As long as you die, you are invincible, but in 40K

In front of him was a corridor leading to the center. When he stepped on it, he could clearly feel the pulsation brought by countless complex lines and rotating gears.

The reciprocating friction of machinery, the collision of metals, and the dull sound of heavy components.

Zhang Ge seemed to be in a beating mechanical heart at this moment.

When I came to the cockpit, there was no driver's seat as I had imagined. In the center of the hall made of all metal, a scabbard stood quietly. Its shape was exactly the same as Ascalon's scabbard.

Zhang Ge was speechless, and there was no need for further communication at this moment.

He raised his sword, pointed it downward, and thrust it into its sheath.

In the dark bottom nest, when the wave came, a sudden buzzing sound appeared.

The sound was as loud as the wriggling sound caused by the friction between flesh and blood.

From the Titan's body, from the mixed sounds of its engines, this hum spread out.

Each of its parts began to move, as if they had transformed from some mechanical structure into the muscles of a huge entity, rubbing against each other and making a metallic hum.

The right arm connected to the Plasma Incinerator was tilted slightly downward.

Immediately afterwards, countless dark red blood gushed out from the connection.

The sword that slays dragons is also a sword stained with dragon blood.

Ascalon, on the Titan's right arm, slowly took shape with the help of the energy system that was supposed to be used to fight the Incinerator. The blood surged and covered it, solidifying the black sword into substance and connecting it to the right arm. From time to time, dark green lightning could be seen flowing.

Zhang Ge took advantage of this moment to raise his vision countless times higher to look at the waves in the distance.

He suddenly understood the sentence.

Sometimes, tiny humans are simply unable to fight against natural disasters. For example, when a storm rages, all you can do is escape.

But once you step onto a Titan, you can defeat it.

Now, I am the wave.

Before the elevator started, Titan took a step forward, and below, the high-ranking priest who had not dared to look back because of his own mistake finally saw the magnificent creation again.

Because this step was passing over their heads, under the dark shadow that enveloped everyone, the whistling sound of the gears was clearly audible.

When this step landed, a dull metallic sound that tore at the eardrums occurred along with the shaking of the ground. Just when the people below had time to notice that the weapon on Titan's right arm had suddenly been replaced, he took the next step.

Just as the second step, which was extremely fast, was completed, the third step was taken, followed by the fourth step, and the fifth step. Amidst the endless vibrations, the Titan's speed became faster and faster.

He even began to lean forward and run.

Unlike the waves that covered everything, the War Titan who took a step forward and started running was like an advancing metal mountain. The building ceramic steel in front of him was no different from a thin layer of wood chips. Any obstacles in his way were easily torn apart by the War Titan's hard shell.

The gyroscopes and gravity stabilizers spun madly.

Take another step, and then another step.

The slight resistance of the power operation when taking each step, and the violent vibration caused by each step hitting the ground.

Even the waves of flesh and blood stopped advancing and began to gather in the direction the Titan was heading.

But it was too late.

When he was about to reach the front of the wave, Zhang Ge raised the volcano cannon on his left arm.

In an instant, the sun shone, bringing light to the lower nest. A dazzling white light that seemed to be enough to split the sky and the earth pierced one side of the pale flesh and blood.

Before the light arrived, countless flesh tentacles had already vaporized, and when it came into direct contact with it, it could not even maintain its basic form.

The extremely high temperature is enough to break the atomic structure, and even the originally solid atomic nuclei are split into quark-gluon soup under such high energy, and these pure white plasmas splash everywhere.

The next moment after the light passed unhindered, a series of deafening and violent explosions sounded. These were explosions caused by the huge energy released by the cooling of the quark-gluon soup.

From left to right, the ceramic and steel buildings that blocked the shooting path were torn apart, and pale waves of flesh and blood were broken up and annihilated by the light and explosion.

As the light that melted the darkness gradually dimmed, a fan-shaped burning belt became a new lighting source, and countless orange-red liquid ceramic steels that were saved from vaporization and simply dissolved into molten steel overflowed.

It was at this moment that the collision between the Titan and the wave occurred.

Countless tumbling flesh-whipped bees that had reached the Titan's waist swarmed over, overflowing every inch of the contact surface and pulling at every point of leverage.

Obstructed by these flesh tentacles clinging to every inch of the shell, Zhang Ge felt blocked, as if he was really in the ocean, in the midst of a storm, fighting against resistance from all sides.

However, stepping on the flesh that was lush under his feet, countless flesh and blood were crushed with the next step, leaving only the squeezed flesh mixed with blood in its place. The cold metal squeezed and broke through the countless flesh and blood that blocked its way, and waves of blood gushed out of the top of the pale wave as the tissues and organs were torn apart by the operating mechanical structure.

Locking his pace and amplifying his strength, Titan braved the waves and broke through the gradually piling up flesh and worms, step by step, until the rectangular metal core was right in front of him. He raised the long sword in his right arm high and slammed it down.

One sword cut countless tentacles in half and broke the metal core in between. A terrifying but dying scream came from every tentacle and from the mouth of every worm.

But this final scream quickly faded away.

The waves subsided.

ps: This is the fourth update today, I have run out of energy, remember to burn some votes to keep me company, muah.

Chapter 62 Log

The countless flesh whiskers that were originally surging wildly lost their vitality bit by bit. They collapsed and piled up, forming piles of pale flesh and blood.

After carefully scanning several times and confirming that there were no signs of any surviving alien life, Zhang Ge controlled the side of the sword and picked out the two pieces of metal that were split in half by the sword from the mountain of flesh. At the same time, he used the detector to search for the remains of the killing can.

After finding the latter, the Titan walked over and pushed aside the fleshy tendrils that were wrapped around its remains.

The torn parts, the torn armor, and even the main body had been crushed beyond recognition.

Perhaps after he left, these surging flesh tentacles had no interest in the iron shell of the killing can at all, but even if they were not actively attacked, simply being placed among countless flesh and blood squeezing each other was no different from being thrown into a crusher.

After hesitating for a while, Zhang Ge finally gave up the idea of ​​moving his remains. After taking a few steps back, he aimed one of the two triple-mounted laser incinerators on his shoulders downwards.

Reducing the output power, three crimson beams were cast down, and the temperature, which was extremely gentle for a Titan, slowly burned the wreckage red, and then melted it into liquid along with the ceramic steel on the ground, allowing the two to mix together.

Born to fight, died because of fighting, and finally buried by someone strong enough, perhaps this is a peaceful enough ending for a killing can. Let it blend into the ground where it stood while fighting until the last moment. There is no need to disturb it again.

After the brief funeral, Zhang Ge confirmed that there was nothing else missing, then controlled the subject to draw out the sword, allowing the will to return to the body.

Although it was a bit regretful to return the Ascalon to its sheath, Zhang Ge, who had already prepared himself mentally in the armory, did not think much about anything else. If he didn't die, he didn't die. There were plenty of opportunities.

Touching the tip of the scabbard standing in the center of the Titan in front of him, Zhang Ge praised:

"Olivia, well done."

As the words fell, a holographic projection appeared. It was the appearance of the girl. She controlled her body size to the extent that her head was just under Zhang Ge's palm. She squinted her eyes and put on a smile to accept the compliment.

Looking at the other party's enjoyment, Zhang Ge asked with some doubt:

"Can you really feel it like this?"

Olivia nodded and answered seriously:

"Hmm, your palms are very warm."

"That's it."

Warmth is a precious word in this universe.

Zhang Ge, who originally just felt the scabbard was a little uncomfortable and wanted to retract it, touched it for a while longer.

However, this rare moment of peace did not last long. After all, there were other people rushing in this direction. After withdrawing his hand from Olivia's reluctant gaze, Zhang Ge said:

"After I leave, just stand still. Don't pay attention to what those priests... those red-robed people say."

The less response she gets and the greater the distance, the higher Olivia's status will be.

Zhang Ge did not intend to publicly reveal that he was the one who controlled the Titan with Ascalon.

For him now, even from the perspective of not seeking death, he should not do that. Once the Mechanicus discovered that the sword was a holy relic, they would definitely not mind finding a way to kill him, the holder, to prevent any accidents.

Soon, after giving some instructions, Zhang Ge left the Titan. Outside, Amelia, who had arrived before others using a jumping backpack, had been waiting for a while.

After waving his hand to reject her plan to fly up and grab him away, Zhang Ge found a high point on a nearby meat mountain and jumped there.

Although the piled up meat mountain still has a considerable height difference compared to the Titan's back, it is made up of layers of flesh after all, and is no longer a ceramic steel ground, so there is basically no risk of injury for Zhang Ge's physique.

In mid-air, Zhang Ge fell under the influence of gravity and then landed on the ground, with most of his body buried between the layers of flesh whiskers.

To be honest, putting aside the racial knights, just talking about the touch of the corpse, these flesh whiskers are quite nice to touch.

When Zhang Ge used his hands to pull himself out, he felt the texture of these things... except that they were not very warm, they were similar to Amelia's cheek that he had touched in the trench before. Moreover, when his body was inserted into them, there was a perfect soft and wrapping feeling.

Amelia, who had just flown in, saw Zhang Ge seemed to be recalling something and asked:

"what happened?"

"No, nothing. Just looking at that piece of metal and wondering what might be inside it."

After decisively pointing his finger at the two large metal blocks beside him, Zhang Ge completed the pushing of the pot without changing his expression.

Although her intuition told her that it was not that simple, Amelia still chose to believe Zhang Ge instead of her intuition. She did not dwell on this topic any further and said:

"Really? Then go and take a look."

Zhang Ge naturally nodded in agreement, and the two of them quickly approached the thing.

After getting closer, Zhang Ge discovered that this was not a block of metal, but a rectangular, large metal cabin with thick outer walls.

Seeing this, Amelia opened her palm to let the greatsword enter her hand, and at the same time stretched out her other arm to stop Zhang Ge, giving him a questioning look.

Although waiting for the Mechanicus's vanguards to arrive safely is one option, on the other hand, taking a little risk and choosing to search for possible treasures before the Mechanicus arrives is obviously also a reasonable option.

After all, they couldn't do anything to Amelia and Zhang Ge when they were alive. Could it be that they were stronger when they were dead? The worm people don't have a big guy sitting on the golden throne.

Thinking of this, Zhang Ge said:

"Let's go in first."

Hearing this, Amelia withdrew her hand that was blocking him and walked a little ahead of Zhang Ge. The two of them entered the metal cabin one after the other.

After entering, the two searched various compartments of the cabin and found no attacks, which made Zhang Ge slightly disappointed again.

At the deepest part of the cabin, the two found a terminal. Although the operating text on the device itself was incomprehensible, the screen displayed a bilingual transaction log. The screen itself could be swiped directly by touch, and the logs could be pulled up to an earlier time.

One of the two languages ​​is naturally composed of these incomprehensible characters, and the other is the common language of the empire.

The closest date to the present was three years ago, which was not too long ago, but the earliest one was hundreds of years ago. This time span was almost a lifetime even for most nobles.

There are so many logs. If Zhang Ge were to read them all, he would definitely not be able to catch up. He said to Amelia:

"Amelia, please read it once and then repeat the more important information to me."

The latter nodded, walked to the screen, and slid the screen at a speed that was difficult for ordinary people to follow, and lines of text flashed by quickly.

ps: Guess four patterns: the first one is ∏ with a seagull sealing it below and two horizontal lines inside, the second one is a thumb pointing to the right, the third one is a circle with the word "appreciation" in it, and the fourth one is a double-headed speaker in a rectangular frame. What is the answer?

Chapter 63: Potion

Soon, Amelia finished reading the above content. As she and Zhang Ge talked, the whole picture of the matter appeared before their eyes.

Simply put, this thing was specially placed in Akaolan by the worm people. It is a bio-manufacturing device and a medicine machine. The former is used to spread the worm people's tentacles here, and the latter is used to bribe the upper nobles.

For a long time after they were discovered, they produced a rejuvenation potion that could help the nobles extend their already long lifespan by one hundred to two hundred years. These potions were regularly provided to the nobles of Acoran without asking for any compensation.

Dichao? If all the people in Dichao died, would that be considered a reward? Wouldn't that be another good thing?

Of course, neither side is stupid.

The nobles actually only consumed half of the rejuvenation potion on themselves. While trying to hide it from the worm people—although they failed—they used the other half to exchange for a large amount of resources.

These resources were even sufficient to marginalize the local Mechanicus in political struggles, while using part of them to arm a group of well-equipped PDFs.

Both sides were confident. The worm people were confident in their millennia-long planning, while the nobles were confident that they could control any unexpected situation with their own hives and a strong armed force.

However, in the end, the preparations made by the two confident parties were not used. The Worm Man's machine was destroyed by a "small accident", and the noble's PDF was thrown into the bottomless pit of resistance to chaos. It has to be said that such dramatic things always happen from time to time.

Soon, in this metal cabin, Zhang Ge and Amelia found the rejuvenation potion that was supposed to be delivered for the next batch.

Just as Zhang Ge was about to destroy the potions with a plasma, Amelia patted him on the shoulder and said:

"and many more."
