Chapter 2661 The Undead Appears
The walls of the command post hall are lined with rows of meditators. Some have been shattered, and some are still running quietly. The array of meditators extends to another huge The vaulted halls, armored glass boxes, workbenches piled with data boards, and the remains of genestealers in broken sample tubes on the floor indicate that it was once used by the Adeptus Mechanicus as one of the laboratories for alien research.
"If it was a Genestealer attack, they would not leave the same kind of remains here."
Technical Sergeant Carl observed while walking towards a damaged monitoring station with a robotic arm on it. It was damaged, and the fiber bundles at the break were still sparking.
He stretched out a metal probe and pierced the broken device, then turned to look at other parts.
"Can you restore the monitoring content in the room?"
Faced with the company commander's inquiry, the technical sergeant shook his head.
"No, it's strange. The data here has been destroyed. I'm not sure whether it was done by the enemy or the priest here, but I feel more like I was attacked by some kind of electronic weapon, but This does not conform to the characteristics of all the electronic attacks I know."
At this time, Surena suddenly recalled something and said softly:
"Is it possible to have Necrons. ”
As he said this, the technical sergeant's expression froze, but after a moment he suddenly clapped his hands.
"Yes, those scratches must be huge metal claws, and they are very sharp and hard metal. Gene stealers will not have weapons made of this material, only Necrons."
“So this place was attacked by the Necrons, but they have never been sighted before, and their tomb should be under Scorch Oven City”
Right here At this moment, Surena saw something moving out of the corner of his eye and immediately tightened his grip on the plasma pistol. The technical sergeant then asked:
"What's wrong?"
"There's something here. It's coming."
The technical sergeant raised his head and saw something coming out of the hole in the ceiling. It seemed to have slipped down from the second floor of the building. It made a kind of noise when it moved. Metallic buzzing - look closely and you'll see it's a giant metallic insect, as flat as a scarab, with vicious-looking hooks and claws on its edges, hanging in the air on its silver wings, dragging its ribbons with it. Bladed limbs, tiny red lenses focused on the Space Marines, gleaming jaws clicking.
"Necrons' micro-machines"
As soon as they finished speaking, everyone heard a low and loud crackling and buzzing sound coming from above their heads, and then a part of the ceiling began to vibrate with thousands of voices. Tens of thousands of metal scarabs collapsed under the weight, and they rolled down from the collapsed place like an avalanche.
Before Surena could even react, a beetle swooped down on him, its jaws squeaking against his armor.
"Damn it!"
Surena slapped the beetles on his body to pieces, and then waved his power sword to smash the scurrying beetles.
Beside him, Techmarine was doing the same thing, sweeping the space around him with his cog-axe as other Terminators began firing wildly at the floor around them, blasters shattering countless Saints. beetles, but there are countless bugs swarming to fill the void.
"Watch the sides!"
From elsewhere in the hall, more miniature killing machines were curling up their spindly legs, leaping forward and buzzing through the corridors.
"Get out! Get out of here!"
Surena knew that the longer he stayed here, the more dangerous he would be, so after throwing a plasma grenade, he began to direct the team to retreat to the door. "Flamethrower!"
Technical Sergeant Carl shouted over the din of chirping.
“Use this against them!”
A veteran with heavy fire breathing blocked the door, washing every area with solidified and liquefied flames.
Scarabs twitched in the flames, like ashes rising from a fire, and some circled upward with flaming wings.
At this time, gunshots were heard elsewhere, and reports from the team poured into Surena.
“Enemies found outside the wall! They emerge from the ground!”
“Aliens with claws wearing human skin!”
"Necrons, these are Necron! Blast them in the head with plasma!"
"Can the automatic turret be restored?"
Surena knew that to restore the automatic turret, he must enter The control room, but now it was full of scarabs. Then he looked up at the sky. The Storm Falcons and Thunder Eagles were strafing and bombarding, and there were continuous explosions outside the stronghold.
Just when he was about to turn on a driver's visual display to see the size of the enemy, the wall on one side was suddenly knocked open, and Surena who was standing nearest was knocked away.
What hit the wall was a monster. It looked like a solid rectangular parallelepiped, bigger than a Cruel Blade. Its thick, segmented legs kept squirming under its lower body. Vicious claws protruded from both sides of its mouth, and its head was nothing more than a metal plate covered with lenses. Many scarabs gathered on this creature. Surena had never seen such a weird mechanical body before, nor did he Know it's called Tomb Stalker.
Feeling threatened, the fire-breathing Terminator turned around and bumped into its two large claws.
Out of instinct, the Terminator veteran aimed his weapon at the enemy, and the burning flames roared and devoured its body - but it had no effect.
Then the pliers tightly clamped the Terminator's helmet, more limbs were nailed to the Terminator, and he was picked up from the ground. Then another pair of pliers clamped the veteran's arm at extremely fast speeds and pulled Break off his weapon-holding arm.
So much so that before anyone could save him, the head of the mechanical body bloomed like a metal flower with sharp petals. Its sharp mouthparts ruthlessly cut open the Terminator's helmet and pierced the veteran's head. The back of the head.
When the Space Marine's head exploded, blood and flesh spurted out.
During their long periods of dormancy, the Necron are protected by silent and tireless machines, and of these powerful mechanical engines, the most terrifying are known to their unfortunate human victims as Tomb Stalkers.
The Tomb Stalker possesses a solid shell of living metal covered with mechanical parts, bladed limbs and sharp armor plates. This centipede-shaped structure is often as big as a dozen people and utilizes mysterious It can drill into the lord's tomb and come and go freely in the solid ground. It can also make it pass through inert materials like water, pass through rocks and stones, and effortlessly pass through the ground that is often scattered around. The ruins and rough terrain of the battlefield.
With a combination of massive size and regenerative abilities, the Tomb Stalker is a nearly indestructible war machine, surpassing even the more common Necron Legion warriors. These insectoid creatures lash out and attack with relentless ferocity. Kill, although wounded or dismembered.
Therefore, only strong fire suppression is possible to harm the Tomb Stalker.
