The strongest astral army in Warhammer 40K

Chapter 29 "Overlord Body"

The Kadian warriors held advantageous positions, relentlessly firing deadly lasers at the orcs, killing one orc shooter after another.

The orc warriors have launched three charges, all of which have been repelled.

"Advance slowly and force the orcs back!" Russell shouted as he fired his gun. He was a good shot and could kill any reckless orc boy with each shot.

The system's voice kept ringing out as we continuously acquired Great Muscle Fragments.

The Kadian warriors advanced slowly, providing mutual fire support, forcing the orcs to retreat one after another.

"Captain Russell, what's the situation on the battlefield?"

“We have the situation under control. The orcs are retreating, and it’s only a matter of time before we defeat them.”

"Captain Russell, you did a great job."

As the Kadian warriors pushed their lines further and further, the orcish lines became increasingly irregular and were on the verge of collapse.

Even Russell felt that victory was within reach, so the shadow of his defeat in the one-on-one duel was swept away.

At this point, Russell became timid again. He should have launched a full-scale attack; a single charge would have been enough to break through the orcs' defenses.

However, Russell was too wary of the orcs' melee abilities and never dared to issue the order to attack.

This undoubtedly gave the orcs an opportunity to reorganize.

A large orc joined the battle, which greatly boosted the morale of the orcs.

Orcish big men are the elite units of the orcs. Above the orcish big men are the "war bosses." Theoretically, the war bosses are the highest leaders of the orcs, but it's not so simple, because war bosses are also divided into strong and weak. Weak war bosses naturally have to obey the orders of strong war bosses.

Each of these orc giants was nearly five meters tall, clad in heavy plate armor covering their entire bodies, and wielded heavy weapons such as giant axes and grenade launchers. Their combat capabilities were comparable to those of the Astartes.

Most orcs are not very smart and just charge and fight recklessly. The big orc is definitely an exception. Although they are also irritable and easily angered, they are good at seizing opportunities on the battlefield.

This time, the big orc organized two hundred fully armed orc warriors to counterattack and defeat the enemy. Instead of attacking rashly, it waited for a good opportunity.

These shrimps seem quite cunning; they didn't launch a full-scale attack when they had a huge advantage. This undoubtedly put the big orc in a dilemma. If he forced a charge, they would face the strongest attack; if he didn't charge, their complete rout was only a matter of time.

This was indeed an overreaction by the orc big man. Even if Russell launched a full-scale attack, his two hundred orc warriors could not change the situation on the battlefield, and the orcs' defeat was inevitable.

In the end, the big orc made a decision: it would charge forward and try to defeat the enemy, even if it failed. Orcs never feared death; they only cared about exhilarating battles.

"Roar!" The giant orc roared and led his orc warriors in a charge.

"Look, Captain, that's a big orc!" a Kadian warrior introduced to Russell.

This was the first time Russell had ever seen such massive orcs in person, and he couldn't help but marvel at them. What kind of monsters were these orcs? How did they all grow up to be so strong? Humans would have no chance of surviving in this universe without the Space Marines.

"Don't waste bullets! Wait for the orc warriors to get close and use grenades on them. Hold off the orc shooters with all your might and don't let them charge up!" Russell roared, directing the men.

Seeing the orc warriors launch their charge, the orc shooting boys also jumped out from their cover and rushed forward.

Laser bullets were aimed at the orc boys and fired, and rows and rows of orcs shot down the boys.

In contrast, neither the giant orc nor the orc warriors fired a single laser at them.

This led to a strange situation: the orc warriors charged forward, and the orc archers were almost all shot down.

"Ready, stun grenades."

A stun grenade is a type of bomb that can cause dizziness or stun.

When the orc giant was still fifty meters away from the Kadian warrior.

Dozens of stun grenades were thrown over, and the violent explosions left the orc warriors disoriented and unable to charge forward. Even the big orc was affected; he felt his ears ringing, was dizzy, and couldn't find his way around.

There's nothing better for dealing with these big, goofy guys than grenades; he and his good buddy Kayans had already used this method before.

While the orc warriors were disoriented, dozens more explosive grenades were thrown over.

With a deafening roar, orc warriors were blasted into the air. An explosive grenade rolled down to the crotch of the giant orc, and after another loud bang, the five-meter-tall orc was knocked to the ground.

Upon seeing this, Russell was overjoyed and roared: "Destroy them!"

The Kadian warriors swarmed forward, giving the orc warriors no chance to stand up.

Just as the giant orc was about to stand up, Russell raised the Bloodthirster in his hand and chopped off its head.

Calm descended upon the jungle; the fierce battle had finally ended.

The orcs were utterly defeated, and the Cadian Legion achieved a complete victory. This battle was a true growth experience for Russell; he had undergone a transformation. It made him fully realize the difference between the Cadia Commando and the Cadian Legion. As a battlefield commander, he should not act like a brute who only knows how to charge recklessly.

There was another discovery that made Russell even happier.

System prompt: The host already possesses ten "Great Muscle Warriors" and can synthesize one "Overlord Body". Synthesize?

Russell, unable to hide his joy, whispered: Synthesize.

System notification: Invincible Body Synthesis.

"The host's height increased by 0.1 centimeters, and the density, hardness, and strength of the muscles also increased."

"Captain Russell, how's the battle going?"

"We have wiped out all the orcs and are now hunting down the fleeing ones."

Commander Borg, far away at the outpost, was overjoyed and said: "Very good, Captain Russell, but the orc corpses must be disposed of properly. Remember not to let a single orc escape."

"Received, Commander Borg. I have ordered the warriors of Kadian to conduct a thorough search to ensure that not a single orc escapes."

After the call ended, Russell relayed Commander Borg's orders to the captains of the Kadian warriors: they should immediately lead their squads into the depths of the jungle to search for the orcs.

Of course, Russell wasn't going to sit idly by with dozens of men searching for orcs.

The battle against the orcs on the ground has yielded initial victories, but the situation in space is not optimistic. These savage orcs are desperate to break through the Imperial Navy's blockade and land on the ground to have a good fight with the humans.
