The strongest astral army in Warhammer 40K

The giant python wanted to swallow Aksu whole.

Facing the giant python's gaping maw, Aksu roared: Come on!

The scene of the Terminator being swallowed did not occur. Instead, a squad of Arbitrators appeared around Aksu, raining down explosives into the giant python's mouth.

The violent explosion caused the giant python to retreat in pain.

The Arbitrators' squad focused all their firepower on the giant python's body, where huge wounds appeared intermittently, only to heal rapidly.

The enraged python could only retaliate by constantly swinging its massive tail, but the Arbitrators team was extremely agile and easily dodged the python's attacks. Some Terminators were unable to dodge in time and were knocked away.

Thus, the two sides reached a stalemate.

Russell growled, "The Emperor's Blessing!" He activated his five-second "True Man" skill and began rapidly approaching the giant python.

"Are you crazy? Get back here!" a Terminator shouted.

He saw a Star Guardian soldier charging forward recklessly, trying to stop him, but Russell ignored him and continued charging forward.

Russell quickly rushed to the giant python's side, raised the Blood Drinker with both hands, and slashed at the python's body with all his might.

Logically speaking, Russell should never have been able to break through the giant python's scales, but now he could. This area, which had been hit countless times by the slug gun, had quickly recovered the strength of the scales but had not fully recovered.

The Blood Drinker slashed deep into the python's body, and a strange thing happened: Russell was unable to pull the Blood Drinker out.

An Arbitrator warrior rushed over, grabbed Russell, and threw him backward.

The blood drinker frantically sucked the giant python's blood, while the venom of the three-faced lion scorpion also took effect.

The python suddenly felt unwell and began to frantically roll its body in an attempt to shake off the Blood Drinker, but no matter how hard it tried, it could not get rid of it.

Aksu charged forward once again, raising his power axe and bringing it down.

To his surprise, a huge gash appeared on the python's body, and it would never heal.

Gradually, the giant python lost its ability to regenerate, and countless pieces of flesh were blasted off. Finally, the giant python could no longer withstand the onslaught and tried to escape.

Several Terminators blocked its path.

The giant python finally fell, its enormous corpse lying across the battlefield.

Russell was dazed and confused after being thrown to the ground, and struggled to get up.

System notification: Slay a thousand-year-old giant python and obtain the "Soul of the Giant Python".

The "Soul of the Python" grants the host the power of a giant python for one second, and can only be used once per day.

Russell was so happy he almost fainted. He never expected such good fortune to fall into his lap. Just how powerful was the giant python? He had witnessed it easily defeat the Terminator, and he was even saying that he could easily defeat the Terminator Space Marine in just one second.

A lot can be done in a second. Russell could easily unleash two slashes, enough to instantly kill any powerful creature.

After a careful search, Russell finally found his treasured weapon, the Blood Drinker.

This time, the giant python had lost its life force, and he easily pulled out the Blood Drinker. He felt that the Blood Drinker seemed to have changed; it had become larger and heavier than before.

The reason the giant python was killed so quickly this time was entirely due to the Blood Drinker's frantic absorption of the python's blood, which rapidly reduced the python's regenerative abilities, and the poison also played a significant role.

With the giant python dealt with, the war was finally over.

"My lord, I would like to request your help in clearing out the snake-people stronghold deep in the cave?" Yokozuna said to Aksu.

Aksu directly refused him, saying: "I don't have that much time to waste. You'll have to do the rest yourself."

Yokozuna was prepared, but he hadn't expected Aksu to agree.

"But how am I supposed to get the Three-Faced Lion Scorpion's venom after you leave?"

Aksu thought for a moment and said: If you need it, you can call for support, and I will send Terminators here to help you.

Yokozuna could only nod helplessly.

Those who are not of our kind will surely have different hearts. Every human understands this principle, and Aksu, as a warrior of a hundred years, naturally understands it even more clearly. He can help the demi-humans solve the problem of the snake people, but he does not intend to do so. He always has a principle when dealing with demi-humans: to use them, but also to restrain them.

Bertrand Russell was engrossed in writing in his diary, a habit and a hobby of his.

This time, he recorded almost everything that happened on 52A, especially the days he was locked up.

After finishing his diary, with nothing to do, he could only sit there and let his mind wander.

His gains on planet 52A were quite substantial: the Wings of Etherealization, the Power of Restoration, and the Soul of the Giant Python. The Soul of the Giant Python, in particular, was incredibly lucky to have acquired. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but smile.

Aside from the happy things, all that's left are the unhappy things.

The moment he was locked up, he thought he was going to die. Very few people can survive under the judge's command. Fortunately, the misunderstanding was cleared up and he was lucky enough to escape with his life.

This incident also taught him a profound lesson: he was a person with a system, and he couldn't just die at the hands of the judge.

…………

When Russell and his team arrived in orbit around Zalaka's planet, a massive siege was underway below.

The main force of this attack was none other than the infamous "Krieg Death Legion" of the Empire!

Rumors from outsiders suggest that the massive rebellion on this planet was caused by the tithe. On the surface, it seems that the governor of the Zalaka sector suddenly refused to pay the tithe for some unknown reason, and not only that, he also sent a fleet to attack the "black ships" in orbit.

Tithing is the cornerstone of Imperial rule. Any sector that openly refuses to pay tithes is considered to be in rebellion. The High Lords of the Empire would naturally not allow such a thing to happen. Moreover, their attack on the Black Ships, fleets with mysterious missions, is not something to be trifled with.

This time, the Imperial High Lords quickly reached a consensus and immediately mobilized a large army from the surrounding area to besiege the planet Zalaka. Just then, a Krieg Death Legion was fighting nearby.

The Imperial high command underestimated the strength of Zalaka, causing the Krieg Death Legion to struggle. The Empire was forced to send reinforcements, with the Cadian Legion, the Armageddon Steel Legion, and others arriving one after another.

Not only that, the imperial high command also suspected that this place had been corrupted by chaos, and the Demon Tribunal and the Alien Tribunal both sent a Grand Inquisitor here.

What Russell and his colleagues didn't know was that an epic battle was about to unfold.
