Warhammer: Starting with Industrial Revolution

Chapter 108: Despair



Chapter 108: Despair

The war boss appeared, and the troops quickly halted their advance, establishing defensive positions on the spot using makeshift shields.

The petrified lizard self-propelled artillery quickly aimed, and the high-explosive shells, trailing long tongues of fire, accurately struck the area around Rockbreaker Bloodaxe and his personal guards.

A series of huge explosions rang out, and smoke and dust instantly engulfed them.

Immediately afterwards, the mortar and rocket artillery teams launched a second salvo.

Countless shells rained down, causing the entire battlefield to tremble violently.

But as the smoke gradually dissipated, everyone gasped in shock.

The Rockbreaker Blood Axe and his twenty burly bodyguards stood unharmed.

The shells left only shallow scratches on their thick armor.

Looking at the green-skinned remains scattered on the ground, Rockbreaker Bloodaxe was not angry at all. Instead, he grinned, revealing a set of yellowed fangs, and let out a piercing laugh.

He stopped and slammed the huge chainsaw axe in his hand into the ground.

The next second, he actually started speaking.

The sound rolled in like muffled thunder, making everyone's ears ring. With each word he spoke, he stomped his foot hard on the ground.

"I! Rock Breaker Blood Axe!

It has smashed the hardest stone!

It has bitten through the thickest steel pipe!

I've killed seven bosses who didn't submit to me!

Human boys, you're very interesting!

They're way more interesting than those useless people who just hide behind iron houses!

But it didn't work!

I'll smash you all into mincemeat!

Your guns! Your cannons! Your lumps of iron!

They're all mine!

Human boys, fire!

Your weak guns and cannons can't hurt me at all!

Your bullets are like tickles to me!

俺!

Rockbreaker Blood Axe!

They are the best fighters!

WAAAGH!"

With his roar, a visible green energy field erupted from his body.

His body seemed to swell even larger, his eyes turned blood red, and he was in a state of extreme rage.

Even though it was just him and his twenty burly bodyguards, they brought an overwhelming aura.

"Fire! Fire! What are you all standing there for?!"

Garland roared and pulled the trigger first.

The soldiers then came to their senses, and countless bullets and shells poured down on the Rockbreaker Blood Axe like a tidal wave.

But he laughed even more wildly, and strode forward, charging straight toward the Imperial Army's position.

"It's no use! Those weak human brats' cannon fire can't hurt me! I'm invincible!"

In just a few seconds, he rushed to the front line of the position.

As planned, the Imperial Army quickly spread out to both sides, revealing the Leman Rustank, which had been poised for battle.

Eight tanks fired simultaneously, hitting Rockbreaker Blood Axe in the chest at almost point-blank range.

At the same time, Viktor's fighter servants swarmed forward, surrounding him and his personal guards, unleashing a barrage of fire from bolters and molten guns.

This attack, powerful enough to destroy any armored target, still failed to harm Rockbreaker Blood Axe in the slightest.

He grabbed a nearby fighter jet and, like throwing a toy, slammed it hard onto the lead Leman Rustank.

A violent explosion occurred instantly, blowing the tank's turret more than ten meters high, and engulfing the surrounding soldiers in flames.

Seeing this, Victor instantly ordered all his fighter servants to stick to Rockbreaker Bloodaxe and his bodyguard, Big Guy.

A flash of bright light, and a huge explosion sent a small mushroom cloud rising in the center of the battlefield.

Even the perpetually murky, dark red sky above Calon II cleared up for a moment under the impact of the explosion.

The billowing dust once again enveloped everything.

"All troops, focus fire! Don't stop!"

Luo Ning gave a stern order. He knew all too well the "no harm in smoke" principle and wouldn't be foolish enough to wait for the smoke to dissipate.

Even if the combat power of Rockbreaker Blood Axe has surpassed the understanding of common sense, he could never completely ignore the attacks of all weapons. Even if each attack only causes him damage like a mosquito bite, the cumulative effect is astonishing!

But the next second, a twisted and deformed Leman Rustank suddenly flew out of the smoke and dust.

It crashed heavily to the ground, triggering another violent explosion that instantly claimed the lives of hundreds of soldiers.

Rockbreaker Bloodaxe burst out of the smoke.

Several cracks finally appeared in his armor, and green blood flowed down the wounds.

But instead of weakening him, this made him even more violent.

He charged into the human lines, completely ignoring the gunfire and artillery fire around him, moving at high speed and wildly swinging his chainsaw axe.

Each swing of the axe could cut more than a dozen soldiers in half at the waist.

Each stomp of his foot could crack the earth and send people flying.

Blood and bits of flesh flew everywhere, and screams of agony echoed throughout the air.

This is the strength of the 200,000-level Green Skin War boss.

A real monster.

A monster that no mortal can fight.

Standing on the command vehicle, Luo Ning looked at the scene before him, which resembled a living hell, and a sense of despair arose in his heart.

The risks of intelligence errors are often fatal, but he certainly didn't expect it to be this fatal.

His troops are already the most elite planetary defense force in the entire sector.

They have professional veteran training, Dark Age armor and weapons, tanks and self-propelled artillery.

But in front of this monster, they were truly as vulnerable as toys.

But then he realized that Viktor, who was beside him, had silently left at some point.

He turned around abruptly and saw Victor and the mechanical priests gathered in front of the trailer at the back of the procession. They were surrounding the mysterious large iron box, devoutly reciting ancient prayers praising Omnesia.

The priests tumbled to the ground, pulled out silver bottles of holy oil from their robes, and carefully applied them to each lock and latch.

Then, Victor himself broke the chains that sealed the seal.

The chief priest of the Mechanical Church on the planet Vatos VII, the Sector Sage, is finally about to unseal this most treasured possession.

With the clanging of chains and the sound of gears turning, the iron box opened to the sides.

White, low-temperature steam billowed out, carrying the smells of engine oil and ozone, instantly enveloping the entire area.

The moment the steam dissipated, everyone held their breath.

A seven-meter-tall steel giant lies quietly asleep inside the box.

It wasn't the angular conqueror the Empire was mass-producing now; its lines were heavier and more archaic, and its entire body was covered in polished, gleaming gold armor, covered with scratches and craters of varying depths—medals left by centuries of war.

Its right arm is a robust plasma incineration cannon, with ancient burn marks still remaining on the muzzle; its left arm is a gleaming power gauntlet with small gear emblems engraved on the knuckles; and on each shoulder rests a twin-barreled heavy explosive bolter, its cold barrels pointing towards the sky.

Its name is engraved on its chest in ancient script:

Omnisaiah's Fist
