The strongest astral army in Warhammer 40K

Chapter 15 Steel Legion vs. Insects

Once you get past Licat, the other bugs aren't very wary.

…………

They finally saw the hatching pool.

Calling it a pool is not accurate; it should be called a "sea".

An endless green ocean, filled with viscous liquid, constantly churning and bubbling, like a giant machine.

One by one, gargoyles flew out of the pools of corruption, and countless knife-like insects crawled out from within.

Giant warrior insects were also continuously produced from it.

Three enormous hive overlords roamed back and forth in the hatching pool.

The enormous overlord of the insect hive is about ten meters tall, and its carapace is jet black and gleams.

"Beep beep beep beep beep." The sensor in the detective captain's hand beeped.

Then a huge meteor fell from the sky.

Seeing the meteor fall, the scout captain said in a deep voice: Long live the Emperor.

Commissar Kane told the captain, "When you see a shooting star falling from the sky, all you need to do is say 'Long live the Emperor' to save your life."

It was obvious that Commissar Kane had deceived them, and perhaps they knew they had been deceived.

The Destroyer missile landed in the hatching pool, and after a huge explosion, flames rose up, instantly evaporating hundreds of thousands of Blade Worms and millions of Splitter Worms, as well as the Scout Squad.

After the explosion, the Zerg hive overlord let out a deafening roar.

This was the order to attack, and swarms of knife-like insects launched their assault.

The enraged Zerg overlord has issued a command to devour the planet.

A mushroom cloud rose into the sky.

Looking at the mushroom cloud, Commissar Kane's expression became very complicated, showing both guilt and determination.

A team of 100 people is moving forward.

This hundred-man squad consists entirely of heavily armored infantry.

They had gleaming armor, sharp longswords, and sturdy iron shields.

These men were the second wave of suicide squads sent by Commissar Kane, and their strategic objective was to intercept the Blade Worms.

Such heavily armored formations of 100 men were set up every 100 meters.

"Hold on!" the centurion said calmly, looking at the surging horde of worms.

The sword worms collided instantly with the heavily armored phalanx. The battle-hardened heavy infantrymen raised their shields and slammed them into the sword worms.

Dozens of knife-like insects were knocked away, and other knife-like insects instantly took their place.

The sharp longsword pierced towards the knife-wielding insects.

Green blood splattered as countless knife worms were pierced through their soft abdomens and died on the spot.

The hundred-man squad was ordered to fight to the death and not retreat, so they stood firmly in place like rocks in the waves.

"Archers, prepare!" the general of the second line of defense shouted.

The second line of defense was manned by crossbowmen, deployed by Commissar Kane.

The task of the heavy infantry phalanx is to divide the enemy, while the task of the archers is to eliminate the enemy.

As the Zerg drew ever closer, the officer roared, "Release!"

Tens of thousands of crossbowmen instantly unleashed their bolts, a barrage of arrows raining down on the swarm of insects.

The crossbow bolts dealt a heavy blow to the Blade Insects, leaving the ground littered with their corpses.

Only a handful of knife-like insects remained, and then the spearmen came to meet them.

"go ahead!"

The spears, gleaming with a cold light, attacked the remaining blade insects like a forest.

Countless knife-like insects were pierced on the spot.

The slaughter went very smoothly, and the Zerg suffered heavy losses. Without strong unit support, the Zerg would surely be defeated today.

A licart descended from the sky into the heavily armored infantry formation.

"Hiss!" After a strange cry, Licarta flailed his front paws from side to side.

Several heavily armored infantrymen raised their shields to block, but were knocked to the ground by Licat's immense force.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the knife insects rushed into the heavily armored infantry formation, swinging their forepaws wildly left and right. Although the heavy armor provided excellent defense, it was no match for the sheer number of enemies.

With Licatt's help, the Blade Worms overwhelmed one heavily armored infantry phalanx after another.

"Spearmen, advance!"

Tens of thousands of spearmen rushed forward and blocked the archers.

"Fire!" The crossbow bolts rained down again, blocking the first attack of the knife worms, but the knife worms behind them were already surging in like a tide.

"Kill!" The spearman thrust his spear with all his might.

The sharp spears pierced and killed any of the knife-like insects that dared to approach.

The combination of crossbow bolts and spears surprisingly became an insurmountable defensive line for the sword worms.

The number of dead knife worms increased, and their losses became increasingly severe. A few Licats, no longer satisfied with the situation, decided to try their old tricks again, rushing into the enemy camp and hacking wildly.

Unfortunately, this time it encountered spearmen.

Licatt's abdomen could not withstand the sharp spears; some were wounded and fled quickly, while others were stabbed to death.

One lucky Ricard charged into the spear formation, intending to wreak havoc everywhere, but the spears thrusting from all directions gave him no chance to maneuver and he was killed on the spot.

The fierce battle lasted for half an incense stick's time. The swarm of insects could no longer break through the spear formation, while the corpses of the insects had piled up like mountains.

The warrior insects hiding behind could no longer hold back and charged madly towards the spear formation.

Like an invincible bull, the thick array of spears was actually cracked by a warrior insect.

No matter how hard the spearmen tried, they couldn't pierce the armor on the back of the warrior insect.

Even the crossbow bolts fired by the archers had no effect on the carapace on the back of the samurai insects, and the bolts bounced off without a trace.

The warrior insects slashed wildly left and right, tearing open the spear formation. The sword insects swarmed in and engaged in a fierce melee with the spearmen.

"Woo, woo, woo," the horn sounded, and a troop of heavily armored cavalry emerged from the rear of the formation.

This knightly order numbered around two hundred men; they were the most renowned knightly order in the world.

"Star Knight".

The Star Knights possess the richest fortune, the best armor, and the finest weapons.

The Star Knights commander didn't waste any words; he simply waved his musket, and two hundred heavily armored knights charged fearlessly toward the Warrior Insects.

The warrior insect also sensed the danger and quickly curled up, hoping to use its carapace to block the enemy cavalry's charge.

With a loud clang, the sharp spear pierced the armor of the warrior insect, the immense force breaking the spear in two, and the warhorse uncontrollably crashed into the warrior insect.

Ma Shuo's thrusts were not as powerful as the charge of a warhorse; a heavily armored warhorse at full speed was as powerful as a cannonball.

The warrior beetle was knocked over, revealing its soft abdomen and sturdy thorax.

The knights who followed closely quickly found the insect's weakness.

Several sharp maces mercilessly pierced the abdomen of the samurai insect.

The samurai insect let out a piercing scream and then fell silent.

Of course, some warrior insects were not killed by the piercing, which gave them a chance to fight back, and all the creatures that dared to approach were killed.
