Warhammer: Black Emperor

Chapter 118 Hunting the Savage Spirits (Part )

The Triken system is crucial in Nimrod's future plans. He will be the industrial center of the brewing kingdom.

Nimrod handed over the Triken star system to Sanchez, and he and the five "hunters" of the Seventh Regiment would complete the hunt for the Savage Eldar.

The Trikon system is the virgin world of the Eldar, and theirs are lush and verdant paradise worlds.

The Virgin Worlds were originally just dead worlds. The Eldar Empire before the "Fall of the Eldar" used advanced surface transformation technology to transform these unusable planets into lush and habitable worlds to meet the growing demand for living.

Nimrod knew that the future human empire would occupy the Trikon system.

Triken Prime, rich in mineral resources, will be developed by the Adeptus Mechanicus into a Forge World, while Triken II, IV, and V will become three Knight Worlds to protect the Forge World.

Nimrod must eliminate the barbaric Eldar who occupy this place before the Mechanicus and develop five habitable planets in the galaxy.

"My Lord, a target has appeared at hunting point A-004."

Julian, the leader of the guards who is both a telekinetic psychic and a "hunter", handed the eyescreen to Sanchez.

The "Hunter" has a clear view of the situation at hunting point A-004 through the eye screen.

A company of the 333rd Regiment of the Solar Auxiliary Forces was sent there to hunt the local wildlife, a creature with the body of a cheetah and the head of a bear.

And they were actually one of the baits thrown by the "Hunter". Through the testing, observation and confrontation during this period, he had gained a considerable understanding of the Triken Savage Eldar. They would not allow outsiders to destroy the environment.

This is their weakness, and the "hunter" can set a trap.

Sanchez handed the data tablet back to Julian. "That's the hunting grounds of Captain Szczesny. I have faith in his abilities."

"Monitor the A-007 hunting grounds. The Eldar will surely take the bait I've thrown."

The "Hunter" had prepared for this day for a whole sidereal month. He personally used materials to make traps and set up ambush points.

The lord also ordered all teams to use this place as a supply point.

He believed that those who lived in the wild world and were the remnants of ancient aliens must understand that attacking supply points would pose a huge threat to outsiders.

While Sanchez was thinking, Julian's excited voice rang out.

"My Lord, the prey has been hooked."

The lord of the Seventh Regiment quickly took the data pad and checked the screen.

Thousands of dinosaur riders launched an attack on the supply point.

The skin of the Savage Eldar has turned bluish-gray, and their cheekbones and brow ridges are inlaid with dinosaur tooth bones.

The dinosaur mounts they sat on were slender and light, with spring-like hind legs and extra-long calf bones.

The dinosaur's head was low and long, with a unique concave upturned snout and dozens of serrated, curved teeth on its upper jaw.

Their hind limbs evolved into curved sickle claws covered with keratin sheaths and as sharp as scalpels.

Their three forelimbs have hooked claws, which show at a glance that they have strong grasping ability.

"It's time to hunt."

Hunter said excitedly, striding out of the black tent and heading towards the motorcycle.

At the A-007 hunting point, the Savage Eldar urged their dinosaurs to attack the human supply point with a roar.

A wild elf holding a white bone spear took the lead and in a blink of an eye was only a hundred meters away from the human camp.

At this moment, his mount suddenly fell down.

The Savage Eldar reacted quickly. He decisively placed his feet on the back of his mount and used the momentum to leap upwards. As he tumbled through the air, he wondered in confusion.

[How could the monkeys' trap be so hidden that I didn't even notice it.]
The perception of the elves is far superior to that of humans, and this is especially true for the savage elves living in the wilderness.

Just as he was puzzled, there was a sudden explosion and a bomb shot towards him rapidly. Before he could react, it pierced his spine and exploded.

The dinosaur that another Savage Eldar sat on exploded as soon as its left hind paw touched the ground, and it died instantly. The flying fragments also killed another unlucky guy.

As the bodies of the Savage Elf fell to the ground, dozens of their fellow tribesmen also died in confusion.

The Savage Eldar behind stopped in a panic, and they all turned their eyes to the rider sitting on a dinosaur that was two heads taller than the other dinosaurs.

After thinking for a few seconds, the tribal leader raised his right arm and swung it forward vigorously. He shouted in the local Eldar language.

"The monkey must die. This is our home, our world."

"Spread the charge!"

The dinosaur riders immediately divided into several columns and rushed towards the supply camp.

The hidden traps set by the "hunter" were triggered one by one, and every moment, there were elves falling.

But they did not retreat, nor did they stop,

At the same time, the defenders in the supply camp also reacted. A company of soldiers from the 333rd Regiment stationed there hid behind stacked crates and other shelters, raised their weapons and opened fire on the Eldar.

The dinosaur knights armed with bows and arrows raised their bows and shot arrows at the monkeys who dared to fight back.

In order to escape Slaanesh's eternal pursuit, the Savage Eldar chose to come to the Savage World and live a primitive and simple life. They learned to grow crops and collect natural resources by hand like their ancient ancestors, but they actually mastered many advanced technologies possessed by the ancient Eldar Empire.

Their manufacturing methods, which combined psionic energy and craftsmanship, produced weapons that were far more advanced than those of truly barbaric primitive people.

The "wooden" arrows easily penetrated the armor of the Sun Auxiliary Army, and dozens of elite soldiers fell down with a volley of fire from the Savage Eldar.

The dinosaur riders shot while riding their mounts. Their agility allowed them to draw their bows and shoot arrows smoothly and accurately hit their opponents even behind the dinosaurs galloping at high speed and across the bumpy terrain.

What affected their attacks more than the beams of light shot by the monkeys were the despicable traps.

The Savage Eldar used their superhuman perception to find traces of some traps.

The dust-covered disposable bomb detonation devices, those fragile things, will be damaged after firing the bomb.

They also found and locked the positions of those grenades one by one.

But the despicable monkey who set the trap seemed to expect them to find it.

He set up multiple, chain-linked triggers in the trap. When the Savage Eldar carefully avoided the place where the grenade was buried, his mount touched an imperceptible thin wire, and the grenade bounced up suddenly and hit him accurately.

The "hunter" with a superhuman brain set up multiple-triggered, stacked three-dimensional traps around the camp to entertain his prey.

When the first Savage Elf rushed into the camp, hundreds of Savage Elf had already fallen in the charge.

When the Dinosaur Knight excitedly raised his spear, a loud noise suddenly sounded behind him.

A series of buried Mark XIX melta bombs exploded.

The blazing fireworks burst into life, and the intense thermal energy explosion "melted" the Savage Eldar who had just gathered into a team, along with the dinosaurs.

The "hunter" who had just arrived at the hunting ground admired his masterpiece and felt as if something in his body had "melted".

Sanchez's eyes flashed and locked onto the leader of the Savage Eldar tribe who had luckily avoided the explosion and was fleeing in a panic with his guards. He sensed that it was a "big prey".
