The strongest astral army in Warhammer 40K

"Aren't these two useless gladiator kings?" Blood Disciple mocked.

"Roar!" Hulk wasn't going to waste any more words with him. He roared and charged forward, swinging his giant axe at the Bloodthirsty.

The Bloodthirsty Disciple did not dodge as the giant axe slammed heavily into his shoulder, the blade cutting deep into his shoulder.

Bloodthirsty chuckled coldly, "I have completed the trial. My lord has bestowed upon me immense power. Ordinary weapons cannot kill me, you foolish orc."

Hulk was shocked and tried to pull out his battle axe, but it was as if the axe was being pressed down by a giant gate, and no matter how hard Hulk tried, he couldn't pull it out.

"Die!" Bloodthirsty roared, extending his right hand to stab the orc's chest.

The sharp bone claws easily pierced through the steel-like muscles, severed the ribs, grabbed the heart, and with a forceful pull, ripped out that steel heart.

Hulk's eyes lost their light, and his massive body collapsed to the ground.

Russell was shocked. He had never expected the enemy to be so powerful. A strong warrior who could fight him to a standstill was instantly killed by the Blood Disciple.

"You lowly beast, now you know how powerful I am!" Blood Disciple said with a sneer, then looked at Russell.

"Are you ready to die?" Bloodthirsty said to Russell.

Although Russell appeared calm on the surface, he was actually quite nervous inside. He didn't think he was a match for his opponent, but at least he wouldn't admit defeat verbally.

"It's really uncertain who will live and who will die right now."

"Kill me with that shovel in your hand? Shovel, hahaha, I think I've seen enough stupid things, but I didn't expect you to be even more stupid today."

Russell brandished the Bloodthirster in his hand and said: "It is indeed a shovel, or more accurately, an entrenching tool, but you will soon see how powerful it is."

"Impressive?" Bloodthirsty Disciple sneered: "It's laughable that even a battle axe can't hurt my shovel."

"Stop talking nonsense, you blood god, slave, lackey, traitor, bastard!" Russell shouted.

"You're courting death! I'm going to rip out your heart and eat it!" Bloodthirsty thug roared.

"So long-winded and full of nonsense."

The Bloodthirsty Blood Clan finally lost their patience and launched an attack.

Perhaps because of his large size, he doesn't move very fast, but he's not very slow either.

The crimson bone claws reached out to grab Russell.

Russell quickly swung the Blood Drinker at the crimson bone claws.

An unexpected scene unfolded: the seemingly indestructible bone claws shattered like glass before the Blood Drinker with a single blow.

"Ah!" Blood Disciple screamed in agony, then stared incredulously at his shattered claws, saying: This is impossible! Impossible! The Blood God's blessing couldn't be this fragile?

Russell laughed loudly: "You dare to show off in front of me? Prepare to die."

After saying that, Russell pounced on him.

At this point, he was no longer afraid. Although the opponent's defenses were very strong, the Blood Drinker wanted to overcome them.

Russell rushed to the Bloodthirsty and raised the Blood Drinker to chop off his head.

The Blood Clan member was shocked and hurriedly raised another bone claw to block, but the result was the same: the bone claw shattered into pieces.

The Bloodthirsty screamed again and desperately retreated, but Russell wouldn't give him a chance to escape. He swung the Blood Drinker and struck the Bloodthirsty in the chest.

This time, the Bloodthirsty could only block with his arm, but the equally sharp Blood Drinker severed his thick arm, and the Bloodthirsty let out another shrill scream.

Russell swiftly severed the Bloodthirsty's arms and legs.

He placed one foot on the Blood Disciple's chest and patted the skull with the Blood Drinker, saying: "The Blood God deceived you. Let me send you to see him."

"No..." With a flick of his wrist, the Blood Drinker severed the Blood Disciple's skull from his neck.

System notification: The host has slain a "Blood Fiend" and gained the power of faith.

"Blood followers are the Blood God's most loyal servants. Killing them will not only reward you with faith power, but also with an additional reward: the 'Loyalty Medal'."

Russell frowned deeply. The system's rewards were too meager; killing a Blood Apprentice only yielded such a small reward.

Just as Russell was complaining about the system, the system spoke again.

"The Medal of Loyalty is a special item that can only be obtained by slaying the most loyal servants of an evil god and by Chaos Space Marines. It cannot be obtained by slaying demons or mortal believers. The Medal of Loyalty can be exchanged for skills and equipment."

Russell was startled and exclaimed involuntarily: "Then this is a good thing!"

However, what he couldn't understand was why killing the Chaos Mortal Believers didn't grant him the blessing, since these people had also received the blessing of the evil god.

Just as Russell was lost in thought, several city defense cavalrymen riding silver-white mechanical warhorses galloped over.

"The captain is a Radiant Warrior!" a mechanical knight said.

The captain of the mechanical knights glanced at him and said, "He killed Hulk. It seems he is the true King of Gladiators. Let's go check on you. You stay here."

Three mechanical cavalrymen approached Russell.

Russell looked up at the three mechanical knights and couldn't help but exclaim: "Damn, they're so cool!"

The lead mechanical knight rode a 2-meter-tall bionic mechanical warhorse, its entire body silver-white with a sharp single horn mounted on its head.

From a distance, these warhorses look almost identical to real warhorses; only when you get closer can you tell that they are made of steel.

The knights on horseback were even more dashing, each one covered in curved plate armor, with a huge wing on their helmet and wielding a lightning halberd.

The Thunder Halberd is entirely silver-white, with electric arcs constantly flowing across its surface. These arcs are designed to stun enemies unexpectedly.

The captain of the mechanical knights pressed a button on his wrist, and the mask popped open automatically.

"Radiant Warrior?"

Russell nodded and said: I am the Sun Warrior, and this is my employer, Sahara.

"It's very dangerous here now. The thugs have almost taken over the city. You need to evacuate."

Russell shook his head and said, "Let my employer leave first. I need to help you defeat the thugs."

The captain of the mechanical knights was overjoyed and said: That's wonderful! You are a powerful warrior. With your help, we can achieve victory even faster.

Russell looked at his mechanical warhorse: "I just wonder if I could ride this thing? It looks so cool."

The mechanical knight captain glanced at Russell's physique and asked: How much do you weigh?

Russell pondered for a moment and said: "About six hundred catties."

"That's too heavy. It doesn't have enough kinetic energy to carry you. Even if you ride it, it will quickly become a dead object due to excessive kinetic energy consumption."

Russell chuckled awkwardly and said, "Never mind then, I'll just run there!"

Just as they were talking, a huge wild boar king ran out of the arena.

Russell was overjoyed and said: Now I have a mount.
