Protagonist:

Lin En

Lena

The silver shuttlecraft shuttled through the vacuum, finally hovering at the edge of an asteroid belt.

Lin En's gaze was fixed dead on the massive steel fleet in the distance that was currently executing a one-eighty-degree turn.

The colossal Green Skin warships, like a herd of clumsy giant beasts, swung their massive hulls around.

Engine exhaust trails connected into a continuous band in the pitch-black space, forming a spectacular colorful river that slowly flowed toward the direction of Dolido Planet.

Only the dozen-odd warships at the very front still charged toward Kal II Space Station like unbridled wild horses, as if they had not noticed that the main fleet had abandoned them.

"Should be."

Lin En's voice carried a trace of barely perceptible chill.

"Lianggenna is absolutely still alive."

There is no other possibility.

If it were merely a new War Boss taking power, the Green Skin fleet would absolutely not retreat at this moment.

Those unruly War Bosses would only seize this opportunity to launch wars like madmen.

Through a great Waaagh, to prove themselves stronger than Lianggenna.

Only Lianggenna himself, the warlord who had ruled the Duo Duo Lv Pi for years, could make these Green Skins willingly abandon a grand war and turn tail in retreat.

"He runs really fast."

Lena's figure appeared silently beside Lin En.

She did not manifest Lena Dahan's colossal form today, but instead took the shape of a young girl wearing a purple long dress.

Silver-white long hair fell to her waist; purple eyes like the purest amethyst.

If one did not know her true identity, anyone would mistake her for an ordinary noble young lady.

From the knowledge in books she learned that men are all philanderers; although she knows Lin En is absolutely loyal to her.

The understanding her always switches between different forms, even species, to stay by Lin En's side.

She leaned lightly against Lin En's shoulder, her tone carrying a trace of regret: "Our shuttlecraft isn't fast enough; we can't catch up to their main cruiser."

"Although those Green Skin engines are junk, under the Waaagh force field they run faster than our shuttle."

Lin En glanced at the young girl and nodded.

He still preferred the Norn Emissary's appearance.

But compared to those messy Xenos from before, humans seem far more amiable.

"Looks like we can only let him off the hook for now." Lin En's tone carried reluctance.

We finally cornered Lianggenna, yet he still got away.

And he resurrected in a strange way unknown to them, which filled Lin En's heart with unease.

Just what is that so-called "Furnace Seed God"?

Some unknown Chaos Evil God? Or some even more ancient, more chaotic existence?

Lin En's heart was full of questions.

"Ah~, I have an idea!"

"How about we randomly find a Green Skin warship at the rear, sneak in and follow them back to Dolido?"

Lin En's eyes lit up as he voiced his idea.

"As long as we can infiltrate Dolido Planet, there will always be a chance to find Lianggenna."

"This time, I'll definitely kill him thoroughly, not even leaving his soul behind."

His tone carried dense killing intent.

Lianggenna's undying ability has already posed a huge threat to him.

If he doesn't thoroughly finish him off while he's currently weak, once he recovers it will only bring greater trouble.

But his words had just fallen.

Lena immediately shook her head, reaching out to grab Lin En's arm.

Her eyes were full of worry, and her tone turned serious.

"No, it's too dangerous."

"Lianggenna's ability is too strange; we don't even know how he resurrected."

"Dolido is his stronghold, with billions of Green Skins, unknown War Bosses, and weird Green Skin tech."

"And he's definitely on high alert against you right now."

"Even if we could sneak into Dolido, our movements would likely not be that easy either."

"Risk and reward are completely disproportionate."

Lena spoke rapidly, clearly analyzing the pros and cons.

Her hand tightly gripped Lin En's arm, afraid he might act on impulse and do something dangerous.

Looking at Lena's worried eyes, Lin En's heart warmed slightly.

He took a deep breath, suppressing the killing intent and impulse in his heart.

"You're right."

Lin En sighed, reaching out to ruffle Lena's hair.

"I was too impulsive."

Ever since last time he played a Green Skin and experienced that kind of mad battle desire brought by the Waa'gh force field, he discovered his personality seemed to have received some influence.

Sometimes he would become more irritable, more desirous of battle, and often have some impulsive thoughts pop up.

Fortunately, Lena has always been by his side, reminding him at all times.

Lin En couldn't help but smile self-mockingly.

"It's truly ironic, the coldest, most ruthless killing machine in the entire galaxy, the Tyranids, is actually persuading a human to let go of killing impulses."

Lena raised her head, looking at Lin En's eyes, and said seriously:

"I'm not persuading you to put down killing, I just don't want you to make meaningless sacrifices."

"Killing isn't wrong; as the Bug Race, devouring and destruction are our instincts."

"But our killing also puts interests first, not for a moment's fit of pique."

"Lianggenna will die sooner or later, but not now; we have plenty of time and opportunities."

Her gaze was clear and firm, reflecting Lin En's figure inside.

Lin En looked at her eyes, and the restlessness in his heart gradually calmed down.

He nodded, gripping Lena's hand tightly.

"You're right, we have plenty of time."

Just at this moment.

Lena's eyebrows slightly wrinkled up.

"Right, there's one more thing."

"The half-beastman following Yaduoduo on the Dolido Planet Outer Areas transmitted back some wrong intelligence."

"Hm? What intelligence?"

Lin En's expression immediately became serious.

Something that could make Lena feel it was wrong was absolutely not a small matter.

"On Dolido Planet, a strange plague has broken out."

Lena's tone became heavy.

"According to the half-beastman's transmitted footage, many human corpses climbed out of graves again, turning into unconscious Waa'gh walking corpses."

"Their skin is ulcerated, flowing with green pus, movement slow, but vitality tenacious, tireless, attacking all living things."

"And this plague's spread speed is very fast."

"In just a few days, it has already spread to three continents of Dolido Planet."

Afterwards Lena supplemented some details Yaduoduo observed.

Lin En listened, then swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

Waa'gh plague.

Tenacious vitality.

Green pus.

These characteristics are too familiar.

A nauseating name almost blurted out.

But he held it back in time.

In the Warhammer 40K universe, directly speaking the Chaos Four Little Vendors' names is an extremely dangerous matter.

No one knows whether some Evil God's eyes and ears might be secretly listening.

Lin En immediately activated the system mental link with Lena.

As the safest communication method the system granted them, this absolutely cannot be detected by any external world power.

【How did Nurgle come?】

In the mental link, Lin En spoke that taboo name.
