Chapter 785: Destroying the Giant Weapon Factory (1)

First Defense Zone Inner City Giant Weapon Factory.

"Alien construct! Your shield cannot protect you from your destruction!"

The voice of Sanguinius resounded across the entire battlefield.

The wings behind him erupted with searing radiance, and he transformed into a humanoid golden sun, charging toward the rippling energy shield of the Shield-Guard Giant Soldier.

A siege cone formed in the hand of the Shield-Guard Giant Soldier, attempting to crush Sanguinius.

At the same time, the energy shield surrounding its body flared with intense light.

"A mere parlor trick!"

Sanguinius roared, the tip of his power spear condensing highly compressed psychic energy as he thrust toward the shield!

Zzzzt—Boom!!!

The moment the spear tip made contact with the energy shield, a piercing shriek and terrifying turbulent energy erupted.

Golden psychic energy and the blue shield field collided violently and annihilated each other.

The body of the Shield-Guard Giant Soldier was pushed backward by this strike, the alloy floor emitting a "creak."

The shield, capable of deflecting impacts, fluctuated violently; the ripples turned into a frantic vortex, and the light in the area where the core was pierced dimmed rapidly.

"Impossible... energy overload... shield core... damaged..."

Chaotic alarms sounded inside the Shield-Guard Giant Soldier, and the Cyberk soldier operating it immediately uploaded this situation via the Public Consciousness Network.

"Break!"

Sanguinius bellowed, his radiance surging once more, his power instantly escalating.

Crack—!

The energy shield shattered at the tip of Sanguinius's spear.

The psychic-entwined spear tip met no further resistance, piercing fiercely into the thick, diamond-shaped armor on the chest of the Shield-Guard Giant Soldier.

Boom!!!

Destructive psychic energy surged madly into the body of the Shield-Guard Giant Soldier along the spear shaft.

The massive frame of the Shield-Guard Giant Soldier trembled violently, the chest armor caving inward and melting through, while muffled sounds of chain explosions echoed from the internal structure.

The massive body crashed to its knees, then slammed heavily forward onto the ground, kicking up a sky full of dust and metal fragments.

In mere seconds, the indestructible Shield-Guard Giant Soldier was reduced to scrap metal under the Angel's wrath!

"Lord Sanguinius... he... he..."

Sherlock, slumped behind a breach in the city wall, witnessed this scene, his brain completely crashing, capable only of emitting meaningless syllables.

Dismantling a Giant Soldier with bare hands?

This had completely exceeded his conceptual understanding of "power."

Dalton stared at the melted hole in the chest of the Shield-Guard Giant Soldier, and the precision structures exposed inside that were still sparking with electricity.

"That kind of armor... that energy level... how could it be... be... pierced by a spear?!"

Just as Sanguinius dealt with the Shield-Guard Giant Soldier, a Reconnaissance Type Giant Soldier used optical camouflage to blend almost perfectly into the environment, its chest honeycomb crystal array locking onto the rear of the Death Korps of Krieg, who were locked in a bitter struggle with a sea of infantry.

An invisible, high-frequency infrasonic wave spread out.

The target was the fragile biological brain.

However, its actions had long been perceived by the hunter in the shadows.

"Shadow is my domain."

The low voice of Corax sounded.

Just as the infrasonic wave was about to erupt, the figure of Corax emerged from the shadow of the Reconnaissance Giant Soldier itself.

The power sword in his hand did not slash at the armor, but with precision, carrying dark psychic energy that tore through space, it stabbed into the fragile honeycomb crystal array core on the chest of the Reconnaissance Giant Soldier.

Pshhh—Vroom!!!

The crystal core shattered instantly.

The infrasonic wave energy, condensed halfway, lost control and backfired, exploding violently inside the Reconnaissance Giant Soldier.

This Giant Soldier, which had attempted to harvest in secret, saw its massive, streamlined body begin to tear, twist, and explode from the chest outward.

The shockwave of the explosion blew away nearby Cyberk soldiers and also whipped up a storm of metal fragments, shooting them toward the hiding spot of Sherlock and Dalton.

"Look out!"

The figure of Corax appeared in front of the two like a teleportation, his power sword carving out a dark arc of light, precisely blocking and deflecting all the lethal incoming fragments.

The fragments clattered against the spear shaft and the surrounding metal wreckage.

Sherlock and Dalton, still shaken, huddled in the shadow cast by Corax, watching this silent Primarch stand between them and destruction, a surge of indescribable shock and a trace of gratitude for surviving the ordeal rising in their hearts.

"Roar—!!!"

On the other side of the battlefield, an Assault Type Giant Soldier, carrying an overloaded crimson energy core, brandished a massive power sword humming with a disruption field, charging at high speed toward a Warhound-class Titan!

Its speed was extremely fast, its reverse-jointed structure granting it powerful explosive force.

"High-energy target detected approaching rapidly! Prioritize concentrated fire!"

The Titan captain who had been locked onto emitted a cold mechanical voice.

The Warhound-class Titan quickly adjusted its posture, the massive plasma blast cannon on its left arm beginning to frantically gather blue-white destructive energy. At the same time, the Vulcan Mega-bolter array on its right arm spun at high speed.

"For the Omnissiah! Alien construct! Taste the Emperor's wrath!"

The pilot of another Titan roared in support, his Vulcan Mega-bolter opening fire first!

Bang bang bang bang bang—!!!

A dense, rain-like barrage of bolter fire struck the high-speed charging Assault Type Giant Soldier.

The bolter rounds impacted the energy shield on the surface of the Assault Giant Soldier, erupting in a continuous series of explosions and blinding fire.

"Target kinetic energy compromised! Plasma blast cannon! Fire!"

The Titan pilot locked onto by the assault giant soldier seized the opportunity, the plasma blastgun on the left arm fully charged.

Hum—Boom!!!

A blue-white plasma mass tore through the air, carrying devastating high temperatures, and precisely slammed into the assault giant soldier, whose charge momentum had weakened due to the bolter impact.

The Energy Shield of the assault giant soldier rippled, and finally overloaded.

Sizzle—Boom—!!!!

The residual plasma struck the chest armor of the assault giant soldier.

The armor of the assault giant soldier melted through under the extreme heat of the plasma.

The violent plasma energy instantly detonated the highly unstable Energy Core, which was in an overloaded state.

Rumble rumble rumble—!!!!

The massive crimson body of the assault giant soldier was completely torn apart from the inside.

An exploding Fireball shot into the sky, instantly illuminating the entire factory space!

The shockwave violently pushed everything nearby away, including the Warhound Titan that had just completed the fatal strike, its Void Shield flickering violently!

"Target confirmed destroyed!"

The Titan captain said without a ripple of emotion.

"Well done!"

The voice of Sanguinius came through.

However, the soldiers of Cyberk, new "Crushers" and "Swarm" were pouring out from every passage.

Five Grey Knights clad in silver-white Holy Shield Power Armor, engraved with exorcism Rune, appeared on the battlefield.

Leading them, Valantis held high the Heavenly Punishment Demon-Cleaving Halberd, and sacred prayers resonated across the battlefield, bolstered by psychic power.

"In the name of the Emperor! Filthy mechanical Heretic! Feel the wrath of pure psychic power!"
