.
However, after waiting for a long time, Carter and others still did not return.
Are they chasing the devil?
He didn't plan to send anyone out to look for it, that would be unrealistic.
Even the Thunder Guards can't solve the problem. Others will only increase the casualties.
More likely to hold them back.
Ron used the observation eyepiece to look into the distance, then turned to ask the courier:
"Have you contacted them?"
The messenger tried again, but still shook his head:
"Sir Savior, I did not find Captain Carter's signal. There is too much interference here. "
Ron sighed and did not continue to ask.
He just gave it a try and didn't expect to get in touch.
The distance in the network channel is not fixed, and there is active subspace energy, so it is difficult to transmit communication signals.
They have experimented before. It is difficult to communicate with each other in the network channel, and they can only communicate at close range.
Even at close range, there is still a lot of interference during communication.
One of the couriers even heard some terrible murmurings during the communication process.
Then we chatted with the unknown thing.
If the adjutant hadn't noticed his abnormal state in time, there might have been an erosion and pollution incident.
If you want to communicate freely within the network in the future, you will probably have to spend a lot of effort building signal relay stations.
"Call, the subspace energy of the Webway is so active, is this a normal state?"
Ron suddenly asked.
The subspace energy in the Webway is very active now, and so many demons have appeared.
It made him worried.
If there is a problem with the network channel, it will be a catastrophe.
Beep...Beep...
"Please wait a moment"
The mechanical alarm beeped, and Kaul was holding a strange and crude The instrument seemed to be measuring something.
That was the energy detection instrument he had just made.
The red warning light flashes.
Kaur looked at the readings, his two red mechanical eyes glowing slightly, and then raised his head:
"This genius has discovered this problem before, and now he has a preliminary answer. .
The Webway is constructed of anti-psionic materials and cannot contain such active warp energy.
To be precise, the energy value here is already 2.5 times higher than the theoretical value..."
"What's the reason? "
"It may be the long-term penetration of subspace. After all, it is a creation left from ancient times." He pinched his chin, thinking about something: "Of course, there is another possibility, that is, the network channel is damaged and causes subspace to collapse." Space energy intrusion.
In this case, the activity of subspace energy will gradually increase..."
Hiss~
Hearing the word 'damaged', Ron suddenly felt a cold air rushing from his tailbone to his forehead.
My whole body was numb.
"I personally prefer the second answer"
Kaul added another punch and waved the detector in front of Ron: "Because the energy readings are slowly increasing, it is expected that The annual growth rate is 1%."
If it is not dealt with in time, this place may be completely assimilated with subspace in the future, so you must be mentally prepared for this. "
Very good...
Ron's hanging heart finally died and he fell into a long silence.
Who knows how long it took for that crack to appear, and then How many demons had poured in, it was over.
Call stood there blankly, waiting for the savior to ask him for a solution.
However, there was no response from the other party.
He finally couldn't help it and coughed:
"Lord Savior, I admit that what I just said is an exaggeration.
Even if it is a small damage that just appeared, We must be on guard. If we don’t deal with it in time, this network will be destroyed in about ten thousand years.
But don’t worry, as long as you give me enough resources, I am confident that I can repair it..."
"I just have a question now"
Ron raised his head suddenly and interrupted Call: "Can demons enter the webway through that crack?"
Huh?
Colton was stunned.
His reddish electronic eyes flickered slightly, obviously he had not considered this issue just now.
"Devil? Please wait a moment!"
Kaul also thought of a terrible possibility.
He immediately called up a huge amount of data on the data pad. The amount of data was enough to drive any technology priest crazy.
Then he made crazy calculations.
Over the years, Kaul has conducted in-depth research on subspace energy, hoping to use data such as energy concentration and decay rate.
The approximate size of the gap is estimated.
During high-speed input, sparks flew between his manipulator and the input device.
After a while, with the CPU at red temperature, he came up with the final answer.
Looking at the answer, Kaul couldn't help but curse: "Oh my God...Omnisiah!"
His body trembled slightly, and some engine oil oozed from his forehead:
"Gen...According to speculation, that crack can accommodate demons to pass through. If the guess is correct, more demons will come in than we thought..."
"Hurry and prepare the assault ship to meet Carter and the others at any time!"< br>
After hearing the answer, Ron's heart skipped a beat and he immediately issued the order!
Under normal circumstances, it would not take Carter and the others such a long time to deal with several demons.
After not coming back for so long, there is a high probability that I have encountered more demons.
What's even more troublesome is that the arrival of the research ship has broken the peace of the Webway.
Those demons who smell the breath of the material world will gather together and attack the webway gate at all costs!
Ron also thought of a more terrifying possibility.
There are countless demons in the subspace, if only ordinary demons discovered the cracks in the webway.
That’s fine.
If the Four Evil Gods of Chaos discover this crack, they will never give up this golden opportunity.
After all, Chaos Demons can generally only accumulate enough energy through world gates, sacrificial rituals, or slow corruption.
Only then can we come to the material world.
However, the existence of the cracks in the webway is equivalent to giving them a high-speed passage.
Just like the cracks in the webway beneath Holy Terra.
The Four Evil Gods of Chaos will definitely send the Chaos Demon to lead an army of demons to occupy this new webway rift.
This will become the bridgehead for the forces of chaos to invade the material world.
In a daze, Ron seemed to see the black stone toilet waving to him, wishing he was treated like an emperor.
Actually, if he can block the toilet, that is the best situation. If he cannot block the toilet, the God Emperor cannot block two toilets at the same time.
He will become the number one sinner of the human empire.
Of course, this is just the most extreme case.
So far, no traces of the Four Evil Gods of Chaos have been found on the demons they encountered.
"Savior!"
The messenger suddenly shouted: "Sir Carter sent a message, let us... run away!"
What?
Ron's heart skipped a beat. It seemed like they were really in big trouble!
At the same time, he felt a huge aura of chaos approaching.
Ron suddenly turned around and looked out the porthole, and immediately shouted: "Hurry up and pick up Carter and the others!"
In his sight, he vaguely saw the running figures of Carter and others.
Behind them, in the sky and on the ground, were evil black shadows like a tide.
Those...are all demons!
On the ground, the Thunder Guards ran wildly, killing the demons in front of them from time to time.
Carter's face became increasingly grim.
This sudden attack by the devil caused him to lose a good brother!
Whoosh——
Several assault ships flew over at high speed to respond, the hatches opened, and the Thunder Guards activated their jump packs and jumped into the cabin.
Carter was the last to enter the cabin.
He suddenly turned around, raised his hand and pinched the neck of a demon that flew in, and punched the opponent's head open.
The moment before the hatch closed, he threw the demon corpse violently, smashing away another demon who wanted to come in.
The assault ship stretched its speed to the limit and flew crazily towards the exit of the webway.
In front of the assault ship was the research ship that had taken off early.
Boom, boom, boom——
The cannon at the rear of the ship fired a large amount of artillery fire to block the advance speed of the demon tide.
However, there were too many demons, and these attacks had no effect at all.
Fortunately, the demons are not that fast.
"Faster!"
In the bridge, Ron urged the pilot.
They must rush to the teleportation gate quickly, go out through the teleportation gate, and then seal the entrance.
Lest any demons take the opportunity to escape outside.
“We’re here!”
Not long after, he saw the teleportation gate, the assault ship, and the research ship, passing through the gate one after another and disappearing.
Behind, the wave of demons saw the teleportation gate, roared with excitement, and rushed towards the gate desperately.
……
Black stone gate.
Boom——
Several assault ships suddenly flew out.
An assault ship moved too fast and passed by the mechanical buildings in the outer ring, damaging many things.
The next moment.
The research ship also flew out.
In the Blackstone Throne, Ron's consciousness returned to his original body and he nervously looked at the teleportation gate through the mechanical screen.
After seeing all the ships coming out, he immediately controlled the throne and began to seal the door.
Zizi~
The speed of extracting spiritual energy from the throne instantly accelerated, and a violent electric arc exploded.
Holy shit!
Ron felt that the throne's psychic energy extraction speed doubled, and severe pain spread throughout his body.
At the same time, he could see.
The color of the teleportation gate became more intense, and almost golden energy spread from the surroundings to the center.
This energy is used to block the teleportation gate.
Ron could sense that the wave of demons had arrived in front of the teleportation gate.
They rushed towards the door even more crazily.
"Hurry..."
Fortunately, he completely sealed the door before the wave of demons entered!
"Well, one is missing?" Ron looked at the mechanical screen with a strange expression.
That's a lucky guy...
Blackstone Gate Platform.
Boom, boom, boom!
A huge demonic body stepped out of the door.
It was a high-level demon close to four meters in size. It was exuding thick demonic flames and had an astonishing momentum.
Roar——
The high-level demon was extremely excited and roared loudly.
It has finally arrived in the legendary material world, where it can feast and devour fresh flesh and blood.
However, the next moment, it froze.
Ouch?
In the sight of the high-level demon:
Above the starry sky is a fleet that covers the sky and the sun, with countless cold muzzles facing here.
On the ground is a team of nearly a thousand Thunder Guards, Void Angels, and War Angels.
There is also an entire heavy-duty combined brigade in the rear, using heavy armed equipment to build a dense defensive front.
The high-level demon's cold eyes showed a trace of fear, but it did not worry too much because there were more demon armies behind it!
The demon army will tear the humans who dare to stop them into pieces and then swallow them!
However, it noticed something was wrong, why was it so quiet?
The high-level demon turned and looked back, only to see an empty teleportation gate filled with golden energy.
There is not a single demon.
? ? ?
Now, am I the only one left?
