The strongest astral army in Warhammer 40K

Chapter 83 An unexpected gain

"Retreat!" Russell roared.

The Cadian warriors fled in panic, and the war boss, with a grotesque laugh, fired a grenade at Russell and his men.

With a loud bang, Russell and more than a dozen Cadian warriors were blown into the air.

When Russell fell, he was almost in a semi-conscious state.

The Warlord fired several large-caliber howitzers in succession, blasting the Astragalus troops into a frenzy. The few remaining Krieg guards launched a desperate charge against the Warlord.

Their charge was futile; the war boss simply swung his steel claws and the Krieg guards were torn to shreds.

Just as the Orc warlord was slaughtering the Krieg guards, Vangret rushed out from the side.

The reason this orc war leader is here is mainly to escape Vangret's pursuit.

If you look closely, you can see that this orc war leader has been through a brutal battle, as his armor is torn in several places.

Seeing Vangre charge towards him, the orc war leader roared and went to meet him.

Russell struggled to his feet and turned around to look, only to find that there were hardly any Astragalus soldiers still standing.

A surge of rage welled up within him, the flames of revenge burning in his chest, and a voice echoed in his mind: "Kill it, avenge our fallen brothers!"

Russell's eyes gradually turned blood red, and an unknown power filled his limbs. Khorne's blessing silently descended upon him, or more accurately, the power transmitted by the Blood Drinker.

"Roar!" Russell also let out a wild roar and rushed towards the War Boss.

As he charged, the Blood Drinker emitted an eerie red glow.

While rage gave him power, it could not make him lose his mind.

As he rushed to the side of the orc war leader, he leaped into the air and slashed at a spot where the armor was broken.

The Blood Drinker unleashed a burst of red light and then slashed deeply into the thigh of the orc war leader.

Its steel-like muscles could not stop the sharp-edged bloodsucker.

The orc war leader kicked Van Grey away, then suddenly felt a sharp pain in his leg. He turned around and was furious, swinging his steel claws at Russell.

Russell quickly released the Blood Drinker, who rolled on the ground, its massive steel claws missing their mark.

Before the War Boss could launch another attack, Van Grey charged forward again. The War Boss had no choice but to focus all his efforts on Van Grey, leaving him no time to attend to the Blood Drinker on his leg.

The Blood Drinker frantically drank the blood of the orc war leader, and soon the orc war leader actually felt an unusual fatigue, a feeling it had never experienced before.

Van Grey quickly noticed that the orc war leader had slowed down considerably. Since the enemy had slowed down, he rallied his spirits and intensified his attack, unleashing his power sword at the war leader like a storm.

In an instant, it was slashed several times, each sword inflicting a huge wound on the Orc War Chieftain. However, the Orc War Chieftain possessed an extremely abnormal regenerative ability, and it was difficult to kill it without cutting off its head, so its wounds always healed quickly.

Faced with Vangret's attacks, the orc war chief could only roar incessantly and desperately try to defend himself.

Russell, who was hiding nearby, also noticed the change in the orc war leader and decided to take a risk.

He charged at the orc war chief, then snatched the Blood Drinker from his hand and growled, "Soul of the Serpent!"

An incredibly powerful ancient force filled his entire body, and with that force, he leaped several meters into the air, wielding the Blood Drinker to slash at the neck of the orc war leader.

With the added power, the Blood Drinker was invincible; the armor on its neck could not withstand being split in two along with the head of the War Boss.

The war boss's head flew into the air, accompanied by a shower of blood. Russell immediately lost consciousness and crashed heavily onto the stone slab. Of course, at this point, he was already unconscious and no matter how much he fell, he wouldn't feel any pain.

A few days later, Russell woke up in the makeshift hospital. As soon as he regained consciousness, the system notification sounded.

System notification: The host has slain the orc leader and plundered some of its Great Muscle Fragments.

"What?" Russell exclaimed in surprise.

He was so surprised by the system's notification that he lost his composure and shouted in a crowded place.

Everyone else in the hospital gave Russell strange looks.

Russell quickly calmed down and started laughing foolishly, but then he suddenly burst into tears.

The system was incredibly generous this time, giving him 10,000 Great Muscle Fragments all at once. He had gone through tremendous effort and faced countless life-or-death situations to barely obtain 300 points.

Russell knew very well how important those 10,000 muscle-building fragments were to him; having them completely changed him, though he didn't yet know just how strong he would become.

Actually, he wasn't seriously injured and could have left as soon as he woke up, but he didn't want to leave because he wanted to see two people.

Russell got out of bed, put on his worn-out tactical armor, and picked up the Fire Kirin and the Blood Drinker.

When he picked up the Blood Drinker, he examined it carefully and found that it had changed again. The shovel head was much larger and the handle was much thicker.

Russell frowned slightly, wondering if the weapon's size was adjusting to his own. Or perhaps not? He wasn't sure yet and decided to observe it for a while longer.

Commissar Arrek was also rescued and was lying on a bed not far from Russell.

Russell glanced at Commissar Arrek and breathed a sigh of relief. In any case, the commissar was still alive, just unconscious. Since the commissar was still alive, he was at ease and turned to leave.

"Why are you here again? Is the war over?" Kayans asked Russell curiously.

Russell shook his head and said: It's not over yet!

"Then why did you come here again?"

"I was injured too, and I was unconscious for a few days. I just woke up and came to see you."

"You're injured too? What happened?"

"A grenade knocked me out, but I'm not seriously injured."

Kayans laughed: "You're really tough, you're completely unharmed after being knocked unconscious by the explosion?"

Russell chuckled and said, "If the grenade had been any closer, I probably would have lost my life."

The two chatted for a few more minutes before Russell left, as he had something more important to do.

Upon returning to his lodgings, Russell quickly removed his tactical armor, pants, and shoes, leaving him only in his underwear.

System prompt: The host has a total of [number] Large Muscle Man fragments. Do you want to synthesize "Large Muscle Man" now?

Russell whispered: Synthesize!

System notification: Congratulations, host, for synthesizing 1030 Big Muscle King.

System prompt: Does the host wish to synthesize "Unrivaled Body"?

Russell, unable to hide his excitement, exclaimed: "Synthesize!"

System notification: Congratulations on synthesizing 103 Invincible Armor.
