Chapter 64 The Great Game

The demon's body is very weak.

And the Hive Overlord knows this.

Now is the best time for it to take down the orc warlord.

So after the special operations boys covered the Overlord Demon's retreat to the fortress, the insect swarm launched a frantic siege on the fortress.

This attack was personally led by the Hive Overlord, with countless warrior bugs and Overlord guards as the vanguard. Even if they were rushing forward despite the exaggerated cannon fire of the greenskins, they could cut butter with a hot knife and attack wherever they went. gram.

With just one charge, the trenches in front were filled with black swarms of insects. Although the greenskins stationed inside resisted desperately, many greenskins detonated bombs in the trenches before dying, killing large swaths of insects. Such sacrifices still cannot effectively slow down the enemy.

Less than half an hour after the launch of this wave of attacks, the three lines of trench defense in front were all lost. The insect swarm army quickly approached the city, and the greenskins could only rely on the walls to continue to resist.

"So how is the situation now? Do you think the boys can hold on for a little longer?"

Wei Mu stood on the towering city wall, observing the fierce battle taking place below.

He must be hoping that time can be delayed a little longer so that the Overlord can recover more of his condition in the upcoming showdown with the Hive Overlord.

It's just that he doesn't know much about military affairs, and he is worried that once the bugs tear open the city wall and rush into the fortress, and the greenskins fail to resist it, and they are pushed flatly by the enemy, then things will be very messy.

"Don't worry about this. The houses behind have been militarized. Even if the bugs do rush in, they will be dragged into the brutal urban street fighting by the green skins, which can drag on for a while. Time will not collapse a thousand miles."

Maul pulled out the plasma pistol from his waist and exploded a gargoyle that was trying to sneak up on them.

Once the bugs start attacking, no place can be called absolutely safe. The purpose of such a small attack is not to cause many casualties, but to keep the enemy soldiers' spirits in a state of high vigilance for a long time. By increasing the opponent's mental pressure in this way, the opponent's probability of making a mistake is increased.

"I see." Wei Mu nodded, "Then the fall of the city wall will serve as the signal for the duel to begin. Before that, we must ensure that nothing disturbs the Overlord's rest."

Then, Wei Mu turned his gaze to the distance - that is where the Khorne demonic army descended.

The physical universe was forcibly torn apart by an unreasonable force. The psychic storm from the subspace poured into the surface of the planet. The huge blood-colored energy gathered into a giant cyclone in the sky above that world. The blood god was afraid The corrosion of abuse is constantly infecting everything inside.

"With Stern there to support us, it shouldn't be a problem, right?" Wei Mu whispered, "As long as the invincible orcs on my side can hold on, all the troubles that follow will be solved."

If we want to say that the only variable now is the outrageous power from the subspace evil god.

In order to focus on the next battle, Wei Mu cannot send troops to reinforce that side in a short time. If the corrosion caused by the demon army of Khorne cannot be suppressed, when the blood energy becomes rich, the bloodthirsty demon can even directly attack it. Entire planets were lifted into the warp.

Such a result is by no means what Vymmu expected to see, but Khorne is obviously very interested in what is happening on this planet.

The Lord of the Skull has a premonition that a huge war that would make all the gods pay attention is brewing here.

"So what are you doing here, Three-Born Ones? Is it because of the Green Seer thing? Are you controlling these greenskins to fight against the bugs?"

The murderer asked with a laugh while catching the flexible figure with his battle axe.

The rumors of the Green Seer have rippled in the Sea of ​​Souls, but because the situation in the Octarius sector is complicated and it belongs to the territory of the orcs, the demons have not yet had the opportunity to obtain detailed information related to it.

"I thought that among the monsters like you, only those bird-headed people were talkative. When did the blood god's lackeys also start to have a strong thirst for knowledge?"

Stern once again relied on his dexterity to escape the attack from the bloodthirsty demon.

"Intelligence is part of war!"

As if to vindicate the name of the Demon Army of Khorne, the Killer roared angrily.

Whenever people mention the Khorne faction, they seem to think that the people inside are a group of reckless men whose brains have turned into muscles and only know how to chop and chop. This is actually a very serious prejudice.

The Demon Army of Khorne is just accustomed to using the most direct method to solve problems. In their view, the more plans there are, the greater the possibility of things going wrong, and it is not a matter of being foolhardy.

"But no matter what, Sansheng, I can feel it." The bloodthirsty maniac suddenly stopped attacking and pointed his ax at the fortress in the distance. "In that place, a promotion battle is brewing. That is In a battle between the strong and the strong, only one of the two sides can survive, and the winner will gain greater strength as a result - just like the law advocated by our Lord, the survival of the fittest."

"What happened there has nothing to do with your evil master, so don't put gold on your face." Stern's tone was full of disdain.

"Of course it does matter, Three-Born One, this is the greatness of my Lord. He is the undoubted true God. Any power increased through battle is part of His power, which of course includes your victory over the Great Demon Queen of Slaanesh. The strength gained has increased." The murderer said with a smile.

"That power comes from many of my colleagues, from the Lord of Humanity!" Stern said angrily.

"It also comes from the subspace!" The Killer followed, "You humans can't get rid of the subspace. You need to use it for navigation and communication across galaxies, so you can never get rid of us. It's just you damned ones. The slaves have always been unwilling to admit it. Just like the original truth of the empire, it is a manifestation of self-deception. This is why I say that mankind will eventually fall."

"In that case, let's eliminate you completely." Stern said, "Eliminate you and restore peace to the subspace."

"Destroy? What kind of ignorant idiot thinks he can fight against the gods?" The killer smiled unscrupulously, "Their power is enough to make the entire galaxy wail, and you are just a slightly special one. Just a mortal."

"Have you ever played chess, Sanshengren? No matter how fiercely the chess pieces on the chess board fight, how can they possibly hurt the chess players sitting outside? All these cruel wars that occur in the universe are just gods. Part of a great game.”

The gods set up a chess game to compete for dominance of the subspace in a "competitive" manner. They focused all their attention on this competition, and in fact rarely paid attention to the situation in the physical universe.

But also because of the disordered nature of Chaos, conflict must never end, and the great game will not produce a true winner.

As for the disasters that occurred in the physical universe, they can only be regarded as the aftermath of the great game.

Only when a great threat or opportunity comes, such as the rise of the Emperor, will they have to put aside the great game and unite instead.

After the short-term alliance has passed, the gods' attention will return to the great game and the next battle for power will begin.

Worshipers and followers of the Chaos Gods in the real universe also imitate the great games between the gods. This is what the Daemon Primarch and the other great Champions of Chaos are busy with - fighting for the supremacy of the gods with the might of the gods at their fingertips.

The pain that people have experienced, the blood that has been shed.

Their efforts, their sacrifices.

Everything is just a little entertainment for the subspace demons.

The reality is so cold and dark.
