Travel to Warhammer 40K with Gray Wind

Chapter 24 Gale Iron Plague

They looked roughly the same, but upon closer inspection, they looked completely different. They looked like steel giants forcibly piled up from various parts. They were covered with crazy artillery and held an oversized chainsaw in their hands. .

From a distance, they look like oversized, heavily armored orcs.

The Titan units of the green-skinned orcs: Iron Giants and Ancient Giants. It's long overdue.

The emergence of the Iron Giants and Ancient Giants forced the Imperial Titans to focus their main attention on the enemy Titan units. The accompanying appearance of various walking tin can mechas made the Space Marine troops lacking fire support more difficult to fight. The pressure on the mortal armored divisions suddenly soared.

But overall, they were still moving steadily towards the strong fortress where the orc leader was hiding.

There is no doubt that this will be a hard battle, and even if the Empire is able to win in the end, the price paid will be extremely heavy. However, they still have the huge variable of the Cyberlux battle body.

There is no doubt that Titan units have a great impact on the battle situation, not to mention the extremely specialized extreme output type Titans such as Cyberlux, not to mention that there are 18 of these units. Such a force can be used properly. , can almost influence the apocalypse-level war.

The orc's ancient giant garbage is as brittle as a biscuit in front of its powerful firepower. Even with the blessing of a waaagh!!! force field, it cannot withstand the all-round coverage of the combat body for too long.

The admirals and psychic advisors on the Penitent Fire couldn't help but sigh, where did the Falla dig up so many usable ancient heritages... It's a pity that they have never been able to contact the planetary governor of Falla, that bastard Don't know where he went.

With the support of combat troops, this ground war that took place on the fighting moon can be said to be one of the few that the imperial army has ever seen. It can truly be called a smooth battle with "the advantage is mine". If the advantage can last, victory will only come sooner or later. question.

It's a pity that there is no such thing.

As the war progressed, the think tank units in each Space Marine Chapter noticed something strange hidden in the Green Tide.

The Legion of Martyrs fought their way through the green tide spreading across the galaxy before they were able to board the Battle Moon to participate in this decisive battle. Every member of the Legion is a tough warrior who is one in a million.

They had roughly figured out the temperament of the orcs in previous battles, and gradually figured out their own set of tactics to deal with this brutal, murderous and unreasonable dirty alien. After finding the feeling, generally speaking, the fight became smoother and smoother. .

But now, those practical skills honed from countless battles to deal with ordinary orcs no longer seem to be very effective.

These orcs on the Battle Moon are "essentially" different from the orcs in other parts of the galaxy. Their movements seem to be slower, and their bodies are relatively fragile, and they can easily lose half of their bodies with an explosive bomb.

But at the same time, their recovery ability is also stronger - although the recovery ability of ordinary orcs is already very strong.

——The tall orc whose abdomen was blasted by a large-caliber grenade, even with a broken spine, could still pick up a gun and continue fighting with only his upper body, and he could even aim.

——The remains of the orcs split into pieces by the chain sword will not die immediately, but will crawl and squirm randomly on the ground, pieced together into strange individuals with limbs, feet, heads and bodies each belonging to five or six different orcs. Only It takes flamethrowers and high explosives to completely burn it to ashes.

Although the human empire has long known that green-skinned orcs are actually psychic mushrooms with various ingredients from fungi, plants, and animals, this mushroom on the battle moon... seems to be particularly mushroomy.

On the Seeker space station, Gray Feng, who remotely controlled the combat troops through sub-processes, also noticed something strange at this moment.

The weapons of the fighting body are still sharp and the destructive power is still devastating, but when controlling these big guys to move forward, an indescribable sense of sluggishness always accompanies Gray Feng's consciousness.

At first it thought it was some kind of binding magnetic field in the battle moon, but as the Imperial Titans entered the battlefield, it discovered that the "Night Lord" and the Titan legions he led moved very quickly. Among all the Titan units on the battlefield, , only the movement of the Cyberlux battle body was particularly difficult, and there was a strange slimy feeling when walking, as if walking in a swamp.

The nano-repair system carried on the body was still faithfully performing its repair duties, but in the endless battle, Gray Wind discovered that some parts of the body - such as the ankle joints equipped with energy shield generators and The calf area is beyond repair.

The information sent back by the sub-processes carried on the body is that there are no mechanical structures that can be repaired by the nano-repair system in these places. They are all organic matter.

Organic matter...?

Gray Wind thought of something terrifying, something that the Marshal would often mention when he told it stories every night:

Chaos corrupts.

The loyal metal gradually turns into strange living flesh, which is one of the manifestations of being corrupted by the evil power of the warp.

There is a special term used to describe this phenomenon of mechanical infection: Gale Iron Plague.

If the truth is what Gray Wind thinks, then the strange phenomena on the Battle Moon can be explained.

The sacred binary code and the Holy Word of the Emperor can be seen everywhere on the Imperial Titan. Before entering the battlefield with the Imperial Holy Emblem, he also had the priests and technical priests of the Ecclesiarchy line up to take turns chanting sutras and kowtowing. The master danced alone for three days and three nights. To please the machine soul, one is naturally not afraid of general evil and filth.

The Cyberlux battle body does not have this kind of treatment. To be precise, a mass-produced machine like it assembled from an industrial assembly line has no machine soul at all.

"But why is there Chaos pollution on the Battle Moon?"

Gray Wind couldn't understand that the orcs were a psychic gestalt race that was almost impossible to be corrupted by chaos. Their waaagh!!! energy was different from any kind of subspace power. It was better to believe that the orcs would be corrupted by chaos than to believe that they could travel through chaos. Shang Lanjia calls himself an extreme warrior.

"What if it's not the orcs that are corrupted, but something else that coexists with the orcs?"

A voice like this suddenly came from a communication channel that had been silent for a long time.

"marshal!"

Gray Wind was overjoyed: "Marshal, where did you go? I, I don't know what to do... There are actually tentacles growing in the armor of the battle body..."

Russell's voice was very calm, even inhumane:

"Your judgment is correct. There is indeed chaos pollution inside the Battle Moon. It is not surprising that a combat body that lacks psychic protection will be infected if it fights in this environment for a long time."

Hearing the Marshal's voice without panic, Gray Feng felt more at ease: "But logically speaking, the orcs should not be contaminated by Chaos..."

"That's true in theory." Russell sighed softly: "But, Gray Wind, you should already know why the Human Empire is chasing the orcs, right?"
